Chapter 36 Foreshadowing

Chang Ruiqing gently turned the wine glass in his hand, and his mind quickly became pivoted. With his understanding of history, he naturally knew what role Lu Yongxiang would play in the future. In history, after Duan Qirui fell, this person was a pillar of the Anhui clan! He controlled two wealthy territories in Zhejiang and Shanghai, with as many as 60,000 or 70,000 troops. Under Duan Qirui's instructions, he became Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary patron. Sun Yat-sen's Guangdong-Guangdong territories (before Chen Jiongming's rebellion) was defeated under his sponsorship!

In Chang Ruiqing's "revolutionary roadmap", Beijing is not a place to stay for a long time. Even if it trains a elite army of a mixed brigade, it is impossible to control the Beijing and Tianjin areas, let alone manipulate the central government in Beijing! The best opportunity to leave Beijing is undoubtedly the "Dharma Protecting War" that followed after Zhang Xun's restoration. The territory he most hopes to obtain is the neighbor of Zhejiang Province Fujian, so he will become a neighbor with Lu Yongxiang. However, at that time, he can control the fourth division and the tenth division, two backbone elites of the Anhui division, and his team has only opened...

After thinking for a while, he put down his wine glass, whispered at Lu Yixuan, and said with a smile: "Brother Zixiu graduated from the Berlin Military Academy in Germany, and has also seen the beacon of the European War. In our country, he is already a top military talent. It is really a blessing for my model team to have a chief staff officer like Zixiu. As for Brother Zixiu to serve in the future, isn't Brother Zixiu serving in Beijing now and the model team to be the chief staff officer?"

He said to Lu Yixuan sincerely: "Brother Zixiu must know that our model group is a team that has just opened. There is no complicated relationship within it, nor is it my personal team. It is just dozens of Baoding classmates gathered together to save the country and strengthen the country to work together. Now we can get a military talent like Zixiu who study in Germany joining, and we are all desperate to join. In the future, Brother Zixiu will be our comrades. Everyone will work together and serve the country and the people together!"

Hearing Chang Ruiqing's words, Wu Shi knew that Chang Dafu was about to start fooling again! He also picked up the wine glass, raised it at Lu Yixuan, and smiled and said, "Yes, the model group is our team. Now that Brother Zixiu joins in, there is naturally one. Let's help each other to work together in the future!" As he said that, he smiled a little embarrassedly: "But the treatment of our model group is not as good as that of other troops. There is neither a vacancy nor a deduction of military pay. Even this meal tonight cannot be reported to the public account. Brother Yaoru can only pay for it himself. Brother Zixiu, don't think we are shabby here."

Lu Yixuan squinted his eyes and looked at the performance of the two people, and felt a little confused about the other party's ways. Nowadays, the various Chinese armies pay attention to "groups". The "groups" are mutually in line, and they are all excluding from the outside. Even if you are Wuhou reborn and not a system, you will still be excluded. Before coming to the Model Group, he also studied the "groups" of this army. First of all, the Beiyang Anhui faction is not excluded from himself, but the next step is Xu Shuzheng's system, which is based on ordinary Baoding students. He is Lu Yongxiang's man and returned from studying in Germany. It is inevitable that he will be isolated after entering! How could he be regarded as his own? In fact, he was also excluded by a group of old Beiyang in the 10th Division, otherwise how could he be sent to Beijing for "internal communication" by his cousin?

After thinking for a while, Lu Yixuan laughed, raised his glass and clinked it with the glass in Wu Shi's hand, and then drank it all: "Since that's the case, brothers are more respectful than obedient. From now on, everyone will take care of each other and make a career!"

Seeing Lu Yixuan's attitude, Chang Ruiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that the other party would not be fooled by his words, this friend had made a fuss. In the future, he could always contact Lu Yongxiang with the help of him. If he could form a "Fuzhou-Zhejiang Alliance", it would be more ideal.

As for whether this unknown military talent in history can be brought into its own group, we have to take one step at a time.

...

Jin Yongyan, senior adviser to the Presidential Office, was undoubtedly quite confident about the task of winning over his student Chang Ruiqing. He was deeply impressed by this student, not only because Chang Ruiqing's academic performance was always the first, but also because this student showed many extraordinary signs during his time at the Second Army Preparatory School in Wuchang, especially because he was able to win over a group of equally outstanding students around him and form a small group! This scheming and such skills left a very deep impression on him, the principal.

It is precisely because of such skills and scheming that Jin Yongyan is sure that such a person will not be able to work hard for Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng! As long as the situation and price are in place, it is not impossible to change the course and join his own disciples. And with Chang Ruiqing's elite troops as backing, his future will never be a deputy commander of the army, and maybe he can even send a supervisor out of his own...

In order to show sincerity to win over, Jin Yongyan not only brought Li Yuanhong's handwritten letter, but also received a letter of appointment from the Ministry of Army and filled out the title of "Major General Brigade Commander of the Presidential Guard Brigade", and asked Li Yuanhong to stamp the presidential seal and bring it together.

After leaving the presidential palace from the side door, in order to keep it a secret, Jin Yongyan and his secretary did not take a car, but hired a carriage to quietly drive towards Fengtai County, south of Beijing. When the carriage entered Fengtai City, they did not dare to go directly to the military camp, but turned to an inconspicuous alley.

There were a few men who were wearing casual clothes at the entrance of the alley, but were straight and no matter how they looked, they were all men who were waiting there. As soon as Jin Yongyan lifted the curtain, one of them was short and had a buzz cut and showed a fierce look. He hurriedly came up and bowed slightly to him.

"Principal Jin, our leader has just arrived and is waiting for you."

Jin Yongyan looked at him for a while and suddenly smiled slightly: "It turns out it's Zhijie. You haven't gone to Baoding Military Academy, why did you join the model regiment?"

The man was named Zhong Zhijie. He is from Xiaogan County, Hubei Province. He also attended the Second Preparatory School of the Army. However, he did not go to the Third Preparatory School of Baoding. Instead, he participated in the Second Revolution with a group of students who were inclined to the Kuomintang in the second year of the Republic of China. Hearing the old principal's question, Zhong Zhijie also smiled: "Brother Yaoru's model battalion was expanded into a regiment. His Baoding classmates were not enough, so he thought of the classmates from our Army Preparatory School. It was Yan Zihao who sent me a letter. I was also idle at home, so I went north to help, become an intern officer, and get some military pay."

"Intern?" Jin Yongyan was slightly stunned and thought to himself: "This Chang Ruiqing is really preparing for the expansion of the mixed brigade! He is already reserved for officers!"

While he was talking, he saw the gate of a courtyard house in the alley open, and Chang Ruiqing's tall and mighty figure had appeared at the door. Seeing the "old principal" he looked respectful, he bowed his fists and said, "Principal, I have worked hard all the way, please come in." As he said that, he made a gesture of a guest.

Jin Yongyan smiled and touched his beard: "Yaoru, your situation is not small now. Even the classmates in Baoding are not enough. They have brought all the classmates from Wuchang Army Preparatory School. Why? Xu Youzheng has already promised your brigade commander's job?"

Chang Ruiqing's expression remained unmoved: "The principal is joking. Ruiqing's promotion speed is already an exception in Beiyang. How dare you expect any brigade commander? It's just that there are many Wuchang Army Preparatory Schools and Nanjing Army Primary School students are not lucky. I am doing well, so I should take care of you and make a good relationship!"

Jin Yongyan looked at his insincere way and just touched his beard and smiled: "Okay, make good friends. You, Chang Yaoru, like to make good friends when you were in Nanjing and Wuchang. Today, you, the old principal, will you be the one who is good friends with me?"
