Chapter 276 Crossroads

.     

"What's the difference between us soldiers? It's just because we're all wearing simple military uniforms..."

The song "The Soldier" was changed to a training song by an unscrupulous person and spread throughout the military camps. Yang Liehu led the sing in an unpleasant voice while leading his own camp along the imperial city. The glass and gold tiles next to him were not interested, because anyone would feel bored when watching it several times. Now he wanted to pinch it most, which was better than practicing like a dead dog every day.

The soldiers also have this idea. The guard division is strictly trained in the entire army. Last year, the veterans carefully selected from Beiyang were trained for three months after training. People would lie in the dormitory to write a transfer report every night, but after writing, 99% of them brought them to coil up to shreds of tobacco, because although it was easier to go to other troops, they were really reluctant to say goodbye.

It is absolutely sad to run with full armed arms, especially when it was early this year, and it felt hot just in May and it was so hot that it was covered in sweat after a few blows. The problem is that the helmet is not allowed to be removed, and the heavy one is like a board on the head.

The singing slowly moved forward around the imperial city. When it was about to reach Xihuamen, the crisp joke made Junge pause suddenly.

Gunshot?!

The sound that had been so familiar to the warriors subconsciously dispersed and scattered. Yang Liehu was even more shocked. Who is so brave to shoot at the edge of the imperial city? Could it be the dead eunuchs who crowed and robbed chickens and dogs!

No matter who it was, the sound of the gunshots made Yang Liehu and the soldiers who had been holding back for more than half a year excited. They immediately searched and moved forward. When they saw behind Xihua Gate, they saw that the robes of several guard brigades had been lying down on the bluestone slabs. There were still many eunuchs and gangsters dressed in the distance who were fighting stubbornly.

This is awesome! The eunuchs and hooligans dare to stretch their claws to the army, and they are simply impatient to live!

Without saying a word, Yang Liehu immediately ordered a company to support him, and then he walked towards the squad leader whose thigh was hit: "What's going on?"

The squad leader almost cried just now, but he never expected that someone would escape from the Forbidden City from under his nose. He thought with his butt, he knew who the person was worthy of such a big fuss, so when he saw Yang Liehu, he poured out all the things he had just happened.

The little emperor was abducted?

My dear mother, this is going to kill everyone!

Like the injured squad leader, Yang Liehu was ready to send troops to pursue him without thinking, but at this moment, a huge agitation suddenly came from the Forbidden City. Hundreds of eunuchs and palace maids who learned that the little emperor had escaped were all in chaos. Many people saw that the Xihua Gate gate opened and took private work and prepared to rush out.

What to do? What to do?!

On one hand, the little emperor was about to escape, and on the other hand, the Forbidden City was in danger. Yang Liehu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Fortunately, the battalion staff woke him up: "Battalion Commander, the little emperor can still be caught after he runs away. If something happens to the imperial city, don't wait for the commander-in-chief to order. The division commander will have to shoot us."

Yang Liehu thought about it, the Forbidden City is a treasure of China. It was already in trouble in the year of Gengzi. It was finally restored to a little vitality and could not let it be poisoned again. Moreover, it was nothing if there was a little treasure. If the outlaws lit up... God would take him away, so he immediately ordered the blockade of all the gates entering and leaving the city, and summoned the soldiers who were about to enter the city: "Remember to me that all this is the treasures of the country. Whoever dares to move can shoot him directly! After entering, everyone will be shot when they see private possessions! Everyone must search for their bodies!"

"Battery Commander, if it's a woman, I'll search it too?" A little soldier asked with a blushing face, Yang Liehu was so angry that he cursed: "Search, you must search it all! If there is anything else besides searching, I will kill you first." Time is precious, and after setting strict regulations, he immediately led two companies into Xihua Gate. He didn't know that at this moment, several battalions of the 101st Division, which were deliberately arranged to train here in other gates, were ordered to enter the imperial city to protect the most magnificent royal palace group in China.

At this moment, the Forbidden City was completely in chaos. Since Yuan Shikai allowed the royal family to continue to exist, the imperial city became its own world. Not only were there a large number of eunuchs and palace maids, but six ministers were also established to work in the office. When the news of the emperor's sudden escape spread, it was conceivable what would be chaos.

More than a dozen eunuchs found swords, sticks and rushed into Kunning Palace from where they used to live. Although the empress dowager died, there were many valuable things. In addition, when Xiao Dezhang left, Gu Nian didn't attack here, so he became a hot commodity in the eyes of eunuchs.

Clang... The Jun porcelain vase was so scared that it was broken and fell all over the ground by the two palace maids guarding the gate. Seeing this, the eunuch added sticks without saying anything. After beating the two palace maids, they began to search wildly, with rings, shi capes, and even embroidered shoes. When they were rushing to go out, they saw a team of national defense soldiers rushing in.

"***! I know that these dead eunuchs are not good things, shoot!" The scenes of robbery along the way have already made Yang Liehu angry. Seeing that these eunuchs killed two palace maids in order to steal things, they shook their hands without saying a word. Before the eunuchs understood what happened, the bullets opened seven or eight holes on their bodies. The gold, silver and jewelry they stolen were scattered all over the ground, and several of them rolled to the feet of the soldiers.

The soldiers didn't dare to pick them up, and they all knew that they would be searched by the military police when they went out, so they could only use their eyes to see them as enjoyable.

The decisive action quickly stabilized the Forbidden City. The eunuchs who smashed and looted were frightened in front of the bloody corpses and blood. One or two of them threw away their things and fled for life. Unfortunately, all the roads they went out were blocked, and the huge Forbidden City was completely closed.

When the main force of the 101st Division arrived and completely blocked, Yang Liehu and the several brother troops that he entered later had stabilized the imperial city. The eunuchs, officials and palace maids were separated, and the soldiers searched one by one without expression, and even the palace maids were not let go. The palace maids who were touched by the soldiers' hands and never let go of their private parts burst into tears when they saw the young general with flowers on their shoulders. Unfortunately, they were disappointed. Denmeng didn't have the idea of ​​mercy on his current life. He knew that he had to be hard at this time, and even if his soldiers and officers left, they must be strictly searched before leaving.

While Yang Liehu decisively entered the imperial city to prevent the incident from worsening, there were joy and laughter in the former presidential palace of Shishizi Hutong. After Yuan Shikai was paralyzed and returned to his hometown, he was taken back into the Beijing left-behind mansion. After the handover was over, he would become the new municipal government location.

In order to welcome Yan Xishan, Duan Qirui tried his best and asked someone to invite chefs from several time-honored brands. However, Yan Xishan loved vinegar but did not like to drink wine. After a few drinks, he stopped. The incident of being pushed back at the train station just now made Duan Qirui feel a little unhappy. Seeing him put down his glass, he looked unhappy. He wanted to say a few words, but unexpectedly, a sharp copper whistle suddenly came from outside the window.

Everyone has heard the copper whistle of police arresting people in the past and doesn’t agree with it. Although the other things were not good during the Beiyang rule, the police and public security in Beijing were pretty good, but this time the whistle seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and a moment later, gunshots came!

Most of the people here are born soldiers. Even if it wasn't for the turmoil in the past few years, they had heard countless such sounds, so Duan Qirui immediately rowed up tables and looked at Ji Fucheng and said angrily: "Go and see, it's the one who is not open to the eyes. It's the one who wants to shoot so many shots when catching a thief? Do you think it's a war?"

Ji Fucheng knew what was the best, but now he was his immediate boss, so he immediately got up and prepared to go outside to pretend, but he was hit hard as soon as he arrived at the door. The person who came in was Duan Qirui's confidant, Fu Liangzuo, former commander of the 20th Division of the Beiyang Army. After the 20th Division and the Feng Army formed the 14th Infantry Division of the National Defense Forces, he could have served as deputy division commander, but recently because Duan Qirui was about to be transferred to the deputy commander of the Wuchang National Guard, he was deeply moved by the lack of staff and took Fu Liangzuo back.

Fu Liangzuo didn't apologize to Ji Fucheng, and then panted and pointed at the Forbidden City and said anxiously: "No...no! Someone was causing trouble outside Xihua Gate just now. Seeing this, the guards stopped him but did not expect that he was deliberately attracted to his attention. Now a black car has picked up the little emperor."

"What!"

Not to mention Duan Qirui, even Yan Xishan, who had just taken office, jumped up, and Liao Zhongkai was so shocked that he couldn't even hold his chopsticks. During this period, Manchuria and Mongolia were very uneasy, especially after Tang Jiyao accepted the commission from Japan as the commander of the so-called Manchuria Army, the situation was about to break out. If it weren't for the Japanese behind him, even Duan Qirui would have wanted to send troops to completely wipe out these guys immediately.

Before I could figure out how to deal with this, I actually saved the little emperor! This is a huge matter. Once the little emperor falls into the hands of the Manchu Lijun, his morale will definitely rise sharply.

"Why are you still standing there? Chase me! I will chase you all, but I will kill you all!" Duan Qirui was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He lost his position taken in Beijing, but now he is the deputy commander of the National Guard and the highest-level officer of the National Guard in the northern region, so he naturally has no choice.

Yan Xishan was already anxious and became an ant on the hot pan. Fortunately, he, the mayor, had not officially handed over, otherwise this matter would be enough to destroy all his political future. But this matter also made him feel that something was wrong. It is definitely not an ordinary person to dare to rescue the little emperor. You must know that it is not difficult to come out of the palace. The difficulty lies in how to successfully break through the interception of tens of thousands of troops in the entire Beijing-Tianjin area! So he immediately looked at Kenji Doihara next to him. He would not believe this matter without the Japanese intervening in killing him.

Kenji Doihara seemed to be fine, and changed his face and bowed, "I guess Brother Baichuan will be very busy these days. I won't come to reminisce about the past next time." After that, he turned around and left behind a bunch of government officials who didn't know what to do.

Looking at his left back, Liao Zhongkai and others could already smell the smoke of gunpowder. They had just seen the dawn of peace for less than a year, and the newborn Republic of China came to the intersection again.
