Blood-quenched mountains and rivers

Yang Wei changed the sky and changed the day. He only used a few people under his command to replace Xia Wei, who was originally the commander in chief of defending Wuhan's outskirts, with Li Mingrui, the deputy commander. This is why Yang Wei arranged for Yu Zuobai to win over Li Mingrui. It was easier for Xia Wei to win over and more likely to be loyal to the party and state. As for the commander-in-chief or the deputy commander, whoever got the position was all in the hands of Yang Wei.

Before the war started, the defenders of the city had become their own family members. Chiang Kai-shek was full of praise for Yang Wei's strategy, and Yang Wei continued: "Principal, the Guangxi faction has been broken up, and it is a good time to disintegrate it in one fell swoop. , I feel that there is still one person at this time who is best to win over."

The candidate proposed by Yang Wei is He Jian. This person's political inclinations are chaotic, and he can be said to be a good hand in adapting to the wind. He is especially greedy for power.

Yang Yongtai questioned Yang Wei's suggestion. He Jian was supported by Li Zongren himself. How could he make trouble for Li Zongren at this juncture?

There was no distinction between the two, but in all fairness, after these incidents, Chiang Kai-shek was more inclined to Yang Wei's suggestion, and immediately entrusted Yang Wei to win over He Jian.Blood quenching mountains and rivers 221

In Yang Wei's view, the reason why He Jian is easy to win over is not only because of He Jian's clinging to power, but also because the current situation in the Guangxi Clan has taken a turn for the worse. Morale is low, and there is a lot of worry about the Jianggui war. If you can make good use of this great opportunity, it will be easy to win over most of the officers and generals.

Yang Yongtai had no hope for Yang Wei's trip, and cynicism was indispensable. He only hoped that Yang Wei's success would be more than failure, and he tried to restore Chiang Kai-shek's trust in him. He Jian was brought over, and Li Jishen's former subordinates, Chen Jitang and Chen Mingshu, were exchanged for the two official hats of Guangdong Appeasement Director and Guangdong Provincial "Chairman".

The wealth of Guangdong Province should not be sacrificed for the squandering and sacrifice of a faction or faction. Whether it is He Jian, Chen Jitang or Chen Mingshu, they all have the same idea at this time, that is, since Li Zongren and Li Jishen are already in danger, the Guangxi faction is obviously at a disadvantage. Naturally, playing by ear is the most beneficial behavior for oneself. The word loyalty is really a bit stupid in this situation. The old ship has been broken, so it is natural to seek a new way out, and Chiang Kai-shek is a good backer.

Yang Wei's wishful thinking was accurate, and this move was a draw from the bottom of the pot. Now the Guangxi Clan is devastated, with only scattered soldiers left. The disheartened Li Zongren had to order his generals to abandon Wuhan, and fled back to Guangxi in embarrassment.

So far, the war between Jiang and Gui officially started on March 18, 27, and it only took more than a week to disintegrate the Gui family. The Huguang area has changed.

And Feng Yuxiang became Chiang Kai-shek's next target.

Long before the Chiang-Gui war started, Chiang Kai-shek never thought that he would attack Feng Yuxiang. The reason was that he did not have enough confidence in defeating the Guangxi faction. For this reason, Chiang Kai-shek also sent Shao Lizi to Shaanxi to meet Feng Yuxiang, claiming that as long as Feng Yuxiang Sending troops to help Chiang Kai-shek attack the Guangxi faction will surely be rewarded. One of the rewards is to promote Feng Yuxiang as the head of the Executive Yuan, and the other is to hand over one of the two provinces of Hubei and Anhui to Feng Yuxiang to select as the sphere of influence of the Northwest Army.

If it was in the past, such a rich and attractive reward would definitely be enough to move Feng Yuxiang's heart, but the current situation is extraordinary. The risk of falling into the company of the defeated army is really daunting.

After thinking about it for a while, Feng Yuxiang decided to dispatch troops and generals to ensure his own territory. After all, it was more suitable for him to watch tigers fighting from a distance. Wan Jingbing is not a cannon fodder.On the other hand, Shen Xinqian will be able to recharge his energy and recharge his batteries. Feng Yuxiang thinks that Jiang Gui's strength is equal, so it's better to let them fight fiercely. At that time, he will catch him by surprise with Bian Zhuang's trick of stabbing a tiger. The fisherman reaps the benefits.

The self-satisfied Feng Yuxiang immediately started dispatching operations.

The four most valued generals under Feng Yuxiang are Han Fuju, Shi Yousan, Sun Liangcheng and Sun Lianzhong. Chiang Kai-shek's big hand made Feng Yuxiang very nervous, and he started dispatching activities without even taking care of covering up, and arranged Han Fuqu in the south of the Beijing-Hanzhou line. Duan and Shi Yousan were arranged in Nanyang, Henan, in the north. Feng Yuxiang, who acted cautiously, even transferred Sun Liangcheng, who had already served as the "chairman" of the Shandong government, to the west of Henan as the general reserve team.

Three of the four major generals were deployed to the front by Feng Yuxiang, and Feng Yuxiang's defense was well known to everyone, but no matter how hard Shao Lizi tried, Feng Yuxiang remained unmoved.

Although he knew that he had shown rebellion in this move, and with Chiang Kai-shek's keenness, it was impossible not to notice it, but at this time Feng Yuxiang could not care so much. It is much better to be rebellious first than to be restrained later, not to mention There is still another conclusion about the success or failure of the Jianggui dispute.

Feng Yuxiang brewed a pot of good tea, cut pastries, and was about to sit down and watch the great show of fighting between dragons and tigers. But he didn't expect that after the dragon came out, the defeated tiger would return to the mountain. Lao Jiang sang a full house, Before Feng Yuxiang came back to his senses, Jiang Jun had already won a complete victory.

The bench was not hot yet, and a good show ended inexplicably. Feng Yuxiang, who came back to his senses, realized that he hadn't bought a ticket yet, and immediately issued a telegram at Chiang Kai-shek's request, expressing his willingness to discuss the Guangxi family with Jiang Jun.

Watching a play without buying a ticket will inevitably lead to violent beatings, and refilling the ticket after watching the play will lead to more severe beatings. Feng Yuxiang also naively thought that his resignation as an afterthought and electrification would make up for it, and wait for Chiang Kai-shek to deliver his official position to his door.

Feng Yuxiang, who still doesn't know the situation, said complacently: "Don't be in a hurry to fight and transport troops. Although our Northwest Army didn't send a single soldier in the Jianggui War, in name it was enough for the headmaster. The headmaster will never Go back on your word, right?"

Feng Yuxiang was still full of anger when he said this, but after waiting for a few days, Feng Yuxiang lost his confidence and jumped around in the room every day, yelling and cursing. He had offended the Guangxi faction by making a telegram for Chiang Kai-shek, so how could he throw himself away now? the back of the head.

Feng Yuxiang, who did not get an official title, held a secret meeting at the moment, and his subordinates sent telegrams one after another. Under the banner of justice and morality, Feng Yuxiang complained, and strongly supported Feng Yuxiang as the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army of the Party and National Salvation Army. , Asking Chiang Kai-shek to go down to let the virtuous.Blood quenching mountains and rivers 221

After the momentum was built, Feng Yuxiang stood up calmly, claiming that the Nanjing "government" has lost the qualification to represent the whole country because it controls the three major parties, so it wants to crusade for the sake of the people of the world.

Feng Yuxiang thought that the Northwest Army was powerful, and with such a force, even if Chiang Kai-shek refused to let him be a virtuous man, he would confer himself an official and rank himself.

However, what Feng Yuxiang didn't expect was that compared with the Guangxi army, his Northwest Army could not resist the silver bullet offensive, because behind Chiang Kai-shek, there was a man with a hand and an eye to the sky.
