Chapter 108: Expansion Trend

Chen Shixia left with the good news of peace. It is certain that Marshal Fang has a good impression of the Zhejiang business community. Otherwise, why would Zhejiang native Song Hanzhang be appointed as the general manager of the Bank of China?

After sending Chen Shixia away, Fang Jianxiong planned to spend a leisurely day, but unexpectedly things came to his door. Before lunch, Song Hanzhang appeared with a smile. General Manager Song can be said to be very proud of himself recently. Commander Fang listened to his advice and fully adopted General Manager Song's management of the bank.

The proposal is based in Wuchang, Anqing, and Shanghai

All matters concerning the opening of branches were handled by Mr. Song. Song Hanzhang had the final say on all matters large and small. The only thing Fang Jianxiong did was to set up a financial supervision group, which was directly led by Sun Baoqi. Of course, this group basically had no care.

I never ask about banking matters, I just check the accounts regularly.

Song Hanzhang had shares in the bank, and his family and life were tied to Marshal Fang, so he naturally tried his best. Of course, this tie was based on Marshal Fang's strong military strength, otherwise Mr. Song would have just slapped his ass and left.

Song Hanzhang is here to deliver a passbook, one for each person in the headquarters. From now on, the salary will be sent directly to the bank account. If you need money, you can go and get it. This move is an order from Fang Jianxiong and is enforced. Song Hanzhang feels that this order is the greatest benefit to him.

support.

The three women in Fang Jianxiong's secretarial team only get six yuan a month, five yuan is the regular salary and one yuan is the subsidy. Don't underestimate these six yuan. How can you live peacefully by yourself?

They couldn't use any of them, and it was said that the three women in the army had to eat in the canteen, and the food expenses only cost an ocean a month.

It was probably the first time she got her salary. Dou Qingmei was so happy that she quickly put away her bankbook. She didn't realize that for a long time, she had worked for Marshal Fang for nothing, and even slept with him.

"Commander, Tang Shouqian asked me to recommend Shen Junru for a job. Shen Junru didn't accept it, but he didn't leave either. He said he wanted to stay and see Hubei under the rule of the Marshal.

Zhang Taiyan once again acted as a vanguard and wrote an article in the newspaper saying that Chen Qimei had an incentive to kill Tao Chengzhang. On July 26, 2011, while discussing the uprising at Shen Manyun's home, Chen Tao had a conflict. Chen drew his gun and wanted to shoot.

However, Chen Qimei later asked Tang Shouqian, the governor of Zhejiang Province, to pay him 250,000 yuan. At that time, he was the governor of Zhejiang Province.

Tao Chengzhang, the general counselor, refused and said to Chen: Hello, Shanghai will give you enough money, but my money will be used by Zhejiang revolutionary comrades, not for your use. Also, in December 11, the Zhejiang Army objected

Huang Xing was appointed Grand Marshal, and Chen Qimei asked Lu Gongwang to tell Tao Chengzhang, "Don't be troublesome anymore. If you are troublesome, follow Tao Junbao as an example."

After the Tao case, Jiang Zhiqing fled to Japan, and the killer Wang Zhuqing was killed by someone hired by the local Liberation Society in Jiaxing. The matter basically ended hastily, and Zhang Taiyan's article set off a new round of war of words. The Liberation Society and the Tongmenghui completely broke down, and Tao

After Cheng Zhang's death, Huang Xing telegraphed to Chen Qimei to "protect Zhang Taiyan." This inevitably meant that he knew Chen's true nature and warned him not to do any harm.

Zhang Taiyan said in the article: Tao Chengzhang's prison, the guilty has been captured, the confession has been made clear, and all gentlemen should hear the details. After Tao's death, Huang Xing immediately sent a telegram to Chen Qimei, asking him to protect Zhang Taiyan. When the servant saw the telegram, he knew Erzhu

His friends are considered traitors, and he has already become a high-ranking official.

The next day, when he got up in the morning, Fang Jianxiong first did some simple activities in the yard. His wounds were not healed, so he did not dare to exercise too much. Not long after he came back to freshen up, Dou Qingmei appeared with breakfast and a stack of documents.

"How does it taste? The lean meat porridge I made by myself." After yesterday's accident, Dou Qingmei was more generous than before, and her behavior was much more intimate. She cleared the table quickly while talking to Fang Jianxiong.

Fang Jianxiong didn't pay much attention to the smell, but he was attracted by the telegram on the table. The content was an article written by Zhang Taiyan in the newspaper.

He was so engrossed in watching that he couldn't even taste the taste of the bowl of porridge. Fang Jianxiong stood up and left his seat with the telegram in his hand, thinking that this matter could make a big fuss. He was a little distracted in his thinking, so he looked at it from time to time and took a few steps with the telegram in his hand.

The Guangfu Society has great influence in the Yangtze River Basin, with Zhejiang and Anhui as its main scope of activities.

Fang Jianxiong is also deeply troubled by the current political situation. During the historical peace negotiation period between the North and the South, due to Fang Jianxiong's sudden rise, the balance of power between the North and the South was broken. Without the support of Hubei and Anhui in terms of justice, the interim government became even more difficult. Of course, the interim government also

Well, neither Yuan Shikai nor Fang Jianxiong in Beiyang wants to see one side be too weak. Attack Beiyang militarily and weaken the provisional government politically. These two goals have basically been achieved now. What next?

Fang Jianxiong is not a master with great talent and strategy who can control the overall situation. He can't figure it out, so he has to find someone to discuss it and listen to everyone's opinions. As for the battle of Jiujiang, Fang Jianxiong is not worried at all. Zhang Xiaohuai's ability is not bad.

With an absolutely superior force, they will definitely not be defeated.

"Commander, urgent call from Shanghai, urgent call from Bengbu." Yin Weijun suddenly came in, holding a telegram in his hand and handed it over. Fang Jianxiong said casually: "Read it!"

"The peace talks between the North and the South were terminated. Tang Shaoyi's reason was that Yuan Shikai was assassinated. In addition, the third town of the Beiyang Army fell back to Taiyuan, the Shaanxi People's Army was defeated by the Zhao tribe, and Xi'an fell. The fifth town went from Jinan to Xuzhou, and there were those who marched eastward to northern Jiangsu.

It means that the Zhenjun Lin Shuqing’s Department asked Nanjing for pay and assistance, but the Army Department has not yet responded.”

Recalling the emergency message from Bengbu: Xuzhou Zhangbu went south yesterday and approached Suqian. Shao Jian thought that he could not just sit back and watch, but should take action.

Xu Shaojian arrived in Bengbu not long ago. Bengbu currently hosts the 6th Division of the National Defense Force and a newly formed security brigade with about 16,000 people. Of course, the equipment of the security brigade is very poor, only rifles, and they are all old-fashioned.

Guy, he was in charge of security and logistics, so he was fine. Judging from the contents of the telegram, Xu Shaojie did not give any reason.

"Call me back to Bengbu, brother Gu Qing. The political situation has been complicated and confusing recently, so I can speak freely." After the explanation, Fang Jianxiong said again: "Notify me, the military and political officials will hold a meeting."

Marshal Fang wants to hold a meeting. Since he is an important member of the party and government, he must be qualified. All eight directors of the Republican Party are present, plus Jiang Baili, Li Xiaochuan, Yang Xizhang, Cai Hanqing, and Zhang Zhenwu from the National Defense Force are attending the meeting. Forget about the Germans.

Things for the Chinese are too complicated for them to understand.

The group of people came very quickly, and they all arrived in less than an hour. Marshal Fang appeared radiantly in military uniform, and everyone stood up neatly. Fang Jianxiong enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight, well, it was a bit golden that the little fat man was in power.

The last point is that the labor and management are not named Jin, and they cannot be like Fatty Jin and his family, making the people miserable.

Fang Jianxiong basically did not put on the airs of a commander in front of these people, and greeted with a smile: "Sit down, everyone. We are here to discuss the direction of the National Defense Forces under the current political situation. Before the meeting, I will inform everyone about what has happened in the past few days.

some big things.”

Fang Jianxiong was polite, but a group of people did not dare to make excuses. Everyone sat and listened. The people in the army were really convinced by Fang Jianxiong. In the party and government, these people were all veterans. As the saying goes, "the older you are in the world, the less courageous you are." These people.

But you don't dare to take yourself too seriously. If the commander doesn't like you, you have to go and cool off. No matter how talented you are, it will be useless if they don't use you.

After a briefing, Fang Jianxiong continued: "The peace talks between the North and the South have been stopped by Yuan Shikai. The fifth town of the Beiyang Army marched south to Xuzhou, and Zhang Xundong marched to Suqian. The interim government seized on three assassinations and bombed them wildly. The military was forced to

Our army is under great pressure and has no time to go north, and its finances are so depleted that civil servants have no salary to pay. Faced with such a difficult situation under the provisional government, everyone should share their opinions on what to do next."

The number one person under Fang Jianxiong is naturally his teacher Sun Baoqi, who once served as governor. Sun Baoqi coughed naturally, and when everyone's eyes gathered, he spoke: "Today's situation is a bit like dividing the world. I think that the Nanjing Provisional Government is too

Being weak is not necessarily a good thing. We should relax appropriately. If Nanjing is forced into a hurry, it is Yuan Xiangcheng who gets the advantage."
