The Republic of Heroes

Seeing that the troubled times had come, Mei Yunliang knew that her family wealth had become fat in the eyes of outsiders, so she secretly chose a place to hide all the gold she had accumulated over the past ten years.Changsha Ma Peixuan recruited troops and turned the patrol battalion into his own team, turning himself into the brigade commander of the Republic of China major general.With the expansion of the army, the continuous war, the sharp increase in the consumption of weapons and ammunition, and the military salaries obtained from the search of the people are not enough to make ends meet. If things go on like this, the situation will be exhausted, so I came up with the idea of ​​my old partner Mei Yunliang. At first, I just came to persuade him to donate. Who knows what he just said Half were rejected verbally.Ma Peixuan was furious, so he bought the water bandit and entered the Mei Mansion at night to rob. More than [-] members of the Mei family were killed, and only Mei Jinxue escaped by hiding in the well.

When Ma Peizhen learned that the Mei family had been killed by the whole family, he was furious. He didn't get the gold, and even wiped out the whole family. This spread out that there is no place for his Ma family in the world.In a fit of anger, he led his troops to wipe out that stupid thief.In the end, a little water bandit learned that there was a young lady in the Mei family who was still alive. Seeing her hiding in the well, she was moved with compassion and kept silent.Ma Peixuan was overjoyed, and immediately contacted Hunjianglong, a giant in Mishui, and offered [-] oceans to buy the surviving daughter of the Mei family.

......

The major newspapers in Changsha reported the incident overwhelmingly. The crimes committed by the two horses were too numerous to record. Celebrities, gentry, and people with real power are all silent, and the public opinion is raging. Who dares to go against the current?

The military court concluded the case within three days, and the Ma brothers were all sentenced to execution by firing squad.

On the morning of November 29th, Changsha City was empty of thousands of people. The Ma brothers were tied to a carriage by Wuhuada, walked around the city for public display, and finally executed in public in front of the Municipal Square.The common people applauded and applauded.The Ma brothers have been rampant in Changsha for more than ten years, and now they are happy to be executed. The people feel that this brigade commander is different from the generals in the past, and can do practical things for the people.

The two heads won the hearts of Changsha.

Wu Xiaoliang was in full swing in Changsha. Duan Qirui from the Beijing Prime Minister's Office signed his name on the letter of appointment and handed it to Xu Shuzheng, "Youzheng, take it to Feng Huafu for stamping." In just half a year, a student was referred to the Overseer, and no one could say that he was in a daze, because this boy really has the ability to secure the position of the Overseer.In the three battles in Hunan, Wei Yongchang was defeated first, and then Cai E was defeated. Changsha was captured in the three wars and Tan Haoming was driven away.A few days ago, Fu Liangzuo and Tan Yankai jointly recommended him to be the successor of the Governor of Hunan. Wang Ruxian also called to second the proposal. I heard that he has recently made a big splash in Changsha, withdrawing military power and winning the hearts of the people, killing two birds with one stone.All these piles, one by one, even a veteran who has been in the political arena for half his life may not be able to sway as freely as Wu Weizhong.It's good to let him supervise Hunan, after all, his seniority is shallow and he needs the support of the central government, and he is far more obedient than Zhang Jingyao and his like.

Xu Shuzheng accepted the letter of appointment, and said with a smile, "This son is full of surprises, Mr. Zhi did not miss the wrong person that day."

"Youzheng, don't involve too much experience in the Northwest Frontier Defense Preparatory Office you mentioned. After all, the south needs you to help me watch it." Duan Qirui didn't agree with Xu Shuzheng's establishment of the Northwest Frontier Defense Preparatory Office. The unification of the north and the south is important, and he thought about it, "If that Wu Weizhong is here, he would be a good candidate."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhi, Shuzheng has his own measure. The civil strife in Tsarist Russia is a good time for us to recover the lost land. If they wait for their civil strife to subside, I am afraid that the lost land in the north will never come back." Xu Shuzheng's eyes were rare when he said this. Deep down, he hopes to make great achievements, and soldiers want to expand their territories like the prosperous Han and Tang Dynasties.

Duan Qirui knew he couldn't convince him, so he waved his hand to signal him to back down.

In Xinhua Palace, Feng Guozhang looked at the letter of appointment handed over by Xu Shuzheng, and his heart was filled with anger. How about you, Duan Zhiquan, you dare to mention him as a military governor after half a year as a soldier. Is it your own backyard to be the State Council?What is my Xinhua Palace?Is it your printed box?When the letter of appointment was about to be thrown on the table, "I can't seal this seal!" In fact, if Zhang Jingyao and Ni Sichong were the generation, he would have stamped it half-heartedly, but Wu Xiaoliang had made him ashamed and never had a chance to express his anger. How can you easily let go of the opportunity when you are at your own gunpoint.

Xu Shuzheng raised his eyebrows, did the stamping machine take the wrong medicine today?In the past, I stamped the seal without looking at it, but now I have to shake myself if I am not happy at this critical point.

"Why don't you cover it?" He asked very bluntly.

Feng Guozhang saw that Xu Shuzheng was deflated, and secretly vented his anger. For more than half a year, the president with no power has tortured him to the point of madness. If he had known this, he would have continued to be his happy warlord in Nanjing. No one dared to disobey him.Now a cat or a dog wants to make trouble with him, which is tolerable or unbearable.

Xu Shuzheng didn't wait for him to answer, he slapped the table hard, and said coldly: "President, today's seal, you have to get it, or you have to get it if you don't."

Feng Guozhang's blood surged, Duan Zhiquan was just like that, you, Xu Youzheng, are you, and you are domineering over me, it's a big deal.

"Okay, okay, I'm quitting this big president, I'll take the seat for you, and you can do whatever you want."

After saying that, he got up and slammed the door angrily.

When Feng Guozhang returned home, he didn't pack his things, and ordered the guards to take him directly to the station. He wanted to go back to Jiangnan overnight, and he didn't want to stay in Beijing for more than a minute.

When the special train arrived at Langfang, Lv Jiancao, head of the First Brigade of the Beijing-Tianjin Police Command in Langfang, ordered the train to be stopped and boarded to ask President Feng Guozhang for instructions.Feng only said that he was going back to Nanjing to attend the military meeting. Lu Jiancao was instructed by Duan Qirui to stop Feng Guozhang. Of course, he could not let him go south, so he replied: "Why do you want to hold a military meeting? Beijing is the best." Then he ordered his subordinates to escort the president back to Beijing.

Langfang Station was full of Lu Jiancao's soldiers inside and out. Feng Guozhang had no choice but to return to Beijing, but he made a statement that it was absolutely impossible to seal Wu Xiaoliang's appointment as the governor of Hunan. The warlord may be able to seal, which can be regarded as a concession he made in desperation.

After the president's departure, Wu Xiaoliang was excluded from the selection of Hunan Governor.At present, there are only two candidates for the Anhui generals, one is Zhang Jingyao, and the other is Ni Sichong.However, Zhang Jingyao's army burned, killed and looted in Hunan, which was extremely unpopular with the people. In addition to the disastrous defeat in the Hunan campaign, it was obviously no longer appropriate. Ni Sichong regarded Fujian as his foundation and made it clear that he did not want to go to Hunan.
