Nie Li was noncommittal.
"A joke? My father-in-law has already become the laughing stock of the world. Brother Fengshan, I respect you as a serious soldier. Get out of the way. Let Nie Li forget the blame. Let's have a drink together at the end of the year."
But Fengshan, as Lao Yuan's confidant, was in the same situation as Chang Baili when he met Nie Li. How could he get out of the way?
He shook his head at Nie Li and said, "Brother, I really don't want to fight with you. But Fengshan is deeply favored by Mr. Yuan, and now is the time to be loyal."
At this point, Fengshan's refusal to call him "Your Majesty" has already explained the problem.
But it is absolutely impossible for him to betray you, Lao Yuan.
Nie Li sighed: "Brother Fengshan, why do you have to take such a dark road? Can't you understand the current situation across the country?"
"Look at the people who provoked my father-in-law, are they still there now? All those who resisted in Beiyang were suppressed. Is this normal?"
"The Beiyang in my heart should be a faction that serves the country and the people, not a faction that serves him alone. Brother Fengshan, make way. Don't make things difficult for your brothers."
Fengshan understood what Nie Li said, so he could only smile bitterly: "Brother, please use whatever means you have."
The first town in Fengshan was the unit with the least penetration by Nie forces.
These are Lao Yuan's absolute elite and confidants.
Nie Li saw Fengshan being so persistent.
Shaking his head, he stepped back.
He said to Zhao Hu on the side: "Fight!"
Zhao Hu only transferred one division.
Arrange troops in formation.
Take a stance.
After half a day, Nie Li sent people to persuade him numerous times, but all to no avail.
Fengshan was determined.
"attack!"
Nie Li gave the order.
This pass, which had withstood countless foreign enemies, once again withstood the impact of artillery fire.
To be honest, Nie Li didn't want to attack one of his own, whether it was Beiyang or others, even Zhao Wencai, didn't Nie Li keep him running around for so long?
Civil war is a dishonorable act in his opinion. Whether he wins or loses, the enemy is happy.
My nation lost. If you don’t believe it, look at the great powers. They are all paying attention to the great changes.
But sometimes we have to fight. Nie Li can't give up most of the people because of a small group, nor can he give up the strategic plan because of Fengshan.
Zhao Hu received the order and commanded the troops to fight.
Nothing else, just one word, boom!
The old rules, infantry and artillery coordination, squad skirmishers, remove firepower points.
It is such a simple tactic, but it is a tactic that the Chinese can only dream of at this time.
To do this, you need to be an elite soldier.
The requirements for grassroots commanders are very high.
In just half a day, Shanhaiguan changed hands, and all the troops in Fengshan town, more than 10,000 people, were killed.
Except for those who had been infiltrated by Nie Li, because these people had been preparing to escape before the artillery fire started.
Nie Li looked at Shanhaiguan where corpses were strewn everywhere, and his heart ached.
"Clean the battlefield to see if anyone is still alive and actively treat them."
Although Zhao Hu nodded, he knew in his heart that not many were alive.
The shock from large-caliber artillery can kill people.
No one could bear the onslaught for half a day.
With that said, Nie Li found Fengshan's body again, and saw that Fengshan still maintained a charging posture before he died, commanding the sword and not letting go.
Eyes wide.
Nie Li sighed, squatted down, and gently asked Fengshan to close his eyes with his right hand wearing a white glove.
"Let's bury him and find someone to erect a monument."
Xiao Yao hurriedly went to do it.
There are only a few troops in the country that can fight to the end without collapse. There is no doubt that Fengshan did it.
It didn’t embarrass Beiyang either.
Although the war was a humiliating civil war.
Nie Li doesn't want to kill his own people anymore.
"Let the local governor here come to see me. Then let the rear send people to prepare to take over the territory."
Not long after, a man who looked like an official walked up to Nie Li fearfully.
He cautiously shouted: "Nie Shuai!"
Nie Li waved his hand impatiently: "What it was like here before will be what it will be in the future. There can't be chaos here. Can we do that?"
The visitor looked at Nie Li in surprise: "Nie Shuai, do you still want me?"
These words made Nie Li interested in him.
"Why not use it? I, Nie Li, am also a member of Beiyang. Why don't I use Beiyang's talents?"
"Hu Zhengyi graduated from the Capital Academy. He has worked hard to protect the safety of the country for many years. He is quite prestigious in the local area and is loved by the people. Why don't I use such a person?"
After speaking, he looked at Hu Zhengyi: "The President and I have different political views, but it does not mean that I am not from Beiyang. I also have feelings for Beiyang. My brothers must be valued at this time."
"As for the issue between me and the president, you don't have to get involved. The country can't have another emperor. No one can think of it!"
Hu Zhengyi was shocked.
He was already prepared to die as a martyr, after all, Fengshan died.
Moreover, according to the official statement, Nie Li judged Beiyang.
Although everyone knew what was going on, Nie Li never expected that he would ignore the previous suspicion and continue to admit that he was from Beiyang, and even entrust him with important responsibilities.
He said excitedly: "Shuai Nie, don't worry, I will not participate in party struggles. I just want to do something good for the people under my rule."
Nie Li smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll see how you perform." If you have colleagues or something, you can also make it clear to them that the Beiyang lineage cannot fail. Don’t worry about your career! '
Hu Zhengyi went out and Nie Li smiled.
This is a strategy that has been prepared for a long time. The talents under his command have long been stretched in the face of the huge three provinces and Dongshan, and they have been coveting the talents of Beiyang for a long time.
How could we let these people go unused?
It just needs to be screened later.
Get some training.
But at this time, it is necessary to win over most of the people in Beiyang to fight against that small group.
News of Nie Li's entry spread like wildfire.
The elite first town in Fengshan actually only resisted for half a day before the entire army was annihilated.
This frightened countless officials near Zhili.
They all thought about how to save their lives.
But then, Nie Li's words came.
We are all members of the Beiyang family, so we should not fight each other as brothers. For a while, people's hearts changed.
And Lao Yuan in the capital was also panicked.
This time he was really panicked.
I never expected that Nie Li's troops could fight so well.
This was beyond his expectation. He used to think that it was similar to his own army, but now it seems that it is not much different, it is simply too far away.
He quickly said to the secretary: "Go and summon the ministers from several countries, we need help."
But before he finished speaking, he heard news that made him even more shocked.
Jinmen Tangku Pier was captured by Nie Li's men.
It was done by Dongshan Fleet!
At this moment, Nie Li's three heavy cruisers were fully unveiled in front of the world, and the whole world was shocked!
The entire Jinmen was under the threat of Nie Li's warships.
Xiao Duan stabbed him in the back this time.
Openly support Nie Li.
At this point, the two gates protecting the capital were all lost.
Lao Yuan, you are stupid!
