Chapter 22 Logic

"The Qing soldiers have already moved, and the first to come out is the patrol battalion, which is estimated to have been forced out by the Japanese. The third town of Changtu was silent. The three battalion commanders and political commissar Wang Shuxun arrived, and Wen Yongyu briefly introduced the enemy's situation, "This time it is the Fengjun front road patrol battalion, the commander is Zhang Zuolin, the strength is about eight to ten patrol battalions, more than 4,000 people, and they are currently marching to Xinmintun, according to the degree of marching in the snow, the infantry can get here in about five days, and the cavalry is not sure, two days for the fast, three or four days for the slow." The meaning of the General Staff is to withdraw westward to the area around the Bahrain flag and take root. ”

"Captain, the patrol battalion is easy to fight, they came to find fault on such a snowy day, and it is impossible to deal with it twice." As soon as he heard that the patrol battalion was to be withdrawn, and then he heard that he was going to withdraw to the Bahrain flag, he was very unhappy to occupy the Central Plains.

"These patrol battalions used to be horse bandits, and they were not easy to fight." Wen Yongyu said. Although they have not fought each other, the intelligence of the military intelligence is still relatively thorough, "and they came in such a hurry, not like they used to passively avoid war." ”

"Let's take refuge to the Kulun Banner first, and see if this Qing army is looking for the bandits or us. If you look for us, it's never too late. "It's snowing heavily, it's really not a good time to fight, Wang Xiaozhen likes a weather that is more suitable for field warfare, and then fights hard and kills a few patrol battalions like last time.

"There's no news from the left patrol battalion in Jinzhou?" Yu Peiming, the commander of the third battalion, asked, he has always been very silent, usually the first two battalion commanders finished speaking, but the questions were asked at the key point. Feng Linge on the left also has six or seven battalions, which are stationed in the Chaoyang area of Jinzhou.

"There are fast horses out of the city on the Shengjing side, but I can't tell whether they went to the capital to report that the Japanese were killed, or whether they wanted Feng Linge to send troops. If he also came to join in the fun, then Kulunqi wouldn't be able to stay for long. "Feng Linge is the leader of the bandits in Liaoxi, and now he has recruited An, which can be regarded as whitewashing. Most of his soldiers were Zhao'an's beards. It's harder to deal with than the average person.

"Then retreat to the Naiman Banner. At that time, even if Feng Linge comes from Chaoyang, he will not be able to cut off our back road. Seeing that everyone was pondering, Wen Yongyu decided on a place to retreat, he actually wanted to get out of the way and let Zhang Zuolin go to trouble the Mongols.

The march in the snow was very difficult, but the guerrillas were always mobile, and there were enough mules and horses. And the daily training has this item, it is bearable, but Zhang Zuolin, who is rushing to Zhangwu, is not so comfortable, although Xinmintun is his old nest, where he can replenish grain and grass, but the section from Sujiatun to Xinmintun is still extremely difficult. Especially when the wind and snow suddenly became bigger halfway through, it only froze the soldiers to death. finally arrived at Xinmintun, and when he entered the camp at night, Zhang Jinghui came to report, "Yuting, some brothers can't stand this hardship and run away at night." ”

"Spicy. Which battalion? Whose people? Zhang Zuolin was also frozen enough. Drinking wine, he was trying to rest for a good night, and then he would hurry tomorrow, but he didn't want to have a deserter for a day, which really made him angry.

"It's the two battalions that were transferred from the middle lane, and it's estimated that they're comfortable in the city, and they can't stand it when they freeze in the snow." Zhang Jinghui picked up the two pots on the table and took a sip as he spoke, and said: "The two pots are still delicious enough, and I don't know how to make them." It's cold. Brothers, bring more. ”

"This is all done by the old Zhang family, there is a shop in Xinmintun, and the big guy can take care of it." The old Zhang family that Zhang Zuolin said was actually Zhang Rong's family, since the Russo-Japanese War, his family was a coal mine and a pot, and he made a lot of money. However, although Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Rong are colleagues, they are not good friends. He could see that this Zhang Rong was not the same kind of person as himself, and he rarely worshipped others.

"Wine is a small thing. What kind of charter does this bandit have? You have to take care of this rain pavilion. Zhangwu passed, and the Fuxing Army heard that it was there. Baiyin Dalai is said to be over there. "Zhang Jinghui is not in a hurry about deserters, what he is anxious about is that Zhangwu is a bandit nest, although he has more than 4,000 people, but the labor expedition will still suffer a loss.

Zhang Jinghui's worry was not a big deal on Zhang Zuolin's side, he picked up the bottle at the head of the second pot and took a sip, only drank all the wine in it, and then burped: "What is there to worry about, this time the troops are not going to fight them, when they get to the place, just send someone over to make it clear." This time, it was the bandits who annoyed the Japanese, and it was Tauk Taohu who wanted to suppress him, and he had nothing to do with the others. On such a cold day, beating around and drinking the northwest wind? ”

"But what if they think we're encircling them?" is different from Zhang Zuolin's big grinning thoughts, Zhang Jinghui is a fine person, but fine people also have the characteristics of fine people, that is, they often see big with small, and small is big.

"There are a lot of us, as long as the meaning is clear, then they will understand." Zhang Zuolin didn't seem to care about the Fuxing Army and Baiyin Dalai, and as he spoke, he took out a bottle of Erguotou and drank wildly.

"If only that were the case." Zhang Jinghui believed in Zhang Zuolin in all matters, but he thought of another thing, "Yuting, what do you mean when you say that An Shuai transferred two patrol battalions to us?" If these eight lambs tell us about our fornication with the revival army......"

"He dares!" The second pot head bottle slammed on the table with a 'snap', Zhang Zuolin wiped the wine stains on his mouth with his sleeve, and said fiercely: "If these two kings and eight lambs don't know each other, let people do them, and it will save trouble." ”

Zhang Zuolin is very clear about the goal of this time to suppress bandits, and sending troops so quickly is nothing more than to give the Japanese a step down, and also give the imperial court an excuse to deal with the Japanese. As long as he leads the people and the Revival Society to fight hard with Bai Yinda, he will never do it.

He didn't want to work hard with others, and others didn't work hard with him, and when he arrived in Zhangwu, he had heard that the revival army was going west, he had no worries at this time, and went straight to the north to Tongliao, Tao Ke Taohu was near Erlong Suokou (now Tongliao), I heard that the Qing soldiers were attacking and suppressing, and they were busy retreating to Liquan County (now Tuquan County) and Baiyin Da Cheng together, they fought a big battle with the Qing army in Delong Pot Shop, with the guns bought from the Fuxing Society, Tao Ke Taohu killed a large number of Qing soldiers and retreated.

Originally, according to history, Tauk Tau Hu and Bai Yin Da Lai should have run all the way to the north of Sauron Mountain, but when determining the direction of the march, under the persuasion of Deliger, Tao Ke Tau Hu actually wanted to go west and south to find the revival army. The descendants of Temujin should not defect to the Han Chinese. So saying, he went north.

"Father......" Deliger watched Bai Yin Dalai lead people to the north, and felt ashamed of his own mentions.

"Nope. Let him go. Tao Ke Tao Hu looked at the full carriages, these were all captured by Bai Yin Da Lai, and when they began to meet, Tao Ke Tao Hu felt that Bai Yin Da Yu was extremely displeased, thinking that it was the disaster he had brought to him, if it weren't for the two hundred guns that Fuxing would sell. I'm afraid that when Delong is burning the pot, he won't be able to escape.

Looking at Bai Yin Da Lai, who was gradually moving away, Tao Ke Taohu's eyes were deep, and after a while, he said firmly: "Let's go south." ”

"To the south?" Deliger was surprised, and Yashi, a subordinate next to him, was also surprised: "Mongolian men shouldn't go to the Han people." ”

"Hmph. Without the guns of the Han people, we can beat the Qing soldiers, and without the bullets of the Han people, we can escape here. Tauktahu looked at Deliger and Yash. "I've heard people say before that the Fuxing Army said that the Manchus are slaves of foreigners, and we are slaves of the Manchus, whether they are Mongols or Han Chinese, we must unite together to fight the Manchus; Deliger also said that the cultural leaders of the Renaissance Army do not approve of the reclamation of Mongolian land. The Han people have the land of the Han people, and the Mongols have the pastures of the Mongols. Why did we rebel? It was the Manchus who colluded with the princes to sell the grassland to the Han Chinese. Since the Baath Army does not want our steppe, then we and them can become brothers, but never enemies. Bai Yinda dislikes us for bringing disaster to him, and he is not happy that we follow him, but the revival army is originally a thief, and if we don't provoke the Qing soldiers, the Qing soldiers will also look for them. If we go. They don't welcome us, so we'll go west to Bahrain. ”

If Yang Rui listened to the effect of the revival society's propaganda so well, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, everyone bowed their heads when Tauk Tau Hu said this, but after a while, Deliger said, "Then how can we find them?" ”

"If you go south, you can find it, and if you can't find it, go west." Tauktau said calmly. Then he turned his horse's head and led the way west, and he walked this way. The people behind him also hurriedly followed.

The Wenling in Tauktaohu's mouth did not know that his earlier half-truths and half-truths had taken such a big effect, and only attracted the Mongols to his side, and if he knew it, he would have to break out in a cold sweat. In fact, the people in western Liaoning are complicated, and there are Manchus, Han people, Mongolian people, and Hui people. The propaganda of the Revival Society was only aimed at the corruption and humiliation of the Manchu elites, rather than completely targeting the Manchus like the Guannai. However, this is only propaganda, in order to have a good reputation among the people and facilitate the movement of troops in various places, and the clear national policy of the Revival Association has not yet come out.

"It's better for the other races to assimilate." In Yang Rui's apartment in the French Concession in Shanghai, Zhang Taiyan, the great political officer, fanned his fan and said: "The so-called consumption of its strength, teaching its young, changing its customs, absurdizing its books, changing its words, and annihilating its history, in this way, after a hundred years, there will only be Han people, no Manchus, Mongolians, and Hui people." It's just that religion is not easy to do, the Hui people have Islam, the Manchus have shamans, the Tibetans and Mongolians all have Buddhism, and with them, it is still very difficult to assimilate them all. ”

Zhang Taiyan said that Yang Rui was in a cold sweat, thinking about those who learned English, spent Christmas, and wore Western clothes in later generations, isn't this the assimilation strategy of foreigners, but it is not complete, after all, the progress of science and technology will still change the nature of life. As soon as he was distracted like this, Zhang Taiyan didn't hear the last few words, so he had to say blindly: "Uncle Mei, what do the Han people teach?" ”

"Han Chinese are not religious." Zhang Taiyan said firmly. "During the Shang Dynasty, they still believed in ghosts and gods, but after the Zhou Dynasty, they only believed in the ritual system, because the Han people did not believe in religion from then on, but only believed in their ancestors. But this belief in the ancestors is just for show. If you respect your ancestors, your descendants will respect yourself, so since ancient times, filial piety has come first. ”

Zhang Taiyan was obsessed with the matter of the turn of Shang and Zhou, but Yang Rui was no longer as interested in it as before. "Cangqiao really knows etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know honor and disgrace", not "Cangqiao really knows etiquette, and you know honor and disgrace when you have enough food and clothing". The meaning of 'and' and 'then' is different, 'while' is a juxtaposition relationship, and 'then' is a progressive relationship. The original sentence uses 'then', which comes from Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period, and 'and' was changed by Sima Qian of Han Confucianism according to the meaning of Confucianism.

Although "then" and "and" are a bit chewy, they made Yang Rui deny it, or it can be said that it delayed the cultural revolution of the Fuxing Society, because only when the people have food, drink, food and clothing, can they understand etiquette and humiliation. This is the same as Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory in later generations, normal people can only meet the most basic requirements before they can meet the higher-level requirements, and it is rare to ignore eating and drinking just to realize self-worth. Of course, such people do not mean that there are none, but there are very few. The current 'madness' of the Revival Society is to encourage its members to get rid of the present for the sake of their ideals and finally realize their own values. It can be said that 'madness' is not only for the success of the revolution. It is also for the sake of accumulating wealth quickly after the founding of the country, and only by being rich can we rebuild the glory of the past.

Yang Rui thought about this, Zhang Taiyan said other things, and when Yang Rui listened again, he happened to talk about the national characterization. “…… In the future, as long as it is a Han thing, it will be replaced by a country, such as Sinology, it will be called Guoxue, Hanfu will be called Guofu, and Chinese will be called Chinese....... In this way, people of other races have to learn, they have to wear, they have to say. Otherwise, you come to a Chinese study, they come to a Tibetan study, you come to a Hanfu, he comes to a Mengfu, you come to a Chinese, and he comes to a Huiyu. In this way, there is no superiority. If such a national character is added, it means that there is a distinction between superior and inferior. Mongolians can learn Mongolian, but as Chinese, they must learn Chinese. ”

Zhang Taiyan said this, but Yang Rui remembered that he had made the national quintessence journal before, and it turned out that this was what it meant not to call Hancui to be called the quintessence of the country, so he smiled: "Okay! In the future, the strategy of assimilation is still to write a lot of paintings by Uncle Mei, especially on the Mongolian side. ”

"Mongolia shouldn't be looking for me. And it's good to find Xiao Xu, not that he ......" Zhang Taiyan stopped when he said this.

Yang Rui also thought deeply when he heard this, this is actually saying that Wang Xiaoxu is a Mongolian, and it seems that he is talking about his grandfather. When my great-grandfather traveled through Mongolia to take up his post, my grandmother was in labor, so I had to find a Mongolian doctor to deliver the baby. Who expected that night a herdsman's wife was also going to give birth, so two strange women lay in a yurt and gave birth to a child, both were mother and son safe, both were boys, seeing the mother and son safe his grandfather and grandmother was asleep, but when he woke up, he found that his child was taken away by the Mongolian herdsman, at this time the sky was already bright, the grassland was full of herdsmen, and at night did not pay attention to the appearance of the Mongolian herdsman, and finally could only take the herdsman's child back as his own child.

Wang Xiaoxu may be a Mongolian Wang Xiaoxu said it himself, but he is not sure, because it is only his mother who has such a statement, and his father has not explained. However, Zhang Taiyan completely believes that this is true, because the appearance is very similar. Yang Rui also believes it, because the personalities are very similar. However, this matter is always someone's **, and it is not good for the two to continue to talk, but they discussed some national assimilation strategies, and then the policy was determined, and then it was given to the General Staff.

Because Zhang Zuolin went north directly from Zhangwu, Wen Yongyu has been waiting for Xiang Xiang's cavalry regiment in Naiman Banner, but the cavalry regiment did not come, but the Mongols came. Tao Ke Taohu rebelled for the grassland, the grassland is everyone's rice bowl, and at the same time, his troops are extremely strict, so the people everywhere they go are welcome, and it is very simple to inquire about a Han army in the grassland, so Tao Ke Taohu came like this.

"Are you here to buy a gun again?" Wen Yongyu listened to the news that Tao Ketao Hu asked to see, and said this in a daze.

Wang Shuxun, the political commissar next to him, said: "I'm afraid that the Qing soldiers have been brought in." We're going to have to withdraw again. Now all the grasslands know that the Qing soldiers are chasing Taoke Taohu, saying that they will give gold according to their flesh and silver according to their bones. He had nowhere to hide, so he came here. Lao Wen, your popularity is really good. ”

Seeing that the political commissar joked, Wen Yongyu didn't answer, but said: "Then I have to avoid it first, you came forward to beat these people." As soon as he finished speaking, the guards outside reported to the skipping class Tao Hu and asked to see him.

Wang Shuxun saw that he had no objection, if the Mongols really came to take refuge, it was still a good fight, now not only Zhang Zuolin is chasing and suppressing Taoke Taohu, but Feng Linge, the commander of the left road, and Wu Junsheng, the commander of the back road, are already sending troops to strangle, only the third town has not moved, probably thinking that the suppression of bandits is a matter of the patrol team, and the regular army only deals with the revival army.

"Tao Ke Tao Hu asks to see Wen Ling." A Mongolian man of about forty years old, surrounded by a bunch of cavalry, dismounted from a distance, and when he saw Wang Shuxun who came out of the big tent of the Chinese army, he stroked his chest and bowed.

"Wen Ling was not there for a while. Excuse me... What's the matter? Wang Shuxun smiled all over his face, looking at the Mongolian in front of him who was worth the same price as gold and silver, and smiled.

Wen Ling said that the Han people have the land of the Han people, and the Mongolians have the grasslands of the Mongolians, and also said that the Manchus are the slaves of the foreigners, and we are all slaves of the Manchus. Tauktahu came to take refuge, and he also came to rebel with Wen Ling. "Maybe I feel that only by telling the truth can I gain trust, or maybe the Qing soldiers are chasing too closely. Tauktahu put it very bluntly.

The new policy from Shanghai only arrived a few days ago, and it can be regarded as opening up the mouth of accepting Mongolians on a large scale, but such four or five hundred people came together to defect, which was still beyond Wang Shuxun's expectations, and he heard it for a long time before he said: "Please also ask Brother Tao to rest first, I will wait for a discussion before making a decision?" ”

He was followed by a large string of tails, and if Wang Shuxun heard that he had joined the gang, he would agree with his mouth. At this time, when he heard that Wang Shuxun said that he wanted to discuss, he promised loudly and rested under the arrangement of Adjutant Wen Yongyu. As soon as Tao Ke Taohu left, Wen Yongyu came out. sighed, "Is this a good or bad fucking thing?" ”

"If you lose your horse, you don't know what a blessing or a curse. Let's send a telegram to the above, we can't decide. Wang Shuxun shook his head and said, he had long guessed that the bandits who were dispersed one day would definitely come to defect, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

The Liaoning West guerrillas sent a telegram to the General Staff, which discussed the results and then sent the results of the discussion to Shanghai. After all, now the Taoketaohu tribe is the target of public criticism, and accepting it is not beneficial to the Liaoxi guerrillas themselves, but it has attracted a large number of Qing troops to encircle and suppress. However, when the telegram arrived in Shanghai, Yang Rui's opinion was different, the news from Beijing was that after the snow melted, the third town and the patrol battalion were going to enter and suppress the western Liaoning guerrillas on a large scale, so it was not bad to be surrounded and suppressed by the Qing army earlier, at least now it is only a patrol battalion, not a patrol battalion co-located with the third town. Again. Whether Mongolia was deceived by Russia in the future, whether it was independent or not, it was always good to have some Mongolian Belt and Road Party in hand, and the telegram back meant the opposite of the General Staff.

After the staff received the telegram, because Yang Rui did not list the reasons in the telegram, they thought that Yang Rui's judgment was wrong, and Pei Shoutong and Xu Jingxi jointly called back to oppose it. Seeing this opposition, Yang Rui couldn't laugh or cry. I had to elaborate on the news from Beijing before I pressed the resolution.

Although the telegram was swift, it took a lot of time to go back and forth, only when it was dark. Wen Yongyu just received a telegram from the General Staff here, since the tone on it was set, then Wen Yongyu could come forward, so he led people out from the back of the barracks, rode around and turned back to the main gate, pretending to be out and returning. As soon as he entered the camp, Tao Ke Tao Hu came to ask for a meeting again, this time he did not hide it, and directly let Tao Ke Tao Hu and a few people into the big tent.

After the ceremony, Tao Ke Taohu sent a tray of gold and silver to Rang Deliger, but Wen Yongyu sent someone to stop him and said, "Is Tao Ke Taohu bringing friendship, or gold and silver?" ”

Tao Ke Tao Hu was stunned when he heard this, he had not seen Han people who didn't want gold, so he said: "Tao Ke Tao Hu brought naturally friendship, these gold and silver are just the property of the Manchu people and the Mongol princes, I just want to thank you for the kindness of buying a gun last time." ”

Seeing that the Mongols only wanted to buy a road with gold and silver, Wen Yongyu feigned anger and said: "Those who bring gold and silver are merchants, and those who bring friendship are brothers." If Tauktahu still wants to hold gold and silver, then please go back. "Then I'm going to send off the guests.

Seeing that the Han people are not greedy for immediate profits, but also to send off guests, this made Tao Ke Taohu a little panicked, he said that he was talking about joining the gang to rebel, but in his heart he still had the calculation of avoiding trouble, so he quickly took out the gold and silver from Deliger, and then said: "Wen Ling said that the Han people have the land of the Han people, and the Mongolians have the Mongolian grassland, I used to hear the Fuxing Army say that the Manchus are the slaves of the foreigners, and we are the slaves of the Manchus. I also want to work with Wenling to overthrow the court of this foreign slave. ”

After Tao Ketaohu finished speaking, he looked up at Wen Yongyu, hoping that he would agree to his request, and Wen Yongyu also looked at him, just wanting to see this Mongolian Jin Liang. The two looked at each other for a long time, and only after Tao Ketaohu avoided his gaze did he say: "Those who are brothers will always be brothers, and those who are passers-by are ultimately passers-by." Brother Tauk, your men are still stationed behind us. If the Qing soldiers come, then let them have no return. ”

Wen Yongyu's words were heard very clearly by Tao Hu, and after hearing the words, he bowed down. As soon as he left, the battalion commanders standing on both sides of Wen Yongyu were puzzled.

"Why don't you let him in?" Wang Xiaozhen asked. "He's obviously taken refuge this time."

"Didn't you come to take refuge when you joined the meeting?" The Central Plains is very familiar with the psychology of horse bandits, and strange gangs are always wary of each other when they meet, and only after drinking and killing people together can they be regarded as friends. However, this kind of friendship also depends on people, some people are selfish in their bones, and it is difficult to come together; There are also some people who are just wary of strangers, and after they are familiar, they are exchanging lives for lives, which is righteousness. If you can't do this, or you can't do it, then you shouldn't come out. And this Tao Ke Tao Hu will soon be able to have so many people to follow, it must be the one who puts righteousness first. Captain Wen doesn't want gold and silver, unlike the businessman, it is only beneficial to the future alliance, even if Tao Ketaohu leaves after this battle, the reputation spreads, and the revival army can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in Mongolia, this is not a loss, this is the logic of the rivers and lakes.
