Under the huge strength advantage, the Feng army's attack on Hubei can be said to be a smooth journey, Chen Guangyuan's Third Army was the first to break through, when Shiyanglin's 20th Division just arrived at Shanxi Niangzi Pass, he had already taken Wusheng Pass, and more than 4,000 Hubei troops originally stationed at Wusheng Pass fled south to Hanyang.

Subsequently, with the cooperation of many gunboats of the navy, the 9th and 14th Divisions of the main forces of the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army of Zhang Guotai launched an attack on Wuchang.

Subsequently, Lu Yongxiang's First Army, which marched west from northern Anhui, also successfully captured the Hanyang area.

Although the troops used by the Feng army in the entire Hubei campaign exceeded that of any previous battle, the actual course of the battle was so bland that people were speechless.

In the face of the attack of more than 200,000 troops of the Feng army, Wang Shizhen's 50,000 troops left in Hubei did not support it for even half a month, and were soon defeated, and then Wang Shizhen fled west with more than 20,000 remnants of the army, all the way into Sichuan.

In the past half a month, in fact, the two sides have not been fighting for a long time, and most of it is the marching time of the Feng army itself.

With the capture of Hubei, the 11th and 13th Divisions of the Third Army immediately turned around and headed north, and then followed the pace of the 11th Mixed Brigade and launched an attack towards the south of Shanxi.

Lu Yongxiang's First Army set off in the northwest direction and headed straight for Xi'an, Shaanxi.

Meng Enyuan's Fourth Army headed straight for Sichuan.

Zhang Guotai's Fifth Army was to return to Huguang Province, the 21st Division was stationed in Hanyang and Wuchang, and the 22nd Division was to defend Changsha to avoid turmoil in Hubei and Hunan Provinces due to the lack of troops.

When Meng Enyuan's Fourth Army marched towards Sichuan, in fact, the Feng army had already begun its offensive against Sichuan, and Xu Bangjie's Second Army, after peacefully accepting Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, on the one hand, reorganized the remnants of the local forces, established patrol infantry regiments and other local security forces, and on the other hand, also sent the 10th Division and the 6th Mixed Brigade to Sichuan.

In December, Feng's army successively took Changzhi, Taiyuan, and other important cities in Shanxi, and Wu Fengling led the remnants of the army to retreat to Shaanxi.

In February of the following year, the First Army of the Feng Army defeated the last main force of the Southern Federation in Xi'an, that is, the 19th Town under the command of Zhao Erxun, and more than 6,000 of the 30,000 people in this department were annihilated, more than 10,000 escaped, and the remaining 10,000 people were all taken prisoner.

Since the combat effectiveness of the department has always been quite good, Zhao Dongyun instructed the division to be incorporated and awarded the number of the 25th Division of the Central Army.

In April, the Fourth Army of the Feng Army conquered Chongqing, Sichuan, and a month later the Fourth Army conquered Chengdu, along with the above-mentioned large cities being conquered by the Feng Army.

It can also be officially announced that the Soviet system has controlled the three provinces of Sichuan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi.

Immediately afterwards, Gansu and Xinjiang announced their allegiance to the Beiyang Republican Government, and then Tibet also announced the legitimacy of the Beiyang Republican Government.

The troops of the Feng army began to be stationed in Xinjiang and Tibet in batches.

Although in the process of the westward advance of the Feng army, it was inevitable that there would be a series of battles with the local warlord forces, but these battles were not large-scale, and it was said that it was a battle between the regular army, but in fact it was more like a battle between the army and bandits, and there was no obstacle to the complete unification of China by the Soviet system.

In June 1910, Zhao Dongyun issued a 'Letter to the Whole Nation' from the Jingshi Jurentang, saying that after two years of civil war, China had once again restored its unity.

Subsequently, Zhao Dongyun held a large-scale award ceremony in Nanyuan, at which a number of meritorious generals of the military were awarded, and the rank of field marshal was conferred for the first time.

In the two-year civil war of the Chinese New Year, the four core commanders of the Soviet Feng Army, Meng Enyuan, Xu Bangjie, Lu Yongxiang, and Chen Guangyuan, were awarded the rank of field marshal.

Among them, Meng Enyuan is already a medalist, and the big medal is unique to Zhao Dongyun himself, so he will not increase the medal, while the other three Xu Bangjie, Lu Yongxiang, and Chen Guangyuan are awarded one medal.

However, Meng Enyuan has obtained the Golden Dragon Two-Star Medal that no one else can obtain, although this is not the highest Golden Dragon Three-Star Medal in the Soviet medal system, but it is also the highest level of military merit awarded by the Fengjun at present.

The other three were awarded the Golden Dragon One-Star Medal.

In addition, Gu Lanyu, who was well-known in the army and was promoted to the commander of the Sixth Army at the end of the war, finally stepped on the rank of general in the army and was awarded the Golden Dragon One-Star Medal.

In addition, Ren Cungao, the former commander of the 10th Division, Lin Yongquan, commander of the 9th Division, and Fang Biyong, chief of the General Staff Department, have been promoted to lieutenant generals and generals in the army, and they will replace Meng Enyuan, Chen Guangyuan, Xu Bangjie, and other bigwigs as new army commanders.

And there are even more who have been promoted to lieutenant generals, army major generals, and lieutenant generals and army major generals.

This time the award ceremony was the largest number of military ranks awarded by Zhao Dongyun at one time, and dozens of senior generals were promoted to military ranks, and at the same time, more than 60 officers who were originally colonels crossed the threshold of generals and were promoted to major generals, and there was a very eye-catching person among them, that is, Zhao Dongyun's cousin Zhao Dongzhi.

At the same time, a large number of medals were awarded, of which the total number of people who received five and four medals exceeded 200, including military generals and government officials

In addition, there are fewer first, second, and third honors, but the total number of honors is more than fifty.

This award ceremony is enough to create a powerful class of the republic for decades to come.

After the award ceremony, Zhao Dongyun invited ministers from various countries and domestic elites to participate in the Nanyuan state banquet, and during this period of time, the upper echelons of the entire republic were almost full of laughter.

Immediately afterward, Zhao Dongyun announced the unified reorganization of all field troops, patrol police units, and other local units in the country, announcing that 30 standing divisions would be formed, with three divisions as one army, and 10 corps, and at the same time, each province would be assigned three to five patrol regiments, and a garrison headquarters would be set up in each province to have jurisdiction over these patrol regiments in the province.

The command of the above-mentioned 10 field armies and patrol regiments in various provinces is all vested in the high command.

The establishment of 30 standing divisions and 10 armies is to weaken the situation of the huge scale of several armies in the past, and at the same time, it is also to arrange more generals; after all, after large-scale promotions, many people's military ranks have been raised, and those army generals, army lieutenant generals, and army lieutenant generals plus generals all need army commanders or equivalent positions to arrange, but it is not possible to arrange a division commander position for an army lieutenant general.

When the military makes changes in its establishment, it is also making changes to its weapons and equipment, first of all, in artillery, the military continues to purchase advanced tube-annealed guns, in order to completely eliminate a large number of old frame annealed guns that are still equipped in the next two years. In terms of rifles, the military has put forward a bidding plan for a new generation of rifles, requiring the major domestic arsenals to provide a new type of rifle that can fire 79-pointed bullets and be compatible with 79-round bullets, and requires that the performance of the new rifle gun needs to surpass the existing 88-type rifle gun, and before the new rifle gun is finalized and mass-produced, it will continue to purchase the 88-type rifle gun, so as to achieve a unified armament of the whole army with the 88-type rifle gun and completely eliminate the Japanese-style, Russian-style and other miscellaneous rifles.

In terms of machine guns, the purchase and equipment of Type 08 heavy machine guns and Type 07 light machine guns were increased, but the old Type 01 heavy machine guns and the original Madsen light machine guns continued to be used.

Of course, there are also large-caliber long-range artillery, and the original two 100-mm heavy artillery battalions in the Feng army played a huge role in the domestic war, and the Feng army already planned to continue to purchase one battalion to make up for three battalions. At the same time, Chiang also purchased a larger caliber, that is, a six-foot heavy howitzer, and has already inspected the products of many arsenals in Germany, France, and even Japan and Britain.

When the military continues to carry out large-scale establishment and equipment changes, it is also attacking everywhere in the country, what are they fighting? Fight the remnants of the Southern Federation, local armed forces, bandits, etc.

All armed forces that do not belong to the central government are in the ranks of the attack.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry also launched a land reform program in many provinces in the country in due course, and the reform plan was mainly based on restricting land rent, and at the same time increasing the taxation of excess land on large landlords, forcing large landlords to take the initiative to sell their land and cash out into industry and commerce.

A series of reform measures will not be detailed one by one, but in general, since 1910, the Soviet government led by Zhao Dongyun has begun a comprehensive stage of reform and development.

Of course, in this process, it is inevitable that there will be a series of headaches, such as restricting land rent, so that there is a certain amount of turmoil in many provinces, and even many officials and even officers have opposing voices, but Zhao Dongyun has always been unsoft for such people, and the domestic military and police have arrested many people every day, and some wealthy families with tens of thousands of acres of land in Bazhou have even been uprooted.

At the same time, in order to support industry and commerce, Zhao Dongyun began to plan negotiations with various countries, trying to get back the tariff autonomy, and this thing is not so easy, you must know that even Japan has not been able to take back the tariff autonomy, and now China wants to achieve this goal, at least several years of negotiations, pay a certain price.

In addition, with the rapid development of China's domestic industry and commerce, especially the textile industry, it has squeezed out a large amount of living space for Oriental and Western cloths, and in order to develop industry and commerce, it has set off a trend of supporting domestic products and making foreign goods, so that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is facing huge political pressure from foreign powers every day.

Today's China is an era full of hope, an era full of humiliation, and an era full of crises.

It was against the backdrop of such an era that a middle-aged man dressed in a Western suit and carrying an inch of hair stepped off the ship and then set foot on the land of Guangzhou.

Not long after, he appeared in a room lit with a dim kerosene lamp, there were more than ten people sitting in the room, under the guidance of several young people, the middle-aged man who had just set foot on the land of Guangzhou took off his hat, looked around, and then said with a firm expression: "This time I will return to China, I will not be named, only the revolutionary spirit!" ”
