Zhang Nanhui, the leader of communist party in Yaozhou City, pretended to be a "revolutionary army", colluded with the Qing government, burned and looted, and did many evils, making the city restless and the people miserable. Jingwumu ordered Hu Jingyi to destroy it with his troops. Hu Jingyi led his troops, selected 40 cavalry, drove Yaozhou directly, and beat more than 300 bandit soldiers guarding the city out of the water and fled in panic.
The victory of Yaozhou City, with fewer victories, made the bandits in Weibei discouraged and disappeared, and the people all cheered. Hu Jingyi's fame also spread from now on.
Under the impact of the revolutionary wave, the shaky Qing government panicked. While attacking Wuhan, they quickly ordered the Qing army in Henan and Gansu to attack and surround the revolutionary army in Shaanxi.
In order to meet the attack of the Qing army, the Shaanxi military government sent troops to Tongguan while resisting the enemy from the west. Unexpectedly, Gansu was fierce, and the western front was in flight, which matched Xi' an. Jingwumu immediately sent Hu Jingyi to lead two battalions to reinforce the west. Hu Jingyi led the army to take the Three Watertowns, and the Qing army abandoned the city and fled. Hu Jingyi, in the 56: 00 attack, surrounded Zhang Hong town, guarded the pass, repeatedly repelled the repeated impact of the enemy, was stuck in the retreat of the Qing army, and the Qing army fled in confusion.
Zhang Hong Town's victory turned the tide on the Western Front. Hu Jingyi, the fledgling young general, has shown his outstanding military command ability. Due to the compromise and weakness of the bourgeoisie, Yuan Shikai easily stole the achievements of the Revolution of 1911 and became the president of the Republic of China. Shaanxi Taiwei was changed to viceroy, and Zhang Fenghui betrayed the revolution and became Yuan Shikai's lackeys, attacking and crowding out revolutionaries everywhere. Jingwumu, Guo Xiren and others had to retire. The unexpected political upheaval, especially the retirement of Jingwumu, made Hu Jingyi disheartened.
19 12 autumn, Hu Jingyi went to Japan with Zhang and Feng Yudong and entered Zhenwu Preparatory School to study military affairs. After the introduction of Yu Youren and Jingwumu, Hu Jingyi was lucky enough to study in Haoran Lu Society organized by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and met Dr. Sun Yat-sen whom he had admired for a long time. This became another new turning point in Hu Jingyi's revolutionary career. Hu Jingyi said to Dr. Sun Yat-sen, "I must go to Beijing tomorrow. Please ask Mr. Wang to take charge of the big plan." This oath later became the lifelong goal of General Hu Jingyi.
After studying in Haoran Road Society for several months, Hu Jingyi is ready to return to China. When he left, Dr. Sun Yat-sen held Hu Jingyi's hand and said, "Your hometown is in Shaanxi, and the great event of Shaanxi revolution is entrusted to you." With the great trust of Dr. Sun Yat-sen and the great revolutionary ideal, Hu Jingyi embarked on the journey of returning to China.
When Hu Jingyi returned home, it was the time when Yuan Shikai trampled on the plot of * * * and proclaimed himself.
In order to meet the needs of restoration, Yuan Shikai entrusted his subordinates and former Qing colleagues with the important task of taking control of the country's military and political power. At the same time, he sent troops to all parts of the country to seize local political power. Lu is an important military and political official sent by Yuan Shikai to Shaanxi.
After Lu arrived in Shaanxi, he arrested revolutionaries, persecuted progressives and harmed the people. People call him "Butcher Lu". Shaanxi revolution is at a low ebb.
Hu Jingyi returned to Weibei, Shaanxi via Hebei and Shanxi, and found Zhang and Feng Yudong who returned home early. Through them, he got to know Liu Yuncheng, Shi Kexuan and others.
At this time, Guo Xiren, an old member of the League and a famous revolutionary in Shaanxi, lived in seclusion at the foot of Huashan Mountain and secretly engaged in revolutionary activities in the name of giving lectures. Get the whereabouts of Guo Xiren, Hu Jingyi immediately let Feng Yudong and others to meet Guo Xiren at the foot of Huashan Mountain, and convey to him Dr. Sun Yat-sen's care and instructions for the northwest revolution. Analyze the situation in China and Shaanxi with him. In order to rebuild the revolutionary armed forces, Hu Jingyi decided to take refuge in Chen. Hu Jingyi went to visit Chen in Pucheng County, Weibei. Chen only gave him an idle job as a policeman. After all kinds of efforts, Hu Jingyi finally won the trust of Chen, became the company commander of the reserve company, and was soon promoted to guerrilla battalion commander, stationed in Fuping.
19 15 12, Yuan Shikai defied the world and openly betrayed * * * to ascend to the throne of the emperor, which aroused the anger of the people all over the country. Dr. Sun Yat-sen immediately published "Exhortation for Yuan", and General Cai E declared Yunnan independence and set out to beg Yuan.
Guo Jian, Cao Shiying and Gao Jun, etc. In Shaanxi, he actively responded to Dr. Sun Yat-sen's call and raised the banner of begging for Yuan in Baishui County in March 19 16. Hu Jingyi sent Zhang and Yue to contact the People's Army of Weibei counties, assembled old men, and at the same time used contradictions to do Chen's work, preparing for the uprising.
At the beginning of May this year, Lu Chengwu, Lu's son, led more than 3,000 "hardcore" people to Fuping. Hu Jingyi thinks this is an excellent opportunity to beg Yuan by land. At that time, there were only over 300 guerrilla battalions in Hu Jingyi with 200 guns. Compared with Liu Chengwu's strength, it's like throwing eggs at a stone. However, Hu Jingyi, who was bold and cautious, was familiar with the art of war. In the name of visiting Lv Chengwu, he mastered the deployment of the "land" army in detail. He made a surprise attack and captured Liu Chengwu alive.
Hearing the news of Hu Jingyi's capture alive, people from all walks of life rushed to Fuping, and were furious, demanding the killing of Lu's son, and elected Hu Jingyi as the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Defence Force. Hu Jingyi calmly analyzed the situation at that time. In order to preserve the revolutionary forces, he pushed Chen as the commander-in-chief of the National Defence Force.
After Chen was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the National Defence Force, the soldiers marched into Angola in two ways. Lu was so scared that he had to agree to the request that he immediately left Shaanxi and gave up his position as governor of Shaanxi.
After Chen became the governor of Shaanxi, he betrayed the National Defence Force and became an accomplice of Yuan Shikai. After Yuan Shikai's downfall, he took refuge in Duan and, as usual, continued to crowd out and crack down on revolutionaries. Chen planted his cronies in Hu Jingyi's army in an attempt to contain and monitor Hu Jingyi's actions. And Hu Jingyi's garrison was transferred from Weibei to Longjuzhai in southern Shaanxi, which restricted its development and cut off Hu Jingyi's contact with Cao Shiying, Guo Jian and others. Attempt to divide and disintegrate the national defense forces by radical means.
Hu Jingyi knew Chen's plot for a long time, so he played along, taking defense as the attack. After being stationed in Longjuzhai, Hu Jingyi reorganized his troops and carried out training activities. To Chen's surprise, Hu Jingyi was not restricted in Longjuzhai, but expanded his troops from 18 to 15, and his military quality was greatly improved. 19 17 In September, Sun Yat-sen set up a government to protect the French army in Guangzhou, served as a grand marshal of the navy and army, and launched a war to protect France. Cao Shiying, Gao Jun and Xi 'an's loyalty in Weibei responded to Sun Yat-sen's uprising and raised the banner of cutting old sections.
19 18 1 month, Zhang stationed in Sanyuan launched a surprise attack on the defenders sent by Chen to deal with the national defense forces. With a battalion, Zhang Yi 'an annihilated a brigade and a regiment of Chen and won the Sanyuan Uprising. Later, Hu Jingyi and Cao Shiying also rushed to Sanyuan, where the two armies joined forces and established Shaanxi Guo Jingjun.
The establishment of Jing made Chen feel panic and uneasy. After Chen's plot to sow discord was exposed, he became angry from embarrassment and openly sent troops to attack Sanyuanjing National Army Command. Hu Jingyi and Cao Shiying took the initiative by surprise and smashed Chen's attack in one fell swoop. Jing pursued the victory. Except for some troops who stayed in Sanyuan, the rest of the troops were divided into two roads, east and west, and surrounded An. Zhang led the marked army into Ganjiazhai near An, and smashed the attack of Chen San's battalion with one battalion. After the war of Jingyang Sanyuan, Hu Jingyi sent five men, including Feng Yudong, Li Huchen, Kang Hou and Deng Baoshan, to support Zhang. Jing Guojun destroyed Chen's defense line in the western suburbs of Xi 'an with a fierce offensive, and surrounded Xi 'an from the west and south.
Cao Shiying, Guo Jian and Jun Gao led the East Route Army to build Lianke New Building, Shilipu Temple and Guang Tai Temple, reaching Han Sen Village and surrounding Xi from east and north.
Under the attack of the East and West armies in Beijing, Chen panicked and asked the Beiyang government for reinforcements. On the other hand, as the governor said, he turned to Liu Zhenhua in western Henan for help.
Liu Zhenhua is an ambitious and anticlimactic man who has long been dissatisfied with his existence in a corner of western Henan. Chen Xiang's asking for help is to beat the dog on a full stomach, which coincides with Liu Zhenhua's ambition. So, Liu Zhenhua was advancing 5,000 troops into Tongguan. Liu Zhenhua's entry into the customs is very unfavorable to Jing. Hu Jingyi sized up the situation and ordered Jing Guo Jun to withdraw from Xi 'an. The marked army returned to Sanyuan, Jingyang and Fuping, taking Jinghe as the defense line. The East Route Army returned to its original post in Weibei to rest.
Although Jing is brave in combat, he lacks unified command, which is a taboo for military strategists. Hu Jingyi, Cao Shiying and Liu Yuncheng discussed and decided to invite Mr. Yu Youren, who is in Shanghai, to return to the main force in Shaanxi.
19 18 In August, Yu Youren returned to Weibei from Shanghai and served as the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Guo Jingjun. Zhang Fang, who came back from Beijing, served as deputy commander-in-chief and the whole army was unified. The divided Jing has a unified command since then.
Although Jing had a unified command, the war with Chen was temporarily stopped. But Jing is still surrounded by Chen, and the situation is still very dangerous. Hu Jingyi decided to develop into the weak east surrounded by Chen. Hu Jingyi went to Gushi in Weinan to find his old friend Jiang Hongmo. Jiang Hongmo suggested that Hu Jingyi and Chen hold peace talks. Hu Jingyi accepted Jiang Hongmo's suggestion. But surprisingly, Chen has no sincerity for peace talks at all. During the peace talks, Hu Jingyi was kidnapped back to Xi 'an and detained.
1920 is a year of warlord melee. The straight army reached Shaanxi and wanted to oust Chen. Chen was desperate and decided to make peace on the condition of releasing Hu Jingyi. In this way, Hu Jingyi ended his prison life for nearly three years and returned to Weibei as the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Jingguo Army.
In May, Cao Kun's Beijing municipal government ordered Chen to be removed from his post as Shaanxi overseer and replaced by Yan, a teacher directly under him. In July, Yan, Wu Xintian and Feng Yuxiang led the troops into Shaanxi. Chen is prepared to resist by force. Feng Yuxiang secretly contacted Hu Jingyi. Under the attack of Feng Yuxiang and Hu Jingyi, Chen collapsed and Chen fled to Nanshan. Yan entered Shaanxi and replaced Anhui with Zhili. For Jing Guojun, it is tantamount to driving wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door. When Yan entered Shaanxi, he first pointed his hostile finger at Jing. Shortly after his arrival in Shaanxi, Yan instructed Feng Yuxiang to trap and kill Guo Jian, commander of the First Route Army of Jing Guojun. This quick success and instant benefit aroused the anger and dissatisfaction of Jing soldiers and was reprimanded by his boss Wu. Yan was short of breath and committed suicide by taking poison. Feng Yuxiang took over as Shaanxi overseer.
After Feng Yuxiang came to power, like Yan, he did not give up his attempt to destroy Jing. However, he learned Yan's lesson and adopted a tactful approach. He sent someone to mediate and tried to compile Jing, but there was no result.
Wu is eyeing up in Luoyang. Feng Yuxiang controls most of Xi, Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi. Cao Shiying, Gao Jun and Hu Jingyi. Sticking to Weibei, the strength is only 20 thousand, the equipment is backward and the salary is insufficient. The situation is very unfavorable to Jing, and Hu Jingyi and others worry about Jing's future day and night.
Liu Yuncheng and Xu Tongxi proposed to Hu Jingyi to accept the adaptation, temporarily change the flag, preserve their power, and go east to Tongguan, with the consent of Hu Jingyi.
In order to stabilize the situation and ease the contradiction between Feng and Hu, Beiyang government sent He Sui to Shaanxi to mediate, and decided to organize the Ministry into a division, with Hu as the teacher and directly under Wu.
1922 In April, the first war broke out in Zhifeng. Wu Fupei ordered Feng Yuxiang to move to Henan. In order to move eastward to Tongguan and seek development, Hu Jingyi also decided to lead the troops into the Central Plains.
As soon as Feng Yuxiang arrived in Zhengzhou, he was attacked by Zhao Ya, a warlord from Henan. He was in an emergency in Hu Jingyi and asked for reinforcements. Hu Jingyi let bygones be bygones and immediately attacked and solved the siege of Zhengzhou. Zhengzhou World War I changed Feng Yuxiang's hostility to Hu Jingyi. This laid the foundation for the alliance between Feng and Hu in the future.
Although Feng and Hu won the counter-offensive in Zhengzhou, they were not appreciated by Wu, but became the targets of attack and exclusion. Feng Yuxiang went to Henan as a overseer for less than half a year, and was transferred to Beijing Nanyuan by Wu to sit on the bench. Hu Jingyi was appointed as the ambassador of Beijing-Han Railway, based in Shunde (Xingtai, Hebei), responsible for the task of protecting roads from Zhengding to Zhangde (Anyang, Henan).
1923 February, a "2.27" general strike broke out in Han Jing railway. Wu ordered the suppression of workers, but Hu Jingyi refused to carry out Wu's orders. Dissatisfied with Hu Jingyi's practice, Wu ordered Hu Jingyi to attack the Northern Expeditionary Army south. Hu Jinyi once again refused Wu's order, on the pretext of poor weapons and insufficient salary.
Cao Kun's bribery and Wu's policy of "unification by force" intensified various internal and external contradictions. With the support of Sun Yat-sen, Hu Jingyi, Sun Yue and Feng Yuxiang formed the Anti-Direct Alliance.
1924 65438+ 10 In October, Sun Yat-sen presided over the first Kuomintang Congress in Guangzhou. Clearly put forward the revolutionary goal of opposing imperialism and overthrowing warlords. After the meeting, Sun Yat-sen sent someone to convey the spirit of the meeting to Hu Jingyi, instructing him to unite with the progressive forces in the north and launch a struggle against the direct warlords.
1September, 924, the "Jiangsu-Zhejiang War" broke out, which opened the prelude to the second direct service war, and the moment that Hu Jingyi was looking forward to finally arrived. He immediately agreed to Liu Yuncheng and Xu Tongxi's plan to overthrow Cao He and destroy Wu.
Hu Jingyi analyzed the internal situation of Cao and Wu, and chose Feng Yuxiang, who had the greatest influence and the deepest contradiction with Wu, as the joint focus. Hu Jingyi invited Sun Yuexian to see Feng Yuxiang, and then sent Li Zhongsan to see Feng Yuxiang. Feng Yuxiang agreed to cooperate with Hu Jingyi and made a plan to overthrow Cao Kun, solve Cao Wu and drive Puyi out of the Forbidden City. Major policies have been set, and Feng Yuxiang ordered Hu Jingyi to lead the Ministry of Fire into Beijing. The triangular alliance between Hu, Sun and Feng was formally formed.
