Although Jiang Chaozong knew that this was just an excuse made by some politicians with ambitions to divide the territory, if it was just as Zhang Yuenian said, then the entire Northwest Group Army had already fallen into their hands? So the old handsome Nie Shicheng is what they call the master?

No, no, if he is the instigator of this operation, then he can just find a reason to adjust his guard and return a close subordinate to guard Hanzhong, why bother looking for so many people, it is a threat and a lure?

But if not him, who would it be? Who has such the ability to control an army group? Frankly speaking, although General Nie's Northwest Group Army had many troops join after the army was reorganized, the prestige of the old commander and the hundreds of thousands of descendants in his hands still shocked those soldiers

Before Jiang Chaozong could figure it out, Zhang Yuenian's strange yin and yang voice sounded in his ears again

"Hehe, Master Jiang, the Hanzhong you are guarding is a military location, if our master gives an order, your troops will bear the brunt of the attack of the imperial army, so it is quite important that Division Commander Ni and Division Commander Lin were specially transferred by our master to coordinate the defense."

Jiang Chaozong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Who is the master that Lord Zhang is talking about?" I, Jiang, have to know who I'm working for? In addition, during the emperor's southern tour, the military department strictly ordered the troops in various places not to arbitrarily transfer our two divisions in Hanzhong to adjust the defense in such a big move, isn't it telling the court that we have a problem here?"

Zhang Yuenian said proudly: "Hahaha, Master Jiang is really a person who has survived a hundred battles, he is thoughtful, Zhang admires it, but Master Jiang only knows one, I don't know the other, Zhang has just said, the entire northwest half of the Qing Dynasty is already in the hands of our master, not to mention, the emperor has now fallen into our ...... in Hangzhou."

Before Zhang Yuenian could finish speaking, Zhu Yintao, the governor of Shaanxi, who had not been silent, suddenly interrupted: "Enough, since Senior Commander Jiang has a grudge against us, we will hand over the military power, and this government will give you some silver to enjoy at the ends of the world, don't get involved in this troubled world."

"Master Zhu misunderstood Jiang, Jiang just wants to know who has firmly mastered this half of the country, if this person really loves the people like a son, he can bring us a happy life for the people of the northwest, I, Jiang, am willing to follow the left and right, and never betray him," Jiang Chaozong said categorically

Zhang Yuenian nodded happily and said: "Master Jiang is really fast-talking, our master is generous and benevolent, ten times stronger than Guangxu, and he is not a Manchu alien, but my Han true dragon son of heaven."

"Who is this person?" Jiang Chaozong's eyes widened and he continued to ask

"Division Commander Jiang doesn't need to ask anymore, when the time comes, he will naturally know that if Division Commander Jiang is willing to follow, with your military talent, you will definitely be able to become the founding general, in addition, our master does not want to cause war due to turmoil, resulting in the lives of the people, just want to establish the northwest as a country, break away from the Qing Dynasty, anyway, the Qing Dynasty has not really cared about our people in the northwest, can you see that the people on the southeast coast can be compared with the people in our northwest? Why do they have enough food and clothing, and we can only go hungry," Zhu Yintao said impatiently

“…… Okay, what do you want me to do? Jiang Chaozong had to bow his head and said in a compromise

"Okay, the one who knows the times is Junjie, and now, the specific location of the emperor's southern tour has been known, Guangxu is a greedy guy like his ancestors, even if the northwest land is not used, it will definitely not be allowed to be divided, so, he will not die for a day, our northwest cannot be independent for a day, if Guangxu does not die, then there will be endless wars, so he must die first.................." Zhu Yintao whispered in Jiang Chaozong's ear

Obviously, they still don't trust Jiang Chaozong who has just joined, and they simply told him that they were going to assassinate Guangxu, and on the day of the successful assassination, they announced that the five northwestern provinces were independent of the Great Qin Empire, on the one hand, it was similar to the pronunciation of the Qing Empire, and on the other hand, Shaanxi was originally a land belonging to the Qin State during the Warring States Period

Although Jiang Chaozong was only 35 years old, he had been in the army for many years, and of course he had his own unique views on the development of the situation

On the surface, what Zhu Yintao said does have the possibility of success, but the southeast coast of the Qing Dynasty is a rich land, and the northwest is poor and remote, and the transportation is inconvenient, but it is not that the imperial court does not care about the northwest, but it is really burdened by transportation

If the rebellion of the five northwestern provinces was really successful, even if there were no generals in the Guangxu court, such as Feng Xianghua, Dong Liang, Liu Mingchuan, Lu Yiwei, etc., they would not watch the entire northwest be divided like this

However, once the war starts, although the steep terrain in the northwest can become a natural barrier, it will also cause a serious impact on the transportation of its own supply lines.

Most of the domestic gun bureaus are concentrated in the southeast, southwest, Hubei and other places, and there is really no decent gun bureau in the northwest, even with the support of foreign forces, it will not be able to withstand the long war of attrition

The most important thing is that even if he succeeds in rebellion, he will be infamous as a traitor seeking glory, but once the rebellion is swept away, it will be a miracle in the world, and since this is the case, then ......

After thinking about it clearly, Jiang Chaozong cleared his throat and said: "My lords, since the mandate of heaven is to me, I can only obey the will of heaven, Jiang is also a Han son who stands up to the sky, there is no reason to work hard for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, please witness it, if there is a negative in the future, it will be like this cup."

......With a crisp sound, a wine glass fell from Jiang Chaozong's hand, and after it fell to the ground, the cup broke instantly, and the fragments immediately scattered around

"Okay," everyone present shouted at the same time

After that, it didn't take long for everyone sitting to drink freely, Jiang Chaozong was so drunk that everyone left after helping him to the bedroom

After everyone left, Jiang Chaozong immediately changed into a set of civilian clothes and rushed back to the barracks to find Wang Ergou, the current colonel and regiment commander of his old subordinate who served as the company commander when he was the battalion commander

"Dog, Lao Tzu has a task for you," Jiang Chaozong hurriedly said

"Commander, what's so urgent?"

"You find me a few trustworthy brothers, and go to the capital, Hangzhou, and Myanmar immediately"

"What are you doing in these places?"

"Don't talk nonsense, this is a secret order, go to the capital, hand this over to Kang Youwei, and when Lord Kang arrives in Hangzhou, he immediately goes to the prefect of Hangzhou to find Feng Xianghua, and hand this over to General Feng in person, and this is handed over to General Wang Feng in Burma."

"What's wrong?" Wang Ergou looked at Jiang Chaozong suspiciously, and asked inexplicably

"Don't do it so much, do whatever you want? In short, people believe in it, and people die and believe in it, and it can't fall into the hands of others, understand? Jiang Chaozong commanded solemnly

"Yes, division commander" Ergou has followed Jiang Chaozong for so many years, and he has felt a little bit of the tension exuded by the division commander, which is no less than a preparation meeting before a big battle
