Chapter 142: Solve (I)

Captain Hui Yingci walked into the large courtyard of the Shanxi Provincial Security Command with a little reserved pace. The first graduate of the fourth term of Baoding, the first division of the Anmeng Army, the 9th Division of Xuzhou, and the 18th Division of Wuhan, all named him. However, the son of the Jiangsu landlord who had always been very smart was unexpectedly recruited by Bai Siwen. He became a lieutenant intern of the National Unified Security Commission (National Defense Army Military Intelligence Bureau). He is now assigned to Shanxi Station of the National Unified Security Commission in Shanxi, and is responsible for contacting the Jin army and monitoring the Beiyang Army in Shaanxi.

At that time, he also began to plan intelligence planning for the entire northwest. You should know that in the northwest provinces of the motherland, Qing, Ning, Gan and other provinces are still the world of local tyrants, and Xinjiang is even far away from Yumen, and it is almost impossible to understand the mainland of the motherland. And there are ambitious countries such as Russia and Japan around him. Putting Hui Yingci in such a vital intelligence station is a recognition of his ability. But why did this young talent who was not very interested in Yuchen choose to enter the direct intelligence system of Yuchen's direct line, and among his classmates at the same time, he was also a mystery.

Today is a routine security report with the Shanxi Security Command. Their National Unified Security Committee has coordinated the defense of Shanxi Province in Shanxi. The entire Shanxi Province has now established a security command, and the 26th Division of the Central Army, which is directly under the command of the Shanxi Division. This Shanxi Division is basically a continuation of the original Shanxi Mixed Brigade. There are only four regiments that are not satisfied with the division, with more than 6,000 people, and most of the equipment is left over from the Qing Dynasty.

Come. Although Yan Xishan regained the power of Shanxi after Yuan Shikai's fall, he had expanded the security team, the Iron Blood Fighting Group, the Death Team and other miscellaneous teams, expanding the security headquarters' troops to more than 12,000, facing the pressure of more than 40,000 Beiyang Army in Shaanxi, he still had almost no power to fight back. He could only rely on the natural danger in Hedong to maintain his own protection. The remaining essence of the Beiyang Army, the 4th Division, pressed in front of Huguan and broke through.

With the mountains and ridges in this area, the essence of the entire Jin Province will be revealed. If it weren't for the 2nd Division of the An Meng Army's current defense of Jin Province and the 21st Division of the An Meng Army guarded the front line of the Great Wall of Jin Province, Yan Xishan would probably be ready to be the governor in exile. It is precisely because his current status must be maintained by Yuchen for him, so everyone estimates that his position as an independent governor and security commander would not be too long. It's just that he has always been in the Yuchen system

It was because Yuchen had to think of a good way to get him to step down with decent, so that he would be delayed in Shanxi until today. The provincial senators elected from Jin Province have repeatedly asked the Central and Local Autonomous Ministry to ask them to let Governor Yan take office as soon as possible so as to elect their new elected governor. These representatives, mainly Shanxi merchants, still remember when the revival, Governor Yan led troops to blackmail Shanxi merchants and raised hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to establish Shanxi Bank.

However, Captain Hui Yingci didn't care about these things. As an intelligence officer, he just wanted to do his job well. These achievements in the northwest are the foundation of his career in the future. When he entered the intelligence department, he also learned from the deepest part of the Yuchen system about the composition of this group, the source of power, the way of combining, and to see what path they will take in the future.

When he walked into the conference room in the Shanxi Security Command, he saw a very funny scene inside. On both sides of the conference table, headed by Yan Xishan, Governor Yan, who rarely attended the meeting, Zhang Peimei, the commander of the 26th Division, was the deputy. A row of officers with shining shoulder stamps were facing President Yuchen's standards hanging on the wall. Yuchen was always smiling respectfully! The portrait was filled with a solemn smile, while the Shanxi officers below were the only ones.

A pious look really formed a very ridiculous scene in the dim conference room. He heard Yan Xishan say in a strong Wutai accent: "Licheng!" Everyone put down his hands, and he turned around and saw Captain Hui Yingci, with a smile on his face: "Comrade Hui! You are here too, sit down! Come on, come for tea! Captain Hui did not greet him even when he came? You guys should fight!"

Seeing the powerful Governor Yan greeting him so enthusiastically, Hui Yingci's face was full of fear and fear. She stood at attention at Yan Xishan with a smile and said, "Commander Yan, you are the chief, and your class is far more than me. Although everyone belongs to two systems, you don't have to be so polite to your subordinates. Just give me instructions if you have anything to do." Yan Xishan took Hui Yingci's hand but smiled and sat down on his head: "You represent the central government here, and you, the website master Huang, and the young talent, my respect is the same... Today is the day of the president's wedding, we

The officers and soldiers under his command were extremely regretful if they could not rush to Nanjing to watch the ceremony. So Yan and his officers and soldiers stood together, saluted to the portrait of the president, and expressed their congratulations in their hearts." After he said this, the officers below nodded one after another, and everyone was scrambling to express their admiration for the young president. Although Hui Yingci was calm, they were also a little dazzled by the scene. After a while, everyone seemed to remember that Hui Yingci came to report on the security situation in front of the Shanxi Province every day, and the movements of the Beiyang Army of Shaanxi Province, they all stopped their voices and sat upright in their seats.

Hui Yingci opened his official folder and suddenly felt a little funny: "What did Yan Xishan do like this? His life in Jin Province is not long. Yuchen's intention to concentrate local military power on the central government is also very obvious. Yan Xishan has no intention of taking office to participate in the election of elected governors. Now he is desperately expressing his loyalty. Do you want to make a difference in the central government? Or is it that Yuchen's search for the remaining politicians in Beiyang in Beiyang that he cold his heart and made him desperately hide his low profile?" He shook his head slightly and put away his flying thoughts. These officers of the National Unified Security Committee are often regarded as Yuchen's Jinyiwei in the local area.

Everyone thought that their eyes and ears could reach Yuchen directly. They were very awe of them. But they didn't know that they were actually just a bureau-level unit under the General Staff Department, focusing on collecting military intelligence, and they did not have as much power as they imagined! Moreover, the summary of military intelligence was also sent to the Chief of Staff. Yuchen did not directly arrest their work. For a period of time, Bai Siwen also had a political defense unit in Tianjin. It was specifically targeted at those people who were alienated from Yuchen in the political arena in the north and south. It is said that it was revoked after Yuchen took office. Since they misunderstood now, let them misunderstand to the end, and their work would be easier to carry out.

He began to inform these Jin army officers of the recent military trends in a stereotype, and finally asked them to help solve some problems. The central government did not have a unified military command in Shanxi. The 2nd Division of the An Meng Army and the 26th Division of the Jin army did not constitute affiliation. This kind of intermediary coordination work was actually the intelligence agency that had been infinitely elevated in the outside world. Now in the Republic of China, various situations and forces are mixed together. Although there are no strict norms, they are full of vitality.

"The main force of the Fourth Division of the Beiyang Army in Shaanxi has now advanced to the plateau, and seems to want to expand its power to the opium planting base there. The 58th Mixed Brigade of the 30th Central Division directly stationed in Baoji and the 63rd Mixed Brigade stationed in Fengxiang have all taken a stance of resolute resistance. The 55th Mixed Brigade of the 30th Division in Weinan has also made a stance of attacking the Beiyang troops. According to Xining intelligence, the troops of Ninghaima family also entered Shaanxi from Gansu to the invitation of the 30th Division, and are still on the front line of Lanzhou, and have a conflict with the Kong Fanjin tribe of the local Lanzhou Garrison Brigade. The situation is very chaotic...

Lei Zhenchun's unit of the Tongguan Guard Command of the Beiyang Army in Shaanxi has moved to Hedong. The defense is transferred to He Zonglian's unit of the former Guanzhong Guard Command. Lei Zhenchun's unit tends to merge with Yang Shande's unit of the Shaanxi River Defense Guard Command. The specific trends are still unknown. However, the main force of the Fourth Beiyang Division has gone west. According to the analysis, the defense of Jin Province should be without worries...

The number of opium outflows in Shaanxi is very large. Our committee is in charge and has to ask your security headquarters to increase the intensity of investigations at all Hedong gates. Our committee will send personnel to inspect at any time. If any person is found to collude with opium merchants, please ask your headquarters to deal with it intensively………”

Hearing Hui Yingci's words, Yan Xishan immediately looked at his subordinates: "Have you heard it? Now the president is strictly prohibiting smoking, smoking, selling, and planting in the country! The central government is not in the west of Guanzhong, so it is necessary to make a good hole in us. The governor has repeatedly ordered you to take good care of the various checkpoints. Why is Comrade Hui reacting to the severe outflow of Shaanxi soil? Do you still have to do it?" He turned his head angrily to Hui.

Yingci said: "Comrade Hui, just check it! If you find one, I will kill another one. You have no politeness! Now Britain and France have signed a treaty with the president to prohibit opium import. I will definitely not do anything to make the president shameless. I will definitely investigate this to the end!" Then he lost his temper at Zhang Paimei: "Hefeng, what did you do? Have I issued this order to you repeatedly before? Now that I still do such a thing, do you still have the attitude to see me? You will be dismissed on the spot first.

Don't do it anymore. As an inspector, he went to the Shanxi-Shaanxi border to accompany Comrade Hui and his men to patrol. When will it be found out, when will it be fucked, and when will it be fucked. If you catch a worm, you will have to kill one. If you find that it is you in the end, I will be polite!" Zhang Peimei's face turned red. He was the most confidant general who Yan Xishan brought out from the Shanxi Army Primary School. He often claimed that he and Yan Xishan could be entrusted with life and death. Now Yan Xishan spoke to him

So rude. He felt ashamed and annoyed. He stood up: "Governor! The head of the front-line troops took the initiative to let them go over. I can guarantee it! All brothers from the Jin army can protect it! I have never been involved in opium in my life and I don't seek dirty money. You know me! The opium flowing out of Shaanxi now is smuggled from our checkpoints, and someone else has opened a big hole in other places, which is not the fault of us!"

After Zhang Peimei said this, Hui Yingci closed his official document folder and felt very clear in his heart. Since his power was stable, Yuchen has fully promoted the ban on smoking. He placed ban on smoking and education in an equally important position, believing that it was something he had to do with all his strength. He spoke to reporters that ban on smoking is to strengthen the national body, while education is to improve the national spirit and the foundation on the road to national rejuvenation. For this reason, he gave up disputes in the concession when negotiating with foreign countries and also signed ban on smoking supplementary treaties with Western countries such as Britain, the United States, France and other countries have now used it.

When opium was making the best interests, the East India Company, the government opium dealer, had already disintegrated. They were happy to make personal favors on this, signed a treaty to agree not to import opium, and Indian and other soils would no longer be sold to the Chinese market. The domestic opium production and sales network that emerged after the Gengzi year became the target of Yuchen's key attack. He made good use of the military and national security agencies, a violent machine that was centralized in the central government. He cracked down on the coastal opium sales network. The opium merchants who had lost the source of overseas opium imports were also attacked by searches and severe punishments, and the country was unified and safe.

The entire committee played an important role in this regard. The coastal opium market suddenly withered and no longer had the "burst" scene of the past. The opium production areas in the surrounding provinces are now outside Yuchen's government orders. For example, Yunnan, Shaanxi, and Liao, the northeast. Shaanxi, Liao, and Yunnan, and Yunnan, are used in southern China. In addition to banning Liao, the northeast of the northeast, Yuchen, and Zhang Zuolin, Jiang Baili, He Sui and others, killed a group of opium merchants who colluded with Beiyang officials. The original private banks that provided loans to opium sales also used the central bank of the Restoration Bank to carry out economic attacks.

All businessmen who are involved in opium sales have been severely punished. In Hunan, Jiangxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Hubei, as the front-line provinces for smoking bans, they have strictly blocked the channels for opium imports from the mainland. Although they have invested great efforts, the mainland's opium sales network has been severely hit, and the opium merchants who have been sentenced to death in newspapers every day have been published. However, the precipitation of opium culture over the past century and huge economic benefits (some provinces are simply the economic pillars!), the input of opium into the mainland is still endless, making people realize that this is a long-term and arduous battle.

In other provinces, the tens of thousands of troops in Shaanxi are almost entirely supported by Shaanxi! As a result, the Beiyang also sells them, and the indigenous armed forces of the 30th Division are also sold. Yan Xishan has indeed made the greatest decision in Shanxi. His military and political officials rarely smoke opium, and now they don’t dare to take this money. They are indeed stuck at all checkpoints in Shanxi. There is indeed someone else who puts Shaanxi opium out of the country. This person is also a senior general in the Central Military System, and his status is transcendent because of his original status as a governor. In addition, his deep background in the Tongmenghui made him do opium re-exchange in the western Henan. That person is undoubtedly the commander of the 8th Division of the Central Army, with him.

The two direct regiments of the Gan Army, Ouyang Wu, who is in charge of Nanyang, were really indifferent to the accusations of Shanxi soldiers. Maybe Yuchen also wanted to deal with him, but he was indeed afraid of being a lie? What kind of definite evidence will Yuchen take action? This job of collecting intelligence and evidence is the scope of work of these intelligence officials. Hui Yingci contacted some documents with extremely high levels of confidentiality in the Security Committee, and vaguely linked Yuchen's solution to Shaanxi and dealing with Ouyang Wu, and could even push it further. Will Yuchen really do that? He sat on the chair and looked at the indignant look of the Shanxi officers, and suddenly became expectant.

"Guangcan, the opposite is Shanxi. Across the Yellow River, our two armies confront each other. Now in the Fengling Ferry area, Shanxi has taken out all the cannons in their province, and there are about twenty or thirty Japanese mountain artillery. They were all bought at Yan Xishan for a large price. We were naturally not afraid in the past, but now we only have 40,000 people, and our income is barely enough to eat. The equipment is not perfect, and it is impossible to force or even smuggle the Yellow River without firepower support. Qi Datou tried it here before and lost more than a hundred lives. Now a main division of the An Meng Army has also entered Shanxi, so we don't have to think about it!"

The person who spoke was the commander of the River Defense Security Command, Yang Shande, the commander of the 4th Division of the Beiyang Division. He was originally the most devoted Beiyang general. He shouted to fight back to Zhili. However, since Yuchen only published a fourth division in Shaanxi, Qi Xieyuan robbed his fourth division number, arranged his capable troops, and sent him here to guard the Yellow River. He began to become passive and depressed and complained. Now the remaining military forces in Beiyang are vaguely divided into two factions, Qi Xieyuan and He Zonglian. The unlucky people who have both been disbanded and have been dispersed now have a feeling of being in the same tragedy.

Lei Zhenchun also held a telescope and stood on the top of the simple fortifications, and looked side by side with Yang Shande at the Jin army position opposite the opposite. The Yellow River waves were surging and rolling east. The river beside the river was blowing like a knife. However, his soldiers were lazy in the winter sun in the simple and crude fortifications, catching the lice in the torn cotton jacket that had been worn for a year, without any tension in guarding river defense. He and Yang Shande now formed the so-called joint river defense headquarters, with troops known as seven regiments, but Qi Xieyuan took the rest.

More than 10,000 elderly, weak and disabled people came. They had no heavy firepower except rifles and more than ten Maxim heavy machine guns. They had insufficient ammunition and only paid enough for food. Qi Xieyuan gave them the order to take over Hedong. The genius also asked them to take up the opium business in the direction of Zijing Pass and Ouyang Wu's garrison there. They had transferred more than one million to Shanghai in the past six months, waiting to step down to work as apartment houses. They were not victims at that time? Who would still expect to work for the Beiyang, who had already entered the grave?

The two jumped into the trenches and moved their frozen bodies. Yang Shande smiled at Lei Zhenchun, "I heard that my sister-in-law brought deer tails from Zhili and the sauce meat from Dongxingju. I happened to have a few bottles of Fenjiu here. With the dishes brought by my sister-in-law, I will welcome you!" The relationship between the two was normal, but now they are in a downturn, and they actually seem to be friendly. Lei Zhenchun stomped her feet and smiled, "Let's drink here, Nanjing has been lively these days! Yuchen is married and signed before the treaty. Those nouveau riche in Jiangbei are waiting to continue to be promoted and make money. Even the old Xier on the opposite side is better than us. I heard that she would be transferred to the central government as a secondary chief...... It is also considered a high promotion!"

Yang Shande was in a good mood, but when he said this to Lei Zhenchun, he immediately fell down. He sighed: "Old Xier may not be happy, he is willing to be the position of the Emperor of Shanxi? But the times are just forcing people. He has the courage to fight against Yuchen. You can tell from his way to Old Yuan as his father... But finally he still has a fate. Unlike us, he has been born with the wrong baby, and he has already made the Beiyang mark on his body, so he can only wait for the final collapse! The soldiers are unwilling to fight at that time, I

Two box cannons were killed and pulled to death." Lei Zhenchun smiled and said, "Who said that Beiyang would not be the case? Duan Xiangyan is not the elected governor of Zhili now? It is very glorious!" Yang Shande sighed again: "I won't be like Duan Xiangyan. I heard that he was like He Zhuoran at that time, and I wish he could be his son! He is rich and has a good relationship with the gentry of Zhili... Don't look at his glory now. He has no real power. He wants to do anything in Zhili, so Yuchen pressed him to death with just one finger!"

Lei Zhenchun just smiled and patted Yang Shande on the shoulder: "Why are you complaining so much now? People in the world don't put it in your eyes. This is unlucky, and the future is over. First, think about our fate! Now the people are determined. Yuchen settled the matter abroad and was about to take action against us. Look, he must have fought against us and the provinces in the south and southwest. He is not afraid of war, and all the reasons are on his side. If we, the provinces that are still independent, may be the final decision as you said!"

Yang Shande smiled indifferently: "A man died and birds are coming up! Go to drink! He wants to fight, and he always has to find an excuse. We will make a fucking profit if we live one more day. Let's talk about what happens then. Anyway, we brothers are together now, and we share life and death!"
