Guangdong.

Modi's face looked very bad. He had not stepped out of the room in the past half month. Instead, Yun Tian, ​​the director of the "Special Police Bureau", came to comfort his old boss every day. On this day, he came to persuade him again: "Sir, this is just a small setback, why bother to care?"

Mo Di snorted coldly and didn't say much. Yun Tian said: "Now the newspapers are still full of praise for the governor, so you don't have to care about this little setback."

Modi's face looked a little better. He pondered for a while: "I am thinking about the future of our southwest. Our Mo family has never lived past sixty years old for generations. I will be fifty-nine next year. I have to think about the future."

Yuntian continued to persuade: "Mr. Governor, you are in good health. I think you can marching in the mountains for a few days."

As soon as he said this, Mo Di immediately became excited: "That was that back then, I rushed back to Guangdong from Fujian and took the troops for six days. At that time, you were still a platoon leader. Although you are not physically strong now, it is still no problem to walk a hundred or eighty miles! Confrontation, have your brother's affairs arranged?"

"Thank you, the Governor for your concern that the troops in September have been placed. He also asked me to thank you. After all, over the years, only they have been directly included in the provincial military organization, and it was Liu Jingxiao who raised the protest."

Mo Di replied, "Don't pay attention to them. Your brother made such a great contribution this time. Not to mention a brigade commander, even a division commander would be considered small. Has Xiong Wu been placed in place?"

"It's also settled." This time it was a disaster for the miscellaneous Southern Army that Modi was hosting. The victims were extremely serious, and some troops could only be subordinated to the organization of other troops, but the organization was only half of the previous war.

Mo Di still has some feelings for these miscellaneous cards. When they rushed to the front line, they would suffer huge casualties as soon as they pulled up. What kind of spirit is this! This is the spirit of cannon fodder. We in Guangdong do not need strong soldiers with empty words. What we need is real troops, and what we play with is the feeling of blood coming from the sword!

However, the miscellaneous troops of the Southern Army were only about half of the pre-war period. Therefore, Mo Di accommodated the mutiny Zhejiang Army, Jiangxi Army and Fujian Civilian Army, and one unit of each of the Fujian Civilian Army, and also accommodated the Xiong Wushu Department who came to Sichuan. It is said that the Xiong Wu General was indifferent to three sentences: "I am the most obedient to the command of Commander Mo Fu."

As for the defense zone, after consultation with Ding Ning, Ding Ning agreed to use the three counties in southern Jiangxi and four counties in southern Fujian as the defense zones of the department. The garrison was responsible for the employment administration and taxation, but the condition for exchange was that the Liu army, Nanchang and Fuzhou, except for the provincial guard camps, the Liu army could send officers to form two battalions and another independent company to be responsible for the safety of the provincial capital and traffic line. However, Ding Ning proposed that the rebellious Zhejiang army could not be stationed in these defense zones, and the two sides are still negotiating.

Yuntian saw Modi's mood improved a lot, and he struck while the iron was hot, saying, "I heard that Liu Jingxiao also praised the Governor, saying that the great figure in the world was the only Governor except him."

"Is this really a matter?" Liu Jingxiao was able to frustrate Mo Di, so Mo Di had a high evaluation of him. As for his evaluation of himself, people always increase their investment layer by layer.

Yuntian replied: "It's true, it's published in the newspaper!"

"What newspaper? It's not the ones we made ourselves, right?"

"Mr. Governor, it's true! Is it published in the Republic Times in Shanghai?"

"Hurry! Come find me, I want to see it."

The next day, Yuntian indeed took a newspaper and handed it to Modi. Modi had read it and agreed with it, saying repeatedly: "This newspaper is so wonderful. It really means that it is much better than the shitty newspapers we have done!"

"In the future, it was really good for the Republic Times to get me a copy of this newspaper, especially these news. It really came to my heart."

Yuntian walked out of Modi's secret room. A young man jumped out and asked, "Have you done it?"

"It's done!" Yuntian's face was full of excitement: "Don't forget it then!"

"Guan Shanhe was once my subordinate, and I felt very sad that he betrayed me. And Sun Tingyu is your subordinate. His betrayal feels about you. I can feel that I am not ashamed to cooperate with those who betrayed me. I hope we can join forces." Chen Yunjie's letter was very colloquial, but it deeply infected Zhang Buyun. He finished reading the letter and said: "Chen Yunjie was once my enemy, but now I have decided to cooperate with Chen Yunjie to defeat the Republican Army in one fell swoop. Are you confident?"

The Republican army has reached hundreds of thousands, but since the Fengtian army and Guan army fought, they have indeed achieved great success, especially Lin Yichen took the lead and said: "I am willing to serve the Bu Zheng!"

The news that Chen Yunjie and Zhang Buyun joined forces immediately shocked the Shandong side, especially many generals, including Shandong Provincial Councillor Huang Yang, who ran to Liu Jingxiao and repeatedly said: "Shuai Liu, I am willing to drive the troops of the division as a pioneer and accept North China in one fell swoop."

Liu Jingxiao scolded in private conversation: "I am satisfied with such a big territory at the moment. Let's talk about it first."

With the failure of the Southern Northern Expedition, it was the consolidation of Liu Jingxiao's rule in the southeast. Even in Fujian and Jiangxi, nearly half of the counties were Liu Jingxiao's basic territory. Liu Jingxiao was concerned about the administration of the new territory at present. Ding Ning did not do badly in the south. Due to the successful destruction of the potential forces that have taken root in the south for many years, the administrative reconstruction of Wen and Taiwan was also relatively successful. Only Anhui is the issue that Liu Jingxiao is more worried about.

According to Liu Jingxiao's true thoughts in bed: "This year, we will not care about the affairs of other provinces for the time being. As long as we manage ourselves well, we have the basic territory of the seven southeastern provinces, where can we not go!"

But others are always jealous of the territory of the provinces in North China, especially the Baoda area, which is the essence of Northern China. Some intermediate officers even took the initiative to fight. Liu Jingxiao smiled and said: "The girls in Hebei are not tender enough. If we go to Jiangnan, we will also pick a few beauties in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

It was immediately circulating outside that Liu Jingxiao was going to Jiangnan to have a romantic life, and even the ladies were a little skeptical.

However, Liu Jingxiao's foresight was soon realized. Hundreds of thousands of Republican troops were soon at a failure in the north and south attacks. The betrayal of the old Imperial Guards and Duan Tiemin's rule gave Guan Shanhe the heaviest blow. If the Liu army was sent now, it would be very likely to directly fight against the Fengtian army. During Duan Tiemin's action in Beijing, Liu Jingxiao heard a person's name again - Xiao Rulang.

To be honest, Duan Tiemin and Xiao Rulang's rebellion can be described as "perfect". They absorbed many years of failed experience in rebelling against Liu Jingxiao. They took action quickly and ruthlessly. After tricking more than a dozen senior officers left by Guan Shanhe in the city to the Presidential Palace, Xiao Rulang immediately led the troops to kill these officers.

Duan Tiemin only had Xiao Rulang's guard brigade. Although he was known as the first brigade, his actual strength was only two infantry regiments with extremely poor soldiers and insufficient equipment, with a total of only more than 1,900 people.

But he found that he was defeated by the guard brigade, who had no choice but to follow Xiao Rulang to fight to the death. That night, the troops stationed in Guanshanhe in the city were disarmed.

This time, Xiao Rulang finally developed once. Although there were four or five thousand defenders in the city, there were less than two thousand combat troops. The rest of the troops were non-combat troops such as organs and logistics. In the absence of a leader, except for more than a thousand people fled in a hurry, the rest of the troops surrendered after a short battle. Some of the materials accumulated in Guanshanhe Village in Beijing were also returned to Xiao Rulang.

However, Guan Shanhe has always been not good at plundering and financial management. Although Beijing is his logistics headquarters, it has been plundered. Xiao Rulang could not capture more than 3,000 rifles and some supplies. As for the most critical cash, the headquarters behind Guanshan only had 270,000 banknotes and 100,000 yuan in cash, which can be said to be empty.

The Imperial Guard's rebellion was much more powerful. The Imperial Guard originally had three divisions. After stabbing Chen Yunjie in the back, he made another move, reorganizing his troops into the Second Republic Army, and later renamed the Third Republic Army, with six divisions in his troops.

In short, Guanshanhe uses people and deals with things, "individuals in Guanshanhe as the core and the Eleventh Division as the center". Only cadres from his 11th Division can be valued, and only the troops developed by his 11th Division can be treated well. As for other miscellaneous troops, Guanshanhe encourages them to carry forward Fan Zhongyan's great spirit, and all endure hardships before enjoying the future, worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later.

Although the Imperial Guards belong to the Republican Army system, Guan Shanhe regarded the Republican Army as his personal property. He tried every means to exclude the Imperial Guards. Even Mingmu had changed from the Second Republican Army to the Third Republican Army. As for military pay, equipment replenishment, supplies and other aspects, he tried every means to stuff his direct troops into his own troops. The Imperial Guards had not even issued cotton coats from last year.

After the expansion of the Imperial Guards, it once reached a huge scale of 120,000 to 130,000, but Guan Shanhe was jealous. In the name of the Republican Army headquarters, it forced six brigades and people and guns to be reorganized, and then stuffed them into four brigades developed by the 11th Division.

On the surface, it seemed to be a military exchange, but the Imperial Guards lost 50,000 guns at once. As for the four brigades sent by Guan Shanhe, they were indeed good troops, but these troops were simply to monitor the Imperial Guards. Therefore, the Imperial Guards were extremely dissatisfied, and Guan Shanhe still felt that it was not enough, so they appointed a large number of chiefs of staff and deputy division commanders to the Imperial Guards' divisions, brigades, and regiments commissioned by the Imperial Guards, which was actually the position of military supervisor.

After this change, coupled with the fact that the source of wages was not continued, the soldiers fled a lot, and the Imperial Guards were only 60,000 to 70,000 people left. However, it was a very terrifying thing that suddenly changed by 60,000 to 70,000 people. Guan Shanhe learned from Chen Yunjie's old wisdom and let the Imperial Guards go to the front line without sending a pay or a bullet. He wanted to make a profit. Unexpectedly, the Imperial Guards mutinied the halfway point, and not only swept Guan Shanhe at the rear station, but also disarmed the two brigades of Guan Shanhe.

Although Guan Shanhe lost more than 10,000 guns, after this, the morale of the army was in chaos. Lin Yichen's Second Army cut into the hinterland of the Guan army and evolved into Guan Shanhe's complete defeat.

The Fengtian army did not sell their best like Lin Yichen. As a result, Lin Yichen alone achieved fruitful results of victory. There were 60,000 prisoners, more than 40,000 rifles, 7,000 troops and horses and other military supplies. They even seized the 620,000 foreign foreign countries that Guanshanhe reluctantly used to pay military salaries. As for other brigades, the number was not large, especially Chen Sheng's troops, but the number was less than 3,000 people and guns were seized, and they even made a big fuss in front of Zhang Buyun.

Zhang Buyun was furious and slapped Chen Sheng in the face, cursing: "I got it after I sold my life, what are you?"

He immediately issued an order that all the soldiers and materials seized by Lin Yichen would be used by Lin's Second Army. In this way, the Second Army had a total of 110,000 troops, making it the army with the most soldiers and the most well-equipped troops in the Fengtian army.

In just over a month, Lin Yichen had transformed from the little officer who fled with a dressed monk to the commander of the Fengtian Army. The changes in the world were really unpredictable.

Guanshanhe rushed north in panic, and his troops were more than one ten, but the only drawback was that Chen Yunjie's attack had not been completely won. Although he had the reputation of the Third Division, the third was that the veterans of the Zhi army were mostly incorporated by the Fengtian army. These rebuilt troops were often some miscellaneous troops who fought repeatedly and had poor combat power. In this case, after three days of the battle with Guanshanhe, even though the Guanshanhe tribe lost more than 30,000, Chen Yunjie's troops also lost more than 30,000 people. In the end, due to the unfavorable situation, the Guan army fled in a panic through Nankou and repeatedly attacked the whole way, with more than one ten.

The overall situation has been decided, and the two sides will divide the territory of North China. The lessons about Guanshanhe are ahead. Zhang Buyun must grasp the military and political power of Hebei and Charesui. In desperation, Duan Tiemin specially appointed him as "General of North China and the Military and Civil Affairs of the Northeast Provinces, the Grand Marshal of the Army and Navy of the Anguo Army", which is not much different from the legendary "one word to shoulder the king".

With Lin Yichen's Second Army as the core, the Fengtian army entered the pass and reached nearly 150,000 troops, which was strong and powerful. The Imperial Guard immediately surrendered to the Fengtian army and was reorganized into the Sixth Army of the Anguo Army. In addition to the various miscellaneous brands included, there were nearly 300,000 Anguo Army stationed in Pingjin and Jire Chasui. It was a huge momentum. Zhang Buyun, who returned to Fengtian, specially appointed Lin Yichen as the governor of Hebei, and he led the Hebei army.

As for Duan Tiemin, Duan's signboard still needs to be played, but the benefits he shared were pitifully small, so he could only expand the original guard brigade into the Guard Army. The commander of the Guard Army was Xiao Rulang, who was in charge of two infantry brigades and a supplementary regiment. Xiao Rulang was also a brigade commander of the First Brigade with more guns and better equipment, and the other brigade commander was Lu Xinlan, appointed by Duan Tiemin.

Lu Xinlan is not an ordinary person. When Guide fought bloody battles, he was the commander of the Hubei army. He and Liu Jingxiao were killed in Guide and were idle for many years outside the country. Now he is here to join Duan Tiemin. Duan Tiemin felt many years of love and immediately appointed him as the commander of the Second Brigade of the Guards.
