Liangbi's level is rising and falling. Song Biao and Jiang Fangzhen can't tell how Liangbi will arrange it. Therefore, they made four speculations in the command center. First, the most likely army will be tightened to the outer city. Defence; second is to fight decisively in the Tongzhou area; third is to send some defenders to the capital, and the other main forces went south to attack Zhuozhou, and strive to meet with the second town to flee south; fourth is to leave some defenders to the capital, and the main forces went north to break through from Zhangjiakou.

The first one is the most likely, and the other three situations may also occur. The Intelligence Bureau and the Secret Service have different intelligence points in the capital, but now there is no reconnaissance of the Qing army, not the information from Song Biao. The officer and the spy were not good, but Liangbi and Zaifeng were in a mess. They issued several telegrams that violated each other in a row, and they couldn't figure out what the Qing army was going to do.

The intelligence work of the Northeast New Army was first in charge of Shu Fangde, but later it was Zhang Jun of the Restoration Association. Now it was Jiang Zhengyuan, and Zhang Jun, who was gradually gaining Song Biao's trust, replaced Yuan Jinkai and Li Shirui presided over the work of the secret service bureau. Jiang Zhengyuan and Zhang Jun were both confused and could only submit all kinds of messy telegrams to Song Biao.

There are three sources of intelligence from the Revolutionary Army. One is through espionage activities within foreign embassies in Beijing. The main is to use telegrams from the Danish Dabei Company; the other is to some members of the Restoration Association buried within the Beiyang Army through the Restoration Association. Organize the sending of wireless telegrams in the capital; third, some commercial personnel disguised as commercial institutions convey information within the capital through clever arrangements and sending commercial telegrams to southern units such as Shanghai.

These are three different sources of intelligence. The three sources of intelligence are summed up together, and no matter how you look at it, it is wrong.

Dozens of completely different information made Song Biao confused. The news came from the Sixth Town of the Beiyang Army that it was going to fight to Tongzhou, the First Town was going to Zhangjiakou north, and the police force was going to There is no news at all. I just say that I want to defend the capital.

After reading the information, Song Biao asked Jiang Zhengyuan. Zhang Jun, questioning, doubting whether Liangbi had deliberately chaotic information. In fact, he wanted to continue to break into Zhuozhou. Jiang Zhengyuan and Zhang Jun couldn't explain it clearly.

Song Biao lit a cigarette with Shengjing card and smoked it. Sitting at the conference table at the command center to ponder the thoughts. Zhang Jun and Li Shirui could only accompany him. On the other side of the conference table, Jiang Fangzhen and Martos were respectively Responsible for managing the two staff bureaus and deploying response strategies separately.

No matter what Liangbi's choice is, they still need to start guarding in four aspects at the same time. The Fourth Cavalry Brigade has set up defenses in Xuanhua, actively guarding along the road, and controlling as much as possible the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway; Cai E also needs to step up the defenses in Zhuozhou, The Beiyang Army's possibility of attacking from north to south; Tianjin stepped up its attack. The First Infantry Division and the 20th Town advanced to the Machang at the same time. The First Infantry Division went south to attack. The 20th Town divided the 19th Team to garrison Tianjin, and drew Send the 20th association south to attack the fourth town stationed in Machang.

The main force of the Second Infantry Division has already arranged defense lines in Tongzhou and adopted a step-by-step strategy to advance towards the capital, and be prepared to fight the Qing army around Tongzhou.

After roughly considering it, Song Biao and Jiang Zhengyuan asked: "Based on your understanding of Liangbi, which corresponding strategy would he choose?"

Jiang Zhengyuan sighed: "Master, although Liang Bi and I have had three years of classmate with Lu Shi in Zhenwu School, we are not familiar with him. It is difficult to explain his thoughts clearly. If I were him, I I will definitely choose to break south along the Beijing-Han Railway. The key is that Zaifeng and he made a decision at the same time. The prince in the capital said that Prince Su was in charge of the military and police. He might have the idea of ​​perseverance to the end, but Zaifeng might be I want to take the emperor away first, and I may have the idea of ​​staying behind, anyway, all the roads are blocked."

Song Biao nodded slightly, handed over the telegrams to them, and said, "You should hurry up and investigate various information, and be sure to send the news back before the Qing Dynasty determines the final plan."

Jiang Zhengyuan and Zhang Jun both nodded, and then hurried back to the Intelligence Bureau to do things.

They have been in the Northeast New Army for nearly five years. Being by Song Biao over the years can also be said to have gained Song Biao's trust, otherwise they would not have managed the most important intelligence department.

After the two of them left, the Contact Bureau sent the Navy's information. The Qing Navy mainly consisted of the cruiser fleet and the Yangtze River fleet. The commander-in-chief of the cruiser fleet was Cheng Biguang, who was a revolutionary party. The problem was that it was a member of the Tongmenghui. He participated in the Guangzhou Uprising and then withdrew and returned to the Qing Navy under Li Hongzhang's pardon.

Cheng Biguang knew the existence of the Tongguang Society, but he neither joined nor intervened.

At this time, the cruiser fleet had not started its global voyage in the late Qing Dynasty and was parked separately in Qingdao Port and Tianjin. Liang Bi sent a telegram to lead the fleet to attack Jinzhou and Haizhou, trying to force the Northeast Army to return. This idea was naive.

Cheng Biguang did not move.

However, Cheng Biguang had no idea of ​​an uprising.

The liaison bureau of the General Command is responsible for contacting new troops and other revolutionary forces in various places. The focus at this time is to contact the navy. The Yangtze River Fleet is no longer a big problem. Even if there is no uprising, it will definitely not affect the revolution. Cheng Biguang has been slow to do so. No statement was made.

Finally, Cheng Biguang's call came back, the contact bureau hurriedly sent the telegram to Song Biao.

When Song Biao opened the telegram book, he saw that Cheng Biguang's reply was very simple - Revolution first, republic is the best, and he is willing to encourage the commander to only observe the ambitions of his subordinates.

Seeing this telegram, Song Biao at least breathed a sigh of relief. There should be no problem with the cruiser fleet. The revolution is certain. After all, the overall situation has been like this. As for whether the Navy supports the Restoration Association or the Tongmeng Association, then let's see The collective attitude of naval officers and soldiers of each fleet.

Cheng Biguang is not easy to mess with. Later, he was assassinated by someone close to Mr. Sun. The conflict between the two sides was just a battle for control of the navy.

Song Biao thought for a while and then called Cheng Biguang back with seven words - congratulations on the revolution and encouraged them together.

He doesn't want to say anything else for the time being. (To be continued)
