Chapter 50 Yuchen's Determination

The night gradually began to cover the river surface, and there was only the sound of waves and tides on the entire river. The Wuhe and the guard's gunboats were still moving upstream. The beacons flashed in the distance, making the night look extremely quiet.

Yuchen walked on the back deck with Sima Zhan with his hands behind his back. The laughter of the reporters in the bottom cabin came in waves. The two walked quietly. In fact, they were about the same age, and I don’t know why. Sima Zhan, who was a little lazy, felt that he had not much to say on weekdays, who always thought about Yuchen, who was thinking about his mind, didn’t have much to say.

Although Yuchen was a little dissatisfied with the important information he had not received permission, he finally explained it. If he was not there, during the camp period, the information would be left to the Chief of Staff Sima to handle. He didn't care about Yuchen's extraordinary treatment. Anyway, he would read it if he told him, and he would read it if he didn't explain.

After walking for a while, even Sima Zhan counted out how many bundles of cables on the back deck. Yuchen stood up and suddenly asked him with his arms around, "Chunru, what do you think?"

Sima Zhan was stunned and was startled by his sudden sound. He finally came to his senses and said with a smile: "Commander, you have already made plans. Didn't Jiangbeijun always say that you are arbitrary? Why do you want to ask for the advice of a little adviser?"

Yuchen smiled. Although Sima Zhan had only been with him for a few days, he had already seen it. This guy was indeed very talented. When he came to his hands, the opinions he intended to pay attention were quick and good. However, it was inevitable that some geniuses often had the temper. In his opinion, he still had to use his strengths to employ people. In the office building, he had already had this management experience.

He suddenly felt extremely bored. The road ahead seemed to have no end, and if he was not careful every day, he would be ruined. Everything he worked hard for seemed like a castle built on the beach. It looked huge but had a shallow foundation. It has been a year since he came to this era. How deep has he influenced history? What did he really do to make the national fortune turn? He really didn't know all this. And he had become a little different from himself.

Yuchen sighed softly and put away the flashing emotions. He said to Sima Zhan seriously: "When did I make arbitrary decision? I still attach great importance to everyone's opinions. Chunru, I know you are extremely talented and intelligent. That's why I sincerely solicit your opinions. How should we deal with the current situation?"

This time Yuchen really had no idea. He was not as easy as the characters of the Tongmenghui. Li Liejun and other local powerful figures were easy to deal with. If the upper-level figures who left their names in history were really unfavorable to him, how should he deal with it? If it was a little too much, it would be a situation where his subordinates were in a state of being weaker, and he didn't want to hand over the foundation he had built up with his hard work in vain.

What is most troubled now is the lack of intelligence. What concessions did Yuan Shikai give to contact the upper class of the Tongmenghui? What are the opinions of those big names? These things have never happened in history. It is a completely new situation. And he must use his talents to deal with them. He can no longer predict the enemy's initiative and take advantage of his mistakes. Is his ability really enough to deal with these cunning figures?

Seeing Yuchen's heartfelt look, Sima Zhan couldn't help but smile and said, "Commander, what are you worried about? In my opinion, there is no need to..." Under the night, Sima Zhan's eyebrows flew slanted, but there was still a sarcastic smile on his lips. He was really a very handsome young man.

"Now the commander has reached this point. There are some things that really should not be too concerned about. You already have the strength in your hands. What you need to consider is how to make this strength stronger and stronger until others need to rely on you. Li Liejun takes action in Hubei and knows that you are behind you. In any case, he will not suffer any losses in the end. So the commander can take advantage of the situation and finally take Jiangxi into his hands.

In this chaotic year, the most important thing is not only strength, but also strength. As for the excuses you have done, when it comes to this point, naturally someone will help you find it......... The deer will be lost, and the whole world will chase it. In the past, it was Yuan Shikai and the Ministries. But now, there is one more you."

Sima Zhan's words were like a flash of lightning flashing across the Yangtze River, which illuminated Yuchen's mind. Yes, what are you afraid of now? The territory of these three provinces has never left his good reputation, the 80,000 tigers spread all over the Yangtze River, the warships and warships on the surging rivers, the Federal Party, the Qing Army Association, and the gradually formed bureaucratic system that is dependent on itself. The program of local autonomy and the performance of not surrendering to the great powers...... Are these all the foundation of your own strength? Haven't you also become a force that can be called on. Is it that people can send hope and prepare to rely on the submission? Isn't it possible to compete with Yuan Shikai? Even if the Tongmenghui comes in, the situation has become a little complicated. His strength is still growing. In front of the Jiangbei Army, which is like the rising sun, there are no obstacles that cannot be overcome.

Before he knew it, he had reached this point. Time was like lightning, and the water was surging. He took off his military cap and faced the Yangtze River, his chest was fluctuating.

Sima Zhan stood behind him, watching him lower his head slightly, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, Sima Zhan saw Yuchen turn around and his eyes became much more firm. He knew that in the heart of this young commander, there was also something called determination.

It feels so good to see history changing around you. Sima Zhan suddenly said this to himself in his heart. A person like him doesn’t care about his power, but rather what role he can play in this change.

At this time, the bright moon on the river was shining on the two of them.

Just as Yuchen was rushing towards Hubei's front line, the Beijing government's orders were issued in a hurry. Chen Huan was appointed as the governor of Hubei and the general office of Hubei's military affairs aftermath, urging Li Yuanhong to come to Beijing quickly, and also pinched his nose to express the name of Yuchen's Hubei military affairs aftermath. In addition, Chen Huan and Yuchen were appointed to negotiate on the confrontation between China and Britain on the Yangtze River. They were regarded as pushing this trouble to the local area.

In addition, Li Liejun was removed from his position as the governor of Jiangxi and ordered him to go to Shanghai for questioning. He promised to give him a fair investigation. Ouyang Wu's governor of Jiangxi was promoted in the name of Jiangxi, but ordered the Jiangbei army to withdraw from Jiangxi and be evacuated within one month. The central government also planned to convene the southern governors to convene a preparatory meeting for the military and political consolidation after the election before the general election. The location was in Shanghai. This time, Beijing did it without any loss, not only recognizing some fait accompli, but also firmly ensuring Hubei was in his own hands. Old Yuan seemed to have moved the battlefield and did not want to be entangled with Yuchen on the Hubei-Jiangxi issue anymore. Perhaps subconsciously, he also knew that Yuchen was not an opponent that could be suppressed by a central order. When he finally showed up with him, he still relied on strength. Only strength.

So he rushed to quickly settle everything at the beginning and end, calming down the domestic political situation at all costs, and allowing the aftermath to be passed quickly. As long as he has money, he believes that with his deep-rooted domestic power, he will still be quite sure to slowly deal with the southern governors, especially Yuchen.

Yuchen arrived in Ezhou in this delicate atmosphere. The Gan Army in Ezhou selected elite troops and welcomed them with the 18th Brigade of the Jiangbei Army at the dock. When Yuchen looked down from the boat, there were figures wearing yellow military uniforms on the dock. The Gan Army now seemed to be no different from the Jiangbei Army. Only Li Liejun's blue figure was so conspicuous among the crowd.

The reporters rushed to the shore in a mess, and the people with photography equipment were waiting for the moment when Yuchen and Li Liejun met. Both of them were backgrounds of the Tongmenghui. But now one was proud and occupied three provinces. The other had to hand over the territory and military power in his hands, and might even go to Beijing to apologize. At this time, the handover scene would make people have unlimited expectations for what the two said when they met.

The military music at the dock was played, and Yuchen quickly walked down the springboard without waiting for Li Liejun to come up. Seeing Li Liejun being about to salute him, he pressed his hand with a smile on his face: "Brother Xiehe, you are wronged! Brother, I really can't help you, I'm here now!"

Li Liejun looked depressed. Seeing the reporter looking at him from the side, he forced a smile: "The rain tour commander has worked hard all the way. You have arrived here and just finished the explanation with me. I will be responsible for handing over the Gan Army to you and Zhi Ge. You can clap your hands and go to Beijing to wait for punishment."

Yuchen was stunned, took his hand and walked outside, not even caring about maintaining his demeanor in front of the reporter. He knew that Li Liejun must be full of resentment now. The two cases A and B that he and Sima Zhan pondered were finally adopted. Although Li Liejun was mentally prepared for the matter, he was a governor who was originally a local emperor and looked like he had no place to stay. He was eager to know whether Li Liejun had more opinions on whether Tongmenghui would support him, or whether he had taken action against him Yuchen afterwards and gained more benefits.

But Li Liejun kept silent.

The reporters flocked to follow, but Tao Dingnan had already blocked them: "Mr. reporters, the Yuzhou Passenger and Mr. Union He have important things to talk about now. You cannot be disturbed. When the matter is settled, you will definitely give you news that satisfies you... Everyone has worked hard all the way. Brothers, can you take you to settle here?"

Seeing hundreds of guard soldiers gathered around Yu Li and the other two on the horse and headed towards the Gan Army General Command, the reporters had to smack their lips in disappointment, waiting for the kind Deputy Chief Tao to arrange for them to rest. Even if it was time to handle the aftermath, there was unlimited news waiting for them to dig. Or, as long as you follow Yu Chen, you will not have any news! Look at Gu Zhizhong's current identity as the number one reporter in Shanghai, who wouldn't want to be the second person?

"Brother Xiehe, you can't leave. Now you and my brothers are the two of you. We might as well let go of some things. Old Yuan, Beijing, will break up with him sooner or later. Why do you continue to go to Beijing to suffer that humiliation? He lost face in the Hubei-Gansu incident. He may not be very polite to you. I have no choice but to treat my brother, and I may just irritate you. At that time, Brother Xiehe will not make trouble for Zhang Zhenwu and will be criticized. Why is this going to be?"

Li Liejun looked at Yuchen, he was riding on the horse, looking at him sincerely. Yuchen said this and was very affectionate about him. Li Liejun was also slightly moved. He sighed: "But the central government issued an order, and I am a soldier of the Republic of China, so how can I disobey my order? Mr. Keqiang also sent a telegram from Shanghai, saying that he would go to Beijing with me to apologize. I am a member of the Tongmenghui, so how can I not obey the order?"

Yuchen finally heard some of his resentment towards the Tongmenghui from his words. He laughed and waved his hand and said, "What do you care about Huang Keqiang? He is a revolutionary predecessor. But this time the war in Hubei and Jiangxi is not that we want to build a revival base for Tongmenghui in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River after the end of the left-behind residence in Nanjing? We all know very well about Lao Yuan, but in the end he still can't tolerate us... But what did Huang Keqiang do these days? When the Gan Army entered Hubei, if he had arrived at the front line as the Hubei investigation envoy, he would have a certain status. I dare to guarantee that we are all in Wuchang City now! But Mr. Huang cherishes his feathers too much and insists on looking at the scenery in Shanghai. You must know that the world is fought for, not waiting for it!

When the Northern Army headed south, the Wuxue tragedy occurred. When our Jiangbei Army resolutely sent troops, Mr. Huang ran to Hong Kong by himself when he saw the situation became complicated. Now he had a scene of going to Beijing to apologize. His old man tasted too much. I won’t take him!"

Li Liejun listened to Yuchen's energetic praise and criticism, and he criticized one of the two giants of the Tongmenghui for this. For some reason, he agreed with him very much. Yes, if the Tongmenghui had taken advantage of the situation where the provisional government had been established in Nanjing and decisively insisted on the Northern Expedition, these giants would not have fallen to the point of playing with Yuan Shikai's palm. He has always believed that strength is the first priority.

But now the basic strength of the Tongmenghui is already in scattered. Sun Daoren, Guangdong Chen Jiongming, and Jiangxi are considered the third governor of the Tongmenghui, but Fujian is too weak. Chen Jiongming, Guangdong, has had a very unhappy relationship with Sun Huang because of the Tongmenghui's plan to replace him with Hu Hanmin as the governor of Guangdong. In addition, there is also the surveillance of the Ji army, the Beiyang peripheral force. The true strength is his Gan army and this Gan province! He used all opportunities to expand his strength but was not planning for the cause of the Tongmenghui? Who knew that he had fought alone and had such a result in the end. Apologizing for the offense, it's a big deal!

Yuchen continued to persuade him, and his words naturally showed a strong confidence: "Beijing, don't pay attention to him! Yuan Shikai is also demolishing the east and west walls, and is struggling to support him. When the election begins, it may be another variable! Please be my deputy envoy to the inspection. Isn't Lin Songting staying at Jiangbei now at peace? Now the upper level of the Tongmenghui has been divided into several pieces, and Old Yuan is just such a person. It depends on you and me to truly build a powerful new China!"

This is the first time Yuchen revealed to outsiders that he had the desire to win the world. It is still ten days before he came to this world. How many things have happened in this year? I wonder if it was the times that created Yuchen, a very dazzling figure now, or did he change the course of this era?

In this great era, everything is possible. Everything is still changing.

Although Li Liejun was shocked by Yuchen's words, he was still more confused. At this time, his mind was in a mess and he really didn't know what to say. Yuchen looked at him and smiled and said, "Brother Xiehe, some decisions should not be rushed for a while. After you have to go through the deputy envoy of Jiangbei, you can walk around Jiangbei and see more. I will keep the Gan Army for you. Brother Zhige is just a nominal governor. When will you really integrate the Gan Army and the Jiangbei Army? Just talk at that time. The development of the Jiangbei Army is bound to be a talent like you."

Having said that, Li Liejun, who was unwilling to go to Beijing and did not want to leave the Gan Army, finally nodded: "Yu Sui Yu, you treat people like this. What else can I say to you? The 18,000 brothers from the Gan Army will be sold to you. I am willing to do something with the Sui Yu Sui. I am willing to do something else with the Sui Yu Sui. I am not willing to think too much." Although he said that, he still looked depressed.

Yuchen smiled and nodded. It was not easy for Li Liejun to say this. Although it was the current situation that was oppressed by several aspects, he had to obey his persuasion and reorganize the Gan Army into a unit of the Jiangbei Army system. However, it was still a good start for him to make the strong governor bow his head to express his obedience to the arrangements. He was truly determined and ready to start from now on and move towards the final goal.

Gan Army? Now they are feeding Jiangbei and using Jiangbei’s food and salary. The officers are transferred to Jiangbei Army School for training and a few exchange services. Will the Gan Army still exist independently?

Yuchen understood this very well, and Li Liejun also understood this very well. But none of them said it.

"Governor, Yuchen has arrived in Ezhou now. He has already met with Li Liejun. He submitted a letter to you and asked when he would meet to discuss the aftermath of Hubei."

Chen Huan was looking at calligraphy and paintings in the room of the Hubei Governor's Office, and was interested in turning left and right. When he heard his adjutant report this matter, he suddenly became interested: "Yuchen submitted a document to me? Take it over and take it over! I can receive such official documents in the form of lower-level figures, but I, Chen Er'an, will have a lifetime honor."

As the governor, according to the red-eyed division commanders under his command, he had no effort to get it. The three divisions led a large army to go south and only cleaned up the remaining troops of the Gan Army who had failed to attack in Wuchang. He leisurely did not arrange any military affairs in Xiaogan, so the two sides had already ceased fire. Then the central government ordered him and he leisurely rushed to Wuchang and took over the position of Hubei governor.

"The President is too unfair to us old men in Beiyang!" Cao Kun, the commander of the Third Division, complains so much now when he sees people.

Chen Huan took the paper and looked around. Yuchen indeed followed the tone of the subordinates to the superiors. He asked very politely when he could meet with the general manager to discuss the aftermath of Hubei. He also took the initiative to suggest that the place to discuss the place where the talks will be located in Wuhan.

Chen Huan secretly admired him: "Yu Chen is really brave. It seems that he is really a big deal!" He still said in his heart. When the Nanjing Provisional Government insisted that Yuan Shikai go to Nanjing to take office, he refused to go. If he really went, would there be any danger? He just refused to go. He welcomed Yuan Zhizhi's envoy over and instructed Cao Kun to cause a mutiny. As a result, the rift with the Tongmenghui was planted from this. Because everyone could see that he was a person who wanted to be self-dedicated in the north.

But Yuchen seemed to have the courage to come to Wuchang like this. How dare he come to Wuchang lightly?

He narrowed his eyes and wondered if he was suggesting to President Yuan. The central government immediately passed an order, scolding Yuchen for sending troops to Hubei and Jiangxi without permission, and refused to obey the central government's dispatch. He confronted China and Britain in the Yangtze River, causing several charges to cause international negotiations. As soon as he arrived in Wuchang, he detained him? Without him, the three provinces in Jiangbei would have collapsed. This was really a tempting idea.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh.

There was a loud sound of riding boots at the door. Chen Huan looked up and saw Cao Kun, who was short in size, and a few senior officers of the 2nd Division, and the 8th Division rushed in casually. Cheng Qi and the adjutant of the Governor's Office followed them with a look of embarrassment. It seemed that these people came in without a notice. Anyway, Chen Huan was now used to the impolite attitudes of his subordinates, waved his adjutant to retreat, and asked with a good temper: "Zhongsan, what are you doing?"

Cao Kun said loudly: "Governor, I heard that Yuchen is coming to Wuhan to negotiate with us. We all discussed it below, so we should just detain this kid or beat him to death! As long as the president gives the order, it is legitimate! We will save a lot of trouble now!"

Chen Huan frowned with disgust. All the telegrams and documents received by the army commander were not confidential to the arrogant soldiers and generals under his command. Chief of Staff Wang Ruxian and these division commanders were completely on the same line. They discussed everything with them first. I am afraid that they knew the news that Yuchen was coming earlier than they knew.
