C157 (2/2)
Yama Takashi was just about to wake up and take a walk, when he saw Wu Peifu calling out to him: ”Good morning, Mr. Wu!” Wu Peifu returned the greeting, and then said: ”Old friend, did you sleep well last night?” Wu Peifu said happily: ”En, not bad.” Yama Takashi then said, ”I hope you have a new answer to the matter that I have requested of you.”
Seeing that he was about to continue pestering her, Wu Peifu was already annoyed in her heart. With a frown, she perfunctorily replied, ”Sir, don't worry. Yama Takashi thought that there was hope, and happily replied: ”Very good! ”I'll be waiting next. I won't disturb you too much.”
Wu Peifu came to the front hall, and the staff officer held onto the message: ”Last night, the President called and strictly ordered us to leave camp for Zhengzhou today. He said that if he didn't listen to his orders, he would do it in accordance with the laws of the military. Captain Cao was so frightened by the telegram that he ran back to the station overnight. ” Wu Peifu read the message and said, ”President is speaking nonsense. There was even a trick involved. I expect that this is the little fan Xu Shuzheng said bad things about us to the President when we got back yesterday. His slander of us must have been very violent. ”
When everyone heard this, they didn't have any ideas of what to do. Wu Peifu paced around with the message in his hand, muttering to himself, ”If I dare to disobey this electric order again, the consequences will definitely be dire. What should I do? ” Before long, beads of sweat trickled down his forehead.
Just as Wu Peifu was panicking and at a loss for words, the aide delivered another message, saying: ”Commander, this was sent from Beijing just now.” Wu Peifu looked at the message in his hand and immediately became happy. He then recited, ”There has been a change in the circumstances of the battle, I have not fully understood it, we will temporarily leave the camp and remain on standby.” Wu Peifu was elated. ”The President is still wise, he finally understands. He won't chase us away anymore. That's great! ”
The staff officer then said: ”This is my scheme. This is Xu Shuzheng's scheme. Last night, when I received the dispatch from the President, I immediately sent an urgent telegram to the Elder Feng in Nanjing to convey my views. The Elder Feng must have received the telegram and sent the President a telegram to stop us from leaving camp that very night. According to the telegram, the president is in doubt. ”
Wu Peifu was even more pleased when he heard about it and praised, ”You sent the telegram so well! You are indeed the little Zhuge who is by my side, as expected, you have some ingenuity to think things through for me. This move of yours is really high! ” And then he continued: ”In the future, we will work together and work together. When we defeat Duan Qirui and those bastards, and enter the capital, I will transfer all of you to the higher levels. Let our people flourish in the government, everywhere; let Duan Qirui and those bastards go to hell! ”
The staff officer continued, ”Not only will we not move, we will also not move in the future. It's easy to control Beijing here, so we have it. In the future, they could only move forward and not retreat. ”Don't worry, Lord Marshal. We will definitely work together and will not let you down!” The aide added, ”The commander-in-chief is trying to cure us of our illness. We cannot let you toil for us. Let the commander get rid of the disease early, the body recovery early, the tiger is peerless. ”It's only a matter of time before the Anhui war breaks out. At that time, the commander in chief commanded thousands of men and horses, annihilating the Anhui province and returning the favor to Elder Feng.”
Wu Peifu was overjoyed: ”Thank you for your support! Thanks for your support! You all speak well! I'll start taking medicine and recuperating from today. I have something to ask of you guys. ” The staff officer, aide-de-camp and the others immediately replied ”Yes”. Wu Peifu was ecstatic and smiled. He turned and walked out of the house, humming a tune as he turned to go see Yama Takashi.
As he walked, he thought to himself: ”This Japanese enemies, I have already told him everything. Why is he still pestering me like this? Japanese enemies and Duan Qirui's group have the best relationship, they are definitely unable to drive me away from here, could it be that they have some sort of trap? He wants to lure me into a trap. Yama Takashi said that he had reliable information and was afraid that it was true. They must have arranged it in advance so that if I went I would be able to get the man out. Then they made a lot of noise and made it public for me to commit the crime of communicating with a foreign country. The President will not forgive me for knowing this. At that time, not only would I be expelled from Zhuozhou, even Old Marshal Feng Guozhang would not be able to escape his punishment. Even the entire direct line would lose their reputation and lose all their prestige. This suited Duan Qirui and the others. This bastard Yama Takashi, he definitely doesn't have any good ideas towards me. He had sent me the girl to lure me into the trap. ”I can't fall for his trick, and even more so, I can't be the main cause of trouble.”
Wu Peifu's analysis was correct. Yama Takashi's spies from Black Dragon Society was precisely such a scheme. They wanted to use this to help Duan Qirui drive away Wu Peifu and Cao Kun, as well as to make a name for themselves with Feng Guozhang as their leader. It could be seen how insidious and ruthless the methods of handling Black Dragon Society Of Japan were.
Wu Peifu saw through the truth and was shocked, hence he hated Yama Takashi to the core. He suddenly laughed again and thought to himself, ”I do. Just like this, I will ensure that Miss stays and kick Yama Takashi out. I told him to make amends. Wu Peifu gave up on his idea and secretly nodded his head in joy. Unknowingly, he arrived in front of the door to Yama Takashi's house. He straightened himself and was about to knock on the door. That's right: there were thousands of ways to harm people, and thousands of ways to defend against them.
