    "I've met the commander-in-chief!" Lin Chengye, Chen Wenjun and Gao Chang immediately saluted Wang Yuze after entering the small meeting.  However, when they saw Wang Yuze's face looking a little ugly, they couldn't help but feel a little thump in their hearts.  Could it be that something serious really happened?

    After Wang Yuze returned the salute, he said coldly: "I just received news that Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncle and nephew in Chongqing have rebelled. Now, we have sent troops to suppress it. You should return to your respective troops immediately. Cooperate with the instructor to suppress the rebels.  !¡±

    "Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" Lin Chengye, Chen Wenjun and Gao Chang replied immediately.  At the same time, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the commander's face looked so ugly.  Just after taking the throne, someone dared to rebel. Isn't this a naked slap in Wang Yuze's face?  In addition, they also realized why they did not see Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncle and nephew at Wang Yuze's succession ceremony this time. Logically speaking, those two uncles and nephews should have come to attend due to their positions and qualifications.  Unexpectedly, they turned against each other.  This is simply audacious and ungrateful!

    "Okay, you go back right away! The specific orders and staff headquarters will pass them on to you at that time." Wang Yuze said.

    "Yes, Commander!" The three of them saluted Wang Yuze again and set off immediately.  They took their own guards and quickly rushed to their respective troops.  The General Staff Headquarters had sent someone to inform them that their troops had begun to march towards Chongqing under the orders of the General Staff Headquarters.  They just need to rush to Chongqing to take control of the troops.

    After making these arrangements, Wang Yuze returned to the cocktail party.  He didn't hide it.  Instead, it was announced to everyone.

    "Everyone, I just got the news. Chongqing Mayor Liu Wenlong and Second Division Commander Liu Xiang have now announced their surrender to the Qing Dynasty!" Wang Yuze said to everyone seriously.

    "What? Those two guys actually rebelled? No wonder they didn't come to attend this ceremony!"

    "Damn traitors, the commander-in-chief treated them well. As soon as the commander-in-chief left, they rebelled. They are nothing!" someone else cursed.  I hate the behavior of uncle and nephew Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang very much.

    "Everyone, the General Staff Headquarters has made arrangements for counter-insurgency. Tomorrow, you should return to your respective stations! It is necessary to maintain the stability of the army. There cannot be any trouble. This is very important!" Wang Yuze ordered.

    ¡°Yes, Marshal!¡± Everyone replied immediately.  There were even many military generals who rushed to ask Wang Yuze for a fight.  Everyone knows that the Second Division is only one division. Even if it is an elite force, it wants to compete with the huge Western Sichuan Army.  That's impossible too.  Therefore, if you participate in the counter-insurgency battle, you will undoubtedly gain huge military exploits.

    However, Wang Yuze rejected them, stating that the General Staff Headquarters had sent troops to quell the rebellion, and asked everyone not to pay too much attention.  A small Chongqing and the Second Division.  It won't make any waves.

    Chongqing, one of the most important cities in Sichuan, is not inferior to Chengdu in terms of industry, commerce and population.  However, Chengdu serves as the residence of the heads of government and military in western Sichuan.  It's just a higher political status.  Chongqing's industry and commerce are extremely developed, and it is an important channel for western Sichuan to the outside world.  Many products from western Sichuan.  They all pass through the port in Chongqing, and then pass through the Yangtze River waterway and exported to other places.  The machinery and equipment that Western Sichuan needs to import are also shipped from here to other places.  Before the railway transportation to the sea is smooth, Chongqing will still be the most important port in western Sichuan.

    "However, today's Chongqing is in a state of turmoil and chaos.  There were police and soldiers patrolling the streets.  The shops on both sides of the street have all been closed.  According to the order issued by the municipal government, the entire Chongqing has now entered a state of martial law.

    During the morning Internet session, the city government summoned Chongqing officials of all sizes, as well as reporters from newspapers, many of whom were from foreign newspapers, and issued a statement that Chongqing would break away from Western Sichuan and return to the imperial court.  This sudden announcement was like a thunder exploding over Chongqing, stunning officials and people in Chongqing.  To put it bluntly, this is Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang¡¯s uncle and nephew wanting to rebel!  Who has always had a good ending for those who rebelled?  This plunged the entire Chongqing into panic.  If martial law had not been imposed, many people in Chongqing would have left with their families.

    Marshal Wang Xiao died of illness, and the entire western Sichuan fell into mourning, and Chongqing was no exception.  However, now the mayor of Chongqing and the garrison division commander have rebelled, which is unacceptable to the people of Chongqing.  However, now that Chongqing has fallen into the control of Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncle and nephew, they have no other choice but to pray that Master Wang will arrive as soon as possible to save them from the fire and water.  Everyone knows how powerful Western Sichuan is.  Therefore, everyone also believes that Western SichuanIt will definitely be able to successfully suppress the rebellion.

    In the office of Mayor Liu Wenlong of the Chongqing Municipal Government, Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang no longer had any smiles on their faces.  Originally, they had negotiated terms with the Manchus and foreigners.  However, when they announced their separation from western Sichuan this morning, the Manchu envoys and foreigners disappeared one after another.  It was as if they had never been to Chongqing.  Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang were not fools, and they immediately realized that they had been tricked by the Manchus and foreigners.  In the eyes of the Manchus and foreigners, they were just pawns used to cause trouble for Western Sichuan.  What the final result will be, you know this without even thinking about it.

    "Those damn bastards, they dare to play tricks on us. I won't let them go!" Liu Wenlong said bitterly.  The excitement of announcing their departure from western Sichuan had disappeared, and was replaced by fear.

    "Uncle, it's too late to say anything now. Let's think about what we should do next? News from Chengdu has come. This time they mobilized instructors, as well as the 7th Division and the 8th Division stationed around Chongqing.  Division, the 11th Division and the 3rd Brigade, the total strength has reached more than 80,000 people. It is estimated that it will be difficult for us to resist their attack!" Liu Xiang said with a bitter look on his face.

    "Is there no other way? Otherwise, let's negotiate peace with Western Sichuan! If we surrender, we will no longer be officials. All we need to do is save our lives!" Liu Wenlong said.  Hearing that the Western Sichuan Army of more than 80,000 people was heading towards Chongqing, he was immediately frightened.

    "Uncle, it's too late. We have no chance to look back now. Western Sichuan will not let us go. That little bastard is probably missing a head to scare other people. Our uncle and nephew are now given  He delivered it to your door!" Liu Xiang said bitterly.  If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have been persuaded by Liu Wenlong. It's better now that I have to pay for it.

    "Then what should we do? We go to the countryside, we go abroad, and never come back. Isn't this okay?" Liu Wenlong said.

    "It depends on whether that little bastard in Chengdu gives us a chance. However, I guess he won't let go of this opportunity to kill everyone. In this case, don't blame us for being ruthless. We will contact Chengdu immediately.  Contact us and express our willingness to surrender. Then, we agree not to hold us accountable and let us go abroad. Otherwise, we will let the millions of people in Chongqing bury us with us!" Liu Xiang had a crazy look in his eyes.  .  Now, they have no way out.  Facing the attack of more than 80,000 Western Sichuan troops, including the most powerful instructors, the Second Division could not resist it no matter what.  There is really no other way now. He can only use these ordinary people in Chongqing as a shield.  In exchange for their lives.

    "Liu Xiang, this method is a bit too bloody! The people of Chongqing are all innocent!" Liu Wenlong couldn't bear it.  He has been the mayor of Chongqing for several years, and now he has to sacrifice the lives of the people under his rule in exchange for their safe departure, which makes him a little reluctant.

    "Uncle! At this time, do you still have the heart to say this? The Western Sichuan Army is coming, and it will be too late. I have ordered the second regiment stationed in Rongchang to return to Chongqing to avoid being defeated by the Western Sichuan Army one by one.  . We have no time now. If you don¡¯t want to die, just do as I say!" Liu Xiang said angrily.  If it weren't for the fact that Liu Wenlong was his uncle, he would have gotten angry.  The person who wanted to rebel at that time was Liu Wenlong, but now the person who is timid is still Liu Wenlong, which made him very angry.

    "Okay, okay! Just do as you say! I'll have people contact Western Sichuan immediately, hoping they can agree to our request." Liu Wenlong said.  He has no idea now. Liu Xiang said this, and this is the only thing he can do.  Originally, Liu Xiang was the dominant one between him and Liu Xiang.  Although he is Liu Xiang's uncle, he is three years younger than Liu Xiang.  In many major matters, Liu Xiang also takes the decision.  Unexpectedly, this was the first time he took the initiative and forced them all into a desperate situation.

    "Commander! Something bad has happened!" At this time, Liu Xiang's adjutant suddenly rushed in and said.

    "What's going on? Are you in such a panic? Are the Western Sichuan Army coming?" Liu Xiang scolded angrily.

    "Division Commander, no, the Western Sichuan Army has not attacked yet. However, we have just discovered that only a little of the ammunition in the arsenal is real ammunition, and the rest are all blank ammunition used for exercises." The adjutant said with a look on his face.  He said in horror.

    "What? How could this happen?" Liu Xiang and Liu Wenlong were both shocked.  If there is no ammunition, then all the weapons in their hands will become fire sticks.  How can they fight the Western Sichuan Army?  It¡¯s simply a matter of death!
