ideal era

122 mountains and rivers (lower a)

There is still a drizzle in the sky, which seems to last until the end of the world. Zhang Jingliang got up early in the morning and first went to the Red Building of the Horse Farm to resign from Li Yuanhong. He only rode a war horse before taking his entourage out of the city to cross the river to Hankou. In the front, someone rushed to the Red Mansion of the Horse Farm to work in front of the eight-person green official sedan chair, which made the revolutionary soldiers dislike the feudal faction and pulled out the sedan chair and beat him severely. As the commander-in-chief of the People's Army, Zhang Jingliang didn't want to do such a show. He was originally a problematic person, which was even more eye-catching.

Zhang Jingliang heard Sun Wu's report at a meeting in the Red Mansion last night that more than 50,000 soldiers in Hankou had been recruited, and the young and exiles gathered in Hankou were almost collected. They had been tested once in Liujia Temple. When Zhang Jingliang and his entourage arrived in Hankou, they went straight to Liujia Temple.

In front of the ruins of Liujiamiao Station, Zhang Jingliang and his entourage saw an iron-blooded 18-star flag wet by the rain, rising in the cold wind. In the empty square of Liujia Temple, wooden villages were erected, and the police were strict. The black crows inside were all armed militia soldiers, standing in a square team against the wind and rain, not moving at all. The new military uniform just put on looks very bright and neat, and the exiles who have only been soldiers for a day have a trace of iron blood.

Zhang Jingliang couldn't help sneering in his heart, but nodded and said to Cai Jimin, the old revolutionary who accompanied him, "Hankou's hungry people have become an army. Although they are all mud legs that have not touched guns, they really have a fighting morale that dares to die." Of course, it's cannon fodder who dares to die.

Cai Jimin smiled proudly. Before answering, he suddenly heard someone in front of him shout: "Who is riding here? Come down!" Several people were shocked. When they looked together, it was a doorman with a rifle on his back, staring at them with a bad face.

Zhang Jingliang's own soldiers are used to showing off their power. As soon as they saw this situation, they were about to come forward and scold, but they were pulled by Zhang Jingliang's own leader and whispered, "Brothers can't make a bad one. Now it's different from the past. Look at Cai Jimin to deal with it."

Cai Jimin had already turned over and rode, threw the ribe, stepped forward, and whispered a few words to the doorman. The doorman nodded with a straight face, "clapped" his feet, raised his hand and made a military salute to Zhang Jingliang, and said bluntly and arrogantly, "Commander Zhang, please dismiss!"

The own soldiers who followed Zhang Jingliang could stand such anger and shouted immediately, "You dog slave, blind your dog's eyes, this is the commander-in-chief of the People's Army!"

The doorman raised his face and his nostrils were facing the sky. He said coldly, "I'm a revolutionary, not your slave." In today's world, everyone is equal. Who is your slave? You old slave, be your slave, and don't shout in front of the old man. Where did the commander-in-chief of the People's Army come from? On the night of the Wuchang Uprising, the commander-in-chief of the People's Army I saw was General Li.

Zhang Jingliang's own soldier sneered "Hey" and raised the whip to beat him. After that, Zhang Jingliang suddenly darkened his face and shouted, "Be presumptuous! Let's all get off the horse!" With that, Zhang Jingliang jumped off his horse first, and then he obeyed his own soldiers.

Zhang Jingliang was very knowledgeable, but Cai Jimin's face was not good-looking. Just by listening to the doorman's tone, I knew that he was a revolutionary who participated in the Wuchang Uprising that night. Nowadays, these people, even small soldiers, are very proud of their achievements. Now they are facing only Zhang Jingliang, and even in the face of Li Yuanhong, they are used to it. I don't know that their pride is a thorn in the hearts of Li Yuanhong and others, and they can't wait to pull it out as soon as possible.

Cai Jimin was about to say a few words about the qualifications of the old revolution, and he heard the drums and three cannons in the army. Jiang Yiwu and Zhang Zhenwu greeted the door with a dignified and solemn appearance. It's still drizzling, and their big hats are still dripping rain.

Jiang Yiwu glanced at Zhang Jingliang. The position of commander-in-chief was originally led by Huang Xing after he left, but it fell on his head because of Sun Wu's strong opposition. He saluted Zhang Jingliang with no expression and said loudly, "Welcome Commander-in-Chief Zhang!"

Zhang Jingliang also returned to the military salute with a serious expression, but suddenly became airless. He piled up smiles and took Jiang Yiwu's hand affectionately. He was not afraid of being misunderstood. He introduced the entourage one by one. Everyone greeted and entered the military camp. Zhang Jingliang looked forward to it and laughed while asking, "Where is Minister Sun?"

Minister Sun is Sun Wu, and he is short of Sanwu in strategy. Jiang Yiwu saw that he asked Sun Wu and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. You always robbed the throne of his commander-in-chief. Of course, he would not come. But he said, "Minister Sun is now patrolling the three bridges, and it has been rumored. Recently, Feng Guozhang has been moving frequently. After taking down Xiaogan, it seems that he is in a hurry to enter Fan Hankou.

"The revolutionary member went to the front line of the battlefield regardless of his own safety. He is really a person with a solid revolutionary cause!" Zhang Jingliang praised Sun Wu and looked at Jiang Yi's martial arts with a smile. "My brother was ordered to be in danger this time. Not only Li Du cares about it, but also the fathers and elders in Hubei are also very concerned about it. The national revolutionaries are also very concerned about it. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at? My brother was the commander-in-chief of the civilian army, but he was burdened and didn't bring good letters to my brother!"

In the military tent, Jiang Yiwu just sat down. Hearing this, he was not good. He was a little disheartened and didn't pay attention to it. He didn't want to leave the table. He just bowed and said, "Feng Guozhang has formed a situation of encirclement against Hankou. We don't have a good strategy to deal with it. We should be strictly responsible. Commander-in-Chief Zhang has something to say, just teach him."

Zhang Jingliang pulled out a Pegasus cigarette, smoked a fire, crossed his legs and laughed, "Where is there any 'temonition'? It's just that a group of old people in the consultation bureau were scared out by the murderous Feng Guozhang. If they had some supervision of the civilian army during the meeting, they would not be punished. Commander-in-Chief Huang has shouldered the responsibility and took the initiative to leave his post, which has nothing to do with other generals of the civilian army. Many of them are also rumors in the streets and alleys, which are not fully believed. However, the man just said that Feng Guozhang had surrounded Hankou. The Advisory Bureau did not know about this matter. He had to know it in his heart. Li Du is easy to talk, but the old man of the consultation bureau likes to make a fuss, and he doesn't have to be too careful.

Zhang Jingliang said, and his mouth was not idle. It seems that Feng Guozhang's siege of the city is all about Jiang Yiwu. It has nothing to do with Zhang Jingliang, the commander-in-chief of the People's Army, and pretended to comfort him with concern.

On this occasion, Jiang Yiwu was inconvenient to say more, so he simply thought about what was on his mind. Zhang Jingliang took over as the commander-in-chief of the People's Army. Knowing that Feng Guozhang would attack Hankou in the near future, he did not discuss military deployment and withdraw all these things. He was scaring anyone. It was clear as soon as he heard it. Whether Zhang Jingliang, the commander-in-chief of the civilian army, is qualified or not, this one thing alone is enough to chill people. Can't you find a person who is wholeheartedly revolutionary in the Wuchang City Advisory Bureau? Unexpectedly, such a person with a previous counter-revolutionary record was launched. Zhan Da left Wuchang angrily. Li Xiang was expelled from Hankou, and Huang Xing also left Hubei in dismay. The revolution has not yet succeeded, but the struggle for power and profit has happened one after another. The chaos in Changsha is the most creepy. Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin died in the chaotic army, but no one dared to collect the body, which echoes the old saying that there is no place to be buried. The more Jiang Yiwu thought about it, the colder he became, and then left Wuchang.

Zhang Jingliang turned up his slightly swollen goldfish eyes and looked at the silent Jiang Yiwu, and suddenly said, "There is one thing that Li Du has discussed at a meeting of the Advisory Bureau, and I also need to ask my brother to pay more attention. The official yarn factories in Hanyang Iron Factory, Hanyang Arsenal, Yangxia Town, and other government-run factory enterprises. It's okay if Li wants to be nationalized after rectification. I heard that Xinhua Foundation has participated in the shares. Li thought that this is just a public and private pocket. It's amazing!"

Wuchang has recovered state-owned assets, and now he is thinking about Li Xiang's private property. Xiong Bingkun listened, and a mass of anger suddenly rose in his chest. These gentry of the consultation bureau could not see half of them during the war; these Chinese businessmen in Hankou only forced out 180,000 yuan with guns when raising money, of which 100,000 yuan was made by Li Ziyun alone, and it was more than that. Li wants to just rectify those companies that are about to go bankrupt in the Qing court. More than half of them have just been on the right track. With the momentum of profit, they rushed up like hungry dogs! When Song Jiaoren was there, there was still a front line, and there was no need to deprive Li Xiang of shares. This is really too compelling. Because of their discussion, Xiong Bingkun's identity was so low that he couldn't interrupt, but his hot temper was about to explode. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally felt unbearable, so he shouted to Zhang Zhenwu around him, "It is said that the people's army has been defeated. Since it is the fault of the civilian generals, it should be sent to the military law to deal with it; the people's army drove away and was killed by the tarts. The rotten place has to be rectified, right? Some people pay out of their own pockets to help rectify, but some people say that they have their own personal pockets. People who do things are wrong everywhere. Who is willing to go to war like this? Who is willing to revolutionize? The general is cold-hearted. How can we fight this battle? Is the current Wuchang military government still a revolutionary military government?

This is not ridiculing, it is simply a heart attack. Zhang Jingliang's face turned gloomy in an instant. He didn't expect that a small doorman would embarrass himself in the door. He had the prime minister's guts and put up with it in order to take care of the overall situation. Now a Xiong Bingkun is actually sarcastic about himself on this occasion. He really doesn't take his commander-in-chief of the People's Army seriously. Zhang Jingliang took his wife as a hostage and won the position of commander-in-chief of the civilian army in order to serve the kindness of the Qing Dynasty. Originally, he wanted to stir up the Wuchang Bandit Party more and more chaotic it was. However, after entering Hankou, he was repeatedly ridiculed by the bandit party's subordinates in public. How could he bear it? Mud Bodhisattva also has fire, not to mention Zhang Jingliang. Zhang Jingliang was so angry that his face was even more gloomy than the ** rain outside the camp. A trace of sinister flashed in his eyes staring at Xiong Bingkun, but he just smiled and said, "All the revolutionaries are so angry!" Don't you talk about the difference between superiors and subordinates? Any person can yell at me, the commander-in-chief. Where is the prestige of my commander-in-chief? How can military orders be passed? If the three armies don't obey, I should ask, how to fight this battle? If the Wuchang military government is not a revolutionary military government, will it still be a bandit party? The Wuchang Uprising was originally for revolution. The official property left by the Qing court was originally the property of the state. Wuchang, as the provisional central government, nationalized the state-owned assets left by the Qing court, which was a natural matter. Am I wrong? Now the shares occupied by his Xinhua consortium from state-owned assets are state property. Am I wronged by him?

Xiong Bingkun sat on his back, leaned his back to the chair and put on the air of me as an old man. He said, "Since Commander-in-Chief Zhang asked, how dare I say nothing. Feng Guozhang threatened Hankou, and the soldiers of the people's army shouldered the responsibility of defending Hankou. It's a big trouble. How dare we neglect it at all? As long as Commander-in-Chief Zhang gives a combat order, the soldiers will go through fire and water. And the commander-in-chief said bluntly that Li Shuai's public was full of his own pockets, which was too heart-wounding. I heard that out of the great righteousness of the revolution and the integrity and conscience of a revolutionary, I can't help but help Li Shuai defend it. Most of the assets of these government-run enterprises are the property of Zhang Zhidong's foreign affairs. In recent years, Hubei bureaucrats have already emptied out the assets of these government-run enterprises. Some of them are on the verge of bankruptcy, and some have actually gone bankrupt, leaving only one shell. Li Shuai not only spent money to help repay the debt and bring these enterprises back to life. Li Shuai is the boss of these enterprises, and he has the right to own shares. Even if the Wuchang government wants to nationalize it in the name of the provisional central government, it will neither contribute nor pay money when rectifying these bankrupt enterprises. Now I'm greedy for Li Shuai's shares. You also need to take a few taels of silver. What's the harm in redeeming it from Li Shuai's hand?

"What are you talking about?" Cai Jimin had no good impression of Li Xiang. He originally agreed with the practice of the Advisory Council. Listening to Xiong Bingkun's words, he asked, "This is originally state property. As the highest officer of Hankou, Li Xiang was his responsibility to rectify state-owned enterprises at that time. After the enterprise is rectified, how can the shares be transferred to Li Xiang's hands?

Jiang Yiwu would rather listen to the rain outside the account than listen to their boring quarrels. It is said that Li Xiang's hands are a little unclean, but they are much cleaner than those in the consultative bureau. Li wants to make money fiercely, and spends money fiercely. If he hadn't made a fortune, how could he double the wages of Hankou workers on his own? Why did he revoke the complicated tax clearance in all parts of Hubei? Why did you swear to exempt Hubei from agricultural tax for thousands of years? Jiang Yiwu was also from a poor family and agreed with Li Xiang's policy. Jiang Yiwu thought more and more and more he felt that he was overweight. Although Li Xiang withdrew from Hankou sadly, this policy must continue, and his Xinhua consortium must also be protected. He couldn't resist the commander-in-chief of the civilian army and did not hesitate to compete with the Wuchang Advisory Bureau, so he said coldly, "This share was not picked up by Li Shuaibai, but spent half of his Xinhua consortium. That is to say, the workers of the Sichuan-Han Railway were fighting to protect the road. The Qing government ignored the interests of the people and led to the railway trend, which led to the Wuchang Uprising and the independence of the thirteen southern provinces, which was the trigger of the revolution. Is it possible that because the Manchu and Qing government was in power, the Hanchuan Railway, which was built by countless people's blood and sweat, was handed over to the Manchu Qing Emperor?

Jiang Yiwu came up with this great topic, which is the fundamental purpose of this bourgeois revolution. Legalizing personal assets is a major event for capitalists to support the revolution. As soon as Jiang Yiwu's words came out, if anyone still forced Li Xiang's shares, it would be no different from the counter-revolution. No one dared to say anything for a moment.

Zhang Jingliang's face has not looked good for a long time. He is sincere to provoke trouble. Because he can't find a word to refute Jiang Yiwu, he said, "Feng Guozhang besieged Hankou, and the war is imminent. I don't know what military deployments have been made by my brother and his strategic colleagues to deal with the previous crisis."

Jiang Yiwu knew that he intended to make things difficult, and the commander-in-chief of the civilian army was Zhang Jingliang, but he should also ask. He replied cautiously, "The Beiyang Army surrounded Hankou from the three directions of Caidian, Xiaogan and Huangpo, and the posture was from one to the main attack, two directions to assist, or at least one direction to assist. However, the colleagues in the strategy department agreed that the troops gathered by Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui in Xiaogan were only about 30,000. Feng Guozhang would not disperse the use of his troops, but concentrated all his troops in one place to form an absolute advantage in the civilian army and eat the main force of the Hankou People's Army in one bite.

Zhang Jingliang didn't want to listen to any hostile analysis or any combat deployment. He interrupted: "The recent expansion of the civilian army is huge, and the ammunition supply is insufficient. One cannon and a row of bullets.

Xiong Bingkun stood up and shouted, "One bullet, and a row of bullets." It's not enough for a quarter of an hour to start a war. How can you fight with Feng Guozhang? Then the soldiers in the account began to talk with a "buzz".

Zhang Jingliang slapped the case and immediately said to them, "I'm the commander-in-chief of the People's Army!" This is a military order! Who dares to talk too much? I dismissed him!"

Zhang Jingliang's official prestige in the Qing court for many years broke out at this moment. This sudden thunderous anger stunned all people. Jiang Yiwu also stood up, but his mouth was speechless. He just stood still and his face was snow-white. The wind and rain outside the tent blew in with a piercing chill.

Zhang Jingliang left this cruel words and walked out of the camp with his entourage. He only felt the drizzle on his face, warm as spring. He looked around, and there was no one.
