Someone next to him quickly dissuaded: "Mr. Governor, don't take risks!"

Ding Jing turned his head to look at Zhang Yilong and asked, "This time you have made your first contribution. If this local force organization is effective, I will let Uncle Liu promote your official position at that time..."

Zhang Yilong has always been famous for his public and private considerations. Before he came to report the news, he had thought about the interests and concerns among them: If Liu Jingxiao won, it would be beneficial to me, the chief of staff of the brigade, and maybe there would be some fat and flaws to take the opportunity to make up for it. If Liu Jingxiao failed, his status would be turned into wuxia. Moreover, when he fought with Li Dingyuan's army, there were many soldiers who died under his command. It was considered a grudge. I am afraid that his life would be in danger.

Now that he heard Ding Jing say this, his mind suddenly became alive. He bowed and said, "Don't worry, Lord Governor, this area is my hometown, and people are familiar with the land..."

About two hours later, the Zhijun brigade was still marching in the mountains, searching for the Forward Battalion at the forefront and moving forward. Suddenly, the "Bang! Bang! Bang!" row of guns sprinkled down at the forefront's strengthening squad. The formation suddenly became sparse, and there was a lot of mixed feelings on the ground. The remaining survivors quickly resisted on the spot.

However, the Zhi army was indeed an elite army. In just two minutes, it had organized a decent attack, shooting at the hills occupied by the Fu Army with dense platoons, and then an enhanced platoon immediately launched an attack.

The Zhi army was neatly formed and was moving very fast. It quickly ruled out the resistance to rush to the mountain. Unexpectedly, a dense sound of pistols was poured down at this time. The Zhi army was unprepared for a while, and more than ten people were killed or injured in the rain of bullets, and they were forced to retreat.

However, at this time, the Zhi army had launched artillery bombardment, and the troops detoured from both wings. Ding Jing at least knew some military affairs and immediately ordered: "Retreat quickly and meet Chief of Staff Zhang and the security team..."

Zhang Yilong volunteered to gather security forces and police from nearby places, while Ding Jing led his guards and the self-defense force of Zhonggong Town to ambush the Zhijun vanguard. However, when he retreated, although the Zhijun was killed or injured more than 30 times, Ding Jing also suffered more than ten casualties. Fortunately, not many people were given heavy lottery and the wounded could carry them down.

In addition, Ding Jing also sent someone to the post office to report to Guo Junqing who was staying in Jinan. He was afraid that the telegram line would be destroyed by Zhijun spies, so he sent someone to report to Jinan.

Guo Junqing was surprised to get the news. She couldn't help but ask to herself: "Will the story of both of them fall into each other again within a day?"

The so-called two people fell into each other within a day, which refers to the story of Tan Yan and Yi Hengzhao during the Hunan Civil War. Yi Hengzhao joined forces to capture Tan Yan's hometown Hengyang. The celebration banquet was still being held. Unexpectedly, his old nest was also destroyed by Zhu Yaohua, a rebel close to Tan Yan.

The Zhi army had very strong combat effectiveness. Ding Jing racked his efforts and organized eight lines of defense along the road, but the Zhi army had very strong combat effectiveness. The troops Ding Jing could assemble were all local troops, and the longest-lasting defense line was only an hour.

However, Ding Jing's troops were defeated but not defeated, and there were more and more troops gathered. At the beginning, there were only more than 60 people. When they arrived at the eighth line of defense, in addition to the collapse and more than 300 casualties, there were more than 1,000 troops composed of security teams, police, self-defense teams and a small number of regular troops, which made Cheng Yune, the commander-in-chief of the Zhi Army, jumped in a hurry. He was now driving hundreds of kilometers in Liu Jingxiao's hinterland.

Fortunately, Liu Jingxiao's main force went south, and he was a local from Shandong, so he only found some remote paths to spend it. Finally, he rushed to Jinan, but Ding Jing's resistance greatly reduced his speed.

However, Guo Junqing's situation is almost no different from that in Nanjing City. There are no defenses outside Jinan City, and there are almost no avail plan in the city, with no other troops except an infantry regiment.

A cadre asked: "Do you ask the division commander to return to the rescue? Or wait for our army on the front line in Texas?"

Guo Junqing immediately rejected: "It's time to fight to this point, and it's time to fight for will! Once the troops in Dezhou retreat, they will collapse! Inviting the division commander to return to the rescue is an even worse strategy. Now the division commander cannot be contacted at all. Besides, as long as the division commander's troops are still there, our situation will be victorious and undefeated! We can only fight to the death!"

She immediately gathered all the troops in the city to block the south of the city, and at the same time deployed defenses on Qianfoshan and Baimashan. In the early morning of that day, the Zhishan Alliance finally defeated Ding Jing's eighth line of defense and arrived at the Baliwa line in the south of Jinan.

Nanjing City.

The celebration ceremony was still full of sorrow. Liu Jingxiao's troops were increasing in Jiangbei. It seemed that the entire Jiangbei was trapped in the enemy. From time to time, people crossed the river to talk about how Liu Jingxiao's troops were strong. In addition, everyone finally knew why there was no news about Jiangbei these days.

It turned out that Liu Jingxiao's troops were heading south quickly. Whenever they arrived, they put the post office under military control. All telegrams had to be inspected before they could be sent out. The result was that they became blind.

What really made Li Dingyuan look so sad was the two telegrams issued by the 17th Division. One was "Attack on General Jiangnan Di". The article stated that "General Jiangnan Di, who put down his weapons and retreated from the civil war, arrived at a certain place today... General Jiangnan Di admired the 17th Division for his bravery and good combat and flexible command. He said: Before we set off, we received news that the two Huai River did not have the 17th Division stationed. I thought I was ordered to attack Haizhou, and I thought that with the cannon guns supported by Shanghai, I would definitely win if I attacked Lianghuai. Who knew that after two days of leaving, I fought with the elite soldiers of Commander Liu Jingxiao. The battle was two days and two nights, very fierce... I asked for reinforcements. Unexpectedly, Li Dingyuan sacrificed our miscellaneous cards and did not see the shadow of reinforcements in the end... In this way, the entire army was gone. Finally, Jiangnan Di said in tears that he would definitely cross the river and defeat Li Dingyuan..."

Another feature is "The coalition officer blamed Li Dingyuan..." Li Dingyuan didn't even have the courage to keep watching. After ten years of hard work, all the 100,000 elite soldiers were gone.

He could only rely on the natural danger of the Yangtze River, hoping to stop Liu's army from moving south, and hope that the Shen family's Yangtze River fleet could help him, but even he himself did not believe this.

Since ancient times, defending the river must be guarding the Huai River. Waterways north of the Yangtze River are crisscrossing. The enemy can concentrate their forces to attack suddenly at any point. The Yangtze River has no danger at all. As for the Shen family, their fleet is now going down, and they are afraid that they will be welcomed by Liu Jingxiao's artillery. What's more, the Shen family has never liked that there are more river defense fortifications on the Yangtze River. Even the artillery in Jiangyin Fortress was purchased in the early years of the Republic, so this situation cannot be defended.

Sure enough, not long after, a bolt from the blue came, and Zhenjiang was lost! In this way, the Liu army completed the partition of the Yangtze River. As for Liu Jingxiao, where he got so many fleets to transport the troops across the river, the telegram just said: "Shen Family Fleet..."

The Shen family is actually the fleet of the Shen Xianqiao family, the wife of Liu Jingxiao. However, the Shen family in Sichuan often pretends to be powerful and claims to be "We are the Shen family's fleet..." This time, Liu Jingxiao had already made arrangements to let the Shen family's merchant fleet stay by the river and cross the river immediately when the troops arrive.

The Zhenjiang defenders had only two or three thousand people, and most of them were locals. They didn't expect that the Liu army would come so quickly. After a short resistance, they did not want their hometown to be affected by the war and immediately announced their surrender.

Then the bad news came one after another. The Shen family fleet carried Liu Jun across the river at many locations, but Li Dingyuan didn't understand the reason and was shocked: "What's the name of the Shen family? It was clearly they who supported us to advance north! Now they are hooking up with Liu Jingxiao? Did they set up a trap to let our 100,000 troops get in?"

At this time, everyone was able to speak freely for the celebration meeting held for Li Dingyuan. The theme was only "Sulu Peace, Southeast Cooperation". Everyone demonstrated the significance of Shandong and Jiangsu's non-aggression from many aspects such as history, geography, and reality. In particular, Mr. Mao, who came from afar, was very active in his speech. He repeatedly reviewed the traditional friendship between Liu Jingxiao and Li Dingyuan in history, and pointed out that several cooperation opinions were only Xu Zhen, who had rushed back from Shanghai overnight, and did not say a word.

Finally, the whole voted to pass 16 peace declarations, asking the two sides to stop the conflict and cease fire on the spot. Unfortunately, Liu Jingxiao's troops are constantly crossing the Yangtze River. It is said that the Ninglu Railway has fallen under the control of the 17th Division and has been completely suspended. Jiangbei is advancing towards Nantong. In Nanjing, Jiangsu Provincial currency has almost become waste paper. Everyone only knows the Shandong Provincial currency issued by Liu Jingxiao.

In this situation, the Celebration Conference was renamed the Peace Conference. On the one hand, everyone quickly burned down the written records that praised Li Dingyuan and advocated peace on the other hand. In the end, Li Du also sent a message, asking a representative to go to Yizheng to contact Liu Jun for peace.

As for the conditions, Li Dingyuan hopes that Liu Jingxiao can return the troops to the original defense. If it really doesn't work, he can cut the river and manage it. As for military expenditure, Jiangsu can compensate Shandong with 2 million yuan.

As for the negotiator, everyone agreed to Mr. Mao Yutian’s trip across the river. Mr. Mao took the initiative. He patted his chest and said, “In terms of qualifications, I am still Liu Jingxiao’s senior! I have always advocated peace and advocated peace!”

As soon as he left, everyone snorted coldly: "This Jiang Gan has gone across the river!"

Jiang Gan crosses the river and can also cause some storms. As soon as Mao Yutian landed on the shore, he found the Liu Jun van and said kindly: "You guys cross the river quickly..."

But Liu Jingxiao's troops laughed and welcomed Jiang Gan into the tent, then held a small military parade, and secretly said to each other with a bitter face: "It's not today, I have to wait for tomorrow..."

It turned out that the troops who arrived in Yicheng were only one company of Liu Jingxiao's vanguard troops. With this little force, it was just a meat bun to beat dogs, but Liu Jingxiao's troops could arrive in two or three days.

That night, Jiang Gan rushed back to Nanjing and once he met someone, he kept saying: "It's amazing! It's amazing! Yizheng has reached at least 20,000 troops, I don't know how many cannons are..."

It was really against Liu Jun's expectations that it would be that Li Dingyuan shouted: "What's the point of fear for me, Li Dingyuan! Even if he has an army of 200,000, I can still cut them down! I will gather the entire army to attack tomorrow, and then I will wipe out Liu Jingxiao's troops on the river..."

As he said that, Duke Li clapped himself as Zhou Gongjin, clapped his hands and said loudly: "The river goes east, the waves wash away. The eternal style of liu characters. To the west of the old building, the humanity is, Zhou Lang's Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms..."

It’s a pity that this cheering was not effective. Everyone didn’t expect how powerful Li Dingyuan was, "heroic, feather fan and fur scarf, and while chatting and laughing, the masts and oars were destroyed." Instead, they thought of another poem: "Wang Jun’s boat down from Yizhou, the king’s aura of Jinling was depressed. The Qianxun iron lock sank at the bottom of the river, and a stone descended from the flags…"

So, when he drove north that night, he kept counting Liu Jingxiao and found sixty-three loyalty letters, including blood letters that cut their fingers, which blamed Li Dingyuan for his mistakes.

Fortunately, two infantry battalions finally arrived that night, stabilizing Li Dingyuan's position. The Shen family in Shanghai repeatedly denied supporting Liu Jingxiao. Li Dingyuan counted his strength and counted all the police and local troops. There were still 7,000 people near Nanjing, and seemed to feel that they were still worth fighting, so they announced that they would lead the entire army to attack tomorrow.

So I found the president of the United Bank of Jiangsu Province and said loudly: "Tomorrow I will lead the troops to attack and defeat Liu Jingxiao in one fell swoop! You can prepare more money and reward the three armies at that time..."

The president hurriedly said: "There is 1.8 million yuan in savings, but now the officers and soldiers refuse to accept the savings, and even mutiny..."

Li Dingyuan couldn't help but ponder for a long time and asked, "What else is there except saving money? Gold and silver are fine!"

The president replied: "The Governor once instructed to mainly use the provincial currency to refuse the circulation of counterfeit coins in Shandong. Therefore, gold and silver have been sold to the market as a stable fund for use. There are only 115 taels of gold and 1,600 taels of silver..."

“How many securities are there?”

"The face value of various securities is 3,000 yuan."

Li Dingyuan was anxious: "How can I fight if I don't have money? Are there any banknotes in the two rows of Chinese exchange? If the war is misleading, I will kill you!"

"The two banknotes in China Communications Construction Bank are only 7,000 yuan, and the fake Shandong Provincial currency confiscated is 20,000 yuan!"

"No more?"

"No more...but the inventory still indicates that the savings of 1.2 million yuan are still used..."

"It's really gone?"

"By the way, Governor... I remember that there are still many copper coins in the industry that are used as several documents..."

In the early years of the Republic, the gold coins were used in the early years, and copper coins were used as the banknotes. It was customized as one thousand silver coins, which was equivalent to one dollar for silver. The actual conversion value was different, and roughly six or seven hundred yuan could be converted into one dollar for cash. Small coins in Jiangsu Province were popular, most of them were used as one paper, two papers, and a few were used as five papers. Liu Jingxiao was very unauthorized. He took back the copper coins that were used as one paper and two papers, and then vigorously changed to mint as ten papers, twenty papers, and fifty papers as auxiliary coins.

The profits were extremely heavy between in and out, which made Li Dingyuan even more depressed that bad money drove out good money. In addition to the bank's inventory, Jiangsu auxiliary coins disappeared without a trace on the market.

However, Li Dingyuan couldn't care about so much: "Saving coins is no longer useful now, so it's better to spend coins, forget it! You send all the money to the Supervisor's Office, and I will reward the troops tomorrow!"

That night, Li Dingyuan also invited all the directors of the Nanjing General Chamber of Commerce. Unfortunately, Xu Zhen and Xiao Xiaofat did not say a word, and in the end they had to end up fruitless.

The next morning, Li Dingyuan personally organized a small military parade, announcing the entire army to mobilize and annihilate Liu Jingxiao's crossing troops. After watching the military parade, Mao Yutian said to Fatty Xu: "It seems that Duke Li has made up his mind! It seems that the headquarters is moving!"

Xu Zhen still said nothing. At noon, Mr. Mao and Xu Zhen went to find Li Dingyuan again, but the house was gone. After asking again, there was only one answer: "Run!"

Li Dingyuan has left his troops and ran away!
