Sent Feng Guozhang away on the last journey in the memory of the world, Chang Zhenbang first took a train to Tianjin, and then arrived in Guangzhou by boat, and Tang Baichuan and Tang Baichuan formed an alliance between the two series of Zhijiang to fight against Duan Qirui, Tang Baichuan was very happy about this, and secretly mobilized Chen Jiongming's division of the seventh division in the southeast, Zhang Fakui's division of the twenty-first division in the southeast, Deng Keng's department of the third mixed brigade in the southeast, and Ye Ju's department of the fourth mixed brigade in the southeast, and secretly took the Guangdong Navy transport ship to arrive in Haizhou at night and enter the territory of Xuzhou.

Haizhou town guard Bai Wenshan's political trend is not only with Feng Guozhang, Li Chun has a very good relationship, but also coveted the land of Xuzhou for a long time, since Chang Zhenbang left Nanjing, Wang Huaiqing sent a secret room to him to assist Chang Zhenbang's military deployment, if necessary, he can even directly and Chang Zhenbang's wrong to send troops to Xuzhou, after the matter was completed, Xuzhou and Haizhou merged into Xu Hai town guard envoy to take over, he was overjoyed to hear the arrival of Chen Jiongming's department in advance.

The land of Xuzhou belongs to Jiangsu on the map, but since the Manchu Qing Dynasty martyr Zhang Xun arrived here, he took a fancy to the wealth and danger of this place, and painstakingly ran it into his own base camp, in the early years in order to restore the Manchu Qing Dynasty, repay Lafayette for his kindness from the poor, but also gathered forty battalions of the elite of the Dingwu army, now people go to the empty building, the camp is built excellently, has not been damaged, it is a good place to raise troops, and it is the most suitable place for Jiangsu to attack Anhui, However, Zhang Wensheng, the guard of Xu Hai Town, is Zhang Xun's sworn friend, after Zhang Xun's restoration failed, he secretly took refuge in Ni Sichong, the overseer of Anhui, and became a peripheral force of the Anhui system.

Since the time of Feng Guozhang, Zhang Wensheng's department has become a thorn in the side of the Jiangsu authorities, a thorn in the flesh, but the other party is a lot of people, bordering Anhui, and Ni Sichong as a backer, it is really difficult to pull it out in a short time, even if it is Feng Guozhang or Li Chun, and even now Wang Huaiqing has taken a blind eye, as long as the tax should be paid a lot, do not stir up trouble, do not make trouble, he will go, but unfortunately now Chang Zhenbang is sitting in Jiangnan, the so-called side of the couch, how can others be allowed to snore, What's more, the sleeping person is a nail household, Chang Zhenbang has long had the intention of expelling Zhang Wenshan and annexing Anhui, Wu Peifu's invitation undoubtedly hit his heart, so after Chang Zhenbang went back, the first thing he did was to send the Cantonese army trained by Chen Jiongming to the battlefield in Xuzhou, so as to verify Chen Jiongming's military strategy, and by the way, see if this army with Chen Jiongming's old department as the main backbone and Guangzhou Military Academy graduates as the backbone of the grassroots can fight.

Chen Jiongming's arrival made Bai Wenshan overjoyed, and after asking for warmth, Bai Wenshan finally couldn't help the excitement in his heart, and said: "Lord Chen Jiongming, when will we attack Xuzhou and get rid of Zhang Wenshan, the scum, for the patrol!" Chen Jiongming raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and said coldly: "Lord Bai, since this land of Xuzhou has been promised to you, it will not be given to others again, as for when to send troops to Xuzhou, is this a question you should ask?" Bai Wenshan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but be furious, Chang Zhenbang is the leader of the five southeastern provinces, but he Bai Wenshan is also the master who listens to the tune and does not listen to the Xuan, you Chen Jiongming said this, it is inevitable that he is a little too unemotional, but angry is angry, he is also an understanding person, knowing that the two divisions and two brigades brought by Chen Jiongming are the elite of the southeast, and it is by no means much stronger than the bandits. also seemed to be narrow-minded, thinking of this, he held back the anger in his chest, and said with a smile: "Lord Chen, you don't know, this Zhang Wenshan is really not a thing, when Lord Zhang Xun asked him to mobilize forty battalions of the Dingwu Army to go north to rescue the driver, this Zhang Wenshan sent forty flower pots over, and he privately sold the Dingwu Army to Ni Sichong and Duan Qirui. The little brother didn't mean to urge the adult, but the little brother was out of righteous indignation, and I hope Lord Chen will forgive me! Chen Jiongming said: "If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself!" Where is Zhang Wenshan, Chang has his own arrangements! Bai Wenshan was bored, so he had to laugh a few words, leave the quartermaster in charge, pat his ass and leave.

After Bai Wenshan left, Zhang Fakui said in a low voice: "Brother Chen, do our brothers really want to work for Chang Zhenbang?" Chen Jiongming said: "The food of the king, the worry of the loyal king." How does Lord Chang Zhenbang treat me? ”

Zhang Fakui said: "Chang Zhenbang treats us as close as relatives, asking for soldiers for soldiers, money for money, and officials for officials, which made it take me half a year to have three divisions and three brigades." Relying on this army in our hands, it is enough to create our own world. ”

Chen Jiongming glanced at Zhang Fakui, and when he saw that he was very excited, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said: "The people who ride in the car carry people's troubles, the clothes of people have people's worries, and the cannibals eat people and die. ”

Zhang Fakui said angrily: "How can a husband be so restrained and shoulder the great responsibility of the world? Brother Jiongming, do you still remember how high-spirited you used to be? ”

Chen Jiongming asked rhetorically: "In the whole world, where is the province rich in the southeast, the coast of the land, and where is the people happy in the southeast?" ”

Zhang Fakui lowered his voice again and said to Chen Jiongming: "Mr. Zhongshan sent someone to say that now Cao Zhi and Chang Jiang have united the heroes of the world to fight against Duan Qirui of the Anhui system, and this battle is bound to be protracted for a long time." In order to save the suffering of the people in the world, Mr. Zhongshan asked us to raise troops on the battlefield, and then Tang Jiyao and Lu Rongting will raise troops to respond, Hunan can go down, Guangdong can be restored, and then the old brother will be the overseer of Guangdong, the commander-in-chief of the Guangdong army, in addition to the second big man after Mr. Zhongshan, the big hero. ”

Chen Jiongming frowned unconsciously after hearing this, and said, "Isn't Mr. Sun already united with the Gan line, the direct line, and the Feng line?" How can you listen to my brother's words, Mr. Sun seems to be colluding with the Anhui family again? ”

Zhang Fakui smiled and said, "It's just double insurance!" Whether Chang Zhenbang, Cao Kun wins, or Duan Qirui wins, Mr. Sun is a meritorious hero! ”

Chen Jiongming pondered for a moment and said: "That Duan Qirui is an advocate for the unification of force, and he is also the destroyer of the temporary covenant, is he credible on his side?" Don't work in vain to make wedding clothes for others! ”

Zhang Fakui said self-deprecatingly: "Do you remember the story of the stupid donkey eating turnips? The turnip of the donkey rider is nothing but the driving force for the stupid donkey to move forward, and this damn temporary covenant is nothing more than a carrot that Mr. Zhongshan put in front of the foolish and stupid man. As long as Mr. Sun becomes the president, it doesn't matter whether the law is restored or not, after all, Mr. Zhongshan is the living temporary law, but the temporary law is not a hair of Mr. Zhongshan. ”

Chen Jiongming was taken aback and said: "Duan Qirui actually gave Mr. Sun the throne of the president. ”

Zhang Fakui smiled: "Brother, you are confused, if it is not for the throne of the president, how can Mr. Sun be willing to cooperate with him?" ”

Chen Jiongming said: "He is not afraid of lifting a stone and hitting his own feet? Mr. Sun is no more cowardly than Li Yuanhong and Xu Shichang's bare-bones commander. ”

Zhang Fakui said: "It's better to be an obedient cabinet prime minister than to be forced to step down by the direct Jiangxi Feng family, and then talk about Qirui's ability to call the wind and rain, it may not necessarily make Mr. Zhongshan proud, maybe the two cooperate with each other and suppress each other, and maybe they can put the country on the right path." ”

Chen Jiongming sighed, slowly closed his eyes, as if thinking about something, Zhang Fakui saw him pondering, and immediately persuaded him in his ear, from his past feelings of sympathy with Sun Monkey to the Jin Ge Iron Horse who worked together in the revolution, it was really a clever tongue, who knew that Chen Jiongming was listening to it, and Zhang Fakui couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart, today he said these unsightly words to Chen Jiongming, if Chen Jiongming does not follow, not only will the southeast not allow him, but Mr. Zhongshan in the southwest will never recognize him, although this China is big, But there was no place for him anymore. I couldn't help but secretly complain in my heart, and suddenly remembered Mr. Zhongshan's promise to him, after the matter was completed, he made him the head of the Guangdong branch of the Revolutionary Party, the deputy superintendent of Guangdong, and the chief of the general staff of the Guangdong army. and then led to the battle of the reverse section of the three lines of Zhigan Feng.

At this moment, Chen Jiongming suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at him, his eyes were like hooks, as if they could poke into his mind from Zhang Fakui's eyes, Zhang Fakui subconsciously took two or three steps back and said, "Chen ...... Brother Chen, what's wrong? ”

Chen Jiongming looked at him and said slowly: "Once you rebel, where does our army belong?" ”

Zhang Fakui said: "Naturally, it is Mr. Sun's revolutionary army!" However, Mr. Sun hopes that the eldest brother can play his own banner, so that he can say something weighty for you in front of Tang Jiyao and others! ”

Chen Jiongming sneered and said: "I'm afraid that if I win, I'm his person, but if I lose, I'm capricious, and I'm sorry to die!" ”

Zhang Fakui was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said: "Big brother, what does this mean, it's really puzzling, who is Mr. Sun, don't you know yet?" ”
