Chapter 142: The people who ambushed him are descendants of the Nian Army?
They said they entered the First Army's defense zone without the First Army's consent.
I request the command to punish Song Wenwan for not governing his subordinates strictly."
The Minister of Defense has good relations with the higher-ups and is also a veteran from Baoding.
He had just been humiliated in front of a group of military leaders.
I have no place to vent the anger in my heart, so I just start cursing.
"This First Army is a bunch of bastards. They all think in a completely stupid way."
“Now it’s obvious that it was Song Wenwan who let them off.
It would have been fine if his First Army didn't appreciate it, but they're still making a fuss everywhere.
How will the higher-ups deal with this matter? No wonder they are so angry. "
The Chief of the Military General Staff sighed. After all, they were all from the Central Army, so he couldn't just stand by and watch.
He took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote a line on it in front of the other two ministers.
“After investigation, it was found that the bandits who attacked General Song this time were descendants of the Nian Army.
They heard that General Song wanted to pass through Shaanxi and return to his hometown in Gansu.
People from all over the country have gathered in the northwest in an attempt to avenge their ancestors.
Unexpectedly, this matter had already been known by General Song and the First Army Headquarters.
The Gansu and Shaanxi armies worked together to set up an ambush and encircle the bandits in Xiaoyanchuan, and finally wiped out all of them. "
Then he said to the two ministers: "If the higher-ups agree, let the First Army of Shaanxi send it again according to this idea.
I think this reason will satisfy all parties.”
The Minister of Military Affairs and the Minister of Defense looked at each other: ...Is this even possible?
Are they descendants of the Nian Army? The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has been gone for more than 70 years.
Now you can find a descendant of the Nian Army...
You know what, this weird reason might actually fool people.
The Minister of Military Affairs said: "As for the First Army..."
The Chief of Military Affairs said: "Song Wenwan has obviously left some room for maneuver, so he won't say anything?
Not to mention the First Army Headquarters, which had been scolded for an hour by their superiors.
These ready-made steps have already been prepared for him.
If he fails to seize this opportunity, he will have no place in the First Army.
As for their Ma family army, they were useless. More than 4,000 people were fighting against Song Wenwan’s 200 people.
After fighting for twenty minutes and failing to break through the defense with two consecutive attacks, how dare you come out and speak?
Let the First Army pay for the weapons and give some compensation to the Ma Family Army, and let this matter be left alone!"
The two men heard this and gave the military commander a thumbs up. If we talk about cunning and sly, he is the one.
The three of them hurried to the headquarters, and soon, a joint investigation report from the First Army was issued.
From then on, this attack by the descendants of the Nian Army was defined by many parties.
Song Wenwan retreated towards Hengshan, while Lanzhou was in an uproar.
The Ma family army in Lanzhou had already prepared a celebration banquet.
They can start the feast as soon as they hear the news that Song Wenwan has been beheaded.
The troops sent to Longnan to divide Song Wenwan's family have been assembled, and even the carts are ready.
Near noon, they received a telegram from the Ma family army.
It is said that they have already caught up with Song Wenwan's shadow and will catch up with them in another half an hour.
After hearing the news, some people set out to the old house of the Lao Suo family in Lanzhou.
It’s a pity that the building was already empty and I don’t know when they got the news.
According to the neighbors, they had been walking for two days and would have arrived in Longnan by now.
The Ma family army came over, kicked open the door and wanted to rob the Suo family's property.
It turned out that there was a table with a box on it in the middle of the yard.
The leading group leader opened the box and found an envelope and one thousand silver dollars in cash in the box.
The regiment leader quickly opened the envelope, and inside the envelope was a note saying, "One thousand dollars for some tea for you all.
I hope everyone will not disturb the Suo family's old house. After we return home, the Suo family will definitely reward us handsomely!"
At this time, his adjutant saw that the signature on the letter was the number "nine" and quickly reminded him.
“Captain, why don’t we just take a thousand dollars and leave.
What if Song Wenwan escapes and it will be difficult for us to meet again in the future.
Besides, this letter was left by Ninth Brother. He is said to be very well-planned, so why should we go against him?"
Just when the team leader was hesitating, another group of people came to ransack the house.
When the other party saw that he didn't dare to search the house, he immediately laughed at him and said, "I didn't expect you to be afraid.
Since you have already taken this thousand dollars, why don’t you give me the benefits of this house!”
The leader who arrived first said with a smile: "Well, I'll give you this overwhelming wealth!"
After saying this, he asked Li Keren to take the box full of dollars and walked out of the Suo family's ancestral home without looking back.
"Hehe, you coward, you dare to argue with me?
Brothers, the coward is gone, all the good stuff in this room belongs to us, hurry up and look for it!"
The leader who arrived first ran about a mile before he stopped.
His subordinates said unsatisfiedly: "Captain, why are we running away? Don't we want all these good things?"
The regiment leader sneered: "If you don't run, will you wait for Brother Jiu from Longnan to come to Lanzhou to claim your life?
Do you think Song Wenwan is so easy to deal with?
As long as they are still alive, we must not act rashly."
His men wanted to say something else, but unexpectedly, at this moment, a loud noise was heard from the Suo family's old house.
When they looked back, thick smoke was already rising from there.
The provincial governor surnamed Ma, who was in the Ma family army, was in the living room listening to his subordinates flattering him.
Just as he was laughing triumphantly, he suddenly heard a loud explosion coming from inside the city.
After a while, the team leader who went to raid the Suo family's old house came back.
The governor of Gansu province grabbed him and asked, "What's the explosion outside?"
The head of the group said in a panic, "Brother Longnan Jiu left a letter at the Suo family's old house, not allowing anyone to touch the things inside."
“I did withdraw, but the black leader refused to listen to my advice and insisted on confiscating my property.
As a result, as a result, it turned out that someone had buried explosives in the Suo family's home in advance.
As Captain Hei and his men were searching, the entire old house exploded.
I've checked it out. More than 300 people went in and were buried inside. I guess... they're all finished."
While they were talking, there were seven or eight explosions in the city.
You don't need to ask to know that they were all shops belonging to the Suo family in the city, and they were also razed to the ground.
As several waves of soldiers came in to report, everyone's speculation was further confirmed.
The governor of Gansu Province sat down on the chair.
Then he reluctantly issued an order to temporarily suspend the house searches in the city and wait for the engineering battalion to clear the mines first.
Just at this moment, his confidential secretary ran into the living room in a panic.
"Reporting to Chairman Ma, something big has happened this time.
The cavalry we sent out to rob and kill Song Wenwan were surrounded and killed by Song Wenwan and the First Army's troops. "
After saying this, he handed several telegram drafts to the leader of the Ma family army.
"Remnants of the Nian Army, remnants of the Nian Army? The Qing Dynasty has been gone for many years, where did the remnants of the Nian Army come from?
I was tricked by those bastards from the First Army! Woo woo woo..."
