Chapter 321: Rebellion
Xu Dabiao was holding a fire in his belly, and he said without thinking about it: "The boss doesn't want you to protect it, what's the matter, now that people are starving to death and freezing to death, what are you afraid of?" Paralyzed, those big people eat and drink well in the city, spend all day drinking and playing with women, and leave Lao Tzu here to drink the northwest wind, okay, you don't think of a way for our brothers, Lao Tzu can't watch his brothers freeze to death and starve to death, Lao Tzu will find a way by himself, brothers, come with me, Lao Tzu will take you to eat fragrant and drink spicy food, Lao Tzu still doesn't believe it, there is a gun in his hand and no food to eat! β
When the middle-aged officer heard this, he immediately chased him out, "Xu Dabiao, you come back for me, you are not allowed to go out, you will come back for me!" β
No one paid attention to him, and Xu Dabiao and the others quickly disappeared.
The provisional government was established, and during this time, in order to show the difference from the reign of the Qing court, the provisional government ordered that the city gates should not be closed all night, and the people could enter and exit freely, and Xu Dabiao and others provided an opportunity.
Xu Dabiao with hundreds of his men, all with guns, came to the city gate, although the provisional government announced that the people can enter and exit freely, but it does not mean that the army can freely enter and exit the city, and it is also an army of hundreds of people, the platoon commander guarding the city gate immediately walked to the city gate and shouted: "What part are you?" Don't enter the city at this time without an order, hurry back! β
Xu Dabiao, these hundreds of people are really hungry, and people have already lost their dignity and reason when they are extremely hungry, who cares about military discipline at this time? Fill your stomach and wear it" to warm up and then talk about it.
Hearing the platoon commander's shout, Xu Dabiao didn't think about it, pulled out the box gun and fired two shots in succession, and the platoon commander standing at the city gate was immediately shot and fell to the ground. Xu Dabiao held the box cannon and shouted: "Brothers, rush in to eat and drink spicy." Grab money, grab food, grab women! β
"Rush, grab money, food, and women!" Heard Xu Dabiao's slogan. These big men and coarse people were immediately aroused by primitive desires and hopes, and rushed towards the city one by one.
The soldiers of a platoon guarding the city gate saw that the platoon commander was killed, and these rebels wanted to rush into the city, and immediately opened fire with the guns in their hands, and a heavy machine gun in the fortification at the city gate immediately opened fire, and the platoon of rebels who rushed to the front fell to the ground instantly, but this did not frighten these rebels, but aroused their ferocity and blood, at such a close distance. After the first two rows of rebels were killed, the heavy machine gunner was finally hit by a bullet and died, and the rebels frantically rushed up to snatch the heavy machine gun, and hundreds of rebels instantly overwhelmed the other city gate soldiers.
A platoon of soldiers was all killed in two minutes, and then Xu Dabiao rushed into the city with the red-eyed rebels, and after stopping in the middle of the street, Xu Dabiao looked at the shops on both sides, and some of the shops had their doors open and the faΓ§ade was lit. He immediately said: "Brothers, why can those officials and masters eat fragrant and drink spicy food, and Lao Tzu can only suffer from cold and starvation? Rob Lao Tzu, as many as you want. Treasure of gold and silver, grain, women, thick clothes, whatever we plundered, we went back to the south. Never stay in this place where birds don't again! β
"Did you hear what the head of the regiment said? It's all open! β
The rebels scattered in a hurry, and groups of three and five rushed into shops and houses. Suddenly there was a whole chaos near the western gate, and soon it spread to the middle of the city.
At this time, Xiao Zhenlei was dealing with military and political documents in the General Staff. Jiang Baili walked in quickly with a stern face and said: "Huanyu, something is wrong, I just got the news that a group of rebels rushed into the city and were looting near the west of the city, and under the influence of this gang of rebels, the armies from all over the west began to be chaotic and rushed into the city one after another, the situation is not optimistic!" β
"What?" Xiao Zhenlei's face was extremely ugly when he heard this, he got up and said: "I knew that something would go wrong sooner or later, I didn't expect it to come so quickly, I immediately ordered the guard regiment to immediately dispatch to guard the intersection leading to the presidential palace and various ministry organs, if there are rebels rushing towards the provisional government organs, they will all be killed, and send a telegram to Yao Cheng's Department of the Fourth Division of the Soviet Army and Sun Mingbu of the Sixth Division outside the city, ordering them to lead their troops to quickly surround the garrison camps outside the city, forcibly disarm, and call Zhu Xi, the commander of the First Division of the Soviet Army, and ask him to urgently lead his troops into the city to quell the chaos, If the soldiers who encounter the robbery are all disarmed and arrested, if they resist, they will be killed, call the police station, inform all the police officers of the police station to assemble immediately, martial law in the whole process, strictly prohibit anyone from wandering in the streets, let them set up checkpoints at various traffic intersections, arrange patrols to patrol the streets, and if they find suspicious people, they will be arrested immediately, and the rest of the departments shall not be transferred without authorization, and those who violate military law will be engaged in it, I will now take a company to the presidential palace, and I will hand it over to you here, and if there is a situation, call me immediately."
Now only Zhu Xi's first division is the closest to the west of the city, and the first division is his descendant unit, which is trustworthy.
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Jiang Fangzhen said and quickly turned around and left.
After Xiao Zhenlei left, he immediately rushed to the presidential palace with a company of guards, and a company quickly assembled outside the staff headquarters, and immediately jumped into a jeep and drove towards the president after Xiao Zhenlei arrived, and the soldiers of a company followed behind in several trucks and heavy machine guns.
At this time, the west of the city was completely chaotic, and even the middle of the city showed some signs of chaos, but due to the timely dispatch of the guard regiment, the riot was still stopped in the western part of the city, and all the rebels who rushed to the middle of the city were all suppressed by the guard regiment.
When Xiao Zhenlei rushed to the presidential palace with a guard company, the presidential palace had already strengthened its sentry, and the officers on duty saw Xiao Zhenlei leading his troops over and immediately ran over and saluted: "Sir! β
Xiao Zhenlei got out of the car and nodded and returned a military order: "There are riots in the west of the city, and there is a turmoil, for the safety of the presidential palace, from now on, martial law will begin inside and outside the presidential palace, and anyone who enters and exits must strictly check their documents, and no one is allowed to enter with weapons. β
"Yes, sir!"
Leaving this officer to help the deputy commander of the guard company arrange the cordon, Xiao Zhenlei took the guard company commander and a few soldiers into the presidential palace, and soon met the president Sun Wen and Huang Xing and others.
"Great President!" Xiao Zhenlei stood up and saluted.
Sun Wen hurriedly stepped forward and asked anxiously, "Huanyu, it's good that you're here, what happened outside?" Why is there such a big movement in the middle of the night, and why are there gunshots everywhere? β
Xiao Zhenlei said: "President, I have already sent someone to investigate, and now I have ordered the city to be under full martial law, and the guard regiment has been dispatched to guard the various intersections nearby and not allow any rebels to rush over." I also brought a company of guards to strengthen the security of the presidential palace, and the security of the presidential palace can be guaranteed without any problems. According to reliable sources, this should be a riot broke out in the foreign army outside the west of the city, may be related to the noise, hundreds of rebels rushed into the city from the west gate and burned and looted in the west of the city, affected by this group, other foreign troops were also driven, in order to prevent a large-scale mutiny, I have ordered the first division of the Soviet army to enter the city to quell the chaos, and at the same time ordered the fourth and sixth divisions of the Soviet army to surround the foreign troops outside the city and forcibly disarm them, so as to quell the chaos as quickly as possible! β
Sun Wen and the others were immediately relieved when they heard this, but before the mutiny was quelled, these people present still did not dare to be careless.
Soon after, the general and deputy ministers of various ministries and the principal officials of various organs of the provisional government rushed to the presidential palace to check the situation, and after entering the presidential palace through many checkpoints, they were relieved to see that Sun Wen and others were safe and sound, but at this time no one wanted to leave, and at this time only in the presidential palace was the safest, if even the presidential palace was not safe, then other places were even less safe.
As the 1st Division of the Soviet Army entered the city to quell the chaos, the position in the west of the city became more and more chaotic, and the gunfire became more and more dense, and even the whole city was in an uproar, and the streets were full of police and soldiers patrolling, and the rebels who were robbing in the west of the city were unwilling to be caught, and clashed with the soldiers who put down the chaos, and shooting could not be avoided, but these chaotic soldiers were quickly captured in front of the first division, which was organized, and had extremely high combat quality and was well-equipped.
Outside the city, the 4th and 6th Divisions of the Soviet Army were dispatched in a timely manner, preventing other foreign Cointreaux from following and launching a mutiny to rush into the city, and surrounded more than 20,000 troops from all over the country, forcibly confiscated their weapons and equipment, and gathered them for detention.
At dawn, the riots were finally quelled, but martial law was still not touched, and it was not until noon that Xiao Zhenlei ordered to contact martial law, but the first division of the Soviet army was left in the city to garrison, and patrols were arranged to patrol the streets to prevent another looting.
Xiao Zhenlei came to the presidential palace with a stern face and came to the presidential palace to ask to see Sun Wen, "President, the results of the investigation have come out, the first to riot was a regiment of the Guangdong army, the regiment commander is called Xu Dabiao, there are six or seven hundred people under his command, he first shot and killed the platoon commander of the West City Gate guard, and then killed all the soldiers of this platoon and rushed into the city, under their influence, more than 1,000 people of the Hunan army also rushed into the city, and the other troops who rioted stopped them in time due to the appearance of the fourth and sixth divisions of the Soviet army without causing damageAccording to statistics, a total of 121 houses were burned down, 643 civilians were killed, 326 women were insulted, more than 2,000 shops were looted, and the loss was more than 6 million taels! β
Hu Hanmin, the governor of Guangdong, was extremely embarrassed, the Yue army was his subordinate, he didn't expect that it was the Yue army who rioted first this time, but he was not good at helping the Yue army speak at this time. However, other political opponents would not miss such a good opportunity, and many demanded that all the soldiers and officers who rioted should be executed. (To be continued......) R1292
