"Jingle bell—"

The phone in the study rang at this time, and Xie Niancheng apologized to the Yang family to answer the phone.

"Brother Cheng, I know you're busy right now, but it's an important matter, can I come over and report now?"

Su Die, I really didn't misunderstand you, you are really a reliable person, "Okay, I'll come over right away." Xie Niancheng returned to the living room: "Uncle, auntie, I'll go to the side to deal with some things, and I'll be back in a while." ”

When he got to Su Die's side, "Brother Cheng, didn't bother you, did you?" ”

"No, no, what's so urgent?"

"That's right, the person I sent to keep an eye on Fang Caiyun found that she was very vigilant, and on several occasions she almost found that the person who was watching Fang Caiyun didn't look like an ordinary woman at all. The news found in Time magazine that she was the daughter of a Nanyang expatriate and that her parents had been separated in the turmoil was also a serious suspicion. ”

"This morning she went to interview some business forum, and our people got in and found that the person she had met looked a little like Japanese, probably in a connection, so they immediately called me and asked me what to do next."

There is one suspicion that you may not care, but if there are a few doubts, then it is not right, there is no doubt that this Fang Caiyun is Japanese and has a special mission.

"Withdraw all your people, don't keep an eye on them."

"Yes, I'll call right away...... However, Brother Cheng, why don't you keep an eye on it? ”

"Our experience and ability are still limited, if we continue to follow, sooner or later we will be discovered, now we know that she has a problem, no matter what she wants to do, we can be prepared, so it is more useful to keep her."

"Yes."

Fang Caiyun's matter was decided, Xie Niancheng remembered what happened that night, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Originally, I thought that I would not do anything to take advantage of people's danger, but now that I think about it, it is estimated that Fang Caiyun is making a plan for beauty.

Thinking of Fang Caiyun's self-taught action movie teacher's expression, Xie Niancheng shook his head again and again, "I don't eat the meat that is sent to my mouth, I'm sorry to go through this experience." ”

As soon as this matter was interrupted, Xie Niancheng returned to his yard again, and this time when he entered the living room, several members of the Yang family were eating happily, and there was no trace of a quarrel at all.

Seeing Xie Niancheng coming, Zhang Yuemei was very enthusiastic: "Hey, Head Xie, sit down quickly, the food is still hot." ”

Waiting for Xie Niancheng to sit down, Zhang Yuemei's chopsticks ran like the wind, and Xie Niancheng's bowl was full of vegetables in a few shuttles.

Yang Yuwei lowered her head and took small bites of food, and Xie Niancheng couldn't get a hint from her, so she could only laugh and eat.

Yang Yuwei's craftsmanship is really good, Xie Niancheng praised: "Well, it's delicious, delicious." ”

Zhang Yuemei said: "Xiaowei, haven't you cooked for Head Xie before?" ”

Yang Yuwei nodded.

"It's not that I said you, Head Xie is so busy every day, you have to cook and wash more clothes for Head Xie in the future, you know?"

"Oh."

In front of her parents, Yang Yuwei was very well-behaved.

This conversation made Xie Niancheng stunned, Zhang Yuemei, is this the rhythm of marrying a daughter?

Xie Niancheng looked at Yang Yuwei, Yang Yuwei, who was a little red-faced by her mother's explanation, was secretly watching Xie Niancheng's reaction, and the two left with a touch of their eyes, but they had exchanged enough information.

Seeing that Xie Niancheng finished eating a bowl of rice, Zhang Yuemei reached out and took the bowl over to help him serve the rice.

Xie Nian hurriedly got up: "Auntie, I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself." ”

After finishing the meal easily, Xie Niancheng wanted to clean up with Yang Yuwei, but was stopped by Zhang Yuemei: "What kind of kitchen does the man enter, just leave it to me and Xiaowei." ”

The mother and daughter began to clean up, Yang Xiaohai went to play in the yard, and Xie Niancheng and Yang Jian'an entered the study.

As soon as he entered the door, Yang Jian'an handed the check to Xie Niancheng.

"Head Xie, you can take this check...... The little girl is already very good to be taken care of by Captain Xie, so don't make such jokes again in the future. ”

Although Xie Niancheng was not at the scene, he could think that when he went to Su Die's side just now, it must have been Yang Yuwei who told the whole story. However, there was one thing he didn't expect, Zhang Yuemei told Yang Jian'an, and based on her decades of experience as a nurse, it could be seen that Yang Yuwei was still perfect.

After listening to what happened between her daughter and Xie Niancheng, and then knowing from Zhang Yuemei that the two were still courteous, Yang Jian'an's anger naturally disappeared.

"Captain Xie is young and promising, I don't know if I can get married?"

Yang Jian'an went straight to the point, people with a family background like Xie Niancheng were generally engaged early, he must ask this question clearly, he is not willing to let Yang Yuwei be a concubine.

In the marriage system of the Han Kingdom, legally speaking, men can take concubines, but the children of concubines have a low status and have no right to inherit family property in legal theory. To put it simply, a man's wife is the mistress of a family, and a concubine is just a high-class servant.

"No, no."

"Well, young people are together, we old people shouldn't have said anything, but the etiquette that should be observed must be kept!"

Yang Jian'an is a very traditional person, and he definitely can't tolerate his daughter giving everything to a man without a name or a penny.

"Yes, yes, Uncle is right."

Xie Niancheng faced Yang Jian'an, no matter what he heard, he could only nod.

After chatting about business, Xie Niancheng became a primary school student for a while, and accepted Teacher Yang's Confucian education, and it was easy to stay up until the mother and daughter over there cleaned up the battlefield, and this lesson was finished.

Yang Yuwei made a phone call, Su Die sent someone to drive over to pick up the Yang family to visit Guangzhou City, Xie Niancheng looked at the car in the distance and breathed a sigh...... Parents have passed this hurdle.

Yang Yuwei and her family were all settled in a hotel, which made Xie Niancheng, who was a little depressed after being teased continuously.

There are not many things that can make a man temporarily give up his desire for women, but power is definitely one of them.

The plan for the Northern Expedition has already begun to be formulated, and Xie Niancheng naturally has to find a way to achieve his goal.

Judging from the current situation, in this Northern Expedition, the First Army will divide the troops into two routes, Jiang Wei will lead his descendants and part of the Guangdong army to Jiangxi, Anhui, and Zhejiang, and the target is Nanjing and Shanghai; Wang Zhongzheng will lead the 3rd Division, the Gui Army, and part of the Cantonese Army to attack the two lakes, with the target being Wuhan.

In addition, the Yunnan army attacked Sichuan, the Fujian army attacked Zhejiang, and the main force of the Guangdong army, the Gui army, would remain in Liangguang.

Xie Niancheng went to Wang Zhongzheng today, just to let his troops join Wang Zhongzheng's combat sequence, go to Wuhan, and then turn west to fight back to Sichuan.

At present, Wang Zhongzheng, Li Zhongren and Bai Gaoxi in Guangxi, Tang Zhi in Hunan, and Zhang Dakui in Guangdong have all expressed their support for him, and the Third Division of the First Army, which is controlled by his own cronies, has also greatly strengthened its combat effectiveness after receiving a large number of young officers from the left wing of the Socialist Party.

Xie Niancheng is unwilling to lead the team to allegiance, which is not so regrettable for Wang Zhongzheng.

After Xie Niancheng expressed his willingness to act with Wang Zhongzheng, he gave Wang Zhongzheng a big problem.

The purpose of participating in the Northern Expedition was actually to carve up territory. In the previous plan, if Wang Zhongzheng could take Wuhan along the way, then Zhang Dakui's troops would take over the current territory of the First Army in Guangdong, Li and Bai would gain part of the territory of the two lakes, and Tang Zhi would gain most of Hubei.

The cake has already been divided before it is ready, and now Xie Niancheng wants to participate, where can he find the cake for him?

"Nian Cheng, tell me your plan first?"

The scheming Wang Zhong is planning to probe first.

Regarding Wang Zhongzheng's reaction, Xie Niancheng had already predicted: "Uncle Wang, after the death of Liu Dashuai, the old overseer of Sichuan at the beginning of the year, the Sichuan army was divided into several groups, attacking each other, and the people were miserable...... Most of the officers in my army were from Sichuan, and when they heard about the suffering of their fathers and elders in their hometowns, they were all so anxious that they asked for war every day to fight back to Sichuan. No, I came today to ask for your life, and my department is willing to follow Uncle Wang to Wuhan, and then return to Sichuan from Wuhan. ”

Sichuan at this time was a purely agricultural province, and in the eyes of a figure like Wang Zhongzheng, it was a place of little strategic value.

Xie Niancheng proposed that he wanted to attack Sichuan, and he naturally would not have any reason to oppose it.

"Nian Cheng, Cai Hua of the Dian Army, but he is going on a northern expedition, I don't know what the odds are?"

Xie Niancheng understands that Wang Zhongzheng is asking this out of good intentions, according to the arrangement of the Northern Expedition, several troops will set off at the same time, Yunnan and Sichuan border, if Xie Niancheng arrives in Wuhan, Cai Hua will defeat Chengdu, then when Xie Niancheng returns to Sichuan, who will he fight?

"Uncle Wang, although the Sichuan army is now divided internally, I estimate that the nature of their reactionary warlords determines that when facing the attack of the revolutionary army, they will definitely resist in a group. There are difficulties in transportation between Sichuan and Yunnan, and I estimate that General Cai's difficulties will be great. ”

Xie Niancheng's words, Wang Zhongzheng naturally understood as soon as he heard this, which meant that Cai Hua would not be the opponent of the Sichuan army.

"Okay, your idea is very good, I support you, if your troops join me in this combat direction, then we will have a greater chance of defeating Wu Fu, how is your regiment preparing now?"

"Our regiment now has more than 2,000 people and is fully equipped, but the training is not enough, and we will not be able to practice for a few months, so I am afraid that the combat effectiveness will not be good."

"Time is pressing, I'll give you a bottom, the troops will be sent in September, you go back and prepare."

Those who knew the news, except for a few bigwigs of the Socialist Party and generals at and above the level of various armies, Xie Niancheng was the first batch of people.

"Thank you Uncle Wang, I will speed up my preparations when I go back!" Xie Niancheng was very grateful to Wang Zhongzheng for revealing this top-secret information, and he also sincerely wrote down this favor.

Wang Zhongzheng looked at Xie Niancheng's back, and couldn't make up his mind about how to arrange Xie Niancheng's troops for a while.

Let Xie Niancheng play as a striker?

Think about what he did in Chaozhou, if Xie Niancheng played the front and Xie Bu made smooth progress, then his troops would not be able to reap any benefits.

Let him play defender?

Isn't that for other troops to help Xie Niancheng open up the road to Sichuan?

That's too cheap, thank you.

Let him go it alone?

It doesn't seem appropriate to let a regiment independently assume a direction of attack.
