The telegram jointly concocted by Zhang Huizan and Cheng Ziyin was circulated in Zhao Jingxing's Governor's Palace in Xi'an, and arrived at the telegraph room of the Yan-Jin Allied Forces Headquarters in Zhengding, Zhili late on November 21, 1911.
These days, Wu Luzhen, Zhang Shaozeng, and Lan Tianwei have been sending telegrams constantly to discuss plans to attack the capital at the same time. As Wu Luzhen's assistant, He Sui stayed in the telegraph room, waiting for the latest news from the north so that he could submit it to his superiors as quickly as possible. However, the telegrams going back and forth made He Sui feel annoyed. In his opinion, what is there to discuss? Isn¡¯t it just a very simple question: Can we cooperate?
If we can cooperate, then fine, we can formulate a battle plan and deploy our vehicles, horses and artillery to capture Beijing as soon as possible.
If you can¡¯t, then let¡¯s break up and go back to each other¡¯s homes to find their respective mothers.
How can there be so many twists and turns?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Now there are interceptions in front and pursuers behind. The two groups of troops are still hundreds of miles away from the city of Beijing, but they don't think about how to make progress. Instead, they are here to deceive each other and figure out how to divide the spoils after taking the city of Beijing. How ridiculous!
Just when He Sui was slandering, the operator hurriedly sent a telegram: "Report to Staff He, there is an urgent message from the Shaanxi military government!"
He Sui suddenly woke up, and when he heard this, his heart moved: "Urgent telegram from Shaanxi? Let me take a look!" After reading the telegram, his expression changed drastically, he got up hurriedly, and went straight to Wu Luzhen's residence in Yan's backyard.
It was already past eleven o'clock at night, and the winter night in the north was freezing, but the lights in Wu Luzhen's room were still bright. He Sui ignored the etiquette and pushed the door open. He saw that staff officer Zhang Shiying and adjutant Zhou Weizhen were also there. Seeing He Sui come in, Wu Luzhen asked with a smile: "Xu Fu, what's the latest news?"
He Sui quickly handed over the telegram in his hand: "Commander, this is an urgent telegram from Governor Zhao of Shaanxi Province!"
Zhang Shiying's eyes lit up: "Why, Zhao Xingzhi can't hold himself back and is ready to bring troops to intervene? Well, we are Han Xing now. The more troops the better!"
There were all Wu Luzhen¡¯s cronies in the room, and He Sui didn¡¯t hide it: ¡°That¡¯s not the case! Governor Zhao said in the telegram that Shaanxi Province is now surrounded by enemies on both sides and has a serious shortage of troops. He wants to mobilize Cheng Ziyin¡¯s troops to return reinforcements.¡±
"What?" Zhang Shiying and Zhou Weizhen immediately stood up together.
Wu Luzhen looked deeply after reading the telegram: "Xu Fu is right. Zhao Xingzhi ordered Cheng Ziyin in the telegram to set off before the 25th, from Pingxing Guanxi, and arrive at the Shaanxi Yanzhou line as soon as possible to defend against the Gansu Army's attack from the east."
Zhou Weizhen was very angry: "What does Zhao Jingxing mean? We now have the Imperial Guard and the Yi Army in the north, with a number of no less than 30,000; and Yuan Shikai's Beiyang elite in the south, with a number of no less than 20,000. Aren't we vulnerable to enemies on both sides? We originally have manpower. , have no advantage in combat power, and he still wants to transfer Cheng Ziyin¡¯s troops, isn¡¯t this taking a step back and adding insult to injury?¡±
He turned his face and said to Wu Luzhen: "Commander, why don't we suppress the telegram first, quickly reach an agreement with Zhang Tongzhi and Lan Xietong, and send Cheng Ziyin's troops north tomorrow? Wait until they meet Jiang Guiti's Yijun He got angry and started a ping-pong-pong fight. No matter what the telegrams from Governor Zhao and Governor Li were, the troops would not be able to withdraw even if they wanted to!"
Wu Luzhen, Zhang Shiying, and He Sui all shook their heads with a wry smile.
"Why, this strategy doesn't work?" Zhou Weizhen asked hurriedly.
As the chief of staff of the Yan-Jin coalition, Zhang Shiying took the initiative to explain: "What Brother Qianchen said was originally a clever plan, but he ignored a crucial point, that is, Cheng Ziyin also has a telegraph room. Needless to say, this letter The telegram must have been sent to Cheng Ziyin first and then to us. Considering Cheng Ziyin's foolish loyalty to Sun Yuanqi, he has already deserved us by not gathering up a team and leaving without saying goodbye. Do you still expect him to do this? Follow our orders and go north? The reason why Governor Zhao sent the telegram is not to solicit our opinions. He just wants to tell us his arrangements and let us adjust our deployment as soon as possible to avoid being caught off guard."
Wu Luzhen let out a long sigh at this time: "A great situation has come to nothing!"
He Sui hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Commander, don't be discouraged! We still have nearly 10,000 troops in the coalition headquarters, plus the troops of the 20th Town and the 2nd Mixed Association, it is more than enough to deal with the old soldiers of the Imperial Guard and the Yi Army. As long as we If we capture the capital and destroy the Manchu imperial family, the situation will be turned upside down, so why should we fear it!"
Zhou Weizhen also said: "That's right! In any case, let's kill the Manchu and Qing dog Tatars first!"
Wu Luzhen said with a helpless smile: "If we don't move now, this situation can last for a while; I'm afraid if we move, Yuan Weiting in the south will also move!"
This is also the problem that Zhang Shiying, He Sui and other former Sixth Town revolutionaries are most worried about.Next, I thought: If Ma Buzhou is still awake, call him out and give him a few instructions; if the lights have been turned off, just talk to him tomorrow!
He Sui took a random look and found that there was a faint light in the room, reflecting the shadows of people on the window paper. He couldn't help but feel happy and shouted: "Ma Huitian, open the door quickly!"
Shouting was heard in the room, but there was a rush. The candle was immediately blown out, and the sound of pulling the bolt of a gun could still be vaguely heard. After a while, someone in the room asked, "Who is it?"
He Sui frowned: "I am He Sui, is Ma Huitian here?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is mine. The biggest motivation.) (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
