Chapter 18 Chapter 24 Nantong Visits the Champion

Shanghai.Joffre Road.Asia Hotel. In a luxurious restaurant, the lights are feasting and the laughter is lively.More than forty men and women in strange costumes held a welcome banquet for Xu Shuzheng's return from overseas inspections.They are both teachers and students of the former Beijing Zhengzhi Middle School. Yesterday--December 11, 1925, Xu Shuzheng arrived in Shanghai on the Japanese passenger ship "Dongfang".When I was leaving the pier, I happened to meet Yao Shujie who was the dean of Zhengzhi Middle School.Uncle Yao, in a long gown and top hat, bowed deeply to him, and called "Principal Xu" rather sentimentally.Xu Shuzheng held his hand: "Uncle, Shuzheng is sorry for everyone. How could I have thought that things have been so unsatisfactory in the past few years..."

"Principal," Yao Shujie said, "there is no need to talk about the past. It is a great fortune to meet you this time. This is not a place to talk freely. I know that you will not leave Shanghai in three or two days. So, tomorrow, I will invite friends from Zhengzhi, Meet you at the Joffre Road Asian Hotel. What do you think? Shanghai is not a peaceful world, so we can only find our own place." "Say hello to all Zhengzhi colleagues first! Tomorrow we will meet in Asia on time." After finishing speaking, the two left in a hurry. Uncle Yao, approaching his sixtieth year, was a first-class master of Chinese studies in China at that time.In the end, due to the inconsistency with the current situation, he became even more arrogant.As early as he lived in Shanghai with a state of indifference to the world.He originally wanted to close the door to seek peace and be pampered, but he didn't think of "the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop", the factions are constantly fighting, and "heroes" from all walks of life often come to invite him, so that he has no place to rest, no time to rest.Thin and weak, irritable and irritable, he simply changed his attire and drifted away, not wanting to meet Xu Shuzheng on the pier.In the past, they not only worked together, but also talked very speculatively, and they had long been confidants.Therefore, when we saw each other today, we set a date for the banquet without any negotiation.

Although Xu Shuzheng is now wandering, he has had a glorious time in his life after all, and founding Zhengzhi Middle School is something he has been complacent about all his life-- At the beginning, when Yuan Shikai made the "Three Long Cases" on charges, he added another charge to Xu Shuzheng, saying that he had overstated 400,000 silver dollars when he ordered foreign arms, so he was removed from the post of Deputy Minister of the Army.In fact, this is not the case. In the year before the "Three Long Cases", that is, in the spring of 1914, Xu Shuzheng bought a batch of ordnance equipment made in the United States. The Americans gave him a rebate of 80,000 to 90,000 silver dollars, which was approved by Yuan Shikai. .At that time, Xu Shuzheng was not short of money and wanted to cultivate cronies, so he used it to set up a Zhengzhi Middle School in Beijing, and hired famous domestic scholars such as Yao Shujie, Yao Zhongshi, Lin Qinnan, and Ma Tongbo. and others to teach; and also invited some German and French teachers to offer German and French courses.Yuan Shikai also recognized this matter.It's just that when Yuan Shikai wanted to add crimes to Xu Shuzheng, he used it as an excuse! Xu Shuzheng hated Yuan Shikai's inferior approach very much.

Xu Shuzheng did not affect the running of the school because of his ups and downs.He is the principal, and he always regards school affairs as his important work item.Especially after he was dismissed from the position of Deputy Minister of the Army, he kept a low profile and seized Zhengzhi Middle School in an attempt to cultivate his descendants and enrich his wings so that he could make a comeback in the future... Everyone pushed Xu Shuzheng to be the chief, but Xu Shuzheng refused to resign. "Most of you are elders, Shuzheng must never dare to respect you!" Yao Zhongshi, with a white beard and a beautiful beard, said emotionally: "Principal, you treat us

The old man's respect has already made us excited.Remember when we started our school, Qin Nan and I had poor eyesight and needed help during class.Every time I entered the classroom, I realized that the person who helped you was you, the principal! Haha, it was very disturbing, because I often confused the lectures. "Yao Shujie also said: "Sometimes, I also found the principal sitting next to the students, respectfully.Listen to my class!" Xu Shuzheng said: "My respect for you is superficial. You are today's famous scholars and masters in the academic circle. It is my wish to be able to listen to the teachings face to face. How dare I miss this opportunity!" We respect it." A teacher named Wu Pijiang said: "Principal, I have never forgotten Xingchunju" and Bianyifang.You always accompany us to restaurants every Wednesday night, talking freely from all over the world.What kind of affection is that!"

Xu Shuzheng smiled, held his hand, and said, "Pi Lao, I always remember that you often yawn every night at 8 o'clock. And me..." "That's my problem, and I haven't changed it so far. I like to get up early and go to bed early. So, no matter what other people are talking about, as long as it is 8 o'clock, you must send a car to take me home!" "I'm afraid you'll get drunk and sleep in Yihong Courtyard!" "Thinking about it now, I really regret it. I didn't learn many high-spirited and anecdotal stories!" Yao Shujie said: "Principal, it is a pity that Lin Qinnan is not in Shanghai today. It is considered that there is one less person planting dogwood."

Xu Shuzheng said: I haven't seen Qin Lao for a long time. He is really an elder with great literary talents. " "Did you know that when he went south from Beijing and passed by your hometown Xuzhou in the early years, he naturally thought of you and wrote a poem!" "I've heard of it too." Xu Shuzheng said, "It's just that I haven't read it yet." "Maybe, might as well".Yao Shujie said: "I remember it. I will record it respectfully now." As he said, he leaned on the desk and recorded a poem written by Lin Qinnan and Xu Shaozheng:

From the window of the car, you can look across the plains, and the warmth and coldness are close to the autumn wheat; the infinite nostalgia of Gengshen, the green mountains have experienced Xuzhou. Yao Shujie handed the poem to Xu Shuzheng and said, "Old Qin is worthy of being a big pen. He writes it at his fingertips, and every word is perfect!" While reading the poems, Xu Shuzheng said: "Old Lin's poems are excellent. Uncle Lao's memory is really admirable! It is rare to reappear today, and many volumes of Han books have been added to the banquet!" At the banquet, people Naturally, with the old days of Zhengzhi Middle School, recalling the past and talking about the present, I feel very grateful for Zhengzhi Middle School. Xu Shuzheng wanted to make it a school that could reflect his own thoughts.Therefore, the whole teaching is relatively conservative and limited by etiquette.He believes that young students are "unsettled in blood and easy to go astray." Outside of class, he often gathers teachers and students to give them instructions, and always encourages them to "use the way of self-denial to maintain themselves", "if everyone can practice the way of self-denial, self-government If I know what I should do, I should do it, and if I know what I should avoid, then I can cultivate myself, keep my family in order, and govern a country.” Xu Shuzheng’s point of view is very important. It seriously affected the progress of the young people in Zhengzhi Middle School, so that new trends of thought and major movements like the "May 4th" Movement failed to touch Zhengzhi students.Therefore, Beijingers at that time called Zhengzhi Middle School a "cold-blooded group" mockingly.Xu Shuzheng hated the British, and Zhengzhi Middle School never offered English classes.Instead, use German and French.

Zhengzhi Middle School unexpectedly opened military training classes and music classes, which also had a great influence in Beijing at that time.Students wrestled, boxed, practiced rifles, and sang various songs, which often attracted passers-by to gather and wait and see. In the Zhiwan War in 1920, Duan Qirui failed, Xu Shuzheng was smuggled out of Beijing from a willow box, and Zhengzhi Middle School was also managed by Zhili warlord Wang Huaiqing.From then on, the elderly Zhengzhi left one after another, arriving in Shanghai from Beijing.When we get together today, there are naturally mixed feelings of sadness and joy, laughter and sighs.Xu Shuzheng was drunk.Still ambitious, he said: "I want to restore my righteousness! I want to restore my righteousness!"

Zhengzhi colleagues also expressed: "We still return to Zhengzhi! We still return to Zhengzhi!" The next day, Sun Chuanfang hurried to Xu Shuzheng's villa. People reported that "Sun Chuanfang, Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces of the Five Provinces is visiting." Xu Shuzheng was neither surprised nor excited, and just said "Please!" However, there was still a ripple in his mind: "He, at this time What are you looking for?" Sun Chuanfang was visiting secretly, and only brought a guard with him, and asked him to stop outside the door.He himself, wearing a top hat and gold-rimmed glasses, looked like a pedant.When he shook hands with Xu Shuzheng, he said humorously, "Envoy, you didn't expect me to come!"

Xu Shuzheng also jokingly said: "I didn't expect you not to come, but I just thought you came late." "What? You just arrived in Shanghai yesterday, and I came to worship today, so it's too late?!" "I didn't arrive in Shanghai yesterday, but the day before yesterday!" "I only heard about your arrival yesterday." Sun Chuanfang smiled: "Let's gossip less, we have important matters to discuss." The two walked into the living room, sat down opposite each other, and someone offered tea.Sun Chuanfang took off his glasses and put them in his hat, put the hat on the table, and said straight to the point: "Youzheng, I have to ask you first: Sun Xinyuan took over Lu Yongxiang's territory; Lu Yongxiang belongs to Boss Duan and you. Sorry boss and you. Can you let it go?" Xu Shuzheng said: "I have to ask you something first, you said I'm sorry for the boss and me, is it true or social?" "Ah?!" "Huh!" The two looked up and smiled again... "The world is not peaceful!" Sun Chuanfang said: "The boss has ruled. Although he should be in power, I am afraid that he will not play with it. I, Sun Xinyuan, will never make trouble for him, and will definitely obey his orders. But, make trouble for him There are always people. We have to take a surefire strategy. Stabilize the country." After hearing Sun Chuanfang's words, Xu Shuzheng felt that he was not hypocritical.Then he said: "General Xinyuan, I have been in China for more than a year, and my heart is not at peace. Things in China are too chaotic and difficult to manage. Trapped in the circle, it seems that everyone should control the world; jumping out of the Three Realms and looking at it, but I feel that no one can control the world. Are you right?" Sun Chuanfang slapped the table and stood up: "I knew that you must have good ideas when you come back from traveling around the world, so I came here to find you." Sun Chuanfang, a native of Licheng, Shandong Province, who was born in the Wubei Academy, joined a Fujian governor in 1924, which can be called okay.In order to stabilize the Fujian position, under the mastermind of Gao Shen Yang Wenkai and Lu Xiangting, they formed "Jinlan Brothers" with Fujian Governor Zhou Yinren.He felt that it was time to enjoy a few years of happiness in An'an.Unexpectedly, Zhou Yin was a person who only cared about power but not friendship. He felt that Sun Chuanfang had occupied his territory and divided up his interests, so he drove Sun Chuanfang out at an unknowing moment.As a result, Sun Chuanfang was almost trapped to death in the swamp area adjacent to Fujian and Zhejiang.Just when he had nowhere to go, a great battle broke out in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces between Lu Yongxiang, the warlord of the Anhui clique, and Qi Xieyuan, the governor of Jiangsu, a direct clique.Sun Chuanfang took advantage of Lu Yongxiang's danger and occupied Hangzhou in one fell swoop. The main goal of the Battle of Qilu is to fight for the interests of Shanghai.As soon as Lu Yongxiang's Hangzhou old camp was lost, he was attacked by the enemy, so he had to go to the field with electricity.As a victor, Sun Chuanfang incorporated the strength of the five divisions of the Lu Army, and the army's prestige suddenly rose. While the Battle of Qilu was unfolding in the south, the Second War of Zhifeng was unfolding in the north.Cao Kun, who bribed the election of President, originally thought that Feng Zhang would bow his head and proclaim himself a minister once the soldiers were sent out.Unexpectedly, when Feng Yuxiang returned his carbine, Cao Kun, the president bought with money, had to go out.Zhang Zuolin won a big victory.This general who was born in the green forest was not reconciled to just living outside Shanhaiguan. After winning Zhili, Beijing and Tianjin, he sent his troops south and quickly occupied Nanjing and Shanghai. Zhang Zuolin drove southward, but Sun Chuanfang's dream of "Pian'an" in Hangzhou could not be realized.He wanted to fight Zhang Zuolin, but he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him.Just when he was at a loss, the common people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai set off an upsurge of anti-Bong.It is said that "the army oppressed the people too much, searched for the fat and anointing of the people, and raped women."This climax even the Nanjing governor Yang Yuting appointed by Zhang Xin, and the Shanghai defender Xing Shilian were at a loss.Sun Chuanfang was originally a kisser, but now he doesn't, because Fengzhang has violated his interests, and he has to "defend himself".So, Sun Chuanfang sent troops to Hangzhou, and a huge anti-Bong war immediately started in the Yangtze River Delta... It should also follow Sun Chuanfang's "times come and go".When the anti-Feng war was launched on the banks of the Yangtze River, he learned that the relationship between Feng Yuxiang in the north and Fengzhang had long been cracked.So he sent his counselor and his brother Yang Wenkai to Zhangjiakou to send Feng Yuxiang a "look".Yang Wenkai's trip to the northern part of Saibei actually contributed to Sun Chuanfang and Feng Yuxiang becoming Jinlan brothers.In addition to sending a person named Duan Qishu as his representative to Hangzhou to pay homage to Sun Chuanfang, Feng Yuxiang also said solemnly to Yang Wenkai: "Xinyuan sent troops to attack the Feng army, and I am extremely in favor of it. However, judging from the current situation, it is not convenient for me to break openly with Zhang Zuolin. If Xinyuan launches an offensive against the Feng army, I will definitely make a preparation in the north to contain Feng. Army, so that they could not send troops to the south for reinforcements." Sun Chuanfang went out smoothly and quickly recovered Shanghai and Nanjing.Zhang Zuolin became angry. While moving his troops south, he still appointed his general Shi Congbin as the aftermath supervisor of Anhui Province, and Zhang Zongchang as the aftermath supervisor of Jiangsu Province.Zhang Zongchang led 5,000 White Russian troops in Beijing to obtain enough live cattle and sheep, a large amount of brandy and foreign wine, and famous cigarettes from the Fortress.It's a pity that the army was defeated like...falling.Most of Zhang Zongchang's White Russian Army died under the bayonet.In the end, the famous general Shi Congbin, who had passed through several years, also became Sun Chuanfang's captive. After all, Sun Chuanfang was born recklessly and had no ambitions, so he beheaded this gray-haired veteran.Ten years later, in 1935, Sun Chuanfang became a polished commander.When he lived in seclusion in the Buddhist forest of the British Concession in Tianjin and went to the temple to chant scriptures, he was killed by a frail woman.She is none other than Shi Jianqiao, the daughter of teacher Shi Congbin.She avenged her father.This is a later story. Sun Chuanfang won a big victory against Feng. He hurried to Xuzhou, distributed the supplies of more than 150 trains stored by Feng's army on Xuzhou Railway Station to various ministries, reorganized the army, and revived the tiger's prestige.After everything was done, he returned to Nanjing, sat in the Jiangsu Governor's Mansion, and then sent a victory telegram to the provinces.Needless to say Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Deng Ruzhuo, Governor of Jiangxi, Chen Tiaoyuan, Governor of Anhui, and Zhou Yinren, the self-proclaimed military governor of Fujian, also sent congratulatory messages, and expressed their willingness to listen to orders! After some contact activities, in the spring of 1925, Sun Chuanfang Established the "General Command of the Allied Forces of the Five Provinces" in Nanjing, calling itself the "Commander-in-Chief"... Now, Sun Chuanfang is the time to be proud of the spring breeze.He wants to cling to the Anhui Department again, and then dominate the world. Sun Chuanfang sat across from Xu Shuzheng, drinking tea day after day, raised her face once and for all to speak, but lowered her eyes and lowered her head again and again.Sun Chuanfang suddenly became conflicted: he came to Xu Shuzheng in a hurry, originally wanting to seek support from the Anhui Department.Consolidate one's territory and then expand, and then... What do you do next? When it's time to say something, you lose the ability to grasp the "property": Will you continue to support Duan in power? When will you be in power? Be the president. "If Duan Hefei becomes the president, I have to bow my head and become a minister. Do I, the commander-in-chief of half of China, surrender to Duan Qirui, who has only empty airs and no military power in his hands? It's too uneconomical." He, Sun Xinyuan, came to rule the world, so what to say, but this is his true dream.When he didn't have the southeast half of the rivers and mountains, or when he was trapped in the swamp area adjacent to Fujian and Zhejiang not long ago, he didn't have such a luxury.When they came out of Fujian, the soldiers wore short shirts. The climate in Zhejiang was much lower than that in Fujian. With an empty stomach and cold weather, Sun Chuanfang's soldiers were almost completely defeated.I once remembered that when he only thought about food, cotton clothes, and frowning, the quartermaster reported the emergency to him and asked him "what should I do?" He angrily yelled at the quartermaster: "Bastard! What should I do? I have to ask you, what? Eat me? Let me tell you, starting tomorrow, everyone has to be fed and given new clothes. It's you; or I'll cut off your head!" Now he doesn't just think about food and cotton clothes; he has a good source of income—the Allied Forces of Five Provinces, and he thinks about the world.However, now that the world is in Duan Qirui's hands, to be clear, wouldn't it mean driving him out of power.That's why Sun Chuanfang hesitated.indecision. Xu Shuzheng was clever, what did Sun Chuanfang want to do? Why did he come to visit? His eyeballs moved around a few times, and he could see clearly.What's more, Sun Chuanfang showed his feet as soon as he entered the door--Sun Chuanfang said to him when he saw him: "The boss is in power. Although he should be in power, I am afraid that he will not be able to play it." Xu Shuzheng was unhappy at that time: " Why can't you play around? You, Sun Xinyuan, can play well?!" Now seeing Sun Chuanfang like this again, I understand better: "Sun Xinyuan wants to be a bitch, and also wants to have a chastity monument! It's too delusional." Xu Shuzheng held a teacup but didn't drink it, smiled lightly and said, "General Xinyuan, I want to ask you a question: Who do you say is a hero in today's world?" Sun Chuanfang was startled, thinking: "Why do you ask this? ?” He blinked and said, “Of course it’s Hefei. You see, Yuan Xiangcheng needless to say, how about Li Songqing, Feng Huafu, Xu Buwu, Cao Zhongshan... are not masters.” talent. Hefei, only Hefei." Xu Shuzheng co-authored and said: "The general is only half right." "Half? How to say?" Sun Chuanfang was puzzled. "In today's world, there are two heroes." Xu Shuzheng said: "Hefei and Xin Yuan'er!" Sun Chuanfang felt hot in his heart.He was so happy that even his lips trembled: "Someone in the world finally knows my piece of golden fragrant jade!" However, he still said: "I am exalting Xinyuan again. How dare I compare it with the ruling! To tell the truth, one day Hefei really Facing the south has reached the extreme, I, Sun Xinyuan, will definitely be his loyal general!" Xu Shuzheng smiled.I thought to myself: "Although Duan Qirui is not a personal king and landlord material, your Sun Chuanfang will never be someone else's loyal minister and filial son. It's just a one-inch, that's all for a while." However, he still said: "The people in the world, the people in the world The world is dominated by people. It is not necessarily not a king, and no one is necessarily a natural king. A person with morality and a person who can govern the country well will always win the support of the people." Sun Chuanfang saw that Xu Shuzheng was not very enthusiastic about him, so he sensitively thought about the seizure of Lu Yongxiang's Hangzhou, and hurriedly changed the subject, saying: "Youzheng, one day, I will have to work for your master to do something for me. " "What's the matter?" Xu Shuzheng asked. "I'm going to have a family dinner. Please Lu Zijia, and I have to apologize to him face to face." "It's all over, so don't mention him anymore." Xu Shuzheng said: "Although Zijia's life is not good, I don't think he will care about you. Besides, you are not bad for Hefei. We still regard you as Friends respect." "I, Sun Xinyuan, had no choice but to choose that path." Sun Chuanfang said: "I remember, I will definitely repay his debt of kindness in the future, and I have to live with Lao Lu." Xu Shuzheng knew that Sun Chuanfang was a volatile person, one day he would talk wildly, but the next day he would turn his face and deny anyone.Can't take his words seriously.So, he shook his head and said: "Don't mention this matter again. There are so many major issues in front of us, there is no time to always turn over the past. You are here today, and I just want to discuss an urgent matter with you. Woolen cloth." "what's the matter?" "I want to invite someone to come out and preside over the big government!" "Hey, that's why I came to you!" Sun Chuanfang followed suit. "Oh?! Have you figured it out?" "Have!" "Who?" "Nantong Zhang Jizi. What do you think?" "Zhang Jian?!" Xu Shuzheng lifted his spirits -- Xu Shuzheng has always regarded Zhang Jian as his teacher and respected him very much.When he traveled around Europe, he thought of this person many times, felt that he had the talent for governing the country, and wanted to find an opportunity to clear him up to take up the big post.Now that Sun Chuanfang brought up this matter, he is naturally full of joy. "General Xinyuan, you think that this person can take on great responsibilities. I'm afraid he won't come out!" "I think he will." Sun Chuanfang said: "How can I wrong the president? Not long ago, he How about going to Hangzhou to see me?" "Talk about it?" "No." "..." Xu Shuzheng shook his head lightly. Sun Chuanfang is called a direct general, but half of his heart is actually inclined to Feng Zhang outside Shanhaiguan.After he dominated Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Cao Cao in the north was defeated, and he was driven south by Zhang Chang, and the fortress that violated him was broken.However, at the beginning, Mian Naibiao was determined to make a ticket, and the moon was traced to the firefly: Yixing and the Songjiang line of defense were strengthened in the next day, and Zhang Zhang was not allowed to attack again.At this moment, Zhang Jian rushed to Jizhou. Zhang Jian was the number one scholar in liberal arts in the former Qing Dynasty. He once taught the Imperial Academy to edit and write, participated in the preparatory constitutional meeting of Emperor Guangxu, and served as the vice chairman; in the first year of Xuantong, he was elected as the director of the Jiangsu Advisory Bureau.After the Revolution of 1911, he served as the chief industrial officer of the Nanjing Provisional Government, and later served as the chief agricultural and commercial chief of the Yuan Shikai government.After Yuan Shikai proclaimed himself emperor, he resigned from office and focused on local business and education.He is a celebrity who is proficient in politics, economy and culture.Now it is over seventy years old, and the temples are frost.Recently, he heard that Sun Chuanfang had strict military discipline in Zhejiang, so he came to see him. Sun Chuanfang admired his name for a long time, so he naturally treated him warmly.The two sat down opposite to each other in the small living room, and Zhang Jian said, "General Xinyuan is coming to Zhejiang, and he is deeply supported by the people of Zhejiang. I heard that the general has a "Handbook for Entering Zhejiang". I really want to open my eyes." Sun Chuanfang hurriedly ordered someone to bring the "Handbook for Entering Zhejiang", and asked Zhang Jian for "advice" repeatedly when sending it away respectfully. Zhang Jian looked at it and said: "What China's army lacks in recent years is discipline. Once the army is over, it's like a plague of locusts, wanting to kill all living creatures; and as a general, he always puts his strength first and resorts to military force. How could he know? The rise and fall of the people has always depended on the will of the people! General Xinyuan can rule the army with discipline, and the discipline is more for the sake of the people. He can be called a wise man today. I admire, admire!" --Sun Chuanfang, originally a person who is not proficient in writing, has believed in force for half his life.The defeat in Fujian made him develop a little martial art skills.This "Handbook for Entering Zhejiang" was actually forced out.The gist of the handbook generally states that they were forced out of Fujian by Zhou Yinren and came to Zhejiang, they must be strictly disciplined and never commit any crimes.For this reason, several disciplines have been established, and those who violate them should be dealt with.Whether camping for the night or resting and eating, the company and battalion commanders read aloud.Sometimes during the march, the officers read and the soldiers followed suit.It has a corresponding restraint effect on the troops.In fact, Sun Chuanfang was just embellishing, and he wanted to let the whole army know that Fujian could not go back, and Zhejiang wanted to become the base camp.If we don't observe discipline like this, the elders in Zhejiang may not necessarily support our army! Zhang Jian is also a little bit fooled. "Mr. Zhang Ji (Zhang Jian's name is Jizhi) congratulates me! Xinyuan is also learning how to walk. Who can be born without a mother, who can not eat grains, and where did the food and clothing come from? How can the leader of the army not think about it?" He said He looked up and smiled, and said, "You call. I'll call. Ji Lao's hometown is also full of wars. I don't know how the people are doing now?" Zhang Jian sighed and said, "Zhang Yuting (Zuo Lin) lacks self-knowledge too much. The life experience of that green forest has been discredited; now, wearing the gauze hat of the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces and controlling half the sky in Beiyang, he just doesn't want to think about the common people. He stretched out his hand to Jiangnan again. What do you think people from Jiangnan say about them?" "What do you say?" "You say they are fierce tigers!" Zhang Jian sighed, "When it is said that Fengjun is coming, even the crying children dare not make a sound." Sun Chuanfang was excited, and he said brazenly: "This kind of treason, I want to punish the evil! You are always a sun-like figure in Jiangsu, Shanghai and Zhejiang, and I have to ask you to help me!" I don’t want to ask about government affairs. But, I’m always a member of the Chinese nation, how can I watch the people being humiliated and remain indifferent! I’m old, and I’m just a commoner. You young and vigorous generals!" "When Xinyuan raised his troops, he only hoped that Elder Ji could lead the famous gentry from Suhu to speak for me, and I was satisfied." ... Now, Sun Chuanfang has five provinces. He is grateful to Zhang Jian and thinks Zhang Jian is great.Xu Shuzheng remained silent, while Sun Chuanfang was elated: "Zhang Jizhi was able to go to Hangzhou to encourage me to rebel, and I won by listening to his words. This old man has vision. If he is allowed to be the president and I am under his command, then there will be good things ." "Youzheng, don't be hesitant. I think this old man must be the most important person in the world!" Sun Chuanfang made up his mind, and he wanted to invite Zhang Jian out. "Zhang Ji's old experience is too much." Xu Shuzheng said: "The current situation is not stable, can he come out?" Xu Shuzheng also wanted Zhang Jian to come out to maintain the overall situation, always afraid that he would not do it. Sun Chuanfang blinked and said for a long time, "Yizheng. I want to ask you something." "What?" "You are a learned person, and you think more carefully than I do. I see that you are so hesitant, are you afraid that Hefei will not agree?" "I don't have this idea." Xu Shuzheng said: "In this case, as long as you explain your words, Mr. Duan will always agree. At the beginning, he was not good to Huang Pi, and the President could let him go. Besides, he still has all the respect for Mr. Zhang Ji? " "It's easy to handle, there is no need to turn around." Sun Chuanfang said: "To be honest, when I came to you, I wanted you to help me and help me become the president! I don't think it is better than Cao Laosan Bad job. Now that I think about it, Zhang Jilao is much better than me, so it's better for him to come out." Xu Shuzheng said: "Well, if you are sincere, you will accompany me, or I will accompany you, and we will go to Nantong tomorrow!" "Three visits to the thatched cottage!" Sun Chuanfang said. "It's a deal!" Xu Shuzheng nodded.
