After Wu Xiaoliang returned to Kulen, the telegram from Suidong finally fulfilled his uneasiness, and the United States had officially sent a note to the Beiyang government, demanding that the Beiyang government explain the unauthorized occupation and blockade of Vladivostok, which was not in accordance with international law, and that the port must be opened and the Japanese army should be allowed to cooperate with the international community's intervention in the Russian civil war.

This telegram relayed the full content of the diplomatic note, the attitude of the United States is not tough, Fang Qidao and Yin Chengfu both believe that it is very simple to go back, anyway, the Beiyang government has no binding force on Suidong at all, because the crisis was resolved, Wu Xiaoliang immediately canceled the action of several elites of the Suidong Army to go to Outer Mongolia, so Vladivostok is still in charge of Fang Qidao at this time, and another purpose of his call this time is also to ask Wu Xiaoliang how to reply to the Beiyang government.

Although the Americans' wording was not tough enough, he felt a chill between the lines, and the Americans would never do anything that was not painful, and sure enough, when Suidong and the Beiyang government were arguing, the United States began to become impatient, and sent a more forceful note to Duan Qirui, urging him to immediately open Vladivostok, and also attached a condition to remove Wu Xiaoliang from his post.

The news that Wu Xiaoliang got in Kulen was all turned around from Vladivostok, and this proviso made everyone resentful, and even Li Zhenqing, who was usually known for his calmness, slapped the table.

"If those bigwigs in Beiyang agree to the conditions of the American devils, they will be covered with lard and chill the hearts of my 100,000 Suidong Army."

Li Zhenqing slapped the table to vent his anger, and added: "I should tell Brother Zhizhi, if necessary, extraordinary measures can be taken, and we must stabilize the situation in Suidong, we can't mess up the situation ourselves." ”

Wu Xiaoliang nodded in agreement, he has no better way to deal with the current situation, if you talk about the domestic situation, with his strength as a small warlord, he may still have some power, but in international affairs, to a strong country like the United States and Japan, he has no room to intervene at all, even if he does, people may not be able to pay attention to him.

A day later, that is, on 15 December, the Kolchak regime formally protested to the Beiyang government, demanding the return of its Vladivostok, Duan Qirui finally did a very happy thing, he ignored it on the grounds that the Republic of China did not recognize the Kolchak local regime, but the Kolchak regime was not so easy to give up, and immediately sued the Americans.

The United States exerted pressure again, this time with the threat of sending troops, but he did not mobilize his own troops, but stationed troops in North China in Machang, and saw the American devils showing their Japanese fangs, and the bigwigs of the Beiyang government were afraid, but just when they were ready to compromise, a major event occurred in Beijing.

First of all, the "Beijing Times" took the lead in stirring up the first whirlpool in Beijing's stagnant waters, and the article that the Beiyang government intended to remove Wu Xiaoliang, who had recovered Outer Mongolia, in order to please the foreigners, was reported with great vigour, and then it was reprinted by the major newspapers in Beijing, and it soon spread to various cities in the south with an alarming degree, and public opinion was in an uproar, and there were numerous petitions and demonstrators in various places, and students of colleges and universities in Beijing even began to strike classes and march on the streets to strongly protest against this matter.

Originally, Premier Duan Qirui didn't take Wu Xiaoliang's disposal to heart, except for his legal status in Suidong, it was not a matter of minutes, and now Xu Youzheng is not there, no one speaks for this hairy boy, even if Duan Qirui does not interfere, his removal will only be sooner or later, although Wu Xiaoliang's last disaster made Duan Qirui regain the power of the prime minister because of the blessing of misfortune, but he never wants to have an unstable dìng factor, and drag himself back from time to time, so he acquiesced to the small actions behind the big guys.

Who would have thought that the students had a demonstration again, this student gave him more headaches than Wu Xiaoliang, and the whole incident was made public, forcing the Beiyang government to not be able to deal with Wu Xiaoliang at this juncture, and Duan Qirui was in a dilemma.

However, the Americans, regardless of Duan Qirui's dilemma, once again put pressure on the Beiyang government on 17 December, and unlike the previous times, Japan also directly participated in the invasion, and made it clear that Vladivostok must be returned to Kolchak, and at the same time, Wu Xiaoliang must be dismissed from his post.

Although Japan in the Beiyang era was rampant, it did not reach the reckless Cheng dù, and several local battles with the people of China were undeclared wars, and they still ended in a fiasco, which made it difficult for those important ministers of the Japanese cabinet to open their mouths in terms of law and results, and they simply forgot about it selectively, which is also one of the reasons why Suidong had several skirmishes with Japan, but they were little known in the world, and they did not attract large-scale retaliation from Japan.

But this time, the Japanese seized the opportunity to pull the United States, which had the power of victory in the European War, to the generals who had defeated them several times came to a plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, this trick was really vicious, and the fools of the Beiyang government already had signs of not being able to support it, but the explosion of the student movement made the Beiyang bigwigs walk on thin ice, for fear that if they were not careful, they would leave a reputation among the Chinese people through the ages, and their attitude was repeated again.

The representatives of the United States and Japan were dissatisfied with the pressure again, and the Beiyang bigwigs played the ball and kicked the ball to the 6th Military Headquarters, and an official document acting at its discretion was sent to the 6th Military Headquarters, but the official document implied between the lines that Wu Xiaoliang was dismissed and another person was appointed.

The Beiyang bigwigs set up a divisive plan this time, appointing Fang Qidao as the representative of Suidong, and the position of service representative was also something they racked their brains to come up with, after all, Suidong is still a family in legal theory, in order to avoid stimulating the powers, they came up with the name of service representative, but in fact, it is an overview of military and government affairs, and the power is greater than that of the domestic overseers.

Fang Qidao received the appointment order and was indignant.

"Is it so difficult to do something in China today, and how unfair the central government is to the central government."

He felt unfair for Wu Xiaoliang, so he immediately telegraphed the whole country to support Wu Xiaoliang and resolutely resist the order of the Beiyang government.

Wu Xiaoliang smiled bitterly after seeing Fang Qidao's power, he knew that since it was difficult for the United States and Japan to join forces, it was impossible for the Suidong Army to pass the test so easily.

Sure enough, on 20 December, the North China garrison army launched a military exercise in the Pingjin area, and the air in Pingjin and Tianjin was immediately frozen, extremely tense, and there was a great tendency to touch the matter, and then news came that the Japanese Second Division had assembled at the border between Korea and Vladivostok, and at the same time, the Third Brigade of the Manchurian Railway Garrison also left for the Yanhun area.

In the end, even Zhang Zuolin, the quasi-father-in-law of Wu Xiaoliang, the leader of the Feng army, sent a telegram to express his position, persuading Wu Xiaoliang to go into the field to ease the situation and not to become a sinner who caused the war.

Kulun and Wu Xiaoliang had just received a telegram from Vladivostok that Ren Fuyuan, the envoy of Binjiang Town, had colluded with Zhang Zuoxiang to expel the road guards of the First Division, and had successfully taken control of the Middle East Railway on the Acheng line of Binjiang, and the communication line from Suidong to Hulun had been cut off.

Li Zhenqing said angrily: "What kind of world is this, the jackal is in charge, and the countryman is wronged......"

Wu Xiaoliang fell into deep contemplation, where should Suidongjun and him go......
