Chapter 124: Zhao Erfeng
In Wuchang Port, the gunboat that Pu Dianjun and they were riding had just docked at the dock, and Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu had already arrived with people.
"Excuse me, but Pu Dianjun Pu Boying?" After Pu Dianjun got off the gunboat, Sun Wu stepped forward and bowed.
"Exactly." Because the representative has already notified the Hubei side by telegram, there is no surprise that Pu Dianjun arrived.
Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu glanced at each other, and then Jiang Yiwu stepped forward and grabbed Pu Dianjun's hand. "I've heard the name of Pu Boying for a long time, and now I see it...... It's better to be famous than to meet..."Okay, looking at Pu Dianjun's slightly round and slightly chubby face, Jiang Yiwu admitted that he was very disobedient when he said this.
Although Pu Dianjun knew that his appearance and the words "Jun" and "Ying" were definitely not on the side, he still said with a smile. "Where, where, the two of you are really complimenting." After speaking, he looked at two people who were much more handsome than himself. "I don't know who the two are?"
"In Xia Sun Wu, the current Minister of Military Affairs of Hubei Military and Political Axe."
"Under Jiang Yiwu, the current deputy minister of military affairs of Hubei Military and Political Axe."
When Pu Dianjun heard that it was Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu, he was also shocked. If it is said that because of the Baolu Movement, Pu Dianjun is also slightly famous in the country, then Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu are not as thunderous as thunder, but they are almost the same.
"It turned out to be the second of the three martial arts of Shouyi, and I really admired the name for a long time." Although the youngest of the two is 5 or 6 years younger than him, Pu Dianjun doesn't dare to hold it up at all.
"Where, where..."Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu hurriedly said.
Just when the three of them were still there politely, a person walked out behind Pu Dianjun. "I've heard the name of the Shouyi Sanwu for a long time, and now I've seen two, but I don't know where the other one is?" What came out was a tall, thin, ordinary-looking young man in his 20s.
"You are?"
"This Yao Quan, the deputy representative of the delegation." Pu Dianjun on the side hurriedly introduced.
"It turned out to be Brother Yao." As soon as they heard that Yao Quan was the deputy representative, Sun Wu and Jiang Yiwu hurriedly bowed their hands.
"Where, where, I have heard of two big names for a long time." Yao Quan also hurriedly returned the salute.
After a little politeness, Sun Wu opened his mouth to explain. "Brother Chunshan and the governor are arranging the city defense of Wuchang, so now the work of receiving representatives from various provinces is in charge of me and Brother Bokui, please forgive me if there is any neglect."
Although the revolutionary army has now signed an armistice agreement with Yuan Shikai, no one knows whether the two sides will clash in the future, or Yuan Shikai simply took advantage of the armistice to launch a surprise attack. Now Hanyang and Hankou have been lost, and only Wuchang is left in the three towns of Wuhan, and if Wuchang is lost again, the revolutionary forces in China will be dealt a huge blow, so Li Yuanhong and Zhang Zhenwu have been discussing the matter of arming defenses these days.
"So that's the case..."Pu Dianjun and Yao Quan nodded understandingly, they didn't feel neglected.
You must know that the Minister of Military Affairs and the Deputy Minister are also the No. 2 and No. 3 figures in the entire Hubei Army, and if you deduct Li Yuanhong, the governor who is almost like a puppet, it is not impossible to say that Sun Wu is the No. 1 person in the Hubei Army.
"Come with me, and I'll arrange a place for you."
"Then please, Brother Yaoqing."

Just when Pu Dianjun and his entourage arrived in Wuchang, the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army also met in Shogunate Mountain, Xiaolingwei and Yuhuatai.
In history, at this time, the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army had already conquered the Shogunate Mountain, Xiaolingwei and Yuhuatai, and there was only one day left before the recovery of Nanjing (that is, the day Zhang Renjun escaped), but it was because of one more Zhao Erfeng that the pace of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army has stayed on the periphery of Nanjing.
Unlike Zhang Renjun, who had no other advantages except for his stubborn temper, when he was in Sichuan in his early years, Zhao Erfeng had quelled the rebellion in Tibetan Province, and he could be said to be one of the most knowledgeable governors in China.
In 1927, in the poem "The General's Sigh" created by Zhang Shizhao, Zhao Erfeng's achievements were also affirmed.
"In the late Qing Dynasty, Cen Yuan was the most famous. Is it like General Zhao, Kawabe is heroic. β
"The coup d'Γ©tat began in Xinhai, and the whole Sichuan was boiling. The thief danced the knife and mourned the world. β
And perhaps because of the long-lost battle formation, Zhao Erfeng's rickety body has become much taller.
"But the Governor is really powerful, and those revolutionary parties have no way to take our Yuhuatai at all." Looking at Zhao Erfeng who was patrolling by, a soldier from the patrol battalion sighed.
Zhang Xun knew very well how powerful Zhao Erfeng was, so when the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army attacked, he handed over all the soldiers and horses of the patrol battalion and other troops to Zhao Erfeng, and he led the Jiangfang battalion of the headquarters to garrison the area of Shogunate Mountain and Xiaolingwei.
Hearing the soldiers of the patrol battalion say this, an officer who came to Liangjiang with Zhao Erfeng boasted. "That's natural, our marshal had quelled the rebellion in Tibetan Province at the beginning, if it hadn't been transferred to Liangjiang later, even if it was Yan Guang in Sichuan, our marshal would have been able to easily pacify!"
"Really?"
"Then can there be a fake?" Hearing that the soldier of the patrol battalion seemed to be a little unconvinced, the officer was so anxious that he pulled out his military uniform, revealing a gunshot wound inside for the soldier to see. "Look at this, this is what the master left when he followed the commander to fight against the rebels in Tibet Province. Those Tibetan troops are much more powerful than the revolutionary army, especially with the terrain there, they are simply ungodly, so don't those Tibetan troops still let our marshal suppress them? Compared with the Tibetan army, these revolutionary armies can be counted as nothing! β
"Oh!!" The soldiers of the patrol battalion and a few other soldiers who came over looked at the gunshot wounds on the officer's body and exclaimed.
Seeing the appearance of several soldiers, the officer became even more proud, and hurriedly exaggerated the events of his time in Tibet Province several times before telling them.
However, when the officers and a few soldiers were blowing nonsense there, Zhao Erfeng was not as confident as his subordinates.
Although Zhao Erfeng had repelled more than a dozen attacks by the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army at Yuhuatai, he knew very well that Nanjing could no longer be defended. Since the past few days, Zhang Xun's side has been in a hurry many times, and there is not much ammunition left in the city, but the most important thing is the morale of the soldiers below.
If the officers and soldiers below are all the ones he used to fight for the Tibetan chaos, Zhao Erfeng is confident that he will drive the Jiangsu-Zhejiang coalition army outside back to his hometown, but unfortunately it is not...
And...
"Obviously occupies an absolute advantage, and will actually negotiate peace with the revolutionary party, it seems that this Yuan Shikai is also hiding evil intentions..."Located in Nanjing, many things are naturally understood. Although Zhao Erfeng himself is also in favor of negotiating peace with the revolutionary party, there is a big difference between taking the whole of Wuhan and taking the two towns but keeping one.
"The foundation of the Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years is probably about to die in the hands of this Yuan Shikai..."
