Beiyang reactionaries

"Master."

"Send a telegram to Liang Caishen in Hong Kong, saying that I, Zhang Yuting, invited him to go north. Since the fool Cao wants Zhou Ziqi to be the prime minister of the cabinet, then I will support Liang Caishen."

"Marshal, time is running out. Looking at the current situation, Prime Minister Jin can't survive for a few days. As long as Prime Minister Jin's cabinet collapses, Zhou Ziqi will be able to take over the position of prime minister immediately."

Yang Yuting told Zhang Zuolin in a low voice.

late.

Cao Kun took a step ahead.It is estimated that Cao Kun's current offensive will take ten days and a half months to solve Jin Yunpeng's cabinet.As long as Jin Yunpeng's cabinet falls, Cao Kun can immediately order Xu Shichang to appoint Zhou Ziqi as the prime minister of the cabinet.

As for Liang Shiyi, if he wanted to go north and return to Beijing, he probably wouldn't be able to do it in less than a month.

After all, it was impossible for Liang Shiyi to go north just because of a telegram. He still needed to get in touch with people from the old transportation department.Moreover, Liang Shiyi had to consider Zhou Ziqi's position.

"It's too late, how could it be too late. Even if Zhou Ziqi becomes the prime minister, he will only be the interim prime minister. After Zhou Ziqi becomes the prime minister, let our people also ask Zhou Ziqi for money. I want to see how he Zhou Ziqi will do at the end of the year." Make money. As long as Zhou Ziqi can’t solve the money problem within a few months, he will surely fall. At that time, no one can stop Liang Caishen from becoming the prime minister of the cabinet. Fool Cao thinks he is very smart, but he doesn’t know that Liang When the God of Wealth is so popular, but he did not choose Liang God of Wealth, he must offend him. We will wait and see in the future."

"Yes."

"Go."

Looking at Yang Yuting's back, Zhang Zuolin sneered.

Not only Cao Kun, but also Yang Yuting who just walked out, you all think that I am a bandit, and you all regard me as a big boss and look down on me.I just want you to see how I played with you.

Liang God of Wealth, Liang God of Wealth.

Good luck to you boy.

I need you to go north now, and this time I will push you to be the prime minister no matter what.Cao Kun, if you dare to play dirty with me, let's see who is better than who.

258 reorganization

Cao Kun wants to pull down Jin Yunpeng's cabinet, so the current Beijing is noisy.

In fact, at this time, public opinion is a little numb.The cabinet in Beijing changed too frequently. At the beginning of the year, Qian Nengxun's cabinet fell, and Gong Xinzhan's cabinet appeared.In the Zhiwan War, the Anhui faction failed, Cao Kun came to power, and Gong Xinzhan's cabinet also fell.The one who went up was Jin Yunpeng, the former Anhui general and the chief of the Ministry of Army.But it's only been a long time, and Jin Yunpeng's cabinet has also encountered huge troubles in three months.

It's really a changing king's banner at the top of the city.

It's so fast that it's dizzying.

In order to deal with this situation, Jin Yunpeng held a meeting of the Ministry of War in Beijing on October 1919, 10.Jin Yunpeng wanted to explain to these army generals, but these army generals were determined to take Jin Yunpeng down.

Therefore, at the meeting of the Ministry of War, these people attacked collectively.

Ask Jin Yunpeng to give money.

Get out if you don't pay.

Cao Kun's younger brother Cao Rui once again became a pioneer, making Jin Yunpeng extremely ironic.Although many generals of the Beiyang Army are from military academies, there are Beiyang Army's own military academies, and there are also graduates of the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy.But no matter what, they are all "Qiu Ba".

Fumbled in the barracks.

Opening your mouth to curse is very common.I scolded Jin Yunpeng enough.

Jin Yunpeng also has a temper.Jin Yunpeng's qualifications in the Beiyang Army are comparable to Cao Kun, and he is definitely not an ordinary Beiyang Army general.The subordinates of Cao Kun who came to the meeting were all juniors in terms of seniority.Being treated like this by these people made Jin Yunpeng furious.

In the evening, a letter of resignation was handed over to President Xu Shichang.

I'm not doing it anymore.

While Beijing was full of hustle and bustle, Duan Xun had been carrying out his work step by step in Wuchang.As long as one's own strength is strong enough, no matter whether it is Cao Kun, Zhang Zuolin, or the world powers, none of them can stop Duan Xun from walking towards Beijing.

Therefore, most of Duan Xun's energy is still on the cultivation of internal strength.

"Tell me carefully."

reorganization.

After a month and a half, Xiong Kewu's military affairs department finally came up with a reorganization report.Duan Xun has already read it, and generally agrees.But Duan Xun can't make the decision alone.

So Duan Xun summoned the generals of the Border Defense Supervision Office to discuss this plan together.

Chief of the General Staff Xu Yongchang, Minister of Equipment Department Han Linchun, Minister of Logistics Department Han Jianduo, Minister of Mobilization Department Gu Pinzhen, Secretary-General of the Military Department Yang Jie, Minister of Operations and Training Zhang Zizhen, Chief Inspector of the Military Law Department Jing Wumu and others.

As well as several senior generals of the first-line troops, such as Li Jishen, who previously served as the commander of the First Army, Wan Xuancai, the deputy commander of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River garrison and concurrently the commander of the Fourth Division, and Liu Xiang, the commander of the Second Army, and so on.

There are not many people, but they are all heavyweight personnel of Duan Xun's army.

Although troop reorganization is the job of the Ministry of Military Affairs, every troop reorganization is not a small matter and involves many interests.In particular, the sources of Duan Xun's troops are complicated. There are troops brought by Duan Xun from western Henan, and there are many other troops such as Sichuan Army, Yunnan Army, Qian Army, and Shaanxi Army.Other reorganizations such as the Hunan Army, the Hubei Army, and the Henan Army are all ineffective.

With so many troops mixed, reorganization also needs to consider all aspects.

Therefore, these people are called together, and everyone agrees, and the reorganization work will go much smoother.

"General, let me introduce our troops currently stationed in various provinces. The Sichuan-Tibet Frontier Army stationed in Qamdo is a mixed brigade (Brigade Commander Lu Chao). In Sichuan we have a temporary second division (Division Commander Wang Bailing) stationed In Chongqing, the police forces of two mixed brigades are stationed in Chengdu. In Dali, Yunnan, there is the third mixed brigade of the frontier defense army (Brigade Commander Huang Yucheng), and the Fifth Army (commander Yu Enyang) is stationed around Kunming, with the Sixth Division (division commander Song Tiancai) and No.12 Division (division commander Yu Enyang). Guizhou stationed a police force with a mixed brigade and the First Division of the First Army (division commander Li Weiru). Among them, Tao Zhiyue's brigade has been reorganized as a bandit suppression unit."

In the Zhiwan War, Duan Xun's troops attacked aggressively, and there were few troops left in Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou.

At present, the total number of troops remaining in Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou is only 7 to 20.It is completely incomparable with the nearly [-] troops stationed at its peak.However, the three provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou have been controlled by Duan Xun for a long time, and the government affairs system here is still very complete.

Especially the construction of the police system is very good.

That's why Duan Xun rest assured to keep such a small number of troops.But this situation can't be too long, after all, there can't be only such a small number of troops in such a big place.

"Shaanxi is currently stationed in the Second Army of the Frontier Defense Army (Commander Liu Xiang), under its jurisdiction the Third Division (Division Commander Li Bingzhi) and the Seventh Division (Division Commander Yuan Zuming), as well as the Second Mixed Brigade of the Border Defense Army (Brigade Commander Fan Zhongxiu). The Third Mixed Brigade of the Shaanxi Army (Brigade Commander Gao Jun). Together with the temporary Sixth Division (Division Commander Hu Ruoyu) entered Shaanxi to suppress bandits. And the Second Division of the Frontier Defense Army (Division Commander Shang Zhen) and No.13 Mixed Brigade have been mobilized from Henan (Liu Huchen, commander of the brigade) and the temporary fifth division (commander Lu Tao) entered Shaanxi."

"With the mobilization of several troops into Shaanxi, Henan currently only has the No.18 Mixed Brigade (Brigade Commander Liu Zanting), the Fourth Division of the Shaanxi Army (Division Commander Liu Tianzuo), and the garrison division that just entered Henan from Xiangyang (Division Commander Hu Jingyi). Except for these field battles In addition to the troops, Henan also has the Eighth Division of Bandit Suppression (formerly the Second Mixed Brigade and the Third Mixed Brigade of the Henan Army), the Ninth Division of Bandit Suppression (formerly the Police Brigade of the Henan Army), and the Tenth Division of Bandit Suppression (formerly the [-]st Mixed Brigade of the Shaanxi Army). Third Division)."

"Hubei currently has the Fourth Army of the Frontier Defense Army (commander Guo Songling), under the jurisdiction of the Tenth Division (division commander Jin Handing) and the No.11 Division (division commander Pan Wenhua). There is also the Fourth Frontier Defense Army Division (division commander Wang Tianzhen), and the Eighth Division of the Border Defense Army. The Division (Commander Xiong Qixun), the First Mixed Brigade of the Frontier Defense Army (Brigade Commander Tian Songyao), the Guard Brigade of the Upper Yangtze River Garrison Command (Brigade Commander Rao Guohua), the Border Defense Supervision Bureau Guard Brigade (Brigade Commander Yang Hucheng). And the Sixth Bandit Suppression Division (Former Sixth Mixed Brigade, Commander Tang Shengzhi), Bandit Suppression Seventh Division (former Second Mixed Brigade of the Hubei Army, Division Commander Kou Yingjie)."

"Hunan currently has the Fifth Division of the Frontier Defense Army (division commander Yu Xuezhong), the temporary seventh division (division commander Liu Mingzhao), the first division of bandit suppression (division commander Yan Deji), the second division of bandit suppression (Lu Zhonglin), and the bandit suppression division. The [-]rd Division (Chen Quzhen), and the Pingliuli Suppression Bandit Mixed Brigade (Brigade Commander He Jian)."

"There is also the Third Army of the Frontier Defense Army in Guangxi (Army Commander Fang Dingying), which has the Ninth Division (Division Commander Ye Quan) and the No.30 Fourth Division (Division Commander Zhang Zizhong). There is also a temporary Third Division (Division Commander Liu Duanshang) ), the temporary fourth division (division commander Wang Tianpei), and the fourth bandit suppression division (division commander Tao Zhiyue) and the fifth bandit suppression division (division commander Fan Shisheng).

"The last unit is the Mongolian Garrison Corps currently stationed in Kulun, temporarily organized into the first division (division commander Ma Xiaojun) and the second division of the Shaanxi Army (division commander Jing Yuexiu)."

"At present, our department has a total of thirteen reorganized divisions, one garrison division, seven temporary divisions, one Shaanxi Army Fourth Division, ten Bandit Suppression Divisions, one Shaanxi Army Third Mixed Brigade, seven Mixed Brigades, three The police force of the mixed brigade, and two guard brigades. The guard battalions directly under the governors of other provinces are not here. There are about 36 troops in total. And because of the war during this period, and the random expansion of the troops, there are many The army is not fully staffed. When the army is fully staffed, there will be about 41 troops."

Everyone was instantly surprised.

Although he knew that Duan Xun had a lot of troops, this was the first time he knew the number of troops in such detail.Because during this period of time, many mixed brigades were expanded into bandit suppression divisions, from four to 5000 people to 7000 people.And among some reorganization divisions, a brigade was transferred to expand as a temporary reorganization division.The number has increased, but the number of troops has not increased, so the current total number of troops is about 36, which is [-] troops short of the full strength.

If the army is full of 41 people, then Duan Xun is definitely the most powerful army in China at present.

The target of public criticism.

No wonder both Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin are so jealous of Duan Xun.
