Wang Zhanyuan ran to Henan for help, but at this time Wu Peifu was guarding against Zhang Zuolin's troops in the Northwest Army. He knew that Zhang Zuolin had ambitions to enter the Central Plains and occupy Henan. He stayed in Henan to fight against Zhang Zuolin, so he sent his general Xiao Yaonan to lead a mixed brigade to reinforce Hubei. Wu Peifu himself ran to Beijing and participated in the meeting of the four giants of Zhili. The meeting was Jin Yunpeng, Wu Peifu, Cao Kun and Li Chun. Jin Yunpeng was wandering between the two groups of the Zhili Anhui faction and then jumped from the Anhui faction to the Zhili. Now the Zhili controls the State Council and the Presidential Office, while the Anhui faction controls the Congress. The two sides do not deal with each other, causing the state's government orders to be disapproved. The Presidential Office and the State Council ordered that the Parliament would not approve it, and the Parliament's proposal was rejected. Duan Qirui hated the Presidential Office and the State Council so much that he was tiring about the Anfu faction Congress. Wu Peifu wanted to eat his meat raw.

This is also the reason why Wang Maoru dared to issue orders at will north of the Great Wall. Your central government is in chaos, why should I listen to you?

Hubei Governor Wang Zhanyuan warmly welcomed the reinforcements of Xiao Yaonan, the general under Wu Peifu, to Wuhan, but received a telegram that day that the Beiyang Central Government appointed Wu Peifu as the inspector of the two lakes and Xiao Yaonan as the governor of Hubei. Wang Zhanyuan was stunned and was played with by someone.

After Wu Peifu occupied Hubei, Xiao Yaonan led the Beiyang Army to quickly drive the Hunan Army Lu Diping's troops out of Hubei and invaded Hunan. Zhao Hengxi, Hunan, hurriedly requested peace talks and cut Yuezhou (now Yueyang City, Hunan) to pay Wu Peifu as compensation. He also expressed his loyalty to Wu Peifu, and the Hunan Army joined the Beiyang Army's Wu Peifu's troops. Wu Peifu was also afraid that Zhang Zuolin would be ready and dared not move. So he made peace with Zhao Hengxi. Now Wu Peifu owns Henan, Zhili, Hubei, Hunan, and Shandong provinces, and is in a prosperous place, and has been in a very glorious way. It has been a temporary overwhelming popularity.

Feng Yuxiang, who was hiding in western Hunan, suddenly launched an attack on Sichuan, capturing Sichuan Xiushan County, Qianjiang, Fuling, Wulong, Fengdu, Shiquan, Nanchuan, Zhongxian and other places, and the army headed straight to Chongqing. At that time, Chongqing was occupied by Xiong Kewu, commander-in-chief of Jing**, and Yu Jitang, the Sixth Division of the Sichuan Army. Yu Jitang originally thought that he wanted to take advantage of the Hunan Army's attack on Hubei. However, Wu Peifu's Beiyang Army defeated the Hunan Army so much that he had just led his army into Hubei, and was also hit by a head-on attack. Feng Yuxiang issued a telegram to support the central government and said that he belonged to the Zhili clique and hoped to follow Wu Peifu.

Wu Peifu was naturally Han Xin ordered more troops and was better. He ordered Feng Yuxiang to deal with the work of the Sichuan Army, so Feng Yuxiang took the opportunity to invade Sichuan and his troops were at the city of Chongqing.

After Yu Jietang's 6th Division of Sichuan Army was defeated by Feng Yuxiang, the Chongqing Guardian Liu Xiang immediately dispatched troops to take over Chongqing. At the same time, although the Sichuan Army was formed into a group, Feng Yuxiang, a northerner, wanted to enter Sichuan to arouse the collective alert of the Sichuan Army. Liu Xiang said that Sichuan people defended Sichuan, Liu Wenhui, Deng Xihou and other Sichuan warlords rushed to support immediately, and fought with Feng Yuxiang's troops for three days and three nights. Finally, they defeated Feng Yuxiang's troops. Feng Yuxiang retreated to western Hunan and found that the Hunan Army was approaching, so they had to turn around and run to Hubei, and the Hubei governor Xiao Yao went south to seek remote protection. Sichuan people showed the true nature of Sichuan people here. The characteristics of Sichuan people were that they were not confused about big things and small things were not clear. If there were no outsiders, Sichuan people could be between their own brothers.

The house was demolished and lived in the fields and continued to fight. Russia was dying and lay on the ground to scold his brothers. But once outsiders came, they immediately became energetic, regardless of their own situation, and united to fight with outsiders. As soon as the outsiders ran away, the two brothers continued to fight. Just as the Sichuan Army fought against Japan later, a group of "beggar army" wearing straw sandals and carrying old sleeves with only ten bullets on their bodies dared to fight with the broken iron and well-equipped Japanese Army A-type division, which was enough to see that the Sichuan people were never confused in the face of major issues. Feng Yuxiang thought that the Sichuan warlords could gain a advantage in the melee of the warlords, but unfortunately they kicked the iron plate down. Only 20,000 troops were beaten and only 3,000 troops were left. He embarrassed to Xiao Yao to seek remote protection.

The protagonist of the Zhili War, Wu Peifu's army, grew up completely at this time, with a land of five provinces, with a maximum of 300,000 troops under his command, and would no longer take the Anhui faction seriously. However, Zhang Zuolin occupied the northwest, and his 150,000 Northwest army under his command should not be underestimated. If he wanted to expel the Anhui government, he had to deal with Zhang Zuolin first.

Zhang Zuolin expressed his feelings with the Anhui clan at this time, but in fact he had already had his own little plan. The Anhui clan was about to fall down. Although the Sunset of the Anhui clan was getting stronger, there were many internal conflicts within the Zhili clan. At this time, the battle with the Anhui clan was still united, but if he won, the world would be divided. On the other hand, although the Anhui clan was extremely arrogant, Duan Qirui, the old Anhui clan, was in good health. Even if the Anhui clan could not fight, he would be united. So Zhang Zuolin ordered Yu Zhijiang to go to Luoyang as a representative to secretly meet Wu Peifu, saying that he hoped that the Zhili clan would lead the central government and the Northwest Army would fully support the Zhili clan. The condition was that he wanted to deal with the Jin clan and hoped that the Zhili clan would support it. Zhang Zuolin also knew that it was better to make something real than anything else. If he occupied the richest Shanxi, the military expenditure problem could be solved.

After Zhang and Wu conspired, Wu Peifu agreed to Zhang Zuolin's conditions and helped Zhang Zuolin pay for 20,000 rifles from Wang Maoru National Defense Forces.

In order to deal with the Anhui faction with all his might, Wu Peifu joined forces with the southwest warlords. The southwest warlords were naturally happy to see the Beiyang army biting their dogs, so they shouted desperately that they would never cause trouble for Wu Peifu in the rear. In this way, after the three families united, Wu Peifu was more confident in expelling the Anhui faction.

The Anhui faction was not idle either. Duan Qirui gathered the Anhui faction army to form an army of 200,000 and prepared to divide the troops into three groups. Unfortunately, although the Anhui faction was arrogant, there was no general who was good at fighting. Among the four major kings of Anhui faction, Jin Yunpeng rebelled and became a direct line. Qu Tongfeng and Fu Liangzuo were both defeated repeatedly, while Ni Sichong fell seriously ill and saw that there was no leading general in the Anhui faction.

At that time, Xu Shuzheng also took out the mixed brigade of the Anhui Central Army that he had worked hard to train. Because all of them were Japanese instructors trained by Japanese instructors, they were scary on the surface, namely Wang Yongquan's 24th Mixed Brigade, Song Banghan's 1st Mixed Brigade stationed in Luoyang, Song Ziyang's 2nd Mixed Brigade stationed in Langfang, Chu Qixiang's 3rd Mixed Brigade stationed in Xuanhua, Zhang Dingxun's 4th Mixed Brigade stationed in Luoyang, and Li Ruzhang's 5th Mixed Brigade stationed in Zhangjiakou. Among them, Wang Yongquan, Song Banghan, Song Ziyang, and Zhang Dingxun were all Xu Shuzheng's classmates in the Japanese Army's Non-commissioned Military Academy. Li Ruzhang was a relative of Xu Shuzheng, and Chu Qixiang was also a veteran of the Anhui Army. He was mediocre but loyal to Duan Qirui. Xu Shuzheng led hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Northeast Army, but was beaten to the north, and he was beaten to the point of being so bad that his classmates were.

In order to deal with the war in the Zhili period, Duan Qirui divided the army into two left and right armies. Xu Shuzheng on the left led the Anhui Central Army, and Duan Zhigui on the right. Foreign aid invited Japanese road protection team to protect it, forming an army of more than 100,000, which was also shocking.

Wu Peifu announced the establishment of a stolen government and attacked the traitor government, while Duan Qirui immediately announced the establishment of a stolen government. The two sides issued a telegram to fight those who did not obey the central government's orders. At this time, more than 100,000 Zhi-Corporate troops were more than 100,000, but both sides claimed that they had a 300,000 army to shock the other party and had a great time fighting during the power. However, the quarrels on the mouth did not take action at all. The Zhi-Corporate war had not started yet, but it was already in full swing. It seemed that a big show had laid all the groundwork, and it was just a move.

One day in early March, Wang Maoru was reading the strategic notes written by Babin Guyed. This is the outline of the command of the German infantry platoon-level officers translated by Babin Guyed. Babin Guyed is the founder of the Yakeshi Army Non-commissioned Academy. Even if he assassinated himself, he was for his own country. Wang Maoru's feelings for him were very complicated. If he had not fought in Italy, he would not have achieved his current status, nor would he have the opportunity to sit in front of European, American and Japanese powers. The Yakeshi Army Non-commissioned Academy is full of strong German flavor. When Wang Maoru thought of this, he suddenly felt that it was time to hand over Babin Guyed's bones to his family.

At this time, Yong Xingbao and Jiang Fangzhen led the officers of the General Staff to find Wang Maoru immediately and ask for instructions on how to deal with the war in the Central Plains and whether to take the opportunity to invade the Central Plains.

Wang Maoru looked at the map, thought about it and asked, "Can the General Staff be sure to unify China?"

Yong Xingbao, the new deputy chief of staff, said: "Although unifying China cannot be done, it can occupy several provinces."

Wang Maoru said: "I don't need a few provinces. What I need is that China will determine its war. Tell me, how many troops will be needed by China?"

Several officers looked at each other, but Jiang Fangzhen said, "Eighty-hundred-thousand troops."

"Our army now has 430,000 National Defense Forces, 36,000 armed police forces and 600,000 reserves. China can be determined by a battle." Yong Xingbao said confidently.

Wang Maoru's throat was a little itchy, and he coughed twice, and said, "How much does it cost? How long does it take to get it?"

Jiang Fangzhen said: "Show Shin, if you fight, it will be worth it."

Wang Maoru sighed and said, "You guys, don't I know? Do you think I'm worried about other warlords now? What I'm worried about is the Japanese, Britain, France and the United States, especially the Japanese." He pointed to Shandong and Zhili and said, "Now Shandong and Zhili, railway rights, transportation rights, forest rights, and government bonds borrowed by the Anhui clan. If we take over the central government, we have to take over them all. If we take over them all, what should the people do if we ask us to take back them? If we don't take them back, we will be a stolen government. If we take them back, we will fight with the Japanese. Are we confident that we are now working with the Japanese?"
