1221 100,000 enemy troops

Lin Yuan said: "The vast number of compatriots south of the Yellow River, have you ever thought about why you are living so miserably? If you are a farmer, have you ever wondered: why do you work tirelessly all year round, but you always don't have enough to eat? If you are a businessman, have you ever wondered why you have to pay so much tax? ”

"Maybe you have thought about it, but you can't think of an answer, maybe you haven't thought about it because of the hard work of life, it's okay, now I can tell you the answer, the answer is the Qing court, under their rule, corrupt officials are rampant, landlords and bullies are rampant, so you have to pay rent for half of the grain you harvest all year round; Therefore, you have to collect heavy taxes every time you pass a checkpoint, and this money is used by the Qing court and the corrupt officials under him to enjoy it. ”

"The Empress Dowager Cixi in the capital has to eat more than 200 dishes at every meal, with countless fat chickens and ducks, fat sheep and young cattle, as well as officials of the Qing court, which is not poor and extravagant, where does their luxury come from? From you, your blood and sweat have been exchanged for their enjoyment! Now that this kind of thing is over, I, Lin Yuan, will raise an army to defeat the unscrupulous Qing Emperor and establish a new 'People's Republic of China'!" ”

"I, Lin Yuan, hereby solemnly promise: in our People's Republic of China, every peasant can get land, every businessman will pay less taxes, and everyone can have food and clothing! Come on, join us in defeating this Qing court that has sucked our flesh and blood! ”

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, the hostess on the side replaced Lin Yuan and said into the microphone: "Our Lin Shuai is about to send troops to attack the Qing court, brothers and sisters under the rule of the Qing court, a good day is coming!" ”

Lin Yuan walked out of the broadcast studio and said to Tang Fan: "What I said should be broadcast every day, and then make some programs with the content of the words." ”

Tang Fan said: "Don't worry, I know what to do." ”

Lin Yuan then came to the military department, preparing to leave for the front line of the Yellow River, and arranged for Han Mingguang to come to the capital to preside over the work when he left, Lin Yuan finished arranging these things, and saw Shen Wanqing coming to find him, Lin Yuan hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Shen Wanqing said with a smile: "I have already said hello to the people in the political department of the army, I will take a team of reporters to follow the troops, more than half of the reporters are agents, and they will definitely help you." ”

Lin Yuan asked in surprise, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?" ”

Shen Wanqing smiled: "If I told you in advance, would you agree?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "Of course not, the front line is very dangerous." ”

Shen Wanqing said with a smile: "Then it turns out that when we were fighting in the Northeast, we didn't have such a strong force as now?" Why are you relieved to let me follow the troops? ”

Lin Yuan was speechless for a while, and Shen Wanqing suddenly grabbed his hand and said softly: "I know that you don't want to let me suffer a little danger, but I can't stay in the back all day, I'm not a vase like them." ”

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, and thought, "What do they mean by vases like that?" Oh, I see, it must be those girls who like me, she is highlighting herself by comparing them, hehe, although she says she trusts me, but in her heart she still doesn't want me to be close to other girls, it seems that I am so important in her heart. ”

Lin Yuan felt moved when he thought of this, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said: "Then you must pay attention to safety, don't get hurt, otherwise I will be distressed, and besides, we can't live together in the army, and I can't be special without officers and families." ”

Shen Wanqing's face turned red when she heard this, and she pulled her hand out of Lin Yuan's hand with a "whoosh", and said coquettishly: "I hate it, who wants to live with you." After saying that, she ran away like a fly, Lin Yuan looked at her back with a smile, but suddenly saw that she was bounced back by something when she went out and fell to the ground!

Lin Yuan saw her lying on the ground curled up, knowing that she had fallen a lot, and hurriedly stepped forward to look, only to hear Shen Wanqing say viciously: "Chen Fei, are you in a hurry to be a light bulb?" Why are you running so fast? ”

Lin Yuan looked up, only to find that Chen Fei had fallen outside the door, and he was also grinning, only to hear Chen Fei say not to be outdone: "Heaven and earth conscience, you ask the guards on the side, who ran away?" I came slowly, and you were the one who ran! It's like there's a ** in the house who wants to catch you! ”

Lin Yuan helped the two of them up, Shen Wanqing ignored Chen Fei and left by herself, Lin Yuan asked Chen Fei: "Do you have something to do here?" ”

Chen Fei asked, "I came to ask, won't you take me to the front line of the Yellow River?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "You go back to your troops immediately, you will have important actions." After Lin Yuan finished whispering a few words, Chen Fei happily agreed, turned around and left.

Lin Yuan immediately led the headquarters to set off, and at the railway station in the capital, there were people organized by Zhang Hua to see him off, and Tang Fan also brought people to take pictures and report, making the movement very large, Lin Yuan did this in order to expand the political influence of this matter and let more people join the ranks of opposing the Qing court.

Lin Yuan's military train departed from Beijing and headed south. The train quickly left the city and entered the endless North China Plain, Xiao Yingwu was with the troops, and Ou Zhenhai's Third Division took the western front, so they were not with Lin Yuan, and with Lin Yuan were members of the special staff.

It was August 15, and the North China Plain was full of sorghum taller than anyone else, and the fiery red ears were lying low. ”

The staff officer replied: "The march is very smooth, the land in the northern part of Baoding Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture has been distributed to the common people, and some landlord forces have also resisted, but their resistance is extremely weak and has been suppressed by us. ”

At this time, a staff officer walked into the carriage and said: "Report to Lin Shuai, there is news from the front line of Hejian Mansion that Qing troops have been found in the south of Hejian Mansion City!" ”

Lin Yuan smiled when he heard this: "I know that the Qing army will not only defend passively on the edge of the Yellow River, they will definitely deploy troops in the north of the Yellow River, did the telegram say how many people they have?" ”

The staff officer shook his head and said, "No, they are still scouting." ”

Lin Yuan said: "Report to us at any time if there is any situation." ”

The train advanced for a few more hours, and stopped at Hejian Fucheng in the evening, south of Hejian Fucheng was the territory of the Qing army, and the land reform work had not been completed, so the train could only go here, Lin Yuan got off the train and found Xiao Yingwu without stopping at all, and asked: "How is the enemy's situation being reconnoitred?" ”

Xiao Yingwu replied: "The reconnaissance is almost complete, the number of enemies is quite large, it seems that there are 100,000 people!" ”

Lin Yuan asked in surprise, "One hundred thousand?" So much! ”

Xiao Yingwu nodded and said, "Yes, this is still a preliminary estimate, only a little more!" ”

Lin Yuan asked, "What about the equipment?" ”

Xiao Yingwu said: "In the case of aviation reconnaissance, they do not have heavy weapons such as artillery, as for light weapons, the people outside them use Mauser M1871 rifles, as for the inside of the barracks, they can't see it really, the Qing army covers their situation tightly and refuses to show it at all." ”
