Chief of Staff Ma Baochen was shocked when he heard this: "Master, weishenme? We Weishenme want to retreat, the will of the Great Emperor Bixia is to let us take Changde! How can I explain this withdrawal to the Great Emperor Bixia?"

Ma Jizeng shook his head and said, "Changde, who still takes a fart?" How to explain, if I guess correctly, this Zili County has been taken by the Youth Army. We are all careless, how did Wang Zhenyu defeat Wang Zhengya in the Second Revolution, that is, he deceived Wang Zhengya's men and horses to the decisive battle in Changde, and then took Wang Zhengya's old nest Li County from the west. Looking at the jiashi of today's battle, if Wang Zhenyu's youth army is only 30,000 people, Lao Tzu will not believe it, grandma's, and I don't know where he got so many arms to arm his army. Chief of Staff, you believe Lao Ma once, I have suffered a loss, Wang Zhenyu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, this guy is scheming. If you think about it, if this battle itself is a huge trap, then we will not be able to explain to the Great Emperor Bixia if we continue to stay here, but we will have to explain it here. ”

Ma Baochen looked at Ma Jizeng gloomily and said: "Master, what you said is a bit too much, it seems that it is really a snake bite for ten years and afraid of the well rope." ”

Ma Jizeng looked at Ma Baochen with angry eyes, and Ma Baochen looked back without backing, and no one spoke for a while.

Ma Jizeng suddenly slapped the table and said angrily: "Ma Baochen, you bastard listen to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is the commander of the First Route Army and the commander of the Sixth Division, and you are just a staff officer, whether you listen to it today or not, you have to follow Lao Tzu's coming, otherwise you will blame Lao Tzu for being polite." ”

Ma Baochen was so angry that his face was flushed, and he was not afraid to tear his face and shouted: "The surname Ma (it seems that he also has this surname), Lao Tzu is not afraid of you, this matter is up to you today, and when I see the emperor Bixia, I have my own share." ”

Ma Jizeng snorted coldly: "Sue me for my black state, okay, then we have to jump out of this dead game to sue." Come on, pass on my military order, and the supplementary brigade will send a regiment to continue the attack tomorrow morning, and the rest of the horses will follow Lao Tzu in. ”

Ma Baochen struggled for a moment: "Master, don't forget, we still have family in Li County!" ”

Ma Jizeng looked back and said: "As long as our Sixth Division is still there, no one will dare to do anything to them, and in turn, you can also try and carry out the order." ”……

"Report to Commander-in-Chief Wan and Commander Liu, and Liao Lei, Commander of the Fourth Division," the staff officer of the military headquarters reported loudly.

"Nian" looked at Wan Yaohuang counting peanuts there with his head down, and Liu Xing could only answer helplessly.

"This morning, the enemy launched a round attack on our main position at Zhujiaqiao, and in view of this, our army took the initiative to abandon the main position of Zhujiaqiao, but did not see the enemy's further attack to expand the results."

Liu Xing hummed for a moment and said: "Very good, let them resist according to the original plan, and continue to lure the enemy to the direction of Changde." ”

Wan Yaohuang suddenly spoke: "Commander Liu, it's not good, it seems that our Jihua has been recognized by Ma Jizeng, he is going to run!" ”

Liu Xing was stunned: "No, Mr. Wan, this telegram said that the Beiyang Army was attacked yesterday and was even more fierce." How could it be possible to retreat, and he Ma Ji had not fought Changde? He wasn't afraid that Lao Yuan Sheng would eat him! ”

"It's just a trick, quickly, order the Fourth Division to immediately start a counterattack on the whole front, notify Zhou Zhengming of the Eighth Division, and immediately start outflanking, be sure to cut off Ma Jizeng's men and horses, and not let an enemy escape across the Yuan River" Wan Yaohuang gave a categorical order.

Liu Xing still admired Wan Yaohuang very much, although he was suspicious, he still nodded to the staff officer and motioned for him to convey the order.

After the staff officer saluted and left, Liu Xing asked, "Teacher Wan, what kind of trick, how can you see it?" ”

Wan Yaohuang picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth and said: "If something goes wrong, it is a demon, you have also read yesterday's battle report, the losses of the Beiyang Army are definitely enough to hurt the muscles and bones, so logically speaking, it is impossible to attack more fiercely today than yesterday." And if Ma Jizeng is really a brave and unscrupulous reckless man, it is even more unlikely that he will stagnate after the onslaught is successful. So there is only one reasonable explanation behind all this abnormality, Ma Jizeng, the old boy, is going to run, and it is definitely not Huili County, it is estimated that he is going to Changsha, otherwise he will not be able to play the trick of gecko tail breaking. ”

After Liu Xing came to his senses, he said hatefully: "It's not so easy to slip away from the fat in my mouth, I will go in person, come and prepare horses, and send two guard companies to accompany me with the Eighth Division." ”

Wan Yaohuang did not dissuade Liu Xing, because although Liu Xing was a year older than him, he was one of the students under his name. His qualifications in the youth army are not early, and his military achievements are not prominent, but he serves as the commander of an army. Some people have long been talking behind their backs that Liu Xing's current status is all due to his younger brother marrying the daughter of the old Wang family. Liu Xing is not a stupid person, and he is also aware of these discussions, but he has been leading them but not triggering them, but he has enough energy in his bones to prove his strength through war.

Another peanut was thrown into his mouth, Wan Yaohuang's eyes were fixed on the map again, and he had been thinking like this for three consecutive days, but he still didn't rest.

The fierce battle in Changde was in full swing, but Wang Zhenyu, the supreme commander, did not focus all his energy on the war, and he suddenly went to the Yuanjiang Daily office at this moment, and Chen Gongbo, the second president and editor-in-chief of the newspaper, accompanied him throughout the whole process. After several years of development, Yuanjiang Daily has become a well-known media in China and is a sought-after newspaper in the whole southern China. After the outbreak of the Protectorate War, the newspaper continued to issue anti-Yuan calls, although this led to the severe seizure of the military and political authorities in Jiangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangsu and other places. However, the political image of Wang Zhenyu and his national socialist party has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Chen Gongbo, who had been dismissed from the post of head of the propaganda department of the National Socialist Party because of his ineffective propaganda work at the grassroots level, has also made a comeback.

"Xiao Chen, this propaganda war is very beautiful, especially in Shanghai. After reading your newspapers, many patriotic youths came to Anjiang one after another to take part in the revolutionary work of our Kuomintang Socialist Party. Li Delin from Guangxi also sent me a telegram saying that the contingent of doctors and nurses, which had been difficult to fill up in the expansion work, had also been filled with the arrival of a large number of young men and women from Guangdong. This is the credit of you, as well as all your colleagues in Yuanjiang Daily, I will say hello to Wang Chunling when I go back, and I must reward you meritorious heroes. ”

Chen Gongbo's tears were about to come out when he heard this: "The big handsome, the humble is not talented, I have lost the trust of the big boss before, and I failed to do a good job in our party's propaganda work." Therefore, this time I learned from the pain, but fortunately the other colleagues of the newspaper worked together to complete the trust of the commander, which is really not worthy of any credit. ”

Wang Zhenyu seemed to see through Chen Gongbo's careful thoughts, just smiled shallowly, and then patted Chen Gongbo's shoulder with praise. It seems that Chen Gongbo is indeed a person who is not very old and has a lot of official addiction. After Wang Chunling was transferred to the head of the Propaganda Department, her independence in political views was too obvious, and she also had resistance to some of her own views, so it was not easy to use. Wang Zhenyu already had the heart to wait for the end of the war, so he transferred Wang Chunling to Xiangxi United University, which was jointly composed of medical schools and industrial Jishu schools, to serve as the president and director of education of the Xiangxi Administrative Office, and he was responsible for participating in the construction of Xiangxi in the future. As for the Propaganda Department of the National Socialist Party, it may really need someone like Chen Gongbo to preside over it in order to meet his own requirements, what Wang Zhenyu didn't realize is that his heart is actually quietly moving closer to the **.

Just as Wang Zhenyu was about to encourage everyone a few more words, Huang Shaohong walked in and said in Wang Zhenyu's ear: "Shuai, Mr. Frankie, the general manager of Warby Bank, said that he has something important to see. ”

Since Warby Bank successfully provided Wang Zhenyu with a loan of 10 million pounds, Frankie's position in Wallland Bank has become indistinguishable. The subsequent railway construction projects and industrial development projects have made the top management of Huabi Bank realize that Xiangxi is not a barren land, but a huge cornucopia.

The subsequent outbreak of the European war made the investment climate in Europe very bad, and the large-scale immigration of Luxembourg made European investors pay attention to the local government in Xianggui, China. As their in-depth investigation unfolded, they came to a very valid conclusion that Wang Zhenyu and the local government of Hunan and Guizhou under his leadership were different from the average Chinese government and Chinese officials, and although they were not service-oriented, they were indeed construction-oriented governments. The most important point is that governments at all levels are relatively efficient and clean, and the county-level government is modeled after the European system of direct elections, although the scope of direct elections is limited to the middle class and the wealthy, but the independent judicial system restricts the possibility of the powerful to do whatever they want. With easy access, social stability, abundant resources, cheap labor and significant returns, you can't find a better place to invest than in the whole of China.

Under these circumstances, the European capital that entered the Xianggui region through the Warby Bank amounted to a staggering £25 million in 1915, which should have been consumed in vain in the European war. The whole Anjiang, Liuzhou, and guests have entered large-scale construction, among which Anjiang has also formed a situation in which Luyang, Qiancheng, Hongjiang, and Anjiang are built together.

After Wang Zhenyu decided to negotiate with Yuan, in order to ensure that the investment could be recovered, Warby Bank urgently added an unsecured low-interest loan of 5 million pounds as Wang Zhenyu's military expenses for this military trip. Therefore, Wang Zhenyu couldn't ignore the request of such a big financier, and he immediately got up and shook hands with Chen Gongbo and others one by one to say goodbye.
