Chapter 224: The Hero and the Ground Snake

Gradually eliminating the party forces in the army is one of the goals set by the commander-in-chief for the republican army to reorganize the army, as the commander-in-chief's guard captain, Tian Jinfu of course knows very well, so he will honestly report to the commander-in-chief the situation of Tian Zhenbang pulling himself over.

"Okay, it's strong! After a few minutes of non-existence, you are leaning against a big tree. The gold bar weighed five taels. Why doesn't the envoy of Tian Zhen bow to others, but he wants to bow to you? ”

Zhao Bei looked rare and confused, took chopsticks, picked up the last piece of roast pork in the porcelain plate, and stared at the gold bar in Tian Jinfu's hand.

"Who gave us the surname Tian, and the captain of the commander-in-chief's guard. Hehe, but no matter how thick the tree is, in front of the commander-in-chief, it is also a rotten tree, and it will be knocked down in three or two strokes. Tian Zhenbang wants to worship me as a brother, and he wants to pull me into the robe, commander-in-chief, should I go? Tian Jinfu asked, holding the gold bar.

"Go! Of course go. As long as you remember that you are a soldier of the Republican Army, Tian Zhenbang just wants to pull a foreign aid, let's give him a foreign aid, so that he can rest assured, lest he go to the north to vote for his name again. ”

"And this gold bar?"

Zhao Bei stuffed the barbecue into his mouth and glanced at it. Jino Yanda took a silk handkerchief from the table, wiped his mouth, glanced at the gold bar again, and said, "This gold bar is confiscated and handed over to the Jǐng Weiying Vault, and you can get a commission...... Ishikasui. ”

"Ichisei? Stingy. Tian Jinfu smiled.

"Contentment! Every time Lao Tzu recovers the money from the Chamber of Commerce, which time is not all handed over to the public? Which time did you not handle it? Zhao Bei rolled his eyes and threw the porcelain plate and chopsticks on the table of the Eight Immortals beside him.

"Let's go! Go to Hotan and guard them to speak. ”

Zhao Bei left with Tian Jinfu and the guards. On the rooftop, through the courtyard, straight to the east wing of the front yard, I saw Lan Tianwei and Fu Huafeng standing under the corridor and muttering quietly, as for Li Tongyuan, Zhou Daogang and other local gentlemen and politicians, they walked around outside the door of the wing, and kept rubbing their hands.

Zhao Bei walked over and asked Lan Tianwei, "Xiuhao, I invited you to come just now. Escort, how to stand outside? ”

Lan Tianwei smiled bitterly: "I was kicked out." Thankfully, I'm walking behind. One took the initiative to retreat, otherwise, the dignified chief of the general staff of the Republican Army was kicked out, which is not like words. ”

Fu Huafeng was also helpless, and raised his hand to point to the wing. The closed door whispered: "Tian Zhenshou made a few of them quarrel inside, and I went with Chairman Li to persuade them, but one of them was kicked and kicked out. ”

The gentry also surrounded and took the opportunity to fall into the well.

"Commander-in-Chief, these guys. are all robe brothers, shouting and shouting to kill if they can't say a few words, where are they like generals of the revolutionary army? ”

"Their indiscriminate ranks will only harm the locality, so it is better to disband them as soon as possible, otherwise it will violate the unification of the military decree."

……

Zhao Bei raised his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and listened carefully, but he couldn't hear any sound in the wing, and he felt even more strange, so he said, "You come in with me." ”

After speaking, he took a step back and glanced at Tian Jinfu, and the captain of the guard understood, and took a few guards to rush ahead, pushing the door of the wing room open, but the room was eerily quiet.

"Yo ho! How many people are doing this? Put the gun down and have something to say. ”

Tian Jinfu stood at the door and looked at it, only then did he understand why it was very quiet inside, the few gangsters in it had already stopped fighting, everyone was copying guns in their hands, pointing at each other's noses, and their eyes were staring at each other's index fingers on the trigger, no wonder they didn't have time to talk.

Fortunately, Zhao Bei had already kept an eye on it, and all the military and political dignitaries who went to the banquet were not allowed to bring guards, otherwise, I am afraid that the gunshots would have been heard just now.

Hearing the voice of the captain of the guard, several people in the room turned their heads to see the captain of the guard leading the heavily armed guards standing in the doorway, and behind them stood the commander-in-chief and a group of equally stunned gentlemen, obviously surprised by their actions.

"Everyone, you are all revolutionary soldiers, it seems a little inappropriate to point guns at each other's noses like this. After all, I am also the commander-in-chief, and I have the highest rank, so listen to my advice and put away all my guns, so as not to hurt the peace. ”

Zhao Bei stood outside the door and shouted a few times, and the gentry hurriedly retreated to the side, so as not to shoot inside and accidentally injure the civilians.

"Hear the commander-in-chief's order? Why don't you put your gun away? Won't I be able to do it? Tian Jinfu walked into the house with the guards and blocked the view of the people in the house with his figure.

"You turtle son, if it weren't for the commander-in-chief, Lao Tzu would have beaten you to the heart!" Yang Shaonan's voice came from the house.

followed by Tian Zhenbang's voice: "Don't think that you are afraid of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has six revolvers in his hands, or two guns!" Let's take a look at what you have in your hands, the 'Lichuan brand' made in Chengdu, the breech is loaded, and the copper cap is made in what year, and I don't know if it hits or not. Grab land with Lao Tzu, you have to at least take a single rod to ring the hair? ”

"Tian Jinfu, persuade a few revolutionary comrades, what do you have to say, why bother to use guns?"

Zhao Bei stood outside the house and shouted, and at the same time pulled Lan Tianwei and Fu Huafeng to retreat to the side of the dripping eaves. Although a good person does it to the end, but to be honest, he wishes that the people in the house are infighting, and it is best to shoot each other to death, so that he can justifiably replace another person to help govern southern Sichuan, and it is better to control it, three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged people are everywhere, "King of Sichuan" sounds good, but in fact he is his agent of Zhaobei, and anyone can be it.

Since Hubei must be taken care of first, the Republican Army does not have enough strength to suppress southern Sichuan, so it is necessary to support an agent to help rule southern Sichuan, not to mention that there are many parties in Sichuan, and it is more convenient to use Sichuan locals to suppress the ground.

Moreover, this move can send a signal to other local powerful factions: It is definitely beneficial to defect to the commander-in-chief, so everyone goes to the commander-in-chief and becomes the commander-in-chief's agent.

As for how long this agent can rule, it depends on the development of the situation in the country. Tian Zhenbang is not the most ideal agent in southern Sichuan, his power is too strong, he is a big man in the robe, and he is inextricably linked with the old army patrol battalion, if it is not well controlled, there is a possibility that the tail will not be lost, and this is also the main reason why Zhao Bei is looking at the infighting among them, and killing people with a knife is a clever plan.

However, the people in the room obviously did not intend to fight now, and Tian Jinfu did not correctly understand the commander-in-chief's intentions, so the guards easily confiscated the pistols of several people, Tian Jinfu walked out of the wing room with a gun, lit up the gun, and said, "Everyone, you can go in." ”

"This idiot! This is deliberate, trying to ask me to let him go to the combat unit. What's so bad about following me as a bodyguard? Delicious food and drink are waiting, and from time to time someone sends gold bars to pull in, this kind of advantage is difficult to find with a lantern. ”

Zhao Bei scolded a few words, so he could only temporarily put aside the idea of killing people with a knife, and led everyone into the wing, but saw that the four people in the room were sitting on the east and west sides, Tian Zhenbang and Wang Zixiang were sitting on the east side, and Yang Shaonan and Zhou Hongxun were sitting on the west side, faintly the posture of the two camps.

Tian Zhenbang is the "Guardian of Southern Sichuan" recommended by the commander-in-chief, Wang Zixiang is the overlord of Rong County, Yang Shaonan is the head snake of Weiyuan, and Zhou Hongxun is the leader of the people's army in Qiongzhou.

In addition to these few, Renshou's Qin Xingsan and Weiyuan's Gandongshan are also local powerhouses, but neither of them came to the banquet, and they didn't even participate in the "Salt Politics Aftermath Conference", as for why they didn't come, Zhao Bei can only guess that they are worried about being blacked out, and they are even more afraid that they will be cleaned up by the Republican Army nearby.

This is simply the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, which is really hateful! So, I'm afraid that the territory of southern Sichuan doesn't have the same share as those two people, and it's not good to say, the first batch of "bandits" who will be exterminated by Tian Zhen's guards in the future are those two.

But since someone is here, then it is to give himself face, no matter what, this favor has to be returned, Zhao Bei decided to try his best to mediate and mediate for these four local snakes, distribute benefits, and preside over justice, you can't let people go home empty-handed, if there is no benefit to obtain, who will rebel with their heads? If the commander-in-chief doesn't give benefits, won't the president in the north give them benefits?

In troubled times, heroes from all directions, if you have a gun, you are the king of grass, and if you have a gun and a soldier, you can mix well in this era, everyone understands this truth, and you don't have to pretend to be high in front of interests.

"Guys, what was the quarrel just now?"

Zhao Bei asked knowingly, sat down with a big grin surrounded by the guards, and after asking, he took a cup of tea and took a sip.

"The two turtle sons are not authentic, and they insist that they are the heroes of the recovery of Furong Field, and they want to garrison Rong County!"

Wang Zixiang spoke first, and scolded Zhou Hongxun for being bloody.

"The surname is Zhou, you are a guest army from Qiongzhou, two days later than the Republican Army, how can you say that you are a hero of the recovery? If it hadn't been for the Republican Army, you would still be eating the imperial grain of Tartars in the patrol camp! You are a turtle son, you are a deaf man who blows suona ―――――― blows blindly! ”

After hearing this, Zhao Bei understood why Wang Zixiang and Tian Zhenbang sat together, the feeling was that he was afraid that the territory of Rong County would be robbed, so he pulled Tian Zhenbang as a backer, but he didn't know whether Tian Zhenbang agreed or not, after all, although Rong County is not Tian Zhenbang's jurisdiction, but it belongs to the jurisdiction of Jiading Mansion, next to Tian Zhenbang's Xuzhou Mansion, which is also the fat meat in the tiger's mouth, smelling his nose, and his heart is greedy, that Jiading Mansion was also the territory that Zhao Bei promised to reward Tian Zhenbang, but because of Tian Zhenbang's hesitation, The four mansions and one hall have become three mansions and one hall, and the Tian Zhen guard is of course not happy.

Wang Zixiang jumped out to provoke, Zhou Hongxun naturally would not be willing to be scolded, and immediately ridiculed each other: "You turtle son is a blind blow!" When the republican army came, you were still hiding from the Qing soldiers in the cottage, and when you heard the news of Fushun's recovery, you were busy taking people to Rong County, but you couldn't enter the city, so you had to run Fushun again, if it wasn't for my long way, I would have arrived at Fushun before you! ”

……

The two quickly scolded each other again, and after listening to a few words, Zhao Bei secretly laughed, this kind of situation of you fighting for me is very conducive to his division and disintegration, southern Sichuan is only temporarily handed over to the management of this gang of landlords, and when the republican army frees up its hands, the three mansions and one hall in southern Sichuan will still be directly under its jurisdiction, and the kingdom of dúlì will never exist for a long time, and Zhao Bei will never tolerate it.

"Enough!"

Zhao Bei threw the teacup on the square table beside him, only shouted and pressed the argument down, raised his head and glanced at the four people present, and said coldly: "What is your territory, my territory?" Isn't it all the territory of Republican China? Did everyone participate in the revolution to grab territory? In the future, you must not make noise outside, so that others will hear, and beware of being looked down upon! Anyway, all of you are heroes in the construction of the republic, and we can't let the word 'hero' change the taste. Commander Wang, Commander Zhou, aren't you all members of the Alliance? Why do you also engage in nest fighting? ”

"That's, that's. The commander-in-chief is right, you are all revolutionary warriors, now that the revolution has been completed, you are all your own people, there is no need to divide each other, and the war is over, it is not interesting to raise so many troops, it is better to repatriate to your hometown earlier, as for the severance funds, the people and gentry of Furongchang can also serve one or two. ”

Li Tongyuan, the president of the Fushun Chamber of Commerce, was busy agreeing, and the other gentlemen were also thinking the same way.

The thoughts of the people are very understandable, and they are afraid that these local snakes will start a war in Fushun and corrupt the place. Some time ago, it was by relying on the strength of the Republican Army that an imminent internal strife was stopped, and the merchants and people of Fushun did not want to see those "indiscriminate troops" coming from the other side of the river again, and wished that the commander-in-chief would take this opportunity to forcibly dismiss them, so that the people did not bother to care whether you were a Liberation Society or an Alliance Association.

That's right, these are all revolutionary heroes and republican heroes, but aren't heroes meant to be forgotten?

Only by forgetting the heroes can we save the country with peace of mind.
