Back to the Republic of China as a commander

According to the contract originally agreed upon by the two parties, the Chinese European Expeditionary Force should have departed from China in January 1917, and it would take 45 to [-] days to sail through the Suez Canal, a relatively safe channel of nearly [-] kilometers. in France.

However, Wang Zhenyu suddenly discovered that January 1 in AD was the Chinese traditional festival of the Spring Festival. Thinking that many of the first batch of 22 children might have celebrated the last Spring Festival, Wang Zhenyu suddenly mercifully issued an order that all officers and soldiers of the expeditionary army should start from the Yuan Dynasty. The holiday starts on the 23th of the month, and the holiday lasts for 20 days, returning to the team on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

After this round of tossing, the date for the expeditionary force to dispatch troops will naturally be late.As a result, Britain and France cursed but had no choice but to do anything. Beiyang was very nervous, and was afraid that Wang Zhenyu would use the guise of participating in the war to make plans for the Northern Expedition, because they themselves thought so.In the end, it was Japan. They made a misjudgment because of this. After Wang Zhenyu obtained the arms of 20 people from Britain and France, he had a bad debt plan.

I don't know what's going on with the Japanese intelligence agencies. Anyway, Wang Zhenyu's image in their eyes is really bad, and it can't be changed in the short term.

In the end, the Chinese European Expeditionary Force went on an expedition, and the spies of the Japanese intelligence agency almost ran out of breath to cut seppuku.But they didn't do this, because it was very painful to cut flesh with a knife, and in the end they decided to leave their useful bodies to serve His Majesty the Emperor.

The preparations for this expedition have also been fully prepared due to the delay, including inoculation of various vaccinations for the officers and soldiers participating in the battle, including the assignment of [-] doctors to the expeditionary force, and so on.

These doctors also ensured the health and safety of hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers during the voyage of more than 30 days. The officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force also saw the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, the busy Strait of Malacca, and the tranquility of the Red Sea during this voyage. The grandeur of the Suez Canal finally entered the Mediterranean Sea, a symbol of human civilization.It can be said that during the period of more than 30 days, the horizons of these officers and soldiers were greatly expanded, and they realized that the world outside of China is so big, and that there are such civilizations outside the Kingdom of Heaven.The officers and soldiers of the Chinese European Expeditionary Force returned to the motherland after the end of the European War. Some continued to serve in the army, and some went into politics to advocate national expansionism. More returned to civilians, allowing more Chinese to open their eyes to see the world.

However, it is clear that Wang Zhenyu's decision to send troops to Europe based on his personal prestige has aroused dissatisfaction among many people of insight. Nanjing Mayor Wang Jingwei organized a peace club to publicly sing against Wang Zhenyu.After all, in everyone's eyes, the armies of the great powers are not something that the squadron can look up to, let alone go all the way to Europe to fight with people, then there is no chance of winning.

For this move led by Wang Jingwei, Wang Zhenyu just snorted coldly and ignored it.When the Nationalist Government was first established, this kid tried his best to lean on his side, and he also gave him trust and rewards. However, after Huang Xing was critically ill, this kid's ambition was exposed almost overnight.He actually planned an armed operation openly, planning to take the opportunity of visiting Huang Xing in Nanjing to put him under house arrest.Fortunately, Yu Zuobai was superior in skills. He was a military police commander and Yan Daogang conspired to coerce Lu Chao, the most important part of Wang Jingwei's plan, the commander of the Nanjing Garrison District, to meet him, and at the same time transferred the troops directly under the Garrison to Pukou for training.Coupled with Huang Xing's son Huang Yiou's unwillingness to participate, in the end Wang Jingwei's coup d'état was aborted before it produced results.

Although Wang Zhenyu is not willing to destroy the achievements of the joint party because of Wang Jingwei alone, it is unrealistic for Wang Jingwei to continue to serve as the mayor of Nanjing. After all, this position is really lacking.

And Wang Jingwei has now learned about the future personnel arrangements from the comrades of the Tongmenghui. When the National Government is reorganized in April, he, the mayor of Nanjing, will be in the end. According to the opinion of Wang Zhenyu's top advisor, Yang Yongtai, he will be the next position. a legislator.However, the Tongmenghui is still fighting for Wang Jingwei to have a real government position. No matter what the result is, Wang Jingwei is determined to carry the banner of democracy and peace to carry out the anti-Wang Zhenyu movement to the end.

The New Year in 1917 was celebrated in Wenlu. This three-story German-style villa was first built in April 1916 and completed in July 4. Wang Zhenyu and his family moved in in September.Compared with Wenlu in Anjiang, the facilities here are more complete. There are three bathrooms and a swimming pool, which can be said to be extremely luxurious.

This time the Chinese New Year was very lively, not only Wang Long led all the young and old members of the Wang family to their seats, Ye Zuwen's family didn't even bother, and Li Zongren's family was also invited to come together.The reason for inviting Li Zongren's family is very simple, everyone will soon be relatives.

After the Sichuan War, Ye Ziwen came forward, and Li Zongren met with the younger sister of the Wang family, and then the tug-of-war of love began.Although the younger sister of the Wang family who received the new education advocated free love, she was still no match for Li Zongren's strategy and methods, and was unceremoniously taken down by our brother Delin.

The two families plan to finalize the marriage during the Spring Festival, and then they will have the wedding after the year.In the military, attention to the list of members of the Standing Committee of the Military Commission has also increased on a large scale, but many people have guessed that Li Zongren will definitely be on the list this time.The Standing Committee this time is different from the previous one. There are fewer vain positions and more real power. It can be said that as long as you join the Standing Committee, you are basically one of the giants in the military.

Compared with the Wen Hut in Anjiang, the area of ​​Wen Hut in Wuhan is almost five times larger. The 45-meter-long and 36-meter-wide living room on the first floor alone is enough for a medium-sized dance party.The decoration of the living room is very special. When you enter the door, it is directly facing the escalator to the second floor.On the left side of the entrance are twelve groups of British genuine sofas arranged in a square shape, all of which are three-meter-long leather sofas.This Du Yuesheng is Wang Zhenyu's sworn brother, and he is very caring.In April last year, Wenlu in Wuhan was about to start construction. He personally invited the construction team from Shanghai to come to the construction, and invited French designers to design the interior decoration. After the completion of the project in June, I brought experts over to look at the layout, and then customized a full set of British furniture. When I moved in in September, a lot of furniture was sent to Wenlu, and all of them fit perfectly.This matter was handled so well that the hostess Ye Ziwen couldn't help but praise our Boss Du in front of Wang Zhenyu.In the middle of this sofa is an eight-meter-square cashmere blanket woven from Xinjiang, which is exquisite in workmanship and charming in style.This was sent by Yang Zengxin, the actual ruler of Xinjiang, from Yunnan Mengzi. With the unification of the south, the separatist regimes in Xinjiang, Tibet, and Gansu began to have contact with Nanjing and Wuhan.After all, it is unlikely that people from these places will win the central government, and it is very common to leave a way out for themselves at this time.Wang Zhenyu also has some thoughts about this. If Xinjiang in history did not have the support of figures like Yang Zengxin and Sheng Shicai, it would have been lost to Russia long ago.Therefore, Wang Zhenyu's idea is to win Xinjiang and Tibet as soon as possible even if the national unification cannot be completed.As for Russia, Wang Zhenyu is not worried at all. The reason is very simple. The February Revolution of the Russians may break out in two months.At that time, let alone Xinjiang and Outer Mongolia, even if I sent troops into Kazakhstan, I guess the old Maozi could only protest strongly through diplomatic notes.

Now Wang Zhenyu, brother-in-law Ye Guoxuan, brother-in-law Ye Guowei, and future brother-in-law Li Zongren are sitting on the sofa chatting for a while.On the other side of the living room, a long dining table has been set up, and when the meal is ready, a total of 24 big dishes and twelve plates of dim sum will be served, and everyone can start eating like a buffet, isn't it The New Year's Eve dinner, but because Wang Zhenyu's adopted son, Shen Quan, will go to Shen's house in Changsha to celebrate the New Year tomorrow, so a party will be held in advance.

Shen Quan, a ten-year-old boy, was running around in the living room with his elder brother Wang Zhenkun, nine-year-old eldest son Wang Jingan, six-year-old second son Wang Jingcheng, and Wang Zhenyu's eldest son Wang Jingye who had begun to like mischief.Because Ye Guoxuan is not yet married, the Ye family does not have a third-generation male.Ye Ziwen's mother and sister-in-law Wang Heshi are now watching these children tossing together, preventing them from touching the dining table.And Wang Zhenyu's third son, Wang Jingwu, is over one year old, and he is being teased in Ye Zuwen's arms at the moment, but he doesn't seem to be very friendly to his grandfather, just now he urinated hard in Ye Zuwen's arms, causing everyone lol.

The second son, Wang Jingwen, was in Zhao Yuting's arms, and tried his best to touch Zhao Yuting's jade neck with his small white and flawless hands. Mrs. Chen seemed to understand the Luo Mo in Zhao Yuting's heart, and took her daughter Wang Ziqi who was about to get married and Li Zongren's mother to chat with Zhao Yuting on the hanging chair on this side.The cheap father Wang Longxian over there is chatting with Li Zongren's father Li Peiying. Fortunately, one of these two has been an official servant and the other has been a teacher. The two of them could only stare wide-eyed.Li Zongren's brothers were led by Wang Zhenyu's seventh younger brother Wang Zhencheng (13 years old) to take a walk in Wenlu, while the two female relatives and three children seemed very reserved, sitting obediently beside Li Peiying, motionless .At this moment, Wang Jingye fell down suddenly and burst into tears. Wang Long, who had always regarded this grandson as a treasure, rushed to hug the grandson, coaxing and teasing him non-stop.

What a picture of a harmonious family, but what Wang Zhenyu didn't notice was the occasional haze that flashed in Zhao Yuting's eyes.
