On August 6, 1913, Han Zheng received a letter in his hand, the main content of which was four words, that is, "Extinguish the force and stop the war!" "And the payment is a paragraph.

Han Zheng looked at the simple letter in his hand, his brows furrowed, and his hands held the paper even harder.

Things are already very clear, it seems that the north has seen its own rapid development, has been a little unable to sit still, although he has not yet shown signs of threatening anyone, but obviously these are no longer enough, no matter how loyal he is to the north, it seems that he can't extinguish the strange eyes of the north.

Speaking of which, the reason for this is still very simple, when the fighting on Han Zheng's side was in full swing, the infiltration of the north into the south finally had an effect, and it was already said that Hu Wantai, who was moving in the south, would have a military mutiny in the next two days.

And the most fundamental condition reached by the two sides is that the north recognizes the legitimacy of Hu Wantai to take over the governor of Anhui, and divides the north and the south with the north in Bengbu.

In this way, Han Zheng looked at the letter in his hand, and then he hesitated, and watched the fat pig in his hand being taken away, which was unbearable for anyone!

However, obviously the north did not expect Han Zheng to occupy Bengbu so quickly, but for Han Zheng, since this place is already his own, he will naturally not spit it out again!

His current strength is insufficient, which will be subject to the north, and in desperation, Han Zheng can choose to give in temporarily, but Bengbu is a place, don't want to hand it over, and he still has the name of playing the northern Anhui patrol envoy!

At this time, Han Zheng was also secretly glad that he decisively seized the opportunity this time and launched an attack on Bengbu, otherwise he wouldn't want to cross the Bengbu line this time!

And if Han Zheng wants to turn his face with the north now, he doesn't have the slightest confidence, the most important thing is that his strength is insufficient, so he can only give up.

Han Zheng ravaged the letter in his hand, threw it into the trash can next to him, and then burned it with some unused documents.

After less than two days of rest, Chen Feng and others suddenly received an order from Han Zheng to launch all the attacks on the areas under the jurisdiction of Bengbu and completely occupy the entire Bengbu.

After the armies received the order, there was the slightest delay, the three main regiments, more than half of the troops were arranged out, and the southern army in the surrounding areas was constantly swept away, and then took over the various areas below Bengbu, and in less than a few days, it had completely controlled Bengbu.

Sure enough, soon news came from the north and reprimanded Han Zheng, but in the face of the situation in Bengbu, he had to admit Han Zheng's leadership jurisdiction over Bengbu.

At the same time, this also laid a good foundation for Han Zheng to fight for the next pace of construction and won enough time for development.

After the North recognized Han Zheng's current position, Han Zheng began to show enough respect for the North in order to win his own time and space for development, and he wanted to convince the North that he was loyal enough to the North

On August 9, 1913, news finally came from the south, and all the big figures in the south did not seem to have thought of Hu Wantai's rebellion, which was too great a blow to them.

In this second revolution, the governor has always supported revolutionary actions, but this 'staunch' revolutionary was expelled by his subordinates, and the impact can be imagined, especially when they flaunted their revolutionary righteousness and victory all day long, which was undoubtedly a big slap in the face of the southern princes.

After the second revolution sank in Shanghai and Anhui, it could go downhill inevitably.

What Han Zheng didn't expect was that he had started to be a new, young general this time, and was mentioned by some newspapers and given a certain amount of space, especially now that Shanghai has been taken over by the north, and even the fact that Han Zheng had stayed in Shanghai has been revealed.

Perhaps in order to show its vitality, or perhaps to inspire people's hearts, Han Zheng, who was only in his early twenties, was turned out by major newspapers and then publicized as the new coordinates of Beiyang.

With such a high position at a young age, coupled with the experience of going abroad and his ever-expanding strength, Han Zheng gradually began to appear on the stage of history after this time, and slowly entered the list of agents that the various powers were looking for in the East.

At this time, Han Zheng didn't know that he was going to be famous, and because of this, when Han Zheng returned to Wuyang on August 16, he saw a group of people he didn't expect.

In 1913, after a short period of turmoil, Shanghai regained its calm and gradually regained its charm.

In the troubled times, the prosperity of this place seems to be incompatible with the beacon fire and chaos all over the country, for the people of Shanghai, no matter who takes over Shanghai, they are the same life, no one is willing and dares to break the prosperity and richness of this place under the nose of foreigners.

Since coming to Shanghai, Jiang Baili has dismissed all his subordinates, and only Zhang Wu, who insisted on following Jiang Baili, is left.

When Jiang Baili and Zhang Wu left their jobs at that time, Yuan Shikai was not stingy, and gave Jiang Baili nearly 1,000 yuan in travel expenses, which was enough for the two to live in Shanghai for a period of time.

In the past half a year, their lives have indeed been considered comfortable, the only thing they are dissatisfied with is that as a soldier, now they are in this kind of place where they spend time and drink, which makes Zhang Wu a little uncomfortable, but Jiang Baili visits some guests every day, and then writes down some of his own experiences and ideas about military training, but also regards this time as an opportunity to learn.

Recently, Zhang Wu was a little confused, and Jiang Baili had already noticed it, so Jiang Baili already had an idea in his heart.

This matter has to start from the day of 26 July, when Zhang Wu attended a drinking party with Jiang Baili, but at that time he met a local bank entrepreneur in Shanghai, and Zhang Wu did not like to chat with others on such occasions, but when this person knew that he was an instructor from the Baoding Military Academy, he had to pull himself to say a few words.

Later, from the other party's conversation, Zhang Wu knew why the other party was so happy after knowing his identity, because at this time, the other party's mouth was full of praise for his future son-in-law, and the other party was also from Baoding!

Originally, Zhang Wu didn't care, and even a little funny, this entrepreneur who was bent on pulling people for his son-in-law seemed a little cute at this time.

But there are also a lot of questions in my heart, which one of the other party's golden beetle son-in-law is Baoding? Han Zheng couldn't help but ask this question.

But what happened next was quite dramatic.

In the other party's somewhat smug tone, Zhang Wu finally knew who the golden beetle son-in-law in the other party's mouth was!

And the result also surprised that Zhang Wu, who originally thought that he had heard it wrong, but after questioning, he found out that it was determined that the other party's golden beetle son-in-law was his own student Han Zheng who had been separated for more than three years!

At that time, he was a little moved, but he didn't tell Li Yiru about his province, but after going back, he told Jiang Baili the news, Jiang Baili was not surprised, but smiled meaningfully and said: "The students who came out of our class are also the most promising, it seems that we didn't look away at that time." ”

"Then why" Zhang Wu opened his mouth to ask, but before he could finish speaking, Jiang Baili said directly: "Do you want to ask me if I already knew?" Hey, I know about it, and I only found out about it after the big boss who spoke to you found me and told me about it. ”

"As for later, I also secretly helped Han Zheng a little, didn't you ask me how to contact the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau a while ago? It's not for this kid's equipment. ”

"But at that time, this kid was just a small local governor who was in danger of his own life, although I was a little skeptical when he bought equipment here, but I didn't expect him to get to this point. The reason why I didn't tell you was because you couldn't help but talk nonsense at that time, this was Chen Dudu's territory at that time, and several of our students also came here often, so they didn't show their bottom. ”

On this day, Zhang Wu and Jiang Baili had a conversation in the study for a long time.

Zhang Wu was also at this time, and finally knew why the middle-aged man found himself in Huishang, the other party had already known his identity, and just took this opportunity, so he said the matter, obviously under the guise of soliciting himself.

At the same time, Zhang Wu was also a little happy for Han Zheng in his heart, and it was a big help to have such a future father-in-law who thought about him wholeheartedly!

Later, around August 10, the news of Han Zheng was suddenly publicized by the newspapers in Shanghai, and the other party could be seen in the streets and alleys.

On the third day after that study conversation, a group of people came out of Jiang Baili's residence, including Zhang Wu, and several young people behind Zhang Wu, if Han Zheng was there, would definitely find that these people were the students who had returned with him from Germany and were stranded in Shanghai later!

And the only one who didn't have one in this group was Jiang Baili.

On the evening of August 13, 1913, these people appeared again on a freighter carrying goods to Wuyang, and Li Yiru was left with a happy face in Shanghai. (To be continued.) )
