Chapter 751: Reason
Guo Xing'a was ready to fly back to Changchun overnight, but before leaving, he still had to see two people - Jiang Baishu and Shi Dianchen. One is his feudal official, the other is the senior staff member who used to give advice to him, and both of them are now his prisoners. Guo Xing'a didn't understand very much, why did these two people rebel, and what kind of benefits did the imperial court promise to them, so that these two high-ranking officials and Houlu people could take risks?
Confinement cells were set up in the various headquarters of Northern Manchuria, which were generally used to punish lazy sentinels. The room is less than four square meters, with only doors and no windows, and there are no furnishings except for a bed. The confinement room of the Shi Dianchen now has a nice nickname - the governor's room. Because before Shi Dianchen, the governor of Fengtian, was imprisoned, Liu Sushi, the governor of Mengdong, had just lived in this single room for a few days.
Guo Xing'a sat outside the iron gate, and Shi Dianchen knelt beside the wooden bed, Shi Dianchen's head was very low, and his mood was very restless, he seemed to have a strong desire to survive. Guo Xing'a is still bland, Shi Dianchen is not familiar with him at all, and Guo Xing'a has never been too impressed by this old man who cheated in the exam. Shi Dianchen was able to become the governor of Fengtian, and he completely relied on his qualifications. During the Guoxing Achengde period, the civil ministers in the curtain basically went to the position of cabinet ministers or governors of many provinces, and Shi Dianchen has been mixed for so many years, from Fengtian, who is the worst in the governor, it can be seen how miserable he is.
"Mr. Shi, tell me about it! What the hell is going on? I've always wondered, what can you get if you turn against me and return to the court? The court will give you a governor at the biggest, even if the governor Liangjiang may not be happier than our governor! Can the court still let you replace me? Guo Xing'a looked at Shi Dianchen, who was a little trembling, and his heart was extremely tired, although this guy is the mastermind in his behavior, but this color doesn't look like the mastermind.
"General, the minister was forced! There's no way to do it! The general spares his life! Shi Dianchen already knew about Bi Yuntao's death, and he was very scared now. The relationship between Bi Yuntao and Guo Xing'a, which is already in the status of North Manchuria, is absolutely beyond his reach, Guo Xing'a can even kill Bi Yuntao, and he will not hesitate to kill him.
"Let's talk about it! Who forced you, and how were you forced? Give me a reason not to kill you! Guo Xing'a looked at the weeping Shi Dianchen, very tired, but there was still a trace of happiness flowing through the bottom of his heart.
"Chengshan, it's all Chengshan, it's him who persecuted his ministers, it's him, everything is him!" Shi Dianchen was also sincere, and what he said was extremely simple.
"Seungseon? Isn't he your secretary? Guoxing'a was taken aback, Chengshan was the son of Su Shun, and he came to join him.
"General, Chengshan is not my secretary, he is my ancestor! This kid is a spy of the imperial court, and the ministers and subordinates everywhere in Fengtian were all coerced by him! "Shi Dianchen kowtows like pounding garlic.
"He is alone, how can he coerce you, how can he coerce the officials from all over the world!" The more Guo Xing'a thought about it, the more wrong it became, Chengshan had only been in Fengtian for a few years, and there was no one around him to help him, what did he use to coerce Fengtian's subordinates!
"General, you don't know! ......" Shi Dianchen told a very tortuous story.
Chengshan, the orphan of the Zhao family in the eyes of Guo Xing'a, is actually a character like Zero-Seven, who is both civil and military, shrewd and capable, bold and careful, and has countless advantages. If he can work hard, he will definitely become a character like his father, and he will be as good as he is. However, Chengshan has an extremely confidential mission, and it is impossible for him to do his best for Northern Manchuria, and he can die for the imperial court. In the past few years in Fengtian, Chengshan has done a good job of stealing secrets and digging up people's privacy, and he has pulled many officials to his side with coercion and temptation. However, at that time, he still talked about his special relationship with Guoxing'a, and he was just forming a party for personal gain, but then he dug countless pits and drove these officials to jump in. By the time Chengshan explained his true intentions, these officials had no choice but to follow him all the way to the dark.
"Jiang Baishu was also coerced by him?" Listening to Shi Dianchen's brief words, Guo Xing'a felt like falling into an ice cellar, Chengshan came to North Manchukuo when he entered Beijing to report on his work, it seems that the imperial court was premeditated, and Chengshan is also ill-intentioned, this game of chess has been calculated for a long time.
"Jiang Shizuo was not coerced, he didn't know how he found Chengshan's horse's feet, but later, I don't know how the two colluded, and they were so together!" Shi Dianchen answered Guo Xing'a honestly, and at the same time, he was also hinting that Jiang Baishu was not simple.
"Hmmm! …… What are your plans, and what promises did the court give you? "Guo Xing's heart is in turmoil, and the rebellion of feelings is also a few mountains, Jiang Baishu and Shi Dianchen are actually not together.
"The imperial court plans to take advantage of this meeting to take advantage of the opportunity of the cabinet ministers and important ministers from all over the country to gather in Fengtian to take down all the high-level civil officials in Northern Manchukuo in one fell swoop. Then use Concubine Li's mother to lure you to Fengtian and kill two birds with one stone. When you and a group of high-ranking civil officials fall into the hands of the imperial court, half of the foundation of Northern Manchukuo will be in the hands of the imperial court. Shi Dianchen seemed to have some concerns, and his words were very vague.
"Speak clearly!" Guo Xing'a asked for dry materials, and Shi Dianchen's unclear words, he was not interested.
"General, the minister really knows a lot! Chengshan said that as long as you and a group of ministers are kidnapped, the remaining people in Northern Manchukuo will inevitably fall into division. Several bigwigs are doing their own thing, attacking each other, and they will not have the heart to embarrass us at all, nor will they attack the imperial court. "Shi Dianchen didn't want to cover up for anyone, but there were many places, and he couldn't say it clearly.
Guo Xing'a understood in his heart that Cheng Shan had obviously had an in-depth understanding of the situation at the top of North Manchuria, and his judgment was also very correct. Guo Xing'a is the pillar of the high-level in North Manchuria, and the only glue in the high-level of North Manchuria, he is in everything, if something happens to him, the complex high-level in North Manchuria, will inevitably turn the sky. If both Wenchen and Guoxinga are controlled by the imperial court, the forces of all parties will inevitably get out of control, and without the Wenchen who can hold their weight, the battle will definitely become the first choice of the forces of all parties. Cheng Shan's prediction was right, once Guo Xing'a and the Wenchen were captured, and the imperial court instigated it from the secret, the forces of all parties in Northern Manchukuo would definitely fight together on their own, and before a new boss was played, the imperial court and Fengtian's gang would not become the first choice for attacking
"How are you going to cause civil strife...... Guo Xing'a only asked half a sentence, and then he stopped asking, which is a very ridiculous question, because the answer is in front of everyone's eyes. A Bi Yuntao who has submitted to the imperial court, there is nothing that cannot be done, and with Bi Yuntao's cooperation, it is very easy for the imperial court to provoke civil strife in North Manchuria.
"How exactly are you going to deal with the aftermath!" Guo Xinga turned his head and asked, there must be an answer.
"Yu Shuai will take over the defense of the northern part of Fengtian, guard the northern gate of Fengtian for us, and then use his prestige to subdue the scattered forces near Fengtian. Jiang Shizuo's 19th Division will take it with all its might, and it will not be able to swallow the navy, and it will also drive them all into the sea, and all the land of Mukden must be controlled by us. "This part of the plan, Cheng Shan has already drawn up, and Shi Dianchen knows it.
"And then? In this way, you occupy Mukden and Mengdong and claim to be kings? Shouldn't the imperial court and Chengshan think that the civil strife of all parties will continue for a long time? In as little as half a year, as long as two years, Changchun will definitely give birth to a new master, and the first thing he will do when the time comes, is to wave the army south. The imperial court wouldn't be so naïve that it didn't even know about this, would it? Guo Xing'a felt that this plan was simply incredible, and it was simply a plan to find death.
"What is the industrial and economic strength of Fengtian and Mengdong, others don't know, you Shi Dianchen should know best? These two provinces have a great influence on the imperial court, but they are not the foundation of my Northern Manchuria, and they do not have the strength to fight those big provinces! Even if the civil strife on all sides cannot be stopped for a while, they can go south at any time, and it is also a good excuse to avenge me, to win the hearts of the people and call on subordinates to use it. Haven't you thought about this at all? The more Guo Xing'a thought about it, the more unreasonable he felt, there were too many omissions in the imperial court's plan after seizing Mukden.
"As long as the imperial court can protect the land of the ancestors, other imperial courts have no intention of interfering!" When Shi Dianchen replied this time, he bowed his head deeply.
"The Land of the Ancestors? They just want to worship heaven, and then they don't care? Joke...... Wait, what do you mean! At first, Guo Xing'a thought that the imperial court was going to recapture Fuling and Zhaoling, but he immediately reacted that something was wrong.
"The foundation created by the great general is too big, and the family foundation is too thick. The imperial court knew that no matter how much they instigated and what kind of civil strife occurred in Northern Manchuria, it was impossible for them to completely swallow Northern Manchuria, so they did not dare to fight against Northern Manchurian alone, nor did they dare to ask for perfection. Shi Dianchen's head was already on the ground, and he knew that this was something that touched the bottom line of Guoxing'a.
"The imperial court also found a helper, what benefits did you promise?" Things are much more complicated than Goxinga imagined.
"Singapore, New Guinea and other South Sea territories belonged to Great Britain, the Republic of Lanfang belonged to France, the north of Transmanchuria and Transbaikal were all to Russia, Alaska belonged to the United States, Sakhalin Island belonged to Japan, Busan belonged to Germany, and Yingkou and Dalian were leased to Austria-Hungary. In addition, all the industrial facilities in North Manchu are owned by the above countries, and they are allowed to be dismantled and taken away, and the Qing Dynasty only needs the three provinces of Uriya, Sutai, Mengdong, Heijifeng, as well as the land of the Outer Northeast and Dongjiang. Shi Dianchen trembled and said all the conditions he knew.
"What will these countries do for the imperial court?" Guo Xinga felt a pair of big hands pinching his heart, and then rubbed it mercilessly, angina!
"Once there is civil strife in Northern Manchuria, all countries will immediately send troops to intervene to assist the imperial court in recovering their homeland!" Shi Dianchen said that he was a little weak-hearted.
"Joke, ridiculous! Britain, France, and Russia, not to mention for the time being! The United States, Japan, Germany, and Austria, either far away in the sky, or the national strength is weak, what use can they have, the imperial court gives them great benefits, and they can't help much, lack of heart? "The court is like a loser like death, and Guoxing Adu is going crazy.
