The Republic is so violent

Chapter 171 The Jade Hand Points General Record (4)
Because of this Ren Kecheng's special status, he has nothing to do with party members, nor does he have friendship with Cai E or Tang Jiyao.He has a strong relationship with Yuan Shikai, so he is the governor sent by Yuan Shikai, and he is the enemy of Cai, Tang, and Li.Although it was hostile, he couldn't resist the temptation to revise Liang Qichao's telegram. It was not a telegram written by ordinary people, but Liang Qichao.

So this Ren Kecheng's brain became hot, his mood was agitated, and he changed it!With this change, he jumped into the anti-Yuan camp.

As the saying goes, kill two birds with one stone, kill two birds with one stone.Li Liejun successfully changed Liang Qichao's manuscript and won the leadership of the uprising. At least he fought against Tang and Cai, and he also brought Ren Kecheng over.Without these two brushes, how could Li Liejun become the most powerful figure in the early years of the Republic of China?
The joining of Ren Kecheng is very important for Yuan Jun.Firstly, this person can guard the rear for the army, collect food and grass for the soldiers, and secondly, he can make a big united front, unite all the officials he knows, and call on more people to repair Yuan Shikai.

The last item is the distribution of troops. Cai E is the commander-in-chief of the First Army of the National Defense Army, and he governs four elite regiments of the Yunnan Army, who went to Sichuan to fish for land.Tang Jiyao served as the commander-in-chief of the Third Army as the commander-in-chief of the National Defense Army. He governed five echelon regiments, two columns, and an advance army, and was stationed in the old nest in Yunnan.Li Liejun is the commander-in-chief of the Second Army of the National Defense Army. He has three echelon regiments. These three echelon regiments are soldiers from other provinces. Let them go to Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, and Jiangxi. In short, it depends on Lao Li's luck. Any place is his.

The three armies swore an oath and set off.

Among the four echelons led by Cai E, the leader of the second echelon was named Gu Pinzhen.Gu Pinzhen's team consisted of two detachments, one of which was headed by Zhu Yujie.

Why talk about Zhu Yujie?

Because, Zhu Yujie used to be the captain of the student team in the Yunnan Lecture Martial Arts Hall. After graduation, he became the head of the cook and the monitor of the cooking class.Once, squad leader Zhu violated military discipline for some unknown reason, and was taken to the execution ground by the commander Zhong Lintong to be shot.It happened that Cai E was passing by and saw that the guy had a big head and mouth, so he was surprised, so he rescued Zhu Yujie and let him work under him.

Afterwards, Cai E raised an incident in Kunming, and Zhu Yujie led a group of troops to storm the governor's mansion, forcing the governor Zhong Lintong to commit suicide, and the governor Li Jingxi fled into the church.

This time, Zhu Yujie will go to Mianhuapo personally and fight his first battle to become famous.

In the future, Zhu Yujie will create the Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants, and go to Jinggangshan to join Mao Zedong's victory. From then on, he will be called "Zhu Mao" in history.

The names of Zhu De and Zhu Yujie will become widely known from this battle.

14 can not have opinions

Just as Yunnan was in full swing, three incidents happened one after another, which led to changes in the subsequent battle situation.

The first thing that happened was that Cai E's old classmate and bunk brother He Guohua came back.He Guohua was surveying the border before, so he didn't know what happened here. He arrived in Kunming from Kunyang by small steamer. Two military officers went to Daguanlou to meet him and asked him to go to the Department of Foreign Affairs to stay and rest first.

After the rest, He Guohua went to the Governor's Mansion in Wuhua Mountain to meet Tang Jiyao.After entering, he was led into an antique flower hall, where a table of delicious food had already been placed there. Cai E was sitting in front of the table and greeted He Guohua cordially: Hi, Xiao He is back.

At that time, He Guohua was extremely shocked: Cai E, how could it be you?
I was right.Cai E said: I miss my old classmate so much, I made a special trip to see you.By the way, seeing you are tired from running around, you look a bit ugly, so sit down and eat first.Xiao Zou, please accompany my guest, this is my old classmate, the relationship is called iron.

Adjutant Zou Ruoheng, with four gun-armed guards, sat in the center of Dama: Special Envoy He, sit down and eat, what are you waiting for?
Party members recalled this history full of warmth and said: He Guohua snorted, got under the table, climbed out again and said forget it, don’t call me Special Envoy He, just call me He Guohua, Cai E is When did you come back?

Zou Ruoheng did not answer He Guohua's question, but said: Generals Cai and Tang sent out telegrams against Yuan.

He Guohua sat down dejectedly: Well, I am the special envoy sent by Yuan Shikai to survey the border, and you can do whatever you want.

Zou Ruoheng smiled and said: We don't want to do anything, but we want to conduct a security check on Special Envoy He.

The guards opened the suitcase that He Guohua was carrying, searched through the contents, and then reported to Cai E: Report, there are only some border inspection documents at He Guohua's place, and no contraband was found.

Cai E ordered: My old classmate has only one advantage, timid... Just lock him up, don't scare him.

Yuan Shikai put He Guohua under house arrest, and he was not freed until Yuan Shikai died.

This is the first incident in Yunnan. It is said in history that General Cai put his old classmates under house arrest, and He Guohua was trapped in Yunnan Province.What happened at the same time as this incident was the disappearance of Zhang Zizhen, the commander of the First Division.

Zhang Zizhen was a simple-minded person. Everyone asked him to sign the persuasion form to persuade Yuan Shikai to become emperor, and he signed it.After signing, everyone objected to Yuan Shikai becoming emperor again. At that time Zhang Zizhen became anxious and said: Don't play like this, Yuan Shikai doesn't want to be emperor, you have to force him to do it, and when he is forced to become emperor, you come again You are right to protect the republic anyway, please, can we stop being so shameless?

Then Zhang Zizhen said: It is impossible for me to work with these weird people who have no promises, but if I were to kill each other, I would not be able to do it either.So what, why don't I just leave?
So Zhang Zizhen passed through the west and fled towards Beijing.When Tang Jiyao learned about it, he immediately sent someone to hunt him down.

The pursuers came to Chuxiong, where there was a Dian army stationed there, the commander of the brigade was Qu Tongfeng.Qu Tongfeng greeted him cordially, and invited the pursuers to dinner.The chaser said we have to catch Zhang Zizhen quickly, Qu Tongfeng said with a smile: "No hurry, no hurry, Zhang Zizhen hasn't grown wings, so he can't fly, everyone first brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, wash your face and eat."

Although the chaser had a mission, he couldn't restrain Qu Tongfeng's enthusiasm, so he ate first, and after he was full, he asked Qu Tongfeng: Where did Zhang Zizhen escape to now?
Qu Tongfeng said with a smile: You must have arrived in Beijing, right?It's all your fault for being greedy. If you hadn't eaten this meal, Zhang Zizhen would have been arrested.

What?You actually use delaying tactics against us?The pursuers were furious, so they arrested Qu Tongfeng.Tang Jiyao ordered Qu Tongfeng to be imprisoned in a model prison, and then hurriedly went to Cai E to discuss how to deal with the British consul Ge Fu.

This Ge Fu was the British Consul in Yunnan, and it was Zhu Erdian who sent him a telegram, asking him to persuade Cai E not to mess around.Tang and Cai discussed that the Englishman could not be seen, but seeing him would not work. Or, let's just send someone to talk to Ge Fu and see if we can get some clues.

A man named Ding Huaijin was sent to meet the Englishman Ge Fu.After the meeting, Ge Fu asked: I heard that General Cai was the first to sign the persuasion form, begging Yuan Shikai to be emperor. Is there such a thing?

Ding Huaijin: This...

Ge Fu: I heard that General Cai was the first to sign an anti-Yuan telegram against Yuan Shikai becoming emperor. Is this also true?

Ding Huaijin: That...

Ge Fu: Mr. Zhu Erdian, our Consul General, let me ask General Cai, you were the first to ask Yuan Shikai to be emperor, and you were the first to oppose him as emperor. Can you be so capricious in your behavior?

Ding Huaijin: This and that...

Geff: Which one?
Ding Huaijin: Oh, yes, that’s the thing. The reason why General Cai did this is the wish of the entire Chinese people, and I personally agree with it warmly.

Geff: ...are you in favor of this or that?

Ding Huaijin: This and that are secondary. The key is not to go against the wishes of the people. Do you have any objections to this?

Ge Fu looked up to the sky and sighed: I... I really can't have an opinion.

The intervention of the British imperialists in the anti-Yuan army was thwarted by my brave and resourceful diplomats.

15 Life and death make friends with a bosom friend
The war has begun.As mentioned earlier, Cai E led the first army out of Sichuan and entered Hunan and Hubei; Li Liejun led the second army out of Guangxi and entered Guangdong and Jiangxi; Tang Jiyao led the third army to squat in Yunnan without moving.

Here, there is another secret that can be revealed.For the former, we mentioned that in the city of Beijing, because the young prostitute Xiaofengxian’s business was sluggish and no one came to the door, Cai E used it as a tea house and invited people to dinner every day.Guess who is the person Cai E invited to dinner?

Chen Huan!

Which Chen Huan?

It is the Chen Huan who was referred to as China's No. 1 by Zhang lunatic Zhang Taiyan; it is the Chen Huan who Zhang Taiyan believes that the Republic of China will die at his hands;Moreover, Crazy Zhang angered Chen Huan by telling the truth, so Chen Huan lured Crazy Zhang into Beijing, which put Crazy Zhang under house arrest.

It is necessary to add here the misery of Madman Zhang. At this time, Mr. Zhang Taiyan moved to live in Qianliang Hutong. The monthly rent was 54 yuan. With the 54 yuan, he rented [-] rooms, seven rooms in the upper room and five rooms in the wing room. There are more than a dozen servant cooks.At this time, Mr. Taiyan's eldest daughter came to Beijing to serve her father, and she also lived in Qianliang Hutong. When the sensible eldest daughter came, Mr. Zhang Taiyan was all smiles.But a little warmth, it is difficult to wipe away his hatred of Yuan Shikai, still every day with a stylus pen and silver hook, dripping pen and ink, and writing in a big book: Die!to die!
Unexpectedly, one day, the eldest daughter hanged herself in her room for no reason, and next to the hanging corpse was Mr. Taiyan's hearty pen and ink: Die!
This incident caused infinite panic among the people in the capital, and Qianliang Hutong became known as a haunted house.But the reason why Mr. Taiyan's eldest daughter hanged herself has become a mystery forever.
