This letter was too timely for Zhang Zongchang at this time.

Because of the conflict between him and the Zheng family father and son in Jeseong, his army fell into a state of stagnation.

Officials throughout the provincial government and local warlords were playing Tai Chi with him.

Zhang Zongchang, who was about to see the bottom of the salary, regarded this cooperation of the Japanese as the last straw.

Is there a disturbance in Qingcheng? Need the army to suppress it?

He could completely bypass the entanglement of the Zheng family's father and son, go all the way to the east, and take advantage of Wang Hanzhang's unpreparedness to swallow more than 20,000 people under his command directly.

According to the report of the spies sent by Zhang Zongchang before he came to Shandong, the real elite of the troops under Wang Hanzhang was only 10,000, and the rest were all idlers recruited for the purpose of eating the empty salary of the northern government.

In return for his cronies who had become a big squad leader in three months, Wang Hanzhang's elite troops were stationed in the western suburbs of Qingcheng.

If his army traveled overnight and went to the east, the front line was Wang Hanzhang's elite.

When you knock out this difficult bone, then the entire Jiaodong will become unguarded fat.

However, before sending troops, he Zhang Zongchang still had to bargain again.

It's better that this battle becomes paid by the Japanese for him to fight.

As long as there are weapons and food...... Naturally, people can have as many as they want!

As for where do people come from?

When he defeated Wang Hanzhang's main force, wouldn't the remaining troops who were like grass on the wall surround themselves very consciously?

Zhang Zongchang, who is full of confidence, is directly reckless.

When Wang Hanzhang received the news, he was shocked.

Who has ever seen an Overseer dare do that?

Nominally speaking, he Wang Hanzhang can also be regarded as Zhang Zongchang's subordinate.

Don't look at Zhang Zongchang's faint intention to secede from the northern government.

But as long as he has the title of Shandong Overseer, he can still be regarded as a direct official of the northern government.

What is he trying to do? Even if he wants to make trouble, he must follow the process, right?

Now, he said that he would fight, and he really didn't lose the nickname Zhang Bandit given to him!

Just when Wang Hanzhang was furious about this, He Jifeng, who got the news, made an urgent meeting with Shao Nianshi.

After all, the main reason why he can talk about this matter is because of the subsidy promised by Shao Nian.

Who would have thought that in their opinion, it was just a trivial matter, but it would provoke Zhang Zongchang's reaction.

He Jifeng, as the direct instigator of this time, naturally wanted to find Shao Nianshi, who was standing behind him, to discuss.

Now sitting in the Bohai Hotel, Shao Nianshi, who is poaching with the group of marching workers, is happy.

Because of the strike of nearly 10,000 workers in Japanese yarn factories, Shao Nianshi was given the opportunity to contact the other party's foreman.

And because Dahua, where he is located, has recently become famous and his sales are touching, so these workers in the textile factory in Japan have also heard of Dahua's fame.

After Shao Nian gave a basic salary of 22 yuan a month, as well as a relatively reasonable working hour and daily benefits.

There are quite a few workers who are willing to terminate their contracts for working in Japan and transfer them to their Dahua and former Deyao textile factories.

Of course, all this is premised on the fact that they have to pay back the deposit for their work in a Japanese textile factory.

According to Shao's inference, in just a few days, these workers would be able to distinguish the victory from the Japanese factory.

As if it were the result of the previous strikes, compromise and improve.

In any case, an organized strike would have a much better outcome than a single workers' riot.

It was also when Shao Nian was full of confidence that He Jifeng found him overnight.

gave Zhang Zongchang's news, which surprised Shao Nianshi.

For the first time, Shao Nian, who consciously counted people's hearts, found that he couldn't care about logic with a madman.

"Is Zhang Dengguan crazy? If he does this in Shandong, isn't he afraid of a group attack?"

If an overseer with an extremely low audience really fights Wang Hanzhang, within two days, warlords from all walks of life in the province will gather together and attack him.

Unless......

Shao Nianshi, who suddenly seemed to think of something, leaned over: "Staff Officer He, tell me the truth, is there anything else going on here? Are the Japanese involved?"

There is still a Wang Hanzhang between the Japanese and Zhang Zongchang, if there is a connection between the two of them, they will definitely not be able to escape Wang Hanzhang's eyes.

Who would have thought that He Jifeng's face showed a wry smile: "When we received the news over there, Commander Wang's expression was not much better than that of his younger brother!"

"This Zhang Zongchang must not have made contact with the Japanese only after entering Shandong, and after today's incident, we feel that Zhang Zongchang had preliminary contact with the Japanese army at sea when he confronted Shanghai with the revolutionary army of the southern government. ”

Even when he was by Zhang Dashuai's side, he had contact with the Japanese army on the Manchurian side. ”

"He had planned it from the beginning, and he was very determined to join the Japanese. ”

"No wonder!"

It is no wonder that Zhang Zongchang knew that no one in Shandong welcomed him, but he dared to take his tens of thousands of elite troops to break through directly.

If you have a Japanese person in the background, then all this is easy to say.

"Not good!!"

Thinking of this, Shao Nianshi suddenly stood up from his seat: "Staff Officer He, you should immediately go and remind Commander Wang now, and ask him to be careful that the Japanese in the rear and Zhang Zongchang's troops form a flanking attack, and I will call Jicheng now to pass on the news over there." ”

"If possible, I will use all my connections to unite the warlord forces in Shandong, block Zhang Zongchang's eastward advance, and give the garrison of Qingcheng a little respite. ”

The rest of the words don't need to be said by Shao Nianshi, He Jifeng will do it properly.

For example, asking for aid and political support from the northern government and Zhang Dashuai of the three eastern provinces, I am afraid that Wang Hanzhang, who is a frontal enemy, has already started to do it, right?

And what he was able to remind Shao when he was young was: "Staff Officer He, you and Shao Jun are alumni of the same school." ”

Shao Jun talked about Staff Officer He many times in his letters. ”

"If Staff Officer He sees that the war is unfavorable, you can go directly to Guangzhou. Keep a useful body for future wars. ”

"Whether it's revenge or getting back on the field, you have to save your life and then calculate. ”

After all, Shao Nian and He Jifeng were already friends because of Shao Jun's beginnings.

This young officer, regardless of anything else, is much more military literate than the warlords of the wild road today.

Shao Nianshi always felt that it was a waste for such a talent to die in internal friction, and it was better to remind the other party more and find a bright path for it than to see it fall.

Grateful for Shao Nian's reminder, the restrained He Jifeng just shook his hands lightly with the other party, and then turned his head and returned to his troops.

In any case, he is a soldier, and he always has to fight a battle before talking about anything else.

After this He staff officer left, Shao Nianshi took a phone call to the first family's mansion in Jicheng.

Now that Jicheng is located, because of Zhang Zongchang's sudden eastward advance, it is also a bloody storm, and all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods have emerged.

Since Zhang Zongchang suddenly entered the east, the Zheng family, which had a faint confrontation with him, was about to be flattened by visitors.

This seemingly mindless military act did not give the Zheng family father and son a very good mood.

Because among their intelligence, there is no news related to Zhang Zongchang's operation.

It was like a general's impromptu idea, and he pulled his team out that night.

From grain and grass to transportation, everything exudes a willful atmosphere.

While disturbing the hearts of the Qingcheng garrison in the east, it also left a mysterious situation for the Zheng family and his son.

When Zheng Jinsheng blocked the visitors under the pretext of being unwell, he discussed the matter with his cronies.

According to the big guy's idea, this is the best time to snipe Zhang Zongchang from behind.

It's just that Zheng Jinsheng, who is cautious by nature, has never put the hope of seizing power on the frontal battlefield where the army is lost.

According to his original plan, relying on the northern government and Zhang Dashuai's natural dislike for Zhang Zongchang, a second or fifth boy, he began to crush his living space in Shandong from the top.

When the northern government freed up its hands and sent the formal crusade order to his Zheng Jinsheng, he launched an attack on Zhang Zongchang's troops in the name of righteousness.

At that time, the northern government will definitely pat the team that is jealous of the reinforcements, and the other party will also supplement his Zheng family's army with money, grain, grass and even weapons.

And when he took down Zhang Zongchang's department, he could still rely on this military merit to become the new Shandong overseer.

In the same way, after this battle, their Zheng family's descendant troops will not suffer heavy losses like the direct hard steel now, and maybe there is the possibility of expanding the scale again.

But just when he kept consuming Zhang Zongchang's strength with the trick of using water drops, and everything was developing as he had planned, this Zhang Zongchang suddenly went east......

Zheng Jinsheng himself didn't know how to respond.

No one knew that when those people from all walks of life were stopped at the door of Zheng Jinsheng's house, his cronies in the army entered Zheng Jinsheng's mansion through the back road.

The generals had a heated discussion on the follow-up war of Zhang Zongchang's department, and the wait-and-see faction and the pursuit faction were directly divided into five or five.

And just when there was a lot of quarrel in the meeting, Shao Nianshi's phone call with Jicheng Chu's family was also picked up by Master Chu.

The first thing Shao Nianshi said to the leader of the Chu family who had received news from two sides on the other side was: "If the affairs over there are already busy, hurry back to Jicheng." ”

"Back in Jecheng, you are in my mansion, Zhang Zongchang will never dare to touch you, even if he takes refuge in foreigners, it is useless. ”

Shao Nianshi, who heard this, was heartbroken, but his mouth was full of care: "Uncle, it's not that serious, right?"

"Wang Hanzhang's department has not been in a war for many years, and he has been a veteran warlord for many years. ”

What's more, there is also Wen Shude, the direct commander of the Bohai Fleet that rebelled from the south. ”

"The two of them are one sea and one land, echoing each other, when Wang Hanzhang allowed Wen Shude to enter our Bohai Bay, wasn't what he did to attract a large piece of naval power for the northern government?"

"This Zhang Zongchang doesn't have a navy in his hands, and it's really uncertain whether he is dead or alive this time when he goes east. ”

The master of the first family sighed: "The Japanese have long been dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin, and the time to do it is just around the corner." ”

"Zhang Zongchang's sudden eastward advance must be connected with the actions of the Japanese army. ”

"I'm afraid that this time there is Zhang Zongchang on land and a company of Japanese ships on the sea. ”

"As for Wen Shude's straw bale, who is afraid of death, his courage has long been broken by foreign ships in the Beiyang period. ”

The Japanese didn't even need to fire a single shot, he only needed to drive the ship into the waters of the Bohai Fleet, and Wen Shude's Bohai Fleet didn't dare to move. ”

With this action, Wang Hanzhang is afraid that he will be more auspicious. ”

"In order to avoid Zhang Zongchang's homeopathic moves, it is better for you to return to Jecheng as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, uncle, I won't be back soon. ”

Shao Nianshi is not a person who can't listen to persuasion, and his admiration and respect for Chu Kaipeng are all in his heart.

No one knew that the young businessman even had a lot of loyalty to his future father-in-law.

After Shao Nianshi hung up the phone, he quickly returned to the factory and thoroughly explained the follow-up work with Chen Jiefu.

"The sales channel of the yarn mill has been opened, and I have been contacted by the workers of the Japanese textile mill and I have transferred it to you. ”

"When I finish explaining to Su Shuwei and Deng Mingen, you will be the representative of our yarn factory to connect with each other. ”

"The textile workers in those unions are all skilled, and their wages are adjusted according to the basic wages of workers in Qingcheng City. ”

"I really can't stay in Qingcheng anymore, I'm different from you, if Zhang Zongchang really gains power, my life will be lost. ”

Regarding Shao Nianshi's worries, Chen Jiefu has a good understanding of it, and the factory itself has stabilized, so he naturally takes on the rest of the trivialities.

That night, under the leadership of Shao Nianshi, he made effective contact with the organizers of the patriotic trade union in Qingcheng and the leaders of the Japanese yarn factory workers.

Seeing that things were generally fine here, Shao Nianshi, who had packed his package early, didn't even meet Miss Yu from Zhongshan Road again, and stepped on the train back to Jecheng with his luggage without looking back.

When Shao Nian got out of the car, he was directly dragged to the mansion by the servants of the Chu family, and when it was just repaired the next day, the news came that Zhang Zongchang's department and Wang Hanzhang's department exchanged fire in the suburbs of Qingcheng.

At this time, who cares about the six Japanese factories that can't work, everyone's attention is on the war between the Shandong Overseers and the Qingcheng garrison.
