Chapter 103 Expansion (9) is helpless

After the battle of the Jinghan Line, the commanders of various departments of the National Defense Army made some adjustments, and Li Yifeng fought a battle that seemed to be a loss, but when he was rewarded for his merits, he took a big advantage and was directly promoted to the commander of the Seventh Infantry Division, and Lin Huaichuan was reappointed as the commander of the Fifth Division.

At the all-army summing up meeting, Fang Jianxiong did not hesitate to praise the tremendous sacrifices made by Li Yifeng's brigade in the battle of the Jinghan Line, and without the brigade's arduous struggle on the south bank of the Ru River, there would have been no great victory on the southern front. It can be said that the sacrifices made by Li Yifeng's brigade were the key factor in victory.

What does it mean? Don't be afraid of suffering losses in wars, and don't worry about reaping benefits. Commander Fang's eyes lit up, and his subordinates who were willing to work hard were good subordinates. All departments of the National Defense Forces must dare to fight vicious battles at critical moments. After Li Yifeng was promoted, the chief officers at the level of brigade commanders of various departments were all warm.

When the new official took office, Li Yifeng selected more than a dozen people from his old subordinates, including Yang Zui. Fang Dashuai nodded his head on this matter, so no one dared to say strange things. After making meritorious service on the battlefield of the Ruhe River, Yang Zui was resting in Hankou and asked people to pick up the woman from Anqing. Within a few days of stability, the unit was promoted to battalion commander, and it was about to go south.

Before assembling, Yang Zui deliberately took two hours off and rushed back to the house where the woman had settled. In the Battle of the Ru River, Yang was drunk and won a bonus of 200 oceans, all of which were smashed into this small family, and the salary he saved was also given to the woman.

At the time of parting, Yang was drunk and wanted to seize the time to warm up, and just hugged the woman's willow waist, ready to make love. The woman took out a letter and handed it to him, saying, "You have a letter from your hometown." ”

Yang Zui's hometown is in Cangzhou, Hebei, and his father is from a lifting background. The family has quite an industry. After wandering all these years, he never contacted his family until he entered the Anhui Army and felt that he had hope and wrote to his family to report the situation. The letter was delivered to the old troops, and it was directly forwarded to the woman.

"Let's take a look." Yang Zui took the letter and opened it, hugging the woman's soft and warm waist. The head rests together to read the letter. Seeing his father's familiar handwriting, he couldn't help but have hot eyes. The content of the letter is very ordinary, that is, an ordinary family letter. His father did not reproach him for not having contact with his family for so many years. It's just that the mother has been sick for two years because she misses her deeply, and she has seen the news of her son. I'm half healed, and I'm able to walk around now.

Looking at the letter, Yang Zui's tears fell down, and the woman next to her took out a handkerchief to wipe it constantly, her eyes were extremely tender. Unexpectedly, in the end, the letter mentioned that the family told Yang Zui about a family matter, and his father's youngest daughter who was raised in the same year during the imperial examination was fifteen years old this year, and his mother hoped that he would go home as soon as possible and marry later.

After reading the letter, both of them were a little speechless. Yang Zui didn't know what to say, and it was even more difficult to explain a woman's thoughts. The current relationship between the two is, in a fashionable phrase, cohabitation. To put it mildly, it's called concubine.

"Don't worry. I'll give you an explanation. Yang Zui finally came up with a sentence, the woman silently cleaned up the bed, came over and pulled the man's hand, and said in a low voice: "I believe you, but you have to plant a baby for me first, otherwise your heart will not be steady." ”

…………………………

The Nanjing Provisional Government was once again in a hurry. The corners of Army Chief Huang Xing's mouth were boiled up. Because of the three assassinations of Fang, Tao, and Yuan, the Alliance Association was notorious for a while. It also exposed the shortcomings of the lack of a unified order within the alliance and the disadvantage of the league branches in various places.

The biggest dilemma facing the Provisional Government is still a financial problem. The only person who can borrow money is Japan, and Japanese people don't have that much money to borrow. Due to the attitude of the Western powers, the Japanese government could only borrow money from the provisional government through foreign companies such as Guò Mitsui, Okura, and Kotobuki.

At this stage, there is a loan that has been completed, and there is a loan that is being discussed. The first was 300,000 yen borrowed by Mitsui & Co., which amounted to 302,013.42 silver dollars. The small amount of the loan, at an annual interest rate of 8.5 per cent, was used to cover the military and political expenses of the Provisional Government. The second loan is said to have been made in secret, that is, the Hanyeping Coal and Iron Mine is jointly owned by China and Japan. After Sheng Xuanhuai initialed the agreement, this was very fatal, first of all, the whole country opposed it, among which the constitutionalists headed by Zhang Jian shouted the loudest. The steel industry can be said to be the lifeblood of the country, and in the hands of the Japanese, why not hand over the noose to the Japanese? The Provisional Government acquiesced in this matter in order to obtain a loan of 2 million yen. 7% p.a. and 90% discount. It can be said that it means that it is a bit of a rush to the doctor. Funnily enough, Sheng Xuanhuai used this incident to save his life and return to Shanghai, instead of staying in Japan for a long time. It was Fang Jianxiong who actually controlled Hanyang, that is to say, he didn't dare to let the world know about this matter, but the Japanese are not so easy to talk about, this matter has not been announced for the time being, and it will still be poked out in the future and not mentioned.

Now that the loan has not been negotiated, Fang Jianxiong took the assassination case first. If he knows about the loan, why don't you directly send troops to fight Nanjing? The reason why Anhui and Hubei provinces were not included in the provisional government is that they are still not included.

The military and political departments of the provisional government held urgent consultations for a day and a night, but no result was achieved at all. Facing head-on, there is no chance of winning at all. There is only one Jiangxi division in Jiujiang, counting on Nanchang to send reinforcements, and the surname Ma is not so kind. The rest is that the Nanjing Provisional Government and Fang Jianxiong have a full-scale war, not to mention, first of all, there is no money, secondly, there is no way to win, and finally, what is even more tragic is that most of the Northern Expeditionary Army sent by the provinces is still on the way. When these people arrived in Nanjing, there was no solution to the problem of eating, drinking, and Lazar. What to do? The helpless pain made Sun, who was sitting in the first place, always frown.

The Alliance, which is good at talking and fooling others to sell their lives, realizes for the first time that their advantages have no room to play. In this incident, Fang Jianxiong is not empty and white-toothed, people have evidence, and all the evidence and material evidence have been announced at a press conference. Some media also confirmed that Sun Wu was indeed staying in Jiujiang, and only recently went to Shanghai from Jiujiang and transferred to Japan. Tao Chengzhang's matter is still a mess, and the result is not over.

The Liberation Society doesn't have much military power, so it's not difficult to bully them. Who is Fang Jianxiong? With heavy troops in hand, people really send troops to fight you.

There is no clue in the military, and public opinion has been bitten by the constitutionalists, the Liberation Association, and Beiyang from all walks of life. Especially some small newspapers, all kinds of dirty water, whether there is or not, do not want to put basins on the head of the provisional government. In the past, the alliance would give others a hat and a stick, but I didn't expect it to be today.

"Fang Jianxiong sent troops to Jiangxi, this is sabotaging the revolution, this is opening up for Yuan Shikai! It's a naked warlord act! Ma Junwu, who was fortunate enough to attend the meeting, had always had a smooth mouth and a good writing, so he put a label on Fang Jianxiong's head when he opened his mouth.

The problem is that the louder he said, the weaker the reaction of the crowd became, and no one looked at him later, Ma Junwu himself was embarrassed to continue to speak, and his mouth was stupid.

"It's better to send someone to Wuchang again, if this battle can not be fought, it is better not to fight. Jiangxi's independent response to Fang Jianxiong has no chance of winning. In Nanjing, Wuhu is too close, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of myself. "The one who spoke cautiously was Wang Jingwei, who has been very active recently as a counselor in the peace talks.

This is the truth, but the truth is very hurtful.

"Then Zhaoming will take a trip!" Huang Xing interjected very suddenly, Wang Jingwei was stunned, and said in his heart I don't plan to take this job, isn't this an idea for you?

"Military preparations can't be slackened, Lan Sheng hurry up and talk about the loan as much as possible. On the one hand, he was preparing for the Northern Expedition, and on the other hand, he was preparing to deal with Fang Jianxiong. "In the past, Sun was called Fang Fuguo, but today he is called Daimyo. I really can't get intimate, this person is too hateful, and the roots of his teeth are itchy.

In fact, Sun should hate the governors of the provinces of the provisional government, they are holding guns and money bags, and no one is willing to give some blood. The Provisional Government can only find a way to borrow, which is already uncovered.

Chen Jintao, the chief financial officer, stood up and spoke: "The one who the Japanese seek, Hanye Pinger." Only this party is willing to borrow, if Fang Fuguo knows about this matter, I am afraid that there will be waves again. "Chen Jintao is also a famous traitor in parallel history. He once held a key financial position in Wang's puppet government. Look at the Nanjing Provisional Government, it's actually quite interesting.

"We still have to make a difference in military affairs and let Fang Jianxiong retreat in the face of difficulties." Sun said a very unreliable sentence, Yali fell on the head of Huang Xing, chief of the army and chief of staff, this monarch has full military powers, and this time is the time to use force.

However, in the face of Sun's ardent expectations, Huang Keqiang, who was once indomitable, has lost his courage at the moment.

"I'm afraid Nanjing won't be able to help Jiangxi much." Huang Xing finally told the truth, and after finishing speaking, he saw Sun's face was ugly, gritted his teeth and said: "It's better to let Li Xiaru withdraw from Jiujiang and retreat to Nanchang." ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire conference room fell silent! All kinds of unwilling feelings are spreading, but there is no feasible solution. "Could it be that fifteen provinces can't deal with a single Fang Jianxiong? And if that's the case? What else to talk about the Northern Expedition? Angry and stood up loud speakers, Secretary General Hu Hanmin also. This gentleman stupidly gave up the position of governor and cheapened Chen Jiongming.

This is another very slap in the face truth, Hu Hanmin, hehe, how to say it? He is also a talented person. It can even be said that Lao Jiang was able to sit back in the country later, mainly because the opponent was too bad. What Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, Deng Yanda and the like.

"As a guest, please lead the first division to detour to Jiujiang!" Jiang Zuobin, vice commander of the army, stood up and took the initiative to ask for battle.

The problem is that when he leads his troops to Jiangxi by the detour, it will take ten days and half a month, and the daylilies will be cold by then. Besides, Xu Shaojiao, the commander of the First Army of the Provisional Government, and Lin Huaichuan, the former commander of the Second Division, are now at Fang Jianxiong's place. It's one thing whether you take a division to plug your teeth or not, and it is very likely that you will defect collectively before the fight starts.
