    Henan.

    In Zhangde Longevity Garden, Qi Yaolin slightly bent down and followed the housekeeper without saying a word. Although he was the chief envoy of Henan and was already a master outside, compared with this he was really nothing.  Soil difference.

    Especially along the way, the courtyard was full of strong and powerful men, carrying German Mauser rifles and hanging cannons on their waists. There were even a few officers wearing Beiyang military uniforms running back and forth. Even "seclusion" could be so prominent, in the Qing Dynasty.  , I¡¯m afraid only this person can set up this score!  After passing through a courtyard gate, she saw the familiar figure walking towards the side hall. Qi Yaolin quickly ran a few steps over to say hello: "Henan Chief Minister Qi Yaolin has met Lord Gongbao."

    "Oh, it's Zhenyan, haha" Yuan Shikai has been a little confused recently. He has been wondering about the price and the conditions before he comes out. He doesn't want to go back to the past where he was almost killed by the Qing Dynasty.  So she didn't see him until Qi Yaolin spoke. The green shirt and mandarin jacket made him look much more elegant. She smiled and helped him up and said, "I no longer have an official position. Zhenyan just call me palace protector."

    "I don't dare. I don't dare." Qi Yaolin didn't dare to address this person directly, and quickly took out a record from her sleeve: "Sir, this is what I have seen and heard in Henan recorded by someone from my humble position in the past few days. I learned that Yang Mianzhai of the Wuchang Post-event Consultation Bureau  He's been jumping up and down, and he's been in and out of the military camp many times. I want you to be in Henan now, so I'm sending you a report here so that you can prepare early if anything happens."

    "Zhenyan is determined." Yuan Shikai knew Qi Yaolin's thoughts. He took the detailed record, looked at it twice, grabbed it in his hand and asked, "Has Governor Baofen made a decision?"

    "After the imperial court ordered the army to enter Hubei, Baofen has already ordered the 52 patrols to go south. I am afraid that they have already reached Wusheng Pass. In addition, I heard rumors in the mansion that he has sent people to keep an eye on Ying Longxiang every day in the past few days, because Yinglong  Xianghe and Li Yuanhong were related by marriage, and he met with Zhang Xiyuan many times at night and ordered Chai Degui to return the remaining 13th Patrol Battalion to Kaifeng City as soon as possible just in case."

    ¡°I guess he¡¯s still a bit alert.¡±

    Qi Yaolin added: "Sir, Henan is really not at peace these days. Those party members have jumped out to make trouble, and they have publicly called for learning from Wuchang many times Do you think you should take a lower position?"

    "No need, you don't have to interfere in this matter. If they want to make trouble, they can make trouble. I don't believe that Henan can turn the world upside down?"

    "Haha, I'm worrying too much about my humble position. I'm not afraid of chaos no matter how many parties there are when adults are in charge." Qi Yaolin quickly flattered her. Yuan Shikai frowned after hearing this: "Although I am here, you should not relax your vigilance, especially  The military must strictly guard it! If not, Wuchang is an example."

    Yuan Shikai sighed again after taking care of him, and shook his head with seemingly endless regret: "Hey! This Song Qing, I met him once, but how could I be confused! He really thought that being a member of the party could achieve great things.  ? The Eight Towns and the Twenty-one Mixed Association are both elite troops who are famous for our Beiyang, but now they are handed over to the party members in vain! What a pity for these more than 10,000 soldiers, even if they are not captured by the imperial court, I am afraid they will be captured by those  A person who talks nonsense and has no plans will be tortured to death."

    "As soon as I entered the door, I heard the palace guard sighing. I wonder what could possibly make you worried?"

    Qi Yaolin was about to say a few words of flattery when she suddenly heard someone dared to call the palace protector by his name. Just as she was about to scold him, she saw a man in military uniform walking out of the hospital, holding a gilt command knife and wearing traditional German boots.  , a man with two piles of beard, when he saw the other party dressed in this way, he immediately thought of someone. He was so frightened that he knelt down and said hello: "Qi Yaolin, the Chief Minister of Henan Province, comes to see the Imperial Envoy."

    When Yuan Shikai saw the visitor, he also laughed and pretended to bend down to salute: "Yuan Weiting has seen the imperial envoy"

    "Gongbao, Yuan Gongbao! Aren't you trying to play tricks on Wulou on purpose?" The person who came was none other than the Minister of War, the new commander of the First Army Yinchang. After helping Yuan Shikai up, he smiled and said, "Do you blame me for not coming to you for several years?"  This longevity garden?¡±

    "Haha, the imperial envoy is joking." Yuan Shikai is very familiar with Yinchang. Back then, he was training troops at a small station. Yinchang was in Tianjin, only a few dozen miles away. He also recommended the three heroes of Beiyang to his sect that day.  He also spoke up when Feng wanted to kill him, so everyone in the Yuan family regarded him as their benefactor.  However, he also knew that this Yin Wulou was really not a candidate to lead the army. He could imitate the Germans' airs, but he had a bag of straw in his stomach.  Butdon't we need such talents to support our own importance now?

    "Gongbao's place is quite lively." Yin Chang glanced at Qi Yaolin and asked, "Master Qi, what are you"

    "It's like this. The imperial court ordered Henan to supervise the handling of some grain and grass. He doesn't know about military affairs, so he came to ask me how to handle this errand." Seeing Yuan Shikai personally covering Qi Yaolin, Yinchang took a second look and then  He smiled and said: "The troops are here. Firstly, I want to see the palace guards. Secondly, I also want to ask about the military affairs. Prince Qing has been worried about the Wuchang rebellious party these days.I can¡¯t eat it either. I wonder if Kung Pao can give me some advice?  "

    If Yinchang asked, maybe Yuan Shikai would really be able to say a few words, but when he mentioned Yikuang, the corners of his mouth immediately twitched twice. If it hadn't been for that old guy, he wouldn't have fled to this remote place in the countryside, so when he mentioned  : "Your Excellency, you have asked the wrong person about this matter. Yuan has lived in seclusion for many years and has no knowledge of worldly affairs. How dare you speak nonsense."

    Yinchang smiled: "Why should you be so modest, Gongbao? You have been in charge of Beiyang for many years, and your disciples are all over the government and the public. How can you know nothing about the current situation?"

    "A lot of people have come to see me over the years, but it's a pity" Yuan Shikai deliberately tapped his leg a few times and sighed: "The foot disease has been bothering me for many years, but it is getting worse. It seems that I really should go to Jiangnan to warm myself up."  The land needs to rest for a few more years.¡±

    Yinchang knew that the events of the past few years had made him a little discouraged, but he was not good at fighting but he knew this man very well. He was by no means the kind of person who would just sit back and watch the waves rise and fall, but it was just that it was not the time to take action yet.  So he turned around and said: "In that case, I won't force Gongbao. It's just that most of the first army in my hands are old people from Beiyang. Gongbao has to take care of me and help me sing the play well."

    "Don't worry about this. Although I have been retired for many years, I can still say a few words and I will take care of Huafu and Zhiquan." Yuan Shikai thought about how he helped Yinchang out of trouble and ended up with his body in a different place.  After hesitating for a moment, he waved away Qi Yaolin and his servants who were standing by, and said solemnly: "Wulou, if you and I are not outsiders, we won't talk about the two families. You must be careful about the Wuchang matter. Party members talk in vain and have some intentions."  There is nothing to worry about if you are bold and have no plans, but Li Songqing is a rare person who can lead the army. Now that the party members worship him as their governor, they must not be underestimated. If they are not completely sure, they must start a war rashly."

    It was rare to get this person to say a word. Yinchang was so frightened that his eyebrows jumped twice. He was thinking that he could just shoot a few rounds in Wuchang and get away with it. When he said that his hands were sick and he hid, the sound of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.  , Yuan Shikai suddenly raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Who is making such a noise!"

    "Master, it's not good!" With Yinchang here, the housekeeper didn't dare to call him "sir", so he changed his name to a nondescript name and said hurriedly: "Just now, the military master who sent you the imperial envoy sent a letter, saying that he had just received news that the Liu Family Temple was rioted.  The party has taken over, and Mr. Zhang¡¯s life and death are unknown!¡±

    "What!" Yinchang was still thinking of joining Zhang Biao to ask about the situation, and then quickly counterattacked Hankou. Unexpectedly, Zhang Biao was annihilated in just two days, and even his people disappeared!

    Yuan Shikai is worthy of being a tycoon in the area. His expression remained unchanged and he asked, "But was it Li Yuanhong's hand?"

    The old housekeeper quickly shook his head: "It was done by a man named Yang Qiu. He is now the commander-in-chief of the right army of the rebel party. It is said that this man personally led the army to attack Liujiamiao. Everyone said that Mr. Zhang was probably behind  In his hands!¡±

    "Yang QiuYang Qiu!" Yuan Shikai read a few times and asked: "Is it Yang Qiu who killed the party leader on the streets of Chengdu two months ago and was canonized by the imperial court as the loyal and brave Batulu?"

    "It's this person." Yang Shiqi walked in from the outside. He was Yuan Shikai's confidant for many years and one of the few people who could freely come and go in the Yangshou Garden.  After meeting with Yinchang, he said: "The news came from the Hankou Concession. It was also said that Chen Delong and Ruicheng might also be in the hands of this person, because some people saw that the three Chu and Yu ships were already at his disposal. He now has about  There are two people, but the news coming out of Wuchang is that he seems to be at odds with the other side. He sent people to ask for ordnance but was pushed back. Currently, Hanyang Gun Factory is in his hands, and Hanyang Gun Factory is under his control.  Yeping's steel factory was also temporarily blocked by him under military control. He also took advantage of the banditry in Hankou on the night of the Wuchang incident. He deliberately indulged the bandits and then intercepted from them more than one million yuan in bank notes from major merchants. Yesterday's big business  After the defeat of Zhang Biao, the army deliberately paraded in the streets to demonstrate, and thousands of new soldiers were recruited and trained intensively! After the victory, they did not stop for a moment. It is said that a large number of people were seen setting off from Hanyang, but their whereabouts are still unknown.  "

    Yang Shiqi was very conscientious, and there were not many people who could be bothered by his verbose words, so Yuan Shikai immediately wrote down the name. But when he heard that a large number of people were dispatched last night, he stood up and suddenly patted his thigh.  : "Not good! Wu Shengguan!"

    Hearing this place name, Yinchang's expression suddenly changed. Wushengguan is the only place where the Beijing-Hankow Railway enters Hubei. After Zhang Biao is completely wiped out, the Kuomintang can take over here without any hindrance. Once the Wusheng Pass is  With Shengguan blocked, it would be a dream to quickly resolve Wuchang!  So his face changed so much that he didn't even bother to say hello, and immediately got up and went back to the train station to give orders. Yuan Shikai thought about it and was about to catch up and say a few words of concern, but was caught by Yang Shiqi: "Sir, although Wu Shengguan  It can stop them for a while, but with Hua Fu and the others, it is just a scabies disease. At this moment, the civil strife in the Hubei army is not over, and the Kuomintang is fighting for power. Li Songqing will never remind them how to fight until they can hold the power, so  Gongbao, you still have some time!"

    "I have contacted Ambassador Zhu Erdian and other ambassadors. IfIf the situation continues to deteriorate, they will definitely recommend you as Gong Bao to come out and put an end to the chaos.  "After Yang Shiqi finished speaking, he looked around and suddenly said: "Now Yang Qiu in Hubei is just a clown, Wu Luzhen in the north is the big problem!  ".
