Fengxian Jiangshan

"I would suggest that the Russian government make a request to the United Kingdom to put pressure on Japan in the name of the Allied Powers." At this point, Horvath took a sip of vodka and said cursingly: "It's all a damn war, otherwise Russia can crush Smash those yellow-skinned monkeys!"

After Horvath finished speaking, he noticed Zhang Tinglan, and hurriedly said: "Zhang, I definitely didn't mean what you said!" Zhang Tinglan nodded, didn't say anything, but left directly.

Ever since Fengjun used the Russian cavalry that day, it had a huge impact. First, the army in Heilongjiang was unprepared and was defeated. Then news spread that Xu Lanzhou had colluded with the Japanese and attracted Russian cavalry. dissatisfied, so the Russians have to serve the army with false hands and punish Xu Lanzhou.

This statement has its nose and eyes, and Yingshun felt fear at first. Years of experience told Yingshun that as long as the big powers participate, they can hide as far as they want, and absolutely don't make trouble for themselves.

In addition to Yingshun, this news also quickly spread to the ears of the Japanese. They could easily associate Russia with their own behavior. Join forces with Fengjun.

This put the Japanese in a dilemma. They saw that the great powers had no time to look east, so they acted unscrupulously in the Northeast.But now that the Russians are involved, will they get the consent of Britain, France and other countries, or this is the allied powers demonstrating against Japan.

Thinking of many Japanese people, I had to be scruples. At this time, another piece of news came out, which immediately caused a huge sensation and attracted everyone's attention. It turns out that the content of this news is also Quite simply, it was speculated that a strand of the Japanese army had been annihilated.

The evidence was a blurry photograph showing a mass of corpses, numbering in the hundreds, all wrapped in loincloths, exactly the Japanese attire.However, due to the poor quality of the photos, they cannot be distinguished clearly, but this is enough to detonate public opinion.

Just a few days ago, Zhang Zuolin lavishly praised Feng Jun's troops, praising them for annihilating an elite force that was trying to sneak attack Mantie.According to common sense, is this kind of battle with hundreds of people worth writing about? Now that the photos came out, everyone suddenly realized that it turned out that Fengjun wiped out the Japanese. The combat effectiveness of the army.

The great powers were also alarmed, and the Russian envoy contacted those of Britain, France, the United States and other countries, pointing out that the Japanese were directly dispatching troops to interfere in the political situation in Northeast China, and demanded that the great powers unanimously put pressure on Japan.

At this time, the Prime Minister of Japan was Shigenobu Okuma, who has a glorious record of ten years and nine prime ministers in later generations. Changing the Prime Minister is like changing a bed partner in Japan. It is simply too easy.Before World War II, Japan's prime minister was not in a good position. The cabinet collapsed, the prime minister was assassinated, and it was almost commonplace to resign and go to the field. The prime minister was changed every three days.

Okuma Shigenobu is not stable as a prime minister, especially the infamous Article 21 was proposed during his tenure, which greatly aroused anti-Japanese sentiment in China, and many forces in Japan are also dissatisfied. They think that Okuma Shigenobu acted too hastily, which not only angered China, but also attracted the vigilance of the great powers, which was not worth it.

Moreover, Okuma's cabinet bribed elections and various problems of interference in parliament were also exposed. As a result, a strong trend was formed to oust Okuma Shigenobu and replace him with a new prime minister.

At such a precarious juncture, Okuma Shigenobu will secretly support the Kwantung Army to provoke troubles in the three eastern provinces, trying to take the opportunity to expand its power in the Northeast and at the same time ease the pressure in Japan. Japan has always used foreign aggression to divert domestic conflicts. Tradition, this time No exception.

It’s just that the Japanese were once again unfavorable, losing troops and losing generals, and the great powers joined forces to exert pressure, making Okuma Shigenobu’s position even more precarious. He had no choice but to find the most powerful patriarch in Japan, Aritomo Yamagata, hoping to get support from him.

The old guy in Yamagata created the Japanese Army with his own hands, and he threw out the theory of the line of sovereignty and the line of interest, which became the theoretical basis for Japan's outward aggression and expansion. After the death of Ito Hirobumi, Yamagata's power in Japan has reached an appalling level. , if he is ambitious, he can be a Cao Cao. In his eyes, Okuma Shigenobu is just a dog.

The old man was silent for a while, and then said quietly: "Prime Minister, the empire is signing an agreement with Tsarist Russia, do you know about this?"

"I know that when the world situation is changing, the Anglo-Japanese alliance alone can no longer guarantee the safety of the empire. We have formed an ally with Tsarist Russia to guarantee the interests of the empire in Manchuria, and even Guachina has a huge influence on the empire. strategic significance."

"Since you know, why do you want to intervene in the battle of China and destroy the relationship between the empire and Russia?"

"Old man, Zhang Zuolin is a very dangerous opponent. I worry that after he dominates the Northeast, he will become a serious threat to the empire."

"Confused, since the Japan-China War, China has been trampled under the foot of the empire. The empire's eyes should be placed on the great powers. The China people have a tradition of internal fighting. Even if Zhang Zuolin's strength swells, his first choice is Beiyang. Not the empire, from this point of view, the empire should make Zhang Zuolin stronger!"

"Old man, according to your opinion, should the empire stop, let Zhang Zuolin go, and avoid meddling in the affairs of North Manchuria?"

The corner of Yamagata's mouth twitched, and he spit out two more words: "Red deer!" After being scolded by the elder, Okuma Shigenobu's heart went cold.

"The empire must have the face of the empire, ensure the majesty of the empire, and let the Chinese people fear the empire to the depths of their bones! Now that it is done, it cannot be anticlimactic. It must make the Chinese people back down and give the empire greater benefits."

Chapter 243 A Dark Child

Any Chinese who mentions the large number of traitors and puppet troops during the War of Resistance will feel heartbroken. There is no doubt that this is a shame for the entire nation, but there are profound reasons for everything. Why are traitors everywhere in the Republic of China? There is an important The reason is fear, deep-rooted fear!

It is precisely because of fear that a considerable number of people do not hesitate to surrender to the enemy and betray their ancestors, and this sense of fear was cultivated from the Opium War.The repeated failures and the continuous cession of land and compensation have almost crushed the last confidence of the Chinese people, and the whole nation has changed its face.

Youtomo of Shanxian concocted the strategy of invading China. He thought about these things very clearly. Even if it was inappropriate to stir up trouble this time and undermined Japan's strategic deployment, the Japanese could not back down. China had to be subdued in order to Establish an image of Japan as invincible.

Especially this time, 300 Japanese soldiers were wiped out. If it spreads, it will definitely be a slap in the face.

"Prime Minister, you have to shoulder your responsibilities!" After Shanxian finished speaking, he didn't say a word. At this time, the old guy was ready to abandon his son, let the army make trouble first, and after Japan got the benefits, The powers were dissatisfied, so he threw Shigenobu Okuma out and asked him to resign and take responsibility.

Okuma Shigenobu asked for the imperial decree here in Shan County, and prepared like a pug. First of all, he denied that a large number of Japanese soldiers died in the Northeast, but simply stated that a group of Japanese expatriates disappeared for no reason, and asked Fengtian to cooperate. If the missing nationals are found, it is true that Japanese people have been killed. The Empire of Japan will definitely take strong actions to protect its nationals.

After his statement was issued.A large number of Japanese diplomats acted in response, and at the same time put pressure on Duan Qirui from Beiyang and Zhang Zuolin from Fengtian. It was very likely that Japan would use force if the matter was not resolved.

The pressure on Lao Zhang's shoulders increased sharply. Fortunately, Lao Zhang is also prepared. The Japanese can't just do what they say. You have to provide the lost expatriate information, and Fengtian has to check it carefully.

Of course, this is just an excuse, just perfunctory Japan, and Lao Zhang also uses connections.Contacted the United States, Britain, Russia and other countries, and sent some photos to them to prove the fact that Japan was conducting military operations in the Northeast, and asked the big powers to put pressure on them.

In addition, Lao Zhang also sent a secret message to the Beiyang government.Duan Qirui's government is required to come forward to maintain the stability of the Northeast.We cannot sit back and watch the three provinces become corrupted.

Lao Zhang actively used various relationships.The purpose of everything is to delay time and try to stabilize Jilin and Heilongjiang as soon as possible. Only with a solid rear can we continue to deal with the Japanese.

At this time, the situation in Jilin had begun to improve. Sun Anhu led the army and quickly occupied the provincial capital Jilin.Zhang Tinglan sent troops to control the railway hub between Changchun and Harbin. Basically, the overall situation was guaranteed, and the rest was to continue to eliminate the bandits and restore local law and order.

In addition, the situation in Heilongjiang has also reversed.Although Xu Lanzhou is the most powerful in Heilongjiang, he has not been able to cover the sky with one hand. Among them, Yingshun, the commander of the cavalry brigade, Ba Yinger, the commander of the first brigade of the First Division of Heilongjiang, and Bi Guifang, the governor of the province, are not weak.

These three people are all Manchurians. Originally, according to Zhang Tinglan's idea, they should all be eradicated to avoid the root of the disaster.However, Zhang Zuolin believed that the current situation was too tense to make a fuss, so he persuaded these three people, especially after Yingshun knew that Feng Jun still had contact with the Russians, he was even more unwilling to cooperate with Xu Lanzhou.

Lao Zhang promised to guarantee their status, and all three of them stood up against Xu Lanzhou, and at this time Wu Junsheng defeated Xu Lanzhou's troops, and then with Bi Guifang's cooperation, Wu Junsheng entered Qiqihar smoothly.

"The overall situation in Heilongjiang has been decided!" Zhang Zuoxiang received Wu Junsheng's telegram, and there was a smile on his face. No matter how many troubles he went through, at least Fengjun extended his tentacles to Heilongjiang, and Jilin was not lost. The deal was still profitable. , and still made a lot of money!

"Father, that is indeed the case, but we are still short of the last hurdle!"

"You mean the Japanese?"

"That's right, if the Japanese continue to exert strong pressure on Fengtian, we won't have time to integrate the three provinces, and even have to transfer the army back to Fengtian to deal with the Japanese. The two provinces will only gain and lose."

"Little Japan suffered a big loss this time. 300 people died. They lost face and reputation. No wonder they would let it go! Zhuoyan, tell me the truth, do you have any other preparations, or else this It’s not a good pass.”

"Father, to be honest, when you were transferred to Dongbian Road, I came up with a plan to set up defenses along the Yalu River. I have already sent a group of troops in charge of reclamation. After cleaning up, I found There are [-] to [-] North Korean illegal immigrants."

Zhang Zuoxiang's brain obviously didn't turn fast enough. He couldn't adapt to Zhang Tinglan's jumping mode. What do these North Koreans have to do with dealing with Japan?

Zhang Tinglan also saw his father's doubts, so he explained: "Father, do you know about the Korean Volunteer Movement a few years ago?"

"Of course I know. It was the last few years of the late Qing Dynasty. Japan was about to annex North Korea. It turned out that the North Korean army was disbanded. The soldiers all stood up against the Japanese. I heard that tens of thousands of people participated, but they were all suppressed by Japan. Now, why are you bringing this up?"

"During the cleanup, I found a group of North Korean volunteers. They could not survive in the country, so they escaped across the Yalu River and went to China to settle down. There were no less than 1000 of them."

Zhang Zuoxiang was not stupid, so he quickly figured out what Zhang Tinglan meant, and hurriedly said, "Zhuoyan, are you going to use the method of besieging Wei and saving Zhao to use these Koreans to make trouble and attract the energy of the Japanese?"

"Yes, although I hate these Goryeo sticks, I have to admit that they are still very resistant. The North Koreans who fled to China were not reconciled to failure, and even organized to hope to restore the country. And I also heard that they were The death of Li Xi, Emperor Gojong of North Korea who was imprisoned in Japan, can just be used as an excuse to make the North Koreans torment."

"Zhuoyan, will you shoot yourself in the foot if you do this? If we want the North Koreans to make trouble, we have to provide them with weapons and funds. As long as they fight over, the Japanese will definitely know that these people are from Edom. The three provinces are used as bases, isn't this an excuse for them?"

Zhang Zuoxiang did indeed ask about the key point. The gap in strength between Fengtian and Japan is too great. If the Japanese get hold of Fengtian, it will not be a restraint of Japan's energy, but a game of fire. The consequences will be very serious. Therefore, Zhang Zuoxiang was inevitably worried.

The last time the Japanese military column was robbed by the Fengjun, it almost caused a big trouble. Fortunately, Zhang Tinglan ignited the conflicts in Japan, and the rice riot broke out, which made the Japanese government utterly devastated, and gave Fengtian a chance to breathe.

Of course Zhang Zuoxiang was very clear about this matter, and he also knew the danger. If there was even a slight mistake in the calculation, it would bring disaster to Fengjun, so he had to be cautious.

"Father, don't worry, I won't foolishly let the North Koreans use our place as a base and then attack the Japanese. Isn't this causing trouble for the upper body? We want to attack the Japanese in an asymmetrical way. Shake the foundation of their rule in North Korea."

In fact, Zhang Tinglan has thought about it carefully, expecting the Koreans to fight against the Japanese with sharp swords and guns, it will not work at all, even if they are asked to fight guerrilla warfare, the peninsula is small, and the heads of the Koreans are like elms. , decided that they couldn't play guerrilla warfare at all.

Moreover, if guerrilla warfare wants to develop, it will take a long time. It is not enough to attract the attention of the Japanese, and it will not have a sensational effect. The Japanese will continue to put pressure on Fengtian. After thinking about it, Zhang Tinglan thought of it. The 911/[-] incident for later generations.

The shocking blow of the terrorists has completely reversed the international strategy of a superpower, and its influence can even be compared with the Pearl Harbor incident. This kind of terrorist attack has the least cost, the greatest profit, and the best shocking effect. Shake the Japanese rule over Korea.
