273. The sword was suddenly transmitted to the north of the thistle

When Cheng Ziyin, Zhang Huizan and others came to the headquarters, they saw a person being thrown on the ground indiscriminately, and he didn't know how many times he had been tied up with hemp rope. No pop-up window is updated quickly // Because his hands and feet are firmly tied, the man can't get up at all, he can only bow and roll on the ground, looking like a big silkworm chrysalis wriggling from a distance. He heard footsteps and stopped struggling for a moment.

In the story of Mr. Storyteller, it is always mentioned again and again that "two countries compete with each other, and they do not cut each other". Cheng Ziyin also did the same, and instructed the left and right: "Untie the rope and let him stand and reply!" ”

A moment later, the lobbyist was standing in front of everyone.

The reality obviously disappointed Cheng Ziyin, Zhang Huizan and others, and the people who came were not like Zhang Song, who was "born with a pointed forehead, a nose and teeth, a short body of less than five feet, and a speech like a bronze bell", nor like Zhuge Liang, who was "eight feet long, with a face like a crown of jade, wearing a scarf on his head, and wearing a crane, fluttering and having the general appearance of a fairy", but with a blue nose and swollen face, embarrassed, and his clothes were covered with mud and grass clippings, and he was torn in several places. However, after the young man got up, he did not grin his teeth or shout grievances, but simply straightened his clothes and dusted off the filth on his body at will. This move was a great sight to be reckoned with.

Cheng Ziyin sat on the Taishi's chair and asked majestically, "Who is you?" Where did it come from? What is the purpose here? ”

The young man was not impatient or impatient, and bowed to Cheng Ziyin and hugged his fists: "In Xia He Sui, the word Xufu, is now the twelfth assistant staff officer of the sixth town of the army." I don't know who it is? ”

Cheng Ziyin also did not hide it: "In the next Cheng Ziyin, the current commander-in-chief of the Shanxi Military Government's Eastern Expeditionary Army; This is Zhang Huizan, deputy commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. You haven't told us what you're doing here! ”

"If He is not mistaken, Commander Cheng used to be the deputy standard commander of the 88th bid of the 44th Mixed Association, and this Commander Zhang used to be the pipe band of the first battalion of the 88th bid, right? At present, the Shanxi New Army only has the 43rd Mixed Association of the Army and the 88th Standard of the 44th Mixed Association of the Army. The 43rd Association was still 80 miles away from Taiyuan before yesterday, and it was too late to rush to Niangzi Pass in one day and one night; Don't say they don't want to come, even if they do, they can't be in command. That's how it goes. Your army's strength in Niangzi Pass is less than one battalion, and more than one standard. I don't know if what he said is right? He then looked at him left and right.

Zhang Huizan sneered: "How many of us are there, don't you know if you let the horses come over and try it?" Don't waste your time and pretend to be a ghost here! ”

He Sui was stunned. He still said in the same way: "Even if your army is full of standards, because most of the soldiers are newly recruited students and have not been adequately trained, their combat effectiveness is still worrisome. On the other hand, the sixth town of our army has more than 10,000 troops, sufficient training, and excellent equipment. Compare the two. I wonder what the odds of your army will be? ”

Cheng Ziyin said angrily: "Noise! The Wuhan Volunteers numbered only a few thousand, and the rest were all students who had left school. Yuan Weiting took tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Beiyang, as well as naval ships to help, and fought in table tennis for more than ten days, didn't he still attack the Yangtze River? Naturally, we dare not compare with the Wuhan Revolutionary Party, but the steepness of Niangzi Pass is even greater than that of the Yangtze River. Cheng didn't say much to deceive the world, and only took a few thousand brothers to stay here. Although you let go of the attack, try to see today's well, whose world is it! ”

He didn't laugh angrily. He stroked his palms and said: "Commander Cheng is loyal and courageous, and he admires it!" Well, I don't want to be with you and delay time. Please ask Commander Cheng to go to the idle people and wait, He has something important to discuss. ”

Zhang Huizan and Cheng Ziyin glanced at each other and said disdainfully: "Here are all revolutionary comrades who are kind-hearted, and they can even entrust their lives, let alone others?" You don't have to hide what you want to say, you have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

He Sui said stubbornly: "Commander Cheng, Commander Zhang, what He said is indeed very important. Please also screen to idle people and so on! ”

Cheng Ziyin has practiced boxing and kicking since he was a child, and later joined the security team of Jingshi University, and his kung fu has not fallen, and ordinary three or five people can't get close at all. It is precisely because of his outstanding martial arts and his intelligence and honesty that he was able to serve as Sun Yuanqi's guard captain. He was escorted in before he was brought in. The whole body has been searched cleanly, there are no firearms, Cheng Ziyin is really not afraid of him turning the sky.

At that moment, Cheng Ziyin waved his hand around: "Let's all go out, let me and Commander Zhang have a good chat with this He brother to see what kind of earth-shattering event it is." ”

After everyone withdrew from the headquarters, Zhang Huizan touched the pickle on his waist intentionally or unintentionally, and asked, "Brother He can talk about it now, right?" ”

He Sui sat down on the chair, picked up the cold tea and drank a few sips before whispering: "Our Wu Tongzhi joined the Xingzhong Society in the early years when he was studying at the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, although he lost contact with the League for some reason after returning to China, the heart of the revolution has not changed. Now that the whole country is surging, the Wu system is also rising up, and I want to share great things with you! ”

Zhang Huizan accidentally buckled the tea bowl on the table, and he didn't bother to wipe the tea when it flowed on the table: "This, this is too unexpected, right?" ”

Looking at Cheng Ziyin's expression, it was obvious that disbelief accounted for the majority.

He Sui saw that they didn't believe it, and hurriedly said: "In the thirty-third year of Guangxu (1907), He joined the League by Fang Yunsong (Fang Shengtao), and you can find out if you ask the comrades of the League. ”

Zhang Huizan hesitated a little, and said to Cheng Ziyin in a low voice: "Brother Huchen, Fang Yunsong is my senior brother at the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and he is indeed a revolutionary party. As for the one in front of me, I can't be sure. Why don't you ask someone from the Alliance later? ”

Cheng Ziyin nodded slightly, and then said: "Brother He, I will find someone to verify your identity, but how can you ensure that Wu Suiqing (Wu Luzhen) Wu is a true revolutionary?" You also know that Niangzi closes the mouth of Taihang Shanjing, which is one of the few passages between Shanxi and Zhili. Once there is a loss, not only will the lives of thousands of our brothers be concerned, but Shanxi will also open the door widely, and the revolutionary situation in the world will rise and fall accordingly. Not the slightest careless! ”

He Sui patted his chest and said: "Commander Cheng, please rest assured, the loyalty and enthusiasm of the Wu Command for the revolution is true, and it is by no means unique to him, and the comrades of our alliance in the sixth town, Qu Shoudi, Wang Xiaozhen, Zhou Weizhen, Zhang Shiying, Liu Wenjin and others dare to guarantee with their lives!" ”

Zhang Huizan asked: "Brother He, as far as I know, the Sixth Town of the Army is an old team that Yuan Weiting has been operating and raising for many years, and it is full of Yuan's henchmen from top to bottom, and its predecessor is Duan Qirui, the pioneer who is now attacking the three towns of Wuhan. Commander Wu has just arrived in the army, how much influence can he have? ”

He Sui sighed when he heard this: "What Commander Zhang said is not bad! Many generals and colonels in the sixth town of the army did not know that there was a court or a revolution, and they only knew that they were loyal to Yuan Weiting. Last year, Zaitao, Liangbi and others wanted to use the Japanese non-commissioned officers to resist Yuan Weiting's influence in the six towns of Beiyang, but our Wu commander bribed Prince Qing Yixuan to be appointed as the commander of the sixth town in December. Although Wu Commander dismissed Zhou Fulin, the 12th Co-Commander, from his post on the grounds that he was 'addicted to cigarettes and acts like a thief,' the War Department did not agree to use our recommended candidate at all, but transferred Wu Hongchang, the commander of the 24th Standard Command, to act as his deputy.

"Now the minions of the Yuan clan in the sixth town regard the Wu system as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and they are constrained everywhere. The Qing court also suspected that Wu's system was a revolutionary party, and it was in a dilemma everywhere and tried to set it up, but it was only for fear of provoking an incident that it did not move him now. Although Wu Luzhen is still difficult to control the whole town, the situation is quite difficult. But there were quite a few revolutionary comrades in our sixth town, and most of the soldiers were sympathetic to the revolution. As long as a righteous uprising is followed by the killing of a number of evils, the vast majority of people will be able to remain neutral. In this way, great things can be accomplished. ”

Those who can inflict on their weaknesses are either sincere and sincere, or they are the ones who have a big plan. Cheng Ziyin pondered for a moment before asking, "What is the Wu Command going to do?" Take the lead in Shijiazhuang to raise righteousness, or do you defect in front of Niangzi Pass? ”

He Sui said: "Can you borrow a map?" ”

After receiving permission, He Sui made a comparison on the map of North China: "After the outbreak of the Wuchang Uprising, the Qing court announced the suspension of the Luanzhou Autumn Exercise and ordered all the participating troops to return to their original garrisons, but the 20th Town Zhang Jingyu (Zhang Shaozeng) and the 2nd Mixed Association Lan Jihao (Lan Tianwei) refused to withdraw to Fengtian for various reasons, and refused to go south to Wuhan. Just this morning, they suddenly sent a joint telegram, strongly demanding that the Qing court reorganize the imperial cabinet, convene a parliament, and implement constitutional government. At the same time, they also withheld large quantities of arms purchased by the Qing court from Europe that were transported from Siberia to the Hankow front via the Jingfeng Railway.

"Zhang Jingyu and our Wu are classmates of the same period of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and Lan Jihao is a junior of the lower level, and they have a close friendship, and they were called the 'Three Masters of Non-commissioned Officers' at that time. Therefore, the Qing court sent a telegram to Wu Tong this afternoon, ordering him to go to Luanzhou to preach and persuade him, in fact, he also wanted to transfer him out of the army. At this critical moment, our Wu commander decided to lead his troops to take action anyway.

"The meaning of Wu's control is that the north unites Zhang Jingyu and Lan Jihao to co-ordinate, and the west unites Yan Baichuan Governor, and the three families jointly send troops to meet Beijing, and the merit of recovery is at your fingertips. I don't know what you think? ”

Hearing that the Twentieth Town and the Second Mixed Association were holding a military admonition in Luanzhou, Cheng Ziyin and Zhang Huizan couldn't help but be overjoyed and smiled at each other.

After He Sui finished talking about Wu Luzhen's plan, Cheng Ziyin said: "The news of Wu's rebellion and Luanzhou's military admonition is too sudden, and we know how to deal with it for a while. Moreover, the situation is so serious, we must report it to Governor Yan Baichuan as soon as possible. Why don't you take a break here, and we will let you know as soon as we have a situation, how about it? ”

He Sui naturally knew that this information was too important and too urgent, and the Shanxi military government needed time to verify and digest it, so he nodded understandingly: "It's okay!" However, the stakes are high, and you must keep them strictly confidential. Moreover, after receiving the telegram from the Qing court, Wu Commander could not stay in Shijiazhuang for too long, and I hope you will give an answer before tomorrow morning! (To be continued.) )
