Jagged Warlord

Qu Tongfeng, who had retreated overnight, sat on his horse with his head downcast, watching his soldiers dragging in front of and behind his horse in the same listless manner.

bang bang~ bang bang

There was a sudden commotion in the rear of Qu Tongfeng's team. The sound of guns seemed to be much closer, and some soldiers started running around and screaming.

"What's going on?" Qu Tongfeng shouted to the adjutant, "Xiao Ding, go and have a look."

"Yes." Lieutenant Xiao Ding saluted Qu Tongfeng, then rode his horse and ran to the rear of the team.

Adjutant Xiao Ding's horse hadn't run far when two loud bangs erupted in Qu Tongfeng's team, and two bombs exploded in the densely populated places of the team.

Qu Tongfeng's war horse was frightened, and he raised his hooves suddenly, almost throwing Qu Tongfeng off his horse.

"There are enemy soldiers, protect the division commander." Adjutant Mu, another staff officer, hurriedly helped Qu Tongfeng off his horse, and Qu Tongfeng's guards quickly formed a circle, enclosing Qu Tongfeng in the middle.

呯

Another crisp sound

Adjutant Mu's head jerked back, and a bloody arrow shot out from the bloody hole in his forehead.

"What's going on? Where did you shoot?" Qu Tongfeng bent down instinctively.

boom boom boom

Several more bombs exploded in the team, and Qu Tongfeng's troops became more and more chaotic. Except for the dozens of guards who surrounded Qu Tongfeng tightly, the other soldiers began to run around, looking for cover.

"Kill it~!"

da da da da da da

The grove by the roadside suddenly burst into gunshots, and Song Shun led the commando members to kill them out of the grove by the roadside like a tiger descending the mountain.

"Protect the teacher." Qu Tongfeng's guards wanted to raise their guns to fight back, but how could their single-shot bolt-action rifles be opponents of submachine guns at close range?The guards who were facing the commando were instantly swept away by the submachine guns.

"Damn it!" Qu Tongfeng raised the pistol in his hand and shot at the commandos.He hit one of the commandos, but that one quickly got back on his feet and kept charging.The commandos hiding in the woods on the side of the road used grenade grenade and sniper rifles to provide fire support for the commandos.

da da da da da da

There was another burst of shooting, and the commando led by Song Shun successfully broke through the protective circle formed by Qu Tongfeng's guards. In order to avoid bullets, Qu Tongfeng rolled on the ground. Before he could get up, the cold pistol was on the ground on his temple.

"Don't move." Song Shun strangled Qu Tongfeng's neck with one hand, and pointed a gun at Qu Tongfeng's temple with the other. "The person who told you to put down the weapon immediately."

"Huh~!" Qu Tongfeng snorted coldly, and the Beiyang soldiers who gradually calmed down around them also gradually gathered around.

Song Shun also snorted coldly, and without hesitation, a commando member pulled out a dagger and stabbed Qu Tongfeng's thigh.

"Ah~" Qu Tongfeng screamed, "Put down your guns."

The Beiyang soldiers around had no choice but to obediently throw their guns on the ground.At this time, Lin Shangyong, who was ambushing in the grove, also rushed out and drove the Beiyang prisoners together.

Only then did Qu Tongfeng realize that there were less than 100 enemy soldiers in total, and he actually captured hundreds of them.

"Little brother, whose subordinates are you?" Qu Tongfeng sat on the ground, watching the commandos bandage the wound on his thigh.

The commandos ignored him and just buried themselves in his wounds.Song Shun on the side replied: "We are the SS Moon Shadow Commando under the command of Li Mohan, the head of the Republican Army's military government."

"Moon shadow?" Qu Tongfeng looked up at the sky, a crescent moon was hanging in the sky, surrounded by stars.He joked, "Is there no shadow on the moon tonight?"

Not long after, a large number of troops swarmed in from the south, wearing not the uniforms of the Beiyang Army, but the black SS uniforms.

"Qu Weiqing, long time no see." A soldier dressed like an ordinary SS soldier appeared in front of Qu Tongfeng.The moonlight shone on his face, revealing that chiseled face.

"Jiang Baili, you have finally avenged yourself." Qu Tongfeng was very calm, "The winner is a prince and the loser is a thief, since I, Qu Tongfeng, fell into your hands, I will kill you if you want to kill me. "

Jiang Fangzhen smiled and said: "Come on, Qu Weiqing, I am a soldier, not a butcher. You are my prisoner now, and I will treat you according to our SS's "Prisoner Management Regulations."

Qu Tongfeng was taken aback, and asked with a smile, "You guys are really thoughtful."

Jiang Fangzhen smiled, waved his hands, and said to the soldiers: "You should deal with it according to the regulations."

Qu Tongfeng's tribe was destroyed almost overnight, and more than 5000 people, including the teacher Qu Tongfeng, became prisoners.Zhang Huaizhi was so frightened that he led the Fifth Division out of Shandong overnight and retreated towards Hebei. Jiang Fangzhen took the opportunity to occupy the whole territory of Wuding.

……Dividing line……

It is said that since the Beiyang Department does not want to restore the old "Convention Law", it proposes to revise a new covenant law in the same way as the Convention Conference.

On June 6, the Shanghai Navy suddenly declared independence. Li Dingxin, Commander-in-Chief of the Shanghai Navy, Lin Baoyi, Commander of the First Fleet, and Zeng Zhaolin, Commander of the Training Fleet, issued a joint declaration, declaring independence because they supported the old "Convention Law". The telegram said:

"Since the founding of Xinhai, the sea soldiers have supported the republic, and the world has seen it together. The battle of Gui Chou, based on the foundation of the Republic of China, was unshakable, so he decided to support the central government. However, the sincerity of the republic is still the same. It is also the same as the world. Forgiveness. Ever since the imperial system took place, the first uprising in southern Yunnan, the shady scene of raising security, once revealed, the world will know, but the so-called public opinions are all forged, and the so-called proponents are all forced by the power. The people are angry, the whole country is disturbed, the north and the south Stalemate, no solution. The disaster of war is imminent, and the country is on the brink of peril. All the officers and men at sea, because of this sudden change, should not stick to the common law, but only obey the good name, which is useless to the overall situation. Action, hoping to save the crisis. It is in progress, and the Yuan family has died. Although President Li has taken office today, the Beijing government still announces it in a will according to the "Contract Law" that Yuan's tampered with. How can it win the trust of the world and satisfy the hearts of the people? It is held hostage by the imperialist party. It goes without saying that the president of our country is isolated and cannot express his opinions freely. It can be deduced from this. If this is the case, it will be a disaster, and the future will be troublesome. Today, I led the navy to join the National Guard on June 25. **, with the purpose of supporting the current president and safeguarding the republic, the order of the Beijing Ministry of the Navy will never be accepted until the first year of the "Contract" is restored, the Congress meets, and the official cabinet is established. It is a once-and-for-all plan and will not be tolerated and raised. It is a disaster for a family of several people in the sea to join each other with sincerity, abide by the law, and follow the right track together to achieve law and order."

The independence of the Shanghai Navy made Duan Qirui feel that the situation was serious and he was isolated.At that time, the Chinese Navy had three fleets, and the First Fleet was the main force of the navy.This blatant independence not only seriously threatens the coastal provinces and regions under the influence of the Beiyang system, but also helps protect the Japanese troops to move northward.

The house leak coincided with the continuous night rain, and at the same time news came that Qu Tongfeng was captured in Shandong and Zhang Huaizhi fled to Hebei in a hurry. This series of blows made Duan Qirui realize the seriousness of the matter.Therefore, I no longer dared to insist on implementing the new "Provisional Law". At the same time, due to the efforts of Lin Changmin and Zhang Guogan, Li Yuanhong formally issued an order on June 6, and still abided by the "Interim Contractual Law" announced in the first year of the Republic of China. The order is as follows:

"The system of the republic puts the public opinion first. The public opinion is the only one, but the constitution. The completion of the constitution depends on the Congress. Since the National Assembly of the Republic of China was suspended on January [-], three years, it has been two years, and it has not been recalled until the founding of the country. The five-year constitution has not yet been finalized, the main foundation has not been established, and common government has no way to proceed. It is urgent to convene the National Assembly to quickly formulate the constitution and consolidate the foundation of the country by cooperating with the will of the people. Before the constitution is finalized, it still follows the announcement on March [-], the first year of the Republic of China The "Provisional Constitution" until the establishment of the Constitution. The "Presidential Election Law" announced on October [-], [-] is a part of the Constitution and should still be valid."

It also decreed: "According to the three articles of the "Provisional Constitution", the Congress will continue to be convened, and the meeting will continue from August [-] of this year. All the laws and regulations concerning the Legislative Yuan and the National Assembly of the Yuan Dynasty should be revoked immediately, and the Senate will be abolished. Specially appointed Duan Qirui as the Premier of the State Council and the heads of various ministries.” Thus, the controversial issue of the legal order came to an end.

On July 7, Li Yuanhong ordered the punishment of Yang Du, Sun Yuyun, Gu Ao, Liang Shiyi, Xia Shoutian, Zhu Qiqian, Zhou Ziqi, Xue Dake and other eight people who were the culprits of the imperial system.The Southwest Military Affairs Council agreed with Fu's wishes based on the conditions proposed, so on the same day, Tang Jiyao, Cen Chunxuan, Liang Qichao, Liu Xianshi, Lu Rongting, Chen Bingkun, Lu Gongwang, Cai E, Li Liejun, Dai Kan, Liu Cunhou, Luo Peijin, Li Dingxin, etc. jointly rescinded the proposal. , declare all government affairs of the country, and listen to the leadership of the head of state, the government and the Congress.

Hong Xian collapsed, Yuan Shikai passed away, and Liang Qichao and Cai E, teachers and students, became popular at that time.Although Li Mohan also rebelled earlier, his reputation is still relatively weak, so he also won a lot of praise, but in the end he still fell behind Liang Qichao and Cai E.

After Li Yuanhong became the polished president, he desperately hoped to win over the power to protect the country and rely on it for support. So someone suggested to Li Yuanhong to hire Liang Qichao as the secretary-general of the presidential palace. The strength of the guards is enough to contain Duan Qirui's Beiyang Department.Li Yuanhong thought so, so he called Liang Qichao on July 7, and the telegram said:

"Repeatedly inherit the training, consider the future and think deeply, seek the heart of the country, and be faithful at home. Taishan Beidou, admiration is the work. I also know that when I read the ceremony, I dare not use the cabinet members to ask each other, but I treat it like a mess. , humiliating mediocrity, Dingzi endangers the situation, setting up the old tripod to be overthrown, and the Xuxu to be destroyed, which is not only against the people's desire to govern, but also against the husband's wish to save the time. There is no suspicion of seizing love, and it can be used to discuss the Tao. Mr. is an example of human relations, and ten thousand people look up to the mirror. If you are willing to miss the country, you should not bear the sound of gold and jade. Dare to show your heart, and embrace your life."

Liang Qichao is a smart man.Why don't you know that this is a thankless job, so thank you politely.

On Double Tenth Day in the fifth year of the Republic of China, Li Yuanhong rebuilt the republic and issued a large number of honor orders as a code of reward.Sun Yat-sen was the first to be awarded the Grand Honor; Cai E, Tang Jiyao, Lu Rongting, Liang Qichao, Huang Xing, Cen Chunxuan, Li Mohan and others were awarded the honor; Duan Qirui, Wang Shizhen and Feng Guozhang were awarded the first-class Grand Ribbon Baoguang Jiahe Medal.These medals were awarded too many times. For example, the generals of the anti-imperialist faction in the Southwest and those who possessed military power in the imperialist faction of Beiyang, and even Shixu, Zai Tao, Shaoying, etc. of the imperial family of the Qing Dynasty were also awarded.So fish and dragons were mixed together, and there was a rain of medals.

On the other hand, Duan Qirui also agreed to Li Mohan's request, officially appointed Li Mohan as the governor of Shandong, and assigned a group of personnel whom Li Mohan named to Li Mohan.However, Li Mohan did not take the initiative to resign from the post of patrol envoy of the Yangtze River. At the same time, he also recommended his subordinates Ma Qian'an as the guard envoy of Eastern Henan and Xiao Wenlong as the guard envoy of Xuhuai.Duan Qirui approved one by one, and Shandong, Henan East and Huaibei were still under the control of the SS.
