Chapter Ninety-Five: Runaway General Huang Xing
Now Xiong Kewu only felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart and enveloped his whole body, he was completely fooled, the other party gave him the power to collect the people's army is just a trick to take the first, and now he exaggerates the combat effectiveness of the people's army, but in fact, he knows what the current situation of the people's army is, he wants money or no money, he wants weapons without weapons, and there is only one way to send such an army to Wuhan to death, and the revolutionary party forces in Sichuan will also be purged by others, it seems that he has miscalculated.
"Now Wuchang is in danger, there is a danger of being broken at any time, the soldiers are fast, I suggest that Minister Xiong leave immediately, and the military and political axes will also give financial support, I suggest that two million yuan of silver be allocated, and at the same time prepare 15,000 rifles, plus some machine guns and cannons, and immediately form a reinforcement army, Jinfan will bother you with everything!"
Qiao Yu directly forced Xiong Kewu into the corner this time, he only felt that Qiao Yu seemed to stretch out his big hand and pinch him directly on the neck, and it became harder and harder, forcing Xiong Kewu to breathe at all!
"The people's army still needs training, I think it's okay to call in the first division or the soldiers and horses of the original seventeen towns!" Xiong Kewu retorted, wouldn't he wait to be slaughtered if he brought a group of rabble to Wuhan, so he proposed to bring other troops to go, but where would Qiao Yu and his party give him this opportunity.
"Minister Xiong just said that the people's army is worthy of a war, why did he take back his words now, is it a child's play to treat military affairs as child's play?" Qiao Zhen also spoke.
"Minister Xiong has reversed his word, it is really untrustworthy, Mr. Huang Xing has sent reports to the provinces several times, asking for reinforcements, I think as a supporter of Mr. Huang, Minister Xiong should be responsible!" Wu Tong originally had some good feelings for the Kuomintang, but from the Wuchang Shouyi to the present, the revolutionary party has often failed enough to succeed and failed, and it is arrogant.
Yu Peilun also felt that things were not good at this time, he thought things simple, but he noticed the silver and ammunition that Qiao Yu promised to provide, and he was immediately happy in his heart, if he could get all these in his hands, it would be enough to organize a decent army temporarily, and now Huang Xing is also extremely short of money, and it is completely okay to be able to get the money.
"Let me say a few words, since everyone thinks that Wuchang should be aided, I think this matter is also feasible, Brother Jinfan as the commander-in-chief, I also fully support, but the situation of the civilian army is clear to everyone, if we can allocate the silver and arms first, as long as the training is ten days and a half months, we will act immediately!"
Xiong Kewu has no way to refute it when he sees it, but it is not bad to get silver and arms, two million yuan is a lot, so he is ready to retreat this time.
"What Brother Yun Ji said makes sense, but the war changes too quickly, if you wait for another ten days and a half months, I am afraid that the three towns of Wuhan have all been lost, I think so, the previous end of the army marched into Sichuan with an Hubei army, and now this Hubei army has been confiscated and is still in Zizhou, immediately organized, led by two to march into Wuhan, and then leave Yang Shukan to train the army in Sichuan, as the second gradient, after the army is trained, it will go out of Sichuan immediately!"
Everything is clear now, Qiao Yu just wants to drive them out of Sichuan, and even the army is ready, it is the Hubei army brought into Sichuan by Duanfang, everyone knows what the army looks like, and the army's heart has long been dissipated, but now it is the best arrangement to use the Hubei army to aid Hubei, Qiao Yu is so vicious, even these tens of thousands of militia can't be brought out, what does it mean to leave Yang Shu as the second echelon, the ghost knows if Qiao Yu will send troops out of Sichuan again.
"Since it's called a committee, let's vote by a show of hands! Agree with Minister Xiong's raise of hands to send troops to Hubei! Qiao Yu didn't wait for Xiong Kewu to refute, he directly ordered to raise his hand, and soon Qiao Yu, Qiao Zhen, Zhu Qinglan, and Wu Tong all raised their hands, and there were only eight people seated, accounting for half of them in an instant, and among the remaining four, Yin Changheng's attitude was very critical, Yin Changheng, who thought that he would fall to Qiao Yu without any doubt, did not raise his hand immediately, but lowered his head and thought about it.
Yin Changheng is tall, nicknamed Yin Changzi, he is very courageous, although Pu Dianjun has made him fall to Qiao Yu, but there is only a cooperative relationship between him and Pu Dianjun, the current situation makes Yin Changheng feel sad that the rabbit is dead, there is nothing between him and Qiao Yu, and he and Zhu Qinglan are still opponents, so to retain the power of the revolutionary party and maintain the balance of Sichuan, in order to get the greatest benefits.
Thinking of this, Yin Changheng gritted his teeth and did not raise his hand, Xiong Kewu saw that it was a draw, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, it seems that there is still justice in the world, Yin Changheng actually supported himself, and when he saw this, Xiong Kewu immediately regained his self-confidence.
At this moment, the other hand suddenly raised, it was Yang Shukan, and the situation was reversed in an instant, five to three! Qiao Yu's proposal was successfully passed, Xiong Kewu and Yu Peilun led the troops out of Sichuan is a foregone conclusion, Xiong Kewu, who has been very angry since coming to Sichuan, only feels a complete failure at this time, he has always underestimated his opponent, and there are traitors in his camp, which is the last thing he can bear.
Yu Peilun didn't expect that Yang Shukan would turn back at the critical moment, and he was also at a loss, Xiong Kewu reluctantly settled down, and stood up slowly, "The matter has come to this, I will lead the troops out of Sichuan, but all military supplies are still requested by Qiao Dudu to allocate as soon as possible!" ”
After saying that, Xiong Kewu didn't even want to look at Yang Shukan and got up and left directly, Yu Peilun also followed closely, there were only six people left in the venue, and at this time Yin Changheng was inferior to Xiong Kewu, he thought that his attitude could turn the situation around and help the revolutionary party gain a firm foothold, but he didn't know that there were traitors within the revolutionary party, which made Yin Changheng's behavior like a clown, not only did he get a higher value, but Qiao Yu and others were dissatisfied with him.
Stealing chickens and rice, Yin Changheng couldn't sit still at the venue anymore, so he had to get up and leave, Qiao Yu looked at Yin Changheng's back, snorted slightly, and turned to Yang Shukan and smiled slightly: "Mr. Cangbai has the overall situation in mind and is doing a good job!" ”
Yang Shukan was also very uncomfortable at this time, his actions were regarded as traitors by everyone, but he still had his own thoughts in his heart, and he also got up to say goodbye, Yang Shukan had just left the governor's mansion, and Yu Peilun grabbed him.
"Cangbai, how did you change?"
Yang Shukan sighed: "Yun Ji, don't you know who I Yang Shukan is, it's just that people have to bow their heads under the low eaves, presumably Xiong Jinfan doesn't even want to see me, I just want to ask you a word, even if I don't support it, the two sides are tied, if Qiao Yu launches a council to deal with you, how to deal with it, if the two sides tear their faces, he now has three divisions of troops in his hands, what should you do, it is better to obey his will and withdraw from Sichuan, and everyone will be able to see each other in the future, otherwise it will be a dead end for blood to be spattered!" ”
After Yang Shukan finished speaking, he didn't care about Yu Peilun who was standing in place, and left directly, Yu Peilun was also churning in his heart at this time, it seemed that he was thinking about things too simply, everyone was not a hot-blooded young man anymore, they all had their own interests, and in a trance, Yu Peilun actually felt a burst of desolation, and the pain in the broken arm was piercing!
Two days later, Yu Peilun, Xiong Kewu, Zhu Zhihong waited for more than 3,000 Hubei troops to go straight to the three towns of Wuhan, and when they arrived in Wuchang it was November 28th, just yesterday Hanyang was captured by the Beiyang Army, Huang Xing did not continue to defend Wuchang, but went down the river and went straight to Nanjing, saying that he was begging for reinforcements, Huang Xing ran away again, how similar to the Guangzhou Uprising half a year ago, at this time Yu Peilun only felt ridiculous, the revolution turned into a runaway!
