"After recruiting, Yang Wei now has more than 12,000 troops under his command. Supervisor, this person must be guarded!"

The person who was indignant in Qi Xieyuan's office was Zhao Jinzhong.

After Liao Huaji was detained by Yang Wei, Zhao Jinzhong had been paying attention to Yang Wei's every move in Hangzhou. Due to the empty military pay and false reporting of military supplies, Liao Huaji made Qi Xieyuan furious. Even though the detained Liao Huaji was his own provincial defense brigade commander, Qi Xieyuan ignored it. Although the Japanese agreed to Zhao Jinzhong to find a way to exchange Liao Huaji from Yang Wei, there was no news at all, which made Zhao Jinzhong start to doubt the intentions of the Japanese.

At this point, Zhao Jinzhong knew that he could only rely on himself to defeat Yang Wei. Since he refused to surrender to his command, he would sooner or later as an enemy.

Zhao Jinzhong wanted to find a handle from Yang Wei, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter. After sending someone to investigate, Zhao Jinzhong actually found that Yang Wei was recruiting troops in Hangzhou City, and his previous actions were very popular with the people. In addition, there were many people fleeing to the south of the northeast and northwest, and the number of people joining the army this time was quite large. 107

Zhao Jinzhong hurriedly told Qi Xieyuan the news, waiting for Qi Xieyuan to send troops to surrender Yang Wei, the rebel.

After hearing this, Qi Xieyuan, who was reviewing the official documents, raised his head and widened his eyes and said, "Say it again, how many troops does he have?"

Zhao Jinzhong gestured with joy and said, "Ten thousand people! The general, Yang Wei is so arrogant and has other intentions. It is not good for the general to keep such a dangerous guy by his side."

Qi Xieyuan grew up and pondered for a long time. There were only 12,000 troops in his hands. He only wanted Yang Wei to serve as a staff officer. Zhao Jinzhong tried to persuade him and barely gave him a regiment commander. But in just a few months, Yang Wei actually had the strength of the two brigades. If he continued to develop at this speed, he would soon dominate one side.

It’s not that Qi Xieyuan didn’t understand Zhao Jinzhong’s meaning. Even if Zhao Jinzhong didn’t say it, Qi Xieyuan could still understand Yang Wei’s misconduct. The key problem was that he didn’t know what Yang Wei planned now. Moreover, the situation was chaotic. The Northern Expedition Army had divided into three groups to launch the Northern Expedition from Guangdong. In order to serve as the main force on the front, the Western Road pointed directly at Wu Peifu’s nest pointing to Wuhan; the middle Road was directly inserted into Jiangxi, and to ensure the safety of the flanks on the main attack direction, the plan to attack Sun Chuanfang’s troops in Jiangxi was revealed; the eastern Road was heading to Fujian and Zhejiang.

The Northern Expedition Army was huge, and it was impossible not to fight this battle. The strength of the Northern Expedition Army was recognized by many powerful countries. It is known that the Northern Expedition Army was a new army composed of Huangpu elites. The strength of the Beiyang Army was very different from that of the Northern Expedition Army. Although Sun Chuanfang from Jiangxi had strong support from the British, he was a guy who could not contribute money. If Jiangxi was captured, then Qi Xieyuan was not far from the battle.

Under such circumstances, Qi Xieyuan's clone was unable to send troops to pacify Yang Wei, who had two brigades of troops. Otherwise, before the Northern Expedition Army came, Qi Xieyuan would have had trouble with him.

Qi Xieyuan felt very anxious and immediately called to recall Bai Lu. Zhao Jinzhong was still nagging. Qi Xieyuan felt a headache when he heard it and shouted angrily: "If you hadn't led the wolf into the house, this would have happened? If Liao Hua had been extremely empty, you wouldn't have noticed it, it would have been like this!"

Zhao Jinzhong was scolded so much that he was so angry that he saw Qi Xieyuan was furious, so he might take his anger on him and quickly retreated in shame.

Qi Xieyuan sat alone at the table and thought about it for a long time. Yang Wei was able to build up the forces of two brigades without using his own military pay. Such skills and ability should not be underestimated. Not to mention whether he would rebel for the time being, he really felt a pity that he wanted Qi Xieyuan to give up such a talent.

Although Qi Xieyuan, as the governor, also has the second division and the first brigade, if he really compares with Yang Wei, there are not many decent officers, but I don’t know what Yang Wei’s strength is and what his weapons are.

Speaking of Bai Lu, when he suddenly received Qi Xieyuan's order, Bai Lu was very curious. He didn't know what was wrong with Qi Xieyuan so panicked. Bai Lu had to hurry to Nanjing and came to Qi Xieyuan's governor's palace without stopping.

As soon as he opened the door, before Bai Lu could take a breath, Qi Xieyuan asked anxiously: "I sent you to investigate Yang Wei's affairs, why hasn't there been any news for so long?"

Although he is just an adopted daughter, Qi Xieyuan treats Bai Lu and his biological children in normal times. It was the first time he spoke to Bai Lu so sternly, which surprised Bai Lu. However, Bai Lu did blame himself. The tasks assigned by Qi Xieyuan before could be successfully completed within a week at most. This time, because of Qiao Zhonghe's affairs, he inexplicably got involved with Yang Wei, which made Bai Lu feel very guilty.

Bai Lu told the truth about his investigation results: "Yang Wei was very dedicated in training and training outside Hangzhou City. In addition to handling Hangzhou affairs, he rarely contacted outsiders. He only found a German businessman, which was also a transaction relationship between buying and selling weapons. He did not find that he had collusion with other forces, so he should have no intentions."

Qi Xieyuan shook his head and sighed repeatedly: "What I want is an accurate result, not what you should say!"

This made Bai "Lu" not know how to answer, and lowered her head and became silent.

Qi Xieyuan sighed, the hearts of people are the most unpredictable, and they are changing every moment. He asked Bai Lu like this a little too harshly. He said to Bai Lu with a serious voice: "I think you have heard about Yang Wei's re-enlistment of troops. If we still can't figure out his intentions, maybe one day he suddenly turned against others, and we will be the one who will suffer."

Bai "Lu" pursed her lips and said nothing. To be honest, she has dealt with Yang Wei twice. Based on her understanding of Yang Wei, she should not be the kind of person Qi Xieyuan said. This can be seen from his handling of Qiao Zhonghe. She couldn't help but defend Yang Wei: "Zhao Jinzhong is probably too much, and his father doesn't have to be so nervous."

Qi Xieyuan stared and said, "If this is not the case, why did he expand his army privately?"

Bai Lu knew that Qi Xieyuan's nature was very cautious and even a little suspicious. She frowned slightly and said sincerely: "The situation is tense now, and it is natural to expand the army."

Sometimes, even if you don’t even know about human hearts, let alone others, Qi Xieyuan knew that there was no point in arguing like this, so he waved his hand and said, “Okay, let’s not discuss what Yang Wei is thinking. No matter how much he says, he is just a guess. You can’t dig out his heart. If he goes against it, he will naturally have a reverse way to treat it, but I have a better way.”

Bai Lu tilted her head and looked at Qi Xieyuan in confusion and said, "A better way?"

As soon as he saw Bai Lu, Qi Xieyuan thought of this method. In his opinion, this method is the most foolproof. He couldn't help but smile mysteriously and said, "Yes, I have a way to make him submit to us honestly."

Looking at Qi Xieyuan's expression, Bai Lu suddenly felt a little dangerous and asked cautiously, "What kind of trick did my father think of?"
