Zhang Hanqing, who knew the face of the Japanese, would not let the story repeat itself so easily, and he said eloquently: "Interfering in the Far East is not a war against China, and the Northeast Autonomous Government will never agree to the so-called military management of the Middle East Road!" The Feng army has already set up provincial security commands, and the Black Province has also set up a special 'Middle East Road Protection Command', and the transportation of all kinds of military supplies is not a problem at all. Moreover, the limited intervention force will be weakened by carrying out routine protection tasks on the Middle East Road. ”

"With regard to the transport of military materiel by the Middle East Road, it is governed by the Civilian Transport Regulations. Of course, in order to support the coalition army's use of troops in Siberia, the northeastern government halved the cost. The coalition forces were allowed to send a small number of soldiers to escort the vehicle, but they were not allowed to carry weapons, and the Chinese military and police would also accompany the vehicle to guard the vehicle in case of misuse. "When it comes to sovereignty, it's better not to be too casual.

When you used your railway to suppress bandits, you pushed three obstacles and four to "escort" the guard brigade, but now I have the same example and also help you "escort" military supplies, which can be regarded as a report and a report, and this is by no means ambiguous.

People have already sworn that there is no problem, what do you want? Hoshino has the heart but the power, so he can't just say that I just want to occupy the Eastern Railway, right? In this way, it is inevitable that our young marshal will be hated by the Japanese.

Regardless of it, there will be gains and losses, and there will be gains and losses. No, it offended the Japanese, but it invisibly helped Soviet Russia.

After the October Revolution, in order to give the nascent Soviet power a respite, Russia signed the Peace of Brest with Germany, and successfully withdrew from World War I on the humiliating terms of ceding millions of square kilometers of land and paying 6 billion marks in compensation. As a member of the Entente, Soviet Russia's independent peace caused serious dissatisfaction with Britain and France, and because of their hostility to the Soviets and their historical responsibility to weaken Russia, the United States, Britain, Czech Republic, Japan, and other countries wanted to form an intervention army and arm the White Russian army to attack the Soviet Russian workers' and peasants' Red Guards.

At the same time, the Far East Intervention Army, composed of the United States, Japan, Canada, and other countries, also began to be formed, and the Soviet Russian regime had the task of fighting on two fronts, east and west. In particular, there is information that the main task of the Far East Intervention Force is to land in Vladivostok, Temple Street, and Boli, to open up railway communication between the Czech Army and the Russian White Army in Siberia and the Urals, to open up access to the sea, and to obtain direct material support from the Entente.

Originally, the military policy set by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and Russia was to give priority to the European part, and only to send guerrillas to resist sporadically in Asia. However, if the intervening forces take possession of the Eastern Railway, they can easily transfer their troops to the heart of Siberia, and by using the Trans-Siberian Railway, they can easily threaten any local power in Soviet Russia along the route.

Having dealt with the Japanese for a long time, the Russians knew too well that the Japanese coveted the Far East. Who wouldn't know that the "going north" plan has become one of Japan's undecided national policies? The Japanese, who occupied the southern part of Sakhalin during the Russo-Japanese War, are now sharpening their knives and staring at such a fat land in the Far East. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) already had a premonition that the future war against Japan would be a very difficult one, because if this wolf was not beaten, it would not easily change its mind of going north.

At this time, the Chinese, who have always been weak, were rarely tough and stubbornly blocked the intervention army's attempt to use the Middle East Road to quickly approach the heart of Soviet Russia in Asia. If you just land in Vladivostok, Boli and other cities, and then fight step by step to the European part of Soviet Russia, you will not have good results in a year. Because of their offensive, they needed to resort to the long Trans-Siberian Railway. As long as a few guerrilla units harass on both flanks, the intervention forces (mainly Japanese troops) without logistical security will not dare to rashly attack on a large scale, and can only encroach on them.

For such a long time, the ruling party of Soviet Russia is confident that it can ease its strength.

As a result, their favorability of Zhang Hanqing increased greatly, and the Feng faction also entered the field of vision of the Soviet Russians as an important political group, although the central government where it was located was currently hostile to Soviet Russia.

At this time, Duan Qirui's government, as the central government, rarely had the opportunity to send troops abroad to show his face, so he sent a guard of honor to go abroad, and the military appearance was strange.

661 officers and men of the advance unit of the Ninth Division of the Army, led by regiment commander Song Huanzhang, set off from Beijing on July 18; On the 24th, battalion commander Su Bingwen led 667 officers and men to Vladivostok on a naval warship. By 26 October, six groups of more than 2,000 officers and men had taken a train to Vladivostok via Harbin to take part in the intervention against Soviet Russia. The navy, led by Commodore Lin Jianzhang, led the cruiser Hairong and its auxiliary units, also sailed to Vladivostok. Commodore Lin Jianzhang (quite a brigadier general), moderating the overall situation.

This has given rise to an interesting phenomenon: The Duan Qirui regime in Beijing, as the main body of the state, has an attitude of non-recognition and opposition to Russia, while the Feng system, as a local government unit, has a sympathetic attitude. The reason why the army that went out was the Ninth Division of the Beiyang Army instead of the nearby Fengjun troops, and it was inseparable from Zhang Zuolin's resistance.

In fact, with Zhang Zuolin's thoughts, he also wanted to take the fire and kill the Soviet Russians, but he was blocked by Zhang Hanqing.

Because it was this eldest son who had foreseen the great changes in the Russian government earlier, that he had opportunistically borrowed money from the Daosheng Bank. Two large sums of arms and equipment worth 7 million rubles entered Zhang Zuolin's command in this way. Strange to say, the development of events was exactly what Zhang Hanqing "predicted". After the outbreak of the February Revolution, because of the uneasiness about the political situation, Daosheng Bank did not urge Zhang Hanqing to repay the money in advance, and even proposed a plan to reduce interest rates, but he politely rejected it on the grounds that "the time has not come".

In this way, when it was time to repay the principal and interest, I found that even if the value depreciated to one-thirtieth of the due principal, I did not know who to repay. Daosheng Bank has already messed up on its own, where can it take care of this loan? In this way, Zhang Zuolin, who was not good at foreign relations, had to praise his vision. Even Zhang Zuoxiang, Sun Liechen and others are also very impressed by this.

Therefore, when Zhang Hanqing tried his best to disagree with the public and demanded that the Soviet Russian regime lay a good foundation and not do anything that would fall into the ground, at least for the time being, everyone reluctantly agreed. Because he also told everyone in a conclusive way: Soviet Russia will win in the end.

Zhang Hanqing knew what the reason was, he didn't want to be called a "god stick" at a young age, and his external excuse was to get the news from Gu Weijun, the minister to the United States, in advance. As we all know, he and Gu Weijun are brothers.

This explanation is much more credible, but Zhang Zuolin is a little unconvinced. This era is not like later generations, where a single email can be easily communicated. With the current means of communication, in order to get in touch with Washington from Mukden, the telegram must first be photographed in Shanghai, and then transferred from Shanghai to New York, and then to Washington. It's hard to imagine that the two can talk about everything so "intimately". It is true that the old Zhang family has money, but it has not yet reached the ----point of "making telegraph porridge".

However, the nature of the green forest made Lao Zhang choose to believe Xiao Zhang's words again. It didn't come to any good if it followed the fight against Soviet Russia, there were Japanese and other foreign soldiers, and there would be no Chinese soldiers at all. On the contrary, there is no loss from burning the "cold stove" wrong. Of course, if the bet is right, as is now being done by both parties, the benefits are greatly significant.

Because Zhang Zuolin's regime, which at least maintained a "neutral" posture, actually delayed the penetration of the intervention forces into the Far East, Zhang Hanqing did not arouse the resentment of the other side when he communicated with Soviet Russia to negotiate the territory of Mokowei.

Although he did have the idea of "taking advantage of your illness and killing you".

As we all know, the late Qing government and Russia mainly signed three major unequal treaties, the "Treaty of Xuanhui", the "Sino-Russian Treaty of Beijing", and the "Sino-Russian Treaty on the Survey and Demarcation of the Northwest Boundary", which successively seized more than 1.4 million square kilometers of land, which is equivalent to the total area of two France and one Poland today. This treaty greatly undermined China's territorial integrity and basically cut off the northeast's access to the sea.

It is said to be "basic" because the Sino-Russian "Beijing Treaty" contains the words "Whatever is said above is an open land, and Russia is not allowed to occupy it", and the above refers to the 400,000 square kilometers of land from the mouth of the Ussuri River to the mouth of the Tumen River. In 1861, the appendix to the Sino-Russian Treaty on the Survey and Demarcation of the Eastern Boundary clearly pointed out: "From the east of the Tumen River estuary to the mouth of the Suifen River, there are Katai addresses along the coast, and they are all the places where the flag people fish and hunt and the 14 islands in the middle of the sea to the flag people. ”

This "open land" is the area from Mokowei to the mouth of the Tumen River, which is also known as the Hanqi Coast. As the residence of the Manchu tribe in China and the place of fishing and hunting, Mokowei retained the rights of the Chinese in the treaty. Therefore, the later Minister of Boundary Survey, Wu Dawei, proposed to take it back and negotiated for a long time, but to no avail, which is certain.

Now that Zhang Hanqing has picked up the old case, he wants to take the opportunity to turn over the case and implement it. Because he knows that in later generations, when Russia and Maoism become stronger, it will no longer want to engage in territorial negotiations with China, even in a purely "friendship" nature. In December 1972 and July 1973, the Supreme Presidium of the Soviet Union even issued an executive order to systematically replace almost all of China's old place names north of the Heilongjiang River and east of the Ussuri River, in a vain attempt to erase the historical traces of the Chinese's development and operation of the Far East.

On the map of China or the map of the world that we see today, the geographical names marked on the territory of China have become lengthy and difficult to remember, except for the Chinese place names in parentheses such as Vladivostok, Boli, and Hailanpao. Since then, the Chinese government has lost this opportunity forever, except at the risk of starting a nuclear war---- which is almost impossible in the modern international community.

So, Zhang Hanqing decided to make a small comeback here anyway, and of course, he had a good reason. A month ago, Zhang Hanqing was appointed as a special envoy to the three eastern provinces, responsible for all foreign affairs liaison and discussions with the Russian side.
