Chapter 377 Tricks and Stratagems
10881908 Far East Madman Chapter 377 is on his own scheme
Xun Guanxiong is right. Now in the city of Nanjing. The most popular person is Na Wei, the commander of the military and private gangs, and the current guard of northern Jiangsu, Xu Qishan, and even Meng Enyuan, who has just been elected by his generals as the "Southeast Patrol Envoy", is not as beautiful as him.
The reason is also very simple, because Xu Baoshan is the head snake, and in the Jiangsu region, his power is deep-rooted, and it is not just because he is "Chun Baozhi." "The more important reason for the general scoop of the dock is that he has the full support of the United Front Zhao Mai, and he has this catty. The backer is behind his head, no matter how big the wind and waves, he Xu Zhen guards the eyes of the people.
Of course, it is impossible for Chairman Zhao to sit in Nanjing to support him Xu Baoshan, and there are naturally people who need to run errands between these two people, and there are mainly two people who run errands, one is called Hu Iodine, and the other is called Li Fanhe, these two are not only high-ranking cadres of the United Front, but more importantly, both of them are considered to be close associates of Chairman Zhao, and that Li Fanhe is a member of the Liberation League, which is a cronie of Chairman Zhao's cronies, at least in the eyes of outsiders. Because Chairman Zhao also walked out of his body,
Yes.
With such two cronies of Chairman Zhao sitting in Nanjing, Xu Baoshan was naturally full of confidence, of course, the other party worked so hard to support Xu Zhen's envoy. Then Xu Zhenshou naturally can't treat these two badly, no, the genius network is black, and another banquet was held, and the protagonists of the banquet were the two "commissioners" sent by Chairman Zhao.
Like the dinner a few days ago, this dinner was also held on the "Xuanwu Tower" by the Xuanwu Lake. It's just that it's a little different from the dinner a few days ago that tonight's banquet was not accompanied by Xu Baoshan in person, only Xu Baoshan's confidant Yang Ruiwen took a few disciples of "Chunbaoshan" to accompany the two commissioners to drink and talk, in addition. The top red girls who were summoned from the brothel of the Qinglou also accompanied the wine in this restaurant.
This "Xuanwu Building" originally had another name. It was originally a restaurant opened by the banner people, but it was confiscated by the Beiyang government after the revolution, and it became a private industry after a few hands in the hands of military and political figures. Now, this restaurant is an industry under the name of a Huizhou businessman, but the real backer is Zhu Jiabao, the governor of Jiangsu appointed by Yuan Shikai, and it is precisely because of this relationship that the military and political people in Nanjing regard this "Xuanwu Building" as the best place to socialize, and the business of this restaurant is also very prosperous.
Now, the wine and food upstairs in Xuanwu, the warbler and the swallow swallow, the scene of singing and dancing, compared with the chaotic political situation, suddenly there is some helplessness of "the merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country".
After several rounds of drinking, everyone was already somewhat drunk. Some addicts also took advantage of the strength of the wine to lie on the couch, and lived a big smoking addiction in the service of those women with heavy makeup and dust, and there was an intoxicating atmosphere up and down the restaurant, accompanied by Wu Yi's soft singing voice, which made people more and more difficult to extricate themselves.
Perhaps, this is the paradise in this troubled world.
Just when everyone was immersed in this illusory paradise, there was a burst of "ping pong" downstairs. The sound seemed to break the porcelain, and then a scolding was heard, and then the stairs "popped", and several army officers in Beiyang military uniforms walked up to the second floor and stood at the wine table in this box.
Li Suhe looked up and hurriedly stood up. Say hello to one of the officers.
"Envoy Xu Zhen, you are more than an hour late, you will be punished for drinking! I immediately instructed the guy to rearrange a table of wine and food, and we won't get drunk or go home! ”
"Smack!"
Xu Baoshan slapped the horsewhip in his hand on the wine table, and his mouth was also scolding.
"Bastard! Join hands to bully Lao Tzu. I really think Lao Tzu is a sick cat! Someday. Let you bastards walk around without eating! ”
Even a few words "Bastard." Not only did it startle Li Zahe, but it also scared Hu Mo and Yang Ruiwen's drunkenness away a little.
Seeing that the corners of Xu Baoshan's military uniform were covered with a few vegetable leaves, Yang Ruiwen hurriedly stood up and asked, "Brother Xu, what's wrong?" Is there someone who can't get along with you? Your military uniform is a cow?.
Only then did Xu Baoshan notice the vegetable soup on the military uniform. His face was even more ugly, and he waved his hand. Called a horse and said, "You guys, take down the guy who dared to spill vegetable soup on Lao Tzu just now." Dragged to the street and killed! ”
The horse took out the pistol, turned his head and left, which frightened Yang Ruiwen on the side, hurriedly shouted at the beggar, and whispered to Xu Baoshan: "Brother Xu, this Xuanwu Building is not an ordinary restaurant." This restaurant is covered by Zhu Jiabao, killing the guys here, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, in case a villain slanders Zhu Jiabao, saying that you are giving Zhu Dudu a look, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to us. Now Zhu Jiabao is still riding the wall, in case he is pushed to Zhang Yongcheng and them because of this matter. It's not good for our cause. ”
Xu Baoshan wanted to have a seizure, but Yang Ruijian's words were indeed very reasonable, so Tie Qing was stunned for a moment, and then called the horse back. Take off the military uniform that had been splashed with vegetable soup, and let the horse come with a new uniform
As soon as the military uniform was taken off, Xu Baoshan only had one shoulder left on his upper body, and now at the end of summer, the weather was still very hot, so he simply took off this shoulder together, sat down at the wine table shirtless, took a bowl of Shaoxing old wine brought by Yang Ruiwen, drank most of it in one go, and then drove out those irrelevant personnel, leaving only these few people at the wine table.
After Xu Baoshan was a little discouraged, Li Fanhe asked him about the matter.
"What else could it be for? In the afternoon, the ship "Haichou" returned to Nanjing, and guess who was on the ship? "Xu Baoshan will be that
"Isn't it Liu Guanxiong?" Li Zanhe said.
Of course, Liu Guanxiong is on the "Sea Chip." I'm talking about the person who went back to Nanjing with him, that person's name is Lu Jianzhang, have you heard of this person? Xu Baoshan looked at Li Bianhe, but the other party shook his head.
"Lu Jianzhang? I heard that this person is Yuan Shikai's eagle dog minions, specializing in taking people and killing people for Yuan Shikai, known as "Lu Tu", I heard that this person invites people to a banquet in the name of a banquet guest, hunts and kills people on the banquet, and then writes a crime on the invitation, and this invitation is also called "Hades ticket", that is to go and have no return. Hu Mo said.
"Speaking of which, if Lu Jianzhang gives me a post in the future, I can't go." Xu Baoshan's face was uncertain, and Yang Ruiwen, who was standing beside him, also had a bad face, and his triangular eyes almost narrowed into a straight line.
Hu Mo rushed to Nanjing from Anhui with Yang Ruiwen, and the two of them have been together for a long time, and he also knows a little about this person's character, he knows that whenever this Yang Ruiwen narrows his eyes with a straight face, it is when he wants to kill someone, as for who he wants to kill now, it seems that it is not difficult to guess.
"Envoy Xu, what the hell is going on? That Lu Jianzhang was Yuan Shikai's minion eagle dog, and he suddenly took "sea chips." When I arrived in Nanjing, I'm afraid it was not good. Hu continued to be slow and reasonable
"Needless to say? Lu Jianzhang took "sea chips." came back, just to support Meng Enyuan! I just found out that this Lu Jianzhang. and Meng Enyuan are sons and daughters, and the relationship between the two is iron! Fortunately, Lao Tzu's "Chun Bao Zhi" received a group of Beiyang officers, if not Cai, Lao Tzu would be sold by them now, and Lao Tzu was afraid that he was still counting the silver for them. ”
Listening to Xu Baoshan's complaints, Hu Mo was a little strange and asked, "Lu Jianzhang came to support Meng Enyuan." This is a good thing, Meng Enyuan sat firmly, "The southeast patrol envoy." 's height is also good for Xu Zhen's envoy. ”
"Yes, Meng Enyuan will sit firmly in the position of the patrol envoy one day earlier, and the envoy of Xu Zhen will fly one day earlier." Li Zahe also said.
"The two commissioners didn't know that Lu Jianzhang came over this time, in addition to supporting Meng Enyuan. is also supporting Zhang Yongcheng. Now, his idea is. Meng Enyuan served as the southeast patrol envoy, and Zhang Yongcheng served as the presidential officer of the First Army of the Beiyang Southward Advance. So, what other benefits do I have? ”
The more Xu Baoshan spoke, the more angry he became, and ordered his subordinates to bring another bowl of Shaoxing old wine and take it in one gulp.
Hu Mo and Li Bianhe both glanced at each other. coincidentally, they each retracted their gazes, picked up their wine glasses, and toasted Xu Baoshan again and again, never mentioning the affairs of officialdom, only concentrating on getting Xu Baoshan drunk
。
When the two received an order from Zhao Bei to rush to Nanjing as "special commissioners" to contact Xu Baoshan, they were stunned by Chairman Zhao's clear instructions, and according to the chairman's instructions, the main task of the two commissioners in Nanjing was to "muddy the waters" as much as possible. It is convenient for the Chairman and the United Front to benefit from it.
In order to turn Xu Baoshan into the stick that muddies the waters, the two commissioners did everything they could. The astonishment is out of the blue, and Xu's benefits are enough to make a stone man tempted, but in the process of Xu Baoshan's change of position and completely falling to the united front, it was the Southern Henan Campaign that played a key role, and the victory of that battle not only destroyed the self-confidence of the Beiyang Army, but also prompted Xu Baoshan to change his position.
It can be said that what can make Xu Baoshan change his position depends on the strength of the United Front itself. Without enough strength, the current Beiyang First Army will not become a pot of porridge.
Xu Baoshan's decision to defect to the United Front to do internal response, this is of course due to the nature of seeing the wind and making the rudder, but it may not be without his own little abacus, according to his plan, and the benefits promised by these two commissioners, once the overall situation is decided, he Xu Baoshan can replace the hat of the "town guard" on his head with the hat of "Jiangsu Governor", in that way, he Xu Baoshan can be regarded as the real emperor of the soil recommended by Jiangsu.
But now, with the appearance of Lu Jianzhang and his move to woo Meng Enyuan and Zhang Yongcheng at the same time, Xu Baoshan's wishful thinking is about to fail, can Xu Zhenshou not be in a hurry?
Meng Enyuan and Zhang Yongcheng wanted to be the "southeast patrol envoys", and the two were incompatible, forming a situation of competition between cranes and mussels, and the United Front and Xu Baorang were counting on this situation to profit from it. But now, Lu Jianzhang came to mediate the conflict between the two and asked one of them to be the southeast patrol envoy. As the commander of the First Army of the Beiyang Southward Advance, Lu Jianzhang's opinion actually represents the opinion of the Beiyang Center, and once Meng Enyuan and Zhang Yongcheng abandon their previous suspicions and shake hands and make peace. So, what kind of scum does Xu Baoshan, a fisherman, rely on?
Originally, the situation in Nanjing was a bit delicate, and the forces of all parties were in balance, and no one could help anyone for a while, but now, Lu Jianzhang clearly planned to reunite and integrate the scattered First Army of Beiyang South. And once the current situation is reversed by him, then the plan that everyone has worked so hard to manage will be considered to be in vain.
Therefore, whether it is Xu Baoshan, Yang Ruiwen, or Hu Yan and Li Bianhe, they are all thinking about how to deal with it.
The hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, and the Beiyang is indeed not so easy to wipe out in one fell swoop.
Now, the two sides are fighting both strength and wit, and it depends on which side is more wise.
