The moment the eyes of the two people collided in the air, Xiao Lingling suddenly had an illusion in her heart. The look was so presumptuous, so wild, like a wild beast suddenly breaking into her heart, she didn't even have time to take precautions.

When her father talked about her identity, Xiao Lingling glanced at Du Yuesheng out of the corner of her eyes, and she thought that this person should be more restrained. But she found that she was wrong, and the eyes were still so hot, so unscrupulous staring at herself, that she felt uneasy.

Her heart trembled suddenly, the woman's intuition let her know that this man was dangerous, this man might ruin her unhappy life now, she wanted to avoid this man, but there was a faint trace of inexplicable attachment to this danger in her heart.

She was a little scared, she knew she might be done.

Beijing.

Yang Xiaolin said that it would take at least half a year for him to recover his war capability, and Lao Yuan certainly knew this. Yuan Shikai was an expert in warfare, and the reason why the Volunteers were able to defeat the Japanese was first of all due to tactical correctness.

Yang Xiaolin did not flinch in the face of the danger of war, but took the initiative to provoke the flames of war, first forcibly entered Korea, disrupted the pace of the Japanese war, and induced the Russians to sit back and watch the war. Then they miraculously killed Zaitao, so that the battle continued in the footsteps of the volunteers, which was the subjective factor for them to win the war.

Victory in a war is not only with correct tactics, but also with a strong logistics system as a support point. From this point of view, Yang Dagui, who had just rushed out of the artillery fire of the Russo-Japanese War, did not have the ability to fight a large-scale war with the Japanese army.

Little Japan's national strength is still unable to support it, and Yang Dagui's little thing is really not enough to see. The reason why Liaodong can laugh at zuihou. I would like to thank Belle Ye Zaitao for his strong support.

During the Russo-Japanese War, Zaitao was desperately developing in Jinzhou, and the grain, grass and ammunition were very abundant. As a result, these strategic materials all fell into the hands of Yang Dagui when the war just began. A thousand artillery pieces, countless grains and grass. 50,000 soldiers!

Killing the Qing army is like letting the volunteers drink a sip of perfect tonic soup, and that guy who fights the ghost suddenly has the ability to fight a large-scale artillery battle with the Japanese army! This is also the key point for the victory of the volunteer army.

But Bei Leye's shells were indeed exhausted by Yang Dagui, if he wanted those thousand artillery pieces to let out a soul-stirring roar again, if he wanted the Qing army that was reorganized by him to have the same combat effectiveness as the Volunteer Army, and if he wanted the entire Northeast to support him like Liaodong, Yang Xiaolin had to stay honestly for a while!

Lao Yuan saw this very clearly, and he knew even more that when Yang Xiaolin integrated all the liliang and pounced over with a heavily armed volunteer army, the momentum was bound to be fierce!

Can you live on your own? Lao Yuan really has no confidence in his heart.

The fat body sat in a high-end sofa bought from France. The whole person was trapped, Duan Qirui sat opposite him, and Mr. Li stood on the side with his head down. Yuan Shikai's brows furrowed tightly: "Zhiquan, what's the situation in Jinzhou?" ”

"Big brother, the Volunteers and we are fighting in the city, although there is no conflict at the moment, but just yesterday, the troops facing us were changed."

"Changed?"

"Yes, the previous unit was Zhang Zuolin's. The banner carried is the Liaodong Volunteer Army's Liaoxi Independent Brigade, and the day before yesterday a group of people were replaced, and it was the third regiment of their Liaoxi detachment, the regiment commander Wei Hui. And a regiment of the Liaoxi detachment. The second regiment and the fourth regiment also drove to the vicinity of Jinzhou. There are also a number of recruits who are constantly being thrown into Jinzhou. I heard that they are waiting to be reorganized, and the Liaoxi detachment after the reorganization will become three divisions of the Volunteer Army. The number is between 30,000 and 40,000. ”

Lao Yuan unconsciously shook his hands together when he heard this. He has done a lot of work on the Volunteer Army, and naturally knows that the so-called Liaoxi Independent Brigade is actually some militia and the Qing army that has just been reorganized. The Liaoxi detachment was the main force under Yang Xiaolin.

Yang Xiaolin put this army in Jinzhou, which is equivalent to putting the sharpest steel knife by his side. The message conveyed by Yang Dagui is very clear, that is, once he is allowed to catch his breath, he will press Beijing City as he discussed with Yuan Shikai! He's going to get in! He won't wait for himself to prepare haode as well.

And what about your own side?

Lao Yuan is not ready, he needs time.

Duan Qirui obviously knew Lao Yuan's thoughts, and said at the moment: "Big brother, don't worry, I have already transferred Sun Chuanfang's troops and Xu Shuzheng's troops to reinforcements, and set up three lines of defense on the periphery of Jinzhou. ”

Yuan Shikai nodded, Sun Chuanfang and Xu Shuzheng are also his old brothers, in terms of military deployment, Duan Qirui has done the best he can do now.

Yuan Shikai's hand relaxed a little and touched his beard: "These are not enough. Ordered Feng Guozhang to also approach Shanhaiguan. We must set up a fourth line of defense behind Jinzhou! Even the fifth course! You must not let Yang Dagui get close to Beijing, absolutely not! ”

After hearing this, Mr. Li nodded: "What Yuan Gong said is right. Now foreigners regard Yuan Gong as China's savior, and some domestic industrialists also pin their hopes on Yuan Gong, once Yang beats the ghost to Beijing, it will definitely be a fatal blow to our reputation in Beiyang. ”

Yuan Shikai snorted: "I have reliable news, that guy Zaifeng and the Japanese are ready to move me, I'm just waiting for them to do it first, and then we can justifiably kill all these guys who are in the way." ”

As Yuan Shikai's number one confidant, Duan Qirui certainly knows everything about Lao Yuan. To be honest, he felt that Lao Yuan was too careful, the current situation can be said to be at the end of the road in the Manchu Dynasty, and Lao Yuan can take action at any time as long as he wants. Duan Qirui thought that Yuan Shikai had no need to wait for Zaifeng and the others to do it first.

"Big brother, let them strike first, will you be in any danger? If it doesn't work, how about the brother transfer a group to Beijing to press the big brother? ”

Lao Yuan sneered: "No! Those guys are just jumping clowns, you put all your thoughts on Liaodong for me. That's the Tiger all the time! Yang also cooperated with the Germans to build an arsenal, and he was ahead of us in this regard. ”

There is an arsenal of its own. For a war is very important. Of course, Duan Qirui and Yuan Shikai knew this.

They also have their own arsenal, but both in terms of size and volume. There is no way to compare with the Northeast, and even the production of bullets cannot meet the requirements of the war.

Lao Yuan asked Cao Kun to go to Wuhan. It was also because he fell in love with the Hanyang Arsenal. It's just that the Hanyang Arsenal is too far away from Beijing, and Cao Kun hasn't completely done it yet, although Cao Sanye sent a telegram yesterday saying that the matter is about to be done, but this is going to be done that day, and no one can give an accurate timetable.

Yuan Shikai was afraid of Yang fighting ghosts for a reason, although his Beiyang Army was known as the most elite unit of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was an elite of training, and it had not fought a vicious battle so far. The Volunteers are different, this is a group of outlaws who rushed down from the mountains of the Wheel under the fire of the Russians and the Japanese! After the baptism of the Russo-Japanese War. These people are no longer bandits.

The generals of the Beiyang Army are basically from small stations, and the squad and platoon company commanders are relatives or friends of senior generals. But the volunteers are different, the generals of the volunteers, including Yang Xiaolin, all crawled out of the pile of dead, and their squad and platoon company commanders were promoted from among the soldiers who performed very well on the battlefield in battle.

Yuan Shikai is a person who understands military affairs, weapons are not as good as people, soldiers are not as good as people, what is there to fight with others? Just by virtue of the Beiyang soldiers? Those who don't know how to do it say, what is Yang beating ghosts? It's just that it's just in the northeast, and Lao Yuan can get the entire Central Plains at his fingertips. Isn't it a trivial matter to kill him?

These people don't know that Lao Yuan's biggest disadvantage is actually here! Now the entire Qing Dynasty is already in his pocket, but Lao Yuan is sure that once he overthrows the Manchu Qing. Those princes and grandsons of the Qing Dynasty would not count it like this. And Sun Wen, that persistent guy will definitely not give up his ideas and dreams.

Sun Wen was influential in the south, and the Manchus were deeply entrenched in the north. Yuan Shikai can't be like Yang Xiaolin in the Northeast. Kill all those who are masters at once, Beijing is not Fengtian. He's not a Yang ghost. If the Manchu Qing and Sun Wen had mistaken themselves, the huge Central Plains might not have been so peaceful.

So. Yuan Shikai wanted the Manchu Qing to make the first move. He needs a reason to justify the change of dynasty, he needs to be a bitch and set up a memorial arch, because he wants to appease those Manchu dragon sons and grandsons, so that their resistance can be smaller. If you give yourself a little time to appease the north, and then give yourself a little time so that he can settle Sun Wen, and really be able to achieve the huge Central Plains surnamed Yuan, then you will have the capital to fight with the volunteers.

But the signal from Yang Dagui in Jinzhou was so urgent, Lao Yuan knew that that guy wouldn't give him much time, he had to hurry, faster.

"Sun Wen, where are you now?"

Yuan Shikai came out coldly, and Mr. Li hurriedly received: "I heard that I went to Hong Kong and am in contact with the British government." It seems that England and France are a little interested in the revolution he is talking about. ”

Yuan Shikai pondered for a while, and finally said: "Ask Cao San how it is doing first, find Sun Wen when the time is right, and tell him that I am willing to talk to him." ”

After hearing this, Mr. Li said, "Yuan Gong is wise. ”

Yuan Shikai stood up from the sofa, his body was so fat that he was a little struggling. Duan Qirui hurriedly went up to help. After getting up, Yuan Shikai let out a sigh: "Let's just say it, Zhiquan will keep an eye on Jinzhou for me, and let Zhenchun talk to Yang Fight ghosts in the northeast, whether you can fight or not is the most haode." I also contacted Sun Wen, and when Mr. went to meet him, he said that as long as Sun Wen cooperated with us, the system could be republican. ”

zuihou, Yuan Shikai suddenly said: "Send a telegram to Cao Kun, let him move quickly!" ”

When Yang Xiaolin transferred the Liaoxi detachment to Jinzhou, this obvious action conveyed the signal of war. But Lao Yuan still felt that he had a glimmer of hope to avoid a battle with the volunteers, which was just a glimmer of hope.

For no other reason, it was because of the "Northeast People's Autonomous Committee" established after Yang Xiaolin got half of the Northeast.

In fact, this is just a title, and everyone knows that it is the current government of the Northeast. But this name made Yuan Shikai see the possibility of avoiding a battle with the volunteers. The Autonomous Committee, Yang Da Ghost Weishenme is not like Sun Wen said, simply hang the sign of a new country? For example, the Republic of China mentioned in Sun Wenxin?

Lao Yuan admired Yang Dagui at this point, he knew that even if that guy was just a bandit, he was definitely a bandit with very strong nationalist sentiments!

The Northeast People's Autonomy Committee, that is to say, now the Northeast is not under the control of the Manchus, and the people there are autonomous, but autonomy and independence are two different things, once a change occurs in China and the Manchus are overthrown, the Northeast is still Chinese.

The future Chinese government will not need to discuss any territorial issues with Yang Dagui, nor will it need to discuss any reunification issues, because the Northeast has never been divided. The guy who divides the territory will not do it, Old Yuan thought, if his pace can be faster than Yang Fighting Ghost, just like Mr. Li said at the beginning, when Yang Fighting Ghost stabilized the northeast before he integrated the whole of China's liliang, he was recognized by all Chinese, maybe as long as he was appeased, that guy would not pounce.

There was little hope, but he had to try. Be sure to get ahead of Yang Fighting Ghosts! It was a challenge for him. It doesn't matter, Lao Yuan likes to do those challenging things. If there is really no Yang fighting ghosts, and there is no Sun Wen, then it seems a little too boring to face the Manchu Qing Dynasty at your fingertips. (To be continued......)

PS: Daoqian Xin: I'm sorry brothers, I did have something to do last year, so I had to stop. Later, I wanted to write again, but I couldn't find the feeling. I was going to write another book, but I just wrote the beginning, and the book haunted my mind like a nightmare. I always feel that if I don't finish it, it will be as unhappy as if I am stuck in my throat. So, I decided to finish writing it. After such a long break, don't say ask the brothers for tickets, I just want to ask the editor for a recommendation, and I feel embarrassed to speak. So, without being verbose, write it after it, that is, write it for the sake of writing it. I'm not trying to prove anything, I'm just trying to give myself an account. I can't express my gratitude to my brother who reads the book, and I hope that when I finish writing it, the next book will begin, and you will believe again that I am a person who does not know how to be a eunuch. That's all I can't say thank you for.
