Lu Yongxiang is like being put on a stove now. Of course, the stove needs to be lit today.
Faced with the aggressive momentum of the Feng faction, Duan Qirui is said to have no choice. What can he, a local warlord who favors East China, do?
Fighting is definitely not possible, losing is certain, and the reputation is very likely to be ruined; surrendering is definitely not acceptable, after all, everyone has the heart of love, and he has spent countless efforts to achieve his current status. Furthermore, the fact that the Anhui clique is still active on the central stage and that Duan Qirui can be elected to power has a lot to do with the fact that he, the "only remaining" Anhui clique cadre, is still in office.
With the power of one person, the safety of the entire system is protected, and the responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai!
He sighed long and short, which could not help but attract someone's attention.
"Father, does the fact that the People's Army is going south make you uneasy?"
The speaker was his eldest son Lu Xiaojia, the young marshal of Zhejiang and Shanghai whom he was proud of - of course not the same as the young marshal from Northeast China, but he also performed well.
Just a few days ago, Shanghai Police Chief Xu Guoliang, who was the only one at odds with Lu Yongxiang, was shot dead in a Shanghai hot spring bathhouse. He died in Niu Huilin Hospital after rescue efforts failed.
Xu Guoliang is the king of Shanghai Baidao who controls 8,000 policemen. This murder case was quickly solved with the highest efficiency. The killer surnamed Li was quickly captured. It was revealed that the mastermind behind it was the son of Lu Xiaojia and Lu Yongxiang. Hired killer Wang Yaqiao to do it at a low price.
¡°However, this case was later dropped because of Lu Xiaojia¡¯s identity. Unless Lu Yongxiang can be defeated politically, Xu Guoliang's revenge will never be avenged. This is the national condition.
The reason why the two sides have such a deep feud is simply because they compete for dominance in Shanghai.
Logically speaking, Shanghai should traditionally be under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu, so what does Lu Yongxiang, the governor of Zhejiang, have to do with it? However, considering that Lu Yongxiang served as the Protector of Songhu for a long time, and after he was promoted to the governor of Zhejiang, he recommended his subordinate He Fenglin to take over, it can be seen that Shanghai is still his territory.
Since many important departments in Shanghai are controlled by him, he can still control Shanghai after serving as the governor of Zhejiang. If Xu Guoliang wants to come forward, he has to see whether Lu Yongxiang agrees? Lu Xiaojia killed someone, and He Fenglin clearly protected him. However, in order to pay attention to the impact, Lu Xiaojia still returned to Zhejiang. This is called flying far away and out of sight.
Lu Yongxiang was not angry when his eldest son hired a murderer. Instead, he felt complacent, saying that Naozi was like a general and a tiger. In addition, Xu Guoliang's death made his influence in Shanghai even greater.
Until the People's Army occupied Nanjing and approached Suzhou, pointing to Hangzhou in the distance.
"Yes! The Zhang family and his son are trying to drive out our Anhui clan!" He sighed generously.
"Do you want me to go to Beijing to find out about the young marshal? I still had a friendship with him when we were in Tianjin. Besides, there is no hatred between me and him. He won't do that, right?" Lu Xiaojia asked .
"Silly boy! There is no friendship in politics. As for hatred, what kind of hatred do we have with Xu Guoliang? It's not about power and profit! The Feng clan wants to control the country, and we are the obstacle in front of it. This is hatred! All over the world! Below, it is the king's land; on the shore of the land, it is the king's ministers. There are only two roads before me, fight or surrender. But no matter which road, it is a dead end for our weak Zhejiang!"
Lu Yongxiang has a clear view of the current situation.
"But I still want to give it a try! Although everyone in charge of Duan now sees that he is a puppet, after all, the veil of the alliance between Anhui and Fenghui has not been torn off. It is said that the Kuomintang and the Fengtian clique are fighting fiercely in Beijing. Now all parties have Paying attention to the changes in the situation in Beijing, if the Feng clique takes action against both families at the same time, the big bosses in other places in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, and Shanxi will definitely have ideas.
So my son judged that the Feng clan should still be able to use the guise of 'peace' now. As long as we know our interests and give them enough face, I think they won't do anything to my father for the time being. "
It makes perfect sense! Lu Yongxiang was very pleased: "Why don't you try it? If it doesn't work, I'll give it to them in Shanghai!" At this point, his cheek teeth became sore.
Shanghai is his blessed land and the economic lifeline for his current strength. Otherwise, no matter how rich Zhejiang is, the province's finances will not be able to support so many troops. Now I have to bear the pain of giving up my love, which must be very sad.
But because of Shanghai's economic status, he judged that the Fengclique would definitely get involved - it was also the economic lifeline that the Kuomintang relied on for survival. If the Fengclique challenged the Kuomintang, they would definitely want to draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron. Rather than watching it be occupied by the People's Army, it is better to use it as a bargaining chip in exchange for temporary peace in Zhejiang.
As for the future, I¡¯m sorry, they don¡¯t have a future, so they won¡¯t think about the future.
Now Lu Xiao?Sitting opposite Zhang Hanqing, he became a guest of Zhang's house.
"Han Qing, what do you think?" he asked.
He seriously stated the consequences of the Fengtian clique being at odds with the Kuomintang and Anhui clique at the same time, and believed that the other party would understand better; he hinted at the number and equipment of the Zhejiang army, but of course he did not dare to provoke the other party; he hoped that the Fengjun army would stop in Suzhou and negotiate with Zhejiang A peace treaty comes.
In this regard, Zhang Hanqing declined to comment. He had a long history with Lu Xiaojia, and he was once known as one of the "Four Beauties of the Republic of China" along with Pu Dong and Yuan Kewen, but so what? Although Lu Xiaojia seems to have some political excellence, he is not much better than Pu Dong and Yuan Kewen because he still cannot see through the situation here.
"Reunification of China is the real peace, while separatism is the real cause of harm to China and no benefit to it. Back then, it was okay to have a separatist regime, but now this kind of thing cannot be tolerated!
However, Lu Xiaojia was half right, that is, it is really not suitable to fall out with the Anhui clique at this stage, because compared to Lu Yongxiang, who is a martial artist, the Kuomintang clique with influence, military strength, money, and people is a serious concern, and they still have the use of Written by Duan Qirui.
"The three-party anti-Zhili alliance was personally confirmed and concluded by several leaders. However, your father did not implement it well at all. He let Qi Xieyuan go and caused us to suffer a lot of losses when we went south. Originally, as long as he could go back and forth, In a flanking attack, the war would not have lasted so long, and the British bombardment of Nanjing would not have happened! So, he has a great responsibility in this matter!"
Is this putting the responsibility squarely on Lu Yongxiang? In fact, no matter whether the Zhejiang Army joins or whether the Zhili Army retreats faster, the British can always find excuses as long as their mentality of warning China remains unchanged. As the saying goes, if you want to impose a crime, there is no excuse. Is this kind of thing still rare in modern China?
And Qi Xieyuan only struggled for 6 days - starting from the time when the Feng Dynasty issued a memorandum. This speed is fast enough. According to the normal march time, the People's Army could not complete the journey from crossing the river to Suzhou in less than five days. He even managed to hold on for one more day!
In such a short time, even if Lu Yongxiang wants to attack from a flank, he still has to be able to keep up with the speed of the People's Army!
But just as Moscow does not believe in tears, Zhang Hanqing will also choose to ignore this fact. There is only one argument among the Fengtian faction: the Zhejiang Army failed to fulfill its obligations to the Allies and even signed a peace agreement privately with the enemy. This is a breach of contract!
It¡¯s time to fight!
"My father also had difficulties in this matter." Lu Xiaojia could not avoid this fact, because the treaty was published in a newspaper. At that time, Lu Yongxiang was very proud of his actions to "protect the country and the people." Zhejiang newspapers even praised him highly for this.
"The young marshal's army has not moved yet, and my father's troops are not strong enough to resist Qi Xieyuan, so he can only make this strategy to hold back the Zhili army." He said so quibly, and also lost no time in praising Zhang Hanqing: "If the Zhejiang army has a young marshal With half the combat effectiveness of the army, I believe that my father dares to go head-to-head with the Zhizhi Army."
"Really?" Zhang Hanqing smiled. According to this, Lu Yongxiang is still a master who can endure hardships and endure hardships! Isn't that more terrifying than Gou Jian?
"Since the Zhejiang army can't even protect the country and the people, why are they arming so many people? I think that in the subsequent abolition of the superintendent and the reduction of troops, Zhejiang can only retain one division at most!" he said.
Abolition of supervisors and reduction of troops is a long-term national policy. Two years of hard work has only turned many supervisors into "supervisors" in name. Of course, there are still some called "supervisors" in private. As for troop reduction, it was still the result of two wars.
The "abolition of governors" planned by Zhang Hanqing this time is to remove all "supervisors" and "supervisors" in the country; the "disarmament" is to coordinate the reduction of all disobedient warlords' private soldiers in various places. It is serious. necessary.
Didn¡¯t Lu Yongxiang use the excuse that Zhejiang soldiers could not fight? Then it¡¯s time to cut it off! Why does the army that cannot fight support him? Want to eat?
For the first time, Lu Xiaojia felt pressured by Zhang Hanqing's strength. The assassination of Xu Guoliang was a show of bravery and a small pride for him; Zhang Hanqing's suppression of the Zhejiang army was politics, conspiracy, and just a joke.
"The Zhejiang soldiers are more than capable of protecting themselves, but of course they cannot compete with Han Qing's army! My father said that in order to express his apology, he is willing to make efforts for the People's Army to enter Shanghai smoothly!" As a last resort, Lu Xiaojia threw out the bait.
Like his father, he does not want to give up his territory in Shanghai. For Lu Yongxiang, it is a political and economic need, and for him it is a matter of face.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There would be an earthquake if you just stomped your feet on the beach! Because of his father's relationship, he was definitely the number one brother in Shanghai, where he also earned a reputation as one of the "Four Young Masters of the Republic of China".
This is the promise of real money. The vanguard of the People's Army has reached Zhangjiagang, so it did not enter Shanghai because it was worried that the advance of troops would cause market turmoil. As China's largest concession and the largest financial center in China and even Asia, Shanghai is of symbolic significance to the Fengcian faction in stabilizing the situation in East China.
There can be no chaos in Shanghai.
Lu Yongxiang has the ability to ensure a smooth handover in Shanghai because the military guard He Qifeng is his subordinate and because of his influence.
"Watch his words as well as his actions." Zhang Hanqing said slowly: "I believe that Governor Lu is capable, so I also want to see his sincerity. The three-party alliance is not just about words!"
Lu Xiaojia was overjoyed. The change of Lu Yongxiang in Zhang Hanqing's mouth from "your father" to "Supervisor Lu" is equivalent to the change of Zhang Hanqing's attitude. Zhejiang is saved!
