Chapter 10 Guide
Tens of thousands of ragged soldiers were shaking in the cold wind, and they were all about to slid back, but when they saw Yang Linji's figure, they all became energetic and lined up automatically without orders. Yang Linji walked in the middle and opened his hands and said, "Now I have a task, someone needs to voluntarily die, but I can't tell you what this task is! If you are willing to perform this task, take a step forward!"
After saying that, the entire team was neat, as if there was not even a single one out of the line. Yang Linyi was about to speak, but found that 30,000 people took a neat step forward. He burst into tears and suddenly knelt on the ground and said with all his strength: "Men of Guanzhong and Weibei, I, Yang Linyi, will definitely take you to play a scene!"
The Shaanxi military officers and soldiers shouted in unison: "We listen to Brother Yang!"
After the matter was finished, Yang Linyi immediately sent Yue Zhonglin to run quickly to seek salary. Before leaving, Yang Linyi touched his pocket, took out two oceans, and said to Yue Zhonglin: "Zhong Lin! You can use this little money first!"
Although Yang Linyi gave only these two oceans to Yue Zhonglin, Yue Zhonglin also knew how much money Yang Linyi had, and refused repeatedly: "Brother Yang! This is not true! I'll find a way!"
But Yang Linyi said lightly: "Go early and come back soon!"
Shanghai. Treasury Exchange.
As soon as he saw the fat man coming to inspect with a harmless smile from humans and animals, the red vests on the government bond exchange were either facing a great enemy or trembling with fear.
Xu Zhen was indeed a good plunderer! Since the government bond guaranteed to sort out the government bond market, the railway bonds, which were originally depreciated to be worthless, immediately returned a little value. The exchange's private property was also plundered by him with the four words "governance and rectification", and the traders were even more slaughtered to death.
Xu Zhen is very artistic in scraping the ground. He always said in advance: "We serve the majority of investors to increase and maintain value..." Then he moved the money several dozens of times in the account a day, half for public and half for private purposes. In the end, he added hundreds of industries in Shanghai.
But today there was bad news, and when a group of people saw him, they kept asking around Xu Zhen: "Do you know if Xu Baobao tell me that Liu Jingxiao led 60,000 or 70,000 troops into Henan..."
"What should I do?"
"If the Longhai Railway is cut off, how much is the loss..."
"Yes, yes, Liu Jingxiao won't ward off the car on Longhai Road again?"
At this time, Xu Zhen continued to smile harmlessly with humans and animals. He first opened his hands to signal everyone to calm down, and then said, "Please rest assured everyone... I just reached an agreement with Shandong Commander Liu after many negotiations... No matter how fierce the fight is, the car will be transported by cargo... The railway will not be damaged..."
Then he said: "Then I have good news to tell you that in order to promote the appreciation and preservation of public debts, our exchange decided to reorganize the following types of public debts!"
Then Xu Zhen listed several types of public debts he bought in private yesterday, and then announced major positive news: "After repeated negotiations between our exchange and the 17th Division, all the trains detained by the 17th Division were now released..."
In fact, Xu Zhen forced the Ministry of Transport to agree that each locomotive had to pay a sum of silver for Liu Jingxiao when it passed through. Liu Jingxiao actually changed from public robbery to sharing the spoils. Of course, the goods that Liu Jingxiao robbed this time could only swallow his anger.
On that day, railway bonds were not affected by the war and jumped all the way. In particular, the four words "asset restructuring" had infinite charm. Although the essence of the public bonds has not changed, they are still junk public bonds, but once these four words were stuck, all of them hit the daily limit, especially the Beijing-Feng Railway bonds hit the daily limit as soon as they opened.
Xu Zhen stood aside, looked at the popular exchange, and thought to himself: "What name will I make money next?"
At this time, someone patted Xu Zhen on the shoulder. Xu Zhen turned around with a smile, but saw a young lady. The young lady was also smiling. Xu Zhen was scared and sweated in a cold sweat. He quickly said: "Hello, Miss Qian!"
The lady's surname is Qian, and her name is Qing. She is famous for being both rich and powerful. Although the Qian family is not as rich as the Xu family, the Shen family is rich in China, but her family property is tens of millions. She is also a big dealer in the securities market. She is an extremely powerful figure. Qian Qing is petite and cute, but she is powerful. As expected, she said as soon as she opened her mouth: "Xu Guarantee, the money supply has been tightened recently and the capital turnover is not working. You can borrow five million first!"
Xu Zhen has always believed in the purpose of serving the present ocean. Friends can do it, but not want it. Liu Jingxiao borrowed 5 million yuan of military salary from him. He pretended not to hear it. He just wanted to reopen the Jinpu Road and add a hype concept. Then he agreed to Liu Jingxiao's loan request: "Brother, this is a loan loan from others, two-part profit..."
Liu Jingxiao took the money and immediately returned: "I will lend this money to me and return it to Brother Xu!" He didn't mention the interest, and Xu Zhen had no choice, but Xu Zhen estimated that Liu Jingxiao had collected a lot of money in recent years, and he could get at least 60% or 70% back. The money was just transferred yesterday, but he didn't expect it to fall into Qian Qing's eyes.
When Xu Zhen thought that Qian Qing was a famous iron rooster, he had to pluck his hair and squeeze out oil from the water, he immediately became cold and grey. It is said that Miss Qian could not only not pay money, but also ask the restaurant to pour money for her. He turned around and wanted to run away, but saw that Miss Qian was already blocking the road ahead. He felt ache in his heart and thought to himself: "There is no way, I can only lose money and avoid disaster..."
Kaifeng.
There are more and more bad news. First, it was reported that Liu Jingxiao came with hundreds of thousands of troops, and then Yang Linyi's 30,000 troops also showed signs of mutiny. Therefore, Yue Zhonglin was extremely popular as soon as he arrived in Kaifeng. Duke Li immediately held his hand and spoke kindly. Yue Zhonglin complained: "The troops are not well fed and fed, and the military pay has been owed for more than two years, and there are too many weapons. Many officers and soldiers are still wearing summer uniforms, and the excretion fee is only 3,000 yuan..."
Li Fu seemed to be awakened from a dream, and he kept saying, "Why don't I know... These guys are just bad things..."
Then there was a good show of killing Ma Ji with tears. The military officer went directly to the prison. Li Fu issued a 100,000 yuan commission for reissue, 10,000 sets of cotton coats and hats, 5,000 pairs of military shoes, and tens of thousands of ammunition... Li Du only had one request: "Go to Guide quickly..."
Outside Jinan City.
Looking at the team that had disbanded, Long Wenmei kept sighing. After finally waiting for Liu Jingxiao to fight with Henan, she had not been able to rush out of the city for many years. As a result, dozens of people had run away as soon as the troops left the city. The remaining troops also took two steps and three steps back. Even the officers couldn't fight. They said, "Brig Commander! Let's talk about it after the New Year!"
It's now the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, and everyone is thinking about spending the Spring Festival in Jinan. At this time, Long Wenmei remembered that the troops were stationed in Jinan for a year, and they usually start to enlarge the fake Spring Festival couplets at this time. Oh! Liu Jingxiao can still choose the time!
No matter how much you sigh, you still have to fight, but Long Wenmei felt that in her current state, she would run away even if she was pulled to the front line. Before leaving, Chen Ying kept praising: "The ancients said, "How could the Huns be a family before they were destroyed? The spirit of the Long Brigade Commander is really respectable..."
At this time, he remembered that Chen Ying was now living a comfortable life in Jinan. When he thought that Hong Bin and others were taking advantage of the Spring Festival to eat and drink, their energy disappeared. He shouted: "Go back! Let's have a good New Year in Jinan!"
In fact, Long Wenmei was not a match for Xiao Rulang and Xiao Maxiong when she brought the troops to Luzhong. Now Xiao Rulang has taken this opportunity to expand all the three infantry regiments in his hands into the 12th Company of the Third Battalion. In addition to Xiao Maxiong's two security brigades, Long Wenmei's attack this time is likely to be a meat bun to beat the dog.
But Xiao Rulang was not satisfied. At the moment, he was the only brigade in the main force in southern Shandong. It was his chance to show his prestige. Xiao Maxiong seemed to know his intentions and said, "Three regiments defended such a large area, which is definitely not enough. If there is a mistake, the division commander will definitely blame us!"
Xiao Rulang replied: "But the division commander only gave me two infantry regiments and one supplementary regiment. Even now, I have expanded the twelve companies in each regiment privately. Fortunately, I had some wealth before, otherwise I would not be able to solve the equipment of the troops..."
From Mobei to southern Shandong, each army has its own possessions outside the account. Xiao Rulang just wanted to make such a faita fact. At this time, what Xiao Maxiong said was really pleasant to Xiao Rulang: "It doesn't matter if there is no organization, it's important to defend such a large territory! There are three regiments, but now it's time for war, and you can set up a supplementary regiment..."
"Supplement regiment? This is a good idea! Where can I solve the equipment, funds, and soldiers?"
Xiao Maxiong had already had an idea: "The entire southern Shandong area is my management area. There is no problem with the soldiers. The funds can be solved by the local government. I am familiar with the county magistrates of each county. As for equipment, isn't your brigade responsible for the first reserve warehouse established by the division commander? It is said that you can equip a full division, and they are all replaced with stock weapons. The front-line troops are not used anyway, so I'm just taking it out! By the way, my two security brigades were transferred by the division commander to a most effective regiment. Now there are only six regiments left in total. I'm afraid Brother Xiao will help solve the weapon problem!"
Henan.Guide.
The 17th Division's marching speed can be said to be very fast. Ding Ning's cavalry has surpassed Guide and continued to advance. Some infantry have arrived in Guide and are making efforts to sweep the periphery. However, Guide City has high walls and there are thousands of defenders in the city. It may be difficult to open without artillery assistance.
The harsh climate affected the artillery's advance speed. Meng Dingguo nibbled the big apple he got from his mouth, and urged loudly: "Hurry up! If the division commander wants to chop my head, I will chop you all first..."
Thanks to Meng Dingguo's preparations in advance, he gathered all the mountain howitzers in the regiment together. After the infantry had chewed the fortifications on the periphery, he also arrived at the city of Guide with a battalion of mountain howitzers. Chen Ce was extremely happy and said repeatedly: "Captain Meng! Everyone is waiting for your cannon to help in the battle!"
Mengdingguo is an old artillery soldier and has great experience. He swallowed the remaining apples, cores and seeds, and said, "Where are fired at the fire? How many infantry are there? How many defensive facilities are there..."
He kept asking like a continuous cannon. Fortunately, Chen Ce was prepared and answered one by one. The defenders in Guide City had more than 5,000 people from different systems. Now there were more than 6,000 infantrymen under Guide City, which could not achieve a superior force. Fortunately, the 17th Division made full preparations, preparing to first feint attacks the four gates, and then concentrate their forces to attack the east gate.
Meng Dingguo immediately set off a cannon and bombarded the infantry on the city wall. Before the general attack, Chen Ce and Li Heyi sent envoys to persuade the defenders to surrender. The morale of the defenders was not high, but the general in charge replied politely: "I believe that you must understand, and I have to respectfully reject your proposal..."
The military envoy gave a military salute and replied: "I understand..."
At this moment, the attacking party received a lot of support, including six complete infantry companies, and the most important thing was that a company's six-pound long cannon arrived at the battlefield and unfolded.
Liu Jingxiao also went to the front line to command. After the two brigade commanders rushed to him to report the situation, Liu Jingxiao replied: "Do it well! I hope to hold a celebration banquet in Guide tonight..."
The two brigade commanders saluted together and turned around to launch a general attack. At this moment, a Liying also walked into the tent. The two brigade commanders bent down with a smile that even men could understand and slipped out quickly, saying, "Hello Dr. Chen..."
Liu Jingxiao saw Chen Xiuting holding a big bag of pills in her hand and said in a begging for mercy: "Today we are going to fight, can you take less medicine..."
"No...good medicine is bitter..."
"Obe obedient... I took the medicine..."
Liu Jingxiao now regrets bringing Dr. Chen to the front line. God knows that she has brought a bunch of pills. Liu Jingxiao is not afraid of going up to the sword and falling into the sea of fire, but she can't bear this sin. Dr. Chen's last sentence made Liu Jingxiao cry: "Listen to the doctor... I buy you candy at that time..."
At this time, the sound of cannons rumbled in Guide City. Seeing that the battle had officially started, Wu Canglei was relieved. At this moment, a fast horse rushed towards him, and Wu Canglei's heart tensed. When the cavalry saw the friendly troops here, they stopped and shouted: "Who is the commander?"
Wu Canglei quickly stood in front and said, "I am Deputy Commander Wu Canglei!"
