The engineer battalion manager led Liu Yuanxun to quit: "My lord, we are responsible for defending the soil. Even if we know we are invincible, we should rush forward. Now with the cooperation of the 34th Association, we still have hope of victory. If the rebel army wipes out the 34th Association, Aren't we just sitting there waiting to die?"

Liu Yuanxun originally didn't want to be placed in the 33rd Association. In his opinion, none of these corrupt post-golden officials is useful. If you want to serve as a soldier, you might as well go to the 34th Association. After all, there are more old brothers there.However, in order to develop the power of the Vanguard Party in the 33 Association, Pan Wenhua must have his own assistants, so Liu Yuanxun and other party members who were born in military training were sent here.

Pan Wenhua has developed hundreds of party members in the middle and lower levels of the 33rd Association, and has also made a group of good brothers among the officers.Today, Zhong Ying's indecision once again aroused everyone's dissatisfaction. If he didn't take this opportunity to overthrow Zhong Ying and control the 33 Association in his own hands, Pan Wenhua's visit this time would be for nothing.

"Master Xietong, those mobs are just a mob assembled impromptu, and they don't even have a few guns. Why don't we dispatch the whole army to attack them from behind, so that we can get all the results." Pan Wenhua continued to stir up trouble.

"That's right, my lord. What Pan Biaotong said makes sense. As long as we attack with the 34th Association back and forth, it will not be difficult to defeat the mob." Although he is not familiar with Pan Wenhua, Zhou Daogang, who was born in the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy, is also a Biaotong support his opinion.

"What nonsense, if our entire army is wiped out, there will be no strong army in Sichuan, what will happen to this mountainous city?" Zhong Ying sternly shouted at his subordinates.

"If my lord does not send troops, please let me lead my troops to attack, and I will definitely wipe out the mob." Zhou Daogang also has a soldier's temper, and he was not angry when he heard that Zhong Ying was timid and still found so many reasons.

"Nonsense, those who don't listen to the general's orders will not be forgiven. Everyone back down, I want to be quiet." Zhong Ying scolded Zhou Daogang, and then waved everyone back.

"Brother Zhou, you were too impulsive just now, it's very disrespectful to Lord Xietong." Pan Wenhua took the opportunity to come over to comfort Zhou Daogang, in order to draw the relationship between the two closer.

"This guy Zhong Ying, when he was studying in the Lu Shi of the Japanese country, he was a guy who was just waiting to die. If it wasn't for his status as the Houjin royal family, how could he be in the position of Xietong." Zhou Daogang looked down on Zhong Ying from the bottom of his heart That kind of people.Zhong Ying is from the Yellow Banner of the Later Jin Dynasty, and his father is called Jin Chang, who was once an official to the deputy capital of Mingjing.

When Zhong Ying was a teenager, she went to study with Lu Shi in the Japanese country, but unfortunately she was expelled soon after.Although he was expelled after failing to study for a few days, he regarded himself as a Lu Shisheng and praised himself in front of others all day long.The imperial court was worried that there were not many available talents among the Empress Jin royal family, and now seeing him claiming to be Lu Shisheng, no matter whether it was true or not, he was appointed to Zhongchuan to help train the new army.

Zhong Ying's eloquence is very good, and when it comes to military affairs, she is very good at it. Although it is only superficial, it seems to Xi Liang who has no military knowledge, but it is a talent.Because of Zhong Ying's eloquence, and because of his status as a yellow flag, Ma Weiqi recommended him to take over as Xie Tong after he brought some officers of the 33rd Association to teach the new army.

Chapter 171

Although Ma Weiqi was in charge of the new army, he didn't know much about the latest tactics and tactics, so he was deceived by Zhong Ying.Zhao Erxun didn't know much about human affairs when he first came here, so he wanted to show off Ma Weiqi's face, so he readily agreed, but he didn't expect such a person to steal an important position.

"Brother Zhou, don't be angry, there is no reason to talk to this kind of person." Pan Wenhua persuaded.

Zhou Daogang sighed: "It's better to continue to be my general manager in the Armed Forces Academy. It's better than being angry here. I figured it out. If you don't replace senior officers with people who understand military affairs, the new army will have no way out." Zhou Daogang once He served as the general office of the Military Academy, and he was not transferred to the new army until the Military Academy was handed over to Zhao Shouhong.In the army, the chief is always a dignitary with no military knowledge. For Lu Shisheng like him, arguing with a group of laymen is the most helpless thing for him.

"Forget it, let's go drink. Brother Zhou's great talent is indeed difficult to display. When I was studying in the Armed Forces Academy, I heard your speech many times. I don't think it's too much for you to be the coordinator." .” Pan Wenhua greeted Zhou Daogang to drink.Although the two are not very close, they have a teacher-student friendship, and there is a lot less estrangement when talking.

"Brother Zhou, please be safe, anger hurts you a lot. Who would have thought that the most useless student climbed on top of you and me, so please take care of everything." With Xu Xiaogang also echoed.

"Back then, our brothers jointly took charge of the Armed Forces School, the Army Primary School, the Official Bian School, the Army Crash School, and the Army Lecture Hall to train our own new officers in Zhongchuan. Who would have thought that all the schools have declined now, except for Hu Jingyi's The Army Elementary School is still struggling to support it, but Master Zhao turned the Armed Forces Academy into an Army University, which is really a pity." Zhou Daogang was very depressed, but he was still dragged to drink by several other people.

At that time, Zhou Daogang, Xu Xiaogang, Hu Jingyi, Zhang Yi, Liu Hongkui, and Xu Haiqing went to the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy to study military affairs. After returning, they entered the military preparation school, the Army Primary School, the Guanbian School, the Army Crash School, and the Army Lecture Hall established by Zhongchuan. , to train middle and lower-level officers, which was cited as a good story at that time.Unexpectedly, in just a few years, several people were transferred to the army, and most of the schools were closed down. Pan Wenhua knew about this.

Pan Wenhua has a good impression of these six graduates of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy. Therefore, when he finds that they are dissatisfied, he hopes to draw them into his camp and recruit talents for the Vanguard Party to expand its strength.

Pan Wenhua warmly invited them all to the best restaurant in Chongshan City, and then he ordered a table of good wine and food and said to the other three people: "Today is my brother's treat, and I will relieve everyone's anger. Anyone who is angry can do as much as possible." Drinking and eating vegetables, it’s not your fault that you make me poor.”

What Pan Wenhua said was heroic, and he donated money so generously, the three of them immediately liked it, and they raised their glasses to toast immediately, and the four of them drank happily.The wine table culture of the Hualan people has a long history, and the wine table is the easiest place for the two parties to get closer. Pan Wenhua quickly drew closer to the other three people through the banquet.

"You come to comment on this theory. In China, those with talent and learning are suppressed, and those without talent and learning can rise to the top as long as they are born in the royal family. Is this fair?" Liu Hongkui obviously drank too much, and his words were no longer cautious.

Seeing that Liu Hongkui finally started to complain, Pan Wenhua knew that he was almost drunk, so he pretended to be panicked and went to the door of the private room, saw that there was no one in the corridor, and closed the door tightly again.Then he sat back in his seat and said to Liu Hongkui: "Brother Liu, please don't say it loudly, this kind of words are not casual, if they reach Master Xietong's ears, it will be bad luck for you and me."

"Whatever he does, let me tell you, these high-ranking officials should all be killed. Every corpse is a vegetarian, watching the friendly army fight hard but standing idly by, is this human?" Liu Hongkui didn't care at all, and his voice became louder.

"Keep down, what's the use of complaining? Isn't it true that we were born as civilians and have no influence behind us?" Zhou Daogang was drinking, and when he heard Liu Hongkui's words were really outrageous, he stopped him.

"Dao Gang, don't stop him, he is right. I found that we have become more and more timid in the past two years. Where is the high spirits at the beginning? Now that we are an official, we have become submissive." Xu Xiaogang is obviously full Suppressed, with this introduction today, there is a lot of embarrassment.

"If you want me to say, it's right for Brother Zhou to be the coordinator. Why is he expelled after only two days of school, because he can enjoy a high position in the royal family, we should be scolded by him, he knows nothing .” The more Liu Hongkui said, the angrier he became.

"It's fine for my brother to talk about this kind of thing, don't make it public." Zhou Daogang didn't drink so much, and he was still sober at this time.Therefore, when Liu Hongkui said something that violated the taboo, he immediately dissuaded him and looked at Pan Wenhua while speaking.

Pan Wenhua said with a smile: "Let me tell you, the three of you are all my seniors, elites who have stayed abroad. What Zhong Ying did this time is indeed unkind. If things continue like this, the 34th Association may not escape bad luck. Wait until When the mob is powerful and dares to attack us, Phoenix Mountain will not be able to hold on."

"That's right, I think we should do it ourselves and pull the team out. Go to Danzhou and join hands with the brothers from the 34th Association. Are you afraid that you won't be able to defeat the mob who can't even shoot?" Xu Xiaogang said .

"Yes, let's go by ourselves." Liu Hongkui also thumped the table with his fist.

"We can't go by ourselves. If there is no order from the Xietong, let alone it is difficult to take people out. Even if we take them out and win the battle, we will be charged with the crime of self-propelled soldiers with intent to rebel, and finally wait for us It might be the guillotine." Zhou Daogang hastily stopped.

Just now when he brought the three of them to drink, Pan Wenhua had his own intentions, so he secretly sent Liu Yuanxun away.Now seeing that the fire is almost ready, Pan Wenhua provocatively said: "Maybe this is an opportunity. Of course we can't go by ourselves. If we bring some cronies to force the palace and force Zhong Ying to agree to send troops, as long as we win the battle, he will benefit us. Also promoted, he will naturally not consider our sins."

"It makes sense, let's go now." Liu Hongkui got up and ran outside after speaking.

"Even if we go, we should discuss the specific details first. We can't attack the Xietong mansion indiscriminately. It will be beheaded." Zhou Daogang hastily stopped him, but Liu Hongkui had already left quickly, so he had to chase after him with Xu Xiaogang.Pan Wenhua, who was following behind, had a smile on his mouth, and his plan was about to succeed.

Chapter 172 Assassination Alliance

The three of them rushed directly to Xie Tong's mansion with a few guards of their own, but Pan Wenhua would not be so reckless.While sending a signal to Liu Yuanxun, the convener, he also secretly transferred the defenders around the mansion through the vanguard party members inside.Without knowing it, there were actually not many guards around Zhong Ying.

The three of them broke into the mansion directly with the guards. To Zhou Daogang's surprise, there was not a single guard in sight at the mansion, which is usually heavily guarded. It was not until they were about to approach Zhong Ying's study that they were stopped by four personal guards. down.

"Stop, what are you going to do?" The four guards felt a little wrong when they saw the three Biaotong adults rushing forward with the soldiers.

"Get out of the way, we have an urgent matter to meet Lord Xietong." Xu Xiaogang shouted.

"Back back, if you want to go in, disarm first." The guard didn't give in at all.

Zhou Dao just knew that riding a tiger is hard to get off at this time. If they don’t succeed, the three of them will lose their heads. He pulled out the pistol from his waist and waved his hand at the back: “Get the guns of these guards down for me, we are in a hurry.”

A group of soldiers swarmed in, and the four guards were dumbfounded with fright. They were shot down without making any resistance.Zhou Daogang, Liu Hongkui, Xu Xiaogang and Pan Wenhua led the soldiers directly into the study.

Zhong Ying, who was reading a book in the room, felt strange when she heard the commotion outside.Before he had time to come out to see what was going on, the door was violently knocked open, and then a large group of officers and soldiers in uniforms of the new army rushed in, Zhong Ying was dumbfounded at the time.

Taking a closer look, all the signs were there, and Zhong Ying suddenly became angry from the guts: "Do you still have any rules? How is it proper to lead troops to break in? Don't tell me you want to rebel?"

Zhou Daogang immediately said: "My lord, we have no choice but to act. The 34th Association is at stake. We can't do nothing. So let's come together and ask your lord to issue a military order so that we can mobilize our troops to replenish ammunition and unite with the 34th Association to wipe out the mob in one fell swoop." .”

"Bastard, you are rebelling, you are all rebelling. I will not send this soldier. If you want to send troops, you can kill me first." Zhong Ying didn't listen to Zhou Daogang at all. At this time, he was already in a state of extreme anger , I can't listen to anyone's words.

Zhong Ying's fury made Zhou Daogang and the others a little panicked. Liu Hongkui was brave just now, but now he rushed in but didn't know what to do.Pan Wenhua deliberately lagged behind by half a step, and gave several members of the Vanguard Party winks. One of them understood, and under the cover of several companions, he secretly took out a pistol from his arms and fired several shots at Zhong Ying.

The gunshots rang out, and the room suddenly became chaotic. The soldiers picked up their rifles and looked around nervously. However, under the cover of his comrades, the soldier quietly put away his pistol and retreated slowly, and soon left the study. "Give me peace." Zhou Dao had just managed to stabilize the crowd with all his strength. When everyone checked, they found that Zhong Ying had died on the ground with her eyes wide open.

"What happened now, Xietong was beaten to death, we can't get rid of the charge of leading troops to rebel." Xu Xiaogang suddenly smiled wryly.

"Don't panic." Zhou Daogang lowered his head, inspected Zhong Ying's body for a moment and said, "This wound was caused by a pistol, and the four shots in total should have come from the same gun. Only officers have pistols here." Zhou Daogang stood up Come and look at the people around you.

Because they came in a hurry, they brought their own guards. Only Pan Wenhua 'coincidentally' met Liu Yuanxun and his soldiers, which made the palace so powerful. That is to say, the only officers here are Zhou Daogang, Liu Hongkui, Xu Xiaogang, Liu Yuanxun and Pan Wenhua.

Zhou Dao just glanced at his two good friends, and finally fixed his eyes on Pan Wenhua.With an innocent expression on his face, Pan Wenhua consciously pulled the pistol from his waist out of the holster, and handed it to Zhou Daogang casually.Zhou Dao just smiled apologetically and took the pistol. He took out the magazine and looked at it. The bullets in it were full and had not been fired. The muzzle of the pistol did not have any heat or smell of gunpowder. Obviously, it had not been fired in a short time. Pass.Immediately afterwards, Liu Xiang also took out his own pistol and handed it to Zhou Daogang for inspection, but it was also not fired.

Zhou Daogang frowned tightly. In order to show fairness, he checked the guns of his two good friends, and then took out his own gun for everyone to check. "No, there are soldiers hiding pistols here." Xu Xiaogang suddenly came to his senses: "Everyone line up and search one by one."

It's a pity that Pan Wenhua had thought of Xu Xiaogang's thoughts a long time ago. After everyone was busy, they didn't find any pistols on their bodies. Zhou Daogang and the three of them immediately became depressed.Seeing that the time was ripe, Pan Wenhua said: "Now is not the time to be discouraged, everyone should think about how to get rid of the crime."

"What else can we do? Do we need someone to top the tank?" Liu Hongkui sighed.

"The people here are all my own brothers, so what if we find out? If you are looking for someone to top the tank, it is not a human thing to do it to your own brothers." Liu Yuanxun also answered.

"That's right, here are all my brothers, but you don't have to use your own brothers to top the tank." Pan Wenhua smiled slightly.
