New Warlords 1909

The last psychological will was completely disintegrated under the cold bayonet.It's just in time, we are still worrying about surrendering and you can't see it.Surrender, we really surrendered sincerely. I beg your bayonets to grow eyes and stop stabbing randomly, okay?

(Thank you everyone, the third overhaul of the land reform chapter has been carried out, which caused this chapter to be a bit late~.~)

46 Confiscation of Homes and Fields

The battle in Hefei was even more suspenseless. I thought that the Hefei City Defense, which only had a few patrolmen and a thousand guards, should be easily taken down.Unexpectedly, several times in a row, the loss was huge.According to the firepower, there are [-] defenders at the east gate alone.What is even more frustrating is that the defenders of Hefei actually set up four Maxim heavy machine guns on the city wall.Defeated, desperate, which bastard said that the Hefei defenders only have a thousand newly recruited guards.Isn't the Maxim heavy machine gun only equipped by Hua Fei's main new army?

If there are four heavy machine guns on each of the four city gates.Not to mention that they still have [-] defenders, even if there are only [-] defenders, it is not easy for the regiments and miscellaneous soldiers who lack artillery support to take down the city wall.

Just after the initial confidence was completely destroyed, dense gunshots came from the direction of Sanhe!what happened?Could it be that Ma Tie and the others captured the Huazhai?Captured Hua Fei?But it's not right, why is the gunshot getting closer and closer!And... moreover, this crisp gunshot sounded exactly the same as the gunshots of the Hefei defenders. They were all in the tune of Springfield Type 103!

Finally someone came to his senses, let go of his feet, and ran!The situation is already clear, Ma Tie's 1 people were ambushed, and the entire army was wiped out.How long has it been?In less than half an hour, more than 1 people were engulfed.Monster, finally understand what it means to hear is believing, and finally understand why Hua Lengzi only has [-] new troops, so he dared to attack Nanjing.This kind of combat power, this kind of killing speed, is even more terrifying than foreigners!

"Come on, hand in your gun and don't kill!"

As the main force of the 1 new army from Sanhe attacked overwhelmingly, a regiment of new troops in Hefei city and nearly [-] student troops also rushed out of the city, chasing and beating the fleeing regiment. .A part of the unarmed student army just took the guns of the surrendered prisoners and joined the pursuing army.It was a great battle. Most of these student soldiers have never seen a real battle. They were a little scared when they saw more than [-] people besieging the city.But the situation took a turn for the worse, and they changed from the defensive side to the attacking side in an instant.One by one, they didn't follow behind those rout soldiers, and chased them fiercely, venting their suffocation due to school regulations and military discipline.

Just when they were about to chase him in the dark, the trumpet sounded to gather the team.At the same time, teams of gendarmerie came out with flashlights in their hands, shining their faces like ice.What?Do you dare to return to the team?That's a disobedience to military orders!If you are caught by the gendarmerie, even if you are a student of the Jagged Military Academy, I am afraid that you will not be so happy if you beg to drop out of school.

"Order, the students of the Jagged Military Academy and a group of patrolmen return to the city immediately to assist Hefei's city defense order!"

"Order, the first regiment of the new army will go to the east of the city to Chao County, the second regiment to the west of the city to Shucheng, and the third regiment to the south of the city to Lujiang Wuwei. All families involved in the riot along the way, whether they are local tyrants or squires, will be temporarily detained. Family property, land deeds confiscated, and all key members involved in the rebellion arrested! Gendarmerie supervises with the army! All militias accompany the army to assist!"

Before dawn, Ma Shihai, the head of the Ma family, stayed up all night, sitting in the hall with an oil lamp on, waiting for news quietly with his nephews and nephews.The dense gunfire in Hefei in the distance has stopped, and no one knows the result.

"Old...Master, it's not good, it's not good. Then...that fool Hua led a thousand new troops and came after him!"

A loyal servant of the Ma family, covered in wounds, stumbled into the yard, weeping weakly.

"What? Where is the horse iron? Where is the horse iron?" Although Ma Shihai had a bad premonition, he still couldn't restrain the fear in his heart when he heard such bad news, and stood up tremblingly and said urgently.

"Ma... the third young master... he... is dead!"

"What!" Ma Shihai collapsed on the chair as if all his strength had been drained.When the sound of his nephews leaving in a panic woke him up, he suddenly realized, and asked anxiously, "How many people escaped? Why are you alone?"

"Old...Master, they...they are all dead. Even...even if they don't die, they are on the way...on the way and escaped!"

Although the servants of the Ma family suffered heavy casualties and many were captured, many escaped from the ambush and hurried back home in embarrassment.But before they could stop to catch their breath, they saw in horror that Hua Lengzi led a new army of [-] main forces to chase after him!This frightened them out of their wits, and some lost their guns in the process of fleeing.If you want to go back now, what are you going to use to fight Hua Lengzi?Besides, at this moment, who has the guts to confront that fool, why not just hide and save your life!

A thousand new troops quickly surrounded the Ma family.Although Guo Tong really wanted to stand out and give some ultimatum, the Ma family was obviously different from the battle in Hefei back then, it was a deadly enemy!So I had to hide behind the defense body piled up with sandbags, holding a simple loudspeaker made of iron and shouting, "Listen, people of the Ma family, your counter-revolutionary attempt to rebel against the military government has failed. Hurry up!" Surrender, strive to mitigate the crime, and stop making unnecessary resistance."

"You still have 3 minutes, if you don't surrender, we will attack with arms, don't hesitate!"

As soon as Guo Tong finished speaking, Hua Fei was already standing behind him, and said coldly, "Start attacking!"

"Ah! Ah?" Guo Tong couldn't react at all for a while, "But... Commander, less than 3 minute has passed in 1 minutes!"

"Order, attack immediately!"

"Yes!"

For the behind-the-scenes planners of this operation, the Ma family has always been the most active one.From Butler Liu, I learned that the Ma family and the Hua family have enmity for generations, and there have been many fights. The reason for the enmity is unknown even to Steward Liu, but this hatred is absolutely irreconcilable!

Therefore, whether it was to kill the chickens to warn the monkeys, or to avenge his personal revenge, Hua Fei did not want the Ma family to have any possibility of rising.With his order given, the attack began immediately.The Ma family, whose entire servants and guards were evacuated, had almost no defensive strength, and was easily attacked by the new army.

All the sons, nephews and descendants of the Ma family squatted obediently in the yard without any resistance.Only Ma Shihai, the head of the Ma family, was still sitting on the chair, with a Mauser pistol on the table in his left hand.More than a dozen new army soldiers raised their guns high and pointed at Ma Shihai, but this old man looked very calm!

"Ma Shihai, Patriarch Ma, you've lost!" Hua Fei, under the protection of a group of guards, strode into Ma's house, staring at Ma Shihai coldly, saying without emotion.

"You are Hua Fei?" Ma Shihai didn't run away because of this, but stared at Hua Fei with vicissitudes, and asked infinitely tired.

"Hand over the land deed, you have already lost!"

Ma Shihai didn't pay attention to Hua Fei's words, but smiled bleakly, and picked up the Mauser pistol on the table.This action made Guo Tong and other guards tense up, quickly stood in front of Hua Fei, surrounded him, raised their guns and shouted, "Put down your weapon, put down your weapon immediately!"

Ma Shihai turned a deaf ear, but he did not point the gun at Hua Fei, but slowly put the gun to his upper and lower jaw, stared at Hua Fei, and said very sadly, "My life is not lost to Hua Fuyuan. I just, no Give birth to a son like you!"

boom!Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Ma Shihai pulled the trigger.

47 windfall

On the afternoon of the second day, newsboys on the streets of Shanghai poured out again, holding their numbers in their hands, and shouting, "Extras, super extras. An armed rebellion broke out in Luzhou Prefecture, and Anhui Military and Political Chief Hua Fei bloodily suppressed it!"

"Extraordinary, extraordinarily, local tyrants and gentry from all over Luzhou Prefecture are seriously dissatisfied with the Land Reform Act, and launched a riot, which was suppressed by the Anhui Military and Political Chief with an iron fist!"

"Extra, the latest military situation of the Anhui riots. Hua Lengzi's [-] new troops completely defeated the [-] regiments to practice armed forces. Many village gentry and patriarchs were killed in the battle, their wealth was confiscated, and their land was confiscated!"

After a series of extra-account news, everyone who was shocked for a while was collectively silent.It was too unexpected, too violent, this fool Hua is too capable of causing trouble.

Ordinary citizens responded silently, and some people exclaimed with admiration, this Hua Fei is really capable.You said it hasn't stopped for a few days, yet such a big incident happened again!

The central government of Nanjing was also silent. After all, Hua Fei also implemented the land reform bill according to the law.If there is a mistake, he should not have borrowed the 100 million silver dollars from him in the first place, and should not have passed any land reform bill because of this.But who would have thought that this Hua Fei could be so troublesome.Who would have thought that those country gentlemen would actually riot with arms!So what if you don't stay silent?Is it because of this that Hua Fei was removed from the post of military and political commander?Could it be that they sent troops to attack that Hua Lengzi?But was he wrong?However, is the teacher famous?

The Beiyang forces in the north were also silent. The news of Hua Fei's disagreement with the Nanjing Provisional Government had long been known to them.Now this Hua Lengzi seemed to be in a panic, and started fighting with the local gentry again.I'm really confused, I don't know good or bad, I don't know the depth.If you offend these people, can you, Hua Fei, stay in Luzhou Mansion?Toss it, and when you have nowhere to go, come and take refuge in my Beiyang Army.Although you are greedy for money and reckless, you are indeed good at war.

The governors and warlords in the southern provinces were also silent. Everyone was watching a show, wondering why the Nanjing government had introduced such a bill.Well now, there is something wrong with Hua Leng in the front, maybe this bill will be suspended.Why didn't he make the matter a little bigger, it would definitely be more exciting!

The squires of other state capitals in Anhui also had to remain silent, after all, the matter had nothing to do with themselves.Everyone just rejoiced in their hearts. Fortunately, this fool Hua was implementing the land reform bill in Luzhou Prefecture.Fortunately, this Hua Lengzi was not selected as the governor of Anhui.Lucky, lucky!

The country gentry and local tyrants who did not participate in the riots in Luzhou were also extremely silent.In just one night, more than 2 regiments of armed forces fell apart, and the main force of Hua Fei's new army was said to have suffered almost no losses.In just one night, the Ma family, Fang family, Shen family and other prominent patriarchs committed suicide or were killed one after another.There will be a new reshuffle of the local forces in the entire Luzhou Prefecture.This Hua Fei was too stunned and violent.However, because of this, many country gentlemen were afraid.Many people are considering whether to accept this land reform bill.After all, if this is the case, you can still get compensation from the land bond, and you can also preserve part of the land, and at least the property in the family will not be brutally confiscated!If it doesn't work, let's go to another place to buy land and leave Luzhou Mansion, counting him as a fool!It's just a pity, I don't know if this land bond can be used in other places!

Hua Fei was also silent, moreover smiling from ear to ear.More than a dozen local tyrants and squires, the Hua family was just a family of middle-class landlords with hundreds of acres of land, and their wealth accumulated hundreds of thousands of silver dollars.So you can imagine how much wealth the families of the dozen or so local tyrants who participated in the riots, many of whom were big local tyrants, would have.Hua Fei hasn't figured out the exact figures yet, but he sent all the militiamen to Ma's house to carry them, and it took him a day to move all the silver coins and gold and silver in his house.

Of course, Hua Fei also treated the dozen or so big local tyrants who participated in the rebellion differently.For the stubborn and resolute members of the Ma family, the family property was confiscated, the land was confiscated, and the main members of the family were punished one after another.For those squires who quickly compromised and had a certain reputation, Hua Fei dealt with them lightly.Apart from convicting a group of first offenders and imposing a certain fine, they did not embezzle the property of their entire family.

Kill chickens to make an example to monkeys, and give both grace and power!As for the disobedient forces, we must quickly wipe them out in the bud with lightning speed, so that they will never stand up.For the forces that cooperate, it is necessary to give them enough sweetness and benefits.

As long as the gentry and landowners accept the land reform bill, not only can they enjoy the established incentives for industrial and commercial policies, but the products they produce can also receive priority orders from the military government.In this way, they are encouraged to invest their idle funds in the industrial and commercial fields to accelerate the industrialization process of the region.

For these prisoners of the Ding Huyuan, because many of them have a lot of loyalty to the original owner, Hua Fei has no intention of recruiting them at all.Instead, let everyone put up twenty silver dollars for bail before they can be released home.Otherwise, they will stay in hard labor for one to three years.Anyway, now that Luzhou Mansion is about to enter a comprehensive construction period, there are many places where labor is needed.Now there is a free supply of labor, so there is no use for nothing.

Seven days after the incident, all the aftermath was gradually resolved.According to preliminary estimates, the confiscated and confiscated silver coins amounted to more than 200 million yuan, and more than [-] gold and silver ingots, which did not include the funds of local tyrants such as the Ma family and some rare calligraphy and paintings in the bank.For these funds, Hua Fei has no plans to do anything yet.Let those bankers and bankers be proud of having a few more unowned deposits, maybe they will secretly support Hua Fei's behavior!

This number scared Hua Fei for hours.Damn, is this just a dream? What is windfall?This is simply... It is even more enjoyable than moving the treasury of the Qing court. These local tyrants are really too rich.Well, we need to strengthen intelligence reconnaissance to see if there are still people who want to riot, just do it again.Hua Fei thought impulsively.

Hua Fei's wish would obviously not come true when he led his troops to besiege Ma's house.Wangshen such as the Zhang family and Wang family near Hefei really thought about taking the opportunity to seize Hefei.But even if Hefei is captured, so what.As long as Hua Fei's main new army returns to the division, no one can guarantee that Hefei City can be defended.Besides, the Ma family just jumped into this big trap arranged by Hua Fei.Who knows if he, Hua Fei, will still have a backup this time!

From the intelligence scouts sent back one after another, most of the big gentry and local tyrants have calmed down.Since the rest of the country gentry kept to themselves, it meant that they had accepted the land reform bill to some extent, and they could not but accept it.

After a series of vigorous actions, all the surrounding forces and the outside world reacted collectively in silence, which was completely beyond Hua Fei's expectations.With such a big event happening this time, it is expected that there may be turmoil, and there may even be a big turmoil.However, none of them appeared in the end, which made him very puzzled!

Bewildered or puzzled, Hua Fei's movements didn't stop at all.After suppressing the riot with strong iron and blood, Hua Fei began to personally visit some prominent families and gentry in Luzhou Prefecture.While explaining the incident to them, make it clear to them.As long as the government of the Republic of China does not fail, their land bonds can definitely be exchanged for cash at maturity.

Although doing so could not ease the repulsion of the local tyrants and gentry towards him, Hua Fei at least showed a gesture, a gesture that both sides benefit from cooperation, and you lose from fighting.

Before officially starting to collect and collect land statistics, Hua Fei, in the name of the military and political chief, declared that in order to maintain the security and stability of the territory, he decided to confiscate all private guns and weapons.Of course, Hua Fei did not confiscate the guns for free, but compensated them with a certain price according to the type and age of the guns.Those who hide guns and fail to turn them in within the time limit shall be charged with the crime of banditry.

Cooperating with the decree on confiscating guns, security groups from all over the country launched an investigation one after another.At the same time, the main new army stationed on the front line of Sanhe in Hefei also began to move.Vigorously confiscate all the bandit and lake bandit forces in the territory, so that they cannot hide in Luzhou.After this centralized governance, the law and order in the entire Luzhou Prefecture has been cleared up.In doing so, it not only eliminates the danger of scattered wandering warriors in various places in the last battle, but also reduces the pressure and obstacles faced in the subsequent land acquisition statistics.
