Brethren, are you ready for your monthly pass? 】

"The Hubei army in Sichuan mutinied in Zizhou, Duanfang and his younger brother Duanjin were the head, the Hubei army fled in chaos, and the officer Liu Yifeng led the rest of the troops to turn east!"

The telegram of just 37 characters clearly recounts the heads of the new governor Duan Fang and his younger brother Duan Jin when they went to Zizhou and were cut off by the mutinous Hubei army, as well as the story of a joint Hubei army that was divided and turned around and returned to Hubei.

The word "mutiny" is intriguing, Xiao Yimin and Zhao Erfeng don't need to think much to understand that the so-called mutiny is actually the same as the Wuhan New Army riot, and Liu Yifeng, the officer who can lead the rest of the army to return to Hubei after the chaos, is likely to be the mastermind of this mutiny.

Xiao Yimin looked at Zhao Erfeng, who was drinking alone:

"Teacher, it's noon on the twenty-seventh day, and it is estimated that Duanfang's killing happened in the early morning of this day, or after dawn, it seems that this governor of Sichuan will not be there in a short time."

Zhao Erfeng sighed: "I'm afraid it will never be." ”

The master and apprentice were still lamenting, Zheng Changze and Zhao Erfeng's military advisor Xu Weiyue who joined the Zhenzi Battalion both arrived, and Xu Weiyue, who was sweating profusely, reported in a low voice:

"My lord, Luo Lun, vice chairman of the Advisory Bureau, and Zhu Qinglan, commander of the New Army, ask to see you."

Zhao Erfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, Xiao Yimin hurriedly ordered Zheng Changze to accompany the guests, he and the teacher arrived in a while, and then turned to Zhao Erfeng and whispered:

"Teacher, it seems that their news is not later than ours, and it is very likely that they have already known the plan of the Hubei army to mutiny, otherwise they would not have found this place so quickly."

Zhao Erfeng raised his head and sighed, slowly stood up, and straightened his clothes: "They are forcing me to make a statement!" Since Yucheng announced the reading power five days ago, they can't sit still, and they don't know what kind of banner they want to pull up this time to change the world, alas! That's it, that's it! Let them make trouble, our father and son still follow the established strategy and fully support it, but don't go to this troubled water! Let's go, don't make the guests wait. ”

Luo Lun and Zhu Qinglan in the hall were restless, the two of them came with a heavy responsibility, where were they in the mood to drink tea? Seeing Zhao Erfeng and Xiao Yimin coming out of the inner hall, the two hurriedly stood up and saluted respectfully.

After greeting each other and sitting down one after another, Luo Lun and Zhu Qinglan glanced at each other, and Luo Lun directly relayed the requirements of the Baolu Comrade Association and the Sichuan Alliance, and then said very earnestly:

"Two adults, the two of us were entrusted by the members of the Advisory Bureau to ask for the opinions of Lord Zhao on how to reorganize the political axe and stabilize the situation in Sichuan."

Zhao Erfeng twisted his beard and smiled:

"Kang Hou is polite, after a few days, isn't everyone working together to discuss this matter? Now that the new governor appointed by the imperial court is gone, there will naturally be no obstacles, not to mention that southern Sichuan, northern Sichuan, western Sichuan and Yucheng have successively announced that they have organized their own political axe, and Chengdu, as the capital of a province, has fallen behind for a long time. Thanks to the two of you for coming! ”

Luo Lun and Zhu Qinglan were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly straightened their clothes and bowed deeply to Zhao Erfeng to show their gratitude.

Zhao Erfeng politely returned the salute and turned down the plea to ask him to take up the post of Minister of Military Affairs.

Luo Lun and Zhu Qinglan persuaded in unison, and they were determined to let Zhao Erfeng participate in the new political axe, who was Zhao Erfeng's brother Zhao Erxun's favorite general, and at the same time had a good relationship with Zhao Erfeng, Zhu Qinglan was even more nervous, and he saluted, and solemnly made a promise, asking Zhao Erfeng to go out of the mountain again to lead the army, and finally saw Zhao Erfeng's sincere attitude and blindly humble, the two stopped being polite, and no longer insisted on fulfilling the compromise opinions of the alliance, and both Zhao Erfeng and Xiao Yimin said goodbye.

Zhao Erfeng and Xiao Yimin sent each other politely, Luo Lun and the others said that they would not let Zhao Erfeng send it again, Zhao Erfeng politely turned around and entered, and went to the big study with Xu Weiyue to continue eating.

Luo Lun grabbed Xiao Yimin's sleeve, walked to the front yard, stopped at the courtyard gate, and immediately issued a solemn invitation:

"As soon as it sounds, the entire Sichuan army has been divided, so we won't talk about it, just say that the various armies currently stationed inside and outside Chengdu are simply independent and unpredictable! However, within the new army, although there are many contradictions, but with General Zhu in control of the situation, there is no big problem, your Zhenzi battalion is strictly disciplined, the order is prohibited, and it has been silently supporting our Baolu Association and the Alliance Association, we are very relieved, but the more and more people gathered have reached 2,000 people of the city defense army is a big hidden danger

"These soldiers have no organization at all, and there are more than 1,000 officers and soldiers of the Fengshan Department loyal to the Manchu court in the west of the city, as well as more than 20,000 Manchu and Mongolian people, all of whom are the source of turmoil! Even we have a headache for this matter, and after repeated consultations, we unanimously agreed that the military and political affairs cannot be without you, Xiao Yimin! ”

Xiao Yimin smiled: "Say, brother, what title do you give your little brother?" ”

"Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, how's it going?" Luo Lun looked at Xiao Yimin nervously.

Zhu Qinglan, who was standing next to him, saw Xiao Yimin contemplating his eyebrows, and immediately stepped forward and said apologetically: "Brother Yiming, the post of minister has been decided to be done by Yin Changheng, chief of staff of the new army, and we have been arguing internally for a long time about this matter, but in the end, everyone's opinion is still inclined to the older and more active Chief of Staff Yin Changheng, who is really wronged brother." ”

Xiao Yimin politely replied:

"Where can a revolution talk about so many human feelings? Chief of Staff Yin Changheng is already more senior than the younger brother, and he has actively participated in the movement that lasted for several months, and has made great contributions, no matter in which aspect, he is more qualified and justified than the younger brother to serve as the Minister of Military Affairs, the younger brother can become the deputy minister is already unexpected, overjoyed, the two brothers don't need to be so nervous at all, do you still not believe the younger brother? ”

"Nonsense! You turtle son likes to tease. ”

Luo Lun scolded with a smile, the big stone in his heart finally landed, with Xiao Yimin's clear attitude and strong support, the establishment of the new deal axe and the stability of Chengdu City are more certain.

Zhu Qinglan took Xiao Yimin's hand, shook it tightly, and said with emotion: "If only every one of our comrades had Yiming's mind!" Yiming, the inaugural meeting of the new political axe will be held at three o'clock in the afternoon at the Chengnan Advisory Bureau, you have to come on time! ”

"Definitely!"

Xiao Yimin put the two of them into the carriage, and the carriage drove out of the street corner, the smile on Xiao Yimin's face disappeared instantly, turned around and returned to the courtyard, and soon appeared beside Zhao Erfeng and Xu Weiyue, and sat down to tell the two elders about the matter.

Zhao Erfeng nodded slightly and continued to pick up vegetables, Xu Weiyue stroked the three-inch thick beard and analyzed it carefully:

"If both adults and Yiming refuse to serve as the new political axe, they will definitely be suspected and even plotted by those people, maybe the inaugural meeting in the afternoon will have to be rescheduled, now we have a chance to appreciate how those romantic characters appear!

"I just don't know what the leaders of the Baolu armies in Yucheng, southern Sichuan, western Sichuan, and northern Sichuan will think? I'm afraid that a large group of people who are determined to win many new deal axe positions are still on the way, and they can't catch up with this feast in Chengdu! ”

Zhao Erfeng couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard it.

Xiao Yimin's smile is full of sorrow, the end of the party was killed, the army into Sichuan was wiped out, there is no worries about the heroes of Sichuan from all walks of life will definitely gather in Chengdu, whether it is for the revolution or the righteousness between the brothers, in the past few months, they have really killed a world, and made their own contribution to the great cause of Baolu, now that the external threat is lifted, things have been done, how to sit in a row and divide the fruit, once the inaugural meeting held in Chengdu in the afternoon did not take into account the interests of all aspects, I'm afraid that there will be endless arguments and even fights.

"What's on your mind?" Zhao Erfeng asked.

Xiao Yimin nodded: "The students are worried that a larger scale of civil strife is about to break out, if the people of the League can calm down and think about it carefully, they will not rush to set up a new political axe at this time." First of all, since April, no taxes have been paid in the province, and the three million left by Shi Bo to his successor governor Wang Wenwen before leaving Chengdu have been consumed by the yamen at all levels and the new army, and most of them have gone into the pockets of officials at all levels. Without military salaries, eating is a problem, how to stabilize the morale of the army and stabilize the situation in Chengdu? ”

Zhao Erfeng and Xu Weiyue put down their chopsticks and listened very carefully to Xiao Yimin's analysis.

Xiao Yimin continued: "Secondly, the Sichuan-Han Railway is completely finished, and more than 20 million people have disappeared in a blink of an eye, and it is impossible to come back, but it is the people of Sichuan who are really suffering!" The students are sure that no matter how much the Baolu Association and the Alliance swear to repay the loan to the people, it is all a deceptive propaganda for the immediate purpose, thus burying huge hidden dangers, and I believe that it will soon arouse public resentment again. Moreover, except for a few scholars who cherish the people, most of the leaders of the Baolu Army in Sichuan are the leaders of the gangs in various places, and even the ** boss who occupies the mountains and fishes in troubled waters, and they have contributed to the armed struggle to respond to the call of the League and seize power in various counties in the past few months.

"Taking a step back and analyzing, this group of people still can't earn power by making trouble, and they will definitely return to their hometowns with their respective teams to claim the king and hegemony under resentment. This so-called revolution now looks like a complete farce! ”

Xu Weiyue and Zhao Erfeng couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly after listening to and pondering carefully.

Zhao Erxun stroked his long beard and looked at his proud disciple with appreciation, his eyes were full of relief: "Wei Yue, Yiming is mature, thoughtful and thorough, it seems that the old man can return to the mountains and forests to enjoy his happiness."

Xu Weiyue admired from the bottom of his heart, and said generously with a blazing gaze: "My lord, Yiming will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future, Weiyue is convinced of this!" ”

Zhao Erfeng nodded again and again, seeing Xiao Yimin respectfully pouring himself wine, he suddenly felt that it was not a difficult thing to retreat.
