ideal era

111 overturn

Li wanted to look out of the window, and the wind and rain never stopped. The darkness in front of me is so uncertain and unpredictable, and the thoughts in my heart are ups and downs.

The ideal road is by no means a broad road. Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin's miserable ending always remind Li Xiang that the road is rugged and difficult, and there is a disaster at any time.

None of the characters in the history textbooks can be underestimated, or Li Xiang will die worse than Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin. Now I think of leaving Wuchang, but I avoid the disaster. The water in Wuchang is bottomless, and Li Xiang is not so arrogant that he dares to go there. Just looking at the experience of Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren, I know that it is a situation that can't be penetrated. By force, the end result is Jiao, Chen Houchen, or lose a bigger face than Huang Xing. Wuchang intrigued and used everything, including burying the revolution.

Li Xiang's biggest advantage is that with limited history, grasping the timing is the most critical importance.

Li Xiang showed his strength in Hubei in a short time, but Yuan Shikai did not have the advantage of prophetic history, and he was also the one who knew the best to grasp the timing. He saw the opportunity, and forced the Qing court to cry and beg him to go out of the mountain to preside over the overall situation, sit in Xinyang, and use Feng Guozhang. While Li Xiangjing was marching around Hubei, he crossed Tongbai Mountain and Hewu Shengguan, won the strong fixed point of Hubei's gateway, and obtained the momentum of building high houses. In Hubei, you can enter as soon as you say, and retreat as soon as you say retreat.

And Li thinks that he is just starting out now,

Huang Xing was defeated. Of course, he was the only one who could fight in Hubei, but it was Yuan Shikai who benefited the most, not him, Li Xiang.

"Du! Du!" The knock on the door came to mind.

Li wanted to wake up from meditation and said, "Please come in!"

Zeng Gao pushed the door in and saluted the military. In front of the dim kerosene lamp, Li Xiang's face was haggard.

Zeng Gao walked to the chair next to Li Xiang and sat down. Even if he wore a military uniform and saluted, he was lazy, or this was the glorious and noble aristocratic temperament with the big family.

Zeng Gao asked in a rare serious tone, "Has the general made a decision?" Zeng Gao asked and looked at Li Xiang with a worried look. He doesn't want to force Li Xiang anymore, but the situation on Huang Xing's side is too critical. Li Yuanhong obviously wants to see Huang Xing's jokes. Now only Li Xiang has the ability to help Huang Xing. But the matter in Hankou really hurt Li Xiang too much. If Li wanted to stand by and watch, Zeng Gao could not blame him. He could only look forward to Li Xiang, hoping that he could make a decision that took into account the overall situation.

"Isn't that what you want?" Li wanted to ask rhetorical, but he couldn't stand his eyes. Now almost only Li wants to walk out of the small building, and they all look at him like this. At the beginning, Hankou was forced to fight, and they wanted to go back to fight one by one, but now they are going to help Huang Xingdu. Everyone regards himself as a superman and hero who takes the world as his duty to save China and the world, and also regards Li Xiang as a selfless hero. He looked at Li Xiang eagerly, hoping that Li Xiang would lead them to unite with Huang Xing to kill the Beiyang Army.

Zeng Gao took a breath. Li Xiang was still the one on the Zhonghe Gate Tower, advocating the ideal Li Xiang together. Nowadays, he holds heavy soldiers and is still not swallowed up by the desire for power.

Zeng Gao laughed and said, "Of course, this is what the heart of the army and the heart of the people."

Li wanted to take a breath and sweep away the previous sad feelings, but there were still a lot of complaints in his mouth. "I just thought about it for two days, and they all looked at me one by one. Don't you force me to fight with Feng Guozhang? This hero is really a coward. The man who got it was robbed, and he had to help wipe his buttocks..."

Zeng Gao endured a smile and said, "Yes, yes. The general still came to see how to fight the war. There is no need to expect from Huang Xing. Xiaogan's command system is chaotic, and the faction is fighting, and there is no combat effectiveness.

Li wanted to be pulled back to reality, frowned and meditated, and said, "Large of the Beiyang Army went south one after another, not too much entanglement with our department. The third association of the 4th town and the 2nd town of the Beiyang Army, with a total of more than 20,000 people, has been deployed outside Xiaogan City to confront Huangxing. With the deployment of troops, there is a tendency to cut off the Huangxing supply line around Qijiawan and Lukou, while Wuchang Li Yuanhong has no intention to send people to reinforce Xiaogan. In the railway line attack and disturbance war, we found that the Beiyang Army brought a large number of new weapons such as retreating guns and Mark Heart machine guns from the north. After the Qing court used Yuan Shikai, Yuan Shikai personally sat in Xinyang. Feng Guozhang, the number one general of Yuan Shikai, has replaced Yingchang and set up a headquarters in Dawu to directly command the attack on Hankou. Let's take a look at Li Yuanhong's worship of the generals. The biggest command of Huang Xing is the Huanghuagang Uprising to command more than a hundred good people. In addition to the Hunan Associations, Li Yuanhong gave the people sent by Huang Xing, the 4th Association led by Zhang Tingfu, the 5th Association led by Xiong Bingkun, and the 2nd standard of artillery led by Cai Demao. The strength is comparable to that of the Beiyang Army, and the combat effectiveness and equipment are very different.

Zeng Gao then said: "Feng Guozhang has worked harder since Yuan Shikai sat in Xinyang. There seems to be signs of a battle encircling the deployment of attacking Xiaogan. As long as the area of Qijiawan and Lukou is cut off, the strategic encirclement will be completed. Huang Xing's defense of filial piety should not only focus his troops on the front. The rear of Xiaogan, Qijiawan, Lukou and Caidian are the only way for the enemy to encircle and attack, and also the only way for the supply line of the revolutionary army. Heavy troops should be stationed. Only in this way can we keep filial piety, persevere the war, promote uprisings across the country, and ensure our timely rescue. We still have more continuous work with Huang Xing, which can be included in giving them some advice.

Li wanted to sneer, "Are we giving less advice? Wu Zhaolin, Sun Wuzhi, are all professional military talents. Will they not know? They all looked at Huang Xing's jokes. Huang Xing also knew it, but he overestimated himself too much. We sent three groups of people to contact each other and persuaded Huang Xing to form a strategic defense together, but Huang Xing was unwilling to divide the troops because he wanted to defeat Feng Guozhang head-on and take the initiative to attack in the field. Play a beautiful victory to encourage the national revolutionary situation. The people sent to him have analyzed that the enemy is a long-trained Beiyang army. The number and quality are above that of the civilian army. If they attack him, they will lose a lot. They can only deal with it for a long time, or they can wait for the development and change of the situation. Huang Xing believes that although the people's army is the first recruitment of untrained soldiers, they are all brave, take the initiative to attack, and can give full play to its strengths. They insist on the obscene tactics of not splitting troops and not fighting strategic defense.

Li wanted to send to lobby Huang Xing for strategic defense. Wu Zhaolin and others said that they did not say it, but they agreed very much behind the scenes. When talking with Sun Wu, they also think that it should be a long-term deployment against the Qing army. Sun Wu and others not only agreed behind their backs, but also spread the false reputation of Huang Xingtu as a military strategist behind his back, but in fact, they did not speak of the rumors of positional warfare. When the words reached Huang Xing's ears, he couldn't listen to Li Xiang's opinion, thinking that Li Xiang was deliberately making him ugly. The people Li wanted to send ran back in embarrassment.

Li thought about it again and again, and again sent people to promote his strategic defense, which made Huang Xing angry. He thought that this was not conducive to the unified military action. He deliberately looked for trouble here. He did not dare to fight the Beiyang Army, so he came for a walk and disturbed the rumors of the army. In front of Li Xiang's messenger, he said rudely, "Xiaogan defense, I have my own decision and don't agree to divide the troops. You don't have to say it!" The messenger who didn't think about it came back.

Zeng Gao also knew these things. Looking at Li Xiang, he was a little impatient. He still said patiently, "The defense of Qijiawan, Lukou and Caidian is related to the defense of the whole Xiaogan. The victory or defeat of Xiaogan is related to the national revolution. While we are constantly withdrawing support, we will continue to send people to lobby.

Li Xiang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it will add more Huang Xing's impatience. You know, my impression in Huang Xing's heart is already very bad, and with the intentional smear, he can't listen to my words. He is the commander-in-chief of the front line. Although it is temporary, he is responsible for everything, and the power is also in him. No one can interfere in his actions. The first righteousness of Wuhan has attracted the attention of the whole country. Now the loss of filial piety affects the whole country. If you win, you can naturally inspire the national revolution. The timid and obscene style we suggest naturally can't get into his eyes. Huang Xing estimated that after the division of troops, how could he recover? How can the impact be recovered? If I don't support him, then he will definitely be defeated by Feng Guozhang one by one. Sometimes even I doubt my character, and it is impossible for Huang Xing not to doubt my character.

Zeng Gao finally saw that Li Xiang was still angry in his heart. He worked hard to fight Hankou. Even some people had been offended enough, but they were robbed. The previous kindness reminded Huang Xing that he was liver and lungs by him. Li Xiang didn't want to deal with Huang Xing anymore now.

Zeng Gao sat silently for a while, looking forward to the stormy night. If you don't need Huang Xing's cooperation, how can you save Huang Xing?

Li Xiang also felt that he was too excited and very negative just now, but why did he complain so much? Li thought in his heart. Finally, he slowed down and said to Zeng Gao, "As for supporting Xiaogan, we can only do our best and listen to fate. It's not that I'm negative, but that we don't have trusted partners, and we don't trust each other.
