Chapter 5: The Majima Incident

In May 1907, when the earth was springing, the ice and snow melted, and the rolling Changbai Mountains were in full bloom, groups of Japanese people ran more diligently, and they came to Yanbian in an endless stream, northwest to Ningguta, northeast to Hunchun, and southwest to Changbai Mountain.

After months of reconnaissance. Most of the counties of Yanji, Wangqing, Helong, and Hunchun in Jilin Province have become "Majima" in the Japanese population, and the next step is only to consider how to turn it into a "second Korea." "Majima" was the "lifeline" of the Japanese Empire, and it was all in need of Japan's "protection." A so-called "interma" issue was concocted in this way.

On July 30, 1907, Japan and Russia signed the "Japan-Russia Entente" in Petersburg, the capital of Russia, and on the same day, they also signed the "Japan-Russia Secret Treaty" aimed at carving up the three northeastern provinces of China. Hirobumi Ito believed that the conditions were ripe and led the Japanese military police into Yanbian.

In this way, the dispute between the islands broke out, and at this time, in the Yanbian area, Japan demarcated five districts in the border areas, including Huiningjian Island, Zhongchengjian Island, and Maoshanjian Island, and set up 14 military police detachment posts in important places such as Juzi Street and Toudaogou, covering an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers.

It is a few hundred kilometers away from Yanbian and the Governor's Mansion of the Three Eastern Provinces of Fengtian.

Xu Shichang was furious, he had long forgotten He Tianci beside him, he was faced with such a problem when he first took office, Xu Shichang sighed "hey" and said: The Japanese are rampant, and the Yanbian area has fallen into the hands of the Japanese! ”

No wonder Xu Shichang was so angry, it turned out to be the "Jian Dao" incident, but he knew about it. However, I really didn't expect that the Japanese would fight in the Russo-Japanese War, and the army would be basically lost. And had to recruit a large number of Nanyang sisters in the private sector to reduce the pressure on the domestic economy. Japan is really a country that dares to take risks, and perhaps this time it is to give itself a chance to combat the arrogance of the little devils.

"I don't know what to do with this matter, sir!" He Tianci got up and asked.

"Not an inch of land! Xu Shichang said with a cut of heart: "The third town waiting to come from the Guannai, as well as the new army drawn from the second, fourth, and fifth towns, will definitely not be able to catch up!" ”

Speaking of this, Xu Shichang seemed a little hesitant, and He Tianci could also see that at present, Xu Shichang was limited in the troops he could mobilize when he first arrived in Fengtian, especially the arduous task this time, and he was facing the powerful Japanese army. But this is also an opportunity for himself to make a name for himself, once he maintains the territory of Yanbian, he is a great hero, He Tianci stood up and said to Xu Shichang righteously: "The lower official is willing to ask for his life, lead thousands of elite soldiers to Yanbian, maintain the stability of the frontier, and ask the lord to do it!" ”

Xu Shichang also had no soldiers to send at this time, watching He Tianci take the initiative to share his worries. looked a little excited, and said: "Then bother Huchen to make a hard trip!" ”

"When the country is in trouble, the husband is responsible, not to mention that Huchen is a soldier. It is even more of a responsibility to protect the family and defend the country, and adults don't have to be polite, but there is one more thing for the small ones. I don't know if to talk about it or not! ”

Xu Shichang waved his hand: "But it's okay to say it!" ”

He Tianci's face was full of seriousness, and he said to Xu Shichang with a straight face: "If you only kill Du Lisan, one person." Zhang Tong's method is naturally good, if you focus on the future. Xiaguan thinks that there is something wrong, in the name of Zhao'an, but he killed Du Lisan, which damages the reputation of the imperial court, if he recruits an in the future, I am afraid it will be a little difficult, in the long run, there are many bandits in the three provinces, and the forces are intertwined, Xiaguan thinks that it should be mainly appeased. ”

He Tianci hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Especially for a bandit like Du Lisan, who once kidnapped the daughter of the governor, the adults can really appease him, this has more appeal than anything else, and the lower officials think that most of these bandits are also due to the turmoil in the three provinces, and they are forced to make a living. ”

Xu Shichang was shocked when he heard this, he really didn't expect that He Tianci would have such a city at such a young age, it seems that he is really old and short-sighted, Xu Shichang shouted: "Okay! Huchen has a long-term vision, and the old man also has this intention, and is preparing to write a book to set up a general in the three provinces to suppress bandits, specifically responsible for the work of suppressing bandits, the old man sees that your thousands of elite soldiers are also unique in Fengtian, and they are comparable to the new army of the imperial court! I already want the court to strongly recommend you to be the general of the three eastern provinces. ”

When he became a general, he was a first-class general, and he was specifically responsible for the work of suppressing bandits, and he had the ability to recruit private soldiers, but he was also a first-class officer, Xu Shichang was willing to recommend himself to be a bandit general, so this bandit general must be controlled by the governor of the three provinces, and the power of the entire three provinces was still in his hands, which really deserved to be a crystal fox!

"Thank you, my lord, Huchen is set to be the lord before and after the saddle, solve problems, and do his best to die."

"That's it, there's no need for it, the current Yanbian problem is still waiting for you to solve, Du Lisan's matter, Huchen is right, the governor is thinking about it, the current Yanbian problem is still waiting for you to solve, I am ready to send Wu Luzhen, the military senator, to accompany you, and you can also take care of it!"

Wu Luzhen's small non-commissioned officer Sanjie, when he was called Northern Wu Nan Cai No, however, he was arbitrary, he didn't like to be a person, he spent money like running water, and he spent a lot of money on prostitution as a concubine, and these vices also laid a disaster for being killed in the future, and it was also a good choice to be with him.

"Mao Xuan!"

I saw a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes walking in and shouting, "The lower official is here, please command!" ”

If you don't wear an official uniform, it's really no different from a rural man, even if you wear an official uniform, it looks a little dirty, untidy, and doesn't look like an official at all.

Xu Shichang waved his hand and said loudly: "Call Wu Luzhen, the military counselor, to me!" ”

Looking at this rude officer, He Tianci really couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, so he said to Xu Shichang: "The lower official dares to ask, I don't know who this is just now?" ”

Xu Shichang's face was obviously much better than just now, and he smiled slightly: "Wang Huaiqing, the governor of the three eastern provinces has been in the camp of the army, and he has followed the governor for many years, and he can be regarded as the governor's henchman."

When I heard the name Wang Huaiqing, I was amused in my heart, just now this turned out to be the toilet general with a unique hobby in history. Legend has it that he has a red bronzing toilet with the word "king" written on it, and it is always on the left and right. I don't know if the rumors are true.

"Wu Luzhen, the military senator, met with the governor"

Could this be Wu Luzhen, He Tianci looked up and saw Wu Luzhen wearing a yellow military uniform, shiny riding boots under his feet, standing straight outside the door.

"Shouqing is here, come in!"

After Wu Luzhen walked in, He Tianci carefully looked at the officer known as Northern Wu, who was not tall, a little thin, and looked less like a soldier than a scholar, but stood straight in front of him, but between his eyebrows, he was a little more powerful than a scholar.

Wu Luzhen, a native of Yunmeng County, Hubei Province, was born in the first month of the sixth year of Guangxu (that is, in March 1880). In 1897, he was admitted to the Hubei Military Academy, and was later called the "Three Heroes of Non-commissioned Officers" by the light and promising military talents, together with Zhang Shaozeng and Lan Tianwei, who were students from the same school.

"Appeasement, the purpose of this governor calling you here this time is to let you go to Yanbian with Commander He to deal with the Yanbian conflict." Xu Shichang stretched out his hand and pointed at He Tianci.

"Shou Qing meets He Tong," Wu Luzhen said politely.

"I've heard of Shouqing's name for a long time, and when I saw it today, sure enough, I don't have to be polite, Shouqing still call me Huchen!" He Tianci smiled slightly.

"Okay, the situation in Yanbian is urgent, the Japanese have already controlled the five districts of Huiningjian Island, Zhongchengjian Island, Maoshanjian Island, etc., you should prepare first, and set off immediately tomorrow!"

Xu Shichang became cautious and said to the two: "Be careful, you must bring enough soldiers and horses, the third town of the imperial court is already on the way, you must hold on until the third town arrives." ”

Of course, He Tianci knew that the imperial court at this time was eager to add the Japanese asshole, and where he was willing to send troops, he must be worried about the expansion of the situation, otherwise the third town stationed in the northeast would have arrived a long time ago, and he still had to rely on himself this time, no matter what the imperial court thought, anyway, he must take back Yanbian this time, and at least Xu Shichang is supporting himself in this matter at the moment.

He Tianci also knew the danger of going to Yanbian this time, although Japan at this time in the Russo-Japanese War, has been disabled, but still has confidence in the rotten Qing court, once the war Japan suffered heavy losses, with the character of the Japanese will definitely launch a large-scale revenge on the Qing court, crazy counterattack, and the rotten Qing court will definitely advocate peace, then his efforts will all be in vain.

But this battle must still be fought, the territory of the motherland must be intact, not only to deter the Japanese, but also not to let the Japanese casualties be too large, forcing the Japanese army to come to the table to talk about things, so this battle is really too difficult to fight, I really admire how Wu Luzhen in the parallel world handles it.

He Tianci's brows were tightly locked, and the tattoo on the head of the king character was a little hideous, this is really a problem, this matter is done well, the great hero who defends the territorial integrity of the country, if he can't do it, he will be a big sinner! I am not afraid of the Japanese, if the Qing Dynasty is willing to do its best, then there will be a war between China and Japan, after all, the Japanese army at this time in the northeast is only 10,000 people, and the German power has also been introduced into Mukden, Japan will also have some scruples.

It's just that this soldier is also a problem, at present, most of his non-commissioned officers are studying in the martial arts hall, and the soldiers of the middle patrol battalion are also conducting targeted speed, endurance, and shooting training for the wedge-shaped charge introduced by the Japanese non-commissioned officers, as well as the tactics of combining artillery and foot, which is really a problem.
