"Brother Yang, what the hell is going on? ()！ ”

Bingwen is young in the end, although he agrees with the party in his heart, but since he joined the army, Yang Qiu has treated him like a younger brother, and he has the grace of saving his life when he was in Guang'an, so he has no idea at all, and immediately rushed to the front after seeing the master leave.

Looking at Bingwen, who was short of breath and had red light in his eyes, Yang Qiu didn't know where to start for a while.

"Brother, speak slowly, I don't believe that you killed the leader of the party, there must be something strange at this time." Xiao Anguo also ran over with everyone, and Hulala surrounded him three layers inside and three layers outside.

Yang Qiu also has a hard time, he doesn't deny killing Wang Tianjie, but he didn't expect that guy to have a list ()! Seeing that everyone was staring at him, he sighed deeply: "That's right, I killed Wang Tianjie." ”

"What!" Bingwen jumped up all of a sudden, if he hadn't thought about Yang Qiu's goodness, he would probably have pulled out his gun a long time ago.

Bingwen's blood-red eyes made Yang Qiu's heart chuckle, and he hurriedly said what happened today, but he concealed the exchange of silver and the meeting of Song Jiaoren, after all, he seemed to be comrades-in-arms, but people's hearts were separated from their stomachs, and it was a trivial matter for the silver to be exposed, if the news of Song Jiaoren's secret arrival in Chengdu spread, it would really be fried.

Hearing that Yang Qiu's tone was calm and not like a lie, Xiao Anguo, Ma Kui and the others were relieved, not to mention that Wang Tianjie also deserved to die, he actually sneaked up on someone unprepared, and he deserved to be killed by the wrong hand, only Bingwen didn't speak, biting his lip and not knowing what he was thinking.

Yang Qiu didn't continue to explain, he knew that the more he explained this matter, the more troublesome it became, not to mention that the result of the leakage of the alliance list after Wang Tianjie's death was indeed related to him, and the gold bar that Governor Chuan rewarded again was also seen by many people, so he couldn't take off the hat of "Qing court lackey and big hero" for the time being.

"Let's go, go back to Wuchang."

Xiao Anguo didn't want to say more, he did cause too much trouble this trip, so the best way was to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, as long as he returned to his own place, at least Yang Qiu could be safer.

The convoy soon returned along the way it came, and although Xiao Anguo arranged Yang Qiu in a strict carriage, he still didn't dare to be careless, and specially put the captured Haqikes on the front cart, and his eyes widened along the way.

Hearing the increasingly dense gunfire in the city through the curtain, Yang Qiu sighed secretly, and held the data machine in his personal collection with his right hand.

Did you really change history? Will the road protection movement change because of itself? Without Sichuan's containment, will Wuchang Shouyi still appear? Do you really want to go overseas to become a rich man?

Hanjiang Yi, three towns, nine provinces, mountains and mountains, overflowing, business convergence ().

In the late Qing Dynasty, almost everyone in the land of Hubei knew that since the Han River was diverted from the three towns of Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang during the Ming Dynasty, this thoroughfare of nine provinces has become a place where merchants gather by virtue of its geographical advantages.

After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Li Hongzhang and other people of insight found that the central empire that had closed off the country had fallen too far behind, and launched a mighty Westernization movement, and foreign Western ideas and traditional culture collided and clashed, which aggravated social contradictions, but also began to benefit the country, the most important of which was the rise of capital.

New industries began to spring up all over the north and south of the river, and the capital power that had been suppressed for thousands of years made a leap, in the early days of the First Sino-Japanese War, the annual tax of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was only 80 million taels, and before Xinhai, the annual tax of the state had reached 200 million.

Among them, the first batch of Wuchang three towns as a treaty port is developing rapidly, relying on geographical advantages, the annual trade volume of more than 100 million can be on a par with Shanghai, the annual tax has reached 6 million, the United States "Harp" magazine is publicly called the three towns as the Oriental Chicago.

In the early morning, Wuchang is already bustling, and all kinds of signboards along the streets are seductive, ranging from conservative texts to scantily clad portraits of Western beauties. Horse-drawn carriages shuttle, pedestrians followed, beggars were in groups, and from time to time you could see blond foreigners, even Japanese ronins wearing clogs with katana at their waists, and the shouts of porters on the docks were one after another.

Across the river, the sky over Hankou and Hanyang on the opposite side is even more black smoke, especially Hanyang has become a representative of the industrial revolution of the Qing Dynasty because of the number one ironworks and gun factories that can be ranked in the entire Far East.

The entire three towns of the Han River are filled with a wonderful vitality.

It's just that.

Located in the Admiral's Yamen by the river, the short and fat Li Yuanhong looked out the window, and the bustling and chaotic scene not only did not make him happy, but sighed softly ().

Zhang Biao, the governor of Hubei in civilian clothes and the commander of the new army, had just come out of the inner hall when he heard Li Yuanhong sighing against the window, and immediately joked: "I said Song Qing (Li Yuanhong), you and I have known each other for many years, and you came to my house so early in the morning to sigh, it seems that it is suspected of touching my moldy head." ”

Also belongs to Zhang Zhidong, Li Yuanhong did not dare to despise Zhang Biao, this person not only has a good fist and feet, but also is proficient in the art of war, not to mention that Zhang Zhidong also has a life-saving grace, and he is also a well-known figure among the feudal officials, so he hurriedly said hello.

"You and I don't need to be polite." After letting people look at the seats, Zhang Biao asked, "Why did Song Qing sigh just now?" ”

"It's not the other side of the story." Li Yuanhong pointed to the other side of the river, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Last night, there was news from the Governor's Mansion that Lord Rui Chengrui had withheld the operating silver of this autumn's gun factory, and also wrote to the imperial court to close some branch factories again. ”

"Wolf ambition!" Hearing this, Zhang Biao slapped his thigh and said fiercely: "Since this Ruicheng sat in the position of governor of Huguang, he has been beating the idea of my new army and the gun factory again, hmph, as long as the old man is in one day, he must not be complacent." ”

Li Yuanhong also sighed slightly, and said: "Now the party is making trouble everywhere, before Huanghuagang was just a warning, Sichuan is a big trouble, if Sichuan is unstable, the imperial court will definitely transfer our army into Sichuan, and at that time, I am afraid that the three towns will be in the hands of the governor, my lord, you have to get an idea." ”

Zhang Biao also has a headache, the most convincing thing in his life is Zhang Zhidong, in his opinion, the gun factory and the new army are the relics of Lord Zhang, how can he allow others to interfere and make it filthy, but there are some problems he can't solve, that is, if you want to maintain the operation of the new army and the gun factory, the cost is really huge.

Zhang Zhidong, who previously served as the governor of Huguang, once said: "The financial resources of a province can never be used for the urgent needs of the overall situation, and it seems that the military salary cannot be used exclusively in Hubei Province." Two years ago, the five factories of guns and racks were closed, so that the gun factory stopped making cannons and could only produce Hanyang-made and a few other firearms.

What's more, it is also very clear that the troubled times are not far away, as long as he can control the new army and the gun factory, then no matter who is in power in the future, he will not be able to move him, but the problem is that he is only a commander and can't manage money and food, so he has been suppressed by Ruicheng with this matter ().

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, don't worry about it, but there is any news about sending guns into Sichuan?" Li Yuanhong waved his hand and did not want to worry about the matter of the gun factory, but was more worried about Sichuan.

"Xiao Anguo is a steady person, Song Qing can rest assured, yes." Just when the two were about to discuss the affairs of Sichuan, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind them, and they turned their heads to see that Rui Cheng, the governor of Huguang and Rui Fang, the superintendent of the Hanchuan Railway, who had just mentioned, came together, which made both of them frown, you must know that it is no secret that they are competing with each other for the Hanchuan Railway, how can they come together? And looking at the face, it seems that there is something very joyful?

The two of them chuckled in their hearts at the same time, could it be that the imperial court really wanted to remove its own admiral and hand over the new army to this guy?

"Oh, Song Qing is also here."

"Two adults, this is." Zhang Biao and Li Yuanhong hurriedly stood up and said hello.

"Haha." Rui Cheng is a feudal official, and after he sat down first, he took out a commendation telegram from his sleeve and said happily: "Today we are here to congratulate Lord Zhang." ”

"Congratulations?" Zhang Biao glanced at Li Yuanhong, who was also confused next to him, and asked, "I don't know what my lord means by this?" Zhang hasn't even gone out of the door these days, where does the joy come from? ”

"Lord Zhang didn't go out, but the army was thousands of miles away, and in the battalion of the commander, he sent elite soldiers to eradicate the chaotic party in Sichuan in one fell swoop!" After Rui Fang finished speaking, he asked Rui Cheng again: "Lord Governor, what you said below is right. ”

"Hehe, Lord Rui and Bendu can be regarded as thinking of going together on this matter."

The questions and answers of the two made Zhang Biao even more confused, and he hurriedly said: "Lord Governor, don't go around in circles with me, just say it." ”

Rui Cheng seemed to be in a good mood, and asked with a smile: "Huchen (Zhang Biaozi), let me ask you, can Yang Qiu recognize him?" ”

"Yang Qiu?" Zhang Biao looked at Li Yuanhong next to him, who frowned and thought for a while and then reminded: "My lord, there is a man named Yang Qiu under the seat of Xiao Anguo in the baggage camp, who is from Hubei, his parents died when he was young, and his second uncle was in Shanghai, I heard that he has been studying in the French Concession, and he only joined our army in May to serve (). ”

"You can't go wrong."

After hearing this, Rui Cheng slapped his thigh, handed the telegram to Zhang Biao and said: "Huchen has a good eye, this Yang Qiu is worthy of being a tiger man, he captured the revolutionary party bandits alone in Guang'an, captured the bandit leader and more than 60 subordinates, and also captured a machine gun and more than 100 rifles. After arriving in Chengdu, he killed the rebel leader of the rebel party on the street, and got a list, and now the governor of Sichuan Zhao has arrested people according to the list, and no less than 300 have been captured in five days, and more than 100 have been killed! Most of the chaotic parties in Sichuan have been arrested and brought to justice! ”

"What!"

Not to mention the fiery Zhang Biao, even the deep Li Yuanhong couldn't believe it, and flipped through the telegram, as if he was looking for a few big words that were purely a joke.

"Hehe, two adults, don't look at it." Rui Fang also smiled next to him: "Now this matter has spread all over the country, and the newspapers in Shanghai and Guangzhou have been published, all saying that the two adults have a good way to govern the army, so that they can produce such a strong warrior, and the Sichuan Chaos Party is no longer a climate, and the imperial court has also issued an edict after hearing the news, and it is impossible to say that the excerpt to reward the two adults and Yang Qiu will arrive in a while." ”

"Isn't this a great event?!"

"Happy event, happy event." Zhang Biao and Li Yuanhong looked at each other and nodded again and again, this is indeed an unexpected "happy event", but the problem is that the Hubei New Army will definitely be targeted by the party, and now that the wind and rain are all over the place, wouldn't the three towns of the Hanjiang River be peaceful if it is so noisy?

Before the two of them came out of the shock, Rui Cheng had already picked up the teacup and blew it, and suddenly interjected from the corner of his eyes: "Huchen, the party has been making trouble everywhere recently, and the governor is often not very peaceful on the street, plus the governor is in a small number of patrol camp leaders, I don't know if the two of you are willing to temporarily transfer Yang Qiu to me to solve the urgent need?" ”

"Transfer Yang Qiu? ()！ Zhang Biao couldn't hide it, his face changed immediately, not to mention that Yang Qiu had already made a great contribution at the moment, and his future future was limitless, taking this opportunity to maybe he could get the coveted Hanyang Gun Factory, and he could also build another vacant infantry town, not to mention that even if there were no such things, he Huguang Governor should not directly insert his hand into the new army, although the governor did nominally lead the military government, but if he was allowed to interfere in everything, what else would he do for himself as a commander? Where do you put your face?!

Li Yuanhong was also dissatisfied in his abdomen, because Ruicheng was a drunkard and didn't mean to drink.

Robbing people is fake, I want to take this opportunity to stand up in front of Zhang Biao, I want to take the opportunity to promote Yang Qiu to set an example, tell others who is the real commander, and completely break the embarrassment that has been at a disadvantage on the army issue for many years.

But all of a sudden, he couldn't find any other way, not to mention that Rui Cheng opened a pipe belt, he can't be lower than this level, right?! Thinking of this, I was also anxious, and after a while, I glanced at Zhang Biao, who was displeased, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Xiaguan thank you for your kindness for Yang Qiu, but Lord Zhang has promised to transfer Yang Qiu to my 42nd standard system, and this matter has been announced to the army, if you regret it again, I am afraid it will not be good." ”

"42 standards!"

At this time, Rui Cheng's face changed a little.

As the governor of Huguang, he nominally controlled the military and political power of the two provinces, but now everyone knows who the new army is, so he has been looking for opportunities to meddle in the affairs of the new army and want to take back the military power, but he didn't expect that in order to prevent himself from meddling in the new army, Zhang Biao and Li Yuanhong would come up with such a big blood, their faces suddenly gloomy, and the corners of their mouths twitched twice and said with a dry smile: "Then the governor will first congratulate Huchen on getting a tiger general." After speaking, he waved his sleeves and left with a black face without even saying hello.

Seeing Rui Cheng leaving, Zhang Biao's eyes were burning, and his ruthless color was unobstructed
