Chapter Eighty-Nine: Establishing a Center

Chapter 89 is in the establishment of a center

Rong Lu knew the power of modern artillery fire, so he also chose the tactic of two breads, but fortunately, he brought a lot of people, so he had a great advantage in numbers, and the attack on the left and right sides was also not very smooth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the bannermen on both sides were not bombarded by artillery fire, the cavalry charge still could not break through the defense line organized by the pro-guard army, which was not a war of the same era at all, and the confrontation between the army with broadswords and spears and the pro-guard army, which had always had modern equipment and training, was simply self-defeating.

Looking at the cavalry that kept falling in front of him, Rong Lu knew that he was likely to choose the wrong team, which would have fatal consequences, but things had already developed to this point, and it was impossible for him to retreat. At this time, one of the generals next to him came running over and said; "You can't rush any further, we can't rush at all!"

Rong Lu raised the gun in his hand and killed this boss with one shot!

The admiral next to him and the officers of the various green battalions were shocked, it seemed that this old man was going crazy, seeing that the cavalry was already gone, the cavalry behind said that they would not rush forward at all, and Rong Lu's other troops were all changed to a defensive posture at this time, and Rong Lu knew that now was not the time to attack.

But the pro-guard army didn't mean to fight at all, and Rong Lu ordered all the troops to slowly stagger and cover the retreat!

Rong Lu glanced back when he left, the battlefield full of corpses, this battle, not even a single pro-guard soldier was killed, this fact gave Rong Lu a very big blow, he had been idle at home for too long, and he couldn't keep up with the changes in this world, it was too shocking.

Looking at the mess all over the ground, the scene of Shura's hell appeared again on the land of Huaxia, and the officer next to him asked; "My lord, what should you do with these wounded soldiers?"

Lu Yongxi said; "The duty of a soldier is to obey orders, politics has nothing to do with us, these people are very brave in good deeds, they are saying that these people are Chinese, the fault is not them, let's do our best to treat them immediately!"

Just after Rong Lu retreated, Lu Yongxi began to organize personnel to treat the wounded soldiers and clean up the battlefield, and then sent scouts to pay close attention to the movements of Rong Lu's army, as well as the movements of other flag soldiers and green battalion soldiers!

Then it will be the matter of the army staff to report the battle situation to Rong Shangqian, looking at Lu Yongxi's report, Rong Shangqian felt a little embarrassed, because he organized a counterattack against Enhua and suffered a lot of casualties, and now the doctors of the entire imperial capital division are busy, because no matter which side of the personnel is sent, they are Chinese!

Rong Shangqian looked at the sky that was about to light up, and said to Lu Yongxi, you go and rest first, I am on duty here, your brothers Lu Yongxiang and Lu Yongbao have already gone to Nanjing to receive the letter of appointment, you don't want to go to Lanzhou for the time being, and after a while, you can take this division of yours to Lanzhou to form the Fifth Army of the Pro-Guard Army!

Lu Yongxi immediately saluted a standard military salute, thank you Chief of Staff for your cultivation!

In the early morning of the second day after the war broke out in Beijing, Zhao Bingjun, who was in Nanjing, sent a telegram to the whole country and invited all Chinese and foreign media reporters to announce a major news, which shocked the whole world.

。。。。。。

When Zhao Bingjun announced these appointments, the eyes of the whole world paid attention to this ancient East, the matter came too suddenly, and they did not have enough time to react, after Zhao Bingjun read out these appointments, he did not give reporters a chance to ask questions, but immediately returned to the current historical office of the central government of the empire, which is the original governor's palace, and now it has once again been upgraded to the seat of the central government of the Chinese Empire.

At this time, a person from the army staff rushed to the front and said in front of Zhao Bingjun; "My lord, the British are marching in the direction of Zhemengxiong in the Tibetan area, and they have already fought with the outpost troops in front of us, and we don't have many troops left in Tibet now, Duan Qirui has already called to ask for the opinion of the central government, mainly to ask for money!

Zhao Bingjun is mainly in charge of the public procuratorate and law, but as the current person in charge of the central government, he knows the importance of this position, and they may not get the emperor's help in the future, at this time, as the person in charge of the central government, he must give an explanation, especially in terms of money.

Zhao Bingjun said; Give me a call to Chengdu right away!

Now the phone still has to be transferred, that is, through a base station, all the way to Chengdu, through Huangshan Mansion, Wuhan Mansion, during this period I don't know how many roads to go through, it sometimes takes half an hour to connect the call, but even this is much faster than riding a horse.

After connecting Duan Qirui's phone, Zhao Bingjun immediately asked as soon as he heard Duan Qirui's voice; "Why are you still in Chengdu? Also, did you inform your Army Chief of Staff Rong Shangqian about this? ”

On the other end of the phone, Duan Qirui said; "I have already set off, on the way to Tibet, I am talking to you on the marching phone, and the chief of staff of the Tibet operation has fully authorized us to the Chengdu Military Region, and the Wuhan Military Region will assist us if we need it."

Zhao Bingjun said that you must pay attention to the safety of telephone lines and the work of eavesdropping, you must also know what is going on in the capital!

Duan Qirui said; "The emperor has already told me, and at the same time expected that the British would not let us have a good year, and at the same time explained the source of military spending, you also know the truth that when the cannon goes off, the gold is ten thousand taels, but the emperor told me that the military expenses of this war will be on the head of the Ministry of the Interior!

Zhao Bingjun said; "The emperor means that the Ministry of Finance let Tang Shaoyi directly manage it, so he can rest assured, so you don't have to worry about this military expenditure, the Ministry of Finance of the empire still has money, and as far as I know, the money for the war treasury bonds issued last time in response to the invasion of the Russian Cossack cavalry has not been used up!"

But the mission goal assigned by the emperor, you should be clear!

Duan Qirui said; "Do I know this that land is the only means of production that can generate income forever? My Chinese empire is big, and there is not an inch of land that is superfluous! ”

Zhao Bingjun said; "Good! Just remember, Tang Shaoyi and they will be in Nanjing soon, he will contact you as soon as he arrives, take care of yourself! ”

Duan Qirui also said; "You must be very busy there, you don't have to worry, I, Duan Qirui, will always support the Ministry of the Interior! Take care! ”

Then hung up!

Then I looked at the many young people in front of me, these are students from various universities, many of them are from Nanyang, and some of them are also recruited from Hong Kong and Macau, because they have been exposed to a lot of advanced ideas in these places, so Tang Shaoyi and Zhao Bingjun have set their sights on this group of people, so many of them have not yet graduated and have been sorted out of the school by these two people and served in various departments.

At present, most of the people in the central government of the Chinese Empire are in the public security and law system, and there will definitely be a lot of manpower who have not been evacuated to Nanjing in time to evacuate from Beijing this time, so the next various departments will definitely ask for people from him, the vice premier.

Zhao Bingjun said to these in front of him; "Now is the rise of the country, at this time we will encounter a lot of difficulties, we must work together, not afraid of difficulties, together forward, especially our public security work, this is equivalent to the original basis to take root again!

Of course, the reality is also very clear, there will be people who will be assigned to other departments, but please remember that no matter where you are in you must do your best to contribute to the empire, as long as you work hard you will all have a chance to achieve your own goals in life.

Now we are preparing to welcome the various central organs that will come to Nanjing, so I announce that we will immediately begin the division of labor, set up leaders and assign tasks, so as to ensure that our government can resume operations as soon as the central organs are transferred here.

Zhao Bingjun began his political life as acting prime minister in the temporary prime minister's office, although this period was very short, but according to his recollections, this time was more precious than when he later became the official prime minister!

Tang Shaoyi is now sitting on the deck of the Zhenyuan, I don't know how the situation in Jingshi is, has the situation stabilized, is the emperor okay, is this right?

Also with him is Vice Admiral Liu Buchan, Ding Ruchang has been in Wuhan where will not come, so the current commander of the Imperial North Pacific Combined Fleet is actually named Liu Buchan, Li Hongzhang was very calm when he learned that Cixi actually cut his position as governor of Zhili, he knew that he and Emperor Guangxu were too close, but what can be done? Who let Guangxu give him what he wanted, and he still gave so much!

When he received an appointment from the central government of the Chinese Empire, that is, Zhao Bingjun, Li Hongzhang immediately agreed, and then said to Sheng Xuanhuai, who stayed in Tianjin; "You have to worry more about Tianjin's affairs! The emperor has only appointed one naval marshal, and this responsibility is so great that I can't help but be careful! ”

Sheng Xuanhuai said; "My lord, the emperor didn't let you leave Tianjin!"
