Wu Xiangzhen, commander of the Fourth Mixed Brigade stationed in Chongqing, was assassinated in front of the Chongqing Hotel.
When the news came out, Chongqing was shocked.
It is said that Wu Xiangzhen was seriously injured and was being treated in a British hospital. His life was in danger.
But his banquet with Wu Xiangzhen didn't hurt a single bit of his skin.
"Brigadier, the British doctor said you are fine."
"Yes, I know." Wu Xiangzhen, who was lying on the hospital bed, nodded with a sullen face: "As soon as the gun was fired, I fell down. I want those who tried to assassinate me to think that I was shot! The murderer
Have you caught him?"
"Not yet, the arrests are being made throughout the city." confidant Yao Guichan responded: "There are already some traces at the scene. I am instructing the [Police] Chief to investigate with all possible strength and solve the case within a time limit!"
Wu Xiangzhen sneered: "You can't count on those [police] officers. Chongqing [police] chief Ying Fuyang is Liu Cunhou's man..."
Yao Guichan was stunned for a moment: "Does the brigade commander think it was Liu Cunhou who did it?"
"Doubtful." Wu Xiangzhen sat up from the bed: "I was ordered by the president to come to deal with the Sichuan army. I struck Peng Guanglie and Liu Cunhou with my first sword. Peng Guanglie stepped down, but Liu Cunhou was still there. His fourth division
We have become the second division, and our strength has been reduced by half. When it comes to jealousy, no one hates me more than him. Besides, since my Fourth Mixed Brigade was stationed in Chongqing, he has been restrained by us everywhere. He said he didn't want to kill me.
It's fake." Yao Guichan nodded frequently after hearing this, and Wu Xiangzhen pondered for a while: "There are two other people who may also kill me. One is Hu Jingyi, the governor of Sichuan, but his chances are slim. The other one"
He was silent for a moment: "Wang Hengyue!"
"Wang Hengyue?" Yao Guichan was surprised: "This is impossible? Wang Hengyue"
Wu Xiangzhen waved his hand: "Gui Chan, Wang Hengyue is not that simple. He is always on guard and ready to deal with everything. He has been staring at Chongqing for more than a day or two. But now Chongqing has my Beiyang forces and Liu Cunhou
What should we do with the forces of Hu Jingyi and the forces of Hu Jingyi? It would be best to provoke an internal fight between us, so that Wang Hengyue can benefit from it!"
"The brigade commander is wise." Yao Guichan said repeatedly.
There was a gentle knock on the door outside. Yao Guichan walked over and opened the door. He whispered something to the person who knocked on the door and closed the door again: "Brigadier, it's not Wang Hengyue or Hu Jingyi, it's Liu Cunhou who did it."
!”
"Oh, what, do you have an idea?"
"Yes!" Yao Guichan nodded: "We traced the clues and chased him all the way. We almost caught the murderer in a house in the north of the city, but he jumped out of the window and ran away. But someone recognized the murderer. He is Brother Xinzi from the north of the city.
The flag’s helmsman is under Qi Shousan!”
"Qi Shou San?" Wu Xiangzhen frowned.
"Yes. This man was kicked off the stage for molesting his brother's wife.
Our people then went straight to Qi Shousan's house, but Qi Shousan was no longer there. We asked his mother-in-law, where do you think he took several people with him?" Wu Xiangzhen thought for a while with his eyes closed, and then suddenly opened his eyes: "Leshan
?”
"Yes! His mother-in-law said that he left a thousand yuan to his family. After repeated questioning, Qi Shousan told his mother-in-law that someone offered three thousand yuan to buy a life! He has to go to Leshan!"
"Okay, okay, both sides will take action together, kill me first, and then kill Wang Hengyue. This Chongqing belongs to Liu Cunhou!" Wu Xiangzhen sneered again and again.
"Brigadier, do you want to take action first?"
"No!" Wu Xiangzhen stretched out his hand and said: "Wait a little longer, take a look at the situation in Leshan, and order my fourth brigade to assemble secretly and prepare for military operations at any time, and then send a telegram to the President to inform him of the situation here!"
"yes!"
Wu Xiangzhen had to wait. He was not sure whether Qi Shousan really went to Leshan to kill Wang Hengyue. He had to completely rule out the possibility of Wang Hengyue killing him. He had to be sure that Wang Hengyue and he were on the same front!
"Hengshuai, Hengshuai!"
There were enthusiastic shouts all around. An old man came over with a few young people, took out his pipe, and did not regard Wang Hengyue as an outsider: "Hengshuai, why do you think you are here again? I heard that you have contracted the cold and need to rest.
, running all the way around, what if you get sick again?"
"Yes, yes." There were echoes all around.
"It's okay." Wang Hengyue said with a smile: "I felt a little hot occasionally, and then I asked the German doctor to see me. I took two pills and slept under the quilt, and everything was fine."
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat."
When the old man heard this voice, he hurriedly said to Wang Hengyue: "Hengshuai, you haven't eaten yet. Let's go and eat together. We have meat today."
"Give me the fattest piece." Wang Hengyue said with a smile.
A big bowl of hot rice, covered with a big piece of shiny fat meat. The meat was fat, with only some lean meat attached to the top. The surname was really impressed by Wang Hengyue, and regarded him as the most valuable guest.
A good piece of meat was given to him.
"Okay." Wang Hengyue ordered some meat: "Your food supply is almost as good as ours."
The old man smiled and said: "Forget it, we were busy here. Who would have thought that a wild boar jumped out of nowhere? Maybe it was forced out by the flood some time ago. Several young people in the village were stunned when they saw it.
Come on, let’s go and hunt the wild boars. It’s a coincidence that you are here today, Hengshuai, and you are so lucky.”
"Well, no wonder I smelled a smell of meat in Leshan. It turned out to be coming from you." Wang Hengyue's nose made everyone laugh. After taking a few mouthfuls of rice, Wang Hengyue asked: "How is reconstruction?
Is it going well? Is the money enough?" "Hengshuai, to be honest, the money difference is still a bit short." The old man didn't hide it: "But everyone is satisfied. You said that in all dynasties, there is no one like us.
?The disaster happened just now, and Bu came down immediately? Contentment, really contentment, everyone is thinking of you again and said that they must raise money to build a shrine for you!"
Someone on the side also said: "Yes, Hengshuai, I heard that this is the case in the whole of Sichuan, only in southern Sichuan. The preparations are sufficient in advance and the losses are minimal. In other places, the officials are indifferent."
All my relatives have defected to us. Hengshuai treated us like this, and we all wish Hengshuai was good!"
Wang Yiyue stopped with his chopsticks and frowned: "No, the money is not enough? According to the headcount of each family, each household with high incomes can get six yuan, which is more than four taels of silver. Later, production resumed,
After this, the garrison envoy came to try to solve the problem, how can it not be enough?" The old man and his companions around him looked at each other and said quickly: "Enough, enough, Hengshuai, look, we are not greedy, are we?
?Always thinking about getting more..."
"No! No!" Wang Hengyue interrupted them: "Tell me the truth, how much money did you get?" Seeing the silence of the old man and his surname, Wang Hengyue put down his bowl: "You want me to be the handsome man?
You are still the guardian here, please tell me honestly how much you got!" The old man became more courageous: "Shuai Xi, to be honest, we didn't get this much. The highest household got three.
Yuan Bajiao."
Wang Hengyue's face darkened: "Ask the person in charge here to get over here!" "Yes!" Huang Zixuan responded and left in a hurry.
"Hengshuai." The old man said hurriedly: "Actually, we are really good here, you"
Wang Hengyue waved his hand and interrupted his words. He didn't necessarily look angry, but fell into deep thought: "You said, we have been hit by a disaster, why are we still like this? Spending life-saving money? I don't know if these people are still human.
I just killed Cheng Meihai, and yet something happened again just a few days ago? Are these people really not afraid of killing?"
Wang Qinglu on the side sighed softly: "Heng Shuai, you are not afraid of killing corrupt officials. How powerful is Zhu Yuanzhang's ability to eliminate corruption, and how severe his punishment is? The whole family is implicated, and Lu Pi establishes his authority. But only one person was killed here.
Batch, there has been another outbreak of corrupt officials over there. In the end, they did not kill all the corrupt officials, but more and more were killed. Corrupt officials are not afraid of you killing them. In front of you, the threat of losing your head has become smaller. In fact, it has been the case throughout the ages.
That's it!" Wang Hengyue nodded slightly, and Wang Qinglu continued: "What's more, most of our lower-level officials are officials from the former Qing Dynasty, otherwise there would not be enough manpower. These people are used to being officials from the former Qing Dynasty and are used to officialdom.
The way Hengshuai behaves, let alone money, even if a piece of pig iron passes in front of them, a layer of iron filings will be scraped off. It is unrealistic for Hengshuai to expect them not to be greedy, but they are just greedy for a bigger or smaller amount." "Yes.
It makes sense." Wang Hengyue held his chin in his hand: "As soon as the flood is over, I will send people to check. Some river embankments have been carefully reinforced, so they are strong in resisting floods and the local losses are small, but some are simply paper.
Yes, like Shaping Duan, Cheng Meihai is simply playing with the lives of these people! I have arrested a group of people, imprisoned a group of people, and will kill a group of others. But Huaizhao, it’s just like what you said.
Killing won’t solve the problem!”
At this time, an official hurriedly followed behind Huang Zixuan. As soon as he arrived, he hurriedly said: "Jiang'an Governor Lu Jianhou has seen the garrison envoy!"
"Governor Lu, come, sit down and talk." Unexpectedly, Wang Hengyue did not get furious as soon as he came up. Instead, he nodded in front of himself and spoke calmly.
Lu Jianhou didn't know why the guard arrived suddenly, let alone why he was called here in such a hurry, so he sat down carefully.
Wang Hengyue glanced at him and saw that his legs were rolled up. Although he was wearing shoes, the soles of his feet were bare and covered with mud. He asked, "What was Governor Lu doing just now?" "Go back to the guard.
I was in Gaowen commanding the dredging, and when I heard the call from the garrison, I came immediately. Therefore, my clothes are disheveled and I have lost my manners. I ask the garrison to forgive me." Lu Jianhou said respectfully.
"Oh, you are at the dredging place with your last name?" Wang Hengyue nodded, carefully looked at the person opposite, smiled, and said slowly: "Compared to other places, you can be considered a good official.
