The gate of the border affairs opened, and five thousand defenders rushed out, throwing their rifles to the ground, and they walked and stood very consciously. Xu Shuzheng looked at this scene expressionlessly, and said in his heart, if Genghis Khan lived, he would definitely die again by these grandsons.

The soldiers are bloodless, and Cullen changes hands. Five thousand soldiers were escorted away, and in the makeshift camp outside the city, the road from Kulen to Guisui was too difficult to walk, and these prisoners would become the main force in building the road. Originally, according to Xu Shuzheng's meaning, he just gave them some food every day, and he didn't care if they lived or died. Wang Tianzhong said: "With so many strong laborers, it's not easy to get together." So the fate of these captives changed, at least they had enough to eat and work every day, and it was not a big deal that they had almost eaten enough.

When the last captive came out, Xu Shuzheng proudly looked up and laughed loudly, and raised his whip: "Enter the city!" ”

When the national defense army entered the city, Xu Shuzheng came to the door with a military doctor to see Jebtsunbadan, who claimed to be sick. After coming out of the living Buddha's residence, Xu Shuzheng said that the living Buddha's illness was very serious, and he would be sent to Yanjing to ask the best doctor for treatment. In order to ensure a quiet environment for the living Buddha to recuperate, a battalion of soldiers protected the living Buddha in the afternoon.

After treating the living Buddha, it was already dusk in the city of Kulen, intermittent gunshots rang out, and soldiers with torches began to occupy every street, going from house to house to arrest Russians. As long as it is Russian, regardless of gender, regardless of occupation, all arrested. After tossing all night until dawn, it finally quieted down, and it was later said that on this night, a total of more than 30 princes' homes caught Russians. Then he was very unlucky to become an "accomplice".

Early the next morning, the Living Buddha and his entourage, more than 100 people, under the protection of two cavalry regiments equipped with 20 infantry guns, embarked on the road to Yanjing to "see a doctor".

Xu Shuzheng was very enthusiastic and personally sent out ten miles of land, and then returned to Kulun. Just returned to Kulun, Xu Shuzheng, who has been smiling more for the past two days, can't see the slightest smile on his face. When he saw Ma Lin greeting him at the door, he asked, "Are you ready?" ”

Ma Lin nodded, and Xu Shuzheng sneered murderously: "Let's go, go to the scene and have a look." ”

The so-called scene was the execution ground, in a dirt square in the middle of the city, with two flagpoles in the middle, and a row of Russians kneeling in the square. More than 300 Russians were captured in the city of Kulun, including more than 50 women. The women were held in solitary confinement and had to do things every day, such as washing clothes and getting food. All the men are heinous horse bandits!

The place of execution was enclosed by the blazing bayonets, and the Mongol princes and the people of Kulen were forced to the edge of the square. The square was so large that five or six thousand people were "invited" to watch the execution. At this time, the princes and nobles and their people, there was no distinction between high and low, and all of them were under the threat of dozens of light machine guns from the commanding heights around and a dozen Makqin lined up on the opposite side.

The executioner pronounced the crimes of these "horse bandits" and their accomplices, and finally announced the execution. When the execution was announced, the surrounding people and princes and nobles shook for a while, but in front of the bayonet, they still bowed their heads.

A total of thirty-six Russian advisers were shot, as well as ten princes and nobles who were actively involved in the puppet regime. Badma Dorji was not dragged to shoot targets, but did the same thing as before, as a dog. The difference is that previously the Russians were used as dogs.

The thumping gunshots rang out one after another, and the smoke cleared, leaving corpses lying on the ground. There are large trucks waiting to pull away the bodies of the Russian advisers and bury them casually, leaving the other bodies in place for the family to collect. The thick smell of blood permeated the square, and many viewers lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at such a cruel scene. Some mothers cover their children's eyes with their hands. Some relatives of the "same party" were crying and crying, but they did not dare to come forward. The eyes of hatred are more concentrated on Badma Dorzi, the former "prime minister". At this moment, Badma Dorji has no way to retreat, and must hold on to the thighs of the Wehrmacht, so he is very hard to command a group of minions to maintain order.

The action of shooting the "horse bandits" was quite effective. At noon, Badma Dorji brought dozens of princes and nobles who were not "implicated" to Xu Shuzheng's headquarters and sent gifts with smiling faces. Badma Dorji patted his chest on the spot and said that the Mongolian people's hearts to the imperial court were all done by a handful of careerists.

Xu Shuzheng accepted the gift, and after a few words of appeasement, he sent these people away. Then ask the telecommunications office to send a telegram to Yanjing, informing them of the whole process. In fact, the whole process of the operation, Fang Jianxiong had other channels in Yanjing to know first.

Jiang Fangzhen appeared excitedly at the door of Fang Jianxiong's office with a telegram, and no one dared to stop him, and he had to salute. General Staff Chiang swaggered in. "Fuguo, Xu Youzheng called, Kulen is in his hands, the next step is to send troops to the border and reach Kyakhta. I didn't expect it to be so easy, and the puppet political axe surrendered without firing a shot. Jeb

Zumbadan is also on the road, and it will be possible to reach Yanjing in a month at most. ”

Fang Jianxiong smiled, and unhurriedly picked up the cigarette and lit it, the Zhizhu was very unbeatable. At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Yang Yongtai came in and said, "Fushuai, Lanzhou emergency electricity." ”

"Read!" Fang Jianxiong turned around and walked to the window, looking out of the window, thinking while smoking, it was a bit unfathomable. "Yan Jing, Chairman of the National Defense Military Commission, Minister Huang of the Ministry of National Defense, and Chief of General Staff of Chiang. Yesterday, it was said that Chen Shufan's troops arrived at the periphery of Dihua, and this morning Yang Dingchen led more than 100 troops out of the city for more than 30 miles to greet them. Dingchen language: Outside the Yumen Pass, I am looking forward to the king for a long time, and now I see the king's banner, and the responsibility of the border can be relieved, and I pray for permission to return to my hometown,......。 ”

Yang Yongtai thought about it, Fang Jianxiong was silent for a long time, and only then did he turn around when the smoke burned his hands, and sighed: "Call back: Ding Lao (Yang Zengxin) has worked the border, has not lost his land, and his merit is in the contemporary era, and his fame will be famous." When the army first arrived, public opinion was not noticed, and it was hoped that Ding Lao would stay in Dihua and suffer for another three years,......。 ”

Although Yang Zengxin has such and such problems, such as advocating superstition, being conservative in politics, and engaging in ignorance of civil affairs, etc., history must look at his political achievements fairly. It is precisely because of him that Xinjiang Province has made decisive sorties since the Republic of China, defeating small groups of Russian invasion troops many times without losing an inch of land. The credit for preserving the land of the whole country alone cannot be overstated.

Yang Yongtai went out to call back, Jiang Fangzhen's face hesitated slightly, and he still opened his mouth with a gritted tooth: "Fuguo, Duan Zhiquan is in Lanzhou, Xu Youzheng is in Kulun, and the two places have more than 100,000 troops, and the emperor is far away, so you must guard against it." ”

Fang Jianxiong glanced at Jiang Fangzhen in surprise, and his heart said that this was definitely not from his thoughts. Jiang Fangzhen is a person who will not use this mentality to ponder people. So who told him to say this?

"Hehe, this is not what it used to be, how can the large-scale transfer of the Wehrmacht be separated from the General Staff Order? I pondered, this shouldn't come from Brother Baili's heart, right? Fang Jianxiong also tried that trick, and asked directly.

Jiang Fangzhen was a little embarrassed, after all, there was very little time to gossip behind his back. He smiled, and did not explain, defend, or answer. With this attitude, Fang Jianxiong guessed in his heart who said this in front of him, and if there was no evidence, it would be better not to hear it. Even if there is evidence, so what?

However, the practice of some people who are trying to win over the armed forces and try to divide and provoke contradictions within the armed forces is certainly intolerable. On the surface, it seems to be well-intentioned, but in reality it is not. Fang Jianxiong knew very well in his heart that some people would definitely be dissatisfied with the actual form of power in the current Republic of China.

"Brother Baili's worries are not unreasonable, but I have confidence in Zhi Lao, especially on major issues of right and wrong. At present, there are two pressing tasks on military issues: First, to calm Mongolia and create new people's hearts and minds, and to strengthen the defense of the frontiers, and second, to build communications between the two places. Fang Jianxiong changed the topic and returned to business.

Jiang Fangzhen also returned to normal, walked to the wall, pulled the curtain, looked at the map and said: "From a military point of view, Kulen is in hand, and he can cut off the Trans-Siberian Railway at any time. At the moment of the war in Europe, the Russians are powerless to be distracted, and there will inevitably be actions in the future. We need to step up our military preparations before they do. Now the role of the two engineer brigades and the Jin merchants is highlighted, and a strong fortress can be built on the line of Sukhbaatar and Kyakhta, the road will be widened, and a fortress garrison brigade will be stationed. As long as this area is held, the offensive can cut off the Trans-Siberian railway at any time, and the defender can hold out for a week or two, waiting for reinforcements. As for the materials needed to repair the fortress, they were handed over to the Jin merchants for procurement, provided that the quality must be guaranteed. In this way, firstly, the trade routes are opened, which is convenient for stabilizing the place, and secondly, the military expenditure and manpower expenditure can be greatly reduced. ”

Because of the collusion with wild boar skins in the late Ming Dynasty, Fang Jianxiong really didn't have much affection for Jin Shang in his heart. But you can't always look at people with old eyes, now is the era of the unification of the Republic of China, no matter what skin he has, he is a citizen of the Republic of China. As long as you abide by the law, you must treat it fairly. Don't discriminate, what kind of preferential treatment, see the fucking hell.

After settling Mongolia and Singapore, strategically the biggest threat on land is in a posture that can be attacked at any time, and this is the so-called active defense posture. This positive defensive posture, in turn, has created powerful external conditions for long-term peace and stability in the northeast. Of course, this is not the whole concept of a defensive strategy, and there is still no time for the last part to be implemented.

In any case, with the dispatch of troops from the two places, Fang Jianxiong turned his gaze to the northeast again.

"Defend the Northeast, build the Northeast." The headline of the National Defense Times on 3 February was that Northeast China is rich in natural resources, rich in coal and iron, and has the conditions for large-scale development of the iron and steel industry. Agriculture, rich in high-quality soybeans, land resources are extremely abundant, the political axe should be organized to resettle, the development of the northeast industrial and agricultural .......
