The loss of Henglong Bridge has opened the door of Cangshui, and Yiyang has also been most directly threatened!

Zhang Jingyao didn't have the idea of defending Yiyang, especially after the Henglong Bridge was lost so quickly, the fear of war became more and more intense.

Most of Hunan has been lost, and he has been driven out of Changsha, even if Yiyang can hold it, Hunan is bound to be either the Northern Expeditionary Army or Beiyang, what is the point of continuing to stay here?

Once such an idea is generated, it is very difficult to contain it.

Zhang Jingyao has already decided to surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army, no matter what the outcome is, it is much better than being trapped here alive and becoming a prisoner of the Northern Expeditionary Army sooner or later!

But Zhang Jingyao's every move completely fell into the eyes of Song Dapei, who was watching him.

Nominally to help the war, but in fact to monitor, Song Dapei has long seen through Zhang Jingyao, as long as the situation is not right, Zhang Jingyao will definitely betray Yushuai without hesitation!

Since the loss of Henglong Bridge, Zhang Jingyao immediately said that he was sick and no longer saw Song Dapei, and at the same time, the command in Yiyang City was full of people, all of them were secretive, and Yiyang was in several key passes, and a large number of soldiers were quickly added.

"Zhang Jingyao is ready to surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army."

Song Dapei's words surprised Bai Enru, the head of the regiment who came to Yiyang with him: "Then what should we do now?" Yiyang is all Zhang Jingyao's men, we only have one regiment in our hands, and there is a huge difference in strength, it is better to evacuate here temporarily, and then seize Yiyang after readjusting the troops! ”

Glancing at him, Song Dapei shook his head: "Yiyang is lost, Yushuai's flank portal is opened, and the danger increases, if the Northern Expeditionary Army wins Yiyang, how can it be easy to let it out?" ”

As he spoke, his tone became extremely firm: "Enru, Yushuai treats you and me like a mountain, and the decisive battle in Hunan is very important right now, are you willing to die with me?" ”

Bai Enru pursed his mouth: "I am willing to listen to the dispatch!" ”

"Good!" Song Dapei's voice suddenly raised: "I will take a platoon, in the name of discussing important military affairs, to Zhang Jingyao's headquarters, act at the opportunity, and control Zhang Jingyao." If it doesn't work out"

His eyes became a little cold: "If you can't succeed, you will listen to my gunshots, lead the whole regiment, forcibly attack the headquarters, and capture Zhang Jingyao alive!" ”

"Yes!" Bai Enru answered without hesitation.

Song Dapei sighed, whether he could succeed this time or not, he didn't have any bottom in his heart, but Yushuai was so kind to himself, even if he gave up this surname, he must protect Yiyang for Yushuai.

Die and die, it's worth dying to repay Yushuai

On August 5, Li Zongren, who had obtained the Henglong Bridge, immediately ordered his troops to immediately launch an attack on Cangshui.

At this time, Zhang Jun's hearts were already in turmoil, and under the tough attack of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Zhang Jun, who defended against Cangshui, completely abandoned this place after only one day of resistance by symbolic surnames.

The portal to Yiyang has been opened!

But this is not what Zhang Jingyao has to worry about, his only consideration is how to establish contact with the Northern Expeditionary Army as soon as possible.

His two younger brothers, Zhang Jingshun and Zhang Jingyu, arrived at his headquarters, and Zhang Jingyao said his thoughts, Zhang Jingshun had already patted his thigh and said; "It's been like this a long time ago, others haven't seen the Northern Expeditionary Army, but I've seen it with my own eyes, not to mention Wu Peifu, it's Yuan Shikai's rebirth, and I don't think it's Wang Hengyue's opponent. Big brother, if you want to surrender, you must surrender as soon as possible, otherwise once you wait until Yiyang City is broken, it will be too late. ”

Zhang Jingshun also echoed one after another: "Exactly, exactly, the fourth brother is still in their hands at the moment, it's too late, once the fourth brother is killed, how can we explain to our mother!" ”

The two younger brothers were so approving of it, Zhang Jingyao gritted his teeth: "Okay, second, you have dealt with the Northern Expeditionary Army, I will"

Before he finished speaking, the adjutant outside had already come in and reported: "Overseer, Song Dapei asks to see." ”

"Song Dapei, what is he doing at this time?" Zhang Jingshun frowned.

Zhang Jingyao sneered and said; "He must have discovered something, did he bring the soldiers?"

"Report, bring a platoon of soldiers!"

Zhang Jingyao's face sank: "Song Dapei is trying to do something to me!" Order, give me the weapons of Song Dapei's platoon, and then control Bai Enru's regiment! ”

"Yes!"

Civil strife, before the Northern Expeditionary Army arrived, had already broken out in Yiyang City.

Zhang Jingyao wanted to disarm Song Dapei, but Song Dapei quickly discovered Zhang Jingyao's attempt, and the shootout began in an instant!

And Bai Enru, who heard the gunshots, also quickly gathered the whole regiment and marched towards Zhang Jingyao's headquarters.

But Zhang Jingyao's army also moved!

The two sides fought in Yiyang City, Zhang Jingyao was outnumbered, but Bai Enru's troops were well-trained and took the lead in controlling the favorable terrain, and it was difficult to solve the killing for a while.

At this time, Li Zongren was heading in the direction of Yiyang, and when he was still some distance away from Yiyang, the reconnaissance company in front suddenly came to report that there was a fierce gunfire in Yiyang City.

Li Zongren was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I heard that Wu Peifu arrived in Yiyang with his cronie Song Dapei, called to help the war, but in fact he is surveilling, and now the water has been lost, with Zhang Jingyao's surname, he will inevitably choose to surrender to our army, Song Dapei is a loyal to Wu Peifu, and he will definitely refuse to submit to Zhang Jingyao, that is Yiyang is fighting in the house!" ”

Just as he was about to order the whole army to march quickly and march towards Yiyang, he suddenly came to report that Zhang Jingyao's second brother Zhang Jingshun had arrived.

As soon as he saw Li Zongren in front of him, Zhang Jingshun panted and said: "Chief of Staff Li, save Yiyang, my eldest brother wants to surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army, Song Dapei insists on refusing, and now the two armies are fighting fiercely in Yiyang!" ”

Li Zongren smiled slightly, and then his expression became correct: "Xu Mu! ”

"Here!"

"Order you to immediately lead the third division in person and rush to the aid of Yiyang!"

"Yes!"

The Northern Expeditionary Army marched towards Yiyang at a gallop, but the two armies fighting in Yiyang City seemed to treat each other as if they were killing their father's enemies!

Zhang Jingyao told his subordinates that he was ready to surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army, and those soldiers of the Zhang Army had been defeated repeatedly in previous battles with the Northern Expeditionary Army, and they had no fighting spirit.

And the troops commanded by Song Dapei all took Wu Peifu as their reborn parents, and in order to defend Yiyang, everyone gave up their surnames to fight each other, and for a time they were inseparable.

But Song Dapei knew that he would be defeated sooner or later, the Northern Expeditionary Army was too close to here, and it could be reached in a few hours, but Yushuai was beyond the reach of the whip at the moment.

But Song Dapei doesn't care about these at all, just die, just die, just die to repay Yushuai!

Time passed minute by minute, and two hours later, Bai Enru hurriedly ran over: "The vanguard of the Northern Expeditionary Army has entered the city!" ”

"Boom", although there were preparations, Song Dapei's mind exploded.

It's over, it's over, it's completely over.

The news of the Northern Expeditionary Army's entry into the city also made the surrounding soldiers look at each other and be at a loss, Song Dapei glanced to the side, let out a long sigh, and shook his head with a gloomy expression.

He suddenly beckoned to Bai Enru and called him to his side: "Enru, the general trend is gone, Yiyang is no longer Yushuai." Surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army with your brethren and keep them alive. ”

Bai Enru nodded: "What about you?" ”

He originally asked in passing, the battle has reached this point, and it is not interesting to continue to hold on.

Who would have thought that Song Dapei smiled: "I'll go and pack up the papers, and the troops will be led by you, remember, don't lose the prestige of Yushuai when you calculate the surrender, Cheche, I'll come to meet you when I'm done with things!" ”

Bai Enru's brain was not flexible, and he turned slowly, and when he heard this, he immediately asked the soldiers to reorganize the team.

Back in his office, Song Dapei burned all the important documents, and then thought carefully about what else he had missed.

After a while, watching the papers in the brazier burn, he drew his pistol.

Goodbye, Yushuai!

I failed to fulfill your entrustment, failed to live up to your expectations, and I have no face to see you again, and I have no face to live in this world again.

He aimed the gun at his temple and closed his eyes

Song Dapei died, Zhang Jingyao and Bai Enru surrendered, and Yiyang fell into the hands of Li Zongren in a relaxed form.

When he heard the news of Song Dapei's death, Li Zongren sighed: "It can be regarded as a loyal man, pack up his body and send it to Wu Peifu." ”

Bai Enru cried bitterly, squatted on the ground and beat his head repeatedly. Why didn't you find out? Why didn't he find out about Song Dapei's abnormality earlier?

Song Dapei can die for Yushuai, can't he himself?

"Zhang Jingyao see Chief of Staff."

Li Zongren looked at the place where he spoke, Zhang Jingyao and his younger brother appeared in front of Li Zongren humbly, Li Zongren suddenly laughed: "Dignified hand Zhang, Yao Shunyu soup, one, two, three, four, tiger, leopard and jackal." Zhang Jingyao, what a tiger and leopard jackal! ”

Zhang Jingyao's face was embarrassed and worried, but now he is not worried about the cynicism of his opponent, he only cares about whether his life can be saved.

According to the previous habit, Wang Hengyue generally did not kill the warlords in various places who surrendered or were captured, but just invited them to go abroad for investigation, and there was no big problem for him.

But then Li Zongren's words surprised the Zhang brothers:

"Zhang Jingyao, our president wants to invite you to Guangzhou, I have prepared a car for you, and there is a company escorted by a special person, please let Zhang Dujun go."

Zhang Jingyao was stunned, does Wang Hengyue want to see him?

What does he want to see himself do?

In fact, he and his brother didn't know that Wang Hengyue was too familiar with him, the future Han Jian, and in Guangzhou, there was a special court waiting for them.

And Brother Zhang Jingyao will also become the first warlord to be put on trial!
