Chapter 279 Changes in Hubei Province
Dongjiang City
With the sad resignation of He Taikang and the sudden emergence of Lin Hongfei, the local forces in Dongjiang City have been running to the governor's mansion for a while, trying to get closer to Lin Hongfei, the new governor.
It's just that since Lin Hongfei went to Luoyang to pick up his wife, he has stayed in Jiangbei and has not returned to Dongjiang City. In this way, officials and gentry from local forces have been caught in the air several times in a row.
After coming and going, this group of people simply didn't go to the Governor's Mansion, and just waited for Lin Hongfei to return to Dongjiang City at home.
Anyway, Dongjiang City is the provincial capital, and the Governor's Mansion has no legs, so he can't get out of Dongjiang City. If Lin Hongfei doesn't come back for a day or two, he can't stop coming to Dongjiang City for work!
However, things just happened unexpectedly!
It didn't take long for new news to spread. Because Lin Hongfei didn't adapt to the environment of Dongjiang City, he decided to set up a temporary military governor's office of Lingnan Province in Jiangbei City, and handle the military affairs of Lingnan Province in Jiangbei City in the future.
As soon as the news came, this group of people was really caught off guard!
I thought I could wait for Lin Hongfei to come back, but who would have thought that he would just move away!
At this moment, everyone panicked.
I don’t know how many people in Dongjiang City made their fortunes by doing business with the Governor’s Mansion. Now the Governor’s Mansion has changed owners, and the owner is working in Jiangbei. Now everyone wants to eat the food of the Governor’s Mansion again, but just It's time to compete with Jiangbei people.
In this way, the Jiangbei people will be the first to get the moon if they are near the water.
In just a few days, the owners of several well-known large companies in Dongjiang City went to Jiangbei City overnight. In order to continue to do business with the Governor's Mansion, they were ready to spend their money.
However, the reason why Lin Hongfei didn't go to Dongjiang City Governor's Office to work was to suppress the local forces in Dongjiang City, so even if these people brought real money, they still didn't impress Lin Hongfei.
After some running, this group of people could be seen clearly, and one of them was able to ascend to heaven.
This Shuai Yun started his family in Jiangbei, so he will naturally be closer to Jiangbei people. With benefits, he will naturally take care of Jiangbei people more.
"30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi."
"Now, it's the Jiangbei people's turn to show off their prestige!"
The local gentry of Dongjiang City sighed helplessly, and then began to cooperate with the local gentry of Jiangbei City.
In this way, although they cannot monopolize the interests of the Governor's Mansion as before, at least they will not be kicked out of the Warlord's Mansion's interest circle. Although the gentry in Dongjiang City are greedy, they still understand this truth.
Regarding the fact that Lin Hongfei continued to work in Jiangbei, the happiest person was not the Jiangbei people, but Zhang Zhiqing, the governor of Lingnan Province.
Zhang Zhiqing, this person was the chief envoy of Lingnan Province in the Qing Dynasty, and was elected as the governor after the Republic of China.
Because he knew that he had no military power at hand, he always followed He Taikang's lead, which also allowed him to remain on the throne of governor.
However, Zhang Zhiqing still had a bit of ambition in his heart. He also wanted to establish his own career in this troubled world. He Taikang was standing beside him before, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
Now that Lin Hongfei stayed in Jiangbei to work, he himself was not in Dongjiang, so naturally his control over Dongjiang City would be weakened.
Zhang Zhiqing felt that he could take the opportunity to do something, and the idea of driving Lin Hongfei out of Lingnan Province was somewhat unrealistic, but at least he could take back the administrative power belonging to the provincial government.
Avoid the situation where the Governor's Mansion in charge of military affairs is actually caught by the military and political power again!
Therefore, during this period of time, Zhang Zhiqing's spirit was very high, and he even became confident in his speech.
Regarding Zhang Zhiqing, Lin Hongfei didn't bother to pay attention to him for the time being. This person is just a scholar, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
What's more, Lin Hongfei also let Chu Liangyi bring heavy troops to Dongjiang City, and served as the military affairs supervisor of Dongjiang and Beishan area and the mayor of Dongjiang City.
Therefore, Zhang Zhiqing's planning can only be done on paper for self-entertainment.
At this time, Lin Hongfei finally ushered in a period of respite. From the beginning when he came to Jiangdu County to serve as the county magistrate, and now he is now in the high position of the governor of Lingnan Province. He has never been idle these days. There are urgent things that keep popping up that need to be dealt with.
Therefore, during this period of respite, Lin Hongfei can still enjoy the happy time of family reunion.
Lin Zhifeng finally became acquainted with his own father, and he stopped crying every time he was hugged by Lin Hongfei, but laughed non-stop.
Chen Mei also gave birth to Lin Hongfei's second son, Lin Zhixing, two months later, which made the entire Lin family busy again.
And Lin Hongfei's other concubine, Ou Xiaoyu, also came to Jiangbei and became pregnant with Lin Hongfei's third child. As for whether it was a boy or a girl, it was unknown.
But already had two sons, Lin Hongfei still wanted a girl, it would be good to have both sons and daughters.
While Lin Hongfei was enjoying this rare and leisurely time, a piece of news from Hubei Province forced him to withdraw from his leisurely time!
"Shuai Yun, emergency report from Hubei province!"
Li Kui brought a copy of the latest military information and handed it to Lin Hongfei.
"Wang Zichun, the governor of Hubei Province, who was on the tour of the two lakes, caused civil uprisings because of his perverse actions in the province. In addition, he regularly withheld military pay, which triggered dozens of mutinies."
"Now all parties in Hubei Province have unanimously decided to overthrow the king and expel him from the province."
"Now, Zhao Yanwu, Song Shizhang and others from Hunan Province have led their troops northward to attack E Province from Yuezhou."
"In order to resist the Hunan Army going north, Wang Zichun has sent Sun Xinyuan, the commander of the No.18 Division under his command, to lead troops to stop it!"
Listening to Li Kui's narration, Lin Hongfei noticed the name Sun Xinyuan. This person was none other than Marshal Sun, who later became the commander of the five-provincial coalition forces with the same name as Wu Ziyu and Marshal Zhang.
It's just that Marshal Sun at this time is only a division commander under Wang Zichun's command. Although he is already well-known, he has not yet reached the time when he will dominate the five southeastern provinces and become powerful in the future.
At this time, Li Kui continued: "Wang Zichun also sent a military order to Chief Wu Yongquan, asking him to lead troops to stop the Hunan Army from going north, otherwise the military law will proceed."
Wu Yongquan is now serving as the guardian envoy of Western Hubei. In theory, he is indeed under the management of Wang Zichun, the governor of Hubei Province.
Hearing this, Lin Hongfei couldn't help laughing and cursing: "Military law is nonsense, he is almost in danger of himself, who will he do!"
Li Kui also smiled and said, "Officer Wu also meant the same thing. In addition, he sent someone over to deliver a message, and he also wanted to ask you if there is anything you need to pay attention to?"
Lin Hongfei was silent for a moment, and asked, "Is there any news from Yushuai?"
Li Kui shook his head: "Not yet, but he is also directly related to Wang Zichun, I don't think Yushuai will stand idly by!"
Lin Hongfei nodded: "Let's do this, tell Yongquan to stand still and let him pass the pass."
"If they want to overthrow the king, let them do so. No matter how chaotic the outside world is, Exi must not be infiltrated by other people."
