Shengjing City, the largest city in Northeast China. After more than a year of recovery, Shengjing City is as prosperous as ever. The wounds of war seem to have passed. As the capital of the early Manchu Qing Dynasty, the basic conditions here are much better than those of other cities. It's just that there is now a group of Japanese ronins wearing kimonos and stepping on clogs in Shengjing City.

Although this is the land of the Chinese, these Japanese regard themselves as masters. They wantonly beat the Chinese, robbed them of their belongings, molested women, and did all kinds of evil. However, Zhang Yuting, the overseer of Fengtian, turned a blind eye to this qiē. It's not that he doesn't want to take care of it, but he doesn't have the strength to manage it at all! Not to mention anything else, the Japanese railway garrison brigade in the northeast and the army stationed in Kwantung Prefecture alone are not something that Zhang Yuting can deal with. If you add the North Korean army that is close at hand, you can easily destroy Zhang Yuting.

Therefore, Zhang Yuting can only offer these Japanese as ancestors. Whenever you encounter a Japanese, you can only tolerate it.

A carriage drove out of the compound of the Shengjing branch of the Manchurian Railway, and although the carriage was filled by Goto Shinpei, the president of the Manchurian Railway, there were no guards around. In Goto Shinpei's view, the Japanese flag planted in front of the carriage was the best talisman in Shengjing City. No one dared to do anything to the Japanese wagon.

Next to the street, several Japanese ronin are collecting protection money from vendors. The vendor refused to pay the protection fee, and as a result, he was besieged by the Japanese ronin, and his nose and face were swollen. The surrounding vendors could only look numbly, not daring to help at all. The police in Shengjing City, after seeing this scene, left quickly, for fear that it would affect them.

"Humph! This is the Chinese. There is no hope for this nation. Then, their corpses will become the nourishment for the rise of the Great Japanese Empire! Since you are no longer qualified to lead the whole of East Asia, it is up to the Empire of Japan to do the work for you. Goto Shinpei lowered the curtain of the carriage and whispered.

For those ronin's behavior, Goto Shinpei didn't feel that there was anything wrong. Since the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese have been too bitter. Especially the people of the lower classes, almost all of them live a hot and aquatic life. In order to defeat China, Japan tightened its belt and developed armaments. After the defeat of China, the lives of the Japanese did not improve much. Huge foreign debts need to be repaid, and there is also a need to continue to develop domestic heavy industry and military power. Those ordinary people, in fact, did not receive much of the dividends of the war.

During the Russo-Japanese War, in order to challenge the polar bear. Once again, the Japanese are gambling with their national fortunes. Fortunately, Japan's luck is not bad. With the support of the British and the Americans, they won the battle against the Russians. Then it is time for these ordinary Japanese to share the dividends of the war. As for the oppressed Chinese, they can only blame their country for being too weak. This era was originally the era of the jungle. Without the support of a strong state, it can only be reduced to the existence of others who oppress it.

Goto Shinpei's carriage stopped outside a wide mansion. This is the mansion that belongs to Yang Tingyu, chief of staff of the Fengjun. Although, Yang Tingyu is ostensibly nothing more than the chief of staff of the 27th Town of the Army. However, in fact he was also the chief of staff of the entire Feng army. Among the Feng army, it is completely second only to Zhang Yuting.

Yang Tingyu is the same age as Zhang Yuting, and Yang Tingyu, who graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, is very trusted by Zhang Yuting. At the same time, Yang Tingyu has always been in contact with the Japanese side. Some of the cooperation between Zhang Yuting and the Japanese was drawn by Yang Tingyu.

After Goto Shinpei got out of the carriage, Yang Tingyu had already greeted him.

"Your Excellency President, your visit to the Humble House really makes the Humble House shine!" Yang Tingyu's face was full of smiles, as if he regarded Goto Shinpei, an old devil, as his own father.

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, you are too polite." The arrogance on Goto Shinpei's face was completely gone, and he looked humble.

"Come in!" After a short greeting, Yang Tingyu invited Goto Shinpei to the hall.

After the guests and hosts sat down and the next person served tea, the conversation quickly got to the point.

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, your closeness to the Great Japanese Empire, the Great Japanese Empire will not forget it. Did Zhang Dashuai reply to the mention of the Great Japanese Empire? Goto Shinpei asked.

As relations between Jilin and Japan deteriorated day by day, the Japanese side hoped to support Mukden to deal with Jilin. If you can support Mukden to destroy Jilin, or the Wu family, this will be the best result for Japan. However, in the early contacts, Zhang Yuting seemed to be wary of Japan. Therefore, Goto Shinpei hoped that Yang Tingyu would influence Zhang Yuting. Yang Tingyu has a high position and a good impression of Japan, so he is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. If it weren't for Yang Tingyu's lack of qualifications in the Feng army, the Japanese side would even have a plan to support Yang Tingyu to replace Zhang Yuting.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, President, for your care. The marshal has always been wary of the Japanese Empire. Therefore, there are still doubts about comprehensive cooperation with the Japanese Empire. However, please rest assured, I will do my best to convince the marshal. Yang Tingyu hurriedly said.

Goto Shinpei nodded, Japan's ambitions for China are well known. Although most of the ordinary Chinese are insensitive. However, these people in power, who have a certain amount of power in their hands, are still wary of Japan. However, Goto Shinpei believes that these people are just using the mantis arm as a car. Japan will eventually annex the country soon.

"Jilin is now frantically expanding its army, doesn't Zhang Dashuai feel the crisis? According to the latest information obtained by the empire, the scale of Jilin's military expansion this time is definitely more than 100,000. If Jilin completes the expansion of the army, the first one to deal with will inevitably be Mukden. ”

"Your Excellency President, the marshal has also noticed this. Therefore, he planned to expand the army again, preparing to form five more independent brigades. It's just that there is a big gap in equipment and military spending. I think this should be an opportunity for the Great Japanese Empire. Yang Tingyu said.

Goto Shinpei was immediately overjoyed: "Then please contact Zhang Dashuai and tell him that the Japanese Empire is willing to solve this problem for him!" ”

"Okay, Your Excellency President, I'll do my best to arrange time for you." Yang Tingyu nodded.

Under the operation of Yang Tingyu, Zhang Yuting met with Goto Shinpei the next afternoon. Although, Zhang Yuting was wary of Goto Shinpei. However, under the threat of Jilin, the Japanese have become his only supporters.

"Your Excellency, I've admired my name for a long time. The Empire of Japan has always had great respect for heroes like the Great Marshal, and we look forward to working more closely with Mukden under the Great Marshal's rule. Goto Shinpei said with a humble face.

"Your Excellency, you are too polite. I've always considered Japan a friend. Zhang Yuting smiled.

Zhang Yuting knew that now there was no one to help him except the Japanese. Although, he knew that this was undoubtedly a wolf into the house. However, he believed that if he could dominate the northeast, he would have enough strength to fight the Japanese. That's why he agreed to come to meet the Japanese today.

"Your Excellency, I heard that you have been in some trouble lately. The Great Japanese Empire was the most willing to be generous to others. For our friends, we have never been stingy to help. Goto Shinpei threw out the bait.

Zhang Yuting hesitated, this was the last struggle in his heart. However, for the sake of their own interests, they also think about their own hegemony. Zhang Yuting still intends to accept the conditions of the Japanese, even if it is a false grievance with the Japanese.

"Your Excellency, President, if I accept your kindness. So, what do I have to lose? Zhang Yuting asked directly.

"Your Excellency, Jilin is our common enemy. They were very unfriendly to the Japanese Empire. Therefore, supporting Mukden to defeat Jilin is what we are willing to see. Of course, the marshal only needs to give us a little help. Goto Shinpei had a smile on his face. Since Zhang Yuting has decided to accept help, this means that Zhang Yuting can no longer resist the temptation of Japan. Slowly, Zhang Yuting will become an agent of Japan, or a puppet under Japanese control.

Subsequently, Goto Shinpei generously offered to provide Zhang Yuting with a low-interest loan worth two million yen. In addition, a batch of Japanese-style equipment can be provided to Zhang Yuting for free. It was used to arm the five independent brigades planned to be expanded by Zhang Yuting.

However, Zhang Yuting had to agree to further open the market in Mukden to Japan. Japan also has the right of first refusal to exploit various mineral resources in Mukden. In addition, Goto Shinpei demanded that Zhang Yuting stop supplying iron ore to Jilin. thinks that this is an enemy, once Jilin becomes strong, isn't it Fengtian that will suffer first?

These requirements are not a big deal for Zhang Yuting. However, the supply of iron ore to Jilin is stopped, which is a bit troublesome. After all, Zhang Yuting had promised Wu Haoxuan at the beginning. The Wu family withdrew from the battle for Fengtian, and Zhang Yuting had to provide those conveniences for the Wu family. If it goes back on its word, it will be a bit too unjust. In addition, I am afraid that this will also lead Fengtian and Jilin to tear their faces immediately.

Therefore, Zhang Yuting agreed to the first few demands of the Japanese side, and as for the latter one, Zhang Yuting said that he had to think about it in the long run. And Goto Shinpei has no objection to this. In his opinion, Zhang Yuting has already begun to cooperate with Japan anyway. As long as the cooperation deepens step by step, Zhang Yuting will eventually be unable to escape the palm of their hands.

With the support of the Japanese, Zhang Yuting's plan to expand the army was very smooth, and soon five more independent brigades were raised.
