Chapter 379 Ambition
After Lin Hongfei took office in Guangdong and Guangxi, although Fengjun was angry, the last battle in Yu Province left a deep impression on Fengjun's senior management.
Therefore, no one is willing to take the initiative to touch Lin Hongfei, a hard rock.
Pick up the persimmons and pinch them softly.
Simply, Feng Jun vented his anger on the Zhili warlords in Anhui, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang provinces.
But Qi Xieyuan and Ma Lianjia were the first to bear the brunt and became the key targets of the Feng army's southward attack.
The battle went smoothly, Qi Xieyuan, Ma Lianjia and others announced their resignation successively, and hid in the concession to avoid the world.
Feng Jun's territory immediately extended to the Suzhou area, and it was only one step away from the Shanghai stock market occupied by Lin Hongfei!
On a hilltop in the outskirts of Shanghai, Yang Yuting, a high-ranking officer of the Fengjun Army, and a group of followers watched the bustling Shanghai in the distance with binoculars.
"Nice place!"
"It's a pity that Lin Hongfei took over!"
"Such a fertile land should belong to me!"
Yang Yuting is a very ambitious person, and he is indeed quite strategic.
Of course, in front of ordinary people, Yang Yuting's strategy is called strategy.
But if he stood in front of Feng Jun's old man, his strategy would become a mess.
After all, what kind of character is Feng Jun's old man, from a bandit to the overlord of the three provinces, his wrist is strong, the city is deep, and his vision is poisonous, which is absolutely incomparable.
Therefore, on weekdays, Yang Yuting, in front of the old man, can be said to be as honest as a sheep, without any temper.
Whatever the boss asked him to do, he would do it, and he didn't dare to overstep.
But that doesn't mean he's an obedient person.
Now, Yang Yuting has come to Suzhou, which is thousands of miles away. The old man lives far away in the capital, and he has not been stared at by the old man every day, so he has become much more courageous!
At this moment, looking at the bustling Shanghai stock market, Yang Yuting really wanted to take it down and take it for himself.
But the old commander had an order in advance not to let Feng Jun provoke Lin Hongfei, so as not to irritate the other party, let the other party lead the Shanling Army to fight Feng Jun desperately.
In this way, no matter who wins or loses in the end, Feng Jun will lose the opportunity and strength to compete for the world.
But now, Yang Yuting had a bold idea in his heart:
"Do you want to cut first and play later!"
"If I take down the Shanghai stock market, even if the boss gets angry, he won't criticize me."
"After all, with such a fertile land in hand, we won't have to worry about military expenses in the future!"
"And it can deal a heavy blow to Lin Hongfei's power and reputation!"
"But, what if it doesn't work out?"
Yang Yuting hesitated again.
It was as if there was a tempting piece of fat in front of him.
But if you want to eat this piece of fat, you need to walk across a dangerous suspension bridge. If you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff and die.
In the midst of entanglement, Yang Yuting decided to send someone to investigate the situation of the Shanling Army's garrison in Shanghai.
If there are loopholes in the opponent's defense, then you can fight without declaring war and take down this Shanghai stock market.
In fact, Yang Yuting thinks that he has no chance of winning the Shanghai stock market.
First of all, the greatest chance of winning is that the Shanghai stock market is far away from Lin Hongfei's core territory.
This made Lin Hongfei unable to provide timely support when the Shanghai stock market was attacked, and could only rely on the Shanghai stock market garrison to bear it.
Once the garrison in Shanghai loses its combat effectiveness, the balance of victory in the entire battle will lean towards Fengjun.
The second chance of winning is that Feng Jun has won many battles along the way.
It can be said to be a victorious division with a victorious posture, with high morale and strong fighting spirit!
At the same time, Guo Lang and Wu Qishan, who were stationed in the Shanghai stock market, also noticed the strangeness of Feng Jun recently.
Their keen sense of smell told them that Feng Jun intends to attack the Shanghai stock market.
Without any hesitation, Guo Lang immediately ordered the Shanghai garrison to enter a state of combat readiness to defend against possible attacks by the Feng army at any time.
At the same time, Guo Lang also sent a telegram to Lin Hongfei, reporting Feng Jun's changes.
Telegram transmission is fast.
But when Lin Hongfei received the telegram, he was facing another major event.
Wu Ziyu and Xiao Yaonan finally meet each other!
As the two former core members of the direct line, Wu Ziyu and Xiao Yaonan have always had a close relationship.
Even in a certain period of time, Xiao Yaonan was the lubricating oil between Wu Ziyu and Cao Zhongsan.
Once there was any conflict between the two, it would be Xiao Yaonan, a person who was on good terms with both parties, to mediate.
But when Wu Ziyu lost power, everything changed.
Xiao Yaonan won the Tour Envoy of the Two Lakes, just like a person who has been poor all his life, suddenly got a golden job, he hugged him tightly, afraid that someone would snatch it away.
Therefore, when Wu Ziyu proposed to return to Hankou in Hubei Province, Xiao Yaonan immediately refused.
They even sent troops to stop and expel them.
Xiao Yaonan knew that Wu Ziyu had a certain reputation in Hubei Province, and he had served in Hubei Province for many years, and he also had many political opponents.
In the past, these political enemies also had conflicts with each other, and they were in a state of disunity, so they couldn't unite to deal enough blows to Xiao Yaonan.
But once Wu Ziyu enters Hankou.
These political enemies can completely crowd around Wu Ziyu and form a confrontation with him.
At that time, it is very likely that I will lose everything I have finally gained.
So, the two old friends fell out.
And when Wu Ziyu came to Western Hubei to regroup and recruit troops wantonly.
The anxiety in Xiao Yaonan's heart became even stronger!
In the past, West Hubei was controlled by Lin Hongfei, although he was unwilling.
But fortunately, Lin Hongfei's main energy was to go north to attack Shaanxi and Henan.
The target was not set within the territory of Hubei Province.
Therefore, Xiao Yaonan could still endure the discomfort and let Lin Hongfei occupy the western Hubei area.
But now, Wu Ziyu has actually arrived in western Hubei.
Moreover, they are still recruiting and buying horses, and wantonly expanding the army!
Can a mere piece of Western Hubei satisfy the appetite of Wu Ziyu, who was once the strongest warrior in the country and the number two in his lineage?
Of course not!
Therefore, once Wu Ziyu recruited an army.
His first choice must be to play west of Hubei and expand the territory.
To the northwest of Hubei is Lin Hongfei's Lingnan.
To the west is Sichuan and Chongqing, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Therefore, Wu Ziyu's marching direction can only be east or south.
To the east and south, both are in the Lianghu area!
To put it bluntly, sooner or later Wu Ziyu will raise troops to seize his power!
In front of power.
What kind of close friends, old friends for many years, that's not even a fart!
Therefore, Xiao Yaonan didn't have any hesitation, he had to take advantage of Wu Ziyu's unsteady footing, and drive him out of Hubei Province first.
Moreover, Xiao Yaonan sent people to Lingnan Province to investigate in advance, and found that both Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan had gone to Shaanxi Province, and they would not be able to return to Lingnan Province for a while.
Only then did he decide to move his troops westward and completely take Western Hubei back into his hands.
But Xiao Yaonan was a little worried.
Lin Hongfei is really too lazy to get involved in these fights now.
Even if he knew that Xiao Yaonan was attacking West Hubei, he would not send troops to interfere.
As for the reason
Naturally, Wu Ziyu's personal ability needless to say.
But like a heavily armored cavalry in armor, he can run wild on the ancient battlefield.
But when faced with muskets, he was easily killed.
It's not that he's no longer capable.
It's that his ability is not suitable for this changing era.
Therefore, any behavior of Wu Ziyu now is just a flashback.
He is a remnant of the old days.
In the new era, there is no big ship to carry him.
So
To a certain extent, Lin Hongfei wished that Wu Ziyu would fail again, so that he could find a place to retire at ease.
However, Lin Hongfei still underestimated Wu Ziyu's return.
It was only half a month after Xiao Yaonan gathered troops from the two lakes and rushed to a place in the west of Hubei.
Xiao Yaonan actually lost!
And it was a complete failure!
The army in his hand was either defeated or turned to Wu Ziyu.
The territory of the two lakes was also lost.
Xiao Yaonan rushed back to Hankou overnight, packed up his clothes, and left E Province by boat.
Hubei Province, re-administered by Wu Ziyu!
At this moment, the No. [-] person in the direct line who suffered a crushing defeat in Tanggu has once again become a tyrant in the country.
Wu Ziyu swept away his decadent spirit, and the spirit of controlling the world returned to him again.
At this time, Wu Ziyu was full of ambition.
Relying only on one Western Hubei, he regained the military and political power of Hubei Province.
In the future, I can also rely on E Province to return to the original peak!
Sure enough, when ordinary people are on the verge of danger, they can only gasp for breath, fall to the ground and wait for death.
The red light on Ultraman's chest was beeping non-stop, but he could use his big moves randomly, kicking Baltan and King Red.
The gap between people is sometimes wider than the gap between a fucking human and a chimpanzee.
When Lin Hongfei heard the news, he was also stunned for a while on the spot.
After his face changed for a while, he said with a complicated face:
"I should say Yushuai is too strong!"
"It should be said that Xiao Yaonan is too weak."
"I have never seen the troops from the two lakes assembled, and they can't beat a western Hubei."
"It's fine if you can't beat it!"
"And was killed by someone?"
But Lin Hongfei didn't have the time to think about it.
Compared with the things in Hubei province, he now has to focus on the Shanghai stock market.
As for Yang Yuting's thoughts on the Shanghai stock market, Lin Hongfei was already prepared when Feng Jun went south.
After all, who can look at such a fertile land in front of him, but can only look at it, not eat it.
After reading the contents of the telegram, Wu Yongquan couldn't help frowning and said, "What does Yang Yuting mean by that!"
"We signed an armistice agreement with Fengjun."
"He shouldn't treat this agreement as waste paper!"
"Also, he is an officer in the army, not even a top figure, yet he dares to do such a thing."
"He's brave enough!"
Lin Hongfei chuckled: "If people's hearts are not enough, they will swallow elephants like snakes!"
"Looking at this piece of fat in the Shanghai stock market, I want to go and take a bite!"
Wu Yongquan looked at the telegram again, and suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Lin Hongfei was a little puzzled.
Wu Yongquan stopped laughing, but the corners of his mouth were still upturned and he said, "I can guess why Yang Yuting wanted to attack the Shanghai stock market."
"Oh, tell me!" Lin Hongfei said with great interest.
Wu Yongquan threw the telegram in his hand aside, then leaned on the grand master's chair and said slowly:
"He must think that the Shanghai stock market is too far away from us, and we can't rescue it in time."
"He, Yang Yuting, just wanted to cut through the mess with a quick knife and take down the Shanghai stock market quickly."
"When our reinforcements arrive, the raw rice will be cooked!"
Lin Hongfei nodded in agreement and said, "Well, I guess he thinks so too."
Wu Yongquan said with a meaningful smile:
"It's just that this Yang Yuting has other talents, but he is not so talented in leading troops to fight."
"He just saw that our main force is far away from the Shanghai stock market."
"But I didn't realize that we have so many troops stationed in Yu Province."
"As long as we want, we can send troops to Lu Province at any time, cut off Fengjun's territory, and force them to return to defense!"
"At that time, let alone attack the Shanghai stock market."
"Whether he can pass the level of Feng Jun's old commander is a question!"
Lin Hongfei laughed and said:
"That's right, that's why he is obviously a talented person, but he is only suppressed by the old man."
"This Shanghai stock market, he can fight it if he wants!"
"As long as he dares to fight."
"Let's send troops to Lu Province immediately."
"When the time comes, I'll put him in a dilemma and see how he ends up!"
Although the Shanling Army and the Feng Army were evenly matched last time.
But the main reason is that the main force of the Feng army came out in full force, while Lin Hongfei's Shanling army ran for a long distance, and its combat effectiveness was seriously depleted.
But now, the situation is reversed.
The Feng army captured Lu Province, Anhui Province, Suzhou Province and other places one after another. The originally sufficient troops were scattered and stationed in the three provinces, and the number of troops capable of mobile operations was immediately insufficient.
Therefore, once Lin Hongfei made the gesture of attacking Lu Province.
Feng Jun also made it difficult to return to defense and rush to rescue in time.
Moreover, in this way, the speed at which the Feng army continued to move south would be delayed.
Therefore, Lin Hongfei didn't take Yang Yuting's opportunity to attack Shanghai.
He wants to fight?
Then let him fight!
When the time comes, let's see who is hard to end!
At the same time, after some reconnaissance, Yang Yuting finally found it difficult to restrain his desire for the Shanghai stock market.
He decided not to report to Marshal Fengjun first!
Let's cut first and then play!
Conquering the Shanghai stock market is a great feat!
At this time, Yang Yuting's foundation in Fengjun was not solid.
Relying on his achievements in managing the arsenal in the three eastern provinces, he was valued by the Fengjun veteran and entrusted with important tasks.
But because he seldom participated in military battles, his reputation in the army was not very high.
Some people even think that he can't fight at all!
At best, he is a scholar on paper.
Therefore, Yang Yuting has always been hiding an impulse in his heart.
That is, we must win a big battle and let those people in Fengjun see it.
Guo Songling and Guo Guizi are not the only ones who can fight!
I, Yang Yuting, can also fight!
Moreover, if he can win the battle against Shanghai, he can also take over the post of Songhu Guard.
The gold content of this position is no worse than that of a provincial governor!
Therefore, in such complicated emotions, Yang Yuting did not discuss with Feng Jun's old man.
He even sent false military orders and mobilized his troops to prepare for a sneak attack on the Shanghai stock market!
Almost simultaneously with this, the Shanling Army stationed in Yu Province began to march towards Lu Province on a large scale.
That menacing appearance seemed to want to knock down Lu Sheng in one go!
