Chapter Eighty-Eight: Departure
Returning to the south, Lu Heng immediately promoted Li Jinglin, Han Muxia and Liu Yunqiao and others brought from Tianjin, and promoted Yang Kenan and other old officers who followed him to a level, and then convened the first military meeting of the Shu army to command the whole army, and decided to move troops to Tang Jiyao in Yunnan Province.
The battle of Sichuan and Yunnan was about to break out, Lu Heng took Zhang Muzhi as the commander of the three armies, Zhang Yi and Li Weiru as deputy commanders, and ordered 100,000 troops to enter Kunming.
Tang Jiyao was in the rebellion of Gu Pinzhen, the commander of his first army, and his internal instability was like a thunderbolt in the sky when he heard the news, and he regretted the assassination of Lu Heng in his heart, and he hurriedly asked Sun in Guangdong for help, hoping that he could be an intermediary to make peace with Lu Heng.
Although Sun was still angry at Tang Jiyao's compromise with the northern warlords and the reorganization of the Guangdong military government, he still promised him to go to the south in person to meet with Lu Heng.
When Sun arrived at the CD, Lu Heng was busy with three things.
First, to build a military academy, and strongly invite Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaozhun to serve as principals; second, to build the Shudi branch of the Chinese Guoshu Museum, and invite Gong Baotian and Shang Yunxiang to serve as the director; Third, we will discuss with the German ambassador the matter of further expanding the introduction of the production line of the arsenal.
As for the army attacking Yunnan, under Lu Heng's conscious decentralization, it was already under the complete command of Zhang Muzhi.
Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lu Heng intends to hand over the military power to his two Zhang and Yi Li, with Zhang Muzhi as the leader. And he himself seems to be busy with people's livelihood matters.
Many people don't understand Lu Heng's move very much, in the troubled times, who doesn't firmly grasp the military power in their own hands? Lu Heng obviously has a great prestige in the southern country, and his subordinates Zhang Yili are also very loyal to him, why would he do such a self-defeating martial arts thing?
There are even warlords who scoff at this, threatening that Lu Heng will die sooner or later at the hands of two Zhang and one Li.
This is an obvious provocation, with sinister intentions.
Zhang Muzhi and the other three even sent a special report back to explain the matter to Lu Heng, and repeatedly expressed their loyalty. Lu Heng only replied to them with four words: "State affairs are important." ”
The three of them savored it carefully, and they didn't understand what Lu Heng meant, but the only thing that was certain was that Lu Heng was very relieved of them.
Zhang Muzhi and the three of them actually didn't understand how Lu Heng's mysterious trust came about, after all, the three of them were not very comfortable with themselves......
Of course, none of them wanted to set up another mountain at this time, or betray Lu Heng, after all, except for Li Weiru, Lu Heng had the grace of knowing each other.
But in the future, as the status continues to rise, many things will be involuntarily.
After Sun saw Lu Heng, he also faintly expressed his concern about Lu Heng's decentralization. But after the two talked all night, Sun never mentioned Lu Heng's attack on Yunnan, but looked at Lu Heng's eyes again, which was already full of complexity and gratitude.
Sun stayed in CD for half a month, during which he replaced Lu Heng and took over the preparation of the military academy, negotiations with the Germans and other government affairs, in addition, he also promoted local officials in batches and introduced Guangdong officials to Shu as officials.
Lu Heng not only strongly supported Sun's outrageous move, but also sent the Military Commission Investigation and Statistics Bureau led by Liu Yunqiao and Han Muxia to escort Sun.
Lu Heng's move is even more incomprehensible.
Half a month later, Tang Jiyao was defeated and had to be forced to go to the field with electricity and was expelled from Yunnan. Zhang Muzhi took Li Jinglin, who had made new contributions in this battle, as the governor of Yunnan Province to guard Yunnan, and then he couldn't wait to lead the army back to CD.
He really wanted to know what Lu Heng thought about his recent inexplicable series of actions!
After Zhang Muzhi and the others had a secret conversation with Lu Heng, they fell silent.
Soon after, Sun Yiyi visited the three generals, especially Zhang Muzhi for a long time.
With Sun's financial resources and prestige, the introduction of the Germans' military industry was quickly negotiated, and Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaozhun also came to the CD and promised to be the first principal of the military academy.
During this time, Lu Heng has been soaking in Gong Baotian's side, exchanging martial arts with him, and competing with him. Shang Yunxiang, who has been busy preparing for the martial arts school, sometimes sneaks away from his busy time to join hands with Lu Heng.
Lu Heng's foundation of internal boxing is becoming more and more solid, although it has not yet become a strength, but what is lacking is only qi and blood. Once the qi and blood were enough to fill the five internal organs and spread all over the four ends, that was when Lu Heng turned the strength of his whole body into one.
Regarding all kinds of things in the outside world, Lu Heng has never asked again.
It is worth mentioning that Ma Bond has been around Lu Heng these days and has never left.
Forty days later, five days before Lu Heng was about to leave, the military school was officially established, and Lu Heng, as the initiator and founder of the school, served as the lifelong honorary principal of the military school, and attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The selection of the school motto is quite interesting.
After Lu Heng arrived, he completely shook his hands and took charge of the shopkeeper, so he didn't participate in the matter of choosing the school motto at all.
However, Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaozhun studied in Japan with Cai Yi, known as the "Three Masters of China", as Cai Yi's confidants, Zhang Muzhi is naturally very familiar with these two and often comes to visit.
Once inadvertently, Zhang Muzhi said the telegram that Lu Heng had sent to the three generals before, hoping that the two elders could solve his doubts. Unexpectedly, after asking the reason, Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaozhun were in awe and admired Lu Heng's move.
"Lu Dashuai, he is really a national soldier!" Jiang Baili commented with emotion on his face, "Muzhi, Muzhi, the handsome treat you, and your kindness is like a mountain!" ”
Zhang Muzhi nodded with deep feelings, and sighed: "How can I be so virtuous, can I be so favored by the handsome?" Three lives are lucky, three lives are lucky! ”
Zhang Xiaozhun sighed: "State affairs are important...... With just these four words, you can know what the reason for Lu Dashuai's recent actions is. Handsome and open-minded, my generation can only look up. ”
Jiang Baili said thoughtfully: "State affairs are important, is this the purpose of everything Lu Dashuai did?" Since we have been entrusted with this, we should learn from this. ”
As a result, these four words became the motto of the military academy.
Three days later, Lu Heng sent a telegram to the whole country, announcing his resignation from all positions and appointing Zhang Muzhi as the commander-in-chief of the Shu army to inherit everything from him.
The world is in an uproar!
But only half a day later, Sun sent a telegram to the whole country, sprinkled 3,000 words, and spoke highly of the merits of Lu Haodong and Lu Heng's father and son.
Sun appointed Lu Heng as honorary vice president of the Republic of China, and at the same time, recognized the status of his successor, Zhang Muzhi.
Zhang Muzhi immediately announced his allegiance to the government of the Republic of China and joined the country.
For a time, there were all kinds of media at home and abroad saying anything, some people had conspiracy theories, saying that Zhang Muzhi and Sun forced Lu Heng to go into the wilderness, and some people said conclusively that Lu Dashuai had mastered martial arts, and he would soar in the near future, away from the red dust.
Of course, the most recognized statement is that Lu Heng has occupied the two provinces of Shu and Yunnan and has become the largest warlord in China, but he himself is very dissatisfied with the situation of warlords in the country, so he took the lead in setting an example and returning the military and government to the central government.
And the words "national affairs first" are the best proof.
Five days later.
Accompanied by Ma Bangde, Lu Heng climbed the Xiling Snow Mountain and looked at the mountains and rivers of the southern country.
"Great rivers and mountains...... Ma Bond sighed with emotion, "Big brother, looking back on this experience, I still feel like a dream." It's worth it to meet a big brother in this life! ”
"Less sensational!" Lu Heng sneered, "Old Ma, you have persuaded me for so many days, and I have been electrified all over the country, why haven't you given up yet?" ”
Ma Bond sighed, and said with pain on his face: "It's a good situation, just let you be ruined!" Originally, I wanted to follow you as a vice president. Gotcha, it's all gone! Big brother, can I scold you? Just one sentence. ”
Lu Heng smiled and said: "Scold, I don't think you will scold this sentence, you can remember it for a lifetime." ”
"If I scold, I will remember it for the rest of my life!" Ma Bond glared at Lu Heng for a long time, and suddenly said dejectedly: "Forget it, in fact, I am also content, but I really feel worthless for my eldest brother." ”
"So you also follow my example, resign from all positions, and retire bravely?" Lu Heng asked with a smile.
Ma Bond smiled and said, "I'm not stupid, I can leave now, and I can still have a good reputation." If I continue to do it, sooner or later I will be the first greedy in the Republic of China, and I will be stinking for 10,000 years! ”
"Poof!"
Behind the two, Ma Feng laughed.
Ma Bond ran over and scolded: "And a smile? What the hell, let you go buy weapons, and you ran away with the money of the handsome? Why don't you go to the northeast and let Zhang Zuolin tie you back to the big handsome, shame! How can I have a nephew like you? Don't have a smile yet? ”
Ma Feng shouted while hiding: "Uncle! Uncle! Isn't this a page? Besides, I was also hunted down to the Northeast! It's just that it takes money to run away...... Ok, good, good! I don't say! But the handsome man has already beaten me as punishment! Look, it's been a week, and my face is still swollen......"
Ma Bond's face softened slightly when he heard this, and he glared at him fiercely.
But I remembered Lu Heng's beating of Ma Feng......
Ma Bond couldn't help but shudder, it was really hard......
Lu Heng kept smiling at this scene, until the two of them quieted down, and then he said, "Old Ma, what are your plans next?" ”
"Of course it's with the big brother." Ma Bond said without thinking.
"Tell the truth!"
Ma Bangde still had to defend himself, but looking at Lu Heng's smiling eyes, he suddenly laughed dryly and said: "Actually, I still yearn for the place in the West that you said about my eldest brother, and I plan to take Ma Feng to the West to break through." ”
"Don't want to come with me?" Lu Heng asked with a smile.
Ma Bond smiled: "It's good to follow the eldest brother, but it's a little - it's not easy." ”
Not easy......
Lu Heng suddenly remembered that in the original plot of Let the Bullets Fly, Chen Zhi also said these three words to Zhang Muzhi when he was about to leave at the end.
He was suddenly a little distracted, Zhang Muzhi, Chen Shi, Cao Shaoxuan, Yang Kenan, Ip Man......
Faces passed through his mind.
Will he be like Zhang Muzhi and end up in vain?
But this thought was only fleeting, and feeling the full strength of his body, he immediately settled down.
Even if everything is illusory, this strength is real.
This martial art, no one can calculate, and you can't take it away.
Suddenly, Lu Heng was shocked, and his qi and blood rushed out like wolf smoke!
He suddenly felt that he knew every pore of his body and controlled it at will!
Five organs, qi and blood, bones, blood vessels, skin, hair......
Every part of his body, he can control as he wants!
The wind on the top of the mountain is hunting, but when he arrives at Lu Heng at this moment, he can't even lift his clothes!
Energize!
This is the transformation energy, flies and insects cannot fall, and the feathers do not stick to the body!
"Big brother (big handsome)!" Uncle and nephew Ma Bond watched this scene in amazement.
"Hahaha!" Lu Heng suddenly laughed happily, he suddenly jumped down from the top of the peak like a big bird!
"Big brother (big handsome)!" Ma Bond and the others shouted in horror and hurriedly chased to the edge of the cliff, but saw Lu Hengda smiling and stepping into a whirlpool.
Since then, Lu Heng has become a legend.
