ideal era

46 Qin Long Throat

After Li wanted to say that, no one answered, as if the air was frozen and solidified, and even the sound of heavy snow falling to the ground outside could be heard clearly!

There was a rustling sound outside the window, and a lot of snow slid down from a camellia tree bent by him. The branches were straight, showing dark fat leaves and blood-red flowers. The lead color of the sky is thicker.

Lin Tiechang stood up and shouted: "After Xianyang defeated Ma Anliang and counterattacked, the first regiment of the Anxi Army gathered in the Huxian area, the second regiment of the Anxi army gathered in the Liquan area, the third regiment of the Anxi army gathered in the Xingping area, and the fourth regiment of the Anxi army gathered in the Sanyuan area. So far, the Anxi National Revolutionary Army, which entered the northwest, has all been assembled, thus advancing the northwest war situation to the decisive stage of concentrating superior forces and annihilating the remnants of the Qing army in the northwest. He turned his face and said coldly in an unquestionable tone, "The general is right. Xinhai can completely occupy Gansu and Xinjiang at the end of the year!"

Li Xiang looked at the snow outside the window, turned to drink a cup of tea, and smoked a few puffs of cigarettes before saying, "Before this meeting, I have repeatedly exchanged views with Mr. Huang Keqiang on the situation of the northwest battlefield. He provided all the top-secret internal information of the Northwest League. Speaking of this, he paused and said, "They all think that although the governor's Changgeng and the patrol government Shengyun Department are the absolute loyal main force of the Manchurian people, their combat effectiveness has been greatly weakened due to the continuous heavy blows by me. Ma Anliang is a Hui people's armed force and the most effective force in the Qing army at this time. You should know that the Western Army of the Ma family has participated in it. The battle of the Eight-Nation Alliance and the Battle of Xianyang also verified that their combat effectiveness was not in vain. Therefore, the key to the decisive battle in the northwest battlefield is to annihilate Ma Anliang, the main force of the Western People's Army.

This meeting can also be said to be the mobilization meeting of the Battle of Pingliang. The parties involved in the meeting will be well aware of the importance of this meeting. These commanders who have experienced hundreds of battles know that a comprehensive confrontation with the strongest army in the northwest of the Qing army is imminent. Therefore, they were silent, but did not understand Li Xiang's combat intentions and the specific deployment of the Ezhou military headquarters.

Li wanted to stand in front of the venue full of military maps, with bright eyes and solemn expression. He sometimes pointed to the map, and sometimes with the help of gestures, he introduced the situation of the national battlefield and the situation of the northwest battlefield.

"Everyone knows that the current situation in all battlefields across the country is very good. However, because the Qing court placed its final hope on Changgeng, Shengyun, Ma Anliang, who are in Gansu, and Yuan Dahua and General Yili Ruizhi, who are in Xinjiang, we have to be mentally prepared to fight a few more big battles, hard battles! The enemy is dying and struggling, arrogant, both reactionary and stubborn. If our army does not look for fighters and launch several major battles to give the enemy annihilation, they will not admit defeat. Li wanted to look around the venue for a week and raised his voice and said, "However, our army can be used centrally, but the enemy is scattered all over the northwest. Concentrate on the enemy's main force opposite our army and defeat the enemy. Therefore, the conditions for the decisive battle in the northwest battlefield are ripe.

At this time, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly became warm, and the generals who had been listening to Li Dashuai's speech either nodded to each other or whispered, and all agreed with Li Dashuai's analysis and conclusion.

Li Xiang paused for a moment and continued to analyze: "In view of the fact that our army only has a relative advantage in the northwest battlefield, it is difficult to eliminate the main forces of the various departments of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in one battle, and we must separate them, distinguish them in order, concentrate their strength, and annihilate each other." Later, Li wanted to talk about the combat intentions of the staff and his own ideas.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the deep winter snow, the scenery is bleak. In the famous city south of the Yangtze River, Ningxia, the whole city was suddenly heavily guarded and wildly searched for the revolutionaries. For a moment, the wind was loud, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

After the victory of Wuchang, the revolution swept across the country, and the revolutionary situation in the northwest was pushed to ** with the capture of Xi'an by the Shaanxi revolutionaries.

In Ningxia, it was a government in Gansu Province. It was a populated area where Hui people lived. It was known as "Guanzhong barrier, Qinlong throat", and its strategic position was very important.

After the outbreak of the Wuchang Revolution, in the face of the turbulent revolutionary situation, Chang Geng, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, planned to unite with Yuan Dahua, the governor of Xinjiang, and General Zhirui of Yili, "In case of a Qing Dynasty crisis, contact Xin, Gan and Inner Mongolia as one, support the westward migration, temporarily plan for partial peace, and Xu Tu to recover." At the same time, the army was divided into three ways to suppress the Shaanxi Revolution. Zhang Yunshan, the governor of the Shaanxi Revolutionary Military Government, urged the Ningxia revolutionaries to quickly rebel against the Qing Dynasty. The Ningxia Alliance Branch also received an order from the headquarters of the Alliance. All actions were under the command of Li Xiang, the commander-in-chief of the Anxi Army. Li Xiang's order was to lift justice to Ningxia as soon as possible, suppress the strength of the Western Army to attack Shaanxi, and cut off the Qing court. There is traffic in the northwest.

The lead-colored sky is low and dull, and the wind and snow are flying again.

There is an inn that is ordinary, with narrow and damp stores and dilapidated signs everywhere in Ningxia.

A middle-aged man in a gray rat leather jacket stepped up the escalator in the familiar corner of the house and went straight to the small upstairs. On it, there are still five small tables that he is familiar with; the original wooden back window is replaced with glass.

"A catty of wine. - dishes? Ten oily tofu, more spicy sauce!"

As Jin Zhaolong talked to the attendant who came up with him, he walked towards the back window and sat down at a table by the window. The building is empty, and he can pick the best seat. Here, you can look at the abandoned garden downstairs and see all the people in and out of the inn.

This is the secret contact station of the military. Jin Zhaolong has also looked at many times before, sometimes in the snowy days. But he, who was born in the south, is very surprised from the eyes of the eyes of the south. Several old plum trees are full of flowers in the snow, as if they do not mean the deep winter. There is also a camellia tree next to the collapsed pavilion. More than a dozen red flowers appear from the dark green dense leaves. They are as bright as fire in the snow, angry and arrogant. Such as contempt for tourists who are willing to travel far away. At this time, Jin Zhaolong suddenly quietly thought of Feifei, and remembered what kind of attachment Rouxue in the south.

The snow in the north is dry like powder. As soon as the wind blows, it will fly like smoke...

"Sungry, wine..." The courte said lazily, put down the cups, chopsticks, wine pots and dishes, and the wine arrived.

Jin Zhaolong turned his face to the board table, arranged the utensils, and served the wine. He was a little homesick, but he took a sip of wine comfortably. The wine in the north is hot and spicy, and the oily tofu is cooked very well. Unfortunately, the spicy sauce is too thin, and people in the north don't know how to eat spicy food.

Probably because he is patrolling the city day and night, arresting revolutionaries, and dispatching troops to take strict precautions. Although this is a restaurant, there is no restaurant atmosphere. Jin Zhaolong has drunk three glasses of wine, and there are still four empty tables besides Jin Zhaolong.

Jin Zhaolong looked at the waste garden, as if he was waiting for someone. By chance, he heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs, so he couldn't help but pay attention. When he saw that it was a waiter, he pretended to look left and right, and drank two more glasses of wine.

There was another burst of footsteps on the stairs, and the sound of footsteps was much slower than that of the waiter. There were several people coming. Jin Zhaolong thought that the person who had to wait for this time must come. It is expected that when people finish walking the stairs, Jin Zhaolong looked up and stood up at the same time.

"Boss Jin, come early." The visitors are Liu Xianzhi, the branch of the Ningxia League, and Liu Huatang, the leader of the Yinchuan Brother Association. ( According to the author: Ningxia Ge Laohui mainly focuses on "Hong Gang". He calls himself the descendant of Hong Xiuquan, the leader of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, with the purpose of "anti-Qing Dynasty and restoration of the Ming Dynasty")

"Please sit down." Jin Zhaolong invited them to sit together.

Jin Zhaolong looked up at the sky and was in chaos. He took a long breath of turbid air and said coldly, "How did the news leak?"

When asked by him, Liu Xianzhi and Liu Huatang, two characters who were calling for wind and rain in Ningxia, were actually scared.

An emergency meeting attended by all parties in charge was held last night, and it was decided that the people's troops from all over the country would launch an uprising at the same time the next day. The insurgent army was mainly composed of the brother's old association and the patrol to supplement the five battalions. The troops were divided into four routes, with the participation of all ethnic groups in Han, Hui and Mongolia. Liu Xianzhi, a revolutionary, is the leader of the team. At the same time, it was decided to send Gao Zhiqing, Wang Zhanbin, Sun Xuewen, Zhu Bangke and others back to Lingzhou and Pingluo, and at the same time as Ningxia Fucheng. Unexpectedly, the news leaked. The county magistrate of Ningxia was on alert. The whole city patrolled day and night, and the revolutionary party members were searched and arrested. The troops were dispatched to be strictly guarded. Ningxia failed.

"Anyway, the news has been leaked. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to have a righteous revolution!" Jin Zhaolong is not allowed to investigate again. The current situation is similar to that of the Wuchang Revolution. So he is not in a hurry. They are more anxious than him. He took out a Chinese cigarette roll from his pocket, lit the fire in his mouth, looked at the smoke, and said thoughtfully, "Ningxia's first righteousness has not been achieved, but Lingzhou has succeeded in one stroke. According to my information, more than a thousand insurgents in Lingzhou first attacked the garrison gate, seized guns, and then besieged the county office. The state officials and defenders fled in confusion. The insurgents quickly occupied the state department and declared their success. The Lingzhou revolutionary military government was established, and Gao Dengyun was elected as the grand marshal. At the same time, he posted a notice for the people to protect the business and the people.

The success of Lingzhou Juyi?! They immediately stared at Jin Zhaolong with incredible eyes and said for a long time, "In this case, let's do it tonight!"

"You have to do it, but you have to plan well." A cunning smile flashed in Jin Zhaolong's eyes, "Now the governor of Ningxia and the protection of the town are all soldiers, and the grass and trees are all soldiers. They hurriedly recruit soldiers and organize regiments to train the new army. I have a plan, and I will be able to restore Ningxia in one fell swoop.

"Boss Jin, don't sell it. Just say it quickly."

Jin Zhaolong said proudly, "In the face of this situation, we can plan and deploy soldiers and civilians to apply falsely. When the new local army is trained, my internal strength will also be completed. At the time of righteousness, the insurgent army divided into three ways and quickly attacked the city wall and cooperated with the latent old congregation in the city.

Liu Xianzhi, the branch of the Ningxia League, and Liu Huatang, the leader of the Yinchuan elder association, were blessed and immediately enlightened.

This short meeting decided to revolt the next day. At the meeting, the leaders of the uprising were elected and the offensive front was redeployed.

Liu Xianzhi, the branch of the Ningxia League, and Liu Huatang, the leader of the old association of Yinchuan, came out of an inn one after the other, only to find that the snow was heavy. The ground had been paved more than three inches deep, and the sky was still falling like a piece of cotton wool.
