Chapter 96 Chapter 18 A Big Game of Chess

Wu Yanggu and Hu Wantai, members of the Anhui party, went to Jiujiang to ask for revolutionary reinforcements. Li Liejun sent Huang Huanzhang, the head of the regiment, to lead 2,000 people there.So Li Liejun refused to mention Wu Yanggu's name in his memoirs. However, Li Liejun mentioned Hu Wantai repeatedly. What is the reason here? It is said that since Huang Huanzhang killed the party member Wu Yanggu, he has become more reckless. The behavior of his subordinates in Anqing City has changed from simple murder and robbery to rape, burning and killing, and the situation has become more and more serious.

Anhui party members sent distress letters flying around like snowflakes. Some people complained to Li Yuanhong in Wuchang, and some complained to Ma Yubao in Jiujiang.So Li Liejun said: The people of Anhui are suffering. Although I am from Jiangxi, how can I remain indifferent to the suffering of the people of Anhui?I want to raise my teacher to Anhui, liberate the people from the upside down, and save the people from the fire and water. So the three armies swore an oath, and Li Liejun, commander-in-chief of the navy and army, led the Chinese army and led a battalion of infantry.Huang Zhongying, the commander-in-chief of the Navy and the commander of the first team, set off on the flagship of the Haichou.Tang Xiangming, the younger brother of Tang Hualong, chairman of the Hubei Consultative Council, was the commander of the second team and set off on the Hairong.The two fleets are mighty and mighty, rushing to Anqing.When they arrived at the place, the elders of Anqing held a grand welcome reception and promoted Li Liejun as the governor of Anhui, and Li Liejun readily accepted it.

Then Li Liejun called Huang Huanzhang over, and severely criticized: How can you do this, um, steal people's property, um, prostitute wives and daughters, um, how can you do this?Well, no more nonsense in the future. Huang Huanzhang said: Yes, yes, I was wrong, and I promise not to do this in the future. Li Liejun nodded in relief: If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is nothing good about it...I will lock you up for a few days first, and reflect on yourself. Huang Huanzhang's massacre of Wu Yanggu, a party member, was handled properly. But Anhui people are not blind. Li Liejun's treatment is obviously protecting Huang Huanzhang. How can he be convinced?So he continued to complain to Li Yuanhong in Wuchang, asking Li Yuanhong to take care of Li Liejun.Li Yuanhong kept sending reports to Li Liejun, and actually sent five telegrams in one day, telling Li Liejun that Wuchang was in danger, that Feng Guozhang had already occupied Hankou, and you, Li Liejun, had so many people, but you didn't say you were going to Wuchang to help fight the war, just go to Wuchang to help fight the war. Anhui is in constant trouble.Don't even think about it, once Feng Guozhang captures Wuchang, will you have another chance to mess around?

In a word, let Li Liejun not be the governor of Anhui, why bother! Speaking of this, I have to interject a sentence. Let me talk about Li Yuanhong, the governor of the government of the Republic of China. There is an endless stream in history books. Some say that the revolutionary leader Huang Xing is determined to command in Hankou, and some say that the front-line students died on the front line. , Some people say that the death squads of the Communists are rushing to the front line to shed blood - almost no one has mentioned the big fat Li Yuanhong. When everyone is fighting Feng Guozhang's Beiyang Army, what is the big fat Li doing?

The answer is - Fatty Li is busy sending telegrams to all provinces across the country, that is, to persuade them to quickly raise their flags for independence, and to mediate the conflicts and disputes between the provinces.Here, five telegrams were sent to Li Liejun alone.That is to say, Fatty Li is playing a big game of chess, making the provinces independent and Man Qing to death, so that Wuchang can be kept safe. At this time, Hu Wantai, an Anhui party member, invited Li Liejun out of the city to talk. Li Liejun said in his own words: ... Yu rode out of the city to meet, and heard the people along the way saying: Li Dudu is leaving the city, and there will be great chaos in Anhui.Yu went out of the city to ask about the whereabouts of classmate Hu. When he saw a group of people on the hillside, they were menacing.Yu replied: There are many classmates in Anhui, but there is only one person who bears the responsibility!Ke Yu will go to the west, and I am here to invite you to enter the city to maintain order in Anhui Province.Immediately, they rode into the city together. Hu pointed at Yu's back with a pistol, but Yu pretended not to realize it.Arriving at the governor's mansion, Yu ordered the soldiers to salute with the number three, and handed over the seal of the governor's mansion to Hu...

This section of Li Liejun's self-report concealed the fact that Huang Huanzhang killed Wu Yanggu, an Anhui party member, but he was partial to Huang Huanzhang, so Hu Wantai's action of pointing a pistol at Li Liejun's back seemed abrupt and unreasonable.But we know that the Anhui party members must have a lot of resentment towards Li Liejun. Hu Wantai will probably ask him: Li Liejun, don’t think we are blind. Tell you, as long as we are here, you will never think about it! If Hu Wantai really asked this question, how would Li Liejun answer? ...The next morning, Yu boarded the warship, and suddenly heard the commotion in the city, and the sound of gunfire was loud, and he fired at the warship.Yu Zisi said: "The people of Anhui are here. It's really the so-called repaying virtue with resentment."There are no soldiers in Anhui, I led the troops, the soldiers plundered, and I took care of it myself. It is decided that I will return the seal to the people of Anhui, but now they threaten me with gunshots...

This is Li Liejun's complaints about Hu Wantai and other Anhui party members in his autobiography. It is obvious that after Li Liejun left the city, the Anhui party members talked about Huang Huanzhang's killing of Wu Yanggu. Ask for an explanation. However, Li Liejun was not frightened. Seeing that the Anhui party members were overwhelmed and dared to shoot at his warship to avenge Wu Yanggu, he immediately issued an order: fire! Of course it is not to bombard Anqing. If this is the case, it will cause too much trouble.Li Liejun discussed with Huang Zhongying, the commander-in-chief of the navy, and raised the muzzle of the gun an inch, and then heard two loud bangs.

Now it's all honest. If you dare to mess with me, hit me! Then Li Liejun led the warship down the river and went straight to Wuchang.
