Beiyang reactionaries

Now that things are moving in the direction he planned, Yang Wei will of course come out to support him.

"Governor, it is impossible for us to ban smoking in Sichuan. It is impossible to truly succeed in banning smoking. Because as long as there is profit, opium merchants can find channels to buy and sell. Therefore, it is the best way to control opium from the source. The most thorough way. Moreover, we and Yunnan have signed the "Sichuan-Yunnan Smoking Ban Statement". Now that Tang Jiyu is revealed to be the leader of opium merchants in Yunnan, as long as Tang Jiyao is in Yunnan, it is impossible for Yunnan itself to ban smoking. In this case , the Governor has the right and the obligation to take care of this matter as the supervisor of the Southwest Smoking Ban. Brothers Tang Jiyao and Tang Jiyu, if they continue to occupy Yunnan, more and more opium will appear. We should send troops decisively now, and the internal forces of the Yunnan Army Let all the righteous people expel Tang Jiyao together."

Yang Wei spoke loudly.

If Deng Hanxiang expresses his views as the Secretary-General of the Governor's Mansion, it represents the opinion of the Governor's Mansion.Now that Yang Wei speaks out in support of Duan Xun, that is the support of senior government officials.Although Yang Wei cannot represent all the senior officials of the Sichuan provincial government, he can represent a large number of people.

Both military and political leaders have expressed their views.

"The opium dealer deserves to be killed."

After Yang Wei supported Duan Xun, You Min, who had never expressed his views in such meetings, suddenly spoke up.

rigid.

You Min has a very hard temper.In fact, Duan Xun asked You Min to serve as the chief inspector of the Military Law Department at the beginning, but he needed a capable and fair person at that time.That's why You Min was appointed Chief Inspector of the Military Judiciary Division.

But this position actually limits Youmin's ability.

You Min was very good at reorganizing the army in the year of [-] and later in Shandong. He was a graduate of the Zhenger Eight Classics Military Academy.Leading troops to fight is his job, but his temper is too stubborn, Duan Xun is not good at handing over the troops to You Min.

You Min knew it too.

Because from the beginning of the War to Protect the Nation, You Min and Duan Xun had many different opinions, and they quarreled when they met.You Min has always been dissatisfied with Duan Xun's suppression of the National Defense Army.So Duan Xun always avoids You Min, because You Min's temper is really bad.

However, since Duan Xun entered Chengdu, You Min's status in the army has also increased.No one despised You Min just because Duan Xun and You Min didn't deal with each other.You Min is also very capable, and the construction of the Military Law Department of Duan Xun's Ministry is very good.However, despite his high status in the military, You Min seldom speaks during any meeting, and basically does not express his opinion.

You Min didn't even attend general military meetings, and didn't give Duan Xun any face at all.

But today You Min rarely spoke.

"Brother Tang Jiyao must leave Yunnan. The existence of the two of them will always tarnish the honor of the Yunnan Army and the Revolutionary Army."

After finishing speaking, You Min kept silent.

Duan Xun smiled slightly on it.Duan Xun understood what You Min meant.Although Duan Xun and You Min don't deal with each other and fight each other when they meet, they both know each other very well.Not to mention that the two have worked together in the past few years, they were classmates as early as ten years ago.

In You Min's heart, he did not support Duan Xun's reaching into Yunnan.But You Min didn't like Tang Jiyao even more.In fact, since the Revolution of [-], the Beiyang Army represented by Yuan Shikai has always emphasized that it is a legally inherited country and regime from the Manchu Qing.Therefore, Yuan Shikai's head of the Beiyang Army generally would not comment too much on the Manchu Qing Dynasty, because most of them were from Manchu Qing officials.The Southern Revolutionary Party was the complete opposite, constantly criticizing the Manchus, and then emphasizing their anti-Qing origins.Because in this way, you can emphasize your own justice, and you can keep promoting your own achievements.Therefore, the Revolutionary Party relies on this kind of justice to win over those young students.

How did the revolutionary party, or the warlords in the south, stop the powerful Beiyang army.It is relying on the reputation accumulated during the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and constantly shouting the word "revolution", relying on this to attract young people, and relying on this to fight against the Beiyang Army.

But now?

Who is Duan Qirui?Who is Xu Shuzheng?Both of them are old foxes who have been in politics for many years, how could they let go of such a good opportunity.They mobilized all the public opinion that the Beiyang Army could mobilize, and turned Tang Jiyao and Tang Jiyu brothers into opium dealers.But how can this alone be enough.

They even took advantage of this opportunity to attack the entire southern warlords and the entire revolutionary party.

Splash dirty water.

It is too easy for politicians to play this trick.The Beiyang government took advantage of this incident to scold the revolutionary party, especially the Kuomintang, severely.The Liang Qichao Progressive Party, which cooperated with Duan Qirui, was also very active in criticizing the Kuomintang.

Because in the current Congress, the Kuomintang has the most members, which seriously affects the influence of the Progressive Party in Congress and Duan Qirui's authority in the government.These members of Congress from the Kuomintang teamed up with Li Yuanhong to tie Duan Qirui's hands and feet.Duan Qirui and Liang Qichao didn't like such things, so they cooperated with several parties and used this opportunity to severely criticize the Kuomintang.It is almost said that the Kuomintang is the backstage of opium.

The revolutionary party headed by the Kuomintang is not shouting all day long that you are a group that saves the country and the people, and showing your righteousness and justice all day long.So what do you think about this time?

This is what Youmin can't stand the most.

You Min was born in the Tongmenghui, later the Kuomintang, and was born in an out-and-out revolutionary party.Therefore, You Min hopes to cut through the mess quickly and drive Tang Jiyao brothers out of Yunnan, so as to end the endless crusade against the Kuomintang by public opinion.

"Will it cause a full-scale conflict with the Yunnan Army?"

You Min, the person who had the most trouble with Duan Xun in the army, supported Duan Xun's sending troops to expel Tang Jiyao, so basically there would be no problems on the army side.At this time Zhang Lan asked Duan Xun cautiously.

Zhang Lan and the others were all against opium, but they were even more against Duan Xun and the Yunnan army going to war on a large scale.Speaking of which, Duan Xun has been in charge of Sichuan for less than a year, but since the Revolution of [-], Sichuan is now more stable than ever, and all work is carried out in an orderly manner.It is impossible for Zhang Lan to agree to start a war with the Yunnan Army at this time.

"Biao Lao (Zhang Lan), our purpose is to ban smoking and expel the rule of Tang Jiyao brothers in Yunnan. The Yunnan Army is a unit with a glorious history, and many of them are against opium. We will not fight with the Yunnan Army. There was a massive conflict."

Yang Wei explained to Zhang Lan.

Now Duan Xun does not have enough strength to clash with the Yunnan army on a large scale, and then occupy Yunnan.Of course, a Yunnan is not a problem, but once there is a large-scale war with the Yunnan army, then the Gui army next to it must consider it, Lu Rongting in Guangxi must also consider it, and the public opinion of the whole country must also be considered.

Yang Wei also told Zhang Lan in another way that not all members of the Dian army were Tang Jiyao's direct descendants.

"Is there really no major conflict?"

"Biao Lao, you can rest assured about this."

Seeing Duan Xun's statement, Zhang Lan didn't speak.Because at this time Duan Xun really grasped the righteousness, Duan Xun was in the name of smoking ban, and he was also authorized by the Beijing government, which can be said to be justified.

This is the effect of Duan Xun's call for a smoking ban for the past six months. Now I am standing on the moral high ground.

Zhang Lan did not object, and soon everyone overwhelmingly supported Duan Xun to send troops to expel Tang Jiyao, and then banned smoking in Yunnan.Duan Xun saw that everyone supported his sending troops, so he immediately said: "Since everyone agrees, then I will form a troop into Yunnan. The troop into Yunnan consists of the Fourth Mixed Brigade, the Independent Brigade of the Southwest Frontier Defense Army, and the First Brigade of the Armed Police Force. Composed of three troops."

"Fang Dingying."

"arrive."

"Appoint Fang Dingying as the commander-in-chief of the troops entering Yunnan."

"Yes."

"Song Tiancai, Guo Songling."

"arrive."

"The two of you immediately reorganized the troops and prepared to go south. Together with Fang Dingying, we set up the headquarters of the troops entering Yunnan. Song Tiancai served as the deputy commander of the troops entering Yunnan, and Guo Songling served as the chief of staff. We worked with the Secretary-General of the Governor's Mansion and the Staff Department of the Governor's Mansion to jointly plan the entry into Yunnan. Report the battle plan to me."

"Yes."

"Li Weiru."

"arrive."

"The Sixth Division of the Southwest Frontier Defense Army, as the reserve team of our troops entering Yunnan this time, has entered southern Sichuan and is ready to go out to support at any time."

"Yes."

"What should I do after entering Yunnan?"

beat.

Now that the fight has been decided and the troops have already started to mobilize, there is no need to hesitate.But compared to fighting, Duan Xun is more concerned about how to deal with the following things.This time, I just wanted to expel Tang Jiyao, but after expelling Tang Jiyao, the main force of the Yunnan Army was still there.

The Yunnan army is elite and ranks first in the country.This sentence is not just blown out, the Dian army is still a strong force at present.

I can't really fight the main force of the Yunnan Army.
