The announcement of the surrender of the white demon made the Sichuan military government dumbfounded, the Xuzhou and Luzhou capitals fell, and the door for the Yunnan-Guizhou coalition army to attack Chengdu was opened. This is not the most unlucky, in order to defend these two provinces, they also cobbled together 12,000 troops to send over, and now these more than 10,000 troops have all become prisoners.

There are only more than 20,000 people under the command of Yin Changheng and Luo Lun, and 12,000 people are half of their troops, what else do they use to defend Chengdu? The most depressed is Yin Changheng, who is a person introduced by Sun Chuanfang and Li Liejun, Jiangxi Governor Li Liejun secretly said that he would support him, and the Guangxi military government where Sun Chuanfang worked has always been in contact with him, why did the people they introduced suddenly surrender?

Chen Hao has already started to lay out, Li Liejun and Sun Chuanfang have been paralyzing Yin Changheng, making Yin Changheng suffer a big loss. The Yunnan-Guizhou coalition army had a great advantage after mastering the two prefectures of Luzhou and Xuzhou, and it was very likely that the Sichuan military government would be defeated in one go, but at this moment there was an accident.

It was not only the Sichuan military government that was unlucky, but also the Shu military government in Chongqing. The Shu military government decided to march westward and organized its subordinate army into three detachments, with Dan Maoxin as chief of staff and head of the middle road detachment, commander-in-chief Lin Shaoquan as the head of the north road detachment, and first column leader Xiang Shouyin as the head of the south road detachment.

This was originally a temporary arrangement made out of the needs of the Western Expedition, but Lin Shaoquan believed that this was the summer time to exclude him and cancel him as commander-in-chief.

Lin Shaoquan used the topic to tear up the letter of appointment, slash the defense, and rushed into the Governor's Mansion with a gun to scold Zhang Peijue and Xia Zhishi.

There was a problem within the Shu military government, and Sichuan player Jin Ma Chao took the opportunity to suggest that the Shu military government negotiate with the Sichuan military government, seizing the opportunity to trigger the mission. Jin Ma Chao said that the Yunnan-Guizhou coalition army was ambitious, and if it conquered Chengdu, he was afraid that the Shu military government would not be able to grasp power.

Jin Ma Chao persuaded Zhang Peijue and others to volunteer to act as a bridge between the two military governments. Go to Chengdu to ask to see Yin Changheng. Historically, the two military governments in Sichuan had indeed merged, so Jin Ma Chao was very confident in doing this task, and as he expected, Yin Changheng, who had lost 12,000 men in the south, was very interested in the merger proposal.

Jin Ma Chao has been developing in Chongqing, he has established four bases, and Huo Qubing tried to get involved in eastern Sichuan because he calculated it. The Yunnan-Guizhou coalition forces attacked Sichuan. The southern Sichuan town made the white demon surrender, and of course he knew what was going on. He regarded Chen Baxian as his biggest enemy, and knew that if Chen Baxian was allowed to occupy Chengdu, his own development would be greatly affected.

Therefore, Jinma Chao tried in every possible way to facilitate the merger of the two military governments, after which the military government could demand that the Yunnan-Guizhou army withdraw from Sichuan. Under his hard lobbying, Yin Changheng, Luo Lun, Deng Xiaoke, and others put forward unification conditions to the Chongqing Shu Military Government: Chengdu should be the seat of the Sichuan Military Government, Chongqing would set up an important military town, and the former governors of Chengdu and Chongqing would be appointed as the chief and deputy governors of the merged Sichuan Military Government. The former two vice-governors were appointed as the envoy or privy councillor of Chongqing and the president of the military senate respectively.

Chongqing also put forward its own demands: Chengdu will remain the provincial capital, Chongqing will be the residence of the Sichuan governor, Zhang Peijue, the governor of the Shu Military Government, will be the governor of Sichuan, Yin Changheng, the governor of the Sichuan Military Government, and Xia Shishi, the deputy governor of the Shu Military Government, will be the deputy governor, and Luo Lun, the deputy governor of the Sichuan Military Government, will be the privy councillor or general adviser.

The army of the Shu military government began to stagnate, Chen Hao keenly felt that something was wrong, and soon Wang Yaqiao inquired about the negotiations between the two military governments. Historically, after the Yunnan-Guizhou army entered Sichuan, the Guizhou army was strictly disciplined. Sichuan people have a high evaluation; The military discipline of the Yunnan army was corrupt and they committed misconduct in Sichuan. There were many conflicts with the Baolu Comrade Army, so the Chengdu and Chongqing military governments discussed a merger.

In order to avoid this situation, Chen Hao had already ordered Xu Xilin and Liu Zixuan to restrain the troops, and they must do nothing in the autumn, but they didn't expect that because the player's mission was successful, the Chongqing military government would still be merged.

The Shu military junta did not want to use force anymore, and the Yunnan-Guizhou troops lost their reason to march into Chengdu. So it made it very difficult for him. What Chen Hao can do now is to delay the merger of the Chengdu and Chongqing military governments as much as possible, and do the opposite task of Jinma Chao, and he handed over this matter to the white demon.

The level of the white demon has reached level 50, and the diplomatic attribute is as high as 92 points, and the chance of winning the reverse mission with Jinma Chao is very high.

Historically, the military governments of Chengdu and Chongqing were successfully merged. Mainly because the Chongqing Shu Military Government compromised and took the initiative to make Yin Changheng the governor. The Confederacy aims to save the country, to practice a republic, and to despise the struggle for power.

The leaders of the Shu Military Government in Chongqing have repeatedly affirmed that the Chongqing party members "have absolutely no right to think" in handling affairs, and this is in line with the idea of Sun Yat-sen and others who "retired after success"; they did not understand the importance of grasping the revolutionary power and were very politically naïve. After Sun Yat-sen compromised with Yuan Shikai, the Chongqing revolutionaries believed that Chongqing, Chengdu and the whole province had become independent, that Zhao Erfeng had taken the lead, expelled the Tartars, and established a republic, and that the revolutionary goal of establishing a republic had been achieved, and they hoped to end the war as soon as possible and unify the military and government.

In order for the Shu military government to dispel the idea of compromise, it is necessary to do their ideological work and make them understand that compromise is to give away the fruits of the revolution. This kind of purely lip service task is very difficult, even if it is the diplomatic attribute of the white demon 92, it is difficult to succeed, and he tried his best to make Zhang Peijue and the others dispel the idea of merging.

Fortunately, he delayed for some time, and the military governments of Chengdu and Chongqing merged on February 2, but the game dragged on until March, and the two sides were still negotiating.

On February 15, 1912, the Nanjing Senate formally elected Yuan Shikai as the provisional president, and changed the presidential system to the cabinet system according to the provisional constitution of the Republic of China. Yuan Shikai refused to go to Nanjing, insisted on being inaugurated as the president of the Republic of China in Beijing on March 10, and announced the appointment of Chen Baxian, the governor of Guangxi, as the governor of the southwest and minister of the navy, to oversee the affairs of the four southwestern provinces and the navy.

Yuan Shikai was reciprocating his favor, and when he was negotiating with the revolutionary party, Guangxi, Yunnan, and Guizhou provinces kept telegraphing to express their support for him. After Chen Hao became the governor of the southwest, Liu Zixuan, the governor of Yunnan, and Xu Xilin, the governor of Guizhou, immediately telegraphed to support, saying that the Yunnan and Guizhou military governments were willing to obey the dispatch of Lord Chen.

The two military governments of Chengdu and Chongqing, which were negotiating, became embarrassed, and it stands to reason that Sichuan is also under the jurisdiction of the Governor of the Southwest. Chen Baxian's Governor of the Southwest was appointed by the President, and after the merger, the Governor of the Military Government was appointed by the Governor, and he could not be avoided.

The military governments of Chengdu and Chongqing were powerful local factions with the army in their hands, and it was impossible for Chen Baxian to ignore them even if he was the governor of the southwest. Lord Chen personally rushed to Luzhou, Sichuan, and took the initiative to invite Yin Changheng, the governor of the Sichuan Military Government, and Zhang Peijue, the governor of the Shu Military Government, to meet and discuss the merger of the military government.

When Zhang Peijue was about to rush to Luzhou, the player Jin Machao tried his best to persuade him, and said with tears in his eyes: "Dudu, I know Chen Baxian very well, he is ambitious and wants to control the whole of Sichuan. The governor went to Luzhou for fear that he would be calculated by Chen Ba first, so remember that if he wants to reorganize the army, don't agree. ”

Zhang Peijue didn't take Jin Machao's reminder seriously, he arrived in Luzhou before Yin Changheng and visited Lord Chen as soon as possible. After the greetings between the two sides, Zhang Peijue said with some restraint: "The country has been reunified, but there have always been two military governments in Sichuan, and they have been longing for reunification for a long time. When the adults came to Sichuan this time, there was great hope for peaceful reunification, and they could not help but rejoice in their humble duties. ”

Chen Hao smiled slightly and said: "Brother Zhang is not polite, they are all revolutionary comrades, you and I can be commensurate with each other, I don't know what Brother Zhang thinks about the merger of Chengdu and Chongqing?" ”

Zhang Peijue hesitated: "As long as it can be peacefully reunified, I will not be attached to the position of power, but the Chengdu Military Government has the participation of the Elder Brotherhood, and I am not at ease if I am the governor over there." ”

Chen Hao bowed slightly and said: "I think the same as Brother Zhang, the revolutionary power must not be handed over to Yin Changheng and others, and the merger should be dominated by the Shu Military Government, which Brother Zhang can rest assured." However, since we want to be peacefully reunified, the army also needs to be reorganized, and I am ready to reintegrate the Guizhou army, the Yunnan army, and the Sichuan army. ”

Zhang Peijue nodded and said, "As long as Yin Changheng and Luo Lun are not allowed to serve as the governors of Sichuan, I am willing to obey the orders of my lord." ”

Chen Hao sent Zhang Peijue away and asked Zhang Peijue to go back and convey his opinion to the Shu military government, which was very excited when it heard that it was mainly itself after the merger. Soon the Shu military government sent troops to Luzhou, and Chen Hao instructed Cai Ye to take over the troops and send officers from the second division to control the troops.

Two days later, Yin Changheng also rushed to Luzhou, Chen Hao was more polite to Yin Changheng, and he said straight to the point: "Brother Yin, I have always been a supporter of the president, and I am not of the same mind as the revolutionary party." The junta must be merged, and I have persuaded the Shu junta to accept you as the governor of the merged junta. ”

Yin Changheng said with a look of surprise: "Thank you, Lord Governor!" ”

Chen Hao waved his hand and said: "Brother Yin doesn't have to be polite, Chongqing is not without conditions, they demand that all the army be reorganized. At present, the army of the Shu military government has been driven to Luzhou, and I hope that Brother Yin will focus on the overall situation and transfer the troops to Luzhou for reorganization. ”

Yin Changheng's greatest hope was to serve as the governor of the merged military government, and he was promised by Lord Chen to make him the governor, and after Luo Lun became the deputy governor, he readily agreed to the conditions. Five days later, all the troops from Chengdu arrived in Luzhou, and Chen Hao ordered Liu Zixuan to take over the troops and completely control the Sichuan army.

The military governments of Chengdu and Chongqing were officially merged, and at the merger meeting, the top leaders of Sichuan and Chongqing were full of expectations, and Yin Changheng thought that he was about to become the governor, and Chongqing received a promise from Lord Chen that they would be the main ones. After his enthusiastic speech, Lord Chen said loudly: "Sichuan has ushered in the peace that has not been seen for a long time, and after consulting the president, this governor thinks that it is necessary to send a person of outstanding prestige to serve as the governor. ”

Chen Hao paused and said: "Lord Zhao Erfeng has outstanding prestige in Sichuan, and the president was very happy to learn that Lord Zhao was alive, and decided to appoint Zhao Erfeng as the governor of Sichuan, and everyone applauded and welcomed. ”.
