[Continue to summon subscriptions and monthly tickets for the coming soon! Please give me the confidence and courage to continue to create "Proud"! Thank you!]

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the flags were waving at the gate of the Chengnan Consulting Bureau, and the people were crowded with people. The red-bottom black star flag of the Tongmenghui and the black-bottomed Han government flag with black letters on white were hung high.[]

On the wide steps, the freshly released governor of the Han government, Pu Dianjun and deputy governor Zhu Qinglan, led more than 100 new chiefs from various departments and departments to make a collective appearance, and waved frequently in the orchestra played by the military band, attracting the shocking cheers of tens of thousands of people below the audience.

Hundreds of police officers who maintained order were sweating profusely by the tens of thousands of people watching the ceremony, and were in a mess. They shouted and firecrackers were heard. Seeing that something was going to happen if the celebration ceremony did not stop, Xiao Yimin hurriedly squeezed behind Deputy Governor Zhu Qinglan and new police chief Yang Wei to remind him.

The shocked Zhu Qinglan and Yang Wei shouted and shouted, but the military and political officials were still not satisfied and hurriedly ended the celebration.

More than a hundred chiefs returned to the parliament hall with satisfaction and continued to discuss the establishment and candidates of the county's regime.

This meeting was different from the previous Governor, the Deputy Governor and the Ministers of various departments and departments. Nearly 200 people were present, who did not contribute to the victory of the revolution? Who did not have the old friends and relatives? Especially a group of industrialists and capitalists, in the six-month road protection movement, they contributed the most money and the most effort. Of course, they had to make up for it. Even if they could not become governors, directors, ministers and other senior officials, could they not even be county magistrates?

In the blink of an eye, the entire parliament hall was like a street market, with noisy, questioning, and cursing. Looking around, there was a hustle and bustle, there was almost no gentleman, and there was no good atmosphere of politeness and harmony in the past.

The Governor Pu Dianjun, Deputy Governor Zhu Qinglan, Speaker Luo Lun and others were pale and sweating profusely. Yin Changheng, the Minister of Military Affairs, on the position of the military officer on their right, looked solemn, but his eyes were full of smiles, which made him look interesting. He turned his head and whispered a few words to Xiao Yimin, Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, beside him. After a while, the two quietly left the table and sneaked out from the back door on the grounds that "the army is not easy for interfering in civil affairs."

At Yin Changheng's warm invitation, Xiao Yimin and he climbed up to the height of the city wall on the east side of the south gate. The calm smile on Yin Changheng's face disappeared. He pointed to the south and east sides of the city and asked worriedly:

"Brother Yiming, if Brother Yu's guess is correct, the Southern Sichuan Road Protection Army and the Eastern Sichuan Road Protection Army will arrive soon. At that time, more than 100,000 troops are at the city. What should we do? What will the two governors and the provincial government do?"

Xiao Yimin shook his head helplessly: "I don't know, I just sent someone to contact various rebels at this time. It's too late. Why do we say that everyone has made contributions to the road protection movement? Now that the revolution has been successful, everyone has come to the provincial capital, can't they even make a fortune?"

Yin Changheng stamped his feet with heartache: "Hi! I don't think about it, too much! I have reminded me that no matter what, I must first appease the rebels of all walks of life, otherwise there will be problems. But the people sent by the Tongmenghui all said that there is no problem, because they are an organized and convictional revolutionary party alliance, and the revolutionaries will definitely not harm the interests of the revolution for their own selfishness. All the rebels are revolutionary troops under the leadership of the Tongmenghui. Their arrival will only strengthen the revolutionary power and momentum! This time I will see how they deal with it."

"Brother, aren't you a military member of the Sichuan Tongmenghui? Why don't you persuade me more?" Xiao Yimin asked in confusion.

"Member Hammer! My lungs are so angry. If everyone hadn't recommended it repeatedly and brought out various revolutionary principles, I wouldn't have done this Minister Hammer at all. I just saw their true face of fighting for power and profit, it would be too late to regret it, alas!"

Yin Changheng looked very sad, and frequently slapped his high-highs and his face was filled with sadness.

Xiao Yimin didn't know what he was thinking, and smiled and whispered to comfort him: "Don't be so angry, the establishment of a new regime is definitely not smooth sailing. It is normal for some contradictions and chaos to occur at present. I believe it will be resolved slowly... I am worried about the army of all walks of life. Just as my brother was worried just now, if their wishes were not met, and more than 100,000 troops from all walks of life flocked to Chengdu City, it would probably be even more chaotic and might lead to huge changes."

"Yes! It's ridiculous that those people are still making noise about the official positions of a few sesame and mung beans, and all the crises finally fell on you and me."

Yin Changheng grabbed Xiao Yimin's arm and asked anxiously: "Brother Yiming, what are your solutions?"

Xiao Yimin shook his head: "It's difficult! If the enemy arrives, it's simple. Just guard the city gate and wall. At worst, you can do a battle. But everyone who comes is the so-called "revolutionary comrades". What can I do? It's up to two governors. You can make the decision by the council and brother. I'll follow the order."

Yin Chang focused on the key points, suddenly thought of something, looked at Xiao Yimin and asked politely: "Brother Yiming, there is a proposal for the preparation meeting these days. Whether it is the new army, the border army will be reorganized, and form three towns, that is, three army divisions, and follow Yuan Shaobao's Beiyang Army rank and implement the arrangement. What do you think?"

Xiao Yimin replied without hesitation: "I definitely support it. This is a matter of time. It is better to take one step earlier than to take one step later."

"Okay! Brother Yiming is indeed very broad and big. With your opinion, you can achieve great things! But, will Lord Zhao..." Yin Changheng said this and stopped talking about it.

Xiao Yimin couldn't help but smile: "It's mysterious, can't you just say it right? The teacher has no problem. Since he was dismissed from the Qing Dynasty, especially in provinces across the country, he has the intention to leave his armor and retire. At noon today, General Zhu and Speaker Luo came to my house to inform the meeting. The teacher clearly expressed his support for the new government. His only requirement is to allow border soldiers who are unwilling to continue serving to return to their hometowns. The rest was originally planned to be handed over to my younger brother. Now that I have a comprehensive plan, I will of course put the overall situation first. What should I do? I will follow the decision of the highest meeting, otherwise I will become a swaying hypocrite? I care a lot about my reputation."

Yin Changheng smiled and shouted with pleasure. After praising Xiao Yimin, he whispered to ask for opinions: "Brother Yiming, Brother Yu feels that all the rebels will arrive soon. The parliament and the two governors are both soft-hearted and will definitely not be able to come up with a good solution. At most, it is to temporarily close the city gates and invite the leaders of all the rebels to come to the city for consultation. However, before this, 200,000 riots must not be allowed to rush into Chengdu, otherwise something will definitely happen!

"Brother Yu said hello to you first. Our Military and Political Department must be ahead. In addition to strictly controlling the new army, we rely on your Zhenzi battalion. At least before the meeting came up with a result, Zhenzi battalion guarded the north gate and the west gate, and left the other two gates to Brother Yu to be responsible. The new army and the patrol army jointly guarded, so that Chengdu will never be in chaos."

"Ximen is not something I can do." Xiao Yimin hurriedly reminded.

Yin Changheng waved his hand and said confidently:

"Don't worry, Brother Yu will give you the order signed by the two governors later. Fengshan and his Manchu and Mongolian Guards have always been intimate. Zhenzi Camp temporarily assisted in guarding the Ximen is completely forced by the situation. I believe Fengshan can understand that after the matter, the entire army will be reorganized. Could it be that Fengshan, a man of Fengshan, still wants to stay in Sichuan for retirement?"

Xiao Yimin sighed in his heart and nodded immediately to agree. Chengdu is his property, and hundreds of thousands of people are his fellow villagers. No matter how he does it, he cannot let the place suffer from military chaos.

After the two said goodbye, Xiao Yimin returned home with the guards, reported the meeting situation to Zhao Erfeng and submitted the order of the governor of the Han government.

Zhao Erfeng didn't even look at it, and threw it aside, directly called Xu Weiyue to discuss it. The three of them quickly made a plan, and Xu Weiyue personally went to the General's Mansion for the City to coordinate with the document covered with the seal of the Sichuan Governor. Xiao Yimin immediately returned to the camp and mobilized troops to arrange defense. Zhao Erfeng still returned to the Governor's Mansion and watched the changes.

After Xiao Yimin returned to the camp of Beizhaichang, he immediately sounded the assembly trumpet.

Xiao Yimin stood on the reviewing stand on the north side of the playground, overlooking the two thousand brothers in an orderly manner in front of him. For a moment, he was excited. Without having to place a microphone, he walked to the edge of the front desk in a few steps, slowly took off his military cap, and threw it aside.

In the setting sun, Xiao Yimin shouted loudly in his loud voice:

"Brothers, I ask you to remember this day. On November 27, 1911, the New Calendar, I, Xiao Yimin, and my brothers, broke out from the Qing army. From today on, everyone in our Zhenzi camp is no longer a lackey of the Qing Dynasty, no longer an army of any government. We belong to ourselves, we control our own destiny, and we don't have to look at any face to live!"

The officers and soldiers at the audience were full of shock, and their incredible eyes were staring at Xiao Yimin, who was disheveled in hair on the stage.

Xiao Yimin continued to yell:

"Maybe brothers will ask, who do we belong to? OK! Today I, Xiao Yimin, will tell you clearly that we come from all over Sichuan, from ordinary people's families, and those who have raised us are our parents at home. Those who love me and love me are brothers and sisters and fellow villagers. In a word, we come from the people, so we belong to the people and must also belong to the people! Since we have been a soldier and pick up a gun, we have to protect our family, our fellow villagers, and the people of the whole world!

"From today on, we no longer belong to anyone, everything we belongs to the people, we are the army of the people! I, Xiao Yimin, swore here: In this life, we will put tens of millions of fellow villagers in Sichuan first, for all the fellow villagers to eat and wear warm clothes, and in order not to be bullied by anyone, I, Xiao Yimin, went through fire and water without regrets!"

The audience was silent, and the officers from each team were excited and could not help themselves.

This was the first time that the soldiers were so excited to see the superiors they admired and respected. They said everything for the sake of their fellow villagers. For the first time, they knew that they did not belong to the court, the government, but only to their fellow villagers and the people of Sichuan.

On the high platform, Xiao Yimin pulled out the dagger from his waist, grabbed his long braid and slashed his hand with one knife. The sharp dagger easily cut the braid.

Xiao Yimin slowly raised his braid, suddenly threw it out more than ten meters away, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Brothers, if you are willing to follow me, Xiao Yimin, cut off the pig's tail behind your head. If you want to leave this pig's tail, as long as you leave weapons and equipment, I, Xiao Yimin, will send him the travel expenses to him home!"

"Sir, we'll follow you-"

"Whoever leaves, I will kill him!"

"Fatty, help me cut it. The heavy machine gun I carry is too heavy..."

The playground was filled with noise and noisy. Whips were thrown to the ground. Brothers were blushing and shouting loudly with great excitement. No one left.

In less than five minutes, two thousand braids were scattered all over the ground, and the rearranged formation became even more neat. Two thousand officers and soldiers had bright eyes and their blood was staring at the stage with boiling blood, and their morale became unprecedentedly high.
