Chapter 212: The Longhua Civil War Begins
When Xu Bin made a fortune to eliminate submarines, the navy was replenished with much-needed warships, and everything went very smoothly. The political scene of Longhua Kingdom changed again, and it was jointly signed by several governors of the southern provinces, plus many members of the parliament. A political trend that seemed to be very evil once again spread rapidly in Longhua Kingdom.
The reason is very simple, with the great victory of the Xu Jiajun's navy, coupled with the first two battles to protect the country, the volunteer division sent by the Xu Jiajun to Beiyi eliminated nearly 100,000 little devils in one fell swoop. What even Xu Bin didn't expect was that several governors in the south would jointly call for an early presidential election.
Let Xu Bin, who was strongly opposed and protested by them when he first became governor, become the president of Longhuaguo. What makes Xu Bin feel that this is a bit evil is that there are still many members of the cabinet who agree. For a time, Xu Bin's prestige in Longhua rose sharply, and he had the taste of overpowering Li Shichang and Guo Tianyou in one fell swoop.
Although Xu Bin really wanted to sit in that seat, it was impossible to hope in this situation, and he could suppress these governors with his current ability. He soon sent a telegram to Li Shichang, hoping that the other side would not affect the normal exchanges between the two armies and the people because of these so-called public opinions.
But when Li Shichang called back, he didn't seem to believe it at all, and there was a sour taste that Xu Bin was indeed more suitable than him to be the president, Xu Bin knew that no matter who made this evil trend, at least it proved that he had succeeded. Let Xu Jiajun become the focus of political defense of all parties in the country for a while.
In the face of this increasingly victorious atmosphere of civil war, Xu Bin quickly sent a telegram, and at the same time published the so-called kind reminder in his own handwriting in the newspaper under his control. Let some people who really support Xu Jiajun not be influenced by those with bad intentions. At his current age, it is impossible for him to take on this position.
Therefore, he is very grateful to the public and parliamentarians for their support to him. But the presidency should still be held by a veteran man. As for his lack of daring to have any intention of getting involved in the president's throne, he felt that the current governor of the five provinces was enough for him to worry about a lot. Even if you have the heart to work for the welfare of the people of Longhua, you don't have the ability.
And along with the telegram and the newspaper, there was also a thank-you letter with the same charm. That is, Xu Bin is very grateful for the enthusiasm and recommendation of these neighboring governors in the south, which makes him very grateful. Perhaps in the near future, he will personally lead the troops to thank them for their enthusiasm.
This kind of words, which everyone knew were threats, suddenly reminded these bad-hearted governors of Xu Bin's stunned character. If you really want to provoke the other party, it is really possible to raise troops to commit crimes. But they didn't say they were going to beat them. It's also a sign of gratitude for leading the troops!
The governors, who pretended to be stupid and stunned, faced with this Xu Bin, who was very likely to act if he was unhappy, finally stopped making a lot of remarks as before, preaching what benefits Xu Bin had as president. The wind began to blow. Promoted by the members of the Revolutionary Army, the proposal of Guo Tianyou to be the president.
This wind blows in one direction. The situation Tianyou, who has been in the position of prime minister recently, was also stunned. As for Li Shichang, who has gradually fallen into a powerless successor in the recent military struggle. Naturally, he was also wary of the situation. Just after these governors in the south, who were afraid of chaos in the world, changed their guns and elected Guo Tianyou as the new president of Longhua State, an incident happened in Longcheng. The originally calm situation in Longhua Kingdom fell into chaos again.
The reason is simple, that is, as the prime minister, Guo Tianyou, actually went to the House of Representatives to preside over the work. Assassinated by gunmen. Although his life was unharmed, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the revolutionary army unanimously believed that the assassination was carried out by Li Shichang. They plan to send a large army into Beijing to protect their leader. and get back an announcement.
Li Shichang, who seemed a little speechless, shouted 'Long live President Li' when the gunman was caught, and then committed suicide by swallowing a gun. This is really yellow mud off the pants, it's not but.
As the revolutionary leader who overthrew the last dynasty of Longhua, the prestige of Tianyou in Longhua is naturally not comparable to ordinary people. In particular, his military morale and popularity in the two provinces of Nanbin and Guixi are unmatched. Now that this spiritual leader was almost assassinated, how can the soldiers and civilians of the two provinces not be angered?
As the revolutionary army began to assemble, everyone knew that a civil war seemed to be about to break out, and the wounded body was dragged to avoid civil war. Held a press conference to call on his soldiers not to be impulsive. drag the country that is in the midst of a national war to the brink of civil war.
At the same time, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he had to hold his body that had just undergone surgery and take the train from Longcheng back to Nanbin to preside over the overall situation. To pacify the ruling area, it seems that there is also some hasty military and civilian sentiment. For this kind of selfless loyalty to the country, there is no doubt that after this assassination, Guo Tianyou's prestige has once again been raised to the extreme.
Li Shichang, who was helplessly lying down and was shot, naturally became the target of everyone's shouting and beating, only Xu Bin, who knew who was behind all this, sent a telegram to calm the people. Don't fall for the wicked who deliberately undermine the stability of Longhua, this matter should not be done by Li Shichang.
As a result, this telegram to Xu Bin was exchanged for criticism that the two were in the same stream. Although this is only the words spoken by a small number of people, it does make Xu Bin see that there is currently a black hand that is manipulating public opinion in Longhua, fanning many people who are excited and do not know the truth of the matter, so that Longhua Kingdom is on the verge of civil war.
may have seen that among these governors, only Xu Bin was Li Shichang, who sincerely supported him, and also made a daoqian for suspecting Xu Bin that day. It's just that in the face of this kind of daoqian, in Xu Bin's opinion, it doesn't make much sense. Now he has instructed Xu Jiajun's intelligence department to intensify the crackdown on the Japanese army's spy personnel.
Yes, in Xu Bin's opinion, people who can make trouble in Longhua Country are not considered as second candidates except for little devils. When the army was blocked and the navy was frustrated, the little devils urgently needed to adjust their operational arrangements. Therefore, the most haode way is undoubtedly to provoke a civil war in all provinces of Longhua Kingdom, and the most ideal is the confrontation between the north and the south. This is in line with the little devil's abacus!
Originally, he also pushed Xu Bin, the enemy, to the front, but Xu Bin did not accept the invitation, and even sent a telegram to threaten the southern governors who had gained benefits, and if they dared to pull him out as a target, Xu Bin led his troops to arrest them as targets.
Encountering this kind of scoundrel-like stunned youth, the spy officers of the little devils are unwilling, but it is enough to intimidate these southern governors who don't want to change their lives. In desperation, the little devil could only come up with another trick, that is, to dismantle the top level of Longhua Kingdom, which seemed to be becoming more and more stable. God bless this situation, the traitors they supported at the beginning were pushed to the forefront.
When he realized that the time was almost up, such an assassination farce was staged again, which made Li Shichang completely stand on the opposite side of the people who did not know the truth. This interlocking Jihua, combined with the current intelligence that the governors of various provinces are at odds with each other, naturally ignited the chaos in Longhua.
And in order to let the people of Longhua Kingdom not put the target of suspicion on their heads, the little devil's recent military movements in Heihe Prefecture and Jizhou Mansion have also become very honest and gentle. As soon as I pretend to seize both sides of the territory, I will be very satisfied. Take this opportunity to transfer the situation of Longhua State with the same guns!
It's one thing to be clear, there is no evidence to conclusively say that this is something that little devils have made. What's more, there are many people who are willing to sell their souls for money these days. These hazes of civil war, all caused by some scum in Longhua Kingdom, undoubtedly rational people, also seem to see the rumors of the imminent start of civil war.
Even Xu Bin, in order to cope with the possible civil war, in the area under his control, has now begun to enter a state of pre-war preparation. The militia organizations in various provinces are now patrolling and defending with guns in hand. The armies that confronted the other provinces were also all in a state of combat readiness, waiting for Xu Bin's battle order that might be issued at any time.
When everyone was watching what the revolutionary army would do this time, when he returned to the headquarters of the revolutionary army, he found that the three governors who were released seemed to be a little deviant from him. Knowing that this is because he has been away from here for too long, these old people, who are also unwilling to be a governor, also want to feel what it is like to be a governor.
What made Guo Tianyou even more chilling was that through the information provided by the intelligence department of the revolutionary army that he had been controlling, two of the three governors who had been released to control military and political affairs were found to have had contact with the people of the Sun Country.
At the same time, after Kuang Tianyou left Nanhamin Province as prime minister, these governors began to suppress the generals of the Kuang family, and promoted their henchmen to take over the power departments of the military and the junta, and seemed to be suspected of overthrowing him as the commander-in-chief. This undoubtedly made Guo Tianyou, who had come back with injuries, suddenly feel a little discouraged, why did the revolutionary army he created single-handedly become such a chaotic state today?
Knowing that the revolutionary army must not be chaotic at this time, Tianyou also has the iron-blooded side of the soldiers, and summoned those die-hard generals in the army for a secret meeting. Directly control the matter of the mutiny, which served as the governor of Nanbin and the governor of Guixi, and escorted these two old ministers who had renegade to the general headquarters for interrogation.
As for Zuihou's expansion of Minnan Province, there was an accident in the end. The governor from southern Fujian, in order to stabilize the situation in southern Fujian and the people's hearts, Tianyou deliberately embodied the governor appointed by benevolence and righteousness. Suddenly, the Hokkien army under his control, like a revolutionary army with its troops in the air, launched a fierce attack.
After the revolutionary army that was preparing to mutiny was defeated with heavy casualties, the governor suddenly sent a telegram announcing the independence of southern Fujian. broke away from the establishment of the revolutionary army and threw out a so-called remark that the people of southern Fujian were in charge of southern Fujian. Privately accept the assistance of the little devils and expand the troops under him. In order to achieve its attempt to split southern Fujian!
If it weren't for the fear of attracting the disgust of the people, the governor, who had always been in collusion with the Japanese army, would have proposed that the Japanese army send an army to protect it! This move undoubtedly told the people of Longhua that the civil war was still ignited! (To be continued......)
