Wu Xiaoliang reported to Xu Shuzheng on the situation of the army, and the mixed regiment is now in a state of flux, and many students are ready to return to school and resume classes, hoping that the official document of the 6th Military Department will be issued as soon as possible. Another major problem is the issue of expanding the number of troops, and we hope that it will be resolved at an early date.

The soldiers can solve the problem of the deputy commander of the 6th Army with just a few phone calls, but the expansion and commendation order are not something he can solve, Feng Guozhang prevaricates and delays the appointment decision of Duan Qirui, and Xu Shuzheng feels powerless.

"Feng Huafu and Zhigong are now separated from each other, and the issue of expanding and rewarding the mixed group will drag on for some time, but it won't be too long." Xu Shuzheng expected that Feng Guozhang's temperament was not firm enough, and if Duan Qirui was tougher, he would not insist on opposing it. Moreover, his real intention was the three governors of the Yangtze River, and making things difficult for Wu Xiaoliang was nothing more than to increase his bargaining chips in his plan to protect the territory of the three provinces of Liangjiang and Hubei.

Wu Xiaoliang smiled when he heard this: "I see, why should Zhishuai suppress it, and within two days, Xiaoliang promised to make the acting president disgraced." ”

Xu Shuzheng's curiosity suddenly rose.

Back at the 15th Mixed Regiment Station of the Temple of Heaven, Wu Xiaoliang picked up the phone and asked for Xu Shichang's private residence, and a familiar female voice remembered: "Hey-who?" ”

"It's me"

Of course, Xu Zibing could hear Wu Xiaoliang's voice, and his little heart beat faster. Recently, it was rumored that he only led a group of people to recover Beijing, and when it came to the young head of Wu, he had to praise him as a good man, and she was also happy when she heard it.

She is now working as a reporter at the "Shuncheon Times", and Wu Xiaoliang said helplessly: "What is good about the Japanese newspaper? ”

"What's wrong, the authorities don't dare to close their newspapers." The implication is that domestic newspapers have become the echo of the authorities, and Wu Xiaoliang secretly sighed that a journalist like Xu Zibing, who pursues press freedom, naturally chooses foreign newspapers.

Xu Zibing then teased: "Your Duan Zhishuai, aren't you closer to the Japanese?" ”

Wu Xiaoliang no longer entangled with her on this topic, explained his intention straightforwardly, and provoked Xu Zibing to complain, when she was fine, she didn't save zài, and came to her when she had something, but she still agreed.

"This is Miss Ben's specialty, wait for the good news." After that, he didn't wait for Wu Xiaoliang to answer, and hung up the phone angrily.

There was a hissing electric current on the phone.

The next day, the "Fengtian Shibao" took the lead in making a long report: Acting President Feng Guozhang eliminated dissidents for his own selfish interests, and attacked Wu Xiaoliang, the head of the 15 th Mixed Regiment who had made meritorious contributions in recovering Beijing. As soon as this news came out, all circles in Beijing were in an uproar, and various newspapers printed and reprinted it one after another, and it spread in the ancient city of Beijing in one day.

"Recovering the capital is the work of the country, just a small major general, he Feng Guozhang will not do it, if he is left in the former Qing Dynasty, he will be made a marquis."

"Who's to say it isn't? His Feng Guozhang's subordinates are still rebellious, and they will still be crowned overseers anyway. ”

……

For a time, Feng Guozhang became notorious, and the hats of rejecting dissidents and suppressing heroes were buttoned down one after another. Engaging in public opinion offensive is Wu Xiaoliang's forte, and he easily pushed Feng Guozhang to the forefront, and it was a killer for the pawn to cross the river.

During the period of the Beiyang government, although the political situation was chaotic, most of the people in power were conservative former ministers of the Qing Dynasty, who were deeply influenced by Confucianism, and cherished their own feathers and did not dare to go against public opinion.

Feng Guozhang was preparing to succeed the president, and suddenly made such a scandal, caught off guard and became angry.

"Who? Who reported it? Check it out for me, and find out that one by one is sealed. Feng Guozhang roared regardless of his face, and was disrupted by someone as soon as he opened the game, and he couldn't be angry. Now it is the critical moment when he is planning the three governors of the Yangtze River for his subordinates, and he is moving his whole body, when did Duan Zhiquan's methods become so tricky? As soon as the scandal came out, he Feng Guozhang had fallen behind.

The attendant Wuguan trembled and waited for his anger to subside, and when he saw Feng Guozhang calm down, he said: "President, this matter is the initiator of the "Shuntian Times", the newspaper of the Japanese, and we can't interfere. ”

Feng Guozhang, as a direct leader, has always been pro-British and American, and has no good feelings towards Japan, but he does not dare to offend these Oriental dwarves, so it seems that he has no choice but to give up and suffer this loss. He waved his hand at the attendant martial arts hall to signal him to go out, but the military attache continued: "There is another thing, it is very strange. ”

"What?"

"The reporter of "Shuntian Times" is the young lady of Xu Bugong's family."

"Oh?"

The reporter who shook out that he suppressed Wu Xiaoliang was actually Xu Shichang's daughter, which is indeed very intriguing, Xu Shichang is a heavyweight veteran of Beiyang, and his status is far-reaching, but he has no military power and can only survive in the gap between the two systems, is this a statement of his?

Xu Zibing didn't expect that his report would bring confusion to his father, and invisibly offended Feng Guozhang, and Duan Qirui knew that the initiator had nothing to do with him, so naturally he didn't have to admit his feelings.

Wu Xiaoliang crossed the river with a pawn to solve a big problem for Duan Qirui, and his uncle Duan Zhigui had served as the commander-in-chief of the rebel Western Route Army in the crusade against Zhang Xun, and he intended to let him supervise the army in Jiangsu and seize the territory vacated by Feng Guozhang after entering Beijing. Where was Feng Guozhang willing to obediently abandon his nest, he transferred Jiangxi Governor Li Chun to supervise Jiangsu, and ordered Wang Tingzhen, the commander of the 16th Division, to lead his troops into Nanjing and Qi Xieyuan to assist him in defense; Chen Guangyuan, the commander of the 12th Division, was his old subordinate and served as the governor of Jiangxi, and Wang Zhanyuan still supervised Hubei, so the three governors of the Yangtze River were still firmly in his direct hands.

Now, Feng Guozhang has been playing a good game of chess, and Chen Guangyuan is unable to go to Jiangxi again in order to block everyone's mouth, so Duan Zhigui is cheaper and becomes the governor of Jiangxi. As for Wu Xiaoliang, a little pawn, he regretted it even more because of the small loss, and hated to stamp the presidential seal on the letter of appointment. In order to appease Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui made appropriate concessions and agreed to appoint Li Chun as commander-in-chief of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

Duan Qirui's dog's mouth successfully grabbed food, and the strength of the Anhui system increased greatly. The little unhappiness with Wu Xiaoliang before dissipated, and he met with the head of the regiment who had made "great contributions" to him.

"A good talent recommended by Zheng again." Duan Qirui praised the two of them repeatedly, he knew that his first think tank was too proud and too sick, so he still cared about his feelings when praising other subordinates.

Xu Shuzheng opened his mouth and said: "Weizhong, Zhi Shuai has appointed you as the commander of the 15th Mixed Brigade Major General, and from today onwards, you will be the youngest general in the country. ”

Wu Xiaoliang thought that this time he would also be as low-rank and high-level as the horse factory, but when he heard that Duan Qirui was going to appoint himself as a genuine major general and brigade commander, he sighed greatly, no wonder Lao Duan could become the leader of the Beiyang family, never sparing the officials, and his subordinates dared not to serve their lives with death.

"Premier Xie was promoted, and he must serve the country loyally and live up to the high expectations of the prime minister."

Duan Qirui was very satisfied with Wu Xiaoliang's statement, and changed his words and said: "The government will declare war on Germany and Austria tomorrow, Weizhong, what do you think?" ”

Wu Xiaoliang knew that Lao Duan was not asking for his opinion, but a test, and Lao Duan wanted to see if the cadres he was interested in promoting were consistent with his thoughts.
