Back to the Republic of China as a commander

Chapter 021 Windfall from Heaven

Here in Wuchang, there will naturally be a celebration party. Li Yuanhong personally awarded honors to Wang Longzhong and other officers and soldiers of the Hubei Army, and also separately rewarded the officers and soldiers of the second battalion Dayang [-], and hoped that they would continue to bravely fight the enemy and serve the revolution more. make a contribution. . .

But at this time, Wang Longzhong, who is the coordinator, does not intend to stay in Hubei anymore, he wants to go back to Hunan.

Wang Longzhong's intention to go back to Hunan was not temporary, but because of mistrust. Since the reorganization of the Hubei and Hunan Army, from the bottom of his heart, Wang Longzhong was no longer willing to obey Huang Xing's command.Secondly, after all, his hometown of Hunan is where he and his army are based. He felt that it was necessary for him to rush back to Changsha with his troops, and seek an explanation from Tan Yankai and others as Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen.Otherwise, it would be too late for Tan Yankai and the others to sit on their buttocks firmly and go back by themselves.

So that night, at the victory celebration banquet organized by the Hubei military government, Wang Longzhong directly bypassed Huang Xing, the commander-in-chief, and directly bid farewell to Li Yuanhong, the commander-in-chief.

Li Dadu was really scared by the Beiyang Army in Hankou. Although the Beiyang Army has stopped military operations because of the destruction of supplies, who knows what will happen next?It is uncertain when the supplies will be replenished, and Hanyang will be another vicious battle, so he disagrees with Wang Longzhong's withdrawal to Hunan with the aid of Hubei and Hunan.You must know that Wang Longzhong has more than three battalions at this moment. After he has incorporated Liu Yutang's remaining troops, this guy has five battalions with nearly 4000 troops, not to mention that Gan Xindian's 2000 troops are also following his ass. of.Such an army of [-] to [-] people who have received formal training and actual combat tests is the capital to save their lives at this critical juncture. How could Li Yuanhong be willing to let them go home.

Another thing Li Yuanhong is very clear about is that the counterattack against Hanshui was originally lost.Moreover, according to the eyeliner report that he planted in the wartime headquarters, the loss was very complete and a mess.But in the end, thanks to the bold night attack of these Hunan soldiers, they miraculously turned defeat into victory, reversed the entire battle situation, and stabilized the situation in Hanyang.How can he let Wang Longzhong go at this time? Once they leave, who will guard Hanyang?

So Li Yuanhong hurriedly promised to make up the army's salary and ammunition, and only hoped that Wang Longzhong could stay in Hanyang for a while longer.

But Wang Longzhong was unmoved and still insisted on leaving.He is like a mirror in his heart, he has been out for more than a month, wait a minute?When Tan Yankai and the others secure the seat of the governor of Hunan, they will lose all chances.So no matter what Li Yuanhong promised, Wang Longzhong would not let go.

Afterwards, Sun Wu and others from the Hubei military government also came to persuade him one after another. Huang Xing, who learned the news later, was also surprised and rushed back to Wuchang from Hanyang overnight, trying his best to persuade Wang Longzhong to take care of the overall situation, but it failed.

Wang Longzhong did not expect that he would be so valued by the Hubei military government. Although his determination to go back did not change at all, it was not good for his face to do everything right.

During the conversation with Huang Xing, Wang Longzhong said to Huang Xing very emotionally: "Commander Huang, you know that we all came out to revolutionize and fight against the Tartars. But who would have thought that my old Wang had just Leading the team out of Changsha to fight against the Tartars, the surnamed Tan took the lives of our Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen. I thought right and wrong were very clear, but my old king stayed on the front line for a month Not to mention the loss of nearly 12 brothers in fighting with the Tartars. From the beginning to the end, I have never seen even one comrade stand up and say a word about the killing of Jiao Dudu and Chen Dudu. Even Tan Renfeng is the same. You know, when Wuchang was in crisis, we came to Jiaodudu to borrow troops, but our Jiaodudu didn't even say a word, and sent all of us who can rely on us. Otherwise, the surname Mei’s only relied on a battalion of troops to move our Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen, go to tmd. But Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen died unexpectedly. Did he, Tan Renfeng, say that he wanted to avenge our Dudu? Not at all, could it be that the two Dudu Jiao and Chen They are not anti-Tartar revolutionary comrades, they are the lackeys of the Tartars. So, don’t give an explanation, right? Don’t pay attention to it, right? So I took my brothers back to Changsha and asked for an explanation for our Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen. Commander Huang, don’t say anything, don’t try to persuade me. This man speaks bluntly, has a big temper, and offended you, but you don't care about your generosity. I knew you didn't come to be an official, you really came to revolution, and I don't want to completely refute your face. In this way, I left my nephew's Second Battalion under your command. In case my old Wang goes back to Changsha this time and things go wrong, and he is killed by those bastards like Jiao Dudu and Chen Dudu, please take care of me Let’s talk about that boy Wenzheng. This kid has been with me since he was [-] years old. After so many years of running, I won’t take him back to Hunan to swim in the muddy water. Please!”

After speaking, Wang Longzhong stood up with tears in his eyes, bowed to Huang Xing, then closed his mouth and eyes, not allowing Huang Xing to persuade him at all.

Huang Xing took a look and knew that Wang Longzhong had made up his mind, and he could only stand up and say, "Wang Xietong is indeed a person with the most affection and nature. If Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen knew about it, they would die in peace if they think about it. I Understood, I will bid farewell."

In the evening, Wang Longzhong called a meeting of all the officers above the battalion and told them that he was going back to Hunan, and that the second battalion would stay in Hubei and continue to follow the command of Huang Xing, the commander-in-chief during the war.

After the meeting was over, Wang Longzhong asked Wang Zhenyu to stay: "Wenzheng, uncle is going back to Hunan this time. His future is unknown and the outcome is unpredictable. He has no choice but to keep you in Hubei. Do you have any objections?"

Wang Zhenyu really admired Wang Longzhong's meticulousness, and knew that the probability of success in going back this time was not high. After all, there was no record of this operation in the history textbooks of later generations, so it was naturally unsuccessful.

He nodded: "Uncle, nephew, it's no use going back. It's good to stay in Hubei. In case something happens, uncle, you can come here. At least there are so many brothers. But uncle Lord, do we have to go back to Hunan to argue for this argument?"

Wang Longzhong shook his head: "Uncle can't do anything about it, Tan Yankai is amazing. A friend in Changsha wrote a letter saying that Dudu Tan is very good at buying people's hearts. The old troops of Dudu Jiao and Dudu Chen will either be eliminated or sent to the front line in Hubei." Yes. According to this trend, it won’t be long before he is completely secure as the governor. Don’t expect extravagant hopes of winning the throne. It’s lucky to be able to get revenge. If I continue to stay in Hubei and not return, I guess I will wait until the end of the war and return to Hunan. The one for our uncle and nephew is dismissed. My uncle joined the army at the age of 15. After so many years, if he really does not lead the army, he may have to go back to his hometown in Baoqing Mansion to farm and collect rent. Farming is nothing , it’s far easier than being an official. I’m afraid that these villains will not forget to harm me when the time comes, then uncle will really be worth two hundred and five.”

Wang Zhenyu also knew about power. Once the struggle started, he never took a step back and said nothing.He nodded and said nothing more.

Wang Longzhong told him a few more words, mainly to keep an eye on the troops, do a good job in training and so on.

On November 11th, Wang Longzhong, the First Coordinator of the First Division of the Hunan Aid Army, and Gan Xindian, the Third Coordinator of the First Coordinator, officially announced their withdrawal from Wuhan and returned to Changsha.

Li Yuanhong, the governor of the Hubei military government, was very angry when he learned about it. He sent a telegram to the Hunan military government in Changsha and demanded that the governor of the Hunan military government, Tan Yankai, be severely punished for such behaviors of running away.This was probably the biggest cold joke during the Revolution of [-]. Tan Yankai himself didn't know how to deal with this murderous army that went straight to Changsha. Li Yuanhong actually asked him to punish him. He was really speechless!

Wang Zhenyu has also been quite upset recently. Although relying on his excellent and even slightly miraculous performance in the first battle in Hankou, he has now become a well-known figure across the country and an excellent representative of civilian army officers.But the wheel of history is still stubbornly moving forward according to its original track. The only difference is that because of the little butterfly effect of the Yudaimen night attack, Duan Qirui won the first victory from Feng Guozhang 20 days earlier than in history. command of an army.Moreover, due to various reasons, the Qing government also agreed to a temporary truce between the North and the South three days in advance. Therefore, Li Yuanhong avoided performing the cold joke of running to Wuchang forty miles and Wan Yaohuang chasing the governor at night to stamp the truce letter.

But these have nothing to do with Wang Zhenyu. The most fundamental problem is still unsolved. What should I do after the revolution?

Follow the family uncle Wang Longzhong, don't think about it, it must be Mao Qiantu, because there is no such person in history.In other words, this time Wang Longzhong ran back to seize power under the banner of revenge for Jiao Dudu and Chen Dudu, and he definitely failed.Politics is a thing, sailing against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat, and then the uncle will probably have to withdraw from the political arena.If you follow him, you might as well follow Lu Diping. At least when Xiao Luzi becomes the chairman of Jiangxi Province in the future, you can get a teacher and brigade commander to do it. Tinker with the industrialization of education, grab this opportunity that will last forever, and see who dares to fight for this pile of shit in their future generations.

Following Tan Yankai and Governor Tan, it seems that this person was not bad in the Republic of China, at least he was not quiet, and he was considered a big man until his death.But after all, he is Wang Longzhong's cheap family nephew, but it would be nonsense to say that they can take over the new position on this point.Besides, even if Tan Yankai really believes in himself a lot and reuses himself, how much future can he have?Don't look at the fact that Lao Tan was able to play a governor of Hunan three times in Hunan, the land of the Fourth World War during the Republic of China, and still occupy a place in the National Government behind it.But that's because he's the boss, he's still trying to make a comeback when he's bankrupt, and he's a part-time worker, so how can he make such a fuss with him? Moreover, Lao Tan's later descendants, Cheng Qian, Zhao Hengti, and Tang Shengzhi, were a rival after Lao Tan's death. One is unreliable, so is it unreliable to follow suit?During the period of the Republic of China, the Hunan Army actually did not become popular at all, and it completely became the source of high-quality soldiers for the major warlords. It is true that the Zhejiang people paid for it, the Cantonese revolutionized, and the Hunan people worked hard.So following Tan Yankai is basically not considered, both big and small have no future.

So what should I do in the face of the troubled times ahead?Whether it is Yuan Shikai or Sun Yat-sen, I guess if I go to seek refuge now, they will not look at me in the right light.With this little military exploits and this little army, it's okay to fool the common people.These big figures must have a standard for judging everyone's use value, and their current situation will definitely not meet the standard.well. . .
