On November 5, the telegram released by Yan Guang in Sichuan quickly reached Hubei.

"Brother Song Qing, do you have any impression of this person named Yan Guang?" Hubei Hubei Military Governor's Mansion, that is, the original Consultative Bureau building. Huang Xing, who was already the commander-in-chief during the war, rubbed his aching head and asked Li Yuanhong next to him.

Huang Xing is a kind-hearted person, so he didn't despise Li Yuanhong, the governor, because he was pulled out from under the bed.

However, just four days ago, that is, on November 1, when Huang Xing had not yet become the commander-in-chief of the war, Hankou was captured by the Qing army, which hit Huang Xing, who rushed to Hankou to supervise the war on the day he arrived in Hubei...

Li Yuanhong shook his head after thinking about it. "I seem to have heard this name somewhere, but I just can't remember it..."Saying that, Li Yuanhong also wondered, where did this Yan Guang come from?

At this time, Song Jiaoren did not instigate Huang Xing to be the governor of Hunan and Hubei in person, and his friendship with Li Yuanhong was okay on face, so Li Yuanhong asked. "Escape Chu, do you know the origin of this Yan Guang?"

Song Jiaoren also thought about it carefully, and when he saw the message, he always felt that this name was very familiar.

It's just that after he filtered through the slightly famous people in organizations such as the Constitutionalists, the Alliance, and the Restoration Society, he still didn't remember who this person was.

At this time, Jiang Yiwu, who was accompanying him, said. "Could it be that Yan Guang?"

Huang Xing and the three of them were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked. "Which Yan Guang?"

"It's the one who built the road!" Unlike Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren, and Li Yuanhong, Jiang Yiwu is the president of the society, and his main task is to engage in propaganda, so he is very concerned about the news in all aspects, although the main task of this society is only to cover the members of the Wuhan New Army, but after hearing this name, Jiang Yiwu still remembered the person who caused a sensation some time ago.

"The merchant?" Song Jiaoren frowned, he had also seen the matter of "Chengqing Highway" in the newspaper many times, and the name Yan Guang also appeared frequently during that time.

But...

"A businessman? Is it possible? ”

This is also the reason why Song Jiaoren did not think of Yan Guang, not to despise businessmen, but that it is difficult for businessmen and industrialists to be associated with such things as revolution.

"I don't know, but the name Yan Guang is called in Sichuan, and I can only think of such one..."Jiang Yiwu shook his head with a wry smile, he also felt that it was really impossible for an industrialist to make a revolution, and it was a violent revolution.

"In any case, it is always a good thing that the ranks of the revolution are growing, but let's first think about how to recapture Hankow and solve the problem of the Qing army in Hanyang." When he talked about Hankou and Hanyang, the faces of everyone present sank.

And after Yuan Shikai learned the news of **, he also thought carefully about Yan Guang, a somewhat familiar name, but after thinking about it for a while, he didn't remember it and left it behind.

For Yuan Shikai, the most important task now is to promote peace by fighting, not only to hurt the revolutionary party, but also not to defeat them.

Although on November 5, Yan Guang had already announced the establishment of the Sichuan Military and Political Axe.

However, it was not until November 7, that is, two days after the establishment of the military and political axe, that Zhu Qinglan (the boss of the new army in the 17th town) who was suppressing bandits outside and the Baolu army who opposed the encirclement and suppression learned the news, and at this time, the matter of the Sichuan military and political axe was already known to everyone in the north and south of the river.

Zhu Qinglan and the members of the Baolu Army would get the news so late, all because of the time of the Baolu Movement...

The Baolu Army cut off half of Sichuan's power poles, making it impossible for the whole of Sichuan to deliver news to the outside world...

Yan Guang used wireless telegraphy imported from Germany, so it didn't matter if Qin Zaigeng cut all the telephone poles at the beginning, but now almost all of the telegraphs used in China are wired telegraphs, so cutting off all the telephone poles is equivalent to actively cutting off foreign contact and intelligence traffic...

Zhu Qinglan is better to arrive, after all, his station is closer to Chengdu, and he can arrive in a day if he rides a horse.

However, there was Zhu Qinglan's 17th Town New Army separated from Chengdu, so it took two days for the members of the Brotherhood to break through the blockade of the New Army and rush to the headquarters of the Baolu Army in Rong County.

It's just that when these elders arrived, they learned that the leaders of the Baolu Army, Qin Zaigeng and Long Mingjian, were dead...

Qin Zaigeng died because he received news when he was in Rong County that Deng Daxing, the head of the Comrade Army stationed in Jingyan, had defected and was in cahoots with the local bureaucrats who had been ousted.

After Qin Zaigeng got the news, he took people to Jingyan, and after seeing Deng Daxing, he counted his crimes, and then removed him from his position. As a result, when he left, the embarrassed and angry Deng Daxing and his accomplices ambushed him on the way he had to go, and after being shot several times, Qin Zaigeng fell asleep.

At this time, Long Mingjian was leading the army to fight outside, but the Baolu army under his command was poorly trained and poorly equipped, and the result was repeated defeats, coupled with the long-term transfer to war, which led to overwork and illness, at this time, when he heard the news of Qin Zaigeng's death, he simply vomited blood and was bedridden.

While lying in bed, rumors of the loss of Rong County came (at that time, the new army was attacking towards Rong County), and under the blow of these bad news, Long Mingjian finally died.

After losing the two leaders of Qin Zaigeng and Long Mingjian, although there are still a few leaders left in the Baolu Army, they have equal positions and disagreements with each other, and they usually quarrel over each other's strategic issues, and they can't get a unified opinion after learning about the affairs of Chengdu.

After all, the components of the Baolu Comrade Army are not only the Alliance, but also the Elders' Association, which is not very easy to manage.

Moreover, the members of the Brotherhood still occupy the majority in the Baolu Army, and it is better to say that Qin Zaigeng is here, after all, he is not only a member of the Alliance and the leader of the Brotherhood, but now that he is dead, it is even more difficult for the Brotherhood, which is already very loose and unruly, to master...

And although there are Zhang Peijue and Yang Shukan and others in Yucheng, they are members of the Alliance but they are not part of the Baolu Army, and the remaining Wang Tianjie and others will not agree to their mistakes in interfering with the Baolu Army, not to mention that there are many members of the Elders' Association who don't buy it...

At this point, after losing the two leaders of Qin Zaigeng and Long Mingjian, the Baolu Comrade Army fell into a situation where the dragons were leaderless.

――――――――――

The encounter between Qin Zaigeng and Long Mingjian is a historical fact, especially Qin Zaigeng, maybe he thought that as the leader of the rebel army, no one dared to touch him
