Chapter 152: Zhang Bailin
In a hotel in Baise, Guangxi, Zhang Bailin and Chen Shoulian, who escorted him out of Guizhou, were sitting in their rooms.
"Master Zhang, how do you feel about your health now?" Sitting opposite Zhang Bailin, Chen Shoulian said with some concern.
"It's a lot better than it was a few days ago." Saying that, Zhang Bailin rubbed his shoulders, and it was still very hard for him, a weak literati, to run all the way, so after persevering to Baise, Zhang Bailin couldn't move, and he rested for three or four days in a row until now.
"That's fine," Chen Shoulian nodded. If it really doesn't work, Lord Zhang, you can rest for two more days, now that we have reached the border of Guangxi, Guangxi is Lu Rongting's territory, no matter how bold Liu Xianshi's dog thieves are, they don't dare to chase here...
Zhang Bailin shook his head. "It's better to take care of your body as soon as possible, and then leave for Shanghai, so that Mr. Sun can come forward to administer justice earlier..."
"Mr. Sun..."Hearing Zhang Bailin say this, Chen Shoulian said with some hesitation. Mr. Zhang, do you think Mr. Sun can really uphold justice? "Chen Shoulian also knows a little about the current situation in Nanjing, and he doesn't think that Sun Yat-sen has a way to punish Liu Xianshi...
However, hearing Chen Shoulian say this, Zhang Bailin smiled bitterly. "Who else can we count on now but Mr. Sun in Nanjing?"
Hearing Zhang Bailin say this, Chen Shoulian also sighed.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the hotel. "Who?" Because it is the border of Guangxi, Chen Shoulian and Zhang Bailin have not raised much vigilance.
"May I ask if it's Mr. Zhang Bailin?" A deep male voice came from outside the door of the hotel.
Chen Shoulian and Zhang Bailin glanced at each other, although they used their real names when registering, they still couldn't figure out who was looking for them.
"It can't be Liu Xianshi's person, right?" Zhang Bailin said with some worry.
Chen Shoulian shook his head. "After all, this is the territory of Guangxi, and it is Lu Rongting's territory, no matter how bold Liu Xianshi is, he will be restrained, and if it is really their person, I am afraid that he has already kicked in the door at this time, how can he be so polite." Saying that, Chen Shoulian looked at Zhang Bailin. "My lord, do you want to open the door?"
Zhang Bailin stood up and opened the window of the room, and found that there were also a lot of black shadows shaking under the window, obviously, it was unlikely that they would jump out of the window and escape. "Now that they're ready, open the door." Zhang Bailin said with a wry smile.
"Yes..."
After taking out the pistol from his arms, Chen Shoulian opened the wooden door of the room. Outside the wooden door, more than a dozen young men in black trench coats were standing.
"Soldiers?" Chen Shoulian once served as the commander of the southern road patrol of the Qianjun Army, so he recognized at a glance that all the men in front of him were soldiers. It's just that just as he was about to point his pistols at these people, more than a dozen pistols had already been pointed at him in turn.
Looking at the muzzles of more than a dozen black holes, although Chen Shoulian had also walked on the edge of death twice, there was still a layer of fine sweat on his forehead.
"Put the gun down, don't forget our purpose..."Seeing his subordinates pointing more than a dozen pistols at others, Feng Nan shook his head with a wry smile.
After receiving the order to bring Zhang Bailin back to Sichuan, Feng Nan led a platoon of people to look for his traces, fortunately, Zhang Bailin's traces were still relatively easy to find, so after learning that he had arrived in Baise, Feng Nan led people to chase after him on fast horses.
"Who are you?" Looking at Feng Nan and the others in a black windbreaker, Zhang Bailin, who had been in the house, asked with some confusion, I don't know why, my intuition told him that these people in front of him were not Liu Xianshi's people.
"We are the Sichuan Army...", saying that, Feng Nan pushed Chen Shoulian away and walked into the room with a dozen of his subordinates. My name is Feng Nan, I used to be the adjutant of Yan Dudu, and I am now the commander of the 1st Division of the Sichuan Army..."
"Sichuan Army..."Hearing that Feng Nan was the Sichuan Army, Zhang Bailin frowned. What are you looking for from me? Although Zhang Bailin and Chen Shoulian have been fleeing all the way, he still knows about the exchange of fire between the Sichuan army and the Yunnan army in Guizhou. However, it was precisely because of this that he doubted Feng Nan's intentions.
"What are you doing..."Feng Nan shook his head, and then sat straight to his seat. I came this time on the orders of the governor and wanted to invite my husband to Sichuan as a guest. ”
"Guest?" Zhang Bailin was a little puzzled.
"Actually, to make it clear, we just want to ask you to go back to Guizhou to be the governor." Saying that, Feng Nan smiled. "Presumably you also know about the exchange of fire between us and the Dian army in Guizhou, because the Dian army has Liu Xianshi's gang, and our Sichuan army is inevitably a little unreasonable, so the governor wants to ask Mr. to go back..."
"Are you going back to be your puppet?" Zhang Bailin said with some disdain.
"The words can't be so ugly..."Feng Nan smiled "hehe". "Although you are a puppet, aren't you still the governor of Guizhou? Anyway, it's better than being sat on by someone like Liu Xianshi..."
"Liu Xianshi, that guy is at least still a Qianren..."
"Maybe..."Feng Nan poured himself a cup of tea. However, I heard that one of the conditions for Liu Xianshi to invite the Yunnan army into Guizhou was that the governor of Guizhou should be given to Tang Jiyao, the general who is now in charge of the Yunnan army..."
"What did you say?" This is not only Zhang Bailin, but even Chen Shoulian is a little unbelievable.
Looking at Zhang Bailin and Chen Shoulian's eager looks, Feng Nan just took a sip of tea before saying slowly. "Actually, it's nothing to let the Dian people be the governors, isn't the original Yang Governor our Sichuan people..."
"So what..."Zhang Bailin said a little unnaturally, and Chen Shoulian on the side also became uncomfortable.
Looking at Zhang Bailin and Chen Shoulian who looked uncomfortable, Feng Nan just smiled and didn't say anything.
In this era of serious local feelings, there are very few people who can govern a province as a person from other provinces, and the most famous of them may be Cai Yi, and Cai Yi is still a very rare governor who holds real power. As for Yang Xincheng? Although he is also the governor of other provinces, the real power is actually not in his hands, otherwise he would not personally lead the Northern Expedition of the Guizhou Army. In fact, the reason why Yang Xincheng was able to become the governor was only because he was the instructor of the first target of the Guizhou New Army (the Guizhou New Army was the first standard), plus the general office of the Guizhou Army Primary School...
And when the uprising ended and the military and political axe of Guizhou was established, the real power was really held by Zhang Bailin and other people from the province...
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, let me give you two multiple-choice questions now." As he spoke, Feng Nan raised two fingers. "One is that you voluntarily follow us back, and the other is that you are tied up by us to go back, choose one of the two."
Looking at Feng Nan's two fingers, Zhang Bailin hesitated. "Did that guy Liu Xianshi really ask Tang Jiyao to be the governor?"
"Of course, we still need your cooperation after returning to Sichuan, how can we lie to you on such a trivial matter?"
“……… I choose 1..."
