Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Single Knife Meeting

The procession gathered from all the streets and alleys, and the crowds were overwhelming, and when they were all gathered, they rushed towards the governor's mansion. Then the whole of Mukden was shaken, and in addition to the main industrial and commercial people, many people also joined in the excitement, making the procession unprecedentedly large.

These ordinary people are also full of hatred for Duan Zhigui, and the problem of giving tickets has caused them to suffer heavy losses, and now that someone is taking the lead, the people are also willing to vent.

When the procession arrived outside the Governor's Mansion, Duan Zhigui's guards had already been alarmed, and they piled sandbags on the left and right sides of the gate of the intersection mansion, and behind the sandbags, there were a large number of guards with loaded guns and ammunition, waiting for the procession to block the procession.

As soon as the marching people saw that they could no longer move forward, they simply stopped and shouted slogans.

"Release me immediately, and give me back my blood and sweat!"

Thousands of people chanted together, the sound was terrifying, and the guards were also very nervous, don't look at them holding weapons, but the difference in numbers between the two sides is too big, if there is really anything that goes wrong, I am afraid that it will be a catastrophe.

Duan Zhigui also heard it clearly in the mansion, this highness could be ruthless when he made money, but when it was really time for the big event, he had no idea.

He kept spinning around on the ground, like a donkey pulling a mill, but at this time, Lu Lin led his subordinates to rush outside the Governor's Mansion, and Lu Lin brought a total of more than 300 soldiers, as well as more than 100 policemen.

Their menacing appearance finally gave those guards a sigh of relief, and Lu Lin commanded his subordinates, forming a strong human wall to separate the procession.

He rode a tall horse, holding a horsewhip in his hand, and came to the parade proudly, and said contemptuously: "You mud-legged people are listening, where to roll, if you dare to go wild, Lao Tzu knows you, but the horsewhip doesn't know you!" ”

Saying that, Lu Lin threw a crisp whip flower, and everyone who was nearby felt a shock in their ears.

"Sir, we are here to ask to see General Duan, we want to petition him, and please pass it on!" Qiao Ruixuan spoke on behalf of everyone. Immediately, many people echoed him, shouting one after another, asking to see Duan Zhigui in person.

Lu Lin glared at the triangular eyes, and pointed at everyone with the horsewhip in his hand: "What are you all like, the general is also what you want to see, get back to me as soon as possible, don't feel uncomfortable!" ”

As soon as Qiao Ruixuan saw Lu Lin blocking him, he took out a book of ten thousand words from his arms, which had the handprints of Fengtian merchants on it. He held his hands up and sent it to Lu Lin.

"Sir, since you don't let us see the general, then please give this petition to the general, this is the voice of tens of thousands of people in Fengtian, please do it!"

Lu Lin snorted contemptuously: "Boy, don't you understand people's words, the general has a lot of opportunities, and he doesn't have time to look at bullshit stuff, how old is public opinion?" Tell you, it's worthless, get out of here! ”

"This is the Republic of China, we must respect the will of the people, even the president is no exception!"

Seeing that Lu Lin was arrogant and domineering, the people of Fengtian were also completely enraged, and anger appeared in their eyes, even in the Manchu Dynasty, they would not disdain the Book of the People, this Zhigui was too deceitful.

"The Republic of China? What is the Republic of China? President Yuan Da is the Republic of China! ”

As he spoke, Lu Lin waved the horsewhip in his hand, and suddenly knocked the book of ten thousand words to the ground, and it happened to fall into the muddy ditch on the side.

Lu Lin didn't care at all, and continued: "The president has become the emperor, and the world is the president's, you elm brains, give me ...... honesty."

Lu Lin was about to speak, but with a snap, an object hit his left eye, slimy, and a stinky liquid flowed down, it was a stinky chicken. I don't know who threw it out in a hurry, and it just hit Lu Lin's eyes.

The guy who was arrogant a second ago changed his appearance in an instant, and everyone present couldn't help but laugh, Lu Lin was also completely enraged, he urged the horse forward, and when he raised the horsewhip, he pulled it down according to the people in front of him.

After this whip, two or three ordinary people were beaten to the point that their skin was broken, so it was not miserable, Lu Lin sent it wildly, and waved the horse whip one after another, and injured more than a dozen in an instant.

This completely angered the people who marched, and several young and strong people rushed to the front, and while Lu Lin was wielding the whip, he grabbed the whip, and then another person rushed up, and everyone worked hard together, and pulled Lu Lin off the war horse at once.

At this moment, Lu Lin fell a dog and chewed, and the surrounding people hugged him and beat this domineering guy. Lu Lin also brought a lot of people over, and those soldiers who were loaded with guns didn't dare to shoot casually, after all, they might accidentally injure Lu Lin. The more than 100 policemen were duty-bound, they picked up their batons and rushed up, trying to rescue Lu Lin.

The two sides immediately fought, and in front of the procession there were many young men with strong skills, who grabbed sticks, bricks, and other objects and fought with the police. These policemen didn't expect the other party to be so powerful, and many people were beaten to the point where their parents screamed.

The front gate of the governor's palace was simply a pot of porridge, and the enthusiasm of the people marching was completely aroused, and they kept rushing forward, and the battle became more and more fierce.

At this time, Lu Lin, who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, finally climbed out of the crowd, this guy was bruised and purple all over his body, and his two eyes were swollen like peaches.

Lu Lin was already mad, he ran to the gate of the mansion frantically, and immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot. But he hasn't lost his mind yet, after all, there are still hundreds of policemen and marchers entangled together, and he can't even kill his own people.

Therefore, they fired a warning shot first, and suddenly there was a loud gunfire in front of the house, and the merchants who were marching were also frightened, and when they were stunned, the policemen ran out with a roll, and a few unlucky people were simply dragged out by their companions.

As soon as Lu Lin saw that his people had run out, he hurriedly ordered to point his guns at the common people, and he was about to shoot! At this critical juncture, suddenly gunshots rang out behind the procession, and Lu Lin was taken aback.

At this time, hundreds of soldiers of the Feng army rushed in from outside, these soldiers wore crooked hats, disheveled appearances, and guns in their hands, rushed to the governor's mansion, and confronted Lu Lin's men.

"What do you want to do, this is the Governor's Mansion, do you want to rebel?" Lu Lin asked loudly.

These soldiers don't want the common people, they are not afraid at all, and a powerful officer in his thirties led by him asked loudly: "Lao Tzu just wants to rebel, the surname Duan smashed our rice bowls, we can't drink the northwest wind, now come to Duan Zhigui, as long as he agrees to support us, we can say anything, otherwise don't think you have guns, and Lao Tzu's hands are not decorations!" ”

The two groups of soldiers confronted each other, and immediately the pressure of the marching crowd disappeared, and they hurriedly took the wounded people away, and gradually retreated to the back.

These soldiers didn't appear casually, they were all artillery battalions of the Independent Brigade, and the officer who spoke was Yang Yuting, it can be said that these are just a play directed by Lao Zhang and Zhang Tinglan.

Although Zhang Zuolin nominally ran to become a parade soldier, his eyes had long been fixed on the city. Duan Zhigui sent someone to detain Liu Shucheng and others, and then sealed the Fengtian Chamber of Commerce, Lao Zhang was very clear about these circumstances, and he immediately found Zhang Tinglan over.

"Tinglan, these things are caused by you, and you can come up with a countermeasure!"

"Seventh Master, I think this time we must correct our position, we can neither attack the people of Fengtian in order to curry favor with Yuan Shikai, nor can we directly confront Duan Zhigui in order to win public opinion, what we want to do is to mediate!"

Lao Zhang admires Zhang Tinglan most about being sober-minded, what he said is right in Zhang Zuolin's arms, offending the people, is shaking his foundation, Zhang Zuolin will not be so stupid.

But to provoke Duan Zhigui, as well as Yuan Shikai behind him, is also a complete fool, after all, Lao Yuan holds the name of righteousness, if Lao Yuan turns to support Feng Delin, Lao Zhang's idea of plotting Fengtian is really easy to run aground, and mediation is the best way.

"Seventh Master, I suggest that you immediately send a telegram to Yang Shiqi, telling in detail about the situation in Fengtian, Yang Shiqi and Duan Zhigui are competing for favor with each other, and he will definitely sue in front of Lao Yuan. In addition, the more important thing is that we must control the situation in Fengtian, avoid the flood of public opinion, and suppress Duan Zhigui's momentum. ”

When Zhang Tinglan said this, he whispered a few words to Lao Zhang, Zhang Zuolin smiled when he heard it, nodded again and again, he quickly arranged for Yuan Jinkai to send a telegram, and he mobilized the troops of the 27th Division and made all preparations.

Zhang Tinglan was not idle, he transferred 300 capable personnel from the armed police corps, and asked them to disguise themselves as ordinary people and mix in the procession, and when necessary, they had to bear the responsibility of protecting the people, and it was these people who beat Lu Lin and the police to a fat beating.

In addition, Yang Yuting was invited over and discussed with him, so that Yang Yuting commanded the soldiers of the artillery battalion, and once there was a possibility of bloodshed, they would rush out to stop the bloodshed.

Although the death and injury in the conflict would make things bigger and make Duan Zhigui even more disadvantageous, Zhang Tinglan's conscience did not allow him to do so. He is the driving force behind the scenes, but he doesn't want to be a real executioner, after all, he is not a decisive hero.

It is precisely because of these preparations that today's parade will lead to this situation, and the two groups of soldiers are facing each other with real swords and guns.

At this time, not far away, Zhang Zuolin rushed in with some guards, and as soon as he saw those soldiers in the Feng army, Lao Zhang's eyes suddenly widened.

"You bastards, what do you want to do, you dare to come to the Governor's Mansion to spread wild, Lao Tzu will kill you!"

When these soldiers saw Zhang Zuolin coming, they all showed frightened looks: "Division commander, we are also forced to be helpless, the surname Duan has smashed our jobs!" ”

"Master Zhang, these are all your soldiers, dare to come like this without your order? Don't pretend, you wait for the general to deal with you! ”

Lu Lin spoke sneeringly at this time, Lao Zhang's eyes widened, and his face showed a fierce light: "What are you, you also have the right to intervene, get out of the way for me, I'll go see the general now." ”

Saying that, Zhang Zuolin threw off the horse, walked alone, strutted forward, and walked to the door of the mansion.
