Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Taking advantage of the fire and occupying Hangzhou

There are many coincidence factors in the affairs of the world. Some people say it is God's will, and some people say it is luck.In fact, it is not as appropriate as a coincidence. During the period when Sun Chuanfang entered and left Fujian, an influential event also took place in Shanghai in the Yangtze River Delta—Qi Xieyuan, a warlord of the Zhili lineage, a patrol envoy of Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi, and a governor of Jiangsu, and Lu Yongxiang, a warlord of the Anhui clique and governor of Zhejiang. , a war that has been brewing for a long time is already imminent.I don't want this war, Sun Chuanfang has won big profits——

Shanghai is a piece of fat.It attracts the coveted of countless adventurers, and even more the favor of many military strategists.According to experts' research, during the period of warlord melee, the income from the opium business in Shanghai alone could fully support three divisions.Shanghai is located in the Yangtze River Delta, adjacent to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.According to the division, Shanghai belongs to Jiangsu Province.However, when Duan Qirui was in power, Shanghai was managed by the Zhejiang Governor.This situation has continued.Qi Xieyuan said bluntly to Wu Peifu: "As long as Cai Chengxun from Jiangxi, Sun Chuanfang from Fujian and I jointly send a letter to Lu Yongxiang, Lu Yongxiang will have to withdraw from Shanghai. Taking Shanghai without a fight will not only enhance our prestige, but also economically It's also very rewarding, and removes a sword that's been stuck in our stomachs for years."

Wu Peifu is sitting in Luoyang, Zhongzhou, and he only has the Central Plains in his heart, and he is unwilling to devote too much energy to the southeast coast; besides, Cao Kun has just spent a lot of money to buy a president-although Wu Peifu does not fully agree with the purchase of the president.However, the president bought it, and he still tried his best to maintain him——and he had to be given a quiet time as president to show a peaceful atmosphere. Even if it's just a show, you have to do it.Therefore, Wu Peifu did not agree to attack Lu Yongxiang.Qi Xieyuan had no choice but to sigh and say to his subordinates: "Wu Yushuai does not support us to take Shanghai, so we have to live in poverty. I am a patrol envoy, and I have an empty title." However, Qi Xieyuan's attempt to swallow Shanghai has not been given up.

A native of Xianxian County, Hebei Province, Qi Xieren (styled Fuwan), graduated from the Baoding Army's Accelerated Military Equipment Academy.He was assigned as a trainee officer in the sixth town of Wu Luzhen.One year later, he was admitted to the Beijing Army Preparatory University, and after three years of graduation, he returned to Liuzhen as a third-class staff officer.The uniform of the six towns was replaced by Li Chun, and Qi was still in the six towns. In 1913, Li Chun became the governor of Jiangxi, and Qi Xieyuan was promoted to the commander of the Sixth Division. Later, Li committed suicide while serving as the governor of Jiangsu, and Qi Xieyuan succeeded him as the governor of Jiangsu.In addition to Qi's Sixth Division, Zhu Xi's Nineteenth Division (Zhu also served as Su Chang's guardian), Gong Bangfeng's independent brigade, Wang Guilin's armed police (one and a half divisions), Baibaoshan's One division (Bai and the guardian envoy of Haizhou) and one division of Ma Yuren (Ma and the guardian envoy of Huaiyin).Most of these division brigade commanders graduated from formal military schools, and Qi Xieyuan was able to win over people, so they were relatively united and had strong combat effectiveness. Soon after 1924, Qi was determined to take back Shanghai: he appointed Zhu Xi to lead the 19th Division as the commander-in-chief of the Shanghai-Nanjing front line to occupy the Shanghai-Nanjing line; ordered Gong Bangfeng to lead a mixed brigade to station in Zhenjiang and Danyang; The mixed brigade and Wang Guilin's armed police are stationed in Nanjing and Liyang... In this way, a layout to seize Shanghai has been completed.

Lu Yongxiang (zijia), the main backbone of the Anhui Clan, was originally a soldier in the third town of Xiaozhan, and gradually climbed up to the position of supervisor from a cook.After becoming the governor of Zhejiang, he also served as the commander of the Tenth Division.He also has Chen Le's Fourth Division, Chen Yi's First Division and Zhou Fengqi's Third Division, all of which are local armed forces in Zhejiang, with poor equipment and military discipline, and poor combat effectiveness; only Xia Chao's armed police are relatively strong. strong.Lu Yongxiang was born in the army, he is more cautious and does not want to start a war with Qi.Before the war, he also sent his right-hand assistant Ma Baoheng to Nanjing to make peace with Qi Xieyuan, willing to share the interests of Shanghai equally.When Ma Baoheng went to Nanjing, he first went to meet his elder brother Ma Baochen (Ma Baochen was the brigade commander of Qi's 19th Division and the de facto chief of staff). He first expressed Lu Qi's friendliness and unwillingness to go to war, and then expressed his willingness to give up some of Shanghai's interests.Ma Baochen shook his head and said:

"Both sides are ready, let's see who fires the first shot first. Where is there hope for peace talks?" However.Ma Baochen still took his younger brother to meet Qi Xieyuan, and expressed Lu's good wishes face to face.When it came to the end, Qi Xieyuan had no intention of accepting peace talks other than expressing his gratitude to Ma Baoheng for his lobbying.Ma Baochen had no choice but to say to his younger brother: "We decided to attack Shanghai. The internal situation is more complicated. Apart from the military and economic value of Shanghai, there are other reasons. The blind man (Qi Xieyuan nicknamed Qi Xiazi) also has his difficulties."

There was no hope for Shanghai to seek peace, so Lu Yongxiang had to mobilize troops to prepare for war; Shanghai was put in charge of the army guard He Fenglin, and an additional brigade from the Tenth Division was added; Zang Zhiping led his mixed brigade and another mixed brigade to deploy in the area from Huangdu to Liuhe on the Shanghai-Nanjing line The headquarters was set up in Zhenru; Chen Leshan led a part of the Fourth Division and a part of Chen Yi's First Division to station in Yixing; another two were stationed in Quzhou and Jiangshan to monitor the enemies who came to aid from Jiangxi, and one was stationed in Jinhua and Tonglu; the rest had a small force Led by Lu Yongxiang, he sits in Hangzhou and guards his hometown.

So far, the battle of Qilu centered on Shanghai has come to the point where it really "just depends on who shoots the first shot." Sun Chuanfang decided to "attack Lu Jiaxiang and swallow Hangzhou" after a general understanding of the above situation. Sun Chuanfang saw that his generals were puzzled, and some even suspected that he was absurd and dreaming.He was not angry, he unbuttoned the general's jacket, sat back in the grand master's chair, and picked up the teacup—this time, he didn't play with the attitude of a connoisseur, but with the momentum of rain after a long drought. With a short face, "Duddudu" drank it all, then put down his cup, and continued with confidence: "Well? Do you think my plan is absurd? No, it's absurd. I know it in my heart." He looked at everyone, and continued Said: "Do you know what Lu Yongxiang is doing? Lu Yongxiang's whole nest is ready to fight Qi Xieyuan on the Shanghai-Nanjing line! His main force is transferred there, and Hangzhou is empty! We will go wherever we want , Hangzhou is not ours anymore!" He stopped talking suddenly, with a smug expression on his face.

The venue was loose, like a convective window suddenly opened in a stuffy boiler room, and a cool air flow slowly passed by, infiltrating all the people in the house with comfort and joy! , and some people whispered with worry: "Isn't this taking advantage of people's danger and throwing stones into trouble!" Sun Chuanfang's ears are sharp, and he can hear people's words clearly.To El, who contradicted him so bluntly, he would have laughed maniacally at "martial law."Today, he didn't take it seriously. He calmly explained his wise decision to "attack Hangzhou" with easy-to-understand theories.He said: "What is war, do you understand? War is nothing else, it is 'used' to learn. If you win, you will get everything you want; if you fail, you will lose everything you got. As a commander , you have to have a strong "bringing thoughts"! Otherwise, who is willing to fight with their heads? Let's say whether we beat Lu Yongxiang or not, it's best not to. Where are we going if we don't? Break up and go home Take the baby?" He paused for a moment, and then said mockingly: "Huh? 'Taking advantage of others'? I just want to use very few sacrifices in exchange for the greatest victory! Let's not fight Lu Yongxiang. Lu Yongxiang defeated Qi Xieyuan and won the world , Facing South Dengji, you still have to call him 'long live'! I won't do it. Whether it's for us or for the old man, I won't do it! Understand?"

Everyone nodded frequently. Sun Chuanfang issued an order: "Get ready, start tomorrow!" Although Sun Chuanfang's theory has never seen the scriptures, he saved the defeated army with this theory! Sun Chuanfang's army attacking Zhejiang was led by Xie Hongxun as the former enemy commander-in-chief and Meng Zhaoyue as the commander-in-chief of the general reserve force.Braving the drizzle, they drove straight and killed all the way.Sun Jun was dressed in rags, shorts and straw sandals.Lu Yongxiang's reconnaissance found the army dressed in such a way, he thought it was a group of bandits armed, and reported to Lu Yongxiang, but Lu Yongxiang didn't take them to heart.The defender stationed at Xianxialing, the frontier position in Zhejiang, is Zhang Guowei, deputy commander of the Zhejiang Frontier Defense Force.This person has a strong desire to be a leader, and he followed Lu Yongxiang as the head of the artillery regiment for ten years.Now, he is still a regimental-level deputy commander, and he has long wanted to fly out under another banner.Suffering from no opportunities for development.Now, after finding out that Sun Chuanfang's team is going to enter Zhejiang, they intend to raise their flags.When Sun Chuanfang's soldiers arrived at Xianxialing, the detectives in front reported back; Zhang Guowei, the garrison, had a different flag movement, so he arranged for Lu Xiangting to lead two regiments to go around to the left side of Xianxialing with light clothes to feign an attack. Received Zhang Guowei, Deputy Commander of the Zhejiang Frontier Defense Force.Later, after negotiation between the two parties, Sun Chuanfang was willing to go to Xianxialing in person to negotiate face to face.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly after a long period of rain.Sun Chuanfang appeared at the foot of Xianxia Ridge wearing a general's uniform. People reported to Zhang Guowei, and Zhang Xixi immediately led his cronies to welcome him down the mountain.At a distance of tens of meters away from Sun Chuanfang, a white flag was unfurled and kneel down to meet Sun Chuanfang. Xianxia Ridge is surrounded by mountains, steep peaks and ridges, shaded by green trees, and castles are scattered and looming.It is both a mountain and a pass, and there is only one winding mountain path to enter and exit. It is an extremely dangerous position, which can be called an important place where "one man guards the pass, and no one can enter". People feel that the depth of the city here is unpredictable. Sun Chuanfang has always been suspicious of "ghosts" and was afraid that Zhang Guowei's strange flag would be deceitful. When he saw Zhang Guowei coming in front of him, he couldn't say a word. To stab. Zhang Guowei jumped up, then lay on his back on the grass on the left side of Sun Chuanfang, and asked in panic: "General, why is this?" Sun Chuanfang roared and said, "Don't treat me, Sun Chuanfang, as a three-year-old child, I won't be fooled by you!" "General, what do you mean?" Zhang Guowei stood up, chest out, and a little angry. "What do you mean? You understand." Sun Chuanfang said: "Xianxia Ridge is such a dangerous place, and the two armies have not yet contacted. Why did you raise the flag?" Zhang Guowei smiled. "So, I, Zhang Guowei, admitted the wrong person." "Well, what do you mean?" Sun Chuanfang asked: "I have heard that the general is as modest as he is, respectful and virtuous as a corporal, and the country's prestige has long been attached to him, and he hates not being able to meet him." Zhang Guowei brushed off the mud on his clothes, and said contemptuously: "I don't want you, Sun Xinyuan, to have a false name. I met you like this today, don't I?" You have eyes but no pearls, and you know the wrong people." "Ah!" Sun Chuanfang was surprised. He didn't expect an enemy general to surrender voluntarily and have such a heart, neither humble nor overbearing, which is admirable.He put away his saber, looked up and saw that he was tall and tall, with square eyes, raised sword eyebrows, and a contemptuous expression that was half a smile, and he felt that he was an upright hero.However, Sun Chuanfang still interrogated suspiciously: "Zhang Guowei, you are just a deputy commander of the Zhejiang Frontier Defense Army. Let me ask you, why didn't the commander of the Border Defense Army Chen Yi come out?" Chen Yi is Lu Yongxiang's confidant.Although Lu Yongxiang appointed him as the commander of the border guards, he stayed in Hangzhou all the time.A few days earlier, he was sent to Yixing to prevent the Qi army from invading from Liyang and Jurong.Zhang Guowei believed that he was from a Japanese non-commissioned officer school and was the head of an old artillery regiment. He was unwilling to delegate power to Chen, so he prevented Chen Yi from taking office under the pretense of "no war ahead".Now, he said to Sun Chuanfang: "You said that Chen Yi, I pushed him away with an excuse." "why?" "It's for today." "But I don't believe it." Seeing that the debate was useless, Zhang Guowei turned around and said to an assistant: "Give me an order, and all the generals will gather at the back of the mountain immediately, waiting for General Sun's arrangement!" An order was issued, but the soldiers looming in front of the hillside bunker came out one after another and retreated to the back of the mountain. Sun Chuanfang was moved. From the looks of it, Zhang Guowei was sincere.He frowned and pondered for a moment, then came to Zhang Guowei, and said in a soft tone: "Lu Zijia has treated you well! Why don't you work for him?" "General Mingjian," Zhang Guowei said, "but you should know: a scholar dies for a confidant. Lu Zijia is not my confidant." "How did you see it?" "How many of the generals belonging to the Zhejiang Warlord Army graduated from the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy? The cook doesn’t know anything about military affairs, but he just voted Duan Weinose (Duan Qirui) into his door and promoted him. You don’t know, he especially excludes people from the Japanese military academy, treats these people as dissidents, and suppresses them to death You can't hold your head up." "So, you are also from the Japanese Military Academy!" Sun Chuanfang said: "We are still classmates!" "I'm ashamed," Zhang Guowei said, "I'm a soft-spoken person now. I know that I have a classmate relationship with the general, but I have no face to climb up." Sun Chuanfang smiled—he was a classmate, and he dedicated Xianxia Ridge without firing a shot. Sun Chuanfang’s confusion disappeared—he took off his sword, held it up in front of Zhang Guowei, and said frankly: "I, Sun Xinyuan, take the blame! I also hope that my brother will read the friendship of classmates, little brother Haihan!" Zhang Guowei also cupped his hands and said: "If you don't fight, you don't know each other. Today, I can belong to my old classmate, and finally my biggest wish has been fulfilled. What to do in the future, I will listen to General Sun." "It's an old classmate, don't call him a general." Sun Chuanfang entered Lingguan with Zhang Guowei, so he appointed Zhang Guowei as the commander-in-chief of the artillery, and handed over all the artillery brought by Fujian to Zhang as a guide, and drove directly to Hangzhou. Now that Sun Chuanfang has Xianxialing in southern Zhejiang, the hunger and cold disasters have all been solved, so he is not in a hurry.However, he also garrisoned his army and stopped advancing—he waited for a good opportunity, and after the Qilu family started a war, when Lu Yongxiang really couldn't get his feet out, he would enter Hangzhou again. The "Battle of Qilu" finally started. On September 3, 1924, before dawn, the Qi army officially opened fire on the Lu army before dawn.The two armies lay in the trenches and fired at each other. Although the artillery was booming, because they were all blind, there were few casualties.God also worked hard. After the two armies fought, it rained continuously, so that the officers and soldiers of both sides were covered with mud and water.Although wooden boards were erected in the trench, it was still muddy due to the heavy water. Once, Yang Geng and his regiment of Yang Huazhao of the Lu Army carried out a whole regiment charge to capture the Qi army's position.Attacking only a few hundred meters away from the Qi army's position, they were repelled by the artillery fire of the Qi army's Zhu Xi's department, and six or seven hundred people died.Then, the Qi army carried out a large-scale roundabout battle in the middle of the night, using two regiments to attack the Lu army's right rear from the right side of Liuhe; , The Qi army suffered more than a thousand casualties.Since then, the war has been in a rhythmic and gentle state; there are offenses and defenses, and there are rushes and slowdowns; the strange thing is that when it is time to eat, both opposing sides stop fighting and eat; when it is time to sleep, both opposing sides go to sleep separately .In such a war of neither death nor life, neither rush nor delay, Sun Chuanfang led the army into the battle and—— The news of Zhang Guowei's surrender to Sun Chuanfang spread to Hangzhou, but Lu Yongxiang did not believe it; after checking the facts, he panicked again.As a result, Lu Yongxiang hastily withdrew the military governor's office from Hangzhou to Jiaxing, and Chen Yi and Zhou Fengqi's two divisions withdrew to Jiaxing and Songjiang.Lu Yongxiang decided that the Governor of Zhejiang Province should be represented by Xia Chao, the Chief of the Police Department, and that Xia Chao would also be the commander of the Hangzhou Garrison; Chen Leshan's division would be withdrawn from Yixing to Huzhou and Jiaxing for defense.Lu Jun was forced to take a precautionary position. After Sun Chuanfang became a soldier in Zhejiang, he distributed a "Handbook for Entering Zhejiang" to each officer and soldier.The content of the handbook is: "We were forced out by Zhou Yin people in Fujian. We can't go back to Fujian. As long as discipline is strict and there is no crime in autumn, we will be able to enter Hangzhou and occupy Zhejiang." Affecting Sun Chuanfang's army - this was concocted by Sun Chuanfang and his senior assistants Yang Wenkai and Lu Xiangting in Xianxialing for 10 days. They hate it, they want to establish a good military discipline, and "reform the past and reform the new" for themselves to gain a foothold in Zhejiang.When Sun Jun entered Zhejiang, whether he was camping for the night or resting and eating, the company and battalion commanders would read this booklet aloud. Even during the march, the officers read it and the soldiers followed suit.Sun Chuanfang also often said to the officers and soldiers: "Fujian won't let us go back. If Hangzhou can't get in, there is really only a dead end!" Since Sun Chuanfang's army invaded Zhejiang, the battle on the Shanghai-Nanjing railway line has become increasingly fierce.When Qi Xieyuan learned about Sun Junzhe, he immediately sent someone to contact him.The Qi army's offensive intensified, charging three or five times a day.Although Lu Jun's artillery fire was strong, he was attacked from the front and back, and gradually became a disadvantage: Jiaxing, Pinghu, and Huzhou on the Shanghai-Hangzhou line were getting tighter; Huangdu and Jihe on the Shanghai-Nanjing line suffered heavy casualties.On the battlefield of more than 100 kilometers on two lines, the battle is getting tighter day by day. Lu Yongxiang's troops withdrew from Hangzhou, the front line was greatly shortened, and the supply became smoother; his main generals Chen Leshan, Zang Zhiping, Yang Huazhao, Zheng Junyan, etc. also broke the boat and prepared for a desperate battle. join the war.Therefore, Lu Jun's position is still stable. Sun Chuanfang, who was living in Hangzhou, saw the victory of the tiger fight, but became silent in Hangzhou, closed the door, and didn't want to see anyone anymore. The "Battle of Qilu" is directly related to victory: Sun Chuanfang's entry into Zhejiang is the key to determining the outcome.After the victory, there is no problem for Sun Chuan to occupy Zhejiang, but what about Shanghai?Sun Chuanfang racked his brains. The troops that Qi Xieyuan participated in the war originally had different ideas and each had their own private thoughts: Zhu Xi, the commander of the 19th Division, was Su Chang's envoy, and it was natural for him to be the commander-in-chief of the former enemy; With strong strength and veteran qualifications, he volunteered to play forward.The purpose of these two people is the same, that is, to be a young guardian envoy after victory.On the eve of the war, Wu Peifu transferred his confidant Zhang Yunming's mixed brigade from Huchan to Tongjing. The name was to support Qi Xieyuan and Zhang, and he wanted to be the guardian of Shanghai. . Sun Chuanfang, who won the Zhejiang territory with little effort, became a pivotal figure in the "Battle of Qilu", not only determining the outcome of this battle, but also determining the ownership of Shanghai.Who is the Shanghai native after the victory?Sun Chuan took the initiative to think. After Wang Zhanyuan was defeated in Hubei, although Sun Chuanfang expressed in front of him that he would invite Wang back to Hubei to save face for him, he had already decided to "re-stabilize the high branches" and leaned on Wu Peifu.Now, this favor should naturally be given to Zhang Yunming. Sun Chuanfang hurried to Jiaxing and invited Zhang Yunming, who was on the front line in Liyang, to Jiaxing, and the two had a secret talk. Sun Chuanfang spoke first. "Is Marshal Wu okay? I'm thinking about him." "Okay, okay!" Zhang Yunming said, "When I came from Hubei, Yushuai often asked you." Sun Chuanfang laughed secretly: "He asked me? When I was trapped in southern Zhejiang, no one asked me!" But he still said, "Do you know why I invited you here?" "War in Shanghai." Zhang Yunming said: "Coordinate how to fight." "That's one of them." Sun Chuanfang said: "You have a 'disease', and I let you come to Jiaxing to treat your illness." "I..." Zhang Yunming was surprised. "I'm in good health!" "You have a mental illness." Sun Chuanfang said: "A sick person is weak in health; weak in health, he will be weak in battle. Therefore, your troops are always on the front line of Liyang, unable to advance." "General Sun." Zhang Yunming Puzzled, he said: "If you have any advice, please speak up, Yun Ming will definitely obey." "It's not for advice, just to give you a message." Sun Chuanfang said: "As far as I know, after Governor Qi took Shanghai, he wanted to give Shanghai to the veteran brigade commander Gong Bangduo. However, Zhu Xi, the commander of the 19th Division, did not promise……" "This matter has nothing to do with me." Zhang Yunming pretended to be an "outsider" and said: "Let me come east. It's just for aid. I don't ask who will Shanghai belong to after the victory of the war." "Shanghai after the victory will neither belong to the palace nor Zhu, who do you guess?" Sun Chuanfang knew that Zhang Yunming was lying. "Return to Qi Fu Wan?" Sun Chuanfang shook his head. "Who will it belong to?" Zhang Yunming asked. "It's yours!" Sun Chuanfang said secretly and airily. "To me?" Zhang Yunming pretended to be alarmed - coming from Hubei to the east, Zhang Yunming already had ambitions to take possession of Shanghai, but Wu Peifu didn't make it clear, and he couldn't be blatant.When he arrived in Zhilei, Jiangsu, he discovered that Qi Xieyuan was ambitious. Gong Bangduo, Zhu Xi and others had turned against each other for the fat meat of Shanghai. He was thinking, "Can we do it?" With such an attitude, he was naturally delighted. Sun Chuanfang smiled. "Sensible people don't talk foolishly. Why don't you come all the way from Hubei because of this piece of meat? Don't worry, once you win, I'll tell Governor Qi that you just drive the team into Shanghai." After a pause, he said, "It's better if you can enter Shanghai first, so that you don't have to change defenses when you enter and exit later." Zhang Yunming and Sun Chuanfang had no close contacts, but both were Wu Peifu's confidantes.This point, do not kiss or kiss.After Sun Chuanfang occupied Zhejiang, Zhang Yunming was also very clear about the impact on Shanghai.Originally, he wanted to ask Sun to help him, but should he come to the door to intercede, or ask Wu Peifu to show it? It has not been decided yet.Now, Sun Chuanfang took the initiative to send love, and Zhang Yunming was naturally grateful.He hurriedly said: "On that day, Yun Ming would like to be General Sun's 'supply station'." "Bribe me?" Sun Chuanfang laughed. "You and I are both Yushuai's people, why are you being polite! Go back and make arrangements, leave Liyang, and enter Shanghai first!?" du8.com copyright "After the victory, I will invite General Sun to the best restaurant in Shanghai!" Zhang Yunming made a big wish when he left. With "hope" in Zhang Yunming's heart, he fought bravely. He personally participated in the battle on the front line of Liuhe, and took the posture of attacking Wusong Fortress to seize Shanghai. Lu Yongxiang, who guards Shanghai, has persisted for more than 30 days.Afterwards, the war became increasingly tense, gradually unable to support, and there were no more reinforcements to go to the front line.At this time, Lu Yongxiang suddenly had an evil idea, wanting to release a batch of chlorine bombs to save the war.As a result, he was secretly resisted by his general and artillery regiment commander Ma Baoheng. Under the pincer attack of Sun Chuanfang and Qi Xieyuan, Lu Yongxiang saw that the situation was very critical, and the Anhui Feng reinforcements were far away from the water and could not quench their thirst, so they were forced to go to the field on October 13th.He Fenglin, Ma Leshan, Ma Honglie, Zhang Zaiyang, Zang Zhiping, Yang Huazhao and others resigned at the same time. Shanghai was maintained by Ma Baoheng, Lu Yongxiang's new commander of the Songhu Gendarmerie.Ma Baoheng sent a telegram to Sun Chuanfang and Qi Xieyuan that night, telling Hu Yongxiang to step down and ask for a ceasefire on the front lines.The next day, Sun Chuanfang sent Li Baozhang, the head of his guard, to Shanghai to discuss the takeover of Shanghai and the integration of the army.That night, Sun Chuanfang, Zhang Yunming, and Xie Hongxun all entered Shanghai.After negotiating with Sun Chuanfang and Qi Xieyuan, sure enough, Zhang Yunming was appointed as the military envoy and garrison commander of Shanghai. Qi Xieyuan, who was willing to risk the world's disgrace to launch this war, fought for more than 40 days and suffered heavy losses. In the end, he failed to get the slightest benefit. He felt "regret"! Sun Chuanfang was different. The troops were incorporated into: Zheng Junyan was the commander of the Tenth Division; Zang Zhiping's division was still under the Fourth Division, with Xie Hongxun as the division commander; Yang Huazhao's division was organized into a mixed brigade.Yang Genghe was the brigade commander; Chen Yi was still the commander of the first division; Zhou Fengqi was still the commander of the third division.These troops are under the command of Sun Chuanfang. Seven days later, that is, on October 20, in order to reward Sun Chuanfang for his contribution to Zhejiang and Shanghai, Cao Kun appointed Sun Chuanfang as the tour envoy of Fujian and Zhejiang and the supervisor of Zhejiang military affairs, and at the same time awarded the title of General Kewei. The 40-year-old Sun Chuanfang was very proud. He looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh of relief—it was time to breathe: he left Fujian in embarrassment and entered Zhejiang in embarrassment. He didn’t even know what to eat at noon after eating. , Surprisingly, without encountering major resistance, they drove straight in, took the territory of Zhejiang, and won Shanghai.After Lu Yongxiang left the field, Sun recruited about 5 of his divisions as a winner. He was really full of ambition! As soon as the awards and appointments from the Beijing government arrived, he held a grand meeting in Hangzhou to celebrate! He looked up to the sky and screamed: "God help me!"
