Jiang Feng launched a posture in Hubei to prepare for a big fight, the two armies have gathered millions of people, once the war starts, it will be a protracted bloody battle, compared with Wu Xiaoliang's previous life in the Central Plains War, it is nothing more than a Hubei War, but the people who suffered have been changed from Henan to Hubei.

Wu Xiaoliang wanted to reach a consensus within the provincial capital on the largest part of the meeting, Feng Yuxiangtun was heavily armed in Hubei, the rear army had been wiped out by him, and the defense was extremely empty, and in the face of this great opportunity, he was extremely cautious about whether or not to send troops to Henan.

Among them, the directors of all departments almost unanimously opposed the dispatch of troops, and He Siyuan, director of education, spoke out in a clear and unequivocal manner:

"As the governor of a province in Shandong, the chairman will be responsible for the tens of millions of people in Shandong, and if the war is unfavorable, the war will spread to the province, and the people of Shandong will be devastated by the soldiers again. After some generous words, he added:

"Therefore, in the opinion of Siyuan, as long as the warlords do not come to provoke us, Shandong should be bored and no longer talk lightly about military affairs."

Among the people, the directors of the hall nodded in agreement with He Siyuan's statement, and when Wu Xiaoliang's gaze swept over and asked for specific opinions, he did not dare to look at him.

"Director He said that Li did not agree, Jiang Feng's army gathered in Hubei, Feng Yuxiang's rear was empty, Henan is located in the Central Plains, and it has been a place where soldiers must fight since ancient times, so how can such a great opportunity be seen and given up."

Who knew that He Siyuan immediately replied: "General Li only saw one of them but did not see the second, although Henan is located in the Central Plains, it is a place where soldiers must fight, but it is also a place of four wars, if you don't have absolute strength, I'm afraid that if you eat it, you will become the target of the three major warlords of Yan, Feng, and Jiang, and when the time comes, not only Henan will be difficult to protect, but even Shandong will be implicated." ”

Li Zejun snorted heavily: "When it comes to reasoning, I can't say anything about you, and Chairman Wu is still in charge, and the chairman says that I will beat me, and if I don't fight, I don't have a second word." After that, he snorted again and said no more.

Wu Xiaoliang saw that he was cold, and the others didn't say why, so naturally he couldn't make a decision so hastily, he saw that Li Youting who was sitting in the crowd seemed to be bowing his head and pondering, so he pointed at him and said: "Brigade Commander Li, don't be silent, tell me your opinion." ”

Li Youting has always adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile, if it weren't for Wu Xiaoliang naming and letting him say that he would not take the initiative to express his opinion, seeing that he couldn't hide, he coughed twice and said:

"What Director He said is reasonable, and what Division Chief Li said is not bad...... actually started a round, and the scene was booed, but then he said: "Our army should not only stare at Feng Yuxiang, you must know that the praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches behind, and there is a big yellow finch squatting at the foot of Taihang Mountain, once we send troops to Henan, Shanxi will inevitably copy the back road of our army, and Henan may not be able to get it at that time, but Shandong will suffer first, so I think that Yan Xishan will not move, our army will not move, and if Yan Xishan moves, our army will send troops according to the situation." ”

The brigade commanders who advocated sending troops immediately sweated profusely, and they even ignored that there was also a Yan Xishan in the north, if it was really as Li Youting said, Shandong was in danger, but some people still questioned it.

"If Yan Xishan keeps standing still, we won't miss a great opportunity."

Li Youting just wanted to defend himself, but Wu Xiaoliang laughed: "Yan Laoxi is ambitious and will definitely send troops, but who he fights first depends on our actions in Shandong." ”

Wu Xiaoliang was also like everyone else who only stared at Feng Yuxiang and ignored Yan Xishan in the north, once he ignored the troops into Henan, it was very likely to be attacked by Yan Xishan on both sides, and once he was involved in the war, the situation would be critical, not to mention that there was a Zhang Xueliang outside the pass, there were too many variables to participate in the war, it was better to make a show, after the idea was decided, Wu Xiaoliang made a final decision, but at the same time ordered the army to enter the first-level combat readiness, strictly guard the border, and once there was a change, it must be put into battle at any time.

The most important of these was the Jinpu Road in Hebei occupied by Wu Xiaoliang, because this section of the road originally belonged to the Jin army, but after being lost by the Saito brigade all the way, the Shandong army followed and recovered, and since then it has been in the hands of the Shandong army.

So in the second half of the meeting, Wu Xiaoliang proposed the establishment of the road protection army headquarters, Jinpu Road in the Beiyang era originally had a road protection army, but after the Northern Expedition, the provincial forces were reshuffled, this road protection army for various reasons did not recover, and now want to re-establish it is necessary for the central government to nod, but according to Wu Xiaoliang's judgment, at this time proposed to organize the Jinpu Road protection army by Shandong, Jiang Zhongzheng will only agree and will not refuse, because, at this time, it is the time to employ people in the war, and it is too late for Shandong to come, how can it be pushed outward.

As for the commander of the road protection army, he already had a candidate in mind, that is, Zhao Donghai, the former captain of the Fengjun military police who followed him from Beijing to Shandong.

After the provincial government moved back to Jinan, he organized a short-term training course for officers, which was now ready to be formally formed in March, and these officers were supplemented with the recruits from the boot training camp into the 17th Division, and the third brigade of Zhao Donghai's headquarters was separately divided, and the team was expanded into a division and reorganized into the Jinpu Road Guard.

The provincial capital of Jinan army is frequently mobilized, although the provincial government has issued a notice to calm the people, the war will not spread to Shandong, people from all walks of life are still panicked, and some people have begun to prepare to go south to take refuge, just when everyone is worried that the war will burn to Shandong, a news from Lunan once again shook all walks of life in Jinan.

The magistrate of Rizhao County cracked the case of forcible seizure of land, and the scale of the land involved was more than half of the cultivated land in Rizhao, and the number of people who continued to announce it was jaw-dropping, and ordinary people could not imagine that a rich man in the countryside could have so much arable land, and what was even more eye-catching was that the Ding family involved the Ding family in Rizhao, and it was said that the Ding family was in the court, and it was still uncertain whether the chairman of Shandong Province could move it.

For a time, the people of Jinan, the dignified provincial capital, forgot about the crisis of the war in the neighboring province, and watched with amazement how the provincial chairman moved down the Ding family, which was known as the first inferior family in Shandong.

At this moment, news came from Henan that Yan Xishan's Jin army crossed the Yellow River and stabbed Feng Yuxiang in the ass.
