Back to the Republic of China as a commander

On August 1917, the sixth year of the Republic of China (AD 8), Zhang Zongchang, who had just captured Shandong, was backed by the Japanese, and the ambitious Chen Bing was ready to cross the river to attack Xuzhou with the support of the Japanese.

Xuzhou is almost the last shelter of the Anhui army. Xu Shuzheng thought for a long time, and felt that the 3 troops under his own hands could not stop the advance of Zhang Zongchang's 20 troops under the circumstances of lack of ammunition and no foreign aid. .So he thought over and over again, and he decided to accept the suggestion left by Wang Zhenyu's special envoy Yang Yongtai before leaving.On the one hand, he ordered his troops to fortify along the Yellow River; on the other hand, he personally rushed to Nanjing to meet Wang Zhenyu who was in Nanjing.

Feng Jun's aggressive posture also gave Wu Peifu a sense of doomsday crisis that is about to come and catastrophe is imminent.But after all, he still has territory and an army, which is no different than Xu Shuzheng's situation, so he himself was not in a hurry to come to Nanjing, but sent a representative, which seemed to be up for grabs.In this regard, Wang Zhenyu guessed maliciously, if Yuan Shikai saw that his Beiyang direct lineage had finally gotten involved in this matter, would he crawl out of the coffin angrily to cheat the corpse?Wang Zhenyu suddenly remembered that his younger brother Zhenpeng seemed to be married to Yuan Shikai's own daughter. Strictly speaking, he and Lao Yuan were still in-laws, and now he was actually making fun of her behind his back. It's a sin!

But what surprised Wang Zhenyu the most was that the representatives sent by Wu Peifu were none other than Lu Jianzhang, the number one military strategist in the direct lineage, and his famous nephew in history, Feng Yuxiang, a defected general. These two are the biggest below Wu Peifu.

Nanjing, the compound of the Nanjing Office of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government. In front of him is Feng Yuxiang, a tall, honest man wearing a coarse military uniform.Although not a systematic one, Feng Yuxiang still gave a very heavy military salute to Wang Zhenyu: "The humble Feng Yuxiang has seen Marshal Wang."

Wang Zhenyu took a closer look at this famous figure in history, and began to read other materials about him in his mind.In fact, the name of a defecting general is nothing. Looking around, when warlords are in a melee, bribery and defection are the norm in itself.But there are not many who can play the defection to Feng Yuxiang's level, looking at the entire Republic of China. . .

In the third year of Xuantong in the Qing Dynasty, in 1911 AD, when the flames of the [-] Revolution in the south were burning more and more, Feng Yuxiang, Wang Jinming, and Shi Congyun jointly launched the Luanzhou Uprising that shook the foundation of the entire Manchu Qing Dynasty.If the Wuchang Uprising that broke out before was still far away in the south, then the Luanzhou Uprising was just around the corner.The Qing government immediately mobilized heavy troops to suppress it. This was the first time in history that people who hated Feng Yuxiang decided to defect to Feng Yuxiang.

Otherwise, there are people in the imperial court who are good officials. After the failure of the Luanzhou Uprising, Wang Jinming and Shi Congyun died heroically one after another.Logically, Feng Yuxiang was also on the list of must-kills, but the uncle who couldn't stand him was Lu Jianzhang, who followed the old Yuan's path. As a result, Feng Yuxiang insisted on sacrificing his life, but he was dismissed and deported to Baoding.

Although the Luanzhou Uprising failed, it brought great fear and mental pressure to the princes and dignitaries of the Qing Dynasty, which is incomparable to the Wuchang Uprising.

In Wang Zhenyu's original world, there were clear records of Feng Yuxiang's betrayal, a total of eight times (Lu Bu was willing to bow down).

The first Luanzhou Uprising brought down the Manchus; the second Movement to Protect the Nation brought down Yuan Shikai; the third Wuxue Cease brought down Duan Qirui;

Wu Peifu was defeated in the fourth Beijing coup; Zhang Zuolin was defeated by Guo Songling in the fifth;

The seventh split between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party overthrew Mao Zedong; the eighth Central Plains War overthrew Chiang Kai-shek.

Almost every defection has affected the direction of the history of the Republic of China, and the defection has always been for this reason, that is, Lao Feng's family.

As for why there is no ninth defection, it is composed of two reasons:

The first is during the Central Plains War. Most of Feng Yuxiang’s subordinates learned the old Feng’s defection routine.

The second is that in 1949, on the eve of the founding of New China, Feng Yuxiang returned from the United States, preparing to respond to China's call to oppose Chiang.This conflicted with the Soviet Union's strategy of planning to rule the river, so Feng Yuxiang was burned to death on the Soviet tanker. The specific reason is still a mystery.

But it doesn't matter, now he is standing in front of Wang Zhenyu, this man who is five years older than Wang Zhenyu is only 32 years old, but he is already the commander of the No.11 Division of the Zhijun Army.Of course, if this is not enough compared to Wang Zhenyu, but in Beiyang, it is synonymous with young and promising.

Wang Zhenyu was observing Feng Yuxiang, and Feng Yuxiang was observing Wang Zhenyu.Wang Zhenyu gave him the impression that he was too young, young people are enviable and jealous.Such a person holds the highest power in the twelve southern provinces, and hundreds of thousands of tiger and wolf divisions who easily defeated the Beiyang and Germans.Even his uncle judged that as long as Wang Zhenyu is not assassinated or other unexpected incidents, China is likely to be unified by him in the future.Feng Yuxiang didn't believe it at first, but when he took the train from Zhengzhou to Wuhan, he was shocked by the huge changes in Wuhan. He remembered that Feng Yuxiang passed by Wuhan when he followed Cao Kun to Sichuan to protect the police a year and a half ago.Now, just a year and a half later, the city is completely renewed and full of vitality.After arriving in Nanjing, Feng Yuxiang was greatly stimulated by the development of commerce and trade, the stability of the society, and the people's living and working in peace and contentment.He went from being very disdainful at the beginning to eager to see him later, and now he has realized his wish.

"Mr. Lang Zhai, Brother Huanzhang, please sit down wherever you want, you are welcome. I, Wang Zhenyu, have heard the name of you for a long time. I am very happy to see you today!"

"Huanzhang and I are just third-class shrimp characters, how dare you fall into the ears of the commander-in-chief, it is presumptuous to say that we came to see the commander-in-chief today..."

After exchanging pleasantries, it is natural to get straight to the point, but Lu Jianzhang deserves to be Feng Yuxiang's uncle, and the point of entry is full of justice: "Marshal, now Fengjun Zhang Ni has raised 70 troops to enter the customs. Wherever he goes, there are constant wars and disasters, and the people are displaced. Straight Li, the people in Shandong have suffered a lot from it, and it is already suffering unspeakably. Now the people in the North are waiting for you to take action to uphold justice..."

Wang Zhenyu glanced at Lu Jianzhang and thought: "That's not right, I don't know about others. I have admired your name, Lu Jianzhang and Uncle Lu Tu, for a long time. Could it be that Chen Shufan made such a turnaround in Shaanxi?"

As for Fengjun's atrocities, Wang Zhenyu has a detailed report here, and the actual situation is much more serious than what Lu Jianzhang said.

Strictly speaking, Fengjun is not an army. Although they are all equipped with modern equipment, the regiment level is equipped with Japanese military instructors.Some things are hidden in the bones, and they cannot be changed by recruiting a few foreign instructors.

Feng Jun is a bandit in his bones, so there is no need to talk about anything else.Since it is a bandit, there are bandit rules. Drinking in a big bowl and eating a big piece of meat are the rules.Feng Jun lived outside the customs for a long time, and suddenly one day swaggered into the affluent Beijing-Tianjin area, and the desire to possess and dominate in his body was unconditionally activated.

People all yearn for and pursue beautiful things, but there are still certain differences in the way of pursuit.Some are to play with and appreciate from a distance, while others are crazy to possess or even destroy.

Fengjun is obviously not the former. During the more than ten days when Fengjun was stationed in Beijing, incidents of robbery and rape emerged one after another.The Jingshi Police Department has not canceled it, but it is Feng Jun who committed the crime, which makes them very difficult.And the local hooligans in Beijing also took advantage of the situation and became Fengjun's leading party. Whichever family had more money and which girl was beautiful, Fengjun's destructive power also increased geometrically.For a time, the whole of Beijing was shrouded in white terror.

Celebrities and important government officials all protested to Zhang Zuolin, but no, the old Zhang family shook up all their property for this entry.As a result, of course, there is no money to appease the gang of bastards under him, so they can only be used to run amok on the ground in Zhili, which can be regarded as raising money on the spot.Anyway, Zhang Zuolin has a mother on the left and a bastard on the right. He scolded and scolded him, and I didn't see him clean it up. I guess he really didn't dare to clean up anyone. This time when the army entered the customs, the power of various ministries has grown on a large scale. , if the pressure is too hard, Zhang Zuolin is also afraid that the people under his hands will make trouble.

This phenomenon did not end until August 8th. On this day, the most tragic thing happened in Beijing. A dozen soldiers from the Feng army suddenly broke into the campus of Peking University (renamed Yenching University in 15). Young female students are about to kiss when they hug them.One of the female students was raped on the spot by an officer of Fengjun. The drunken officer laughed loudly and said, "The female students in Beijing are not so good, they are not as good as our Northeast women."

At this time, all the faculty and staff of Peking University surrounded them, and hundreds of students also surrounded them. Only then did Feng Jun realize that he was not carrying a gun.So a gang fight started. Three Fengjun soldiers were beaten to death by angry teachers and students, and the rest were seriously injured.The raped female student committed suicide by biting her tongue. The Peking University incident immediately triggered a strike in colleges and universities all over Beijing, businessmen went on strike, and even the men who carried water and dung in Shandong announced their closure.

Zhang Zuolin realized the seriousness of the situation this time, and ordered the execution of the remaining eleven murderers of the Fengjun army in public, and at the same time dismissed the battalion commander of the Ministry on the spot.But this has been unable to quell the hatred of the people of Zhili towards Fengjun, and in Shandong, thanks to Zhang Zongchang, a bigger civil uprising broke out. . .
