Chapter 54 Control the Governor's Office

There was a riot in Beidaying. Wang Houchun and Guo Qi launched two troops of the second mixed association, surrounded Beidaying, and it was incomplete.

"Commander Wang, Commander Guo, are you mistaken? We all obey Governor Zhao. Why do you want to send troops to surround our second mixed alliance?" As soon as Nie Ruqing left, Wu Qiwen was the leader here and shouted to Wang Houchun and Guo Qi, who were far away outside the camp.

"You can't be wrong, you are surrounded by you." Wang Houchun held a loudspeaker. He studied and practiced calligraphy over the years. Although his eloquence was not good, he could still write a few words: "See, brothers in the Second Mixed Association, the Qing Dynasty was over, the foundation in the pass was lost, and the Manchu and Mongolian nobles tried to collude with the Japanese to be independent outside the pass. We are all Chinese. What we are talking about is China, and the soul of the bones is also China! As soldiers, if they cannot defend their families and let the land under their feet split, we will die and have no shame to meet the ancestors. If there is still the blood of soldiers in your body and the conscience of a Chinese, stand up with their own swords and guns. We support the republic together under Lord Ye, and defend Fengtian and the Northeast together!"

"Support the Republic, defend Fengtian, defend the Northeast..."

Six or seven thousand people raised their rifles in their hands at the same time and responded to Wang Houchun's words. The passionate and enthusiastic voices sounded. It took a while before the Beidaying stopped, and the commotion was already in full swing.

"Chen Biaotong, let's see you next..." Wang Houchun handed the speaker to Chen Gan and said with a smile.

Chen Gan took the horn and nodded and turned to the soldiers in Beidaying...

At the north gate of Fengtian.

"Mr. Nie, Mr. Sun has been here for a long time!" Sun Liechen immediately bowed and told Nie Ruqing who was about to enter the city.

"How can Commander Lao Sun welcome him here?" Nie Ruqing smiled.

"There is no way. Lord Ye gave the order. What the Governor wants to discuss today is too important. Please, Lord Nie." Sun Liechen said politely.

"Okay, let's go to see the Governor together." Nie Ruqing nodded and rode along with Sun Liechen.

"I am not accused Nie Ruqing of the Governor."

"Sun Liechen is the humble position, and see the Governor General." Nie Ruqing and Sun Liechen said one after another.

"Well, let's sit down." Zhao Erxun nodded, and then said to Sun Liechen: "Why haven't Commander Ye come yet?"

Sun Liechen said in surprise: "Have you not come yet? Why don't you be humble and ask someone to urge you to urge you again?"

Zhao Erxun shook his head and smiled, "No need, General Ye has his own sense of responsibility, let's wait. This governor also sent someone to notify Senator Yuan and some government officials to discuss together. It's still early."

"I was blocked by Zhang Zuolin, the last time he entered Fengtian, but he didn't expect that he would not move slowly this time. Brother Baili, let's go, Governor Zhao and others were impatient." Ye Chong sent Wenshan to Wenshan about Zhang Zuolin's telegram to support the Republic, and said to Jiang Fangzhen with a smile. "I would like to say thank you to Brother Baili, who told Chen Gan, the former second mixed association, to take action. I believe the inclusion will be much smoother."

"Now you are your subordinate, so don't be so polite." Jiang Fangzhen said.

"That's right." Ye Chong said.

Ye Chong is in good health. Even though he is cold in the middle of winter, he doesn't wear much clothes. He is wearing a straight New Army Command uniform, but he looks inconsistent with a braid hanging behind the military cap.

With a clang, Ye Chong pulled out the saber, held the braid with his left hand and quickly passed it through it. Then he put the braid in the sheath, threw it on the table, put on the military cap, and then said to Jiang Fangzhen: "Let's go."

Ye Chong led the guard battalion to the Governor's Mansion and said to Zhao Erhu, who was guarding the gate of the Governor's Mansion: "It's time to start."

"Yes, sir." Zhao Erhu grinned and gestured to his confidant. The soldiers who were kind-looking just now immediately disarmed more than 50 guards from Erruqing like wolves, and then Zhao Erhu led a large group of soldiers into the Governor's Office.

"What's going on?" All the officials in the Governor's Office, including Zhao Erxun, were shocked when they saw the soldiers rushing in.

A moment later, the guards including Zhao Erxun and Nie Ruqing were all disarmed without any preparation and taken out of the Governor's Office.

"Governor, I've been waiting for a long time." Ye Chong walked into the conference hall of the yamen with a calm expression.

"Okay, okay, Ye Chong, you are actually ill-intentioned and intend to rebel!" Zhao Erxun stood up, his face turned ashen, and pointed at Ye Chong with a trembling finger.

"Governor General, the Qing Dynasty has been exhausted, so don't be obsessed with it. How about talking about it alone?" In fact, Zhao Erxun is quite capable in governing the government, but his idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor is deeply rooted in his mind, and it cannot be explained by reason. Ye Chong was also promoted to the Minister of Training and Training outside the pass under him, and the one-town control was also considered his benefit. Ye Chong did not want to be rough unless he had to.

Zhao Erxun's face was gloomy and calm. After a while, he turned around and walked into a separate room next to the conference room.

When Yang Ping saw Zhao Erxun coming in, he had already entered first without Ye Chong's instructions to see if there was anything wrong with it.

Ye Chong said to important politicians in Fengtian such as Yuan Jinkai, who were sitting, and said, "Everyone sit for a while. When I have an agreement with the Governor, the meeting will continue."

After saying that, Ye Chong walked into the room. Zhao Erxun looked at the window and was stunned. He had no intention of speaking. Ye Chong was not in a hurry and stood beside him waiting for Zhao Erxun's reply.

"What do you want to do to me?" After a long time, Zhao Erxun spoke.

"Since Yuan Shikai has telegrammed the Republic, he will force the emperor to abdicate soon. I believe the Governor should be very clear about this. My brothers and I don't want to be grandsons for the Japanese, so we can only compromise the Governor General voluntarily resign from the position of Governor General of the Three East Provinces." Ye Chong stood in front of Zhao Erxun with his hands and said, "As for Governor General in Fengtian in the future, I can guarantee that you will be rich and have no worries about food and clothing. It is not impossible for the Governor General to be an official. As long as the Governor is willing to cooperate, everything will be easy."

Zhao Erxun's energy seemed to have been pulled away in an instant, and he was ten years older. "No need, I have served as a senior official in my life for several jobs, and I have no official addiction. I will go back to my hometown in Tieling and live in seclusion. If I have enough energy, I will write a history of the Qing Dynasty for the Qing Dynasty. Someone will always do it."

"Xingwu is willing to invest 50,000 taels to open a publishing house to print the history of the Governor into a book, so that it can be spread throughout the world." Ye Chong said.

Zhao Erxun shook his head and said, "It is enough for you to have this kind of heart. Although you are not Yuan Shikai's direct subordinate, you will definitely have a different relationship with Xu Shichang in the future. When I leave, I will leave this mess in Fengtian to you. Governor Dayin will send someone to you later." Zhao Er walked out in a relaxed mood.

"I hope the Governor will live a long life and live a long life." Ye Chong also stood up and walked into the conference room again. After Zhao Erxun left, Ye Chong sat down at Zhao Erxun's position just now and said to Zhao Erhu: "Prepare Nie Ruqing and let him go after hearing this."

"Brother Zan Yao, it's enough to have my guard battalion here. You and Erhu go to the south city gate. Let's have a good show. Don't let the Japanese tear down the stage." Ye Chong said to Sun Liechen again.

"Yes, sir. I will never let the Japanese go beyond the line." Sun Liechen promised with a smile. The 29th Japanese infantry registrar stationed in Fengtian was not as large as that in the after World War II. There was a shortage of an infantry brigade, and the other two brigades each lacked a squadron. Even if the Japanese spies in Fengtian City were added, there would not be more than 2,500 people. The several cannons of this infantry registrar were not much stronger than the fourteen old-style cannons of Ye Chong. This is also the reason why Sun Liechen was so confident. Even if he could not defeat it, there would be no problem to defend the city.

"Ye Chong, why are you catching me..." Nie Ruqing was pressed on the conference table, his face changed drastically, and he started to curse. Before he could say a few words, he was screamed in pain, and was punched by a soldier in the mouth, and then he was taken out.

"I don't need to say anything more about the current situation of the Qing Dynasty. Governor Zhao voluntarily resigned as governor of the three eastern provinces. I will take over now. All officials will not be transferred for the time being. As for the Japanese, you don't have to worry. I have obtained support from Britain, Citi, and Russia. No matter how bold the Japanese are, they will not dare to conflict with these three powers." Ye Chong said to the officials in front of him. "If you disagree, I will give him the opportunity to voluntarily resign."

"Now Fengtian's power is tense. No one can control the whole situation except Governor Ye and protect the safety of the people of Fengtian Province. The humble position agrees with Lord Ye as the governor of the three eastern provinces." Yuan Jinkai stood up and shouted without a chance.

Ye Chong nodded slightly to Yuan Jinkai. Yuan Jinkai is capable, but lacks some character. It’s not that he is greedy, but he just likes to rely on the strong. Last time he asked Ye Chong for his father-in-law Xu Yuehai, he had a meaning of establishing a relationship. There is nothing wrong with relying on the strong, but if the Japanese seize Fengtian, Yuan Jinkai might choose the Japanese. Ye Chong vaguely remembers that there was such a number of traitors in history, but it was not sure.

With Yuan Jinkai's statement, more and more people stood up to serve Ye Chong. After a moment, there were almost no one sitting except for a few old men and Ye Chong who were over 60 years old.

"I am willing to resign from Governor Ye!" The last few old men were a little scared, but still gritted their teeth and stood up and said one after another.

"Yes." Ye Chongchu suddenly said calmly in an unexpected tone: "Seeking common ground while reserving differences. As long as you don't do anything that harms the interests of the heavens, I, Ye Chong, have not reached the point where I, Wang, are narrow-minded and cannot tolerate people with different opinions."

Fengtian politicians held a meeting at the Governor's Office. As a Japanese, Xiaochi Zhangzao was inconvenient to appear, but it did not prevent the Japanese from inquiring about the news here. Soon Ye Zhongbing besieged the Governor's Office, disarming Nie Ruqing and Zhao Erxun's guards, and controlling the Governor's Office reached Xiaochi Zhangzao's ears.

"Baga!" Koike Zhangzao slapped the spy in the face of the news report and said angrily: "Import Ono-kun immediately and bring the 29th Regiment into the city!"
Chapter completed!
