Chapter 266
After hearing this, Xiang Xinrong smiled slightly and said, "General Lin is too humble. You have entered the ridge with 800 Hebei and Shandong soldiers. Now you have commanded more than 10,000 troops and are lying in the north of the Yangtze River."
"Even the governor of Lingnan He Taikang, he would not dare to go along with you."
"Liu Wanyi of the 34th Division of Western Hubei can also be called a direct general. In front of you, he couldn't resist it for a single round."
"Your reputation has been spread to Guangdong and Guangxi!"
After hearing this, Lin Hongfei couldn't help but mutter in his heart, but he didn't expect that I was so awesome now!
However, on the surface, he still looked modest: "Mr. Xiang is too much, Hongfei is ashamed of being accused!"
"I deserve it, I deserve it!" Xiang Xinrong said quickly.
The two of them were just clichés, and Lin Hongfei didn't ask Xiang Xinrong what the purpose of coming to Jiangbei was.
However, although he didn't ask, Lin Hongfei also knew that Xiang Xinrong came to find him, just to win him over.
At this time, Xiang Xinrong couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Seeing Lin Hongfei keeping around, he asked directly: "General Lin, I have a question to ask you!"
Lin Hongfei smiled and said, "Please speak with Special Envoy Xiang."
Xiang Xinrong said, "In the view of General Lin, who can save the country in this era?"
Lin Hongfei knew that the other party's highlight was coming, but he still pretended to be thinking: "Well, I think about it..."
"If you ask who can save the country, now Zhili holds the highest authority in the country. Zhili General Cao is good at winning the hearts of the people, and all the generals under his command are convinced. General Cao can save the country!"
Xiang Xinrong shook his head and said, "Although Cao Zhongshan is loyal and honest, he has no ability to know the power of others. He cannot save the country!"
Lin Hongfei said again: "The Fengtian General Zhang is in charge of the three northeastern provinces and has many elite soldiers and generals. Zheng Zhang can save the country!"
Xiang Xinrong retorted again: "Although Zhang Yuting has great talents, he has had too close contact with Japanese people, which is like walking on the tip of a knife and passing through a steel wire. In the future, he will definitely be harmed by Japanese people. This person cannot save the country!"
Lin Hongfei heard the more he felt that it was so similar to the green plum wine!
However, he was too lazy to complain, but asked directly: "When I saw the Special Envoy Xiang, who can save the country?"
Xiang Xinrong straightened his body and said righteously: "The one who can save the country today is Mr. Yixian!"
Immediately, Xiang Xinrong told Lin Hongfei about all the actions of Mr. Yixian over the years.
Lin Hongfei naturally knew about Mr. Yixian's life, so from time to time, he could also give Xiang Xinrong a message and a show, which made Xiang Xinrong overjoyed.
Lin Hongfei guessed correctly. Xiang Xinrong came to Jiangbei this time to win over this military and political star who has made his mark in China.
One of the big reasons why Lin Hongfei was chosen is that Lin Hongfei was too young and should not have been infected by the bad habits within the warlords. He would not be short-sighted and stared at the acre of three-point land below him. He did not care about the changes in the domestic and foreign situations.
Lin Hongfei is so familiar with Mr. Yixian’s experience, so he must have learned it specifically. Xiang Xinrong thinks that even if Lin Hongfei is not a admirer of Mr. Yixian, he at least he is biased towards Mr. Yixian!
So, Xiang Xinrong expressed the real purpose of this trip: "In today's country, warlords only know how to fight each other and are indifferent to the country's decline to such a situation!"
"But Mr. Yixian is different. He really wants to save the country, so that our country will no longer be bullied by foreigners, and that the people in the country will live a peaceful life."
"This road to saving the country is not easy to walk!"
“It requires more and more people of insight to join in.”
"General Lin, before I came, I also learned about the situation in Jiangbei. After you came to Jiangbei, you have never levyed a heavy tax."
"Instead, we concentrate on developing industries, popularizing education, and under the rule, the people are well-fed and well-off, and live and work in peace and contentment."
"What you did coincide with Mr. Yixian's philosophy of saving the country!"
"So, I beg General Lin to join Mr. Yixian's cause of saving the country."
Hearing this, Lin Hongfei looked at Xiang Xinrong with a passionate and generous look on his face. He did not rush to reply, but pondered for a moment and said slowly:
"Although I have never seen Mr. Yixian, I, Lin Hongfei, have always admired him very much and have been with him for a long time."
"Mr. Yixian can send you to me. This is because I respect Lin Hongfei. I thanked me here."
"only····"
Lin Hongfei paused, Xiang Xinrong's face changed slightly, and he quickly asked, "What's it just?"
Lin Hongfei did not hide it and said directly: "I believe that before Special Envoy Xiang came, he must have investigated my life."
"My grandfather was from Beiyang. I also graduated from Baoding Military Academy. After that, I joined the Anhui faction. Under the care of the Anhui general and the former chief of the Internal Affairs Minister Qian Minghe, I came here to Lingnan to work hard."
"At the beginning, I once became a rising star in the Anhui clan!"
"Later, I married the niece of Yushuai, who was the niece of his family and became his niece."
"If it weren't for their help, how could I, Lin Hongfei, have achieved what I have today?"
"so···"
Before Lin Hongfei finished speaking, Xiang Xinrong's face was relaxed and he smiled and said, "General Lin, don't say much, I understand what you mean."
"So, I am not here this time to let General Lin publicly announce his follower of Mr. Yixian."
"But I hope General Lin can secretly support Mr. Yixian. When Mr. Yixian integrates the Guangdong-Guangdong region and leads the Guangdong-Guangdong soldiers to the north, he can raise the flag to follow him!"
When Lin Hongfei heard this, he was not in a hurry to reply, but said, "Please allow me to think about it. You go down and rest first, and I will give you a reply tomorrow!"
Xiang Xinrong nodded: "Okay, then I will say goodbye first."
"However, I still hope that General Lin can stand on our side and contribute to the cause of saving the country!"
Watching Xiang Xinrong leave, Lin Hongfei sat back on the seat, walked in outside the room, and saw Chu Liangyi's expression, he had been listening outside for a long time.
Lin Hongfei raised his head and looked at Chu Liangyi: "You have heard everything Xiang Xinrong said just now!"
Chu Liangyi nodded: "I heard it clearly, Guangdong Province wants to recruit you."
“What were you planning?”
Lin Hongfei sighed and said, "Shistor Yu has been kind to me. If I betray him, my conscience will be uneasy!"
"But, I'm sure that Mr. Yixian will be able to control the overall situation in five years."
"We have to make plans early!"
Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei looked up at Chu Liangyi: "Liangyi, put down everything you have at hand, go to Guangdong Province with Xiang Xinrong to visit Mr. Yixian."
"At that time, if Mr. Yixian needs money, food and weapons, remember to send me the amount."
"Let's bet in advance first!"
