"The Chinese people are a bunch of cowards. Whenever something happens, they will run away. Such incompetent citizens are not worthy of owning such a vast land!"

Ishihara said disdainfully, through the window of the teahouse, he could clearly see the situation below, the street was full of chaotic crowds, there were all kinds of leaflets on the ground, and the military and police were yelling back and forth desperately, but the effect Also very limited.

The government also dispatched a large number of people to come forward to explain, but the speed of the explanation couldn't compare to the speed of gossip. More and more common people became agitated, and even a large number of old officials became uneasy.If the rebels came to kill them, no one would know what would happen, so it was best to run away as soon as possible.

Once these officials fled, it caused even more chaos, and the common people ran away even more. In various departments of the capital, those old people who stayed in Beiyang either fled or claimed to be sick, and almost all government agencies were paralyzed.

Looking at the chaotic crowd, Yin Rugeng also nodded with a flattering smile: "Mr. Shi Yuan is right, only the Great Japanese Empire is the country worthy of admiration in this world. Zhang Tinglan, a brat, does not know the number of days, and sooner or later he will not end well. , now is his retribution!"

Yin Rugeng gritted his teeth, seeming to hate Zhang Tinglan even more than Shi Yuan Waner.Yin Rugeng was a relatively well-known traitor during the Anti-Japanese War. When the Japanese came, the most distressing thing for the Chinese was that traitors were everywhere.In fact, these traitors were not created out of thin air, but the result of Japan's painstaking efforts.

Take Yin Rugeng as an example. He studied in Japan in his early years. After returning to China, he was known as a Japanese expert because he was familiar with the situation in Japan. In this way, he successfully became Sun Wen's staff, and then entered the Beiyang government.They are mainly engaged in activities dealing with Japanese people.

In fact, from Yin Rugeng’s experience, it can be seen that the development of traitors by the Japanese is the result of a long-term operation. They start with foreign students, buy them, and then send them to government agencies. Once the Japanese call, these people will become traitors without accident, such as Xiqia.Zhou Fuhai and others are like this.

It's just that when Yin Rugeng was speculating and drilling camps, Fengjun defeated the Japanese and led the army into the customs. The pro-Japanese faction was thrown into the cold palace at once, and Japanese experts such as Yin Rugeng were also left out.get pushed out.

After losing his iron rice bowl, Yin Rugeng reminisces about his good life in Japan.I admire Japan even more.And hated Fengjun, and soon became a member of the secret development of the Japanese spy agency.

"Shi Yuan-jun, will the empire send troops this time to kill Zhang Tinglan at once?"

Ishihara Waner's brows suddenly frowned: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. You can continue to arrange the distribution of leaflets now. Demagogue people and create chaos in Beijing. As for other things, you don't need to know."

"Yes. The villain will do it now."

Like a dog, Yin Rugeng left the teahouse in a hurry.Ishihara Waner also turned around and left, he still had a lot of things to arrange.Such a big change happened this time, in fact, it has a lot to do with the Japanese meddling behind the scenes. Of course, not only Japan, but also the United Kingdom has used all its power.

These two empires have been operating in China for quite a long time, with tentacles all over the place. They also know that Wu Peifu is a key figure, so they tried to buy Wu Peifu, but failed, so they had to start from Wu Peifu's men and let Wang Chengbin, Peng Shouxin and others come forward .

In addition, they were able to successfully break through the Jin army's defense line, which was also a military secret leaked by the Japanese. One of Yan Xishan's staff officers who was in charge of formulating a defense plan had just graduated from a Japanese non-commissioned officer school. He handed over all the defense maps of the Jin army to the rebels. In this way, the Jin army's defense line was suddenly broken through.

The Japanese were very proud of having successfully instigated this rebellion. Even if Zhang Tinglan could not be completely overthrown this time, it was still enough to shake Zhang Tinglan's foundation. The huge energy of the army, and even delaying the pace of integrating the south, can be regarded as a vent for the sinking of the Izumo.

Therefore, the Japanese spared no effort to mobilize all possible forces to create chaos. In addition, they mobilized all the troops in the embassy area to prepare for battle. If the rebels really reached Beijing, they would take immediate action.

With the intervention of the great powers, the capital became a mess. Tang Shaoyi, the prime minister of the cabinet, couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly found Zhang Tinglan.

"Zhuoyan, I just came from the street, everything is messed up, why don't you take action to deal with it, can't you just watch the chaos in the capital and wait for the rebels to come over?"

Zhang Tinglan smiled and waved his hands: "Mr. Shaochuan, sit down first, let's talk slowly."

"Speaking slowly, I can't wait to see you. I really can't figure out how you can be so relaxed."

"Mr. Shaochuan, when things have come to this point, it's because I didn't think carefully. I didn't expect that the Jin army would collapse at a touch. Otherwise, I would keep more troops in the capital, and this situation would not happen."

"Zhuoyan, this is not the time to blame yourself. A wise man will make mistakes if he thinks about it. You should quickly find a way to deal with the troubles in front of you."

Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Don't worry, as the saying goes, one person is short-witted. Now it is no longer the pattern of serving the army. It is even more necessary to establish a regularized staff system. Relying on a strong team, formulate a complete military plan, relying on one or two Individuals can’t do it, so I plan to completely reform the military system. In addition, the government also needs to be reformed, we need to establish some think tanks and recruit a large number of experts, so as to ensure scientific and reasonable decision-making.”

Tang Shaoyi was sweating anxiously, how could she still be willing to listen to these words, and hurriedly said: "Zhuoyan, what you said is correct, but the same sentence, you have to pass this hurdle in front of you before you can think about implementing other things." Otherwise, the rebels will be killed in front of us, we should have a regulation whether we go or stay, and the chaos in the capital is like this, if we don't control it, once the rebels come, we will have nothing to do but capture them!"

Zhang Tinglan suddenly smiled and said: "Mr. Shaochuan, at the beginning, I was really caught off guard, but as the saying goes, adversity sees people's hearts. Beijing is under the feet of the emperor, but it has been run by foreign powers for many years. Usually, some miscellaneous people can't see it. But now, they all jumped out, and just took this opportunity to clean up the capital, so that you and I can feel at ease."

"If you want to clean up the capital, you don't have to take such a big risk..." While Tang Shaoyi was still muttering to himself, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked hastily, "Zhuoyan, do you have your trump card?"

A smile appeared on Zhang Tinglan's face, and she nodded slightly...

"Brothers, hurry up, take Baoding, break into Beijing, glory and wealth are at your fingertips!"

Under various instigations, the rebels desperately launched an attack on Baoding like a tidal wave. There were huge crowds of people, and there were dense assault teams everywhere.They shouted and charged, with bayonets like forests and bullets raining down.

The sound of the rumbling guns is earth-shattering. Among all the warlords, Wu Peifu's troops are well-trained and well-equipped, second only to the Feng army, especially equipped with a large number of heavy artillery. These artillery have powerful lethality With great strength, the fortifications built by Fengjun were constantly being destroyed.

Rong Zhen, who was in charge of commanding the battle, felt uneasy at this time. He only had one brigade of troops, while the opponent had at least 3 people, and the number was still increasing. The offensive was very fierce, and Feng Jun wanted to stop them , it is really difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, it must be defended. Otherwise, if Baoding falls, the rebels will go straight north and threaten Beijing. That is something Rong Zhen absolutely cannot tolerate.

"fire!"

The artillery of the Feng army immediately aimed at a position of the rebels, and rushed over. Suddenly, in the sound of a violent explosion, two 150 heavy artillery pieces were blown up, and dozens of artillerymen were killed. Lighten up a little.

But at this moment, another rebel army launched an attack on the west city, and this time they also sent their only plane up.Fortunately, their planes are old and their bombs are limited in power, and their throwing is even more inaccurate, causing limited casualties.

But it greatly boosted the morale of the rebels. They charged desperately towards the city, and the cannon set off waves of metal storms. Baoding was trembling under the sound of explosions.

"Report, the outer defense line of Nancheng has fallen, requesting assistance."

"Report, West City is in a tight spot, please ask for reinforcements."

"It is reported that rebel planes bombed the city, causing serious casualties."

……

Bad news came one after another, and Rong Zhen frowned: "Tell them that there is no reinforcements, the city must be defended, otherwise come and see!"

Just as Rong Zhen was giving the order angrily, someone suddenly ran in again: "Sir, something is wrong, the gentry in Baoding rebelled, and they set fire to the city wantonly to welcome the rebels into the city."

Hearing this, Rong Zhen was spinning and almost fell to the ground. He also forgot that Baoding is the headquarters of the direct lineage. Cao Kun and Wu Peifu have been operating here for many years, and their forces are so intricate that even a strong dragon can hardly suppress a local snake. What about the weak!

"Go, follow me to kill these bastards!"

Rong Zhen didn't have many troops anymore, so he had to rush out with the guards himself. The streets of Baoding were already in chaos, with flames everywhere, and the powerful armed forces were all mobilized to create chaos everywhere.

Rong Zhen was also unceremonious, and issued an order to kill, as long as he was still running around in the city, he would be executed on the spot.Relying on decisive means, he finally saved a little bit of decline.

But just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, suddenly a soldier covered in blood stumbled over: "Sir, the rebels have blown up the East City!"

When Rong Zhen heard this, his whole body turned cold. Zhang Tinglan asked him to stay in Baoding for half a day, but now it seems that he can't do it.The shouts of killing were getting closer and closer, and the rebels had poured in from the gap into the city.

"Brothers, rush up with me, even if you lose your head, you can't lose Baoding!"

Just when they were about to fight to the death, the rebels outside the city suddenly became chaotic, and the shells crazily fell on the ranks of the rebels, and people were wiped out in pieces.

It was Fu Zuoyi of the Jin Army who came, and with their joining, the momentum of the rebel army was beaten down at once. (To be continued..)
