    It¡¯s on the shelves. Thank you to the editor and all book friends for your support!  Asking for a monthly ticket!  ¡¿

    In the longevity garden in Huanshang Village, Zhangde Prefecture, Yuan Shikai accepted the ginseng tea from his servants. He was a little tired from the negotiations with the north these days. When should he take action? What conditions should he force the court to come up with?  Destiny, so you need to use supplements to boost your energy if you are particularly nervous.  (If you want to read text novels, go to ¡®¡¯). Rapidly updated

    The aroma of ginseng tea seemed to restore a lot of energy to him. He handed the telegram he had just received to Yang Shiqi, sighed and stood up and walked to the map. While circling the Yangtze River and Han River with his fingers, he said: "Let's take a look!  Yichang, Jingshan, Zhongxiang, Tianmen at this rate, Hubei will be gone within ten days."

    Yang Shiqi took the telegram and took a quick look at it. He has been following him ever since he "returned to seclusion" in Zhangde. He can be regarded as his confidant, so it is clear that he is afraid that Hubei will become too corrupt and involve Huguang and even Jiangxi downstream.  and the Huaihe River, which ultimately led to the party's expansion in the south being detrimental to future bargaining.  Therefore, he was undecided on whether to capture Wusheng Pass first to put some pressure on the other side. He said: "The rebellious party's move is not too surprising. It is inevitable that the war will be imminent and the four wild areas will be eliminated. Defeat Zhang Biao first, and then capture Wu Shengguan Jun."  That¡¯s what I mean, when I send troops to advance northward at this moment, I must be afraid that we will break through the barrier and attack from the left and right."

    Yuan Shikai nodded in agreement, but his eyebrows did not relax: "If these writings were all written by Li Songqing, I wouldn't be surprised, but the meaning of the telegram is all Yang Qiu's doing! What does Xingcheng think of this person?"

    "He is a man who knows the military, but unfortunately his qualifications are too low. The previous events have made the party members always wary of him. If there is any slight mistake, they will definitely try their best to contain him. Although there is a gun factory in hand, the Hubei army's ordnance is huge  Some of the military commanders and Chu Wangtai in Wuchang couldn't get much out of them in a hurry. But if he really joins forces with Li Songqing, it will take some effort."

    "Then we have to connect them together. (Read the text novels here'')" Yang Shiqi was about to speak when he heard this sentence coming from behind him. At this moment, there were not many people who could enter and exit the Yuan Mansion without reporting, so he hurriedly  Turning around, he saw Yuan Keding walking in with a man in his thirties, slender and elegant in appearance. When he saw him, Yuan Shikai immediately stood up and greeted him, laughing and saying: "Brother Xizi, I've been waiting for you.  You¡¯ve been here for a long time!¡±

    The visitor was Yang Du, who had an acquaintance with Yuan Shikai. After hearing about the Wuchang riots, he immediately resigned from his idle post in the Cabinet Bureau of Statistics, packed his bags and rushed here. When he saw that Yuan Shikai seemed to be a little fatter, he smiled and said, "Mrs. Gongbao."  You're welcome, I have nothing to do in Beijing every day, but I heard that you often have fresh fish here, so I came here to chat with you for a few days."

    "Not only are there fish, but we also have good wine and good friends. I'm just afraid, Xizi, that you won't be able to live such a leisurely life."

    "Are you used to being a palace protector?"

    Both of them have delicate hearts. After looking at each other and smiling, Yuan Shikai immediately told Yuan Keding next to him: "Hurry up and ask the kitchen to prepare some. My longevity garden has not been so lively in a few days."

    Yang Du smiled and was not polite. He walked to the map and saw that the three towns were full of imprints carved by fingernails. He said, "Is the palace guard afraid that Hubei will be completely corrupted and beyond control?"

    "Xi Zi is really as careful as hair." Yuan Shikai nodded, squinted his eyes and pretended to be sad: "Yesterday Bu Wu came to see me and said that Yinchang has been unable to win Wu Sheng Pass. Seeing that Hubei is in ruins, the Queen Mother and the Emperor  I am also very anxious, I am planning to be replaced as the governor of Huguang, but my leg condition has never been good, and I don¡¯t know when I will be able to mount my horse again to kill the enemy, I am afraid I will have to wait until I leave the mountain to the south."

    These words made Yang Du's teeth sore. This person in front of him was a truly talented and strategic man. He had been training steadily since the small station. The Beiyang line was now flourishing and had its own power. It was much better than the scattered party members.  Times, it¡¯s just that after so many years, and there are no outsiders around, I still like to act coy. It¡¯s really a bad habit!  After a few sinister words, he put aside his thoughts for the time being and returned to the previous topic: "Hubei's corruption is a foregone conclusion, but I don't think it is possible to form a piece of iron and work together. (Read the text novel and get to '')"

    "Xizi, are you talking about the Right Army?"

    Yang Du nodded and said: "The party members lacked organization and failed to control the situation as soon as possible after the uprising, which made Yang Qiu's self-proclaimed Right Army Army grow rapidly. In the end, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and admit it. Can he really be accommodated?  Now Wuchang and Yangxia seem to be from the same family, but they are actually two factions. Yang Qiu has a geographical advantage, and 90% of Hubei is on the Yangxia side! The Wuchang army has many generals with abundant military weapons, and they have party members and righteousness as their backers. During this period, they frequently  The name of the Central Committee has electrified the whole country, and it has a vague posture of commanding the heroes. How can it be tolerated by a person who does not know the basics of the matter?

    Now that they have blocked Wusheng Pass one step ahead, they can calmly suppress the rebels and command the heroes from all directions. But what will happen if Wusheng Pass is broken and the imperial army invades Hubei?  Party members had traveled overseas for many years and lacked a foundation. They had no choice but to embrace LiDear Sir.  Now the people who dominate the Hubei army are all the former Zhengmu. The team is waiting for the petty officials in the army. Suddenly, they lead dozens and hundreds of soldiers to standard and coordinate thousands of people. Just coordination can make them die of worry, so what else?  war!  "

    Yang Shiqi didn't like Yang Du very much. He felt that this man had too many tricks in his stomach, but he still agreed with his words and said, "Xi Zi is right. Yang Qiu's recruits are only three or four. The new recruits are four."  Five thousand weapons are insufficient and lack training. I am afraid that the party members are still eager to use our hands to get rid of him, so as long as the left and right armies cannot coordinate for one day, Hubei will be in disarray. At this moment, the palace guards are going to release Lianghuai and Nanjing."

    "Brother Xingcheng is very resourceful, I admire you." After Yang Du finished speaking, his finger suddenly pointed at Sichuan: "Du is most worried now that Yang Qiu will go west to Sichuan!"

    ¡°Sichuan?!¡±

    Yuan Shikai's eyes, which were still dim just now, suddenly had a glimmer of light. Yang Shiqi shook his head and said, "Is Xizi worrying too much? He can't keep himself stable at the moment. How can he enter Sichuan. (Just read the text novel")  "

    "Not touching now does not mean not touching in the future. Brother Xingcheng, forget it. At this moment, he is constantly gathering veterans in the name of marching north. A battalion has arrived in Yichang. In addition, Wusheng Pass is locked, and the imperial army cannot be seen.  Hubei's squires have changed their banners one after another, and Badong is just around the corner! It's a smooth journey to Sichuan after taking Badong. If Wuchang forces him, he may not turn around and enter Sichuan."

    Yang Du's analysis made Yuan Shikai secretly interested and asked: "Listening to Xizi's words, should Huafu immediately help Yinwulou win Wusheng Pass?"

    Yang Du nodded: "Nowadays, the party members are taking advantage of Wuchang's great momentum and have repeatedly electrified the whole country in the name of Wuchang Central Committee. Over time, the whole country is afraid that they will forget who is the real hero! Du feels that Hubei is precisely the leader of Gongbao and Beiyang.  A place to establish prestige! Don't care about Wuchang or Yangxia. If Wu Shengguan is defeated, they will have no way to spread to the surrounding areas. Gong Bao, you can also use this to put pressure on Li Songqing. Only if the beating hurts, the beating will scare you! Some people will  Give up."

    Yang Shiqi said: "But Gongbao has told Hua Fu to fight slowly. Besides, once the barrier is broken, the happiest person will definitely be the north side. At that time."

    "Haha." Yang Du laughed wildly: "Brother Xingcheng is too obsessed. How can one city or one place affect the overall situation? The party members have tried several times without success. Now they finally succeeded in Wuchang and took this opportunity to control the elite E-forces in one fell swoop.  How can the army be content to fight with us in one place? They will definitely mobilize all their strength to cause trouble in various places! So there is still chaos in the south. The most important thing is Lianghuai and Nanjing. There is no news yet. Wait until there is a response to Gong Bao.  Even if he proposed to take control of the cabinet, Zaifeng would not dare not agree."

    "I only asked you to think of ways to put down the rebellion as soon as possible. What nonsense are you talking about?" Yuan Shikai narrowed his eyes and interrupted the two of them. He smiled and said: "A battle between the two armies will definitely lead to a loss of life. I don't want us Han people to fight first, so  Liu Chengen has been summoned to see Song Qing. You can go tell him later and ask him to meet Yang Qiu on the way. I am also very curious about this young hero. (Read the text novels here'')"

    "Since Bu Wudu has come to intercede, and I have been asked to serve as the governor of Huguang, I have to do nothing." After Yuan Shikai finished speaking, he picked up a pen and paper and patted his knees: "Xingcheng can help me draw up a plan.  "

    "It's better to let Du write the pen." Yang Du volunteered and started to polish the ink. Yuan Shikai remembered that he also wrote good calligraphy and style, and smiled: "Looking at my memory, you and Tan Weisan from Hunan are both masters of face and style."

    "I don't dare to compare myself with Mr. Weisan in terms of degree. He is the real style of everyone."

    Yang Du made a rare humility and concentrated on polishing the ink. When he was ready, Yuan Shikai straightened up immediately: "The war in Hubei is unfavorable, all due to poor railways and insufficient soldiers. Therefore, Wang Shizhen, the deputy commander-in-chief, was asked to assist in the military affairs of Hubei. He transferred Duan Zhigui, the candidate for Zhili Road,  Shandong Army Non-Commissioned Officers Lu Jin and Yuan Naikuan went to the front line to listen to orders. For front-line warriors and weapons, we requested to recruit 12,500 strong men from Shandong, Zhili, and Henan to form a 25th battalion of the Hubei Patrol Army for use. We quickly contacted various countries to purchase ordnance to supplement the front line."

    "Gongbao, Wu Shengguan" After the memorial was written, Yang Shiqi was just about to ask whether Wu Shengguan should be beaten or not, when he heard another rush of footsteps behind him, and Yuan Keding had already walked in.  , waving a telegram and reported: "Father, it's not good! A telegram was sent from Hunan just now. Changsha Party members Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin incited the New Army to rebel and have entered Changsha City!"

    Just now Yang Du said that the trouble in the south was not over yet. Not long after he finished speaking, news of the accident in Hunan came. Yuan Shikai and Yang Shiqi couldn't help but look at each other. The latter smiled slightly but sat down calmly: "Just now  It¡¯s starting.¡±

    Yuan Shikai took a deep breath and placed the tea cup heavily on the desk: "Hua Fu arrived in Xinyang yesterday. Go tell him and let the old guys move! We should also cheer up and don't let others laugh at us.  The army has no one?¡±

    The sound of the collision between the bottom of the cup and the table in the Yangshou Garden was particularly clear, as if a chess piece had been dropped!  This heralds the official start of the largest battle in the year of 1911.

    "Hurry up, hurry up!"

    In front of Wusheng Pass, several artillery officers kept checking the preparations in front of the position. The masters hired from the local area transported boxes of Japanese-made artillery shells from the train to the position and then released them. The loaders began to replace these murderous people.  Guys install the fuse.

    Unlike Liu Jiamiao and Jiang Tai who dug bunkers before, these Beiyang artillerymen did not prepare bunkers at all and only leveled the gun emplacements. It was not that they were lazy, but that at this distance, Krupp's seven-year-old five-barreled artillery retreat was unnecessary.  Worrying that Wu Sheng had closed the few gates, the guns would retreat.

    The muzzle of the gun began to lift little by little, reflecting an icy cold light.

    "Remember it all for me!" Beiyang's grassroots officers spoke rudely, but with a sense of overwhelming arrogance: "The imperial court has appointed you as the governor of Huguang! The land of Huguang will belong to us in Beiyang from now on! Now those rebellious parties in the south want to  Take advantage of this opportunity to drive away the Lord! Can we promise? No! This battle is for the emperor and for the Lord! Do you understand?"

    Seeing these ruffians from the Beiyang soldiers look like grown-ups, Yin Chang, who was supervising the battle, felt bad, but who would let the situation be stronger than others?  Hunan has begun to make a fuss, and he, the imperial envoy, may be gone in a few days, so he simply turns a blind eye. After all, Yuan Gongbao will not do anything to him when he is in power.  As for the Qing Dynasty, let¡¯s talk about it. I don¡¯t have that many abilities.

    "Load the shells!"

    Amidst the sharp copper whistles, a total of 36 Krupp Seven Lives Five cannons from two Beiyang artillery battalions were loaded at the same time. After ten kilograms of shells filled with Japanese Shimase gunpowder were stuffed into the barrels, the soldiers who were assigned to fight in the vanguard were  Wang Zhanyuan and Li Chun looked at each other and smiled.

    "Three rounds of proofreading! Rapid fire on the battlements in front." The accurate command showed the quality of the Beiyang artillery. As soon as the words were spoken, the first round of artillery was fired.

    The caliber of the Qishengwu can only be regarded as a light artillery in Europe, but it is already a real heavy artillery in China. Except for the fifteen-year-old field artillery that decorates Jiangfang and the Forbidden City, this caliber can already stand out among the others.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????? The group of gun flames expands, and before the picture of the uniform volley of guns disappears from the retina, the sound of explosions has already been heard from all over Wusheng Pass, and strange yellow gunpowder smoke rises from the three passes at the same time.

    The two artillery battalions of the 3rd Beiyang Mixed Confederation and the 11th Mixed Confederation were completely trained by German instructors. They demonstrated this German export-type barrel retreat field artillery to the fullest. After the three-round calibration was completed, the artillerymen made some adjustments.  It projects artillery shells 3,000 meters away at a speed of six rounds per minute, and the impact point of the artillery shells is also controlled so accurately that even several foreign observers praised it.

    Nissan's shells filled with Shimose gunpowder are also much more powerful than Hanyang's black powder shells of the same caliber. The explosion will produce a completely different yellow toxic smoke, which can provide artillery with very clear coordinates, and the flame will not go out quickly.  .

    In an instant, "drought thunder" rolled over Wusheng Pass!  Each artillery shell brought up countless rubbles in the city. In just a few minutes, the pass was covered with poisonous yellow flames and smoke. Large chunks of the city wall were penetrated by the artillery shells. The rubble and corpses continued to roll down the cliff and roared past.  The shrapnel flew away the unprepared soldiers, and the roar of the explosion drowned out the shouts of the officers in the pass. Even the sharp copper whistles dwarfed them. For the first time, the officers and soldiers of the National Defense Force understood what the real Beiyang Army was!

    On the afternoon of September 22, when the turmoil in Changsha had not yet subsided, and when South China still didn¡¯t know where the changes were, the battle for Wusheng Pass officially began!  However, Yang Qiu knew very well that the battle after being knocked down by him had just begun.
