Chapter 184: Ghost Fox and World Ronin
The sniper firmly locked on Major Vasily, his big Russian belly was a natural target, and it was difficult to shoot even if he didn't want to hit. The sniper gestured to the squad leader for instructions.
The squad leader shook his head and resolutely stopped his request to shoot. The sniper just made a disgruntled face and didn't do anything else. In addition to teaching them some tactical moves, the Gurkha Guards also passed on their quiet and tenacious character to all the middle and lower-ranking officers of the Jianghuai Army, as well as mountain special forces and snipers. And tenacity is also the surname engraved in the bone marrow of the Chinese nation, and soon the Jianghuai Army melted this spirit into its own blood.
Vasily and others burned the robes that the Mongols had stripped off, faked the scene, and rode away on horseback satisfied. It was determined that the Russians had gone away, and the scouts of the advance army ran down the hillside like ghosts.
"Go, take these people's uniforms off!" The squad leader ordered.
The soldiers quickly took off the camouflage uniforms on the Mongolian corpses and took them away in a mess. The squad leader seemed to remember something, circled around the dead body twice, and suddenly showed a smug smile. He took out a few bills from his bosom and stuffed them into the underwear of the Mongolian corpse.
"Squad leader, what's that?" The sniper asked in a low voice.
"Nonsense, retreat immediately, and report the situation to Battalion Commander Zhang immediately!"
The scout carefully searched the scene to make sure that he had left no traces or lost items, and then he quietly disappeared from the side of the railway, and was soon obliterated by the vegetation, as if they had never been seen here.
After Zhang Shuyang heard their report, he immediately felt that the situation was urgent, and immediately contacted the deputy commander by telegram, and carefully reported everything that happened to Gu Nanshan. Then with the scouts who had witnessed everything, Pegasus ran forty miles to find the main force, and reported to Gu Nanshan again in person.
After Gu Mazi received the telegram, he immediately felt that his gaffe was serious, and ordered the sender to immediately forward the full text to the Military Advisory Office. When Zhang Shuyang and the others arrived, the squad leader of the scout stammered and told the story of stuffing a few banknotes on the Mongol's body, Gu Mazi's face suddenly burst into laughter, patted the squad leader's shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Thief, do a good job!" ”
??? Dividing line ???
"Isn't that right?" Chai Dongliang took the Chinese newspaper issued by the Russians and read it again and again, and suddenly patted his thigh.
"Governor, what do you see wrong?"
"Although Gu Mazi is bold, his brain is not stupid, it is impossible to make trouble in such a sensitive period, Secretary General Gao, you look at the content of the newspaper, it is said that the train was blown up at nine o'clock in the morning, and the news came out on the same day, and the content is so detailed, even the details are very clear, it seems to be a manuscript that has been arranged a long time ago! Newspapers generally arrange the manuscript the day before, typesetting and printing at night, and the newspaper is printed in just a few hours, there must be a problem! Chai Dongliang said categorically.
As a person in the era of information explosion in the 21st century, Chai Dongliang has long learned the ability to find loopholes in many news on the Internet that are difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. Twentieth-century newspapers were too poor in their ability to fabricate fake news.
"As soon as the governor said this, I also felt that something was wrong, so I sent a telegram to Gu Mazi." Gao Ming turned around and was about to leave.
The translator in the telegraph room ran over: "Governor, Deputy Commander Gu Nanshan is in a hurry!" ”
Chai Dongliang looked at the telegram again and again, and Gu Mazi sent a telegram of more than 2,000 words, almost copying the translator's fingers. Gu Mazi carefully reported to Chai Dongliang in detail how the Russians planted explosives, how they blew up Yuben's train, and how they shot the Mongols to blame the trouble.
This is a deliberate attempt to harm yourself! Chai Dongliang's fire suddenly burst out.
The advance army is now facing a very dangerous situation, and the more this happens, the more we need to be calm! Chai Dongliang secretly warned himself that he must not lose his reason and judgment because of anger.
"Governor, Deputy Commander Gu Nanshan is in an emergency!"
Chai Dongliang felt a pang in his heart, took it and looked at it, and immediately laughed.
Gao Ming leaned over and looked at it twice, and couldn't help laughing.
"Good boy, brave and resourceful!" Gao Ming raised his fingers and praised.
The squad leader of the scout stuffed the Mongols with a few banknotes in the underwear of the Mongols in the Russian rubles. When the advance army was in Mongolia, they purchased a large number of supplies with Russian merchants. Moreover, Russian merchants, at the instigation and connivance of the Consul General of Kulen, Shi Le Mafu, openly provided information to the advance army, the armament of the Mongol army, the number of artillery and cavalry, the equipment and mental outlook of the soldiers??? Almost everything can be exchanged for money. The advance army did not have a special intelligence agency, and the scouts made cameo appearances as spies, so almost every junior officer and non-commissioned officer at the level of squad and platoon leader had some rubles on them.
"Let the Russians shoot themselves in the foot!" Chai Dongliang sneered: "Inform Gu Nanshan and Lu Kai, if the Russians dare to provoke, give me a hard beating!" ”
"Secretary-General Gao, you ask someone to bring a message to Lu Kegong, if he is willing to resign from the position of acting governor of Jiangxi now, give him 300,000 yuan, let him live comfortably for the rest of his life, let the people of the Chamber of Commerce say, don't let people catch us??? Anyway, he doesn't have much taste as the acting governor, he will agree! In addition, please ask the people of the Anhui Chamber of Commerce and the Ningbo Chamber of Commerce to lobby the Jiangxi Provincial Council, as long as they are willing to elect you as the governor of Jiangxi, we will also set up an industrial park in Jiujiang, and give priority to letting them become shareholders, I don't believe that these rich people are not tempted! ”
"It's not difficult to lobby the Jiangxi Provincial Council, but please think twice, I'm afraid it's not okay for me to be the governor of Jiangxi, right?" Gao Ming was a little difficult.
"Who don't you deserve? You are qualified in our Anhui Military Advisory Office, and everyone is still not convinced! Don't shirk it, it's you, and besides, you, the governor, are different from other governors, just do a good job of civil affairs! Everything has me, and I will top it when the sky falls! Chai Dongliang waved his hand and stopped Gao Ming's humble words.
Chai Dongliang was the Jianghuai patrol envoy, and the military power of Jiangxi and Anhui was controlled by him alone. Therefore, the governor of Jiangxi only has the power to manage civil affairs, but he is not able to hold military power like other provinces. Chai Dongliang sent a division of the army to Nanchang, and Gao Ming, the governor of Jiangxi, had no other real power except to help him collect grain and taxes.
"Invite me the consuls of Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries in Wuhu, don't the Russians want to plant a false accusation? Then I will set up an international investigation team to make the affairs of Manchuria a big and lively! The smile on Chai Dongliang's face was even bigger.
"What do you mean?"
"Now Manchuria is a forbidden territory between Ben and Russia, which is very unfavorable to us??? I want to internationalize the Manchurian issue, since the foreigners have already controlled Manchuria, then the surname Suo will come to a few more countries, don't the foreigners say that the Chinese are closed off from the country? I'm just going to make a door open??? First of all, help me call the business representative of Bethlehem Company in Anhui, I have something to talk to him! ”
??? Dividing line ???
In the Shanghai Public Concession, he walked to the Tibetan Provincial Road in groups, the ronins wore clogs and inserted double knives and roared violently, and the merchants of the Covenant waved a banner of "punishing tyrannical support" and marched in the concession. Even the door of the Ji'an was closed, and the Jinu held a small plaster flag and joined the procession. Pingyu said that these peddling needles, threads, brains and small hardware are doing small business, bowing before talking with a smile on their faces, and their backs seem to be filled with springs. The newspapers in the concession reported on the "Xinminfu bombing" one after another, and sent the news back to the mainland after exaggerating it tenfold and hundredfold, which in turn triggered a large-scale [***] demonstration.
The gunfire of the Xinhai Revolution made him have the delusion of taking the opportunity to carve up China, but the opposition of the British, American and European powers forced them to suppress their own **. After the peace talks between the north and the south, China gradually tended to the momentum of reunification, and he was afraid. The enormous potential of a complete China is far beyond what it could have been, and I am well aware of this, as well as the European and American powers.
Out of Caucasian arrogance, Britain and the United States and other countries did not think that a unified China would become their opponent, but only as a huge dumping and raw material market, and it would be more beneficial for them to maintain China's stability and ostensible unity. It was the consensus of the European and American powers that China was more important than the original of the European and American powers, and even after the defeat of China in the First Sino-Japanese War, the situation did not change fundamentally. Li Hongzhang's visit to Europe and the United States was greeted with an unprecedented grand welcome, while Youpeng, a county friend who was also visiting the West, was given a cold reception. When the German newspaper interviewed Youpeng in Shanxi, he could only laugh and ridicule: "No way, Qing is a big country, and it should be treated with a higher scale." ”
Ito Hirobumi, a veteran minister who stepped down from the post of prime minister, heard that the Guangxu Emperor had hired him as the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty to carry out the reform of the law, and he couldn't sleep with excitement. It is said that Ben has worshiped China for thousands of years, and even if he defeated China, he still has a deep fear of this behemoth around him in his bones. Of course, it is impossible for the Qing Dynasty to let a foreigner be the prime minister, let alone let Yu himself, and the most unlikely thing is to let Ito Hirobumi be the prime minister. From Cixi to Li Hongzhang, they hate Ito Hirofumi to the point of itching at the root of their teeth, how can they hire an enemy to be their prime minister to assist the Qing Dynasty?
Under the deliberate instigation of the previous political axes, the dismemberment of China has become the consensus of the government and the opposition. Ordinary people yearn for the vast black land of Manchuria, and it seems that China is a country full of gold, as long as you are willing to bend down, you can pick it up. The soldiers dreamed of setting foot on Chinese soil again, occupying Manchuria, Mongolia, and thus conquering the whole of China.
The "Xinminfu bombing case" provided a good opportunity for Yuben to dream of, especially the soldiers were almost crazy with excitement. The crowds that come to the Diet and the political axe every day to petition almost overwhelm Tokyo.
The petitioners themselves meandered through the public concession, their shrill shouts like rats with broken bones from a rat trap, sounding bone-chilling. Indian patrolmen and American sailors in the concession area, carrying batons and rifles, watched the team nervously, vigilantly guarding the expansion of the situation. The Public Board of Directors of the Concession warned the Consulate General in Shanghai to exercise restraint and not to compromise the safety and tranquility of the Concession.
Yue himself, who lived in the French Concession, also began to make trouble, they smashed the shops of Chinese merchants, beat the Chinese in the Concession, and the French Concession did not know for what purpose and turned a blind eye to these things, and Yue himself became even more arrogant.
In the public concession, a brick and wood building is brightly lit, and the sound of Kabuki performances can be heard inside.
A yellow-skinned, blue-faced Chinese man exited the door and said, "If Mr. has a place where he can find his brother, even if he speaks, the brother of the Green Gang will still buy my face!" ”
A middle-aged man dressed in a robe and a horse coat and a melon skin hat dressed as a rich man in the Chinese countryside sent him to the door with a smile: "Mr. Chen, walk slowly, you will always be Mitsui Trading's best friend." ”
This house is the property of Mitsui & Co., and this person is Saburo Kuroda, who is in charge of China affairs from Mitsui & Co. And the Chinese with a smoky face, who knew without asking, was Chen Yingshi, the governor of Yangmei hiding in the French Concession.
Kuroda Saburo watched Chen Yingshi go out, picking out a mocking sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then walked into the house.
There were two people in kimonos in the room who watched Kabuki's performance, one elated and the other grim. Saburo Kuroda walked in, knelt down respectfully, and watched the performance with them in a serious manner.
Two old men, one with a fierce face, the other is thin and withered with a goatee and a lovely smile. Kuroda Saburo was in front of them, and he didn't dare to breathe as smoothly as possible.
"Good!" The thin old man clapped his palm, and said to the old man with a smile on his face: "Toushanjun, a mellow beauty, aren't you tempted?" ”
Toyama Man, one of the founders of the Black Dragon Society with Ryohei Uchida, only served Ito Hirobumi in his life, claiming to be a loyal lackey of Ito's disciples. Four years ago, he founded the "Ronin Club" in this book and claimed to be the "World Ronin". All the gangsters and radical factions of Ben regard him as the spiritual leader. Although he has never held any official position, he has a pivotal position in the political arena.
"Now that the situation is so tense, it's really admirable that Inu-kun is still so calm!" The head mountain is full of hard roads.
The thin old man waved his hand and motioned for Kabuki to step down, he picked up a glass of sake and said with a smile: "Tou-kun has been stirring up the wind and rain in East Asia for 20 years, will such a little turmoil still be taken to heart?" ”
"How is Prime Minister Okuma going to deal with the current situation in Manchuria?" Toushanman asked.
The thin old man smiled faintly: "What does Toushanjun think about what to do with it at all?" ”
"This kind of thing, I would like to hear the opinion of this ghost fox." Tou Shanman stared at the thin old man and said.
Inukai Yi, nicknamed Oni Fox, is Shigenobu Okuma's number one confidant and is also Ito's nemesis. Mitsunori Touyama has a deep hatred with Shigenobu Okuma, who was once assassinated by Mitsumi Toyama's men and blew up a leg.
Although Toushan Man and Inu Yangyi were political enemies of each other, it did not prevent them from coming to China together as Sun Wen's "revolutionary comrades" after the Xinhai Revolution.
The form after the Xinhai Revolution is extremely paradoxical because of the presence of such a group of "revolutionary comrades" with ill intentions!
Today, the "Xinminfu bombing" that occurred in Manchuria has become a topic of common concern among them, and politicians of different factions and political views are rarely sitting together.
'''Tangyuan promised yesterday that it would be 20,000 words today, even if it is a little hard, it will be done! I hope you can see the efforts of Tangyuan!
This month, Tangyuan will earn enough character!
