Chapter 171: Straw Bag
Song Jiaoren was ordered to investigate the Tao case, but the investigation did not go well, although some people testified against Chen Qimei, but there was no full evidence, he could not be taken down at all, and the time dragged on for more and more time, all kinds of clues became fewer and fewer, and most of the clues were cut off, and it basically fell into a stalemate.
Moreover, Song Jiaoren was also under tremendous pressure from within the League, and the revolutionaries, including Huang Xing, called Song Jiaoren and asked him to stop and avoid the loss of revolutionary forces, but Song Jiaoren became more and more sure in his heart that these so-called revolutionaries still could not get rid of the imprint of the old era, and they did not understand the problem of Ming Cook politics at all.
Thinking of this, Song Jiaoren has a great sense of who I belong to, after Lao Yuan ordered the removal of Chen Qimei, Song Jiaoren thought about it several times and found Zhang Taiyan, it is not easy to take down Chen Qimei, he not only has the army in his hands, but also a large group of hooligans and ruffians, the power of the Qinghong Gang, so the power of the army must be used to succeed.
And Song Jiaoren also has his own ideas, he is not willing to enter the south of the Beiyang Army, if he can take Chen Qimei before Feng Guozhang, he will have a reason to prevent the Beiyang Army from entering the south, from the bottom of his heart, Song Jiaoren and Tao Chengzhang are both Yuan Shikai, and they do not regard him as their own people.
Zhang Taiyan was full of revenge at this time, and immediately agreed to Song Jiaoren's proposal to mobilize the Guangfu Army to advance into Shanghai, and after Tao Chengzhang's training, the Guangfu Army had 30,000 elite troops, and Song Jiaoren immediately commanded these troops and went straight to Shanghai.
Chen Qimei also seemed to be an ant on a hot pot at this time, he thought that if he killed Tao Chengzhang, the United Party would fall apart, and then put the blame on Lao Yuan, and even set off a second revolution and ousted Lao Yuan, but because Song Jiaoren took over the case, the spearhead of the investigation was directly pointed at him Chen Qimei, Song Jiaoren himself is a member of the Alliance, his credibility is much stronger than Lao Yuan, and Chen Qimei's situation is becoming more and more difficult.
In particular, Lao Yuan ordered Chen Qimei to be removed from the post of Shanghai governor, and Song Jiaoren transferred troops into Shanghai, and suddenly Chen Qimei came to the point of life and death.
The murderous atmosphere in Shanghai is pervasive, but outside the city of Neijiang is the waves are monstrous, the huge waves continue to erode the crumbling embankment, the soldiers and civilians of Sichuan and Shu have been holding the embankment for three days under the command of Qiao Yu, and the torrential rain has no sign of abating, Qiao Yu's brows are tightly condensed into a pimple, patrolling on the embankment.
The people of Neijiang are also accustomed to this young patrol envoy, whenever he passes, he shows a big smile, the supreme ruler of Sichuan can stand with them at this critical juncture, eat and live together, and face the invasion of monstrous floods together, although this time the water is more violent than before, but the people have never been so down-to-earth, how many years the official master is high, when did he care about their safety, and now there can finally be a leader who stands with them, When I think of this, there seems to be endless energy in my body.
At this time, Shi Yi hurriedly ran over: "Dashuai, the evacuation of the people has been almost done, all of them have arrived in a safe area, and there are plenty of food and medicines!" ”
"There weren't any fatalities, did they?"
"No, there was a soldier who broke his leg while helping the people evacuate!"
Qiao Yu nodded slightly: "Record this soldier as a first-class meritorious service and report the reward, the current manpower is still a little insufficient, when will Deng Xihou's department be able to arrive?" ”
"Report to the marshal, you will be able to arrive within two hours, don't worry!"
While he was talking, an embankment suddenly collapsed, and a gap more than three meters long appeared in an instant, and the two people who had been guarding here fell into the rushing floodwater.
"Quick! Hurry up and seal the gap! ”
Shi Yi was also very anxious, and rushed up with his guards carrying sandbags, and the other people also recovered from the shock, one by one frantically carrying stones and sandbags, and quickly rushed towards the surging flood, some people took out all the baskets at home, filled them with sand, and filled the gap like a desperate person.
Qiao Yu also took matters into his own hands, together with hundreds of soldiers and civilians, bags of stones were thrown into the torrent, his hands were worn out of the skin, his shoulders were red and swollen and tall, sweat mixed with rainwater flowed into his mouth, but the water was still huge, the embankment was crumbling, Shi Yi took more than a dozen soldiers to connect his body with ropes, and jumped into the torrent, a human wall blocked the flood, the human wall looked weak and couldn't help the wind, but the Syrian Mansion behind him was as solid as a rock.
At this time, Wang Chengji organized a group of Neijiang people, took out all the door panels, closely connected these door panels, and threw them behind the human wall, and then everyone took shovels and pickaxes, and kept throwing sand and gravel into them, and gradually the momentum of flood leakage was blocked.
The embankment finally turned to safety, but Qiao Yu's eyes fell on the gap in the embankment, and his face was pale.
"Minister Tang, can you explain to me what's going on, who did this kind of bastard project, the project of cutting off children and grandchildren?"
Tang Yisheng's face also began to distort, and when there was a gap, Tang Yisheng also rushed over, he witnessed a scene that made him stunned, when the flood broke through the embankment, there were several huge straw bales in the embankment, these bastards actually used this kind of thing to prevaricate, joking with people's lives, it was really killable.
The embankment of the Neijiang River was specially built with silver, and the silver of the white flowers was replaced by a ball of straw bales, Tang Yisheng only felt that the anger and shame were indescribable, and soon Wang Chengji was also called over.
"Dashuai, this embankment was built by Huang Yong!"
"Bring someone here!"
After a while, I saw several soldiers with a fat-headed and big-eared officer; Before coming to the embankment, it turned out that this Huang Yong asked for sick leave when the flood came, Qiao Yu came to other officials and rushed to the embankment, but he didn't show his head at all, still soaking in the sick number, just when the soldiers went to capture him, he was cleaning up the soft at home, ready to escape at any time, and at this moment was caught by several fierce soldiers and brought to the embankment.
Huang Yong knew that things were not good as soon as he saw the scene in front of him, seeing Qiao Yu looking at him with a pale face, his legs and stomach couldn't help but weaken, and his huge body collapsed in front of Qiao Yu, Qiao Yu didn't look at him, but said to the soldiers and civilians present: "Folks, it stands to reason that everything should pay attention to the law, but the person in front of him regards everyone's life and property as child's play, then his life is also a child's play!" ”
After saying this, Qiao Yu directly took out a pistol, and the cold muzzle was on the top of Huang Yong's head, and with a gunshot, Huang Yong's red brain came out in response and scattered in the rain, and the two soldiers lifted Huang Yong's body and threw it directly into the rolling flood!
The bloody reality made the officials at all levels in Neijiang tremble and dare not have any slackness, and the morale of the people became more and more invigorated, and they worked together to fight the flood, and at this time Deng Xihou arrived with 800 fresh troops, put into the flood fight, and held on for two whole days, the rainstorm finally stopped, the sky was clear, and the most dangerous moment seemed to have passed.
"This Huang Yong is really a big straw bale, throw him into the water, and the embankment will be guarded!"
