In the afternoon, when the chief of staff in charge of espionage work reported to Marshal Wu Peifu about the young marshal's public appearance in Qihe and the execution of Yin Chongzi, Wu Dashuai rolled his eyelids when he heard this, and asked if he had found out where Xiao Liuzi (referring to Zhang Xueliang) lived tonight?

The chief of staff stepped forward and replied respectfully: Back to the marshal, according to reliable information, Xiao Liuzi will live in Qihe County tonight, Guo Songling's headquarters is also there, the garrison of the county town only has more than 60 people in the guard of Guo Songling's headquarters, a battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 38th Brigade and more than 40 people in a guard brought by Xiao Liuzi, and the commander of the first battalion killed Xiao Liuzi today, and the other units of the enemy army are facing our army head-on on the periphery.

After hearing this, Wu Dashuai nodded slightly, indicating that he was quite satisfied with the work of the chief of staff.

It has been more than two months since the Great War in Zhifeng, and now it is in a state of stalemate, with each other winning and losing, and the domestic situation is not optimistic; students from various universities across the country are marching and demonstrating against the civil war, and the devils of the island countries are sharpening their knives and watching our country with a tiger's eye. The most hateful thing is that the revolutionary party in the south is gradually growing, and if it continues to fight like this, the future of the Beiyang government under its direct control is worrying.

So hearing the news that Guo Songling and Zhang Xueliang were in Qihe, it really made Wu Dashuai feel a sigh in his heart, and he felt that an excellent opportunity had come to the door.

So he ordered the chief of staff to send the ace tiger regiment of the direct army closest to Qihe to rush to the 60-mile road to attack Qihe County at night, and specially explained that Guo Songling and Zhang Xueliang must not be injured by mistake and must be captured alive.

Wu Dashuai calculated in his heart that as long as Zhang Xueliang and Guo Songling were captured alive, he would have bargaining chips with Zhang Zuolin, and he would be able to force him to withdraw from the army.

That's why there are four soldiers of the Tiger Regiment of the Direct Army, who went straight to Zhang Xueliang and only knocked down his guards, but did not hurt his life.

At this time, Zhang Xueliang's guards, under the leadership of the captain of the guard, were fighting fiercely with the incoming army, and no one noticed that these soldiers of the direct army actually rushed straight to capture Zhang Xueliang.

The four people who came over were indeed not ambiguous, and before the soldiers who were protecting Zhang Xueliang could react, they all put them down, and their marksmanship was extremely accurate.

It's no wonder that these people who come here are carefully selected masters.

After all, the young marshal is also a person who has seen the world, he raised his gun and knocked down one, and before he could fire a second shot, the remaining three had already rushed in front of him, and one of them reached out and grabbed the wrist of the young marshal's gun. Then with a clasp of the hand, the young marshal was twisted up.

All this happened too fast, it happened instantly, at this critical moment, I saw Xingliang from a distance of more than ten meters, a grenade that did not pull the string threw out of his hand, and smashed straight into the soldier who caught the young marshal, and smashed his brain on the spot. Immediately after running a few steps and flipping, a side kick that weighed as much as a thousand pounds kicked out when he landed, and directly kicked a soldier closest to the young marshal to the wall, and it seemed that it was almost gone.

The remaining one saw that between the calcium carbide firelight, several companions had been killed, and he raised his gun to Xing Liang to grab it, seeing that his hand had hooked the trigger, Xing Liang advanced forward sideways, held up the barrel of the opponent with his left hand, and smashed his right fist into the left ear door of the sneak attack soldier, and a shuttle bullet shot into the air, and the soldier fell down with a muffled snort.

The young marshal was shocked by Xingliang's superb martial arts that killed three soldiers in an instant with his bare hands, and he was stunned for a moment, Xingliang pulled up the young marshal and said, It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, go quickly! The two ran to the wall in a few steps, and Xingliang pulled the young marshal to climb over easily, and ran away. I don't know how long I ran, but the gunshots behind me sounded farther and farther away, and then the young marshal said, we should be safe, I really can't run, so let's rest for a while and then leave.

As he spoke, he sat down on the ground.

Xingliang didn't sit down, he looked around vigilantly, and suddenly, by the faint moonlight, he saw a group of soldiers with loaded guns walking towards them. Xing Liangxin said that this is over, no matter how high his martial arts are, he will be sent to death in the face of dozens of soldiers with guns. He pointed in that direction and said to the young marshal, "Young marshal, you seem to have so many soldiers, we are finished here." Because they were in an open field, it was too late to hide.

Zhang Xueliang also shuddered when he saw it, and one thought was: It's really over!

The soldiers who came closer and closer, and when he looked at them again, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, it turned out that the weapons and equipment he had held from the soldiers and the clothes he was wearing recognized his own troops.

It turned out that the two of them ran wildly all the way, and by mistake ran to the station of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 38th Brigade more than 20 miles away.

The young marshal replied: His own people!

The leader came over to take a look, knew the young marshal, and hurriedly stood up and saluted!

When they came to the third battalion station, the young marshal and Xingliang were finally safe.

The commander of the third battalion arranged a place for the young marshal and Xingliang, and Xingliang insisted on staying at the door of the young marshal's dormitory.

The young marshal called Xingliang into the room and said, "If it weren't for you and me tonight, it would be a big trouble." In fact, he also saw that the other party didn't want his life, but if he was captured, one was that Wu Peifu would use him as a bargaining chip to negotiate terms with Zhang Zuolin, and there was also a person with such a prominent status as him, if he was captured by the other party, it would become a shame that could not be washed off for a lifetime.

He didn't say too many clichés of gratitude to Xingliang, and finally said, you can follow me in the future.

The next day, a summary report of the situation from all sides came, Guo Songling also escaped under the protection of the guards and soldiers, and his first battalion of soldiers went to protect Guo Songling under the command of the deputy battalion commander. After the frightened Guo Songling broke out, he went directly to the Jiyang army station opposite the rear that night.

There are less than ten guards left of the young marshal's more than 40 people, and the captain of the guard was killed in battle, to say that Wu Peifu's plan should be able to succeed this time, in terms of strength alone, a reinforced tiger regiment is equivalent to three times the strength of all the troops stationed in Qihefeng. However, although Guo Songling and Zhang Xueliang's guards only had more than 100 people, they were all masters of war and well-equipped, so even if they attacked and had an advantage in numbers, they did not get a bargain for the loss of their troops.

The young marshal appointed Xingliang as the captain of the guard, and was responsible for the personal guard of the young marshal in the future.

Xingliang had this opportunity as soon as he became a soldier, also because he had superb martial arts, was alert and unhurried, and he was also recognized by the young marshal by his own character.

Since then, Xingliang's military career has officially begun, he can walk a long, long road, Zhang Xueliang never imagined that the guard chief he just got would become a big man later, of course, this is a later story, let me be auspicious in the future.

Let's return our eyes to the village at the bottom of the well.

The above shows that the respected and helpful old Liuxin has five sons, in addition to the old three Xing Ting and the old Wu Xing Liang who have been introduced, there are also the eldest Xinglan, the second Xingchun and the fourth Xingquan.

Because the Wang family's business is getting bigger and bigger, so all the economic aspects of the family are taken care of by Xinglan, the eldest Xinglan also lives up to the trust of his father, not only the huge family accounts are sorted out clearly, but also gradually started to make their own incense (for rural priests), but also use their own silkworm cocoons to reel silk, and after dyeing, from the previous cocoon to sell raw silk, and gradually began to haberdashery daily necessities, etc., opened a shop in Jingdi Village, every five days to go out to catch four sets, the business is getting bigger and bigger.

The second child Xingchun was responsible for the family's agricultural cultivation and harvesting, and received several helpers, including sheep herders, cattle herders, and a few farmers. Lao Sixingquan also likes to practice martial arts since he was a child, just like his fifth brother Xingliang, but he likes to have fun and is lazy to eat. Originally, his ambition was also to join the army as a soldier, saying that he could be an officer and glorify his ancestors, but he got along with the girl of Ji Liandun's family in the village early, and when the girl's belly was big, Liandun's daughter-in-law came to the door and asked for an explanation. Because he was young and greedy for his daughter-in-law, his fifth brother went to action as a soldier, and he was still holding his daughter-in-law at home.

On this day, Xinglan went to the market to do business again, and Xingchun led the helpers to go out to the field to take care of the dealer.

Lao Liuxin sat at home drinking tea, and Lao Wuxing took care of the scattered small business in the shop. Everything is in order.

When it was almost noon, Xingquan's father-in-law Lian Dun ran to see Lao Liuxin, Xingquan led him in, saw Liuxin, Lian Dun fell to his knees and said: In-laws, my father left today.

In-laws, what are you doing here?

Liuxin said as he hurriedly helped Lian Dun up.

Then he asked, "Where did your father go?"

He didn't react for a moment.

Lian Dun said: What about my in-laws, my father and his old man have gone to the Western Road. Lao Liuxin was also taken aback when he heard it, because he knew that the old man usually looked like he was in good health, so how could he say that he would just leave?

Lian Dun explained his intentions, one was to report the funeral with his in-laws, and the other was to borrow money from the old Wang family to bury his father.

Lao Liuxin arranged for the bank to support 20 oceans from the shop, and Lian Dun said, no need to borrow, just use it, we are a family, you have difficulties to come to me.
