Wang Mengfu, chief of staff of the Third Army of the Li Chuang Group Army stationed in Liaodong, and Kojima Kumaji, a senior spy of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, were assigned by Genjiro Akashi to ascertain Xiong Kun as a Chinese antique dealer and infiltrated the Liaodong Peninsula half a year ago.

Xiong Kun approached the chief of staff, Wang Meng, who was Wang Meng's nephew, by bribing Yang Sheng, a staff officer of the Third Army of Liaodong.

Wang Meng likes to collect calligraphy and paintings, so Xiong Kun likes it, and has a close relationship with Wang Meng as an antique dealer.

Xiong Kun said: "Chief of Staff Wang, looking at the Liaodong Group Army, you are the most ambitious soldier, and Xiong admires you very much.

Judging from your preferences, you can know that you have a deep love for our Chinese culture, and from the poems and essays you wrote, you can know that General Wang cares about the fate of the Chinese nation and is full of ambition to serve the country.

Now, seeing that the Hainan army has lost its original vigor since defeating the Japanese Manchurian Army, it has done nothing outside the pass, and the head of the Qing court is close at hand. ”

Wang Meng looked at Xiong Kun suspiciously, and said, "Mr. Xiong, how can you care about politics as a businessman?" ”

Xiong Kun said: "Chief of Staff Wang, when the Qing army entered the customs, Mr. Gu Yanwu once said that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband.

What's more, General Wang, a high-ranking general in the mighty army like you?

The Liaodong army in Hainan is imposing and prestigious, why not take advantage of this time to enter the customs in a big way and approach the Beijing Division? ”

Wang Meng said: "The prince has his own arrangements, overthrowing the Qing court, it is not as simple as you said, he is a national strategy, after all, the Qing court has a foundation of hundreds of years, and the foundation is deep.

Moreover, the various forces in the country contain each other, and if they rashly attack Jingshi, it will inevitably cause chaos in the world, and the domestic situation at that time will be even more complicated.

Therefore, the prince must have taken this into account, and even more aspects, which is not what an officer of my level has considered.

Mr. Xiong, please stop talking about state affairs in the future, I am afraid that I will give people authority because of this. ”

Xiong Kun said: "Xiong is just a little anxious, and he doesn't know much about military and politics, I'm just talking casually." ”

At this time, the signal corps came to report, and the military headquarters held an emergency military meeting.

In the military conference hall of the Third Army Military Headquarters, Army Commander Lin Xiangyang said: "I have just received a tip that the logistics warehouse of the Military Headquarters of the Third Army has recently been harassed many times by a small group of Qing troops, which has stolen a lot of our army's military supplies.

Commander Li instructed that this Qing army should only be warned and that it must cause a large-scale conflict, so as not to have an accident and break out into war, which will disrupt the entire strategic plan of the prince.

In addition, General Li instructed that for this Qing army, it is necessary to pay attention to screening, and it is possible that the remnants of the Japanese are disguised.

The remnants of these Japanese were all scattered after the Liaodong War, scattered in the mountains as part of the bandits, these Japanese troops have been rampant recently, they want to create friction between the Hainan army in Liaodong and the Qing army in Guannai, so as to trigger a large-scale war, to disrupt our whole China. ”

Wang Meng said: "Commander Lin, are we a little too cowardly, since we know that they are pretending to be Japanese soldiers, why don't we just destroy them." ”

Lin Xiangyang said: "It is very simple to destroy them, but their purpose is to make us do this, so as to create friction between us and the Qing army." ”

Deputy Army Commander Zhao Beiping said: "Commander Lin, at present, the Qing army in the Guannai is only about 100,000 people, and our Liaodong army is nearly 200,000 people, why are you still afraid of them? ”

Lin Xiangyang said: "You are all pig brains, do you think that if you fight a battle, you will solve the problem by destroying the Qing court?" The prince said that overthrowing the Qing court should be a very simple matter.

However, once that happens, the situation will be difficult to control, and we will face many enemies, including the Qing court, and the spearhead of these forces is the Qing court.

Therefore, the national strategy of the prince was to first fight foreign enemies, establish the prestige of the Hainan army in the whole country, and then destroy these scattered forces one by one, and finally force the Qing court to hand over the ruling power of the whole country.

This is the prince's far-sighted decision, can you pig brains think of it? ”

Deputy Army Commander Zhao Beiping nodded, and said with understanding: "Oh, it turns out that this is the case, I understand what the prince meant, if the Qing court is directly overthrown at this time, the world will be in chaos because of this, and we will not only suffer enemies on all sides, but also become sinners in the world." ”

Lin Xiangyang said with a smile: "Just understand, the most important thing now is to learn restraint, and besides, the prince has given us the Liaodong army a clear instruction to only be a town guard, not to attack!"

I will leave the military headquarters tomorrow and go to Mukden to attend a meeting of the group army headquarters at and above the army level, and before leaving, I would like to reiterate that our Third Army is stationed in the most sensitive area of Shanhaiguan, and we must not take the initiative to provoke a war, fall into the hands of the Japanese, and those who disobey military orders will be dealt with by military law and will not be tolerated! ”

In the palace of Hainan, Su Qun, minister of military intelligence, reported to Chen Zhong on the situation of the troops stationed in Hainan.

Su Qun said: "The situation of the armies in the Liangguang and Guangxi regions is basically stable, and Japanese activities on the Liaodong Peninsula are rather rampant.

After the end of the Russo-Japanese War, some scattered Japanese soldiers hid in the Changbai Mountains and became bandits, and Japanese spies had already contacted them and began to operate in the Changbai Mountain area.

According to information from MI6, the Japanese spies have recently pretended to be Qing troops and kept harassing the Third Army and the surrounding garrisons, and their purpose is obvious, which is to create friction, which should be a very dangerous signal. ”

After listening to Su Qun's report, Chen Zhong pondered for a while and said: "The Liaodong garrison cannot start a war with the Qing army, and this king placed this chess piece in the northeast to prevent the Japanese from colluding with other forces in the country, and the Liaodong army was placed here to deter the Japanese."

If the Liaodong garrison starts a war with the Qing army, because the logistical supply line is too long, the follow-up supply from Hainan cannot be delivered in time, and it will inevitably suffer from the enemy on its back and fall into a situation of being alone and going deep. ”

Zhao Beiping, deputy commander of the military headquarters of the Third Army in Liaodong, received a report that a group of Qing troops had not only raided the ammunition warehouses of the Third Army, but also forcibly entered the houses of the Third Army and raped the women.
