Fengxian Jiangshan

Wu Peifu led the rebellious army, all the way from the Yangtze River to the Pearl River, and the momentum was great. The army's soldiers pointed directly at the city of Guangzhou, and there was a certain momentum.But at this time, Wu Peifu ordered to stop the attack, which made everyone a little baffled.

"Commander Xue, how is the situation in Guangzhou?" Feng Yong asked worriedly while looking at the fortifications on the periphery of the Guangdong Army in the distance.

"I sent a few brothers to sneak into the city secretly, and found that Sun Wen was recruiting troops wantonly, and there were ships coming from the sea continuously, which seemed to be delivering supplies to them."

Hearing this, Feng Yong couldn't help but said: "What you have detected is similar to what the Air Force saw. Sun Wen's party is indeed in a fight to the death, but I don't know who gave them the courage. ?”

"I suspect that the Japanese did it. The brothers who were investigating in the city found that the number of Japanese in the city had increased a lot, and they were helping Sun Wen plan the defense system and build fortifications."

When Feng Yong heard this, he immediately clenched his fists: "It's these little devils again. They really are haunted. Let's go to Wu Peifu immediately. We must launch an attack as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

The two of them came to the general headquarters in a hurry. At this time, there was only Wu Peifu in the headquarters, and the other generals were driven out. When Feng Yong and the others came, Wu Peifu immediately greeted them.

"You two come here, is there something wrong with Lan Shuai?"

Feng Yong shook his head: "The commander-in-chief didn't have any orders, we just wondered, Guangzhou is right in front of us, why did the army stop and didn't immediately attack the city?"

Wu Peifu said with a smile: "I don't know what you two are. Guangzhou is a big city with hundreds of thousands of residents. Once the war breaks out, the soldiers will be in trouble, and the people will suffer too much. I am arranging personnel to negotiate with Sun Wen, hoping to make them peaceful. give up Guangzhou."

When Feng Yong heard this, he shook his head immediately: "Mr. Wu, looking at Sun Wen's behavior over the years, his greed for power has reached the extreme. And to deal with this kind of rebellion, the only way to deal with this kind of rebellion is to use a thunderbolt. The sooner it is resolved, the common people will lose Less, more delay. More trouble!"

Xue Ju also said: "We have observed that some Japanese military advisers have come to Guangzhou to guide Sun Wen's troops. Once there is Japanese help, it will be much more troublesome to completely eliminate Sun Wen. As the saying goes Incessantly, against the chaos, we hope that Chief Wu can make an early decision to take Guangzhou."

When Wu Peifu heard this, his face suddenly darkened.He said loudly: "I am the commander-in-chief of the rebel army. I know what to do. I don't need you to tell me what to do. You'd better weigh your own weight and don't treat yourself as an imperial envoy!"

Feng Yong's face also turned sour: "Mr. Wu, this time he went south to seek rebellion. The Fengjun assisted the Zhijun wholeheartedly. He had absolutely no intention of fighting for power. He conquered Guangzhou, eliminated Sun Wen, unified the military and government of the North and the South, and maintained the It is the authority of the central government. The victory is just around the corner, and it is really incomprehensible that Officer Wu suddenly stopped moving forward."

Wu Peifu suddenly let out a long sigh, and then said with a wry smile: "In life, things go wrong as you wish, and Wu doesn't want to see success fail, but there are some unspeakable secrets!"

Speaking of Wu Peifu sent a telegram to Feng Yong and Xue Ju, Feng Yong took the telegram over, looked carefully, and immediately showed a look of anger on his face.

Just one day ago, the Japanese officially informed the Beiyang government that they would increase their garrisons in Shandong and Fujian to ensure Japan's interests in China.Moreover, it also very implicitly proposed that China should resolve the North-South dispute peacefully, and should not blindly use force to cause social unrest.

After Feng Yong saw this telegram, he immediately understood that it was the Japanese who put pressure on Wu Peifu to stop him from moving forward.

When Xue Ju saw it, he was immediately furious: "Mr. Wu, the Japanese have made it clear that they are intimidating with force. If they are easily frightened by them, how can they eliminate Sun Wen's party? Is it just a missed opportunity?"

Wu Peifu was immediately stopped by the question, his face was gloomy and he was silent, and the atmosphere in the whole room was also very oppressive and dull, which made him a little out of breath.

At this time, Zhang Fulai hurried in, reached Wu Peifu's ear, and said in a low voice: "Commander, I heard that the Japanese shipped a batch of arms from Taiwan, the amount is quite large, and it is very likely that it was to aid Sun Wen." Yes, what do you think we should do?"

Hearing this, Wu Peifu finally showed anger on his face. He suddenly stood up, walked to the front of the phone in a few steps, and grabbed it.As long as Wu Peifu gives an order, tens of thousands of troops will immediately attack Guangzhou City and wipe out Sun Wen's party in one fell swoop.

Zhang Fulai, Feng Yong, and Xue Ju were all staring at Wu Peifu to see if he could give the order, but after waiting for a while, Wu Peifu didn't say a word. He stood blankly in front of the phone, looking very depressed.Suddenly, he let go of his hand and dropped the microphone, and his whole body instantly receded.

He waved his hands weakly, telling everyone to leave. Feng Yong and Xue Ju looked at each other, all disappointed.I thought Wu Peifu was the only heroic character in Beiyang, but looking at it now, it was nothing more than that.

After walking out of the barracks, Xue Ju had a disdainful look on his lips: "Huh, Wu Ziyu is really a hero in vain. Why can't the Japanese exert some pressure and can't bear it. Let the Fengjun set up defenses along the Yalu River. When will It’s not a tit-for-tat confrontation with the Japanese, and you don’t even have this bit of heroism, and you want to recruit special forces to work for him, it’s simply wishful thinking!”

The same is true for Feng Yong: "I don't know. In this world, I am afraid that we are the only ones who are not afraid of foreigners. It is a blessing to be able to follow a promising leader. You don’t even want to be an ancestor if you’re a tiger-skin scumbag!”

The two of them returned to the station angrily. At this time, Wu Peifu also looked depressed. Of course he wanted to eliminate Sun Wen in one fell swoop, but facing the threat of the Japanese, he still couldn't turn a blind eye.

The Japanese took advantage of the opportunity of World War I to obtain Shandong, which directly threatened the security of Beijing.As for the direction of Fujian, it is even closer to Guangdong. If the fight continues, will the Japanese army appear on the opposite side?These are all things Wu Peifu has to worry about.

Zhang Tinglan dared to fight the Japanese, but Wu Peifu didn't have the guts or the strength.He sat in the headquarters, motionless, like a wooden sculpture of clay. After more than an hour, Wu Peifu finally sighed: "Zhang Zhuoyan, I can't compare to you!"

……

"I didn't expect Wu Peifu to be like that!" Jiang Fangzhen shook his head and smiled wryly: "The Japanese just threatened him, and he didn't dare to deal with Sun Wen. You must know that killing is not killing but becoming revenge, especially for a person like Sun Wen. Let it go!"

Yang Yuting's face was full of anger: "Humph, we helped him so much. In the end, he was persuaded. Is the Japanese the king of heaven? Are words more effective than imperial edicts?"

Jiang Dengxuan smiled wryly at the side and said, "Chief of Staff, don't complain. You should think about whether to let Sun Wen go. If you don't want to, Wu Peifu won't work. Then we have to do it ourselves."

Jiang Dengxuan looked at Zhang Tinglan, and took the initiative to ask for orders: "Marshal, I am willing to mention a brigade of teachers to solve Sun Wen!"

Zhang Tinglan waved his hand: "Raise troops from the northeast. How long it will take to reach Guangdong is not advisable. Don't worry, I have already made arrangements, and Sun Wen will never escape from the palm of my hand. Lin Ge, you go and send a telegram to Wu Peifu and don't attack." Yes, but let him persist outside Guangzhou for three days to attract Sun Wen's attention."

When everyone present heard this, they all showed expressions of surprise and joy. The commander-in-chief really had an unexpected opportunity. Even if Wu Peifu couldn't use this move, he still had a way to deal with Sun Wen. It was simply too unexpected up!

Everyone's appetite was also turned up, wanting to know what backhand Zhang Tinglan arranged, but Zhang Tinglan didn't reveal anything, and they could only scratch their heads, unable to figure out what medicine was sold in the handsome gourd!

In fact, Wu Peifu was very puzzled after receiving the telegram. Judging from the telegram, Zhang Tinglan must have not given up on dealing with Sun Wen, but it is really doubtful that there is any great way to do it thousands of miles away.

Just when everyone had doubts, the city of Guangzhou had turned into a military camp. Sun Wen recruited more than 2 young and middle-aged men, and the Japanese sent a batch of munitions from Taiwan, and these people were all armed.A large number of fortifications were built in the city, and everything was arranged according to the battle of life and death.

In the original history, the Japanese and Zhang Zuolin were fighting fiercely at this time, and Sun Wen had already abandoned it, so he turned to cooperate with Russia.But now Fengjun and the Japanese are already in the same situation, and the Japanese feel that they have too few chess pieces in China.

Especially after another conflict with Fengjun, the Japanese wanted to retain a pro-Japanese force, so they stepped up their support work, hoping that Sun Wen could stay in Guangdong forever, so as to contain the entire strategic structure of China.

The city of Guangzhou is in a busy state, people are being arrested everywhere, fortifications are being built everywhere, all kinds of stalls fall on the heads of the common people, and everyone is miserable.

Just to the south of the city, there was a small courtyard surrounded by patrolling sentries. They guarded the place tightly and did not let anyone approach it.In the small room in the courtyard, Chen Jiongming was fidgeting and trembling inside.A few days ago, Sun Wen approached him to discuss military affairs.

Unexpectedly, just after meeting, Sun Wen questioned him about Deng Keng's surrender. Of course Chen Jiongming denied it, but Sun Wen didn't believe it at all. He directly had Chen Jiongming arrested and imprisoned in a small courtyard.

Chen Jiongming's heart was on fire, and his chest was filled with anger. He didn't expect Sun Wen to be so decisive, and he didn't talk about affection at all. If he had known this, he should have responded to Feng Jun's call immediately and dealt with Sun Wen first. How could there be such things? trouble.

Just when he didn't know how to respond, there was a rustling sound from the ground. Before Chen Jiongming could figure out what was going on, suddenly a piece of soil on the ground collapsed, revealing a dark hole.

The hole opened, and a head came out of it, and it was his confidant Deng Keng who came.When Chen Jiongming saw his old subordinate running in front of him in this way, he couldn't believe it, and almost cried out.

Deng Keng got out of the tunnel and said in a low voice, "Old sir, hurry up, brothers are all ready, as soon as you go out, we will launch an attack on Guangzhou immediately, and let Dapao Sun have a taste of it!"

Chen Jiongming also nodded hastily. Obviously, he also hated Sun Wen to the core. He quickly followed Deng Keng into the tunnel, and quietly left the small courtyard where he was imprisoned.

Just as Chen Jiongming was escaping, on the other hand, Lu Rongting also gathered all his subordinates, and said to everyone excitedly: "Just yesterday, Zhang Tinglan, the commander-in-chief of the border defense army, remitted us 200 million military expenses, and also promised to give us I have eight heavy cannons, so I can be said to be generous. Sun Dapao has been tossing around for so many years, but there is no movement, so I will cooperate with Feng Jun to solve Sun Wen. What do you think?"

"Agreed, no problem!"

Many of these Guangxi generals also took advantage of Zhang Tinglan and were already ready to sell Sun Wen for a good price, so they all agreed.

Lu Rongting immediately ordered to contact the Guangxi army in the city, to cooperate internally and externally, and take Guangzhou.

After a day of preparations, at nightfall, violent artillery fire suddenly rang out from the west of Guangzhou. In the light of the fire, countless Guangxi troops quickly broke through the defense line and entered the city.

At the same time, gunfire sounded in the east of the city, and Chen Jiongming also led the troops to launch an attack. The two armies surged like a tide, and Sun Wen's men, who were still in a daze, couldn't figure out what was going on, and they were all rushed. scattered.

Sun Wen's city defense forces are basically troops from Guangdong and Guangxi. Now that the two princes Lu Rongting and Chen Jiongming are rebelling together, how can his small court be preserved?There were flames everywhere in the city of Guangzhou, and the sound of killing was everywhere. Sun Wen's deployment was all disrupted, and the soldiers ran around crying for their fathers and mothers.

The city of Guangzhou was full of flames of war. Naturally, it could not be hidden from the Beiyang Army. Someone had reported it to Wu Peifu a long time ago. After receiving the report, Wu Peifu was immediately stunned.Although he guessed that Zhang Tinglan might have a backhand, he really didn't expect that he would have the ability to make the two princes defect, which was simply too unexpected.

The Japanese are patronizing to put pressure on Beiyang and want to keep Sun Wen, but they don't know that Sun Wen has many hidden dangers inside, and the mud can't support the wall at all!

"Pass my order, the whole army is ready to attack Guangzhou!"

Now that the general situation is over, Wu Peifu will not be polite, and the Beiyang Army also launched an attack from the north.At this time, Sun Wen finally felt what it means to be besieged on all sides. His subordinates surrounded him and fled quickly.

At this time, the young Mrs. Sun was also by his side. At this time, there were rioting soldiers everywhere, and stray bullets flew by from time to time. Mrs. Sun took Sun Wen's hand and said solemnly: "China can live without me, but it cannot live without you. You retreat first!" (To be continued...)
