Chapter 31 Jinan

As expected, it was a battle to solve the Shandong issue. Wang Ziqi spent all his capital. Three armies rushed towards Changqing in a mighty manner. Liu Jingxiao happened to be in Changqing County. He was surrounded by only Chen Ce's brigade's brigade and a group of regiments. When he saw the strength comparison, the Liu army had only more than 5,000, while Wang Jun claimed to have 200,000, but in fact there were at least 30,000 to 40,000 people. So Commander Liu prepared to apply oil to the soles of his feet and then kill him and shoot him back.

However, before Liu Jingxiao retreated, there had been any changes in the provincial army. The provincial army general Mao Yutian, the old Mr. Mao who "I must never betray the governor of the king", led his troops to announce the uprising in front of the formation.

Liu Jingxiao didn't believe it yet. At this time, Ding Ning's cavalry returned: "What kind of troops is that... it would be strange if you don't revolt..."

Only then did Liu Jingxiao personally go to take over the troops. It was indeed a very strong army. All the rogues and scoundrels were recruited. It was a 80,000 unit that was stronger than the peasants.

Of course, that's just a claim. Mao Yutian reported that he had 20,000 yuan during the uprising. As a result, Liu Jingxiao only tested 8,000 yuan at a time, and then washed it with the standards of ordinary troops. As a result, Mr. Mao's soldiers were so successful, with only more than 2,000 people left.

However, this extremely loyal Mr. Mao led his troops to revolt, which did play a crucial role in the battlefield. Liu Jingxiao led his troops to pass through Mao Yutian's left wing, and then punched him directly in the abdomen of the Fifth Division.

Duke Wang was very knowledgeable about the use of the Fifth Division, the basic unit. Half of the division had to stay in Jinan to protect him. Most of the troops on the front line had to bear a major blow and rebuilt. Moreover, this division was also used as a general reserve team and would never be used unless it was absolutely necessary. As a result, the entire division was defeated by Liu Jingxiao's fierce attack while being wary. Then it was Hong Bin's turn to be beaten.

This breastplate cavalry regiment actually had no breastplate cavalry. Liu Jingxiao was wiped out once when the cavalry was on the city wall. After reconstruction, there were no horses. However, Commander Hong had always been Yingwei. He received military pay by one person and one horse as usual. However, after going to the battlefield, there were definitely no horses. He was immediately annihilated by Liu Jingxiao's main force. However, this annihilation battle was too fast, so many war histories jumped over. Liu Jingxiao even asked loudly: "Did you annihilate a cavalry regiment in twenty minutes?"

The annihilation was too straightforward. The moment before, the commander of Hong Bin shouted: "This time I caught Liu Jingxiao, I have to kill him... We took the military salary of the governor, and we must lose our conscience..." He had changed his tone in half an hour: "Brothers... In the evil Wang Ziqi, we can't eat enough or eat warmth, and we don't even have a wife..." As soon as he saw Mr. Mao, the great hero this time, he shouted affectionately: "Old Mao... If you want to revolt, don't say a word, otherwise I will bring the troops to revolt."

All the rest were all miscellaneous fish. The two brothers Long Wenmei and Long Gongwen were still playing the striker. Long Gongwen felt that this trip was not good and advised the brother: "Brother, be careful about everything... Never let that boy Shen Ying cheat again..."

However, a few thoughtful words on Shen Yingxi asked Commander Long to pat his chest, saying that he must capture Liu Jingxiao alive, and rushed to the front with his troops. As a result, before he arrived in Changqing City, the troops behind had collapsed. At this time, the two brothers each led one and ran away. Fortunately, Liu Jingxiao's encirclement was not tight, so they two brothers directly escaped from Shandong and Henan to temporarily join Yang Linyi, but there were only six or seven hundred people left by their side. However, the Long brothers are really a famous general, such as "helping old classmates to train", "working for military banquets to capture people", and "absorbing bad youths" tricks, the troops expanded to more than three thousand people.

As for Chen Ying, he was even stronger. When he set out, there were only more than 4,000 people. Brother Shen ran wildly without a single shot. Liu Jingxiao was really out of reach and only captured more than 3,000 prisoners under him. But when he rushed out of Shandong, passed through Hebei and then went to Anhui to join the giant gangster Han Zhiguo on the Huai River, he claimed that there were still 4,000 people.

It’s a pity that General Shen, who had experienced such a rich and colorful experience, could only work as a small battalion commander among the bandits on Huai River at that time.

Let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s talk about the battle situation in Shandong. When Liu Jingxiao attacked, various troops of the 17th Division also surrounded him, especially Xiao Rulang’s Brigade, who rushed to make contributions because of the last private expansion. This time, he rushed to make a contribution and rushed to the extreme and captured tens of thousands of people at once.

The king was thinking that the front line was fighting was fine, and Ding Ning's cavalry had already broken into Jinan City. Liu Jingxiao thought that Jinan's siege would be a fierce battle, but Ding Ning quickly occupied Jinan Railway Station without much effort.

At this time, the King of Duke was in a state of chaos. Although he could not abandon the position of Duke Lu, it would not be a big deal if Jinan City was lost, but the sky should not be the earth should not be the earth, and Ding Ning should not have occupied the Jinan Railway Station!

Wang Ziqi is supported by traditional Chinese virtues. He admires the first-principles of cash and jewelry and real estate investment. He turns a blind eye to the evil ways of banks coming from the West. Therefore, he is so honest that he has no other deposit except for hundreds of large and small real estate properties and millions of cash in Jinan City.

However, Wang Ziqi also knew that he was not far from stepping down, so he quickly plundered money and sold real estate. However, the market is currently sluggish and it is not easy to transfer real estate. Wang Ziqi is famous for plundering incompetence. He could only transfer the proceeds from years of plundering to a pair of trains at Jinan Railway Station, ready to go to Beijing to complain about Liu Jingxiao's illegal behavior at any time.

Unexpectedly, Ding Ning's cavalry came so fast. Wang Ziqi was about to lead the troops to fight back, but when he thought that he was precious, he still needed to retain his useful body to continue fighting with evil people like Liu Jingxiao. In addition, the loss of the train completely destroyed Wang Ziqi's confidence, so Wang Ziqi changed into the farmer's clothes that had been prepared long ago, turned around and jumped to the big cart that had been prepared long ago.

All the tools for escape were prepared. Wang Ziqi was indeed the governor of a province. He was extremely demeanor and could let go of anything. He ignored the millions of property and went straight to Beijing to tell the former Prime Minister Duan about Liu Jingxiao's all kinds of evil. Anyway, he had purchased several real estate in Shanghai, which was worth at least 30,000 to four million yuan. There was no need to worry about the rest of his life.

However, the remaining troops of the Fifth Division, which was left behind in Jinan, were about to fight a counterattack to retake the railway station, but at this time, they found that the Duke Wang, who kept saying "Swearing and living with Jinan... and living with Shandong... and fighting with Liu Jingxiao until the last moment...", had mysteriously disappeared. The morale of the army immediately collapsed and sent representatives to the railway station to demand surrender to Ding Ning.

"The biggest crisis in life is the enlightenment of the entire army." Ding Ning was frustrated by the counterattack of the Fifth Division, but the other party surrendered inexplicably. Then Ding Ning's subordinates discovered Wang Ziqi's lifeline train at the train station.

Ding Ning's troops were not the bandits under Yang Linyi's command. Ding Ning quickly arrived at the scene and sent troops to protect him. She had no intention of greed. She had climbed to the highest power core of the military group Liu Jingxiao. Her future was always associated with the fate of this military group, not to mention that Shandong was nominally her sister.

However, the solution to the Shandong issue in one battle is indeed a solution to the first battle!

At this time, Liu Jingxiao was ecstatic. Four years ago, Liu Jingxiao was just a down-and-out soldier. Who would have thought that four years later, he would be able to take charge of a province?

But before entering Jinan City, Liu Jingxiao had already added a bunch of lawyer letters, all of which were "...continue to repay debts to our company... the account is..." Wang Ziqi was incompetent and could only borrow usury everywhere. Especially after the war with Liu Jingxiao, he borrowed 220,000 yuan in public debts in one breath.

However, Wang Ziqi is indeed incompetent in financial management. Liu Jingxiao estimated that he would stop at sea, and then with the three words "Liu Jingxiao" and tens of thousands of soldiers in the 17th Division behind him, he could borrow 60,000 to 70,000 yuan. However, according to Section Chief Xiong's report, the 22 million yuan government bond was actually obtained, which is too cheap!

However, these guys borrowed money, Chen Xianqiao roughly estimated that Wang Ziqi owed at least 20 to 30 million yuan in foreign debts, which is not considered an internal debt of at least 10 million yuan, but Liu Jingxiao's idea was different: "It is absolutely impossible to lend money to Wang Ziqi to beat me, and then ask me to repay the money..."

One of the lawyers' letters was unprecedentedly tough: "Please return Shandong Province to my client immediately... Please transfer all the proceeds obtained in Shandong Province to my client immediately... All the consequences arising from this will be responsible for Liu Jingxiao..."

Others just wanted money, but this guy actually wanted to get a territory in Shandong. Liu Jingxiao thought to himself: "Is this man crazy? The territory we have built with great effort is not so easy to give it to others... Besides, our family has to enjoy it..."

He looked at the name of the party involved carefully: "Zhu Qinghai?" and seemed to have some impression. Finally, after thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that this person was a miracle in the Republican judicial circle. This guy kept appealing in courts at all levels, and he didn't know how many lawyers he raised.

That was a big joke when the Republic was founded. When the Restoration Army raised its troops, it was still fighting against the banner of "expressing the Tartars, rebelling against the Jin and restoring the Ming Dynasty" that had been under the banner of nearly a hundred years. Zhu Haiqing's ancestors happened to be the former Ming royal family and was a wealthy man in Southeast Asia at that time. This slogan was most in line with his wishes.

It just so happened that the Restoration Army was in urgent need of military pay, and the two sides were in a match. In order to win over venture capital from Nanyang, Lin Siyuan promised to reorganize the "Restoration Army" joint-stock company into the "Ming Dynasty Royal Family" private enterprise. The blank checks issued were even more attractive: "The king of the world may choose three provinces as kings, and choose one of the two..."

It is just history that privatization of joint-stock companies is a historical reversal and is often doomed to fail. After Lin Siyuan's death, the "Luan Yijun" joint-stock company immediately transformed into a "Republic" group company.

This group company has always been loosely operated. The head office even had to ask grandpa to sue his grandmother for even charging management fees. As for the subsidiaries of various provinces, they even had their butts on their heads. In short, the great cause of restoration and the large amount of cash money thrown in were gone. The Zhu family was not willing to suffer this secret loss. They sued the government every year and struggled endlessly.

By Zhu Qinghai's generation, the central government of the Republic also thought about solving this problem. Anyway, it was only about 100,000 taels of silver at that time, and the compensation was at the price. Unexpectedly, Zhu Qinghai, the lion, spoke up, almost fainted from anger: "At that time, the founding father promised my family three provinces to be kings. One province earned tens of millions per year, and three provinces were 30 million a year. It has been 83 years since then... It is 2.5 billion yuan in total, plus the cost of losing interest and collateral in previous years... The total amount is 10 billion yuan..."

One hundred billion yuan? Even if you sell your country, you can’t raise so much money!

Moreover, Zhu Qinghai was a stubborn man and refused to lose a penny. As a result, the matter was put on hold, but the Zhu family was unwilling to put it aside. Mu Tiehan learned Western laws and set up the Supreme Court. Zhu Qinghai's clan went to courts at all levels to repeatedly accuse, not knowing how many lawyers he raised.

Fortunately, his family has the skills to operate these generations and has worked together with Taiwan Xiao Diji in Nanyang. With the Xiao family fleet in the back guard, any business is not a huge profit, but it can withstand the constant struggle. However, before the governors and guards of various provinces were called to take office, they had to receive a letter from lawyers.

Of course, there is also a secret that is rarely known to outsiders. Back then, Lin Siyuan was a leather bag company, and he made a fuss to make a fortune. How could a wealthy businessman in Southeast Asia believe that you have the ability to repay and finally paid the collateral?

This collateral is one of the women that Liu Jingxiao admires most in his life. Lin Siyuan's beloved daughter Lin Ziyin, and Liu Jingxiao called him "Mr. Ziyin". In fact, Lin Ziyin was sent to Nanyang as a hostage. It is said that the young head of the Zhu family's generation named Zhu Wande came to be very obsessed with Lin Ziyin and insisted on "willing to be with Ziyin for the rest of his life." Unfortunately, the husband had a love affair and had no intention. After Lin Siyuan's death, Lin Ziyin escaped from the Zhu family and traveled alone to the Restoration Army. It happened that the general managers of several subsidiaries were arguing. Mr. Ziyin turned the tide at the meeting, and the Republic was founded. This was an old Republic story that Liu Jingxiao applauded.

However, the collateral ran away privately, and Zhu Wande could only see through Qiushui. In the future, he was depressed and simply abandoned literature and practiced martial arts. He claimed that he could kill 168 people with a 12-pound hook, and he could open a bow of twelve stones. It was a pity that this eldest son Zhu was beaten to save Mei for six or seven miles by two lands, and blood flowed into a river...

However, before Zhu Wande died, he also asked the Republican government to compensate for "mortgage and accommodation costs, search costs after private escape, and mental loss costs..." Since this is the case, the descendants of the Zhu family fought a lawsuit.

After Liu Jingxiao thought it through, he immediately called Guo Junqing to discuss. All the old provincial government bonds would not be recognized, and by the way, he paid off the 5 million yuan borrowed by Xu Zhen. Even if the interest rate is good, Xu Zhen would notify Xu Zhen a day in advance. I believe Xu Zhen would make a big profit from it. As for those who asked for Shandong, Liu Jingxiao raised his pen and gave a polite reply: "According to your calculation method, if you earn tens of millions per year, we will charge a small storage fee of 10% for a total of 90 million yuan... In addition, Shandong's annual fixed asset investment is calculated... The above is 750 million yuan in total... Please hand it over to us quickly..."
