On September 15, Zhang Dashuai, commander-in-chief of the Zhenwei Army, issued an ultimatum to President Cao Da, saying: "This year, natural disasters are epidemic, and the people are hungry all over the wilderness. However, Mo Shen has not done anything, the battle order has been issued, and at the same time, he has marched into Fengtian, detained the Shanhaiguan train, and put an end to traffic, what is the meaning? In recent years, he has been Wu Peifu's puppet, causing public resentment; The impossibility of an armed crusade is evident from the successive defeats of the Soviet army. Before the younger brother planned to send the envoy again, the train traffic had been cut off and he was not allowed to enter Beijing. Therefore, it will be up to the plane to ask the living of the foot, and wait for the answer to the last. “

On the same day, Zhang Dashuai issued personnel orders for six armies, organizing the Feng army into six armies to enter the pass and attack the direct army. The chief and deputy commanders of the First Army were Jiang Dengxuan and Han Linchun, the chief and deputy commanders of the Second Army were Li Jinglin and Zhang Zongchang, the chief and deputy commanders of the Third Army were Zhang Xueliang and Guo Songling, the chief and deputy commanders of the Fourth Army were Zhang Zuoxiang and Ji Jinchun, the chief and deputy commanders of the Fifth Army were Wu Junsheng and Kan Chaoxi, the chief and deputy commanders of the Sixth Army were Xu Lanzhou and Wu Guangxin, and Yang Yuting was the general staff officer. Among the Feng army, Li Jinglin, Jiang Dengxuan, Han Linchun, Zhang Zongchang, and Guo Songling are known as the "Five Tiger Generals".

Its deployment was to form the first and third combined armies with the first and third armies, capture Shanhaiguan, and launch an attack on Beijing and Tianjin after Shanhaiguan had defeated the main force of the direct army. The main task of the Second Army was to launch an attack on the South Road of Rehe, in which Li Jinglin's first division attacked Chaoyang after assembling in Yixian; Zhang Zongchang's 3rd Mixed Brigade assembled near Dayaogou and then attacked the Rehe side, cooperated with Li Jinglin's troops to conquer Chaoyang, and then joined forces to advance westward, successively occupying Jianping, Chengde, Lingyuan and other places, and then joined the 1st and 3rd Coalition Armies to fight a decisive battle with the direct army at Shanhaiguan. The Fourth Army was assembled in the vicinity of Xingcheng and Suizhong as a general reserve. Another part of the troops, about one regiment or one brigade, was assembled near Jinzhou to wait for orders. The main force of the Fifth Army was assembled at a convenient transportation point in the front to be dispatched, and some troops remained in various key areas of Heilongjiang to consolidate the rear. After the Sixth Army assembled in Zhangwu with cavalry as the main force, it launched an attack on Chifeng through Fuxin and Jianping, and according to the situation, entered the Great Wall from Xifengkou or Gubeikou to threaten the flank of the direct army.

In order to cooperate with the army, the Feng army also sent three air brigades, two of which were under the command of the First and Third Combined Armies, and the other was stationed near Yixian County under the command of the Second Army. The aviation unit was responsible for reconnoitring the enemy, bombing the positions of the direct army, and sending the navy to defend Huludao and other places.

President Cao Da, who was in the northern capital, urgently recruited Yushuai into Beijing to deal with Zhang Dashuai's attack. In the presidential palace of the northern capital, President Cao Da and Yushuai drank tea and chatted. "I thought it would take at least two or three years for Bongjang to recover after the last war. And after my new training of soldiers and horses is complete, I will go outside the customs to pacify him if he does not enter the customs. Bong Jang regained his strength so quickly, and it seems that the Japanese have invested a lot of money in him. "Yu Shuai is known as a god in the use of soldiers, and he has fought invincible opponents all over the world over the years, and he also has a sense of arrogance in his voice.

"Ziyu, I'm not worried about you here. It's just that the four provinces in the south have failed to defeat Lu Yongxiang, and Duan Zhiquan has been very happy recently. There is also the newly emerging Gao Zihou who copied Ma Lianjia's lair, forcing Qi Xieyuan not to dare to fight anymore. What do you think? Why don't you send a telegram to take him in? President Cao said.

"Hmph, what ability does Huangkou Xiaoer have to occupy Anhui Province? I read the telegram that had been sent, and that it was impossible to advance again. After I crusade against the rebellion, I will sweep away these small characters. "Yushuai has never taken the people in the country into account.

At this time, Gao Yang had already come out of the beacon point in the northern capital and boarded the train to Tianjin.

Tianjin Duan Mansion. "Contemptible Smith, is the messenger of the senior officer, and he has come to visit Duan Dashuai on the order of the senior official." Gao Yang bowed down and said to Duan Dashuai.

"Hehehe, please sit down, please take a seat. The old man lived in seclusion here, but I didn't expect anyone to remember, I was really happy, very happy. Duan Dashuai squinted his eyes and smiled.

"The marshal is the leader of my Anhui people, and the senior commander specially ordered the contemptible people to come to report the war in Anhui Province like the marshal, and the senior commander said that he has been waiting for the time when the marshal will come out of the mountain again to take charge of the palace." After speaking, he took out a check and handed it to both hands, "This is a little bit of the senior officer's heart, and please smile." ”

Duan Dashuai restrained his smile and glanced at the numbers on the check, his eyelids jumped, but he didn't pick up the check. stared at Gao Yang and said, "Now that the direct line is in full swing, the Feng department is also strong and strong, why does he want to vote for my Anhui department?" ”

Gao Yang's purpose is to find a big tree to hug. It's important to have someone above you when your strength is insufficient. Gao Yang, who knows the historical direction of the Dao, first excluded the direct family, and the territory that was originally grabbed from the direct family is not necessarily invested in others. As for the Feng system, after the war, it is the icing on the cake of the Feng system, how many benefits can be obtained? Only now the Anhui system of the tiger falling in Pingyang is the best big tree, take refuge in Duan Dashuai, there is Duan Dashuai on top, and he will manage Anhui Province well and wait for the opportunity. Moreover, Duan Dashuai has no ability to meddle in the affairs of Anhui Province, but it is just a matter of multiple names. For the Anhui system, this is a charcoal in the snow.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "President Cao Da bribed the election improperly, Yushuai had no one in his eyes, Ma Duli was rampant in Anhui Province, and he was angry and angry, and openly killed patriotic students. It is in line with the will of the people to chase them down on behalf of the Anhui people. After speaking, he put the check in Duan Dashuai's hand and bowed slightly, "Please take care of Duan Dashuai in the future." ”

The next day, Duan Dashuai issued a telegram: "During the period when Ma Lianjia supervised Anhui Province, he sold opium, deducted education funds, killed patriotic students, and sold minerals in Anhui Province, causing the heavens to be angry and resentful. "This is the person who shows everyone that Gao Yang is my Anhui line.

Subsequently, Lu Yongxiang quickly issued a telegram echoing it, saying that he should advance and retreat together with the people of Anhui Province. Zhang Dashuai also sent a telegram saying that Gao Yang was the representative of Anhui Province and should be the governor of Anhui Province.

At Lu Yongxiang's headquarters in Zhejiang, a person who claimed to be a messenger from Gaoyang sent a large number of sulfonamides, which surprised Lu Yongxiang. Recently, sulfonamides have been very popular in the whole world, and their huge role as an antibacterial drug on the battlefield Lu Yongxiang also knew that the price of the company called SC Trading was too black, and it was 20 dollars a piece! Lu Yongxiang could only buy a small part for backup. This time, Gao Yang sent 100,000 copies of sulfonamides, which surprised Lu Yongxiang. "What is there to do Zihou? You just say. Lu Yongxiang said to Gao Yang, who was pretending to be a messenger. Dashuai, the senior commander said that it is natural for everyone to support each other in the same line of the Anhui lineage, how dare you make any requests. Gao Yang smiled and continued: "Our senior senior bought a batch of machines from the United States and Germany before, and now he has arrived in the magic capital, and wants to ask the marshal to let them go and let them go to Anqing." ”

"Hehe, such a trivial matter, it's easy to say, I'll order it to be released." Lu Yongxiang called his navy in front of Gao Yang and asked them to open up the river and let the fleet enter the Yangtze River. Lu Yongxiang's navy was his private army, and it was not easy to buy, so Gao Yang directly found Lu Yongxiang himself to walk.

Cars and gasoline bought from the United States, ammunition and ammunition production lines bought from Germany, and mercenaries arrived at Anqing Port smoothly. A large amount of supplies were unloaded, Gao Yang transferred Weix to reorganize all the troops, and the newly arrived materials were replenished according to the establishment of the original regiments of the Security Brigade and reorganized into the First Division of the Anhui Army.

The thousands of newly recruited recruits and prisoners were all dispersed and replenished, and the regiment was reorganized into the Anhui Security Division, and a total of 7 regiments were stationed in various places, liberating the first division as a mobile force. These regiments were accompanied by a teaching team of German instructors, who were dispersed and stationed in various locations, while establishing military divisions and recruit training camps in the local area to recruit and train as a reserve to compensate for the force.

At this time, the governor in southern Anhui has fallen into a crisis, although there are more than 20,000 soldiers and horses around him, but they belong to various army heads, and there are not many people who can really command. More than 20,000 people eat horses and chew and have to pay military salaries, relying on the counties in the mountainous areas of southern Anhui to be unable to provide for them, the morale of the various departments is low, the military discipline is corrupted, and the people are boiling with resentment.

The military leaders under his command come to urge for money every day, where does the governor still have money? The nest was copied, and the money fell into Gao Yang's hands. Although Lord Governor still has a lot of deposits in the foreign bank of the Demon Capital, how can he take them out to feed these white-eyed wolves? The bad things these bastards have done are recorded on the head of the Overseer, and the whole country is scolding him these days!

On the night of 16 September, a group of soldiers of the Anhui Second Mixed Brigade ransacked a village in Yuqiao, Dangtu County, while most of the soldiers of the nearby Anhui Fourth Mixed Brigade were from Ma'anshan, and many of them were from Dangtu County. So a scuffle broke out, and fierce fighting continued until dawn, when both brigades were scattered.

At this time, Gao Yang sent a number of envoys to contact the various army leaders to launch a silver bullet offensive, and most of the army leaders agreed to defect to Gao Yang. After that, Yang Dong found the governor and made a condition: "Send a telegram to the field, send a telegram to oppose the straight, and send a telegram to promote the high governor to succeed him as the governor of Anhui." Go to the magic capital and live a good life with your family, the senior chief is willing to offer 1 million ocean meters. Your men are waiting outside. ”

The Overseer sat in his chair and was silent for a long time, and then let out a long sigh. Get up and leave.

That night, Anhui Governor Ma Lianjia sent a telegram to the field, opposed the straight, and recommended Gao Yang to succeed him as the governor of Anhui. After that, he took his cronies and took the 1 million ocean check given by Gao Yang to the magic capital on the river ferry of the British company.

Gao Yang ordered the troops in southern Anhui to be stationed at the origin point, and now is not the time to clean them up.

Among the new mercenaries were a number of instructors from the German non-commissioned officer school and the military academy, and most of the instructors of the military academy were forced to retire due to Germany's defeat and disarmament. The depreciation of the mark caused these unskilled soldiers to embark on ships to Asia in order to feed their families.

Gao Yang gathered these instructors and set up a non-commissioned officer training office in Anqing, and selected a group of elites from the army for assault training. At the same time, an officer training course has been set up to select lieutenant officers with outstanding potential from the army to go for further training.

Unlike Gao Yang, each biochemical soldier only needs 200 energy points to learn German, and Gao Yang strengthens the German language of each biochemical soldier, and these soldiers with a Berlin accent surprise the mercenaries. So much so that when Weix first arrived in Fengxian, he was amazed that he hadn't seen these Asians in Berlin for many years.
