Back to the Republic of China as a commander

When Mei Xin returned to Changsha with her troops, Lin Xiumei's troops from the Hengyang area also marched into Changsha. Together with the first division trained by Tan Yankai, Wei Tuo and Cheng Qian, and the second division reorganized by the Hubei and Hunan Army, Changsha came from The dominance of his Mei Xin's family has turned into a situation where five divisions coexist.

As a result, Mei Xin's life became more difficult. The first thing to bear was the delay in the payment of military salaries, which greatly reduced the morale of the troops. In order to maintain the army, Mei Xin had to separate the four regiments under her command to deploy defenses within the east of the city. Raising military pay, in this way, the discipline of the army has become a joke, and the people in the defense area are very dissatisfied with this.

The second is the severe political isolation. As a result of the coexistence of the five divisions, Tan Yankai is no longer at his mercy.This is still a trivial matter. After all, I still have an army in my hands, and Granny Tan dare not do anything to her.But the hostility of the other three divisions towards her was troublesome, and that was what really gave Mei Xin a headache.Fortunately, Gan Xindian said that this person is a grassroots type, and Wang Longzhong is Chen Zuoxin's old subordinate, that's all, after all, most of the strength in the hands of the commander of the Fourth Division was bought by Tan Yankai, so there is nothing to toss about.But Lin Xiumei was enough to scare him. When Hunan was liberated, Lin Xiumei was in Jiao, and Chen worked in the staff department.When Mei Xin mutinied, Lin Xiumei fled back to her hometown in Anfu County (now Linli) overnight, and then relied on the power of her family to gather Jiao and some old troops in the Hengyang area and pull up a team.For the sake of stabilizing the overall situation, Tan Yankai transferred the division to Changsha through Cheng Qian, and appointed Lin Xiumei as the commander of the Second Division of the Hunan Army.

Mei Xin now regrets her behavior at the beginning. If she didn't kill Jiao, the two of them, she just didn't want to be promoted. After killing someone, she will be in a very embarrassing and dangerous situation. If she is not careful, she may die without a place to die .One word, difficult!

On the night of March 3, Tiantai Teahouse in the east area of ​​Changsha.Gong Peng hosted a banquet here for twelve officers from the Fifth Division of the Hunan Army. Everyone drank and drank, ate and drank, and talked about women.In short, it was very pleasant, and soon these officers became brothers with He Jian, Gong Peng, Ma Xicheng and others, wine and meat brothers.

After drinking for three rounds, the officers, as usual, began to brag about the feats they had done to show their bravery.He Jian, who was pretending to be Gong Peng's friend, Ma Xicheng listened while eating, and after roughly confirming that it was correct, Ma Xicheng got up and left the table as an excuse to go to the toilet.

As soon as he got out of the private room, Ma Xicheng took out the cigarette issued by the officer, lit one, and took a puff. Thinking of how heroes Jiao and Chen were, they were killed by these bastards who were inferior to pigs and dogs. What kind of reason is this?Ma Xicheng couldn't help being a little angry, and ended up choking himself. He coughed a few times, and then nodded to Zhao Dongsheng on the first floor.

Zhao Dongsheng immediately took the man upstairs with a sniper, kicked the door and rushed into the private room. . .

On the first day of April in the first year of the Republic of China, Western April Fool's Day, the headquarters of the Fifth Division of the Hunan Army.

"Teacher, something is wrong!" Mei Xin's chief of staff came to see Mei Xin early the next morning.

Mei Xin was a little sleepy: "What's wrong?"

The chief of staff said, "I went down to check this morning and found twelve officers missing."

Mei Xin said, "I guess I went somewhere to drink flower wine, it's not a big deal."

The chief of staff said, "Coincidentally, these twelve are the ones who got rid of Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin at the beginning!"

Mei Xin immediately became vigilant when he heard this. His life experience told him that all coincidences are unlucky, and there must be something wrong with them.

At this time, the adjutant ran in: "It's not good, sir, something is not right."

"Why are you panicking so early in the morning?" Mei Xin was furious.

The adjutant hurriedly shut his mouth, endured it and said: "The officers of our division were dragged to the North Gate Tiefo Temple and shot."

On the morning of April 4, through torture, Wang Zhenyu obtained the confession he wanted.Afterwards, Wang Zhenyu ordered the twelve captured criminals to be escorted to Tiefo Temple in Beimen for execution by shooting. The place of execution was right in front of the tailor shop where Chen Zuoxin was killed.

Immediately, the whole of Changsha was shocked. The poor tailor shop really couldn't continue to do business. Everyone said that the murderous atmosphere here is too heavy, and the ghosts linger.

Chapter 065 The Tiger Roars in Changsha ([-])

The closure of the tailor shop owner is a minor auspicious event, but the shock in Changsha is the major event.

After Tan Yankai got the news, he didn't even eat breakfast, so he immediately asked Zhao Hengti to transfer the No.16 Brigade to the outside of the Governor's Mansion for defense.Then according to the rules, a liaison officer was sent to ask the fourth division commander Wang Longzhong what was going on, and at the same time he urgently summoned Cheng Qian to ask for advice.

The Governor's Mansion didn't know how to deal with it for a while, but Mei Xin was very angry.

Beating people doesn't slap people in the face, not to mention that people like Wang Zhenyu were directly dragged to Tiefo Temple to be executed in public, and under the guise of avenging Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin.Jiao Dafeng, who killed Chen Zuoxin?Wasn't he Mei Xin? This is publicly tearing up his face and asking for his own head. He is quite courageous for a little brigade commander.

She has soldiers under her command, so she doesn't worry about her own life, but if Mei Xin doesn't get back to this place to stand up for these twelve officers, then there will be no way to bring soldiers in the future.Mei Xin still doesn't dare to go directly to the Fourth Division to trouble her. That belongs to king to king. There is no other way to meet each other except to start a fight, which is exactly what Mei Xin doesn't want to choose. After all, such a thing as [-]v[-] is too rich. Challenging too.Granny Tan had to be dragged into the water. After making up his mind, he immediately ordered his troops to assemble and went directly to Tan Yankai to make trouble.Mei Xin's careful thinking was completely within Wang Zhenyu's expectations, and he was busy making the final mobilization of the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Brigade.

The air in Changsha suddenly became tense, and the merchants closed their doors one after another. Now all fools know that if the big bosses fail to agree, the coexistence of the five divisions is likely to turn into a melee between the five divisions.

"Brother Wang, you're not real. You're looking for revenge on Mei Xin, why didn't you call me?" Lin Xiumei yelled at Wang Longzhong as soon as she entered the door, only to find that Gan Xindian was already seated.

Wang Longzhong shook his head with a wry smile: "Brother Lin misunderstood, I didn't know much about this matter before my brother. I arrested people and asked for a confession, so my nephew told me."

Lin Xiumei was taken aback for a moment, seeing that Wang Longzhong didn't look like a fake: "What's your nephew's plan? This thing is too ruthless, how will Brother Wang plan to end?"

Wang Longzhong handed over the gift to Lin Xiumei: "What's the deal, Dudu Jiao, Dudu Chen's revenge, don't you want to avenge, brother Lin?"

When Lin Xiumei heard this, her expression changed drastically, and her fists were clenched together. . .

On the Dudu Mansion side, as soon as Cheng Qian came out from Tan Yankai's place, the first thing Cheng Qian went to look for was Lin Xiumei.As a result, I went to the Division Headquarters of the Second Division to ask, but I heard that Lin Xiumei had gone to Wang Longzhong of the Fourth Division.Cheng Qian's heart suddenly turned cold, no, in terms of personal friendship, if Lin Xiumei really wanted to plan something with Wang Longzhong, she wouldn't do it alone without herself!Could it be that he is also being planned?

In any case, he did not believe that Lin Xiumei and others would plot against him.But when he saw the people from the Fifth Division rushing into the Xiaowu Gate, Cheng Qian immediately understood that it was better to think about the worst when encountering this situation.The staff department definitely couldn't go back. Cheng Qian immediately got out of the sedan chair, took the adjutant and changed to a military horse and ran to the first division station. There was at least one brigade that he could trust and rely on. Don't worry about anything else, just live first Come down and see.

After the Tiefo Temple revenge incident, Tan Yankai coaxed and persuaded the fifth division to return to the station.But the tension between the Fourth Division and the Fifth Division has grown. Once the officers and soldiers of the two sides meet, they will fight.The tense atmosphere in Changsha did not ease at all, but intensified.

On the morning of April 4, at Xiaowumen, the conflict finally reached its peak.A dozen soldiers from the 2th Brigade of the [-]th Division and more than [-] people from the [-]th Division "accidentally" met. This was actually planned by He Jian. People from the Fourth Division were bullying the brothers from the Fifth Division, and as a result, a group of passing soldiers from the Fifth Division were led into the restaurant.As a result, when the two sides met, they naturally began to fight without saying a word. One of the soldiers of the Fifth Division was too small to take advantage of the fight. The soldier was hacked to death. Seeing this name, he immediately became a fairy.

The death incident caused by the gang fight immediately caused the Dudu Mansion to send military police to block the streets, and at the same time strictly ordered the officers and soldiers of the two divisions not to leave the garrison for half a step without the order of the Military Office. this order.

On the night of April 4, just when everyone thought the situation was calming down, Wang Zhenyu decisively issued an order to annihilate the Fifth Division of the Hunan Armed Army.Wang Zhenyu gave a mobilization speech to the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Brigade: "During the Revolution of 2, we followed Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin, the two governors, to recover Hunan and support Hubei Province. The prestige of our Ninth Brigade Tigers was established in the battle against the Tartars. Yes, but when our generation was fighting the enemy with blood in front, someone accepted the bribe of the Qing court, willing to be a hawk dog for the Tartars, brazenly staged a mutiny on the couch, and killed the two governors Jiao and Chen. It made us even more sad Yes, this kind of person who betrayed his ancestors and robes was not punished, and still steals high positions in our Hunan Army, what is the reason?"

Most of the officers were greeted in advance, but the soldiers were at a loss as if they were listening to a story.

"Everyone knows that at the Iron Buddha Temple the day before yesterday, the brigade commander executed all twelve murderers who killed Dudu Chen. But now I want to tell you brothers that those twelve beasts are just accomplices, not masterminds."

There was an uproar in the school grounds, and the soldiers began to whisper.

"Who is this mastermind? It is none other than Mei Xin, the division commander of the Fifth Division. This man is ambitious and controls the military government with a large army in his hands. He even clamored openly in front of the military government the day before yesterday to destroy my Fourth Division. In the past two days, when his minions saw the officers and soldiers of my Fourth Division in Changsha City, they were even more openly provocative. The officers and soldiers of my Fourth Division were injured countless times, and even a few hours ago, a brother died tragically."

"Everyone tell me, what should we do?" Wang Zhenyu shouted hoarsely.

The soldiers arranged in advance by Yang Wangui and others immediately took the lead and shouted: "Revenge, revenge."

As soon as someone took the lead, the soldiers' anger was immediately ignited, and the shouts of revenge immediately resounded through the sky.Although most of the soldiers didn't even know who Mei Xin was.But it doesn’t matter, it’s right to know that this person is not a good person, it’s right to know that this person owes us a blood debt, it’s right to know that the brigade commander is going to take everyone to eliminate this bad person.

Chief of Staff Yang Wangui immediately took the lead and shouted: "Defend the revolution and eliminate the rebellion." . .

The three regiments of the Ninth Brigade immediately mobilized, plus a regiment of Lu Diping who volunteered to participate in the operation, a total of four regiments of troops.Everyone drove straight to the four garrisons of the Fifth Division in the east of the city. Among them, Wang Zhenyu personally led the teaching team directly under the brigade headquarters to follow Xu Yuanquan's department. The target was directly at the division headquarters of the Fifth Division, where Mei Xin was.

The mobilization of the Fourth Division could not be concealed from all parties in Changsha, but the surveillance personnel arranged by Mei Xin were eliminated by He Jian, and Mei Xin, who lost her eyesight, did not give the order to gather all the ministries under her command.So when Song Xianfu's second regiment fired the first shot, the only thing Mei Xin could do was to order the various departments near the division headquarters to step up their guard.

Groups of soldiers ran across the street, and the sound of gunfire suddenly became denser, mixed with the sound of exploding grenades from time to time.

Tan Yankai had already got up from the bed, seeing Zhao Hengti rushing over made him feel much more relieved, but he kept asking what happened.At this time, the adjutant reported that Xiao Wumen was taken over by Lin Xiumei, the second division.And the people who were sent to contact the officers of the [-]th Division came back soon and reported that Wang Longzhong, the commander of the [-]th Division, held a meeting, and the officers were called to the division headquarters after dinner. I didn't see it, when Tan Yankai heard the news, he fell down on the grand master's chair as if struck by lightning and said nothing, and Zhao Hengti who was standing by the side didn't know how to comfort him. . .

The people Tan Yankai sent out one after another also brought back bad news. The Fourth Division was attacking the Fifth Division on the grounds that the Fifth Division was armed with the Communist Party.And the Third Division Gan Xin Dian Department has put martial law on all the streets outside the Dudu's Mansion. The reason is more classic, saying that it is to protect your safety, Dudu.Tan Yankai was so angry that he was smoking, rebellious, rebellious, these soldiers and ruffians, when this matter is understood, I will have to dismiss you sooner or later.But right now, Tan Yankai can only pray that the soaring fire that has already been ignited will not burn himself.

At this time, Zhao Hengti's heart was full of turmoil. He didn't expect that the result of his leak to Wang Zhenyu would cause such a huge shock.This completely exceeded his expectations. According to the current intelligence, the five divisions in Changsha are equivalent to three divisions acting collectively.Don't talk about cleaning up Mei Xin, even overthrowing Dudu Tan is not a problem.No, I can't wait for the situation to develop out of control.

Zhao Hengti knew that his [-]th brigade was more than enough to defend the governor's mansion, and it was wishful thinking to quell the military chaos, so he immediately went to see Tan Yankai, "Duditor Tan, the situation is unknown, Zhao must tell the truth." Zhao Hengti's loud voice startled Tan Yankai, At this time when everything is in danger, what Tan Yankai is most afraid of is that his last straw, Zhao Hengti, will also run out and say, Dudu Tan, in fact, I am with them. If you want to move your nest, it will really be a big deal.

Tan Yankai wiped off his sweat: "It's all like this, Brigadier Zhao said it's okay."

Zhao Hengti didn't notice Tan Yankai's nervousness, but directly said: "Wang Zhenyu, the brigade commander of the [-]th Brigade of the [-]th Division, and I both worked in the garrison headquarters when we were in Nanjing, and we have some personal friendships. Looking at the current situation, Mei Xin is definitely I can't bear it anymore, I plan to go to see Wang Zhenyu immediately to see where their bottom line is, no matter what, Zhao will do his best to protect you, the governor."

Tan Yankai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and was very moved.In his heart, he felt that this Zhao Hengti was good, and he didn't forget to do his best at this time, much better than Cheng Qian, who was hiding in the first division's resident.If he can survive this catastrophe, he must be appointed as the commander of the first division.

Tan Yankai also wanted to know the situation outside, but the words came to his lips: "Heng Vi, right now, those who are fighting outside are fighting, and those who are blocking the road are blocking the road. How can you see your friend?"

Zhao Hengti was very grateful, but he made up his mind: "Zhao has the status today due to the kindness of the governor. The governor should not worry about Zhao's safety. Zhao will go through this if he dies today."

Tan Yankai held Zhao Hengti's hand excitedly, tears welled up: "The strong wind knows the strong grass, the toughness meets the loyal ministers, Hengti's loyalty today, Tan has written it down."

Afterwards, Zhao Hengti rode out of the Dudu's Mansion with ten guards. . .
