Chapter 123 Section 5 Cai E rescued the people who were released from prison

It is said that Tang Tianxi took the initiative to invite Ying. After going to the front line in Hunan, he had just gained a foothold when visitors came to the door. Who is it? Zhao Hengti. What is the history of this person? Zhao Hengti is well-known in the history of Hunan.He was a student studying in Japan sent by Yuan Shikai when he was in power in the late Qing Dynasty, and he took the same ferry as Song Jiaoren when he went east.Before he went to Japan, he agreed that he would study as a teacher and come back to be a teacher who eats chalk dust. But after he arrived in Japan, due to the increasingly tense national affairs, he changed his studies to military affairs and entered the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy. After graduation, he returned to Guangxi. Train new troops.

While training, the Great Wuchang Revolution took place. Zhao Hengti took action immediately. After Guangxi declared independence, he organized a student army, led by him, and went north to protect Great Wuchang.Not long after, peace was negotiated between the north and the south, and Zhao Hengti was ordered to drive to Nanjing. Before leaving, he borrowed 50,000 yuan from Li Yuanhong for the departure fee.After arriving in Nanjing, Zhao Hengti returned the loan. Li Yuanhong was frightened by this strange incident, because there were many troops who borrowed money from Wuchang at that time, but Zhao Hengti was the only one who paid back the money, so Li Yuanhong could not understand.

After that, the peace talks between the north and the south were successful, and the Nanjing government began to dismantle the army. Zhao Hengti led his army to have nowhere to go, and wanted to return to Guangxi, but all the officials who declared independence in Guangxi at the beginning also ran to the north. The new governor Lu Rongting did not welcome him.In desperation, Zhao Hengti decided to propose his fiancée. Zhao Hengti's fiancée, whose surname is Tong, has an older brother, Tong Meicen, who is an adviser to Tan Yankai, the governor of Hunan.With the help of this relationship, Zhao Hengti led his army to Hunan and ended his life of wandering around without a fixed place.

After that, Song Jiaoren's assassination case broke out quickly. Based on this, the Japanese Mitsui consortium contributed funds, and the Kuomintang members rioted everywhere.Hunan did not perform very well. It took a lot of effort to declare independence, and then quickly declared that it was not independent.Tan Yankai, the governor at that time, was ordered by Yuan Shikai to go north to face the crime.And Tang Xiangming, and Wu Xiangzhen, who is currently under General Chen Huan in Sichuan, entered Hunan as the investigation envoy of Hunan and began to repair the Kuomintang. Surprisingly, Zhao Hengti was arrested in this incident, and it is also said that he was captured.If he was captured, there should have been a decent battle, but there seems to be no chance for a firefight between the two sides. In short, Zhao Hengti was captured alive by Tang Xiangming and escorted to Beijing for questioning.

Tan Yankai and Zhao Hengti were taken into Beijing together.Before entering Beijing, there was a long line of people outside Yuan Shikai's gate who came to intercede for Tan Yankai. Vice President Li Yuanhong ranked first, and Prime Minister Xiong Xiling ranked second.Such a strong lineup of intercession, in exchange for Tan Yankai was sentenced to four years in prison, and then pardoned.So Tan Yankai went to live in the Qingdao Concession. The door opposite his apartment in Qingdao was Cai E's teacher Li Jingxi. Poor Zhao Hengti had no one to intercede, so he was sentenced to ten years in prison and sent to prison.When he was struggling in prison, Cai E entered Beijing.He came, and finally someone interceded for Zhao Hengti.So Zhao Hengti was also released, returned to Hunan, and became a teacher again.

It was Yuan Shikai who put Zhao Hengti in prison.It was Cai E who made Zhao Hengti the teacher again.So Zhao Hengti's political stance at this time is self-evident. So Zhao Hengti went to see Tang Tianxi and brought him a generous gift.
