(Second update! Please vote for me!)

The last rain of early summer began to fall in patter, and the border of northern Jiangsu was filled with mist.

In the headquarters of the Third Division of the Xuzhou Military Government, there was lightning and thunder. The brigade commanders of the Third Division of the First Army of the Army were all sullen and held their breath and did not dare to say anything. The atmosphere was so tense that a spark fell to the ground. , it will blow the roof into the sky with a bang.

The officer in the lieutenant general uniform sitting at the front seat slightly lowered his brows, with no expression on his polite face. Leng Yuqiu glanced at the officers of the Third Division who were sitting on both sides of the table. He had just returned from Nanjing. , said in a tone that was not loud but full of majesty.

"Yuan Shikai was bent on revolution. Seeing that our party won the election, he disregarded the law and assassinated the chairman of our party. Although he was tried and investigated in court, the law could not stop Yuan Ni's ambition. In the past few months, Yuan Shikai even mobilized heavy troops in an attempt to suppress us. Wait, Zhang Xun and other remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are ordered to come to Xuzhou. As Japanese soldiers, how can we sit back and watch?"

Although his strength was inferior to others, in the face of Yuan Shikai's perverse actions, Leng Yuqiu, who regarded himself as a revolutionary soldier, could not swallow his breath. When the southern army was dispatched, Yuan Shikai fed Leng Yuqiu a lot of Coptis. First, the disarmament, and then the Central Committee Without paying Junzhang, the Third Division now uses the Hanyang-made ones originally supplied by Wuchang, and Junzhang has been in debt for several months. But in the face of the peace talks between the north and the south, he swallowed back all the words he wanted to say.

Not believing Yuan Shikai, coupled with Yuan Shikai's suppression of the "Third Japanese Division" for more than a year, Leng Yuqiu had already seen through Yuan Shikai. That man's heart was more poisonous than a scorpion, and assassinating Song Jiaoren was the first step. , the next step is to suppress it by force. He, Leng Yuqiu, has never been a master who refuses to admit defeat. Although his strength is not as good as others, he naturally wants to show off on the battlefield.

"What the teacher said is absolutely true"

Everyone immediately replied in unison. Officials spoke in official terms, so naturally they would not say anything else at this time.

"If you want to defend the enemy, you must first stabilize the rear. Lianyungang Liuhe Company and Yuan Ni communicate with each other and contact the bandits. They want to attack from the rear when our army is resisting Yuan Ni. Liuhe Company and Yuan Ni are the same thing. If they are allowed to act so recklessly, If this continues, it will definitely lead to the destruction of the country. Sooner or later, China will also be destroyed in the hands of people like them. Our Third Division has always maintained a revolutionary tradition. At this time, we should rise up bravely to eradicate Yuan Ni and save the country."

At this time, Leng Yuqiu became excited, and her voice became louder and louder, making the table snap.

Listening to the commander's words, Fang Yanjing, the chief of staff of the 12th Regiment, frowned from time to time. It seemed that Commander Leng was really preparing to attack Lianyungang.

As soon as Leng Yuqiu's voice fell, the division chief of staff Shi Fangsheng walked to the map and gestured.

"This time our division launched defense on the spot in Xuzhou to achieve a situation of standing firm and waiting for reinforcements. Our division deployed as follows: the 10th Regiment moved in the direction of Liguoyi 30 kilometers north of Xuzhou and waited for orders to demolish the area south of Hanzhuang. At the railway point of Xuzhou, we occupied the Xuzhou Telegraph Office, cut off north-south traffic and communications, and built a forward defense line. The 11th Regiment withdrew to the main city of Xuzhou, built a defense line along the city, and was responsible for suppressing bandits. The 12th Regiment gathered its troops one by one, and waited until the troops were at sea After the prefectures were consolidated, they stationed in Lianyungang. If they encountered resistance, they were immediately punished as being traitors and punished on the spot.'

After the chief of staff issued the order, Leng Yuqiu glanced at everyone and said.

"What do you have to say?"

The officers present at the scene were mostly surprised when they heard the chief of staff's deployment. Although they knew that a war with Yuan Shikai would only happen sooner or later, they just wondered what the reason for stationing in Lianyungang was. Li Zhiyuan from Liuhe has a close relationship with Yuan Shikai.

It's a fact. Kenuo said that he is collaborating with bandits, which is a bit too much in the future. If he is so rich, does he need to collude with bandits?

Only a handful of people know how Lianyungang is "connected with bandits". The rules in the army have always been like this. As the division commander, Leng Yuqiu can make a hole in the ground with his spit. No one dares to say no.

Yes, no one spoke.

At this time, Fang Yanjing stood up and stared at Shi Fangsheng with squinting eyes.

"I would like to ask Chief of Staff Shi, why are you deploying like this? Now that Yuan Ni is eyeing him, our division has insufficient strength. We should gather our troops and concentrate them in Xuzhou to wait for reinforcements. Why did we send out a regiment before the battle started?

"Although Lianyun is a gangster, is it worth dividing our troops for such a small matter?"

Just as Shi Fang Sheng was about to speak, Leng Yuqiu took over.

"Our army is now short of soldiers and weapons, so if Lianyungang is rebelled, its products can be confiscated as rebel property to replenish military resources. Wasn't it because the Provisional Government suffered a big loss because it had no money?"

Leng Yuqiu's frankness only shocked everyone. They looked at the teacher in surprise. This bandit suppressor had really become a "clear bandit".

"But..." Fang Yanjing still wanted to speak, but Leng Yuqiu blocked him and said solemnly.

"This matter can only be like this. We are soldiers of the Communist Party. In order to be successful, we must not stick to trivial matters. What's more, Li Zhiyuan brought money to gather bandits from all over northern Jiangsu, intending to use the bandits to take credit from the Yuan family. On this occasion

At this critical juncture, we, the ** soldiers, should fight against them and rectify the law."

Although Leng Yuqiu's voice was not loud, anyone could still taste the coldness in his words.

Seeing that Fang Yanjing had hit a wall, he had always intended to recommend his brother to be the leader of the 12th regiment, so Shi Fangsheng, who was extremely dissatisfied with Fang Yanjing, who was in charge of the 12th regiment, said in a half-hearted manner.

"How is it? Chief of Staff Fang, do you understand?"

There was clearly a sting in his words, and there was a hint of contempt in the corner of his mouth, especially when he mentioned the chief of staff, Shi Fangsheng even deliberately emphasized the word "staff officer". As for the chief, I almost heard it.

not see.

Seeing Shi Fang Sheng's appearance, Fang Yanjing wanted to step forward and bite him a few times. At that moment, a fire surged to the top of the door, and the veins on his neck bulged. But the fire was suppressed in an instant.

The major general himself is just a lieutenant colonel. If he offends him rashly, he may be able to seize an excuse to remove himself from the position of chief of staff, and then stuff himself into his staff room as a staff officer.

Although he had his own ideas in mind and knew that it was not appropriate to have a decisive moment with Shi Fang Sheng in person, he still belittled him in front of so many people, clearly trying to get his head under his pants. What happened to the young and energetic Fang Yan Jing?

Can hold back the fire

Looking up at the chief of staff, Fang Yanjing immediately responded.

"I don't understand at all, so I want to ask Chief of Staff Shi to give me advice. We are all upright ** soldiers. How come we have forgotten the creed of not disturbing the people and not causing chaos? Yes, we ** soldiers are not as rich as Yuan Shikai, so why do we have Xuzhou City?

The common people support us, not because we do not disturb the people or cause chaos. If Yuan Shikai comes, we will fight the general against the general. Even if we fight him, we will die. I also admit that soldiers will always die.

One day, I died on the battlefield. It was a well-deserved death, but if you let me go to Lianyun, Commander"

Turning his face, Fang Yanjing said to the teacher who was staring at him.

"We are the Third Division of the First Army of the Republic of China. The 12th Regiment is responsible for suppressing bandits. But now that the enemy is facing us, I would rather poke around in Xuzhou City and try to fight Yuan Shikai."

Although his heart was filled with anger and he had forgotten his sense of proportion, Fang Yanjing was not a fool. He naturally knew what to say and what not to say. He could not say that the Third Division had become a "bandit army", but he knew that what he had mentioned

The division commander can no longer keep this suggestion on his face, and he will not touch himself for the time being. Military morale is something...

"Fang Pengyuan, you..."

"alright"

Before Shifang could say anything, Leng Yuqiu snorted coldly and said.

"The 12th Regiment has been suppressing bandits for more than half a year and has worked hard. It was Chief of Staff Shi who did not think carefully and swapped the tasks of the 12th Regiment and the 11th Regiment."

After saying that, Leng Yuqiu looked up at Fang Yanjing, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but in the end he said nothing.

"Pengyuan, you..."

Almost as soon as the meeting ended, some people shook their heads at Fang Yanjing, but Fang Yanjing just left the military government without saying a word. He didn't even ride a horse when he went out. He just walked there with his head lowered and walked slowly.

Walking.

Looking at the unattractive brother from a distance, Wang Yifa, who had just come out of the restaurant, was stunned for a moment, and then said hello.

"Pengyuan, what are you..."

"Brother, let's go into the house and talk."

With a greeting in hand, Fang Yanjing entered the restaurant. After entering the private room, he sat there with his head lowered and remained silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head.

"Brother, we are going to war with Yuan Shikai"

"That's all?"

Pour a glass of wine for his brother, Wang Yifa's eyes opened slightly.

"Fight, fight, f*ck it"

After muttering, the somewhat drunk Wang Yifa continued to mutter.

"If we can't protect everything, everyone will feel relieved in this battle."

Others may not understand the meaning of the words, but Fang Yanjing understands it very well. The meaning couldn't be more straightforward. Wang Yifa is different from others. He came from the Jiangsu New Army. He doesn't understand the big principles of **.

, without asking, Fang Yanjing actually envied him now.

"Teacher, Commander"

After hesitating, Fang Yanjing told what happened at the meeting. Wang Yifa, who was holding the peanuts on the plate with chopsticks, opened his eyes and took a long time to say a word.

"It's such a bad day, now we've become fucking bandits"

"Who says it's not"

Taking a sip of wine, Fang Yanjing forced out a wry smile and wanted to speak, but he hesitated.

"The fourth brother is very kind to us brothers."

Fang Yanjing nodded, the fourth child was really good to them.

"As brothers, we can say whatever we want..."

"Brother, what do you mean..."

"The fourth child has nothing to say to our brothers. At this time, no matter what we do, we have to..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Yifa stopped being angry. Sometimes it was better not to explain something clearly, as long as the two of them knew it well.

"Should we send someone to inform the fourth child?"

Shaking his head, Wang Yifa took a sip of wine.

"We can't handle this matter like this. We have to think about it. There are some things that we might not be able to predict once we sit down..."

Looking up at Fang Yanjing, Wang Yifa poured him a glass of wine, then half-squinted his eyes and wrote a few words on the table.

"So, we have to think about it carefully"...
