Japan's invasion of Northeast China has become a fact, Qin Yu's worst concern happened, military spending is indeed insufficient, so he still resolutely found someone from the Ministry of Finance to directly use half of his family's property as military expenses, and the matter of national debt was also put on the agenda.

There are also many things to do in the issuance of treasury bonds, such as how many treasury bonds should be issued and how many in China? Is it issued abroad, and how much? The landlords and merchants in China are still very rich, but the ordinary people do not have much money to spare, so they may issue foreign bonds if needed.

If the issuance of treasury bonds is not well controlled, it is easy for them to be used by foreign financial speculators, and it is also easy to be controlled by a certain country, which in turn will affect the country's prices and consumption, and so on. Of course, if you are strong enough, you will not mind this, just like the United States in later generations, the whole world borrows money or asks other countries to buy its bonds, and no one dares to do anything to it if you owe a lot of debt.

Soon, the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Finance of the Chinese Empire began to study and deploy the issue of treasury bonds, and the first thing to do was to build momentum, and it was good news that Qin Yu once again took out half of his wealth to support the war expenses.

On the day that Qin Yu took out half of his property and handed it over to the Ministry of Finance, the headline of the Imperial Daily was this. The report published some of the expenditures of the Ministry of Finance, and also revealed that the Empire's finances had been overspent and could no longer support the Empire's war in the Northeast, and the Great Majesty did not hesitate to take out his ordinary wealth to support the war in the Northeast. The whole article is singing praises to Qin Yu, and at the end, it is said in a few words that the empire is deploying the issuance of treasury bonds in order to support domestic construction and development, which is the most important.

Soon after the publication of the Imperial Daily, the people spontaneously formed a donation activity, and all major cities and even remote counties in the country were carrying out fund-raising activities, in order to support the empire to defeat Tsarist Russia and Japan, and at the same time the consumption of the war with the two countries did not need to be thought about Everyone knew well, not to mention that the empire had only been established for a long time, and there was certainly not much money and the like. If the empire loses to these two countries, it will definitely have to pay a very large price, and the compensation for the cession of land is absolutely indispensable, and it may lead to the collapse of the entire empire, and China will once again enter a period of chaos, which is intolerable to the people of the empire, and they do not want to be exploited by the landlords and foreign powers anymore.

For Qin Yu's behavior of taking out his own property to support the war, he was attacked by some corrupt Confucians, saying that Qin Yu was leading the people of the empire and leading the people into militarism, and he was using military force. They believe that Huaxia is the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire, with a vast land and abundant resources, and many of the outside are barbarian lands, so they should not go to conquer other countries in a big way, and should hold peace talks with Russia and Japan.

There is no doubt that these people have been shouted and beaten by the people, and it is someone else who has hit the territory of the empire, so does the empire still want to negotiate peace with them in a good voice, and then cede these territories? It's just ridiculous!

Generally speaking, although the people of the empire are very worried about failure, they still support the empire, those who have money to contribute, and the conscription office is even more crowded!

The whole empire is now working together, and the workers in particular are bursting with great enthusiasm, and they are all working hard and working overtime, as if they were the ones on the battlefield.

Germany and the United States, which received Japan's invasion of the three eastern provinces of China, issued statements condemning Japan's actions and hoping that Japan would withdraw its troops as soon as possible. In addition, he also said that he would support some weapons and materials to the Chinese Empire free of charge, and the major German and American arms companies that had already accepted the orders for Chinese weapons were also working overtime to complete the task, especially Qin Yu's father-in-law directly contacted some German arms companies and asked them to buy some inventory to the Chinese Empire.

Germany was very angry at Japan's shameless behavior, seeing that the war between China and Tsarist Russia was about to be won, and the strength of Tsarist Russia would be further weakened.

As for the United States, it originally wanted to use Huaxia to contain Japan's rapid expansion and rise, but they didn't expect Japan to do it now, in their opinion, Huaxia is not Japan's opponent, not to mention that Huaxia is still fighting with Tsarist Russia.

The more tense the situation in the Far East became, the more the arms dealers benefited, and only in the war could they obtain more adequate benefits, and it was too late for them to rejoice in the Japanese attack on Northeast China, so they would not care who was at war.

……

Hunchun, Zhang Zuolin's Jilin Army is fighting hard with the Japanese army, the Japanese army and the navy have been storming Hunchun for three days, they have no support, weapons and ammunition are very lacking, fortunately there are some stored before, and they can support for two or three days, if the reinforcements are not yet available, they will have to retreat or die for the country.

"Commander Xu, when will the reinforcements arrive, the brothers are too tired, and they haven't slept for three days on the dog day!" A regimental commander next to him asked.

"I don't know, what happened, didn't you say that reinforcements would arrive soon? Has something happened? Xu Qiang didn't know what was going on, according to the order sent by the marshal, the army would arrive in the next two days, but there was no news now.

"Hold on, the marshal of such an important place as Hunchun will not give up, and the reinforcements are coming soon, I also know that the brothers are tired, let them hold on." Xu Qiang can only comfort everyone with this reason.

Xu Qiang didn't hate the Japanese in general, because all his relatives were killed by Japan, and he always wanted to take revenge, and it was in this way that he automatically joined Zhang Zuolin's army, and he worked for several years.

Looking at the Japanese soldiers in front of him, he held the heavy machine gun and fired wildly, his hideous face made several soldiers next to him very frightened, gritting his teeth, he didn't care so much at all, just thinking about destroying the enemy in front.

"Boom!" A cannonball exploded not far from Xu Qiang, and the blast of the explosion directly knocked him over in the trench.

When he stood up, there was already a small cut on his head, blood kept flowing from there, and most of his face was stained red, as if he had hit a machine gun. He spat hard, then straightened the machine gun and fired again, not bothering with the bleeding wound on his head, still muttering something on his mouth.

After several soldiers next to him saw the wound on Commander Xu's head, a soldier tore off a piece of the clean place of his clothes, and then several people ran up and hugged the regiment commander and shouted: "Regiment Commander, you don't want to die, hurry up and deal with the wound on your head, it is important to stop the bleeding." ”

"Let go of me, let me kill these Japanese soldiers of the dog day, I can't die from this injury." Xu Qiang struggled to continue shooting at the enemy, but was pushed aside by several soldiers and pressed into the trench, and one soldier quickly bandaged the wound and simply bandaged it and released him.

Xu Qiang touched the bandaged wound and grinned deeply, but soon he ran to the machine gun and shot the Japanese soldiers.

"Da Da Da!! Dadada!! ”

"Captain! Head! We were ordered from above to prepare to retreat, the number of Japanese troops began to increase, and we could not withstand it! A soldier ran to Xu Qiang's side and pulled him down the trench and shouted loudly.

"What retreat? Say it again. Xu Qiang, who was still buzzing in his ears, couldn't hear what the soldiers were saying.

"Retreat, the above ordered us to prepare to retreat, the Japanese army has increased its troops, what is the reason for the arrangement Our reinforcements have not arrived, and Hunchun is going to be abandoned above!"

"What the hell is going on, Hunchun can't give up, our only outlet to the sea in Jilin!" Xu Qiang roared.

The soldier shook his head helplessly, indicating that he didn't know, after all, he couldn't get in touch with the high-level things at all, just to spread the word.

"You go and tell the other soldiers, I'll do a few more Japanese soldiers, it's not enough!" After speaking, Xu Qiang held on to the machine gun and shot again.

The Japanese Korean troops had arrived at this time, and as soon as they arrived, they demanded to see the top leaders of the Vladivostok army, and they wanted to persuade them to stop attacking the Jilin army in Hunchun. However, an officer ran over in a hurry at this time and handed them a telegram to circulate, and after reading it, everyone's faces changed, Prime Minister Gonbei Yamamoto, isn't it Prime Minister Katsura Taro? When did it change? Prime Minister Uehonbei asked them to assist Vladivostok's army in attacking Jilin.

Then another officer came running and brought a telegram from the military headquarters explaining the changes in the country and asking them to follow the orders of Prime Minister Gonbei Yamamoto, whose orders had previously been invalid. Although they also knew that the political situation in the country was very turbulent, they did not expect that the Katsura Taro cabinet would collapse so quickly, and now they are very embarrassed!

The high-ranking Japanese officers of the Korean Legion soon understood what was going on, and although they were unhappy to have a navy commander prime minister, they also knew that it was a matter for the country to decide, so they had to follow the orders of the new prime minister to assist the army in Vladivostok to attack Kiklin.

The soldiers of the Korean Legion were puzzled by the orders of the commander and lowered their guns at the soldiers at the Vladivostok headquarters, while their superiors were nodding and apologizing to the army top brass in Vladivostok, and after a few explanations from the officers, they realized what was going on.

In order to be able to suppress the army in Vladivostok, the Korean army that came this time brought more than seventy percent of the troops, and more than 100,000 troops joined the Japanese side attacking Hunchun.

Hunchun's 100,000 Jilin army had already suffered more than 40,000 casualties in three days, and they were no opponent at all in the face of nearly 200,000 Japanese troops, and they broke more than half of the defense line of the Jilin defenders in just a few hours.

The Jilin defenders withstood the pressure and quickly prepared to retreat, and there was no need to pack up the supplies at all, because there was no time to pack up the supplies. In order to prevent these materials from falling into the hands of the Japanese army, they burned them ruthlessly, and took as much as they could.
