At that time, the situation in Henan was very complicated. The remaining troops of Zhensong Army were located in southwestern Henan and southeastern Shaanxi, preparing to set off again. Cheng Yune occupied Guangshan and Gushi area, claiming to be 100,000. Chen Yunjie sent troops to attack from Hubei to the north. The troops in northern Henan obeyed the Second Republican Army in name, but actually had other ambitions. Henan organized Red Gun Associations and militia groups to build villages and defend themselves. Yue Zhonglin once transferred Shaanxi troops to Zhengzhou in full, and Shaanxi Military Affairs Supervisor Li Hu also came to help Yue with all his strength.

At that time, the Second Republic Army had more than 100,000 troops, all concentrated in Zhengluo. If Yue Zhonglin could make timely decisions, command appropriately, unite the morale of the army, and inspire morale, no matter the offense and defense, the number of victory or defeat was still unmatched. Unfortunately, Yue Zhonglin was shocked by the failures of the two southeastern routes, and was confused by the local teams in Henan, the Red Gun Club and other places, and the people were not cooperating, which made them frightened and unable to decide.

After withdrawing from Zhengzhou, an emergency military meeting was held in Luoyang. The generals quarreled over the issue of retreating west or north. After a few days, they still had a dispute. During this period, because the discipline of the Second Republican Army was too bad, the people of Henan held a grudge. Some people took the opportunity to incite, saying that the Henan people were going to take revenge on the Shaanxi army, which led to the army's support.

Finally, Li Hu, who brought troops from Shaanxi to help Yue Zhonglin, strongly advocated retreating to Shaanxi and then recovering. He believed that although the Second Republic Army had more than 200,000 people, there were only more than 20,000 troops, and there was no problem with the elite forces of the Second Army to open a path.

Li Hu was originally the military supervisor of Shaanxi. He brought troops to help Yue Zhonglin. He spoke with all his words and finally decided to retreat to Shaanxi. However, the generals' will was still like this, not to mention that the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers had no fighting spirit.

The train Yue Zhonglin took was just arriving at Luoyang East Station and was set on fire by the red gun. For a moment, the order was in chaos, ammunition exploded, and gunfire sounds were everywhere. In addition, the army was chasing and intercepting the enemy, which was a disintegration and the army had no fighting spirit.

More than 100,000 troops flocked to the west, just like Yang Linyi was defeated by Zhensong Army. Zhensong Army was defeated all the way, and the troops lost contact with each other and lost control. However, what is even more difficult is that they were attacked by local militia and Red Gun Society everywhere, and the people were determined to avoid the clearance of the country, so the intelligence was blocked and the army was struggling to eat, resulting in many collapses, and the military and civilians killed and injured everywhere.

The remaining troops of Zhensong Army gathered on the line of Ankang and Baihe, but no one obeyed each other. Finally, they invited Liu Huazhen, the former commander who was the Yougong in Tianjin. As soon as Liu Huazhen came to each department, they expressed their obedience. The main force went out to Jingzi Pass to attack Shaanxi and Ling. Another unit attacked Zhengzhou from Baihe through Nanyang. The Nanyang guards automatically handed over their troops for reorganization. The army was progressing very smoothly.

Liuhua Town, on the other hand, entered Guoluo Town to command, sent a division to seize Tongguan, sweep away the remaining Shaanxi army, and opened a route to support southern Shanxi (Yan Donghai transported a lot of grenades and other military supplies from southern Shanxi).

When Liuhua Town’s troops arrived in Tongguan, a few Shaanxi troops had already heard of the news. Another group of old He Kexing came from Dali to join the affiliation. Liuhua Town commanded the departments to a total of more than 15,000 people. They immediately built solid fortifications in the southeast highland of Hanguguan. Zhang Longfan’s delegation defended Hanguguan, preparing to face Yue Zhonglin.

Li Hu led his troops to Hangu Pass, and Yue Zhonglin led his main force to Shanzhou with 30,000 to 40,000 people. He was out of food and fodder along the way, and was intercepted by the Red Gun Association and local force along the way. When the army arrived in Shanzhou, it had lost 30,000 to 40,000 people. Zhensong Army blocked Hangu Pass and the intersections south of the road. It was said that there were pursuers behind and strong enemies in front.

The terrain of Hangu Pass was critical, and the road to Shaanxi was blocked. Yue Zhonglin had no choice but to mobilize a brigade's elite and concentrated his firepower to adopt a intensive charge tactic. They were all defeated by Zhensong Army. The second time, the Shaanxi Army used a division of troops to attack the left wing of Zhensong Army, and only occupied several small villages at dusk. The Song Army in Zhensong Army succeeded in counterattacking at dawn. Not only did it regain the lost land, but it also pursued several miles away.

Yue Zhonglin launched a continuous attack again, and the two sides fought fiercely for five days and nights, especially for Hutouyan for the longest time. Although they had tried to pass the pass after many fierce attacks, they finally had a desire to return home, but the army had no heroes, and they were unable to open the road, causing exhaustion of troops and ammunition, the soldiers had no intention of fighting, the army had no food and fodder, and it was difficult to advance and retreat. There was Liuhua Town Division in the west, Xu Yingjie's division in Luoyang in the east, the Red Gun Association in the south, and the Yellow River in the north, and it was difficult to fly without danger.

Yue Zhonglin had no choice but to send representatives to negotiate to express his willingness to hand over all the guns. Liu Huazhen ordered more than 80,000 remnants of the Second Republic Army of the Republic to gather in Shaanxi to hand over the guns, and held a meeting of officers above the brigade commander in Guoluo Town. Liu Huazhen said: "The enemy's 80,000 people have decided to surrender. Now we are ordering the enemy how to hand over and how to collect guns with our army. When the enemy hand over the guns, our troops are not allowed to snatch guns. They are confiscated by each unit, and will be distributed by the headquarters afterwards."

At that time, the brigade commanders of each division expressed their agreement, but at this time, more than 80,000 remnants of the Second Republic Army were concentrated in Shanzhou, with Xu, Zhang and Wansan Brigades stationed in Shanzhou, and the water towers were close to the water, which was very convenient to confiscate.

Therefore, all the ministries doubt whether the order of Liuhua Town's "confiscation on the spot and distribution" can be fulfilled. For example, Zhang Longfan, who made the first contribution this time, said to the superior brigade commander Yu Ming General: "The order of the supervisor may not be realized. I am afraid that whoever grabs it will count for him!"

Yuming General agreed and immediately planned to lead Zhang Longfan to Shanzhou to grab the gun the next day. That night, Yuming General asked the superior division commander Wang Zhen again. Wang disagreed, but the next day, Zhang Longfan still led two companies to the Shanzhou camp. As soon as he arrived at Qiaozikou, he felt something was wrong.

Qiaozikou was the joint agreed upon by both sides. The three brigade commanders Xu, Zhang and Wan were all there, and each army went down to grab guns and seized them indiscriminately. The situation was in chaos. Liu Huazhen's younger brother was also there, but he could not control the situation.

Zhang Longfan's two company had not arrived yet, and there were only more than 20 guards around him. He quickly went down to grab the gun. He rode his horse and ordered a brigade of the Shaanxi Army to follow him. He arrived at a small hotel outside Shanzhou Pass. He ordered the enemy to enter from the front door and come out of the back door, and put all the guns in the hotel courtyard. In this way, he finally got four thousand guns.

Yue Zhonglin's guard battalion had hundreds of people, which were carefully established by Yang Linyi back then. There were hundreds of horses and were well-equipped and asked people to inspect them. As a result, the three brigade commanders fought to confiscate them, resulting in a conflict.

At that time, there were a lot of armed guns, ammunition and military supplies everywhere in Shanzhou City. Units of all sizes were collecting guns crazily, and they ignored the enemy's bare hands.

The result of robbing guns was that Zhang Lu got 30,000, Xu Lu got 20,000, Ten Thousand Troops got more than 10,000, Zhang Longfan got 4,000 powers, and the rest of the troops received very few guns.

It is the most difficult to spit out the things in his hands. Since the gun grabbing has been completed, no one will listen to the unified order assigned by Liu Huazhen. The troops who got the gun were naturally happy. The troops who couldn't get the gun were very dissatisfied. Liu Huazhen's persuasion was ineffective, and he could only say angrily: "We'll stop doing it, let's go back to Tianjin!"

Finally, the troops who had grabbed a lot of guns took out three thousand expenses to allocate them, which was the meaning of the meaning.

As for the Shaanxi general, Li Hu shaved his head and disguised himself as a monk and scurried back to Shaanxi through Hangu Pass. Yue Zhonglin secretly crossed the Yellow River, but was captured by the Jin army and became a prisoner. Unfortunately, the army of more than 100,000 that Yang Linyi had worked hard to defeat Yue Zhonglin within a few months.

In this battle, the Zhensong Army fought over 100,000 Shaanxi troops with 20,000 troops, confiscated more than 70,000 new and old guns, and contained many boxes of rifles and pistols that had not been opened, as well as four new heavy artillery pieces. It was a great victory, but because of the victory, the internal contradictions were greater, and each of them was in charge and expanded their strength. Liu Huazhen was in fact unable to command at all.

If he could take advantage of the victory to enter Shaanxi after the war, and with the support of Ma Laojiu's troops in Dali, he could naturally drive in. At that time, Xi'an had only two companies of defenders. However, the strength of Zhensong Army suddenly expanded and the military pay was very difficult, so Chen Yunjie was naturally unable to provide assistance. Before the war, Yan Donghai, Shanxi, gave a few old-style "can cannons", which were very bulky and had a close range, but were quite powerful. He ate the "can rice" given by the people. The officers and soldiers all sarcastically said: "Use cannons and eat cannons!"

The generals of Zhensong Army quarreled all day long, asking for guns, wages, and territory. Liuhua Town was unable to deal with it. In order to raise military funds, they went to Shanxi to find Yan Donghai for more than 20 days, but there was no result. They had to come back and rectify the troops a little, prepare to advance to Gansu and Shaanxi, and promised several governors, military commanders, and guards.

Liu Huazhen estimated that Li Hu and Yang Changjiu, who were left behind in Xi'an, had always been disagreement and it was difficult to unite. They had only three or four thousand people together, and they had to cross with one blow. There was no problem in occupying Xi'an. Therefore, the march was slow. Dali Ma Laojiu volunteered to attack Xi'an and said he was absolutely sure. Liu Huazhen felt that Ma Laojiu had captured Xi'an and had the first contribution. It was difficult to deal with it afterwards. He ordered Ma Jiu to trap on the spot and sent people to Hankou to buy 200 foreign saddles, preparing to show off his style when Xi'an entered the city. When he approached Xi'an, he realized that the Shaanxi army seemed to have made some preparations to defend the city.

Statistics Bureau of Military Horse Statistics, headquarters of the coalition forces of Jinan and Southeastern provinces.

Seeing the information in his hand, Director Xiong's face turned pale. He looked at several business managers under his hand and asked, "Can this news be confirmed?"

The person involved shook his head and said, "It cannot be verified, but it has a certain credibility!"

Director Xiong couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up suddenly: "This kind of thing must be clear! From today on, Xiao Fang, your department will be responsible for this work. I will transfer our best cadres to you, asking for money and things. We must not be passive in this regard. If this information is true, the entire situation of the republic will change greatly..."

After a while of silence, Bureau Xiong said, "This information is probably not something that our family can confirm. I'm notified the other two companies and come together..."

Fierce wind.Tokyo.

Aimizu Saburo looked at the stack of information on his hand. Although his face had no change, his hands were shaking constantly, and he only said one sentence: "The situation in Northern China will change greatly... What impact will this have on the empire's hegemony? Guan Shanhe... and..."

Liu Jingxiao was not sure about the importance of this information. He was walking in the sunset with Ji Yunmeng.

The park has a good view, pools, rockery, tables and chairs, and couples...

Liu Jingxiao's mood is always very good at this moment. Although she is wearing a large windbreaker, Ji Yunchu feels very good when she snuggles by her side, especially Ji Yunmeng mutters: "When will you have to give birth to a handsome child for Jingxiao..."

But after walking about 180 steps, someone suddenly shouted: "Uncle Liu... it's really you..."

Liu Jingxiao asked angrily: "You are walking! What are you two sisters doing?"

Ding Jing replied: "At least you have to add a few clothes... My sister and I came out together. By the way, Meng'er, where did you buy this clothes..."

Ding Ning smiled and said, "It's rare to take a few days off, but Xiaojing must ask me to come out for a walk! Teacher, you can't do this!"

She swept around and said, "I don't even bring a guard, so I need to pay attention..."

Liu Jingxiao said openly: "Meng'er and I come out together to say something to the point of silence... It's rare once a month!"

Ji Meng'er blushed and said, "Jingxiao, this is your problem! You promised me to come out every day, but I regret it..."

"Okay OK! I'm afraid of you! Ask Ding Ning, I'll try my best to take time to accompany you!"

"Meng'er, do you want to buy clothes together... Just let Uncle Liu take it..." Ding Jing smiled like a flower, but the next moment, Liu Jingxiao's expression changed.

Seeing a group of vendors opposite suddenly tearing their disguise and taking out their revolver, Liu Jingxiao's expression changed, and his words said, "Bang! Bang! Bang!", the gunshots had already passed through his ears, and then they felt a pain in their body, and the bullet hit him.

Ding Jing screamed in shock: "It's an assassin! God..."

As a cavalry officer, Ding Ning was quite qualified. He carried two revolver guns at his hand and quickly pulled them out. While dodging a stone beside him, he shot at the assassin and injured the two assassins.

Liu Jingxiao reacted immediately, hugged Ji Meng'er and ran to the left, pulling his gun while running. Fortunately, they were all long shots and the hit rate was not high. Liu Jingxiao was only shot and shouted in pain.

There were about a dozen assassins on the opposite side, all holding revolvers, but their military qualities were not strong. After encountering unexpected resistance during the assassination, especially after Ding Ning's magic gun killed their leader, they stood there and shot from a distance.

The whole park was in chaos. Ding Jing let out a thunderous cry and she was shot. Ding Ning was in a bad condition. No matter how high her shooting level was, she was still shot.

Huanmeng'er was scared and Liu Jingxiao laughed and said, "Meng'er, it's safer to lean on my back..." Ji Meng'er then felt that Liu Jingxiao's back seemed to be warm and reliable.

At this time, the assassin finally reorganized and was about to rush up again.
