Qi Xieyuan's concession was both surprising and understandable to all forces. After all, Zhang Zongchang's forces were clearly placed there. Even though Zhang Zongchang was not an extremely outstanding general, the White Russian Army and Armored Forces under his command
It is really a killer weapon and makes people frightened by it.
The reason for saying this is not that the ambition of others will destroy one's own prestige, but that the power of the White Russian Army is too powerful. In just a few days, the entire Jiangsu Province has basically fallen into their hands. Now they can compete with
Apart from Sun Chuanfang, there may be no one else who can compete with him.
For Qi Xieyuan, evacuating Shanghai may be the wisest choice. At least the people who suffer are not them, but the people of Shanghai. The life and death of the people are very important to people like him, but they must be related to their own life and death.
In comparison, he would abandon the people without hesitation. This is how words such as "there is no need to worry about running out of firewood to burn the green hills" and "it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge" are understood by him here.
Qi Xieyuan's concession was undoubtedly a huge surprise to Zhang Zongchang. He had no reason not to accept such a "gift", so he openly sent troops into Shanghai. The result was exactly as he expected, and there was no ambush from the other party.
, even if Qi Xieyuan had this intention at this time, he did not have the courage.
Shanghai is a ten-mile foreign market, the most developed city in China, and the best place for Zhang Zongchang to expand his supplies. The White Russian Army and the armed forces that first entered Shanghai have regarded Shanghai as their own, and they think they can do whatever they want.
Request, as for Zhang Zongchang's military orders, they are only superficial things. Not to mention that the White Russian Army does not take it seriously. Even Zhang Zongchang himself does not take his military orders seriously, but he still has to have this thing. After all, he
It is also easier to explain to the outside world.
Zhang Zongchang's Lu army arrived in Shanghai and launched a brutal plunder of Shanghai. The wealth gained from this plunder played a vital role in expanding the strength of the Lu army, but this was also the reason why the Lu army failed.
one.
The magnificence of Shanghai completely drove Zhang Zongchang's troops crazy, and the people of Shanghai also panicked. This was a robbery, and it was a disaster. The Lu army that brought this disaster, led by the White Russian Army,
Heinous crimes were committed against the people of Shanghai.
The White Russian Army conducted a large-scale search in the city in the name of hunting down Qi Xieyuan's army. The people of Shanghai knew very well that there was no Qi Xieyuan's army here. They had already fled to unknown places, but the White Russian Army did not care about this. They
All you want is wealth.
For those seemingly wealthy businessmen, the Lu Army would not let them go. Even though they had their own guards in their wealthy mansions, they did not take them seriously for an army with tens of thousands of tiger and wolf soldiers at every turn.
For such a mansion, they are half threatening and half persuading. As long as they can come up with the conditions they offer, Lu Jun will naturally not embarrass him too much, but if they refuse to cooperate, everything will be difficult to say.
Now, whether to kill people or prevent fires, the initiative is in their own hands.
For such tigers, leopards and jackals, the average gentry businessman would choose to use money to buy peace. Even if the money will make him bankrupt, it is better than losing his life. But there are always those who cannot afford the money.
Even if Lu Jun kills them, they really can't afford that much money. Lu Jun will not be merciful to such a family at all.
Lu Jun's evil deeds went far beyond that. Wherever they went, it was like locusts crossing the border, a scene of desolation and wailing. The small shops on the roadside could not give out money, and even the tables, chairs and utensils were smashed to pieces.
, or even worse, even the house was completely burned by fire, not to mention the loss of the family.
Among them, the most cruel and inhumane White Russian Legion. Some of them are not citizens of the Republic of China, but White Russian deserters who fled to Shandong and were left behind by Zhang Zongchang. However, they do have strong combat effectiveness. In addition, they have great control over Shanghai.
The people have no feelings of compatriots, so they have no scruples and do evil without restraint in the land of Shanghai.
Compared with the relatively "moderate" approach of other Lu troops, they committed burning, killing, looting, and all kinds of evil. Not to mention that the people of Shanghai couldn't stand it, and even other troops in the Lu army scorned their methods.
.
The Lu Army needed military supplies and morale. Robbery was not out of the question, but killing people, raping women, and burning houses was really a heinous crime. However, in the face of such a situation, they did not dare to step forward to stop it. This was
The White Russian Army has a notorious reputation. They are bandits in the army and thugs in the military. In their eyes, they have no love or mercy at all. They only kill and rob. Let alone a mere commoner, they are the Lu Army.
They would slap anyone they couldn't stand without hesitation.
Ordinarily, Zhang Zongchang should have known about this situation and punished them, but Zhang Zongchang knew it, but everyone in the army felt that Zhang Zongchang's attitude towards them was to turn a blind eye. Who told them
He is the main force of the entire Lu Army. Who can let others fight? These days, fists are the last word. Only if you can beat others can you not be bullied by others. Without the White Russian Army, Zhang Zongchang's strength will be weak.
He lost a lot, so he would rather turn a blind eye than go to the White Russian Legion.
As for the deputy commander of the Belarusian Army, Milov, Zhang Zongchang was even more unwilling to take the lead. Even the international protests from Belarus, Zhang Zongchang was able to ignore it. This shows how much Zhang Zongchang relies on the Belarusian Army, so he is even more
He will not punish the actions of the White Russian Army. On the contrary, he also knows that only if these guys rob, burn, rape and vent enough will they work better for themselves, and he does not care about being raped.
Who is the target of plunder? As long as it is not the people of Shandong.
But among so many Shanghainese, doesn’t anyone stand up? No, Shanghai is not so spineless, but this person who stands up is not a soldier, a policeman, or a heroic person, but a
The shady gang boss, this person is none other than Du Yuesheng, one of the bosses of the Shanghai Youth Gang. (To be continued)
