Under Li Donghan's orders, all the officers immediately took action and sealed off the North Drill Ground camp. The 49th Association entered a state of combat readiness!
He took out the guns that were originally sealed and distributed bullets to every soldier. He completely monitored the North Drill Ground camp.
Faced with Li Donghan's order, the three of them instinctively felt that something was wrong, but they did not know what to do.
Li Donghan's approach was not wrong. After all, it was a time of turmoil, and there was no telling where the revolutionary party would cause trouble.
The 49th Association entering a state of combat readiness would undoubtedly be able to suppress the rebellion in the first place.
But thinking about it carefully, it was the new army that rebelled in Hubei! At this time, the whole country was probably worried that the new army in the province would start a rebellion. The actions of the new army in eastern Guangdong seemed to be a little like a thief shouting to stop a thief!
However, Li Donghan had already given the order, and they had no chance to express their opinions. The North Drill Ground camp was sealed off.
The 49 Mixed Associations were ready to suppress the rebellion at any time!
This was also Li Donghan's goal. He wanted to use the name of guarding against the revolutionary party to get the 49th Mixed Society into a state of war preparation and mobilize them!
Whether they would suppress the rebellion or do something else would depend on Li Donghan's orders!
As soon as the news of the uprising spread, Li Donghan made a prompt decision and sealed off the North Drill Ground camp. The others also received the news.
The Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Mingqi, and the General of Hehua City, Feng Shan, were the first to know. After seeing the notice, they all gasped.
They knew that the situation was about to change. Both of them were firm and stubborn people. Feng Shan, on the other hand, was directly a Manchu.
Zhang Mingqi had suppressed the revolutionary rebellion many times. His methods were ruthless. No less than a thousand members of the revolutionary party had died in his hands. If the revolutionary party succeeded, how could he still have a way out?
For the sake of their own lives, the two of them had an urgent discussion. In the end, there was no good solution. The matter in Hubei was beyond their reach.
As for Eastern Guangdong, they had already set up tight control to prevent the revolutionary party from causing trouble. Now, they could only continue to increase their strength and not give the revolutionary party any chance.
"Lord Governor, this is almost done, but I'm still a little worried!”Feng Shan said in a serious voice.
The two of them had already agreed on many things before. They believed that no matter how the revolutionary party tormented them, it would be useless! However, there was one thing that Feng Shan was still worried about.
As a Manchu, he had reached the most dangerous moment. He had to use all his strength to stabilize East Guangdong!
Zhang Mingqi also thought of Fengshan's worries and nodded."To be honest, I'm also a little worried about the new army!”
"The new army has always been the center of revolutionary rebellions. Not to mention the rebellion in Hubei this time, just thinking about the rebellion of the new army in our Hua City last year is worrying!”
Zhang Mingqi said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing with darkness. He was only in his thirties this year and was originally a trusted aide of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Cen Chunxuan.
In the end, he betrayed Cen Chunxuan and joined Yuan Shiqing, obtaining the position of Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. One had to know that Yuan Shiqing was Cen Chunxuan's arch-enemy!
The two of them fought for many years, one in the south and the other in the north. In the end, Yuan Shiqing won! The position that he had obtained through betrayal undoubtedly made Zhang Mingqi cherish this opportunity even more.
He absolutely could not let the Revolutionary Party's rebellion succeed.
"The new army is now under the control of Li Donghan. I know a little about this person. His father used to be the minister of the Ministry of War, and he studied in Delizhi. It doesn't seem like a place where the revolutionary party is concentrated in Japan and America!”
"Lord Zhang Renjun and Li Zhun both think highly of him. After serving in the new army for so many years, they have never heard of him having any dealings with the revolutionary party! The most important thing was that he had been eliminating the revolutionary elements in the new army!”
"I can tell that he doesn't like those revolutionary parties who only know how to assassinate and riot! It shouldn't be a big problem! But we can't be too relaxed with him! It was even hard to say if there were any revolutionary elements hidden among his subordinates!”Zhang Mingqi said in a deep voice.
The problems caused by the new army in recent years were enough to make them pay attention. At this critical moment, the first thing they thought of was how to guard against the new army.
Even though Li Donghan seemed to be quite reassuring, they had already reached the point where they were jittery. The new army was the one who was worried!
Speaking of which, the Manchu Dynasty was quite miserable. Before the new army was trained, they were bullied by the foreign powers. After the new army was formed, they were directly destroyed by the new army!
He dug a hole for himself!
"That's right! Although Li Donghan was not a big problem, it was hard to guarantee that his subordinates were fine. At a time like this, they could not let down their guard!”Feng Shan nodded.
The two of them had a good impression of Li Donghan. This was mainly because Li Donghan's silver had worked last time. They had taken advantage of him!
However, the main problem now was the new army!
"I think we can only let Li Donghan suffer this time! The Qing Dynasty is at a critical moment. I believe he can understand our difficulties!”Zhang Mingqi said softly.
Fengshan nodded." That's for the best. I'll get Tashan to bring the patrol unit to the North Drill Ground and temporarily put away the new army's weapons to prevent the revolutionary elements from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble!"”
"Also, let Li Donghan rest for a period of time. Let General 49 take charge and thoroughly investigate the revolutionary members of the 49 Association! This time, he had to kill one as an example! The Revolutionaries didn't dare to move!”
Feng Shan said with killing intent, but no matter how he expressed it, he could not hide his true purpose. He did not believe Li Donghan!
He didn't even believe that all the Han people would let Qi replace Li Donghan and lead the 49 associations! Because Qi Nai was a Manchu, he believed it!
He also wanted Ta Shan to put away the weapons of the new army and completely cut off the possibility of the 49 mixed associations rebelling.
If this matter could really be implemented, it would indeed be very effective. In the original time and space, they used this method to prevent the revolutionary party from causing any trouble in eastern Guangdong even when most of the southern provinces were independent!
But now, the one in charge of the new army was Li Donghan. He had been preparing for this day for a long time!
Let General Li Donghan give up his power? Make the 49th Mixed Society surrender in humiliation? It could only be said that Fengshan and Zhang Mingqi had imagined things too beautifully!
They had still underestimated the viciousness of the human heart and Li Donghan!
