Fengxian Jiangshan

The sphere of influence has expanded from one province to three provinces, the army has changed from one division to five divisions, and Fengjun's progress is still in an all-round way.Business developed rapidly, finance became basically independent, and many factories appeared, and the government's fiscal revenue continued to increase.

According to the current data, Fengjun is at least ten times stronger than before, especially the Japanese are puzzled by the source of the Fengjun's arms. In fact, during World War I, the squadron purchased most of the Japanese arms, and the Japanese eliminated them. The Thirty-type rifles are continuously exported to China.

However, the Fengjun was not equipped with Japanese-style ordnance. Instead, it prepared a large number of Russian-style munitions. The source of these arms is worth thinking about. Whether they were given by the Russians on their own initiative, or Fengjun used some means to obtain them. clear.

There is another thing that makes Akajiri Zhengsuke restless, that is, a large number of factories have appeared in the three eastern provinces, all of which are heavy industries, including steel factories and power plants, and Fengjun's arsenal is also constantly expanding, one in Fengtian, one in Jilin The Japanese don't quite know how much output an arsenal, especially in Jilin, can produce and what it can produce.

Putting all these information together, Akajiri Masasuke discovered a fact that horrified him. Under the eyes of the Japanese, the two legs of the military and economics of the Feng family have already established a certain foundation. As long as time passes, they will definitely grow stronger. .Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer, and hastily wrote a report to Tokyo, requesting to strengthen the intelligence penetration of Fengjun to make up for the negligence for a period of time.

In addition, Akajiri Masasuke believes that it is necessary to take practical actions to curb the development of the Fengjun. When I arrived at Shuai's mansion, I found Lao Zhang.

As soon as he met Akajiri Masasuke, he was very solemn, and said to Zhang Zuolin: "General Zhang, the imperial government and Russia are in an alliance. We will never allow our allies to be attacked. I think Fengjun must stop military operations with Russia."

"The Russians bullied Feng Jun's house, so do we want us to wait to be stabbed?"

"General Zhang, this is the last advice from the imperial government. If the Fengjun does not obey, we will stop the Fengjun from using the Middle East Road. The imperial government will do what it says!"

Chapter 324 Encirclement and Annihilation

The South-Manchuria Railway connects Fengtian and Changchun, and is the most important transportation line for the northward transportation of materials from the three eastern provinces. Especially during wartime, the role of railway transportation is unparalleled. At this time, the Japanese suddenly proposed to cut off the railway transportation, and Zhang Zuolin frowned immediately. up.

"Mr. Consul General, is this a threat from your country?"

"General Zhang, the imperial government has good intentions and hopes that you can stop the war with the Russian government and negotiate peacefully, but if you don't listen, the empire has to take some tough measures, and all the consequences should be borne by Fengtian."

When Lao Zhang heard this, he was almost annoyed. He snorted, and then said: "You threatened Fengtian's safety, but it turned out to be our fault. Is there such a reason in the world? You manage the Nanman Railway True, but this railway is within the territory of China, so we should have the right to use the railway, if you cut off the railway privately, what is that?"

"The railway is for economic purposes and should not involve military issues. Especially since Fengtian is at war with Russia, this is something the imperial government does not want to see. Therefore, from now on, no military supplies from the Fengtian army can pass through the Middle East Road."

Akajiri Zhengsuke was very peaceful when he spoke, but the more peaceful he was, the more he would make Lao Zhang angry, and he wanted to tear this guy to pieces.Every time he deals with the Japanese, Lao Zhang thinks that he has seen the most shameless face, but the Japanese will break this record next time. This is called not being the most shameless, only more shameless.

Akajiri is helping this guy. He is full of lies. Railways have always been closely connected with the military. When can't transport military supplies?

"Mr. Consul General, Russia took the initiative to invade China, and the soldiers and civilians of Fengtian rose up to resist. If your country insists on cutting off the railway line, it will undoubtedly cause great damage to the friendship between the two sides, and your country will bear all the consequences."

Zhang Zuolin has already seen through the Japanese. When Zhang Tinglan regained the Middle East Road, he repeatedly told Lao Zhang that the Japanese are unreliable. If they do not control the railway in their own hands, the Japanese can use the railway in case of war. As a threat, pull Fengjun's hind legs.As soon as the words were finished, they were already verified.

"General Zhang, in my humble opinion, the conflict between Fengtian and Russia is entirely caused by your attack on the Middle East Road. If Fengtian can hand over the Middle East Road, it will be jointly managed by China, Japan and Russia. The imperial government is naturally willing to let you use it. The Middle East Road. You may even be willing to play around and let the Russians accept this proposal, which is a good thing for all parties.”

Speaking of this, how can Lao Zhang not understand the ghosts of the Japanese? They still have a wishful thinking of intervening in the Middle East Road, but Lao Zhang also knows it.This is absolutely unacceptable, otherwise the entire three eastern provinces will fall under the control of the Japanese, and Fengjun will be doomed.

But if the request of the Japanese is not agreed, the railway will be cut off.The supply of more than 1 soldiers on the front line will be cut off. Don’t look at Zhang Tinglan’s large number of immigrants to Jilin, but there is still a long way to go before the development. The economic center of the three eastern provinces is still in Fengtian, and most of the war supplies are still It must be transported by Fengtian.

If the Japanese cut off the railway line, the impact on the front line will undoubtedly be huge. Although Lao Zhang is calm on the surface, his heart is already overwhelmed. If the logistics supply is lost, can the Fengjun defeat the Russians? , This is something that no one knows, and Lao Zhang has to be anxious.

At this moment, Sun Liechen came in hurriedly from the outside with a telegram in his hand. Seeing that Akajiri Masasuke was also here, he didn't say anything, but sent the telegram to Lao Zhang.

Zhang Zuolin took the telegram, glanced at it, and his face showed ecstasy. Just now, he put aside all the anxiety in his heart, lightly patted the telegram on the table, glanced at Akajiri Masasuke, and said slowly: "Mr. Consul General, I would like to inform you of good news. The heroic Fengjun soldiers have completely surrounded the Russian army. The victory or defeat is at hand. I'm afraid some people will waste their efforts!"

Hearing Lao Zhang's words, Akajiri Masasuke's face suddenly changed wildly. He threatened Fengjun just now, but when he turned his head, he was slapped severely by him, which immediately made his face turn red, his head full of gold stars, and even I can't find the southeast and northwest.

He never thought that Fengjun's combat effectiveness would be so strong. Masasuke Akajiri had also analyzed it before the war. Although the Russians had many domestic problems, the foundation of the army was still there. It was already remarkable that Fengjun could stop the Russian army.

But now the Feng army not only blocked the Russian army, but also surrounded the Russians. This is simply beyond expectations. If the Feng army wiped out the Russians, what is the use of them cutting off the railway? This is not a white offence. what!

Akajiri Masasuke's heart was in a mess. What he couldn't accept the most was how the Feng army's combat effectiveness had become so strong that it could compete with the great powers. What happened in the Feng army to make a bandit army become so powerful? After becoming a strong team, his heart was full of doubts and puzzles.

The changes in the situation have exceeded Akajiri Masasuke's estimate, he had to rearrange his response, and this guy could only leave in embarrassment.

Seeing his back, Zhang Zuolin spat fiercely: "Damn it, these Japanese devils are really fucking nothing. They are planning to cut off the Manchurian Railway and want us to give up the Middle East Road. They are nothing but bastards." !"

Sun Liechen's face also became gloomy, and he sighed and said, "Yuting, the railway is the blood of the body. If it is in the hands of the Japanese, they can cut it off at any time, making it difficult for us to operate. It is equivalent to grasping our rise and fall. I only now fully understand Zhuoyan’s foresight, the railway is too important, no matter how much we pay, we will take back the Middle East Road, and we can no longer be controlled by others.”

"It's not just the Middle East Road, we have to find a way to bypass the Manchuria Railway and directly connect Changchun and Fengtian. We don't have the strength to take back the Manchurian Railway for the time being, but we also want to make this railway a waste product." Lao Zhang fiercely Said: "I have arranged for someone to contact Mr. Zhan Tianyou, and asked him to go north to help us plan the railway. As soon as the matter on the Middle East Road is over this time, we will start construction immediately and use all the financial resources of the three eastern provinces. The railway is repaired, the little devil will never try to blackmail us, I, Zhang, will not be manipulated by anyone!"

In fact, the matter of road construction has been mentioned more than once. Zhang Tinglan, Yang Yuting, Wang Yongjiang and others have successively made requests to overhaul roads, especially after a large number of immigrants, and to use sufficient labor to overhaul roads. The basic requirement is that they can be side by side. Run two big carriages.

But obviously this is not enough, we must use the railway with greater transport capacity and faster speed. Zhang Zuolin has made up his mind, and Sun Liechen is also quite supportive. Eliminate these Russian troops, and most of the troubles on the Middle East Road have been solved."

"Don't relax, maybe the Russians will send more troops over, we must be fully prepared, and we must also guard against the Japanese cutting off the railway, you immediately organize all the carriages in Fengtian, In addition, we also contacted the industrial group to organize transport capacity as much as possible, and when we really need it, even if we carry it on our shoulders and push it with a cart, we must overcome this hurdle!"

Recovering the Middle East Road is not only related to the rise and fall of Fengjun, but also has another meaning for Lao Zhang. His two sons, Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Xueming, are both on the front line. Those who are fighting in the front, how can a father be behind.

Not only Lao Zhang had this idea, but also Zhang Zuoxiang in Jilin. After receiving Lao Zhang’s notice, Zhang Zuoxiang also took action immediately. Jilin’s business community was also mobilized, and Governor Guo Zongxi also worked extremely hard to make all the farms do well. Prepared to work hard.

Although it is now the time for spring plowing, the organization efficiency of the farm is far from that of a scattered small-scale peasant economy. Jilin quickly organized [-] peasants, mainly concentrated between Changchun and Jilin. Originally, there was also a railway between Changchun and Jilin. Connection, but this railway is a branch line of the Nanman Railway, which is controlled by the Japanese.

Zhang Zuoxiang had to plan for the worst. Fortunately, the distance between the two places was only more than 100 kilometers, and the requisition of these civilian husbands could basically meet the needs.

At the time when the three eastern provinces were fully mobilized, Zhang Tinglan was commanding the army and completed the encirclement of the Russian army. Since the start of the war, the contention between the two sides on the second line of defense has been the most intense, and the Russians have put all their best forces into it. , Pounce on Fengjun.

And Zhang Tinglan also used the most elite forces. The predecessor of the current First Brigade of the Road Guard Army was the first brigade of the Security Division, which was the original independent brigade. It was a unit trained by Zhang Tinglan. He made great achievements in battle, and after the subsequent military operations, he also made frequent contributions.

The Russians' offensive was very fierce. They rushed to the Fengjun's position several times. The two sides fought fiercely. With their tenacious will and strong firepower, the Fengjun finally suppressed the Russians.

Seeing the failure of the attack, the Russian army also fell into a passive state. Their supplies were not abundant. Facing the huge consumption, their ammunition could no longer keep up, especially the shells were almost empty.

This is a good opportunity for Feng Jun to show his skills. Everyone endured the Russians for so long because of this opportunity. Qin Wei led the reserve team to bypass the main position and penetrate behind the Russian army.Due to Constantine's blindly attacking, the entire Russian army has been embedded in Fengjun's position, forming a protrusion with a depth of seven or eight kilometers and a width of five or six kilometers. Fengjun is targeting this protrusion.

Qin Wei commanded the troops and launched a fierce attack on the Russians. Forty or so artillery pieces desperately bombarded the flanks of the Russian army. Gradually, the Russians were cut into two parts.

325 chapter Yang my country prestige

In the past winter, Fengjun's artillery unit has been greatly improved. Not only has the original gap been filled, but also 150mm heavy artillery has been added, which has doubled its strength.Zhang Tinglan's road guard army is the most powerful of the Feng army's artillery, and now is the time to show off its power.

All the artillerymen went crazy. Some of them simply took off their shirts to reveal their strong physique. They kept carrying the shells, while others aimed at the direction of the Russian army and sent the shells to the Russians one after another. On the head, there is also an invitation from the god of death.

Under the fierce attack of the Feng army, the Russians suffered heavy losses. Every time a shell fell, a life was taken away. Relying on the powerful firepower to open the way, Qin Wei commanded the Feng army to launch an attack on the Russian army. Compressing the living space of the Russian army.

Constantine also felt bad at this time. He seriously misestimated the strength of the Feng army. He never imagined how China, which has always been lagging behind and ignorant, suddenly turned into such a powerful army. Of course, he still didn't know that these weapons were all It was smuggled from Russia, if he knew the truth, he would probably go crazy on the spot.

The news from the front line is becoming more and more urgent. The Feng army closed the encirclement circle from two directions. Now the Russian army has become a dumbbell shape, with two big ends and a narrow middle. The narrowest place is only 2000 meters away. As long as this point of contact If it is cut off, the Russian army will be completely cut open, and what awaits Constantine can only be the fate of failure, but a disastrous defeat to the Chinese, which is unacceptable anyway.

"Tell those idiots that you must hold on, hold on tight, and don't let the Chinese break through our defense line. If anyone has a problem, I will smash his head!"

Constantine roared and gave orders to the soldiers. At this time, the artillery fire in front suddenly became more violent. The roar of heavy artillery shook the world, and the Russian army's headquarters was like a small boat on the sea.Swaying left and right, there was a danger of overturning at any time, and with this swaying, Constantine's heart was also shaking, and he finally felt afraid.

At this time, the Feng army indeed launched the most ferocious offensive. The dense artillery bombarded the narrow Russian army junction, and the shells plowed the land over and over again.No life can escape the fate of being destroyed, and the gray animals, known for their obedience, also felt fear, and they ran away in all directions, trying to escape.

Seeing the Russians getting into a mess, Qin Wei showed a hint of complacency, as long as the army's morale is slackened.It is much easier to defeat the Russian army.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he gave the order to charge.

On the field, countless Fengjun soldiers bowed their bodies, holding rifles in their hands, and moved quickly, which was different from the Russians who liked to shout loudly.Feng Jun's charge did not make a loud cry, but the momentum did not weaken in any way, on the contrary, it added a sense of chilling.

Countless silent soldiers marched quickly across the field, and any opponents who dared to block them were wiped out. Gradually, Feng Jun, who came from both sides, could see each other. Among them, only some remnants remained. Russian Army.Still trying to resist, these people were all smashed to pieces by the fierce artillery fire of the Feng army.

As the two Fengjun armies merged together, the Russian army's last way of life was also cut off. Nearly [-] Russian soldiers were completely besieged, and there were Fengjun soldiers inside and out. The meat of the mouth depends on how Feng Jun eats it again.

And outside the encirclement.Constantine only has 4000 people left, and most of these troops are logistics and transportation personnel. The combat effectiveness is not as good as those elite forces, but Constantine does not want to give up.
