Chapter 55 The Emperor is in Fengtai?

When gunfire was raging outside Zhengyangmen, Zhang Xun was holding an emergency meeting in his temporary headquarters, the War Department in Tieshi Hutong, to discuss the matter of sending troops to attack Fengtai. Chang Ruiqing's "swear to fight the thief to the death and rebuild the Republic of China!" The rebellion telegram was almost immediately followed by the restoration of the Qing Dynasty, and it had already been sent to Zhang Xun's hands. As soon as he saw this power, Zhang Xun's face became even more gloomy, and without saying a word, he immediately convened a meeting of the leaders of the Beiyang Army who were forced to become ministers of the Qing Dynasty. Halfway through the meeting, there was a faint crackling sound of gunfire outside.

Zhang Xun didn't hear that it was a gun at first, but thought it was a firecracker, so he squeezed out a smile and said: "This Qing Dynasty is still popular in the end, this is a firecracker outside to celebrate the emperor's reinstatement......" Speaking of this, his eyebrows tightened again, the emperor did not reset the throne at all, but let the gangsters kidnap him from the Forbidden City!

At this moment, the door of the conference room was suddenly slammed open, and I saw Zhang Xun's nephew Zhang Biting rushing in angrily, and when he saw Zhang Xun, he shouted: "Uncle! Oh no! Something big is wrong! Our seventeen battalion leaders were ambushed outside Zhengyang Gate! General Bai reported that the other side had two regiments of troops! The outside of Zhengyangmen has been beaten into a pot of porridge! ”

This frightened everyone into a little discolored, Zhang Xunhao stood up suddenly, his eyes swept in the conference room, and he was slightly relieved to see that Li Jincai, Chen Guangyuan, and Jiang Chaozong, the three generals with troops, were there. I just wanted to say something, but I didn't think about it for a while, but Wang Shizhen opened his mouth first: "Impossible!" It is impossible to have two regiments, and I know very well how many soldiers there are around the city of Beijing, the soldiers of the 12th and 13th divisions are not moved in the two large battalions of Nanyuan and Beiyuan, Li Changtai's 8th Division is still in Tianjin Machang, and Cao Kun's 3rd Division is still far away in Henan...... will be embarrassed by Shaoxuan, at most, it is Chang Ruiqing's model group. ”

As soon as he said this, even Zhang Xun nodded slightly: "Pingqing is the chief of staff of the army and the commander of the Beijing-Tianjin garrison, and he said that there would be no two regiments!" Bi Ting, you personally go to Zhengyang Gate and tell Bai Baoshan, those are at most a small force sent by Chang Ruiqing, tell him not to panic! When Zhang Biting heard what his uncle said, he also calmed down, saluted a military salute and went out to give orders.

Seeing his nephew turn to leave, Zhang Xun suddenly thought of something, and he glanced at Wu Binghu, the police chief of the Beijing Division, uneasily: "Binghu, do you think the person who kidnapped the emperor is Duan Qirui?" ”

Wu Binghu was stunned and didn't know how to answer, but Zhang Xun said to himself: "If it was really Duan Qirui's people, then the emperor should not be in Fengtai now, right?" Isn't Chang Ruiqing also Duan Qirui's person? If they kidnapped the emperor and went to Fengtai, then what should we do? Prince Chun just sold the Forbidden City to raise money, I'm afraid he won't be able to redeem the emperor, right? ”

Hearing this, several people in the room looked at each other, lowered their heads and were silent. At this moment, there was another rush of footsteps outside, and this time it was Kang Youwei who rushed in in a hurry. History has changed a little here, Kang Youwei is now the prime minister of the cabinet, not the nominal vice president of the Debi Academy.

Kang Youwei's face was pale, and he took a few breaths before he said, "Xuan Shuai, the president is running!" Liang Bolie, who had just gone to the presidential palace to ask Li Yuanhong to return to the government, came back to report, saying that the presidential palace was empty, and Li Yuanhong had already fled with the presidential seal early this morning! In addition, there was an explosion near Dongjiaomin Lane just now, which provoked the legation to protest to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, asking us to earnestly maintain order in Beijing......"

Zhang Xun's head is a little big now, the emperor is gone, the president has run away, and his pigtailed soldiers don't know who they are with outside the Zhengyang Gate, and there is a Chang Ruiqing in Fengtai who is shouting what "rebuild the Republic of China", and even foreign devils are coaxing together. The Qing Dynasty has not been restored for half a day, but there are a lot of troublesome things, and they are all great things!

However, Zhang Xun is worthy of being a big man who has been on the cusp of the storm for decades, and in a blink of an eye, he has calmed down, raised his eyebrows, and sneered twice: "I didn't expect this Duan Qirui to really want to kill the Qing Dynasty...... But I'm not a fuel-efficient lamp! Since he doesn't care about decency, don't blame me for breaking the rules! Saying that, he glanced at Li Jincai and Chen Guangyuan with cold eyes: "Are the two of you now preparing to help Duan Qirui oppose the Qing Dynasty, or are you going to help the Qing Dynasty fight Duan Qirui, a rebellious minister and thief?" ”

The two Beiyang division commanders looked at Zhang Xun's terrifying eyes, and they both felt a tingling of their scalps, and hurriedly replied in unison: "Of course it's to help the Qing Dynasty, Xuan Shuai, you can give an order, and my brother will lead the troops to help you fight!" ”

Zhang Xun laughed: "Use a knife to kill chickens!" You give an order, let the 12th Division and the 13th Division each send a regiment to surround Fengtai County! Remember, surround but not fight...... Long live the Lord may be in Fengtai City! ”

Where did the two division commanders dare to say no? is busy standing upright, patting his chest to ensure that Fengtai is surrounded by water! Zhang Xun nodded with a smile, and ordered his staff officers to send a telegram to Zhang Wensheng in Xuzhou, asking Zhang Wensheng to immediately send someone to Chang Ruiqing's parents' house to get someone! At the same time, another 20 battalions were transferred to the north by train to reinforce immediately.

With such a hectic arrangement, everyone was a little relieved, and at this time, the gunfire outside Zhengyangmen gradually subsided, and it seemed that Wang Shizhen's analysis was still very accurate.

……

And just when Beijing City was turned upside down by Chang Ruiqing's deployment. Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng in Tianjin are also wondering about all kinds of strange news from Beijing!

"Old Zhi, I just received a secret report that there was an exchange of fire on Zhengyangmenwai Street in the south of Beijing early this morning, I don't know who attacked the braided soldiers' brigade with explosives bags and machine guns, and as a result, the braided soldiers set fire to half of the big fence......" Xu Shuzheng held a stack of telegrams he had just received in his hand, and was in the study of Duan's mansion, reporting to Duan Qirui every move in Beijing.

"Who did this? Kuomintang? Or are you? Duan Qirui frowned and glanced at Xu Shuzheng.

Xu Shuzheng smiled slightly: "It's the arrangement of his subordinates, and it's Chang Ruiqing's people who do it." "It's not a presumption, when he left Beijing, he did give Chang Ruiqing an order, asking him to find a way to make some trouble for Zhang Xun, I didn't expect this Chang Ruiqing's matter to be so beautiful!

Duan Qirui sighed softly: "Half of the big fence was burned, and the loss was not small...... Xu Shuzheng snorted coldly: "Aren't they all Zhang Xun's sins?" As he spoke, he began to send a telegram to Duan Qirui again: "This is a telegram from Jiang Chaozong, the commander of the infantry army, and he reported...... "Of those Beiyang officials who stayed in Beijing City, at least eight out of ten had secret dealings with Tianjin, and Jiang Chaozong, an expert in surrender, naturally knew how to leave a way back."

Duan Qirui was silent for half of the time, so he looked up at Xu Shuzheng, who was sitting opposite him, and saw that the other party opened his mouth, stared at the beads of his eyes, and looked stunned. Duan Qirui smiled: "What's wrong?" What's going on in Beijing? ”

"The emperor, the emperor, the emperor is gone! Jiang Chaozong reported that the emperor was gone! ”

"The emperor is gone?" Duan Qirui blinked his old eyes: "What do you mean?" ”

Xu Shuzheng had already stood up abruptly at this time, and his eyes widened a little: "Jiang Chaozong said that the emperor ...... I tied up the gangsters last night! ”

"Your Majesty...... Kidnapped? Duan Qirui's eyes also bulged, with an incredulous expression: "Who did it?" It can't be you Xu Youzheng, right? ”

"It's not!" Xu Shuzheng hurriedly shook his head, then thought about it carefully, and then said with certainty: "I definitely didn't do it!" Jiang Chaozong's telegram said that the emperor's self-proclaimed 'red revolutionary' team was tied up, called the 'Red Brigade'! I don't know if it's Sun Yat-sen's person? ”

"Red revolutionaries? What does that mean? Duan Qirui looked at Xu Shuzheng fixedly, and Xu Shuzheng shook his head helplessly, red or something, it was the first time he had heard of it.
