Bell bell bell.

"Hey, this is the mansion of Zhang Dashuai, the envoy of the Manmeng Sutra, where are you?"

"I'm Duan Qirui, please come over and talk."

"Please wait a minute, I'll go and ask the marshal!" After the adjutant finished speaking, he threw the phone on the table, glanced at the nervous one, and asked for the next arrangement. Zhang Zuolin waved his hand and asked him what he should do, the adjutant quickly disappeared without a trace, Zhang Zuolin picked up the tea on the table and drank it by himself, Duan Qirui's voice came from the other end of the phone, irritable and ready to move, you can imagine that the other party is desperately suppressing his own aggrieved eyes, even if he thinks about it, he will laugh, but Zhang Zuolin still endures, once he can't bear it, he quickly drinks a few sips of water to suppress the shock, don't think he doesn't know, Duan Qirui, these Beiyang cubs, were brought out by Yuan Shikai, and they were all above the top in the past, I don't look down on myself at all, but don't forget that Lao Tzu's Jiangshan City made it himself, you bastards just have a good father.

After drinking a pot of tea, Zhang Zuolin looked up and saw that more than half an hour had passed on the floor clock on the opposite side, before he stood up leisurely, stretched lazily before picking up the phone on the table, and shouted very enthusiastically: "Premier Duan, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, just now the Kwantung Army came to talk to my brother, don't you know how horizontal those Dongying people are, we can't send it away in a few words, we can only grieve Premier Duan." ”

Duan Qirui on the other end of the phone said bluntly: "Lao Zhang, what happened to the Kwantung Army?" If there is anything that needs the support of the central government, as long as someone in my section can do it, I will definitely support it! ”

"It's not a matter of the unsolved case! It's not a day or two for Dongying people to be entangled in this matter, Premier Duan, don't worry, brother has a score here, don't let these little devils take advantage, but how did you remember that Lao Zhang and I came here? Isn't there something wrong, as long as you say a word, my brother can do it for you! Zhang Zuolin said proudly.

Duan Qirui listened to it over there, the root of his teeth hurt, this beard provokes trouble and says cool things, it is really hateful, it can be killed, but now is not the time to care about this, he endured the grievances in his heart, and said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that there was a little skirmish with the Dongying people in Dagukou, Tianjin, and you also know that I, the provisional ruling decree of the Republic of China, can't get out of the Southeast China Sea, can't go to Beijing City, you still have to help me more in this matter." ”

Zhang Zuolin sneered in his heart, wait for your kid's words, it's okay, since you don't go around in circles, then my old Zhang is also refreshing, just say something, I saw a light in his eyes: "I just said this from the Kwantung Army, and now Zhili is fighting, and the Minister Dongying has no guarantee, so send a few people to it, and let those unqualified direct troops go to chaos, you look at this is a mess, I don't know where the North China Garrison Army is, but the Kwantung Army is extremely angry here, this is not to be said, If the brothers don't solve the unsolved case of Manchuria, the Kwantung Army will do the right thing for the sky, what do you think of this matter? ”

Duan Qirui said: "Those Dongying people are escorted by my brother's Feng warship, you intercede with the central government, get a plan, if you can lose some money and come down, then lose some money, now the country can not withstand the toss, if the Dongying people fight, the country is so powerful, even the people who cut the land and seek peace are not there, that is the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species." ”

Zhang Zuolin was silent for a long time before he said: "What Premier Duan said is extremely true, the current country really can't fight with the Dongying people, the country is dead, the people are still three meals a day, you and I have become national sinners, so Lao Zhang thought that he couldn't fight, but you also know that the Dongying people have been planning for a long time, just waiting for you to make a mistake, and then you have to be unforgiving. ”

"Don't manage the losses and ignore the losses, solving the immediate urgency is the most important thing, and you should have hinted at it from the Kwantung Army!" Duan Qirui didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, and asked sharply.

Zhang Zuolin was stunned for a moment, and laughed randomly: "Old Duan, look at your people, where do you want to go, what hints can the Dongying people give me." ”

Duan Qirui said: "No? ”

Zhang Zuolin said: "The Dongying people said that the direct Jiangxi family must stop the war immediately, and someone must be responsible for the case of Cao Zhi's army openly attacking the Dongying soldiers, and Cao Kun, Wu Peifu and other generals must go abroad!" The province of Zhili is entrusted to a person of prestige to take care of it. Only in this way can Dongying's side speak. ”

Duan Qirui frowned and said, "How is this good talk?" You can't just rely on three words to let the central government dismiss the entire direct upper-level generals! ”

Zhang Zuolin said: "In power, my old Zhang is only a Manchurian and Mongolian scripture envoy with a humble position, and his status is not easy to inquire about no matter how much he has." As he spoke, he pulled the phone aside and shouted at the door: "What, Sato Dazuo looked for me and asked him to wait, didn't you see that I was talking to Premier Duan Kan Dashan?" What, there is important business, okay, Lao Tzu will go. After speaking, he didn't care about Duan Qirui on the other side, and hung up directly.

Angry, Duan Qirui's nose crooked again, this bare pole ruling is guilty in addition to being angry, it's really fucking disgusting, the adjutant outside the door walked over lightly and said, "Ruling over, the massage master has come." ”

Duan Qirui glanced at him and said, "How is Hu Weide's side?" There is no news. ”

The adjutant said: "Foreign Minister Hu has just returned, and Hou is in the side hall, waiting for your lord to summon him." ”

Duan Qirui thought for a while and said, "Let Hu Weide go to the bedroom to see me." Time is running out, let's listen to what those Dongying people have to say while massaging. ”

"Yes, in power."

In the bedroom, Duan Qirui changed into casual clothes, sat on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, the masseur behind him was highly skilled, five fingers danced back and forth around Duan Qirui's nose like playing suona, Duan Qirui only felt relaxed, and his originally crooked nose gradually straightened up, this is his old problem, he was so arrogant that he could not bear it, but his nose was a soft bone, and he was crooked when he didn't like it, and he could only rely on the help of the masseur to correct it. However, with his righteousness and arrogance, even a female masseuse will not have scandals, but traditional habits still control his living habits.

Hu Weide walked in slowly, he also knew that Duan Qirui had the habit of correcting his crooked nose by massage, although he was very anxious, but he didn't want to say something annoying in this world, Duan Qirui at this time was just a pitiful person in his eyes, it seemed that he was a high-ranking and powerful puppet, but he was also a puppet of others, let him have this moment of tranquility, anyway, for a while, when he talked about things, I was afraid that he would be sleepless all night.

"Hu Weide, I know you're here! What did those Dongying people say? What conditions were proposed? Duan Qirui asked slowly with his eyes closed, and it could be seen that he was very happy to be massaged.

"This ...... It's better to wait until you're done with the massage! Hu Weide lowered his head and said.

Duan Qirui stretched out his hand to stop the masseuse's massage, slowly opened his eyes, and said, "Adjutant, wait for the old gentleman to go next door to see tea." Then he turned his head and said to the master: "After I finish dealing with state affairs, I will trouble the master." ”

The old masseuse said with a smile: "The ruling is busy, and the old man just waits." As he spoke, he bowed and followed the adjutant to the side to rest.

"Okay, the idlers and others have already left, if you have anything to say, just say it!" Duan Qirui said.

Hu Weide looked embarrassed, lowered his head and came to Duan Qirui's side, cautiously lowered his voice, and said: "Dongying people said that if they want to sit down with them and talk about things, they will ...... for a long time" When he said this, he couldn't help but raise his eyes and glance at Duan Qirui.

Duan Qirui said lightly: "What did he say? Should it be for Lao Tzu to order an immediate truce between the two families of Zhijiang and maintain peace in the Zhili area, which is the primary condition. Secondly, someone must be responsible for the case of Cao Zhi's army openly attacking Dongying soldiers, and Cao Kun, Wu Peifu and other generals must go into the wilderness! Zhili Province is handed over to a person with prestige to take care of, Hu Weide, you said that if the ruling party is not highly respected, it will not be praised to the current position, with your understanding of foreigners, how about the ruling person personally take over Zhili? ”

Hu Weide was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and said: "The ruling is wise, the ministers of all countries plan to do so, only the minister of Dongying thinks that the last time the ministers of various countries handed over the direct subordinate to the ruling lord, but no one was obedient, they felt that the prestige of the ruling was still not enough, and suggested that Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Dashuai should be used to take over the Zhili, and only on this basis can Zhongying negotiate peace." ”

Duan Qirui nodded and said: "This is extremely easy, if you give Zhili to me as an empty ruler, it will be a joke, if you give that Northeast beard, it is logical, after all, Zhifeng Alliance, Wu Peifu, Cao Kun Xiaye, this bit of family background to the old Zhang family is also reasonable." Hehe, I'm afraid that the British and French sides will not agree! ”

"The British minister thinks that Chang Zhenbang is more suitable to take over Zhili, so that China can form a large market environment, which is conducive to friendly trade between the two peoples, and the ministers of the United States and France also think so."

Duan Qirui said: "Very good, go back and tell Dongying over there, the direct generals Wu Peifu and Cao Kun are in the field, and the direct subordinates are taken over by Chang Zhenbang, this is the opinion of the ministers of various countries, and the ruling party is like a stream, and there is not a single soldier, so I can't afford to provoke them so I have to agree." If the people of Dongying can afford to provoke, they can persuade one or two, as long as they can persuade the ministers of Britain, France and other countries to agree, this ruling government has no opinion! ”

Hu Weide said: "If you are in power, the humble post will be brought to Mr. Minister Dongying, but what is the opinion of Dongying's side, the small one doesn't know." ”

Duan Qirui said: "You can imply that the Dongying people are directly subordinate to the interests of all countries, and the ruling party cannot be autonomous, but the ruling party will make concessions on issues that only involve China and Ying." Then they will probably be much easier to talk to. ”
