After eating a meal for two hours, everyone dispersed, He Rufei stayed overnight under the pretext of being upset, but he did not ask a woman to accompany him, he said that he wanted to be quiet. But before leaving, Feng Huanzhang walked up to He Rufei and said in a low voice: "Chief He, my troops are all fighting with me from Hubei to Hunan, from Hunan to Sichuan, from Sichuan to Henan, and now together with the old troops in Beijing. ”

He Rufei patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Huanzhang, you are still a friend enough." ”

Feng Yuxiang said: "President He treats me like a right-hand man, and his confidant treats him, and he naturally does not thank President He for his kindness." ”

After everyone left, Ji Xiangdong came from another room to He Rufei's resting room, and Du Yuanyuan immediately closed the door and guarded the door. Now He Rufei frowned, his face showed a look of anxiety and dilemma, Ji Xiangdong saw that he really didn't ask a woman to accompany him. is really a person who does great things, and he is not messing up in the land of fireworks, so he came over and said with a smile: "Chief He, looking at today's situation, you are increasingly being squeezed out of the leadership of the Ministry of National Defense." ”

He Rufei complained with a wry smile: "Yes, since Ren Yuanxing and Zhu Yongquan sued me for a black case, I have been more and more rejected by the generalissimo. And what about colleagues? You have to know that there is a saying that is not well-said, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and it is easy to fall into the well? In today's situation, in addition to that black state, many people speak ill of me in front of the generalissimo. ”

Ji Xiangdong took the opportunity to say: "In that case, why do you have to go all the way to the dark? ”

"What do you mean......" He Rufei knew it, but he didn't break it.

Ji Xiangdong scolded in his heart, You He Xiangyun will give me not to pretend to understand, so he continued: "Doesn't the generalissimo want to be the vice president? You recommend him to be vice president, as long as you have military power, it doesn't matter who is president. Look at Sun Liwen, isn't he a puppet? Look at Meng Enyuan, look at Xu Shichang, they are all puppets. This year. Whoever holds the military power is the master. My friends absolutely support you as defense chief, and they want me to help spread the word that if you become defense chief, they will consider returning Taiwan to China. Think about it, Taiwan, what a glory it would be if Taiwan returned to China in your hands! ”

He Rufei became short of breath, and Ji Xiangdong said again: "In addition to returning Taiwan, they will also lend money to the National Defense Forces." This is what we do to support you. ”

He Rufei thought about it, but he still hung his head and said, "No, it's too difficult." ”

Ji Xiangdong hated iron and said: "Chief He." It's not difficult at all, haven't you noticed that there is a great opportunity in front of you? But don't learn from Yuan Shao's short-sightedness. ”

"Tell me about it." He Rufei pretended to be dazed and said.

Ji Xiangdong was overjoyed when he saw that he intended to be so happy, and immediately explained what he had thought about a long time ago, and said, "First, you are an old man in the National Defense Army for many years. You have been here since the beginning of the Wehrmacht, and you can say that you are the only one who knows the Wehrmacht. Second. The Wehrmacht has a large number of people who support you, the Lu Da faction, and the original model faction, all support you, and the other factions are not the same as the Green Forest Department and the Beiyang Department, the Guards Department and the Yakeshi Department are too immature, and as for those people from the Loose Faction, it is okay for anyone to be the leader. There is only one opponent in the Baoding department, but you look at the person in charge of the Baoding department. Li Delin. Li Delin still graduated from the Baoding Military Academy. He is also the identity of the big brother of the Baoding department, in addition to this identity, what do you say he is capable of? After so many years, a spy leader can't do it well. Third. You have the support of my friends, my friends could let Yuan Shikai step down, let Zhang Zuolin step down, and naturally let you come to power. In the past few years that Wang Maoru has been the commander of the National Defense Forces, he has never had conflicts with any country, and has he not backed Europe and the United States? But if you look at it now, some countries in Europe and the United States have long lost patience with him when they are playing with him. If you come to power, countries around the world will support you. Fourth, after you come to power, you don't want to kill him, after all, he has such a great merit, but you can learn from Cao Cao and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes. You restricted his freedom and made him a happy man, that is, you didn't make you feel sorry for yourself -- Chief He, if you want to say that you are still too soft-hearted, my friend said that it is better to let him be blown up by train - and let him also be addicted to being president. Isn't he going to be president? What else is the vice president, just let him be the president, isn't he crazy happy? How can you be sorry for him? ”

He Rufei seemed to be moved by Ji Xiangdong's words, but he sighed again: "What I'm afraid of now is the army outside." He analyzed: "The legions in the south, south, and northwest, if they are in trouble, our generation will die and have no place to be buried." ”

Ji Xiangdong said funny: "Let's count them one by one, the first legion, the new corps commander Gong Xiaoqi is in Beijing and has not left yet, if you control him, and then issue a telegram order to the first legion, let Wang Jiejun, the commander of the third division, serve as the commander of the first legion, and the White Tiger Legion will definitely be fixed." The Third Division contributed a lot in this battle, but Wang Jiejun, the Central Asian tiger, had no reward at all, he must be dissatisfied, and he must be the easiest to buy. ”

He Rufei shook his head and sighed: "There is quite a misunderstanding between me and him." ”

Ji Xiangdong couldn't help laughing and said: "Those who become big things are not informal, Wang Jiejun is a talent, you have to catch it, you can't give away talents in vain because of a little personal grudge." And the first legion of the stable dìng can only be Wang Jiejun. ”

He Rufei nodded and said with a smile: "The second legion is the Qinglong Legion in Nurgan, the new corps commander Wei Dongling is in Beijing, and after controlling zhì, he orders any division commander to take over, and the Qinglong Legion will be stable." ”

Ji Xiangdong clapped his hands and smiled: "That's the reason, in addition, Yong Xingbao, the commander of the Xuanwu Legion of the Fourth Legion, and Gai Tianjiu, the commander of the Ghost Car Legion of the Eighth Legion, are in Beijing, as long as you control these people and promote their subordinates to be military supervisors, the overall situation will be settled." In addition, let's talk about which legions will support you if you control Beijing. First of all, the first one is the Phoenix Legion of the Seventh Legion, the commander of the legion is Du Baosan, but he is your good brother, he will definitely support you; The second is Fei Chaogui of the Eleventh Legion, your old subordinate; The third is Gu Pinzhen, the commander of the 13th Army Corps. You now have six legions, and then there's the neutral legions that remain motionless, and they're not going to support you or hold you back. Including the troops of Li Pinxian of the Third Legion, the troops of Mao Ziping of the Fifth Legion, the men and horses of Zhang Zhuwu of the Ninth Legion, Jiang Dengxuan of the Tenth Legion, and the Twelfth and Fourteenth Legions. Who will oppose you, there are the troops of Zhao Zengfu of the Sixth Army and the troops of Zhao Qing of the Fifteenth Army. But Zhao Zengfu's people are far away in Liangguang, and Zhao Qing's men and horses are composed of the Sichuan army, the Gui army and the Dian army, and he handles military affairs by himself. With only two forces against you, what else do you have to worry about? ”

He Rufei said cautiously: "Can you ensure that Mao Ziping and Li Pinxian's men and horses will stay put?" ”

Ji Xiangdong laughed and said: "Actually, it's too easy, they were originally one to defend North Korea and the other to defend Kwantung Prefecture." As long as my friend is a little restrained in North Korea and Kwantung Prefecture, these two people will definitely not be able to move. He squinted his eyes and smiled, "Besides, you are actually in control of the Eighth Legion, and you have six legions under your command, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Eighth Legion...... It's hard to control. He Rufei said lightly.

Ji Xiangdong smiled bitterly: "You're not afraid of covering the sky for a long time, right?" He is a bandit leader, and he doesn't know a few big characters, that is, he has been loyal to Wang Maoru for a long time, so he became the commander of the army. You can ask, who in the Eighth Legion convinced him to be the commander? Besides, Gai Tianjiu never dreamed that his old brother Li Kuan would take refuge in you, and when the time comes, we will directly let Li Kuan set up a Hongmen banquet to kill Gai Tianjiu, and then let Feng Yuxiang kill Jiang Kaitong and control the 26th Division, as for Cai Chengxun, the commander of the 34th Division, is an honest old Beiyang, it is estimated that he does not want to be involved in it, and the two will definitely not help at that time. ”

He Rufei pondered in his heart, and the more he pondered, the more he felt that there was a play.

Now is the best time, just after the appointment of the commander, all the new military commanders are in Beijing, and a few days later they will go to visit the North and South Military Academies to compete in martial arts, and after arriving at the Baoding Military Academy, as long as they create chaos and control everyone, they can control the entire Ministry of National Defense. On the first day of the North-South Military Academy's martial arts competition, all the top officials of the Ministry of National Defense went to attend the opening ceremony of the competition. As long as one unit controls the Baoding Military Academy, Wang Maoru, Jiang Fangzhen, Wu Peifu, Sa Zhenbing, Yong Xingbao, Wei Dongling, Liu Zhe and others will all have to stay in Baoding for one night.

It's a rare opportunity, it's a rare opportunity - of course, compared to the stars at the ceremony, this opportunity is not the best, but it is the only chance at all.

If you don't seize this opportunity, there will be no more opportunities in the future.

But one of the reasons that worries him is that he doesn't know who is the nail laid by Wang Maoru next to him, and who is Wang Maoru's henchman. It seems that everyone is Wang Maoru's dead soldier, and it seems that everyone is not like it. The files of all the soldiers and guards are seamless like ordinary soldiers, and from the outside, they appear to be ordinary people. But He Rufei knew that Wang Mao was like a group of dead soldiers of the Young Guards, who were taken away when he was young and sent to various people's homes, and when he was old, he joined the army and served as the guards of various military commanders. The top-secret files of these people are only available in the Guards Headquarters, and the archives of the Guards Headquarters can only be seen by a few people, and even the Guards Chief Liu Xiang wants to see them, and they must be approved by Wang Maoru.

A few days ago, an old acquaintance handed him a note to persuade him to do it before he was sealed, but at that time he hesitated. The reason for his hesitation was Wang Maoru's prestige, yes, Wang Maoru's prestige scared him.

After more than ten years of communication, He Rufei and even Wang Maoru are the kind of people who do not fight uncertain battles, and they are also impressed by his extremely accurate prediction. For example, sending people into Russia to rescue the Tsar and let the Russian civil war last for seven years, such as sending Japan north to the Arctic Circle, it must have been a big pocket that Wang Maoru had already laid for the Japanese to get into the trap, and for example, the continuous indigenous vendetta in Southeast Asia and the continuous Indian native riots in India are all carefully arranged by Wang Maoru.
