Chapter 203 Cai Naihuang's Report
Chapter 203 Cai Naihuang’s report
Cai Naihuang didn't stay in Shaoguan for several hours. After leaving the headquarters, he got on the boat and returned to Yunfu.
He was indeed very angry at first, but after getting on the ship, he gradually calmed down. Although Wu Shaoting's mission failed this time, he collected important information for Long Jiguang, which is believed to be a matter of making up for his merits.
After Cai Naihuang left Shaoguan, Wu Shaoting returned to the commander's room with a calm expression.
Several officers working in the commando office were very strange about Wu Shaoting's attitude. They had heard that the president had collapsed with the representatives of the Twenty-Three Towns. Why did the president look like nothing now? Did the president deliberately break down?
At this time, He Fuguang walked in from outside the door and came directly to Wu Shaoting.
Wu Shaoting sat behind a long table, which was a strategic convention table, and there was a map on top of the end.
"President." He Fuguang greeted him.
"Sit down." Wu Shaoting responded in vain, staring at the map not far away to think about a problem.
He Fuguang pulled open the chair and sat down, then said bluntly: "President, are you planning to stalemate with the Twenty-Three Towns?"
Wu Shaoting smiled and said, "Apart from that, do you have any better suggestions?"
He Fuguang did not accompany Wu Shaoting to see Cai Naihuang just now, but after hearing that Wu Shaoting turned against Cai Naihuang for a few words, he immediately guessed the intention. He could see that Wu Shaoting grasped the current situation in Guangdong Province very carefully, and the twenty-three towns moved from Guangxi to Guangdong in a high-profile manner. Although the Guangzhou government was very worried, Wu Shaoting knew each other's strength well, so he was not afraid of Long Jiguang's courage.
Obviously, Wu Shaoting drove Cai Naihuang away because he was unwilling to blackmail the revolutionary government in the twenty-three towns! Even if Wu Shaoting turned against him, Long Jiguang would not dare to do anything.
"The president does this, it is indeed the only way. However, staying in Guangdong is really a hidden danger. I wonder what the president has next?" He Fuguang asked.
"Let Long Jiguang stay like this first. If there was a way, I would have attacked him long ago." Wu Shaoting said slowly.
He Fuguang remained silent. He was also thinking about a question, that is, what would the situation in the end if he continued to be in such a stalemate?
Wu Shaoting glanced at He Fuguang and asked, "Chongshi, do you have anything to say?"
He Fuguang nodded, sighed, and said, "Actually, I have an idea. Maybe we can find a way to lure Long Jiguang into Guangzhou to put under house arrest."
Wu Shaoting raised his eyebrows. He Fuguang's idea was indeed very bold, but he had to admit that this could be considered another way.
He Fuguang had just finished speaking, and before Wu Shaoting answered, he said worriedly: "But it is too difficult to do this, and there are risks. Long Jiguang has been commanding the 23rd Town for several years, and has already penetrated into the morale of the military in the 23rd Town. Not to mention that Long Jiguang would not be fooled easily at this critical moment. Even if we have a way to lure him into Guangzhou under house arrest, I am afraid that the 23rd Town will rebel. In addition, Long Jiguang's brother controls the local defense force in Xin'an. Once the 23rd Town rebells, Xin'an will cooperate with support, and it will be difficult for Guangzhou."
"Haha, Chongshi, don't think so pessimistic about everything. Your idea is very novel. Although it is difficult to implement, it is at least a breakthrough idea. People need to have more imagination!" Wu Shaoting said with a smile. He thought that He Fuguang's words were an inspiration to him, and it might not be impossible, but it just takes some effort.
It was January 20th that Cai Naihuang returned to Yunfu. In the past few days, the revolutionary movements across the country became increasingly large. When he saw Long Jiguang, the latter was reading the newspaper in the newly built garden of the Commander's Courtyard.
"So, Wu Shaoting embarrasses you?" Long Jiguang's head was buried behind the newspaper, his tone was very light, as if all this was in his expectation.
Cai Naihuang had a little guilt on his face, but he said in a tone without saying a word: "Sir, Wu Shaoting is completely different from the people from the Tongmenghui."
Long Jiguang shook the newspaper leisurely, changed the page and continued to look at it, and asked again: "Is that so? Tell me, what's the difference?"
Cai Naihuang hesitated for a moment, as if he was considering using a suitable adjective. After a while, he solemnly said: "Wu Shaoting is actually the same type of person as us."
When Long Jiguang heard this, he suddenly put down the newspaper, his eyes full of interest. He said excitedly: "I have known for a long time that Wu Shaoting is not a simple person. What kind of revolution or righteousness is actually just a big fuck in his eyes."
Cai Naihuang was stunned. He didn't know why Long Jiguang was so sure. Although the Wu Shaoting he mentioned just now was the same as them, it just means that Wu Shaoting was in nature to dominate the other side, and his understanding of revolution was another matter. He might not be able to do some selfish things if he was interested in revolution. To be honest, aren't the people of the Tongmenghui all paranoid?
He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Sir, what should I do now? Obviously, Wu Shaoting will hinder our original plan. He will not let Guangzhou distribute military pay to us."
Long Jiguang smiled strangely for a while, then said, "I have to think about this matter slowly, and there is no rush."
Cai Naihuang frowned and asked in confusion: "Sir, what do you mean? If we can't get a slight benefit from the revolutionary government, then do we still need to change our flags and follow the leadership of the Guangzhou government?"
Long Jiguang smiled and said, "Of course it is necessary. Look at the contents of the newspapers these days. Fujian, Hunan and Hubei are almost in trouble. Especially in Jiangxi, the Second Division of the Revolutionary Guangdong Army fought a tough battle after arriving in Ganzhou. The main force of Jiangxi Governor Feng Rugui was almost completed. Ma Yubao and Li Liejun established the Revolutionary Governor's Office in Jiujiang, and sent troops to attack Nanchang just in time. It is estimated that the entire Jiangxi area has been restored today, but this newspaper was from the day before yesterday."
Cai Naihuang was even more confused. Why did Lord Long suddenly get involved in Jiangxi again? But soon he understood again. What General Long wanted to tell himself was the development of the revolutionary situation in the country, and the power of revolution had already gained the upper hand.
"Sir, do you really plan to compromise like this?" Cai Naihuang asked excitedly.
"Compromise? Humph," Long Jiguang laughed sarcastically. He put down the newspaper in his hand, touched the slut on his chin, and then said, "Looking at Guangdong, Wu Shaoting is my only enemy! Guangdong cannot accommodate two tigers, and I will fight him sooner or later. But it is not now."
"Then, sir, what are your plans next?" Cai Naihuang felt a little relieved and said.
