Chapter 25 Crying Qin Court
At this moment, the front-line express horses reported that representatives from the Hunan Army came to negotiate, and soon the representatives of the Hunan Army also rode a horse to Commander-in-Chief Zhao Liqiao.
The representative of the Hunan Army was a very energetic old soldier. His hair and beard were white, his demeanor was noble, but his attitude was very strong. As soon as he met, he said, "Surrender quickly! We just came to three reinforcements from the mixed brigade, and one attack could defeat you!"
Liu Jingxiao is a person who is soft and not hard. He said, "I only have 4,300 officers and soldiers, 1,600 wounded, but I am not afraid of you 100,000 soldiers! I am anxious. All the officers and soldiers charge with bayonets, and all the wounded fire three grenades. Everyone fights to the death. Come on! Let's compete on the battlefield again! Mr., please come back!"
While speaking, Liu Jingxiao smashed his pistol hard on the table and said, "I won! Go down to Changsha to Hengyang, the position of the Hunan governor, I want to sit for a few days, lose! I just die!"
The Hunan Army representative suddenly became soft: "Speak well if you have something to do! Say well if you have something to do!"
Guo Junqing looked at Liu Jingxiao's heroic spirit and was delighted. At this time, he spoke, "I wonder what this gentleman is called?"
The representative of the Hunan Army replied: "I am Hunan Tanyan."
Liu Jingxiao then took the opportunity to archery: "It turns out that it's the old senior who just lost his respect, please sit down!"
Liu Jingxiao spoke very politely at this time. Tan Yan had a very high seniority. Although he was a literati, he had served as the governor and governor of Hunan many times in the past twenty years, and had two basic troops under his command of the mixed brigade.
Yi Heng and Zhao are the strongest internal forces in Hunan, followed by this senior Tan Yan.
Seeing that Liu Jingxiao gave him enough face, Tan Yan sat down and said, "Is this Commander Liu?"
Wang Zhanyuan appointed Liu Jingxiao as the commander-in-chief of the front-line army and was fully responsible for the front-line military. Therefore, Tan Yan said this. Liu Jingxiao nodded and said, "Jingxiao is not talented. It is just because of his responsibilities that he temporarily led the troops to be responsible for combat. Mr. Tan called me Jingxiao."
Tan Yan looked at the officers in the headquarters and asked, "Are these guys all brother Liu's beloved generals?"
Liu Jingxiao nodded and Tan Yan said again: "Brother Liu, you generals, are really tough and capable of fighting. Wang Zichun is also lucky, otherwise we will fight to Wuhan in a week!"
Liu Jingxiao did not understand the old man's intention, so he replied: "The officers and soldiers are just doing their duties, so why should Mr. Liu praise him?"
Tan Yan said, "Brother Liu, don't be humble. You bring ten thousand people to hastily resist the 30,000 brave army of our Hunan Army. We fought hard for eight days and fought with great success. Our army has the absolute advantage of troops, but Yangloudong is still under your command. Although on the hostile standpoint, I have to praise you, it should be called the Tiger Ben Army!"
This is a very high praise, but in the battle of Yangloudong, Liu Jingxiao's troops were indeed a real sword and gun.
Tan Yan then changed his tone and said, "Brother Liu, do you know that your position as commander has been removed from office?"
This fell within Liu Jingxiao's expectations, and he took it calmly and replied: "But Chen Yunjie asked Cheng Yune to be the commander-in-chief of the front enemy? That has nothing to do with me!"
Tan Yanjian couldn't tell Liu Jingxiao, so he used a killer move: "Brother Liu, can you tell the truth about this Hunan-Hubei war?"
Liu Jingxiao said politely: "Please speak!"
Tan Yan talked about some unknown secrets of the Hunan-Hubei War.
It turns out that the Hunan Governor Yi Hengzhao didn't speak much and was very steady. He was definitely not a man of Meng Lang. Although he was inspired by a group of frustrated soldiers in Hubei, he never made a decision on the issue of sending troops.
These frustrated soldiers in Hubei repeatedly promised that as long as Hunan sends troops, Hubei will immediately respond to civilian troops, not to mention that the Hubei army cannot fight, and Wuhan can conquer it in one week.
Of course, all this guarantee was lost. After entering Hubei, the civilian army responded, but they were all dedicated to attacking the Hunan Army. They did not expect that the Hubei Army would have a brave tiger general like Liu Jingxiao. After getting off the car, they fought with the Hunan Army for eight days, especially invincible.
The most important attitude is the attitude of the northern Hubei-Zhizhi system. Wang Zichun is a branch of the Hubei system. The Hubei system may not sit idly by. As for the Direct, Hunan and the Direct, but no one is sure that the Direct will not send troops to aid Hubei.
Hunan sent representatives to Baoding to inquire about the third division's words. It was the commander of the division, Chen Yunjie, who came forward to receive it. However, he was busy with official duties all day long. Even if he encountered it, he would still be "um...um..." and would never say a real thing.
Teacher Chen always believes in Guan Yunchang, and he also learned the Chinese favorite pronunciation technique when he is attentive. The representatives of Hunan have not yet come to an end and are ready to return.
However, they also had unexpected collections. In Baoding, they met Xu Youzheng, the main actor of the Hubei clan. Xu told them that Premier Duan had always been dissatisfied with Wang Zichun, and the Hunan Army had absolutely supported the central government of Hubei. Of course, superficial telegram wars are still needed.
Of course, if you have something to do, please ask the Hunan Army for help. Premier Duan has an inner brother who has been a brigade commander for many years. I hope that Hunan can consider being a garrison commander and division commander in Hubei.
Duan Tiemin married many wives, so there were many brothers in his inner circle. Duan personally thinks that the relatives are the closest ones, and always like to appoint these brothers, which is reasonable.
He received a lot of gains and paid very little. This is very welcome to Hunan. Xu Youzheng also said that Chen Yunjie was responsible for it.
Sure enough, the next time I met Chen Yunjie, Commander Chen learned the unique skill of changing faces from Sichuan Middle School and said, "Although I don't agree with your invasion of Hubei, I really agree with the expulsion of Wang Zichun..."
The representative of the Hunan Army then sent a telegram back to Hunan, but the first person to receive the telegram was Lu Dangping, the most proactive war faction. He immediately reported: "Not only did Deputy Chief Xu support him, Commander Chen also agreed to expel Wang Zichun..." As for Chen Yunjie's previous sentence, he had long been cut off.
Hunan has only officially assisted Hubei. Unexpectedly, it encountered Liu Jingxiao's tough bones. They fought hard for eight days and suffered nearly 10,000 casualties. They had not completely solved Liu Jingxiao's troops. The rapid dispatch of troops caught Hunan off guard.
While he was talking, Wanyan Yuzhuo sent a telegram that was extremely intensified in Wuhan. When Liu Jingxiao looked at the telegram, there were only five words on it: Support Hubei but not King.
The art of Chinese speaking is indeed at its peak. Chen Yunjie said: "Although I do not agree with your invasion of Hubei, I do very much agree with the expulsion of Wang Zichun..." In fact, it is to say that the Zhijun probably had long been interested in Hubei's territory and waited for the Hunan Army to jump into this trap.
Now Wuhan is afraid that there will be a scene of forcing the palace. Of course, the successor general also has to give in a few words on the surface and then kick Wang Zichun away with one kick.
Liu Jingxiao forwarded the telegram to Tan Yan. Tan Yan's face was not good-looking, but he continued: "Brother Liu, you don't have to care! Why not join us and create great achievements together! The officers and soldiers all praised Brother Liu for his unparalleled courage. We in Hunan are very welcome. As long as you turn against each other, Cheng Lu will definitely be defeated. At that time, I will recommend you as the commander and guardian."
After saying soft words, Tan Yan said tough words again: "The soldiers are fast. If you drag them down, the battle situation will be very unfavorable to you and us. There are not many troops left. Our army has arrived in three mixed brigades, and I am afraid your troops will not be able to hold on for a long time!"
Liu Jingxiao was still very steady at this time. He replied: "This matter is too big. Can I discuss it with the cadres before making a decision? Of course, I promise that there will be no unfavorable actions on the front line to your army. We will quit for half a day first. Today I promise to give you an answer."
Tan Yan agreed to this, and Liu Jingxiao immediately convened the army's regiment battalion company commander for a meeting.
At the beginning, Liu Jingxiao told the situation in its original form, but the cadres were very concerned about joining the Hunan Army. They had a bloody battle with the Hunan Army these days, and the casualties of the Hunan Army were no less than 10,000. God knows whether the Hunan Army’s promise counts.
As for those who advocate fighting to die, they also have doubts. The remaining troops are now only more than 4,000, and there are thousands of wounded people crying and crying in the good mood. In this battle, the troops may have a way out, but what should they do if these thousands of wounded people do?
As for Fu Sbo and Hua Yueying who attended, they firmly opposed seeking the Hunan Army. They had not produced many strong men from Liu Jingxiao these days. Both of them had the idea of Dingbian Army and wanted to bring this army to Taiwan. If Liu Jingxiao defected to the Hunan Army, their plans would be completely lost.
However, when Liu Jingxiao said that Cheng Yune's brigade was stationed in Cha'an Ridge, fifteen miles behind Zhaoli Bridge, he never sent a soldier to reinforce him. Meng Dingguo said, "Yune? Let's come up and take the initiative? Let's go down and rest and talk about it."
Liu Jingxiao smiled: "Dingguo, don't tell jokes, how could he come up to reinforce!"
Meng Dingguo smiled and said, "He is my old alumnus, and he has been in love with me for more than ten years. The division commander asked me to do it! Even if I cry, I want to cry for Qin Ting!"
The so-called crying in Qin Ting refers to the fact that after Wu Yuan destroyed Chu, the Chu doctor Shen Baoxu remembered the promise he had said to Wu Yuan that "I will revive Chu, and I will revive Chu" and ran to Qin to borrow troops. Qin Ai Duke hesitated and refused to send troops. Shen Baoxu cried bitterly in Qin Ting. For seven days and seven nights, he moved Duke Su Ai and borrowed troops to recover Chu. Meng Ding's country is talking about this allusion.
After Meng Dingguo said this, Liu Jingxiao sent Guo Junqing, Meng Dingguo and Murong Xuehai to Chenglu Daying to cry to Qin Ting, and by the way, he saw what Chen Yunjie had made.
The group of three entered the Chenglu camp and met the new commander-in-chief of the front-in-chief Cheng Yune.
The commander Cheng Yune was the younger brother of former Prime Minister Cheng Yunpeng, the uncle of Zhang Buyun’s wife Cheng Huixiang. So as soon as he met, Guo Junqing talked about an old story with Cheng Huixiang back then and got into a relationship. Then Meng Dingguo said to Cheng Yune: "The right wing is really tight, so I'd better ask Yune to send a group of soldiers or a battalion to reinforce!"
Murong Xuehai is very good at speaking. He said on the side: "Commander-in-Chief Cheng, your reinforcements are just to help us control the rear of the right wing. Unless you have to be sure, you will never let your troops participate in the battle. When the battle situation stabilizes, you will immediately change your troops back!"
To the surprise of the three, Cheng Yune's reply turned out to be: "The headquarters was ordered to help Hubei, but was ordered by the deputy envoy Chen to strictly order. After he was on the front line, if he did not obey the order of the envoy, he would not be allowed to send troops and soldiers without permission, so the headquarters was not convenient to send troops to reinforce!"
The so-called Deputy Envoy Chen refers to Chen Yunjie, who also serves as Cao Ming's deputy envoy, so he is called Deputy Envoy Chen. The three special envoys were disappointed. After saying it several times, Cheng Yune all answered the same answer.
Commander Meng is a very loyal and honest person. He has had a deep friendship with Cheng Yune for many years. He felt that he could not explain to Liu Jingxiao if he didn't get reinforcements. In a hurry, he knelt on Cheng Yune and cried and said, "We are not close to each other, we are not close to each other, we are still close to each other! In any case, please send troops to support quickly to make sure we have everything!"
Cheng Yunpeng was emotionally excited and revealed the truth in his heart. This time he did not call Deputy Envoy Chen. He said: "I really don't understand what Chen Yunjie sold in his gourd. Since I sent me to help Hubei, it was strange that I was not allowed to reinforce me at an emergency."
At this time, everyone had a complete understanding of the truth about the Zhi army aiding Hubei. They clearly wanted to sacrifice the Hubei army and occupy the territory of Hubei. So Guo Junqing suddenly pulled Meng Dingguo up and said, "Commander-in-Chief Cheng is a soldier, and obedience is his duty. Without the orders of Deputy Envoy Chen, even if the enemy army attacked the central army, Commander-in-Chief Cheng would not fight back. Let's go quickly."
Cheng Yune sent us out with embarrassment and said as he walked: "I do have a hidden secret, but Chief of Staff Guo's words are really a little too powerful."
Just when Meng Dingguo was crying in Qin Ting in Cheng Lu, Liu Jingxiao got another bad news, and Wang Zichun resigned on a telegram.
Wang Zichun's telegram said: "...I have observed the current situation silently, and it is impossible to follow the trend without autonomy. The warlords have taken over power for a long time. Zichun is always indifferent, so how can he bear to retreat because of his illness? He is a move to defend himself by holding troops..."
This is a concealment statement, and another telegram is very obvious: "Our army fought fiercely with the enemy for eight days and nights, and was extremely distressed. Although Deputy Envoy Chen had arrived in Han, he had been doing business and asked for help. Although he agreed, he planned to plan and could only move forward after the entire army gathered together. He also embarked on a journey ahead because he did not take the order of the commander-in-chief, and could not fight freely..."
While resigning with Wang Zichun, Ding Chong announced his resignation as the inspector of the Two Lakes. Wanyan Yuzhuo sent a telegram saying that Wang Zichun cherished this position very much. When he wrote about his resignation, he burst into tears and even calculated how much money the position of the supervisor could make in a year.
When Wanyan Yuzhuo saw this situation, he said with the idea of using waste: "If Jingxiao had come one month earlier, he would not have been able to reach the current situation."
Wang Zichun also felt the same way. Wanyan Yuzhuo took the opportunity to ask for a lot of things that he could not take away and did not want to leave to the Zhi army. In addition, only seven or eight hundred people left in Wuhan City were also assigned to Liu Jingxiao's command.
