Back to the Republic of China as a commander

It was none other than Wang Zhenyu's old acquaintance Zhang Xueji who came to see Wang Zhenyu on behalf of Sun Yat-sen.As for why he was sent here, it was probably because Sun Yat-sen felt that he was from Zhijiang in western Hunan, and that no one was suitable for sending him here.

Zhang Xueji is also a real person. Although he failed to deal with Wang Zhenyu before, he still bit the bullet and came again.

Zhang Xueji clearly remembered that the first time he came to see Wang Zhenyu was entrusted by Mr. Song Jiaoren. He persuaded Wang Zhenyu to join the Kuomintang, but the result failed. The army leader who occupied Hongjiang seemed to have no interest in this troublesome Kuomintang member. I didn't even see my face.Except for an old acquaintance Qin Zhen, I never saw anyone else. Because Mr. Song had a very high profile at that time, he didn't pay much attention to Xiangxi, so Zhang Xueji couldn't complete the task in the end. Angrily left.

The second time I came to see Wang Zhenyu was when I was begging Yuan, which is the so-called second revolution.Speaking of it now, it is even more a great tragedy. I don’t know what medicine Mr. Sun Yat-sen took wrongly at that time. In order to mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized to ask Yuan, he threw himself a letter of commission to ask Yuan Jun Commander in Xiangxi, and sent himself here Command all the troops in the western Hunan area, regardless of whether they can command the movement.The results of it?Zhang Xueji disembarked at the Xiangxi Wharf in Anjiang, and was taken to a secret location by He Jian of the Military Intelligence Bureau. He asked for food and drinks, and women could also give them, but he was not allowed to leave or see anyone. It is not allowed to send letters outside, and it is even more impossible to meet Wang Zhenyu for a detailed discussion. This is considered house arrest.This house arrest lasted until the end of the second revolution. Sun Yat-sen accused Wang Zhenyu of being a traitor to the revolution. Zhang Xueji was finally sent out of the country, and then became a scapegoat for Wang Zhenyu's march into Guangxi. He was on the wanted list of Yuan Shikai's government and had to go into exile in Japan. .

But this time, Zhang Xueji himself was a little discouraged. According to the old rules, he probably won't see Wang Zhenyu, a handsome man who never sees his end.It's funny to say, the first time I came, Wang Zhenyu was still a brigade commander, and the second time I came, I was already qualified to be a commander-in-chief, but now I am already a commander-in-chief. The rapid expansion of power and the rapid promotion of status are rare.

Things in the world are often so strange, Zhang Xueji met Wang Zhenyu this time.

"Brother Xueji, I've heard you famous for a long time, and I'm lucky to see you today." Underneath Wang Zhenyu's enthusiasm is a very clear and polite manner.

And Zhang Xueji is also very savvy, he didn't advance the matter twice at all, but said more politely: "Under the order of Mr. Sun, I came to pay a special visit to the commander-in-chief. At this time when the country's thieves are rampant and the country's affairs are so difficult, I still pay attention to the commander-in-chief." With the common people in the world in mind, hold high the banner of righteousness to protect the country, and save all people from suffering."

Wang Zhenyu was taken aback after hearing this, and thought to himself, it seems that Mr. Zhang was frightened and gained experience in the previous two episodes, now when he sees himself, he is straight to the point, as if he is afraid of practicing Tai Chi.

But Wang Zhenyu is no longer that down-and-out college student in later generations, and now he is already a little fox who has cultivated to become a master.He pretended to be surprised and said: "Brother Xueji, the world is peaceful now, and there is nothing wrong in the world. It is just a time when a thousand wastes are waiting to be rejuvenated. Why do you say that?"

How could Wang Zhenyu's little tricks hide it from Zhang Xueji?Zhang Xueji still looked distressed: "Marshal Wang, you have lived in Xiangxi for a long time and devoted yourself to the people. What I saw when I went to Anjiang was stability and prosperity, but do you know? We were born and died, and finally overthrew the imperial system, but Yuan Thief has stolen the power of the country. Commander, you know that Mr. Sun willingly resigned from the post of interim president in order to make a living for the people of the world and unify the country as soon as possible. He originally thought that Yuan Shikai could implement democracy and rejuvenate China. Unexpectedly, this thief is really an independent husband of the people. He not only persecuted me as a member of the Revolutionary Party, but also killed me as the founder of the 21 Revolution. When people set up a security committee, what they think is nothing more than restoring the monarchy. If such wolfish ambitions are realized, the blood of our generation will not be shed in vain, and the dream of the people's democracy and republic will not be shattered. Don’t our people fall into darkness forever. Today, I understand why Yuan Thief is willing to sign the "[-] Articles" with the Japanese, which is a treaty to destroy China! This son even wants to claim the emperor, even the country and the nation. There are so many crimes, it is heinous! Wen Zheng (not even the commander-in-chief), I, the elite of Hunan and Guangxi, are in your hands. At this time of survival of the world, when the hot-blooded man is just rising, how can you live alone in Xiangxi? What about the crisis situation?"

Awesome, amazing, Wang Zhenyu sighed in his heart, no wonder the Kuomintang in the early Republic of China could play empty-handed white wolves everywhere. The eloquence of these revolutionary propaganda teams alone could inspire a large group of people to die generously. This is really, really Yes, too evil.

After Zhang Xueji made a generous statement, he took a breath and observed Wang Zhenyu secretly, but found that the other party did not get excited because of his few words, but sat there quietly, motionless.This made Zhang Xueji feel a little bit of fear in addition to a little bit of disappointment.Although the man in front of him was under 25 years old, he didn't see that calm demeanor even in Mr. Sun, and what was even more frightening was that this man seemed to have everything under control.

Zhang Xueji has been in Anjiang for a few days. After contacting some relationships in previous years, he gradually learned about the strength of the so-called local government of Hunan and Guangxi.Not to mention the modern Anjiang, Zhang Xueji visited several friends who were officers in the local security forces, and found that in many places, the local security forces that were only responsible for maintaining law and order were more elite than the regular army he saw in Sichuan. They are well equipped, and apart from heavy artillery, they have a lot of weapons that they should have.The beautiful and straight military uniform and the face full of vigor, Zhang Xueji has never seen these scenes even in the Beiyang Army. This is the local security force, so how terrifying will the field troops be?Moreover, Zhang Xueji found very sadly that his former friends, including many former alliance members, had been assimilated under Wang Zhenyu's command.They don't want to follow Mr. Sun anymore, and they made it clear that although they lead the troops, the army companies and platoons have instructors, and the soldiers also have their own soldier committees. , no one except Wang Zhenyu.In other words, if people like myself do not have an order from the staff, let alone a rebellion, it would be very difficult for the troops to leave the barracks with weapons.

Zhang Xueji was dumbfounded when he heard that. He himself had led soldiers. From south to north, he probably couldn't find anyone who could control the army better than Wang Zhenyu.Even Yuan Shikai couldn't do it, and Mr. Sun probably couldn't even match it.

It was precisely after realizing this point that Zhang Xueji made it clear that Wang Zhenyu was the key to whether he could finally complete the task assigned by Mr. Sun during his trip to Xiangxi this time.To be precise, as long as Wang Zhenyu can be persuaded, then the army of the Hunan-Guangxi local government will become Mr. Sun's armed force to defeat Yuan Shikai, and the revolution will have the hope of victory.

Wang Zhenyu looked at Zhang Xueji, and Zhang Xueji looked at Wang Zhenyu. They didn't speak for three or four minutes.

Of course, Wang Zhenyu knew what Sun Yat-sen was planning. The war to protect the country must be launched. Even if he did not have himself as a traverser, Cai E in Yunnan would unceremoniously launch the war to protect the country.

But in this way, the dominance of the war to protect the country will not be in the hands of the Chinese Revolutionary Party led by Sun Yat-sen, and Liang Qichao will also become the top political figure in the history of the Republic of China because of such a war, although in the end this political figure died because of Cai E's illness It has become a shooting star, but the dominance of the war to protect the country is undoubtedly in the hands of Liang Qichao, Cai E and other Progressive Party members.However, it seems that this is also an important reason why the history textbooks of later generations downplay the significance of the War to Protect the Country, which is too embarrassing.

Wang Zhenyu is the master from later generations. In his eyes, there is no difference between Sun Yat-sen and Yuan Shikai in essence, and they are both political figures.You have to be careful when dealing with such people. If you can't play until you work hard and get nothing in the end, you will lose money.If you look at Guangzhou in history, you will know how powerful Sun Yat-sen was.First, they used Lu Rongting to drive away Long Jiguang, then used Chen Jiongming, Yang Ximin, and Liu Zhenhuan to drive away Lu Rongting, then used Yang Ximin, Liu Zhenhuan to drive away Chen Jiongming, and finally used the Soviets to establish a party army and eliminate these three parties.This is not an empty glove, what is a white wolf?Playing politics can take advantage of the situation to such an extent. It is estimated that many entrepreneurs who use power and institutional advantages to make a fortune in future generations will be overshadowed in front of Sun Yat-sen, which is not enough.

Therefore, before meeting Zhang Xueji, Wang Zhenyu made up his mind to talk about things with Sun Wen, not to talk about world peace and human liberation, and he probably had to give away his underwear in the end.What to talk about, talk about interests.

Wang Zhenyu smiled slightly: "Brother Xueji, you don't know Chai Migui because you are not in charge. We have no more than [-] soldiers here. In Li County, the Sixth Division of the Beiyang Army is suppressed. It is the elite of the elite. Relying on Xiangxi's The location is favorable for us to defend for a while. As for the attack, we don’t even think about it. What about Guangxi? Don't dare to move around, and more importantly, if there is no big city like Guangzhou to support our finances, once the cannon is fired, it will cost ten thousand taels of gold. Our army should have collapsed due to lack of money and food, don’t you think? Brother Xueji..."
