On July 1, Lu Yongxiang was holding Xin Na's concubine in his arms and watching a play in the opera garden.

Suddenly, the guard rushed over

"The commander is in trouble. A dozen warships suddenly appeared on the sea, led by a 10,000-ton battleship."

Lu Yongxiang was shocked and said hurriedly:"Which country's warship is it?"

The guard said:"It should be from the Guangdong Army. There is a big word"Chen" on the battleship flag. Hearing this, Lu Yongxiang was no longer in the mood to watch a show. He stood up in a hurry and left in a hurry.

Looking at Lu Yongxiang who was so urgent, Everyone in the theater looked puzzled.

What could make the people in power in this magic city so anxious?

The actors on the stage ignored it and just sang their own plays.

Lu Yongxiang got on the carriage and rushed there immediately Port.

With the telescope, I saw the dark battleships, and I felt a little panicked.

A bad premonition came to my heart.

Isn't Shen Hao here to beat him?

Thinking of this, the more I thought about Lu Yongxiang, the more scared I became.

But I Shen Hao has never offended Shen Hao, why would he attack himself?

Although he couldn't figure it out, Lu Yongxiang still hurriedly ordered:"Come here, defend me, remember, if the other side doesn't fire, you are determined not to fire, you know?""

""Yes, Commander."

After Lu Yongxiang's order was issued, the originally lazy army immediately prepared for battle.

But looking at the big words"Chen" on the battleship, everyone was unsure of the strength of the Guangdong army. , has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They can bully some small characters, but they really don’t have the confidence to face the powerful Shen Hao.

At the same time, Li Yunlong led 30,000 troops from Fujian to attack Zhejiang.

Zhou Weiguo sent troops from Shandong and led Thirty thousand soldiers, attack Jiangsu. Jiangsu,

Zhejiang and Shanghai attacked at the same time.

Feng Guozhang of Jiangsu was also frightened. Although he had been on guard against Shen Hao, more than a month passed, and Shen Hao did not move, thinking that everything was fine.

Unexpectedly, Shen Hao suddenly attacked.

Among the three places in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, Feng Guozhang was the most powerful.

But facing the powerful Guangdong army, he did not dare to neglect. He immediately contacted Zhang Xun, the Yangtze River patrol envoy stationed in Xuzhou.

He hoped that the two parties would join forces to resist Shen Hao At the same time, Feng Guozhang also hurriedly sent a telegram to Duan Qirui and Li Yuanhong, hoping that they would come forward to ask Shen Hao to retreat, saying that everything could be discussed.

However, Zhang Xun felt something in his heart, and he agreed on the surface, but secretly he was attracted to them. Capital.

He has always wanted to restore, but now that Feng Guozhang is being dragged down, he thinks this is an opportunity.

Although Zhang Xun is arrogant, he also knows that there is no chance of winning against Shen Hao's Cantonese army.

Besides, back then, Feng Guozhang arranged for him. Originally, the governor of Jiangsu had agreed to give it to Zhang Xun.

Unexpectedly, Feng Guozhang picked the peach.

Since it is not his own, why should he help you guard it?

Isn't this a shame?

The more he thought about it, the more Zhang Xun became. He was gloating about his misfortune. Looking at Feng Guozhang’s distress telegram, he spat and said with a smile:"You deserve it~!"

Zhang Xun is not an idiot. He knows that even if he stays to resist Shen Hao, the consequences will be death.

It is better to give it a try and turn the bicycle into a motorcycle.

The more he thinks about it, the more it makes sense.

In addition, Duan Qirui and Li Yuanhong are also having conflicts. Li Yuanhong also intended to ask him to go to Beijing for mediation, which happened to be an opportunity.

Zhang Xun was particularly happy to receive Li Yuanhong's invitation, because he was thinking about restoration. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

So Zhang Xun led 5,000 braided troops to Beijing. , before leaving, he asked Zhang Wensheng to lead the remaining 15,000 people to stay in Xuzhou and take good care of the house. He would wait for his restoration to succeed and then join him in Beijing.

So Zhang Xun sent a telegram to Feng Guozhang, expressing his willingness to resist Shen Hao together. Secretly, But he asked people to take Xiruan to the capital.

Looking at the back of Zhang Xun, Zhang Wensheng cursed in his heart.

He also knew that the Guangdong army was going to attack Jiangsu, and now he was asked to guard Xuzhou. Wasn't this asking for death?

Zhang Wensheng All the staff members were anxious.

They said to everyone:"Life is a gamble, and now it's a critical moment.

We currently have 15,000 people, and you say you support Feng Guozhang in protecting Jiangsu.

Or just go against it and surrender to President Shen?"

Everyone present looked at each other and said nothing.

But their eyes were full of doubts. What does Zhang Wensheng mean? Is it a test?

I don't know what Zhang Wensheng means, and no one wants to be the leader.

For them Generally speaking, whoever wins will follow him, and there is no need to offend others.

Seemingly understanding everyone, Zhang Wensheng explained:"Our Yangtze River patrol envoy, Mr. Zhang Xun, has already gone to the capital with five thousand direct descendants.

We have all been abandoned. Do you think I am testing you?"

Everyone was stunned. They really didn't know that Zhang Xun had run away.

When they heard the news, they were also flustered and at a loss. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

At this time, a brigade commander He stood up and said:"With our strength, how can we fight against the Guangdong army?

Isn't this courting death?

What's more, if Zhang Xun runs away and the Beiyang government has no money, who will pay our military pay?"

"That's right, brothers haven't seen their military pay for two months, and the brothers below are also making a big fuss."

"I won't fight the Guangdong army. If I want to fight you, I don't think I have the ability."

"I don't have the ability. The entire army only has 12 75mm field guns.

The other heavy machine guns were all taken away by patrol envoy Zhang.

The Hanyang made in the hands of brothers, facing the powerful Guangdong army, isn't this just a fire stick?"

".The morale of the brothers is very low now and they are not willing to fight.

The purpose of being a soldier is not just to make ends meet, but now there is no military pay, and no one is willing to work hard."

Everyone said to me, it is obvious that they are not willing to fight against the Guangdong army.

This is not an old man who hangs himself to die.

Knowing what everyone means, Zhang Wensheng He took the initiative and said:"Since everyone has the same idea as me, let me first make it clear that I am not willing to fight with the Guangdong army.

There is still self-knowledge.

The opponent has everything from land, sea and air to us. We are no match at all.[]

So, I decided to lead the whole division to surrender to the Guangdong army, what do you think?"

After saying that, Zhang Wensheng stared at the crowd carefully, wanting to see their struggle.

But what Zhang Wensheng never expected was that the expressions on everyone's faces showed no trace of emotion. Tangled, but all of them were relieved.

Some were even a little excited and expecting.

Seeing this, Zhang Wensheng could only sigh at the strength of the Guangdong army.

When Yuan Shikai died, the Beiyang warlords began to split, forming the Zhili clique, the Anhui clique, and the Fengcian clique. There are three major factions. These three major warlord factions have successively controlled the Beiyang regime, and have had their own glory.

After Yuan Shikai was buried, the previous conflicts within the Beiyang warlords were completely exposed, and they began to split..The two main factions of the Zhili clique and the Anhui clique were formed.

Of course, the Guangdong army does not count, and the Guangdong army no longer belongs to the Beiyang forces. Although Zhang Xun is a veteran of Beiyang, he does not belong to these two major warlord factions. He has his own braids. Army.

And Zhang Xun was a die-hard"Qing fan". During the Revolution of 1911, Zhang Xun led his troops to fight against the revolutionary party in Jiangnan to safeguard the rule of the Qing Dynasty. However, Zhang Xun could not resist the torrent of the revolution. In the end, the Qing Dynasty still perished.

Therefore, everyone does not have much sincerity towards Zhang Xun and the others. It is just a relationship between superiors and subordinates.

They will listen to whoever pays the military.

"I listen to Mr. Zhang"

"Me too"

"I also listen to Master Zhang."

Everyone was talking and willing to surrender.

This made Zhang Wensheng very satisfied, even though he was the number one general under Zhang Xun.

But when people go up, water flows down.
