Beiyang reactionaries

In fact, in Baoding Military Academy back then, even though they were all students who went to school together, they were all completely different.For example, Duan Xun relied on Zhao Litai's connections to go to school, and Zhang Jingyao and the others were recommended to the school by the army. They entered the school to recharge their batteries and get promoted better, so they each have their own connections.At that time, very few people were directly admitted to the school.Although they are all students, many of them can get a good position after graduation.

But Xie Hongxun was different, he really didn't have any connections, he just got in.

Therefore, compared with many other well-connected and qualified students, their status is much worse.After the other students graduated, they all got promoted and made a fortune.But Xie Hongxun's road to joining the army was not so smooth.

Fortunately, although Xie Hongxun was an ordinary student in the military academy, he was neither a well-connected Beiyang military student nor a student who leaned towards the revolutionary party.But he was indeed a fighter himself.After defecting to Lu Yongxiang, Xie Hongxun followed Lu Yongxiang to fight in the north and south, and made great achievements.When he was fighting, once the attack was frustrated, he would personally charge with guns in both hands to help improve the morale of the army.Therefore, Xie Hongxun himself is well-known in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai.Everyone knows that Lu Yongxiang has a brave general who dares to fight.Therefore, in order to suppress Zhang Wensheng, the Anhui governor, Lu Yongxiang sent this fierce general under his command to station in Anqing.

However, Lu Yongxiang was worried that Xie Hongxun alone would not be able to suppress Zhang Wensheng with his Zhejiang Army Fourth Division alone.Worried that Zhang Wensheng, the governor of Anhui, would fight back and seek refuge with Duan Xun.Therefore, Lu Yongxiang dispatched Chen Leshan, who served as the deputy envoy of the Yangtze River patrol, to move to Anqing with the Fourth Division of the Central Army.Let Chen Leshan take full charge of Anhui affairs and stop Duan Xun's troops.

And Chen Leshan is the fastest.

Before his Central Army Fourth Division arrived in Anqing, he brought his guards and arrived in Anqing ahead of schedule.On the day he came to Anqing, that is, on the evening of May 1922, 5, he invited Zhang Wensheng, Governor of Anhui, He Binglin, Governor of Anhui, and Xie Hongxun, Commander of the Fourth Division of the Zhejiang Army, to a meeting.Although it is said that the patrol envoys of the Yangtze River can only manage the military, the "separation of the military and the people" in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shanghai is not so thorough.

Chen Leshan came in person.

It is also impossible for Zhang Wensheng and He Binglin to miss him.

Chen Leshan's meaning is very simple.

That is to ask Anhui Governor He Binglin to publicly refuse the marine police force to enter Anhui.Because this is an order from the police department, and it is also an order from the cabinet.It is not good to object from the perspective of the Yangtze River patrol envoy, or the Anhui governor.It should be the governor of Anhui, which governs the Anhui police system, who opposes it.But He Binglin was somewhat resistant.

It made Chen Leshan very unhappy.

"Governor He, are you from Anhui?"

"Yes."

He Binglin nodded.

He Binglin is 39 years old and is a native of Anhui.He graduated from Beiyang University and has done many jobs.Including serving in the Hanlin Academy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, as well as the Secretary of the Fengtian Governor's Office, the Director of the Southern Section of the Jinpu Railway Bureau, the Director of Lijin in Chu County, Anhui, the Customs Supervisor of Wuhu, Anhui, the Special Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Anhui Province, and the Director of Finance of Anhui Province.After the implementation of "separation of military and civilian rule" this time, he began to serve as the governor of Anhui.

Except for a period of time in other provinces, the rest of the time is in Anhui.

"Governor He, as a native of Anhui, you should not want to see the flames of war raging in Anhui and the loss of life. The only way to stop the war is to prevent the marine police force from entering Anhui. Once the marine police force enters Anhui, then Anhui must fight Get up. I don't think this is what Governor He wants to see."

"General Chen, the reason for the police department to set up a marine police force is very good, and they are all very legitimate reasons. Besides, there are many bandits in the Yangtze River section in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, and we also need a marine police force. I don't know what reason to use How to object."

He Binglin froze at first, but quickly shook his head.

fight?

He Binglin was very unwilling.

After all, He Binglin's family is in Anqing, and his family is in Anhui.If there is a war in Anhui, not to mention the loss of life in Anhui, it will not be a good thing for the He Binglin family.

However, in He Binglin's view, the Beijing government represented by Duan Xun is orthodox, and Lu Yongxiang's patrol envoy on the Yangtze River is also a local warlord.And looking at the development of Duan Xun and Lu Yongxiang over the years, He Binglin believes that Lu Yongxiang is not as good as Duan Xun at all, and the Yangtze River patrol is Lu Yongxiang's limit.Therefore, as the governor of Anhui, whether it is for Anhui or China's future, he should not obey Lu Yongxiang's orders.

Chen Leshan's face became more and more ugly.

Lu Yongxiang, the patrol envoy of the Yangtze River, is not dead and has not lost his power. You, a little governor of Anhui, dare to refuse Lu Yongxiang's order like this.If it weren't for the cabinet's implementation of "separate rule between the military and the people", He Binglin would be just a small person who dared to oppose Lu Yongxiang's order.It is tolerable or unbearable.

"Governor He, do you really want to agree?"

"I have no reason to disagree."

"well."

Chen Leshan nodded repeatedly, but his face was livid.

Suddenly, he took out the pistol from his waist, put it on the table with a "snap", and said with a sneer, "It seems that we can't talk anymore. Governor He, you must betray Jiashuai (Lu Yongxiang), I have gone to Duan Xun. Come here."

As Chen Leshan called for someone, four or five heavily armed soldiers suddenly poured in at the door.

They are all Chen Leshan's guards.

"General Chen, General Chen, don't get angry, don't get angry."

Zhang Wensheng immediately stepped forward.

Zhang Wensheng was very surprised.He originally thought that Lu Yongxiang was facing enemies on all sides, so he would appease these powerful factions.Unexpectedly, Chen Leshan called his guard directly.It seems that once He Binglin disagrees, Zhang Leshan will have his own people tie up He Binglin.

How does this work.

Although his strength was not as good as Lu Yongxiang, under the pressure of Chen Leshan and Xie Hongxun, he kept giving in.But if they were allowed to arrest He Binglin on their own territory, what face would he have as the governor of Anhui in the future.

"Humph."

When Zhang Wensheng interrupted, Chen Leshan didn't say anything.But Chen Leshan has been staring at He Binglin.However, although He Binglin is usually polite, when he saw Chen Leshan threatening with his guards today, he became angry and stared at Chen Leshan as well.There was no intention of backing down.

Chen Leshan became more and more angry.

damn it.

When did these literati lose face so much.Since the Revolution of [-], China has been ruled by warlords.For warlords, those literati are useful, so they will be used.If they are not easy to use, or if they are disobedient, then they will be kicked out without hesitation.Because in the eyes of warlords, this is the role of these literati.

What do warlords value most?

army.

These warlords in the Republic of China all believed in fists.

"Cough cough."

Just when Chen Leshan's anger was about to erupt and the situation became more and more out of control, someone coughed softly.Then he came to the side of Chen Leshan and said: "General Chen, I think that if Governor He refuses, it may intensify the conflict with the cabinet. It is better to delay it. It is better to ask the police department to ask the police department. If the water police force is allowed to enter Anhui, so what is the relationship with the Anhui Police Department? The affiliation and so on. Moreover, some preparations need to be made here to provide the water police with a dock. Anyway, you can keep making excuses, delay for some time, and then discuss how to deal with this matter matter."

Chen Leshan turned his head and saw Xie Hongxun.

I was a little surprised.

Xie Hongxun is Lu Yongxiang's fierce general, but Chen Leshan doesn't have much contact with him.Because Chen Leshan used to be the commander of the Fourth Division of the Central Army, and as a direct general of the Beiyang Army, he still had a high vision.He looked down on Xie Hongxun, a person who graduated from Baoding Military Academy but developed in a motley army like the Zhejiang Army.

Although he is Lu Yongxiang's favorite general, his ranks are different.

In the past, I only knew that he was a fierce general, and I only knew that he was a general who took the lead on the battlefield.I didn't expect my head to be quite bright, this idea is good.

When he came this time, he didn't expect to completely turn against Anhui.After all, the current Lu Yongxiang needs support from all sides, not to turn against these people.

So he glanced at He Binglin, snorted coldly, and then waved his guards to go out.Finally sat down and said to He Binglin: "Governor He, there should be no problem."

He Binglin didn't speak, but sat down.

The toughness just now was just his temper coming up.But he is not without fear, because these warlords carrying guns are not easy to mess with.Maybe in their hands, it is possible to suffer great humiliation.

So He Binglin didn't want to continue to fight hard with Chen Leshan.

"General Chen, things are easy to discuss, easy to discuss."

Seeing the relaxation, Zhang Wen let out a long sigh of relief.As long as there is no internal strife and no major incidents in his own territory, he will be satisfied.
