On the last day of early March, in front of the main gate of Luyuanju in the southern city of Shangqiu, several groups of soldiers with live ammunition were lined up. Among them were the guards of the 3rd brigade wearing yellow military uniforms, and the 50th brigade who had just been deployed through the pass.
A unit of the Seventh Regiment. Luyuanju was the place where Yuan Su had previously placed all the officers at the Seventeenth Division headquarters and regiment headquarters under house arrest. But after receiving the message from bei jing the day before yesterday, Yuan Su made a special trip here to meet with Li Qian.
The others had some exchanges. They apologized where they should be apologized, fooled where they should be fooled, and showed justice where justice should be shown.
Li Qian was imprisoned for three days. He was naturally in a bad mood these days. Yuan Su didn't give any face in front of so many subordinates. He, the dignified commander of the Seventeenth Division, was simply a coward. But after these few days, he gradually calmed down.
He Xunsi read the message from zhong yang again today. In fact, his mood has almost improved. It was just for show, so when Yuan Su came to invite him out, he still looked very unhappy.
face.
For him, the Seventeenth Division is not all his own forces, and it contains many complex political backgrounds. The three designations of the Fifty-ninth Regiment, the Sixty Regiment and the Sixty-first Regiment were initially adopted from other local troops.
They were drafted and pieced together, and they were not the original members of the Seventeenth Division when it was first established. The commanders of this third regiment were all veterans, and it was estimated that he was just a deputy division commander, and the division commander happened to be Zhang Zhenfang, so he was able to pull off all kinds of tricks.
Such a trick.
The division headquarters has always been unable to control these three regiments, otherwise the five regiments would have been combined into two brigades earlier. It is precisely because of the obstruction of these veterans that the formation of the two brigades has been delayed.
.
Li Qian had long been very dissatisfied with the veterans of these three regiments. If Zhang Zhenfang and his second concubine hadn't always been partial, he would have found a way to take action on these people. Now Yuan Su has directly shot these people, although he did it very well.
Although he went too far, he still solved a serious problem. From now on, after some reorganization, the Seventeenth Division will soon become the power of Li Qian alone.
Standing on the steps in front of the gate of Luyuan Residence, Yuan Su didn't have much expression on his face. He just maintained the most basic etiquette and said: "Master Li, I have really wronged you these past few days. But Yuan's actions are also
I hope you can calm down first so that you and I won’t get into a fight out of impulse.”
Li Qian couldn't help but sneer and said teasingly: "On impulse? I'm surprised that this sentence came from Mr. Yuan's mouth."
Yuan Su didn't care. He said: "The matter has passed. I just hope that Mr. Li will not take it to heart anymore. My so-called impulsiveness before was also hoping to knock down the mountain and sway the tiger. Sometimes the truly terrible enemy is exactly one of our own. Mr. Li
, the arrow has to be fired when it is on the string, and being indecisive will only bring disaster."
Li Qian snorted coldly. Although he heard Yuan Su's truth, he didn't want to give Yuan Su any shame. He said coldly: "The mountains will remain green and the water will flow forever, and there won't be much other gossip."
I said, let's say goodbye." After that, he took the officers of the division, surrounded by the soldiers of the 57th Regiment who came to greet him, got into a carriage and left in a hurry.
Watching Li Qian and his party gradually go away, Yuan Su rode back to the Temporary Civil Affairs Office compound two streets away.
Although the Civil Affairs Office now has a certain scale and system, it is still under the control of the Third Brigade. Yesterday afternoon, the 14th Division sent a liaison officer to negotiate with the Third Brigade on the central yang order.
The implication is about the establishment of a garrison office in Shangqiu and the transfer of administrative power from the Third Brigade to the Fourteenth Division.
Yuan Su ignored the liaison officer sent by the 14th Division for the time being. After all, Qu Tongfeng, the commander of the 14th Division, is still in Beijing. No matter how good the negotiation with the other party is now, he will still have to wait for Qu Tongfeng himself to make a decision.
What's more, he had already put a lot of thought into acquiring the Shangqiu territory earlier, and he couldn't just give it up so easily. So these days, he arranged for a special person to accompany the liaison officer on sightseeing, eating, drinking and having fun.
Returning to the compound of the Civil Affairs Office from Luyuan Residence, Yuan Su sent people to convene the newly elected officials of various ministries to hold a government affairs meeting and listened to the officials of each ministry reporting on the recovery situation of Shangqiu during this period. Basically, the military in the Third Brigade was highly strict
Under surveillance, these officials dare not cut corners, take advantage of opportunities, or even slightly neglect the official duties at hand.
For these bureaucrats who have just taken office, the period of Yuan Su's supervision has been like a year. They originally had the intention of getting promoted and making a fortune, but little did they know that not only would they not be able to make money, they would even be used as coolies. Not only that,
Once appointed, even if you want to resign, you cannot resign. As long as the official leaves without formal approval, it will be regarded as a crime of dereliction of duty. The first time he will be arrested, he will be taken back to review and admit his mistake, the second time will be fined, and the third time will be directly punished.
Go to jail. If he runs away and hides, then his property will be confiscated directly.
Faced with such horrific methods of supervision, these bureaucrats experienced for the first time that being an official was a torturous job.
It was precisely under such a strict administrative style that the post-war recovery of Shangqiu went very smoothly. Officials from various counties and regions worked very efficiently, and the people also abided by the rules. In just ten days, Shangqiu City
It turned from a ghost town into a bustling big city.
Although the life of the people is still not very good, at least they have a house to live in, a piece of land, and food to eat, so that every day will not be a life of despair like before. What Yuan Su did during this period
The situation created is precisely to give the people a new hope. Who would take desperate risks if there is hope?
After the government affairs meeting, Yuan Su met with Jiang Baili, Dai Fengxiang, Wen Qin and others in the study. This meeting was mainly to discuss the strategy for the 14th Division to take over Shangqiu. The Third Brigade formulated a strategy for Shangqiu from the beginning.
Naturally, no one wants to let others take the fruits of their plans.
"The previous execution of eighteen officers of the Seventeenth Division was partly to enforce military discipline, and partly to divert Kaifeng's attention. Originally, the Beijing authorities did not care too much about this matter. Even if they did, they should consider sending the Central Army to Henan.
The status of the province. How could we know that Bei Jing really listens to the wind and rain? They were afraid that we would make the trouble worse. They actually set up a special post of garrison envoy in Shangqiu and appointed Qu Tongfeng who was far away in Bei Jing to take the post. It is really funny.
Extremely." After sitting down, Yuan Su said calmly, and couldn't help but sneer when he said the last sentence.
"Anyway, Governor Yuan did not handle this matter improperly. Look at this newspaper. It was a local newspaper from Zhengzhou the day before yesterday." When Jiang Baili walked into the study, he was holding an old copy in his hand.
newspaper, he said now while handing the newspaper in his hand to Yuan Su.
Yuan Su took the newspaper and took a look. The front page of the newspaper reported the news of the execution of officers who violated disciplines in Shangqiu seven days ago. There was also a photo on it. It showed blood stains that could not be clearly seen at the execution site. There were many people watching around.
.This front-page news describes in great detail, including the crimes committed by the eighteen officers involved, as well as some reports from the victims’ families. Overall, this news report gave the central government enough face, not only showing
The uniqueness of Zhong Yangjun also conveyed Yuan Su's own reputation.
