Zhao Bei walked under the eaves and looked at the street lamp not far away, a group of soldiers were walking under the street lamp, the light dragged their shadows for a long time, the footsteps were also very clear, and the gunshots in the distance were more sporadic.

This room was originally just a teahouse next to the waiting room of the railway station, and now it has become the headquarters of the counterinsurgency force, Zhao Bei sits here to direct the counterinsurgency operation, and at the same time it also plays the role of the staff of the counterinsurgency force, and just half an hour ago, when the West Road column commanded by Lan Tianwei rushed into the city, the general staff was restored to a complete structure, and now, Jiang Fangzhen and Zhang Xiaozhun are in the waiting room next to this teahouse to coordinate the actions of the counterinsurgency troops.

Among the troops participating in the counterinsurgency, the Sixth Armored Division of the National Defense Army is the backbone force, but this unit is not the only counterinsurgency force, and other units in the Gyeonggi garrison are also being put into counterinsurgency operations one after another, but the number of troops is large, in order to prevent accidental attacks in the chaos, the General Staff must carefully arrange the march routes and warning areas of each unit, which takes time and patience, in fact, according to Zhao Bei's meaning, it is not necessary to quell this military coup d'état at all such a big movement, However, Jiang Fangzhen and Zhang Xiaozhen insisted on the need to show the strength and determination of the military, so in the end, Zhao Bei agreed to the plan of sending the Gyeonggi garrison to participate in the counterinsurgency operation on a large scale.

Now that the 1st Motorized Infantry Division of the Gyeonggi Garrison has advanced to Changping, the vanguard has made contact with the liaison officer of the 6th Panzer Division, and after dawn, the 1st Motorized Infantry Division will arrive at the railway station and take over control of the railway station from the 6th Panzer Division, which may have captured the Capitol before that.

In fact, since the Western Route Column under the command of Lan Tianwei arrived in the western suburbs of the city, the 6th Panzer Division had already begun to advance in the direction of the Capitol, and now they have captured the first radio station and made contact with the internal affairs forces that fought back in the northern city, and are now continuing to advance in the direction of the Capitol.

Lan Tianwei has also rushed to the railway station after handing over the command of the West Road Column to Tian Miao, the commander of the armored brigade, and is currently only a few minutes away from the railway station.

So far, this counterinsurgency operation can basically be said to be nearing the end, and the rest of the work remains. The most important thing is two things, one is to stabilize the people's hearts, after all, there is a battle in the city, although the fighting is not fierce, and basically there is no loss of civilian lives and property, but this is not an ordinary city after all, but the capital of the country, the political center, the stability of the people's will is the top priority, the other thing is to search for those rebels who participated in the coup, we must ensure that there are no fish that slip through the net, and in order to do this, the traffic arteries of the small city must be tightly sealed, This is also the main reason why Zhao Bei decided to march first outside and then inside, first to fence off the city, and once it is dawn, it will be more difficult for the coups to escape.

"This rain has stopped, the sky should be bright, Jiang Fangzhen walked behind Zhao Bei, looked at the dark and dreary sky, and muttered.

"Nanyuan Air Force Base, have you been contacted? Zhao Bei turned his head and asked.

"I just contacted five minutes ago, and it said that as long as the weather permits, combat planes can take off. But I think it's suspenseful, although the rain has stopped, but the sky hasn't turned around yet, and I can't say when it will rain again, so the Air Force is there. We don't have to worry too much about it. ”

"You send a motorized column to the west side of the mountain, and be sure to encircle and annihilate the rebel force attacking the house

"I've already sent someone."

Jiang Fangzhen nodded, and saw Zhao Bei turn his head and walk into the headquarters, so he hurriedly followed, since this teahouse had been requisitioned by the military, the owner and men of the teahouse did not have to worry about opening and welcoming customers. The room was in a mess, the scraps of the teacups on the floor had not been cleaned up, presumably due to the panic of the tea drinkers after the coup d'état last night, and newspapers were scattered on some tables.

Jiang Fangzhen walked to a table and picked up a newspaper. But it is a "Pioneer Daily", and now this newspaper is still the party newspaper of the United Front, but the style of writing is very different from a few years ago, in the past, this newspaper was mainly based on official news and reports, but now, the newspaper's reports are also full of entertainment style, celebrity anecdotes, literati bickering, to the point that it is quite similar to those small tabloids that do not enter the stream.

In this newspaper, Jiang Fangzhen took a lot of effort to find a very serious report on the world situation, and when he saw the editor's signature, it was really Zhang Jiyang, so he smiled, walked to Zhao Bei with the newspaper, handed the newspaper to Zhao Bei, and pointed to the article and whispered a few words.

"Zhang Shiren is still concerned about the world situation, which is really rare.

”

Zhao Bei looked at the report, smiled, and said: "He is called the worry of the world, anyway, he is idle, since Li Yuanhong disbanded the headquarters of the Political Propaganda Commission, Zhang Shiren has become an idler, often running to the mansion, every time he goes to the past, he always complains to me, I suggest that he study the world situation more, all as a pastime." But then again, his report on Abyssinia is quite decent, and his strategic analysis is also correct, consistent with my analysis, Italy will soon attack Abyssinia, and since Mussolini wants to restore the glory of ancient Rome, he will definitely not fight the idea of France first, and it is a good choice for him to start with a weak country in Africa

"Speaking of Abyssinia, I remembered that last year the Ministry of Defense concubineed a batch of old planes to the emperor of Abyssinia, and said that half of the money from the sale of these planes went to the General Staff and used to purchase new ones. But until now, the General Staff has not even seen a penny, and this matter cannot be counted like this. Jiang Fangzhen suddenly remembered something.

Zhao Bei said, "It's useless for you to tell me about this, I'm a cloth cloth now, you have to tell Li Yuanhong about this, he is the president, or you just go to the Ministry of Justice to complain, and say that you have been deceived."

Jiang Fangzhen shook his head and said, "If you are Buyi, then aren't we the private armed forces commanded by Buyi?" That's not right, it's not right. Otherwise, after the peace, it will be chaotic. Are you back in government? In that case. This military spending is not a problem...

Hearing this, Zhao Bei understood it, it turned out that Jiang Fangzhen was going around the bend, "persuaded Zhao Bei to wave his hand, found a stool to sit down, set up Erlang's legs, and said: "Politics? The government is over, and then it will be the constitutional era, and I want to run for president, not for the president, but for the constitutional president. This constitutionalism is the general trend of history, you can't stop it, I can't stop it, we can only follow this general trend of history. The reason why I raised troops to quell the rebellion this time is to conform to the general trend of history, if I put down the rebellion and engage in any kind of non-government, it will be a slap in the face, who will believe my words in the future? Don't be afraid that the constitutional system will damage national defense, the United States is also a constitutional system, but if there is really a war, the size of the army will be millions of people once it is expanded, and the size of the aircraft and tanks will be tens of thousands of small. This suggests that as long as there are no problems with the country's industry and economy, then the country's military potential will not be affected. How can we maintain the healthy development of the country's industry and economy? First of all, we need a stable domestic political environment, and when people's hearts are stable, this politics will also be stable. ”

That's a beautiful thing to say, but who is Jiang Fangzhen? It was the Deputy Chief of Staff of the General Staff, a well-known strategist. Although it was not known at that time how the commander-in-chief would kill the Congress, from that time on, Vice Minister Jiang had already made preparations for the "hawks" to return to power.

Since the commander-in-chief wants to set up the archway, then the subordinates also have to follow the archway, so Jiang Fangzhen also pulled a stool, sat down opposite Zhao Bei, took out a box of "old fort" cigarettes, first handed a paper cigarette to the commander-in-chief, and then lit one himself, smoked a few puffs, and then made a beautiful remark.

"Constitutionalism, I also support it. However, this military expenditure cannot be achieved by Li Yuanhong and the people in the National Assembly, who are short-sighted and only see the current peace and do not see the future war. Now Japan and Italy are all ready to move, Germany is also raising its radical forces, plus the Soviet Union, which is eye-to-eye with the United States, and now, the world situation is just like Zhang Shiren's comments in the newspaper. Therefore, we still have to take precautions, and after Li Yuanhong steps down, we should take care of this national defense matter, and those military research and development projects that have been withdrawn will be resumed immediately, those idle military and technical personnel will be used immediately, and military and technological exchanges with Germany and Italy must also be resumed immediately

The last few sentences were so explicit that they almost said that the parliament was dissolved and the presidential palace was stormed. Hearing this, Zhao Bei's brows furrowed.

"That can't be said, this parliament still has to be kept, after all, it is a symbol of constitutionalism. However, the National Assembly must accept the transformation of the people, and it must serve the entire people, not only for the chaebol, but also for the whole people, and only the National Assembly that serves the people is a patriotic National Assembly and a united National Assembly. Therefore, I intend to propose that the National Assembly be reorganized, expand the size of the National Assembly, increase the number of members, and have at least 1,000 members, and at least half of them have served in the army! ”

Zhao Bei's words were also simple, Jiang Fangzhen was immediately happy when he heard it, he finally fully understood what Zhao Bei meant, according to this line of thought. In the future, this Congress can basically be said to be a friend of the military.

"What if Congress doesn't agree with your proposal?"

Jiang Fangzhen hurriedly asked, this question is also very reasonable, the National Assembly is the legislature. All amendments to laws must pass through the National Assembly, which is also the fundamental difference between constitutionalism and government.

"What do you think I'm going to go into town after twelve o'clock with the veterans?

Zhao Bei snorted unhurriedly, and raised his eyes to see the figure at the door of the teahouse, but it was Lan Tianwei who walked in.

"Xiuhao, you're a few minutes late. Just now we have received a report from the West Road Column that they have occupied the police headquarters and are now encircling the Capitol with the East Road Column. ”

Jiang Fangzhen stood up first, took a few steps up, and asked Lan Tianwei why he was late.

Lan Tianwei said: "On the way over, I met a group of congressmen who were being escorted to the Capitol, and I rescued them, so it was delayed, otherwise, I would have arrived here five minutes ago."

"You're coming through the middle of the city?" Zhao Bei was a little surprised.

"yes. After passing through several streets, the road was deserted, and there were few shadows of the rebels in sight, and I said, this time we really killed chickens with knives. I heard that the rebels specially sent people to attack Xishan, and I thought they were really brave and bold, but they turned out to be just papier-mâché tigers.

Lan Tianwei smiled bitterly.

"Of course, the rabble

Zhao Bei smiled, but he didn't say much about the key to this, only he knew it, Tian Jinfu and Yang Du also knew a little bit, as for the others. Perhaps they would not have thought that in fact, this "military coup" was just a conspiracy of Zhao Bei, and the "victim" image of the commander-in-chief was completely a cover-up.

A few people sat in the teahouse and chatted for a while about the current military situation, and the staff officers were busy cleaning the tables and chairs in the teahouse, and soon after, the day finally dawned, so Zhao Bei ordered the guards to prepare a vehicle for him, and he was going to the Capitol to preside over the overall situation.

The command here was handed over to these bigwigs of the General Staff, at half past seven in the morning, after the forward troops reported that they had seen the flagpole in front of the Capitol, Zhao Bei set off in an armored car, and he acted with Lan Tianwei on the way from the rebels rescued by the dozen or so congressmen, to be able to quell the rebellion with the commander-in-chief, the parliamentarians looked very happy, and they were glad that they lived far away from the Capitol.

At this point, the rain began to fall again. It seems that the planes of the Air Force are not going to want to fly. (To be continued.)
