North of Fengtai City, the front line of the grove. The sky had slowly brightened, and the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion of the Model Regiment had been replaced last night and had spent the night on a position in the field. After a whistle, the junior officers shouted and pulled them up one by one, took a few freshly made white-flour steamed buns and entered the firing position, waiting for the possible dawn attack of the pigtailed soldiers.

The front of the position was littered with blue-gray corpses, and there were always three or four hundred! This is the result of yesterday's half-day fierce battle, the selection of the pigtail soldiers launched a total of four attacks, each time there was a scale of three or four hundred people, all of them were artillery to open the way, and the infantry held the "white" character to rush up in a swarm, although there was no discipline, but also did not lose the courage of the hand, and also dared to fight a white-knuckle fight. There is really a trace of "the strongest soldier in the southeast", but in Chang Ruiqing's opinion, he is a good opponent of "actual combat training", so after the first and third battalions of the model battalion, he replaced Wang Junhao's second battalion, so that they can also undergo the tempering of actual combat.

Chang Ruiqing was still supervising the battle on the front line, and last night, like an ordinary soldier in the model battalion, he spent the night in the field in the ice and snow. Early in the morning, he and Wang Junhao patrolled the position together, and said a lot of foolish nonsense, before returning to his headquarters, he saw his regimental staff officer, Xu Zuyi, who graduated from the third phase of Baoding, walking towards him: "Regiment commander, Tianjin Xu Zhenggong's telegram, Duan Zhi is preparing to form a rebel army in Tianjin, Li Changtai of the Eighth Division of the Army has agreed to participate in the rebellion, in addition to Cao Zhongshan's third division will also participate in the rebellion, Zhenggong wants us to stick to Fengtai and wait for help, don't give Zhang Shun a chance to take advantage of." In addition, Gong Zheng also asked ・・・・・・ if Emperor Puyi of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was in our hands. ”

"Oh?" A trace of surprise flashed on Chang Ruiqing's face, and he looked up at Xu Zuyi: "What did you say?" Xu Zheng thinks Pu Yi is here with us? ”

Xu Zuyi took out a January 20 edition of "Ta Kung Pao", handed it to Chang Ruiqing with both hands, and said with a smile: "Commander, the kidnapping of the little emperor Puyi in the past two days has caused a lot of uproar, and all the heroes have telegraphed to express their positions, some oppose it, some are in favor, and even the great powers of Britain, the United States, France, Russia, Japan and other countries have expressed concern・・・・・・, and then there are all kinds of rumors and speculations flying all over the sky, some people say that the Red Brigade is supported by Sun Yat-sen, some people say that it was done by Duan Zhilao's people, and some people say that Zhang Xun and the Manchu Qing court are eating dogs, Zhang Xun flatly denied that the emperor was kidnapped, and Duan Zhilao and Xu Zhenggong pointed out that the Red Brigade was a chaotic party supported by the Germans, with the purpose of messing up China and preventing us from participating in the European war! And Xu Zhenggong asked us if we had moved Pu Yi, because he wanted to make sure. ”

A strange smile slipped across Chang Ruiqing's face, what he wanted was to make the Red Brigade the focus of this restoration incident, and it was best to let the people of the whole country and the powers of the world know that China had such an organization to carry out the Red Revolution. As long as there is fame, it will be possible to further expand the Red Brigade・・・・・・ and with such a revolutionary organization, it will not be just beaten and not fight back against imperialism in the future!

He walked around the headquarters twice with some excitement before patting Xu Zuyi on the shoulder: "Go and call Xu Zhenggong back, just say that Pu Yi's kidnapping incident has nothing to do with our model regiment, and we just saw the news from the newspaper." At this time, two short and one long whistles came from the front, which was an early warning signal from the front, and a new round of attack by the pigtailed soldiers was about to begin. Chang Ruiqing took the telescope from his orderly Yu Liu's hand and walked outside the command department, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he suddenly turned back to Xu Zuyi and said: "Yan Mou, you go and draft a telegram, the content of which is that our model regiment expresses its support for the righteous deeds of the Red Brigade." ”

"What?" Xu Zuyi was slightly stunned, and hurriedly reminded: "Regiment leader, Duan Zhi Lao and Xu Zheng Gongke have already been condemned by telegram. ”

Chang Ruiqing waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile: "You just need to explain it on the call back to Xu Zhenggong, we published such a telegram to let Zhang Xun cast a mouse trap, and we didn't really support the Red Brigade." ”

"What does the head of the regiment mean to make Zhang Xun mistakenly think that the little emperor is in Fengtai?" Xu Zuyi lifted off his gold-rimmed glasses, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Will that recruit the main force of the Braided Army to outside Fengtai City?" ”

Chang Ruiqing smiled coldly: "I just want them to come, the more they come, the better!" It's best that Zhang Xun can personally lead the troops to Fengtai! ”

・・・・・・

Chang Ruiqing's telegram did not stop, and he arrived at the "Qing Army Department" at No. 2 Tieshi Hutong in Beijing as soon as possible. Zhang Xun did not go back to his mansion in the past two days, but has been living in the army, and he also read this telegram for the first time. Holding this telegram that had been announced to the world, there were suddenly a few more gray hairs on Zhang Xun's head・・・・・・What does Chang Ruiqing mean?" At present, the Beiyang family is shouting at the caliber of the "Pu Yi kidnapping incident", and even his master Duan Qirui wants to clean himself up, how dare this Chang Ruiqing send a power of support? Could it be that the Red Brigade is really playing tricks? Is the little emperor Pu Yi really in Fengtai? Or is this guy playing tricks on himself?

With a question mark on his head, Zhang Xun suddenly felt at a loss, and ordered to convene the Minister of Parliament, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, and Pu Yi's father, Prince Zaifeng, to a meeting at the War Department to discuss countermeasures. But these "pillars" of the Qing Dynasty don't know what to do in the face of the current situation? But you look at me, I look at you, and no one will speak.

After a long time, the little emperor's father, Zaifeng, sighed bitterly and broke the silence: "Xuan Shuai, everyone, if the emperor is really in Fengtai, it is a good thing・・・・・・ now the gold has raised almost 100,000 taels, Tianjin's Zhenbeile (Prince Qing's son), Zhang Biao (Zhang Yuan's master), Dalian's Prince Gong, and a few Japanese friends have said that they can sponsor some, 250,000 taels can't be made, 200,000 taels of gold are still available・・・・・・ now they just can't contact those strongmen of the Red Brigade, If they are in the same group as Chang Ruiqing, won't we be able to redeem the emperor? ”

Zaifeng's words fell, and the votes of "Manchu ministers" in the room began to discuss.

"・・・・・・I said Lord, that's 200,000 taels of gold! At present, the soldiers who are fighting bloodily for the Qing Dynasty are only six oceans a month・・・・・・ don't we want to chill the hearts of the soldiers? ”

"Nonsense! What else will be more important to our Qing Dynasty than the emperor? In order to save the emperor, let alone 200,000 taels of gold, we have to give 2 million taels! In the year of Gengzi, in order to keep the Queen Mother, Lafayette even lost 90,000 taels of silver! ”

"The compensation of 90,000 taels is to protect the Qing Dynasty! Now that he has given 200,000 taels of gold, can he save the Qing Dynasty by rescuing the emperor? How many of the Overseers have expressed their support for us? I think this gold is given in vain, it is better to use it to recruit soldiers, there are soldiers and guns to have the Qing Dynasty! ”

"If there are soldiers and guns, can the emperor call the Qing Dynasty? Doesn't that become the second in the Republic of China? Rather than this, it's better to restore the dragon flag to the Republic of China, and when the time comes, let Duan Qirui give an order to Chang Ruiqing, let him release the emperor, and the prince will be able to leave this expense. ”

"I think Chang Ruiqing, who is hanging ・・・・・・, did not admit that the emperor was kidnapped by him, and Duan Qirui also insisted that it was done by a red organization supported by the Germans, just like any Russian society or party, they are all a bunch of lawless rebels and thieves!"

Hearing the content of the discussion, Zhang Xun's face became more and more ugly, he slapped the table heavily, and glanced at everyone gloomily: "What are you talking about?" What are the thieves of the Red Brigade! What is the surname Chang? Dare to go against me Zhang Xun? He's not fucking qualified! Even if this restoration fails, it will be defeated in the hands of Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang! Saying that, he stood up suddenly: "Lao Tzu will personally lead the troops and vow to set foot on Fengtai and break the corpse of the surname Chang into ten thousand pieces!" ”
