Chapter 113

Fang Jianxiong's reaction was so fast, it was expected. After all, after Xuzhou was captured, Bengbu was not safe. Yuan Shikai thought he had the upper hand, so he was not afraid of Fang Jianxiong's counterattack for a while. Besides, now that he had enough troops and food, he would have to fight sooner or later.

Since a battle cannot be avoided, it must be fought. After Fang Jianxiong received electricity, Guangdong announced a revolution. This was nothing. Guangdong was originally the home base of the Democratic Party. It was a reasonable thing. According to the original plan, Lu Rongting of Guangxi would meet

To send troops to Guangdong, Yuan Shikai gave one million silver dollars for this matter. Hu Jingyi of Sichuan, Tang Jiyao of Guizhou, and Yan Xishan of Shaanxi also gave half a million silver dollars each. These people also called to express their allegiance to Beijing.

Yunnan's Cai E has a teacher like Liang Qichao in Beijing, so Yuan Shikai is not worried and should not oppose him.

The original plan was not bad, but unexpectedly Lu Rongting and Hu Jingyi, who had received the money, actually followed Fang Jianxiong and turned against Yuan. This made old Yuan very angry, especially Hu Jingyi, who sent the most flattering telegram to Beijing some time ago.

, vowed to express his loyalty. Lao Yuan felt that the Sichuan army was not capable of fighting, so giving him 500,000 yuan was not as much as what he gave Lu Rongting. The reason why he gave Lu Rongting an extra 500,000 yuan was because he expected him to keep an eye on Guangdong.

The most angry person was Long Jiguang. This guy also received money, two million silver dollars. He obviously had two divisions and one brigade, a strong force, but he followed the Guangdong Democratic Party to electrify. Old Yuan was so angry that he wanted to curse,

These bastards took the money, and not a single person turned on the phone to support Lao Yuan. Cai E of Yunnan called for a peaceful settlement of disputes, and Tang Jiyao of Guizhou followed in singing the high tone of peace. Yan Xishan of Shaanxi also followed suit and called for peace. In fact, Yuan Shikai did not

Count on him. This guy is now busy stabilizing the interior of Shaanxi. Chen Shufan and Wen Shouquan have hooked up, and Yan Xishan is leading his troops to confront them.

In Fujian, the Governor-General Sun Daoren was surrounded by troops sent by Xu Chongzhi and was forced to send a telegram to announce his rebellion against Yuan. This man was nothing but a loser and could not be counted on.

The above-mentioned things were not enough to make Yuan Shikai smash his beloved teacup. The incident that made old Yuan smash the teacup happened in Xuzhou. The Eighth Division, the self-proclaimed second division of Chen Zhiji's militia, actually mutinied.

One of the two brigade commanders under Chen Zhiji was named He Haiming. Historically, he was the first division commander in Jiangsu. This time and space was under Chen Zhiji. As in history, Chen Zhiji was first placed under house arrest by He Haiming. Zhang Xun entered Xuzhou, and Chen Zhiji thought that everything was fine, so he went

Jinan met my father-in-law. As a result, the guarding soldiers were released by He Haiming that night, and a brigade of Hunan soldiers led by He Haiming launched a surprise attack.

It's a pity that He Haiming's troops were too small. After a night of melee, he lost to Zhang Xun's Xuzhou. He led four to five thousand people to fight out of Xuzhou and fled to Bengbu. Fang Jianxiong didn't know about this yet, but Yuan Shikai knew about it first. Because of this, Xuzhou took the

The joy value below dropped sharply.

Yuan Shikai was anxious to think of countermeasures and immediately telegraphed Feng Guozhang, asking him to take advantage of Fang Ni's lack of preparation and immediately go south to Bengbu. Unexpectedly, Feng Guozhang called back. After Zhang Xun captured Xuzhou, he refused to continue south and said he would take a period of rest. Jiang Gui's question was also the same.

, refused to go south or leave Xuzhou.

Lao Yuan finally couldn't stand it anymore. He picked up the teacup angrily and threw it. After throwing the teacup, Yuan Shikai was relieved and ordered Feng Guozhang to lead the Beiyang Army south to Bengbu as soon as possible. He must take Bengbu before Fang Jianxiong was not fully prepared.

Beiyang's intelligence was obviously not good. Until now, Yuan Shikai thought that Bengbu only had one division of troops. Feng Guozhang was not confused. He had suffered losses before, so he naturally refused to go south easily. After receiving the order, he called back and said: Fang Jianxiong was a master of military art in the world. He had thought about it long ago.

Be prepared not to go south easily and wait for Chen Huan to arrive.

After returning the call, Feng Guozhang ordered reconnaissance cavalry to go out in all directions to find out the military deployment of the National Defense Forces as soon as possible.

The 3rd and 4th Divisions of the National Defense Force were still on the way, so Fang Jianxiong naturally adopted prudent tactics. Zhang Xiaohuai set off urgently to Bengbu to help command the battle. Of course, everyone was assured of Fang Jianxiong's military capabilities.

The commanders of each army returned to their troops respectively. As soon as Huyan Aobo arrived in Suxian, he received news from the front that some officers and soldiers of the First Division of the People's Army rushed out of Xuzhou, and many more soldiers ran out of Xuzhou one after another, all of them were people's army.

The defeated troops in Suxian County gathered nearly 10,000 people.

Huyan Aobo was shocked and quickly met He Haiming. This was an official who had served in Wang Jingwei's puppet government in history. He had no chance in this time and space. Historically, He Haiming led the Hunan Army's children to fight very impressively in Nanjing during the second revolution.

, can be regarded as the only highlight of the second revolution. This time, the history is surprisingly similar, but the place has been changed. They were also under house arrest. They also mutinied after Chen Zhiji left, and they were also defeated. But this time He Haiming brought the troops out for a small battle.

Five thousand people, seeing the civilian army that had previously fled from Xuzhou to Suxian, became interested.

After entering Huyan Aobo's headquarters, He Haiming took the initiative to salute. Huyan Aobo asked for news about Xuzhou. He Haiming told what he knew, and then offered to hand over the previously defeated troops to him. Huyan Aobo looked a little weird after hearing this.

.

"I can't make the decision on this. You go to Bengbu and see the commander-in-chief first." Huyan Aobo gave him a soft thumb. He Haiming was somewhat unwilling to accept it, but he was on human territory, so he had no choice but to leave his troops and go to Bengbu to see Fang Jianxiong in person.

Huyan Aobo enthusiastically sent his own guard company to "escort" He Haiming south, and attached a letter to Marshal Fang.

The content of this letter is only one, focusing on He Haiming's previous defeat. Fang Jianxiong read this letter first before meeting He Haiming. After reading it, he couldn't help but sigh. He Haiming's ambition is not an exception, but a trend of the entire era.

Product. Because the central government lacks control over local governments, it is natural that some people below will want to separatist regimes. This kind of thing is normal in Chinese history. In the final analysis, it is still a problem of perfect system construction. How to build a good system, Fang Jianxiong is not sure

Understand, it’s like crossing the river by feeling the stones. It’s hard to say whether this Western democratic system is good or not. It’s not like Fang Jianxiong couldn’t see how bad countries like the Philippines and India are in another time and space.

After putting down the letter, Fang Jianxiong asked someone to invite He Haiming. This Hunanese was still a bloody man in this era. Besides, Fang Jianxiong didn't know that he had committed traitorous activities in another history. Based on the fact that this person could be in Xuzhou

With the ability to kill tens of thousands of troops, I think this person can be put to use.

He Haiming's move to ask for troops was not very ambitious. He was just thinking about how to get more capital from the Nanjing government. As everyone knows, Fang Jianxiong is expanding the army and is short of troops. Being a soldier in this era is not what it is.

Good job. Recruitment is very difficult during the expansion of the army. With these few 10,000 people brought to Wuhu, two shelf divisions will be filled.

When He Haiming came in, Fang Jianxiong was sitting behind the desk, holding a document in his hand and reading it. This is the material that the Military Intelligence Bureau found in the shortest possible time. Basically, the Military Intelligence Bureau is at the level of brigade commander in all the armies in the country.

There are information files.

"He Haiming has seen Fu Shuai!" Facing Fang Jianxiong's impressive reputation, He Haiming didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

Fang Jianxiong raised his head with an expressionless face and glanced at He Haiming. He was a not very tall man. He was twenty-four or five years old. He was standing there very energetic. "He Haiming, whose courtesy name is Yiyan, is from Hengyang, Hunan Province. He was a former employee of Hankou

The chief of staff of the military government followed Huang Keqiang to Nanjing. I want to know why you didn't stay in Hankou in the first place?" Fang Jianxiong spoke slowly, staring at him intently.

He Haiming was somewhat nervous. This person was indeed talented and learned. Although he had never studied abroad, he was one of the representatives of the Mandarin Duck and Butterfly School in the history of the Republic of China. He couldn't figure out how Fang Jianxiong would arrange himself, and He Haiming was somewhat discouraged by the pressure.

Fang Jianxiong does not have the so-called eagerness for talents, which may be related to the fact that he has no experience of studying abroad.

"I was a good friend of Huang Keqiang when I was a teenager. Later he went to Japan and I joined the New Army." He Haiming told the truth, and the meaning was very clear. He followed Huang Xing, and his future was guaranteed. If he stayed in Wuhan, who would have known that he

Who is it? Besides, Hankou was once captured. What can the defeated general say? Although the responsibility does not lie with him.

"I heard that you consider yourself a Hubei native. Let's do this. You go to Wuhu University for three months to study the tactics of our army. If you successfully graduate, I will appoint you as the commander of the 16th Division and your station will be in Hankou." Fang Jianxiong said.

He lowered his head, picked up a pen and paper, and started writing. He Haiming was dumbfounded and stared blankly at Fang Jianxiong without speaking. He thought he had heard wrong, how could such a good thing happen? As everyone knows, Fang Jianxiong's move was still

It's quite meaningful. Now that he is cooperating with the Democratic Party, Fang Jianxiong wants the generals of the Democratic Party to see what kind of treatment they will get if they join the National Defense Forces.

After finishing writing, Fang Jianxiong raised his head and knocked on the table. He Haiming, who was still in a daze, woke up. "Fu Shuai!"

"Take the letter of introduction and I will ask someone to take you to Wuhu. I hope you can understand that you are not the only one who needs to study. People like Leng Yu, Tang Zhidao, and Lin Huaichuan also went to mainland China to study before taking up their posts.

actual duties."

"Understood!" He Haiming quickly stood up and expressed his stance, secretly biting the tip of his tongue. He really wasn't dreaming.

Being a division commander in the National Defense Force is like a dream. Fang Jianxiong is indeed short of senior officers at the moment, so he can only be used temporarily. As for the students in the training team, they will have to be picked out one by one sooner or later. The National Defense Force needs at least one hundred

Wan, I'm not afraid that I won't have room to arrange those direct descendants.

He Haiming was led out and announced at the door that Sun Baoqi was here. Old Sun was very good at being a man, and he could distinguish himself clearly in front of everyone. At Fang Jianxiong's headquarters, he had to announce every time he came. (To be continued.
