The Republic of Heroes

Chapter 58 The Three Giants of Changsha

The three most powerful giants in the city of Changsha gathered in the Governor's Mansion in Hunan, each with their own thoughts and stories.Tan Yankai couldn't help it at first, he still had a major matter to get the support and understanding of the two of them.

"Now that the war in Hunan is at an early stage of peace, bandits are rampant everywhere, the province's military strength is insufficient, and the people are suffering. It is better to call Zhao Yiwu, who is worrying in Hengshan Dingyou, back to the provincial capital, so as to share the worries between Commander Qing and Brigadier Wu." Tan Yankai watched eagerly after finishing speaking. See how the two react.

Fu Liangzuo stroked his beard with his hands, without saying a word, like an old monk in meditation.Wu Xiaoliang sneered in his heart: The fox's tail finally came out. In the previous life, Zhao Hengxi and you, Tan Yankai, ruled Hunan for many years. Today, if you want to exchange favors with Shun Shui, isn't it a dream?A hand full of good cards is in his own hands, how can he give up the general power.On the face, he remained calm, and said embarrassedly: "Zhao Yiwu was sentenced to imprisonment during the reign of President Yuan Da. Whether to use it or not can be decided by the central government. Brother Zu'an's proposal and I will truthfully report it to the Prime Minister for a decision."

Zhao Hengxi has always supported Hunan's autonomy and actively opposed the Beiyang Central Government. During the Second Revolution, he was captured by Tang Xiangming, who was then the governor of Hunan. He returned to Hunan to serve as the commander of the first division of the Hunan Army.When Fu Liangzuo was in charge of Hunan, Zhao Hengxi's old father died, so he was ordered to return to Dingyou to guard the system and took the opportunity to seize the military power.

What Wu Xiaoliang said is like kicking the ball to Duan Qirui. Duan Qirui will definitely not care about Tan Yankai's face. He has always hated these repeated elements, so how could he give military power.

Only then did Fu Liangzuo clear his throat, picked up the tea bowl on the table, took a sip, and said, "Well, Weizhong and I will definitely convey the meaning of Zuan'an to Zhishuai." Fu Liangzuo's attitude was very clear, that is Stand by the Beiyang star who is under [-] years old.

Tan Yankai's eyes dimmed for a while, and the attitude of the two was as expected, but there was still a deep sense of frustration. A person who was used to being a mother-in-law suddenly became a daughter-in-law, and he was still very uncomfortable with this sudden change of roles.Embarrassed smile said: "I would also like to thank Shuai Qing and Weizhong for their kind words in front of the Prime Minister."

Fu Liangzuo smiled dryly, and said again and again: "It's natural, it's natural, it should be so." He picked up the tea bowl again, and found that it had bottomed out, so he threw the tea bowl back on the table resentfully, causing a burst of excitement in the quiet room. Discordant clattering.I had to cough for a while, and said: "Brother Zu'an, as you said, Changsha's preliminary decision not only needs to maintain law and order, but also the price of the city must be restored quickly. As a governor, you are the parents of the common people. light"

Tan Yankai heard the meaning of Fu Liangzuo's words, he made himself feel at ease to be governor, manage civil affairs well, and don't always think about military power.Seriously replied: "Don't worry about Qing Shuai, it is Yan Kai's duty to stabilize the market price and appease the hearts of the people."

"That's good, that's good..." Fu Liangzuo nodded repeatedly, and he didn't want to continue this topic, so he talked about international current situation.

"I heard that Russia has also started a revolution, and Bushak has taken over."

Wu Xiaoliang's heart moved. Since entering the military academy, the international situation has been tightly blocked, all kinds of news have been delayed, and various incidents have neglected such a big thing.After the October Revolution, Russia will be in chaos for four or five years. This is a great opportunity for China to regain the rights and interests in the north that were occupied by Russia.

Wu Xiaoliang and Tan Yankai were thinking about their own thoughts, Fu Liangzuo didn't get a response, so he asked Wu Xiaoliang directly: "Weizhong, you have learned a lot of new things in school, why is this Bu Ke going to be the president of Russia?"

"Master Qing, the Bolsheviks are a political party in Russia, meaning the majority."

"Oh? So it's a political party."

"However, the Bolsheviks are very different from most political parties in other countries. They are composed of workers, peasants and soldiers." Wu Xiaoliang explained in depth.

"Nonsense, isn't it all messed up by handing over the country to these people?" Fu Liangzuo is an absolute conservative, slapping the table and shouting nonsense, and then said: "If we make a scene like this, you and I will be killed." I'm afraid it's not guaranteed."

Wu Xiaoliang remained silent. What the common people fear most are officials and soldiers. Another way of thinking can be said to be that they hate officials and soldiers the most. Once in power, there is no reason not to settle accounts later.Suddenly a thought occurred to him, wondering where Mao Taizu was at this time?

The words were not speculative, Tan Yankai was very bored, so he got up and left, while Wu Xiaoliang stayed to discuss with Fu Liangzuo how to arrange Wang Ruxian.

Fu Liangzuo meant that after the mission in Hunan was over, the Eighth Beiyang Division could return to town and stay in Hunan to waste food.Wu Xiaoliang believed that the opposite was true. Hunan was initially established, and Lu Rongting always regarded Hunan as a buffer zone between him and the north.With one more division, you can calmly deal with any accidents. The rations are worth it.

In the end, the two reached an agreement that Wang Ruxian's Beiyang Eighth Division would stay in Pingjiang and send a telegram to Beijing tomorrow.

Fu Liangzuo patted his head, thinking of something, "Before Tan Zuan came, Zhang Xunchen sent me a telegram to enter Hunan again, does Weizhong care?"

The last time Zhang Jingyao led troops into Hunan, he was defeated by Cai E and fled back to Hubei. When he came again this time, he was suspected of bullying Wu Xiaoliang, who was a late learner.

Wu Xiaoliang sneered: "Let him come, it's going to rain, can you stop him?"

Fu Liangzuo hastily waved his hands and said: "Weizhong is not allowed, absolutely not. Zhang Xunchen entered Hunan to fight for the position of warlord by not relying on soldiers, but on the leader Duan Zhishuai."

Wu Xiaoliang immediately realized that, yes, if he and Zhang Jingyao were to choose one as the Governor of Hunan, Duan Qirui would definitely not choose himself as a newcomer, Zhang Jingyao would be the top candidate regardless of his qualifications or his personal relationship.So he cupped his hands and thanked: "Thank you for the reminder Qingshuai."

"To prevent Zhang Xunchen from entering Sichuan, you can't use your fourth brigade, nor can you use Wang Shaofu's eighth division. The first division of the local Hunan army is the most suitable. Last time Zhang Xunchen went to Hunan to plunder, this is just an excuse to refuse Zhang." Fu Liangzuo continued to make suggestions, this governor of Hunan became his biggest failure in his official career, the rumors in the cabinet have leaked out, his governor will be taken down soon, and to make up for his regret, he has spared no effort in supporting Wu Xiaoliang to fight for the position of governor of Hunan.

Wu Xiaoliang nodded and said: "Commander Qing's intention is very good, let the Hunan Army stop Zhang Xunchen, the first brigade of the Hunan Army and the fourth mixed brigade have had a lot of conflicts in recent days, sending them away is a heartache for Xiaoliang."

The First Brigade of the Hunan Army guarding Changsha retreated to Xiangxi with Tan Yankai when Tan Haoming occupied Changsha. Now that he returned triumphantly, he was overwhelmed by the Fourth Beiyang Mixed Brigade. He also became more domineering, and various disputes and frictions between the two armies continued, causing Wu Xiaoliang a headache.
