Wang Huai was commanding at the camp gate at this time, and when he saw that the other party was retreating, he hurriedly commanded the army to chase and kill, and at this time, Qiao Yu also rushed to the firefight site under the protection of many guards.

"How's it going, are there any casualties?"

Wang Huai looked at the dead and wounded brothers, and suddenly his face was a little ugly, the two sides exchanged fire for half an hour, leaving a large number of corpses of the civilian army outside the camp, and the first brigade also suffered a lot of losses, the number of casualties has reached more than two hundred, mainly killed when shooting at each other, highlighting the shortcomings of the Sichuan army that have no experience in battle, but with the increase in the number of battles, this army can definitely mature quickly!

"Governor, more than a hundred brothers have been killed in battle, and there are many seriously wounded, and the losses are not small!"

"Well, you have done a good job, the army itself lacks actual combat tests, there will be this, that kind of problem, I didn't expect the civilian army to launch a surprise attack tonight, but the soldiers are very brave and thwarted the attempt of the civilian army, but also keep in mind the lesson, any camping, you must arrange enough guards, not only sentinels, but also set up perfect fortifications, with a certain amount of protection, it will not be so passive!"

Wang Huai hurriedly nodded and said yes, the construction of the army cannot be successful overnight, nor can it be completed by one or two people, Qiao Yu knows that what he lacks most now is a group of officers with very high quality, and quickly improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but everything must be done step by step, and it is very good to be able to achieve the current point

Soon the Sichuan army took the initiative to pursue, the people's army was completely defeated, a company captured more than 600 people, another 1,000 people were scattered, hundreds of people were killed and wounded, 3,000 people's elite was wiped out in one fell swoop, and finally found Wang Tianjie's body in the pile of dead, it turned out that Wang Tianjie happened to have a shell exploding around him when he was escaping, and dozens of wounds were cut by shrapnel, and he died on the spot.

After a simple cleaning of the battlefield, Qiao Yu hurriedly commanded his soldiers to pounce on Luzhou City, it was only one or two o'clock at this time, and it was only about three o'clock in the morning when he arrived at Luzhou City.

Wu Yuzhang felt a burst of heart when he attacked Wang Tianjie in the city, and in the middle of the night, he heard the gunfire in the camp, and the cannon sounded, Wu Yuzhang knew that Wang Tianjie did not carry artillery for the convenience of the sneak attack, and now this situation can only show that Wang Tianjie's sneak attack failed, and sure enough, many defeated soldiers fled back to the city soon, and then got the report that Qiao Yu waved his army to attack Luzhou City, and suddenly Wu Yuzhang was a little distracted.

His leading talent is still under Wang Tianjie, and the elite in his hands has been taken away by Wang Tianjie, can this little person under his command stop Qiao Yu's army now? Wu Yuzhang knew very well in his heart that this was undoubtedly hitting the stone with an egg and killing himself, so when Qiao Yu opened artillery to bombard Luzhou City, Wu Yuzhang fled directly with his cronies and gave Luzhou away.

As soon as Wu Yuzhang left, the Constitutional Party in Luzhou City soon raised the white flag to welcome Qiao Yu's army into the city, as soon as Qiao Yu entered Luzhou, he directly mobilized all kinds of public opinion and began to bombard the Kuomintang without peace sincerity, he had promised that everything could be discussed, and he also promised to give up the position of governor, sincerely hoping that all walks of life in southern Sichuan could join the new political axe and serve the people of Sichuan, and regarded Wang Tianjie and others as real revolutionary heroes, but Wang Tianjie blatantly launched an attack that night, and hundreds of soldiers died innocently.

The League is undoubtedly because of its own selfishness, in the division of Sichuan, completely disregarding the well-being of the Sichuan people, completely ignoring the overall situation of overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty, is a blasphemy of the revolution, but also a betrayal of those dead people, Qiao Yu also put forward at the end of his speech that he believes that this is just a small number of revolutionary party wrong practices, the revolutionary party of the people with lofty ideals is still really for the people, Qiao Yu still hopes that Sichuan can end the split as soon as possible, unified, and Qiao Yu can also completely give up the position of governor, everything is precious.

After people saw this speech, they praised Qiao Yu's selfless attitude, scolded the people's army for being shameless, and started the war at will, whether it was the military and political axe or the people's army, the purpose was to overthrow the rule of the Qing court, and now is the critical moment, but the people's army took the initiative to attack friendly forces, which is really despicable.

Of course, there are people who understand, no matter how good you Qiao Yu said, it's useless, the military and political axes are all established by you, and you naturally occupy the first opportunity, how can the power in your hands be easily let out, there is nothing wrong with the people's army choosing to raid, what is wrong is that it failed, but what ordinary people think is very simple, after Qiao Yu announced the abolition of the centijin, the policy of limiting rent and interest, the people's hearts are largely on his side, when Qiao Yu has the halo of serving the country and the people, he is naturally the enemy of the people. Moreover, it was the people's army who did it first, so it was even more ill-intentioned.

The local armies that were originally attached to the people's army have dispersed, which has greatly reduced the power of the people's army, and the people's army's salary has been relatively tight, and many soldiers have been in arrears for a long time.

Zhang Peijue, Zhu Zhihong, Xie Zhi and others sat around to discuss ways to solve the current dilemma, in fact, everyone is also very clear in their hearts, nothing more than a lack of money, in fact, during this period of time, the people's army conquered the city, seized a lot of materials and silver, and also suppressed a large number of bureaucrats loyal to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, of course, there are also unjust, false and wrongful cases, but the people's army still raised a lot of silver.

The key is that almost all of this silver is used to buy arms, medicines, food and other materials, it can be said that a large part of it fell into Qiao Yu's hands, and now the people's army is naturally extremely difficult, and Wu Yuzhang was defeated and fled, and Wang Tianjie's death in battle was not only the loss of more than 10,000 people's soldiers, but also the subtle changes in people's hearts.

Originally, everyone followed the Kuomintang to oppose the Qing Dynasty, but now another force has risen, and it is more effective and more disciplined, and since the Baolu Movement, the local wealthy businessmen have received a lot of harassment, suffered heavy losses, and urgently need to restore order, and it is obvious that abandoning the Kuomintang has become a consensus, and the plight of the People's Army is obvious.

Xie Zhi first broke the silence and said: "Cangbai, the soldiers can't pay the silver but they are going to mutiny, several merchants who promised to provide us with supplies before have suspended the supply under the pretext of transportation difficulties and inconvenient turnover, and now there is a serious shortage of arms, food, and silver, if you don't think of a good way, you really can't maintain it!" ”

Several people looked at each other, everyone knew the difficulties Xie Zhi said, but the problem was how to solve it, Zhang Peijue suddenly spoke: "Why don't we give up southern Sichuan, march directly into Chengdu, and seize Chengdu in front of Qiao Yu, now that the Qing court has lost power, Zhao Erfeng's troops have shrunk around Chengdu, if we capture Chengdu now, we may be able to gain a political advantage, and then we will have the capital to confront Qiao Yu!" ”

Yang Shukan shook his head, "The idea is good, the key is that the army of Duanfang is still in Zizhou, and Zhao Erfeng is not easy to deal with, there is no money, no arms, I am afraid that our team will collapse before Chengdu!" ”

"Cangbai, what do you think we should do with the ticket number Qianzhuang?" Zhu Zhihong proposed.

The alliance will discuss the way out, and Qiao Yu is also meeting an important guest, that is, Lu Wanqing's father, Lu Nai, one of the big salt merchants in southern Sichuan, since Lu Wanqing arrived in Yucheng, Qiao Yu found an opportunity to write a letter to Lu Nai, informing her of the situation, after all, you can't let your parents worry in vain.

Since Lu Nai got the news of his daughter, he suddenly had an indescribable feeling, Qiao Yu is a powerful faction in Yucheng, with an army and power, if such a person can make friends, it is naturally good, but his own girl is so unexplained to be a secretary to others, he is influenced by the West, and he doesn't care about his daughter going out to work, but what do others think, one person can drown you with a mouthful of foam.

I didn't hear that Qiao Yu had arrived in Luzhou, Lu Nai hurriedly rushed from Fushun's house to Luzhou to meet Qiao Yu!
