Chapter 314: Collaboration with the enemy

Wu Xiaoliang decided to take control of Muxa, a town with more than half of the distribution of materials in Outer Mongolia, and the reason was to cut off the supply of materials to the Japanese army west of Mount Kent at the root, and now the Suidong Army has controlled the Chechen Khan in eastern Outer Mongolia, and the transportation from Mukden and Jilin to Outer Mongolia has all been under his control, and the Japanese have to transit through the Chechen Khan if they want to reach Kulen.

Wu Xiaoliang used the requisition as an excuse and promised to trade money and goods at the same time, dispelling all kinds of doubts and stabilizing these merchants.

After all that should be said, Wu Xiaoliang announced the dismissal of the meeting, and the merchants left the yurt with all their gains and losses.

"This young Wu Dashuai is still hairy."

"Who said it wasn't, it's too easy to fool."

"Nowadays, which handsome man does not make an IOU, and who dares not to deliver the IOU."

The vast majority of these merchants came from Shanxi, the Jin merchants monopolized the Mongolian trade routes, as early as the Ming Dynasty, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was with the Hou Jin eyebrows, the secret passage song, it is because of the Jin merchants' storage zài, the Hou Jin survived the material blockade of the Ming Dynasty, Wu Xiaoliang in the previous life, read a lot of articles about the Jin merchants in the Ming and Qing dynasties, whether true or false, but they did not have a good impression of them, I only hope that these people, in their own direct jurisdiction honest, do not make any moths.

As long as these merchants do not invest their materials to the enemy, Wu Xiaoliang even wants to support some merchants here, after all, trade can be conducive to the prosperity of the region, this is a good thing in the long run, the Suidong Army has its own material transportation channels, after the liquidation of the Chechen Khan, the materials have been extended from Binjiang to the Eastern Railway through Hulun, and then transferred to the trucks to Outer Mongolia, it is reported that the first batch of supplies has passed through Krulun and will soon arrive in Muksa.

Half a month has passed, the consumption of ammunition has bottomed out, and before the first batch of supplies arrives in Muqsa, it is not suitable to make a big move.

Originally, it was the Cossacks led by Engern who occupied Kulen, but a while ago, a Japanese army of several thousand men suddenly came from the east, and they attacked Kulen, and the defense line set up by Enggen was so weak that after the artillery bombardment was prepared, it was broken through with just one charge.

The Cossacks of Engean's division were defeated and fled in all directions, but he was not reconciled, regrouped his subordinates, and after gathering a part of the Mongols, he attacked Kulen again, but the rabble led by him was no match for the well-trained Japanese army, and the result was defeated without suspense, however, this time the Japanese army did not give him time to escape safely, and the Japanese army poured out of the city of Kulen and drove Engean's troops eastward, and the result was that Wu Xiaoliang and Li Zhenqing had just arrived at the Kent Mountain Pass.

After a few days of repair, the fatigue brought by the Suidong army in the grassland for days disappeared, just waiting for the materials and ammunition to arrive, they started a general attack on Kulun, and this kind of situation was permeated everywhere in the Suidong army, but in the headquarters, Wu Xiaoliang and Li Zhenqing's judgment on the shape shì was not optimistic, first, if you want to attack Kulun, you must cross Kent Mountain, and Kent Mountain Pass is the only passage that stretches for hundreds of miles, and the Japanese army has built fortifications on the high ground in the mountain pass, and the terrain inside is dangerous and difficult to defend and difficult to attack.

Therefore, taking the Kent Pass was the first difficulty facing the Suidong army, and the second difficulty was that, according to the recent news from Malinovsky's side, General Genan of the Czech Legion had sent a brigade of infantry south to Kulen, and these people were not good at coming, and they were definitely friends and foes, and if they colluded with the Japanese, they would seriously increase the pressure on the Suidong army.

In order to make up for the problem of insufficient troops, he ordered Li Zhenqing to lead the first mixed brigade of Suidong, which had just been formed, to go to Outer Mongolia to make peace with it.

And, what makes Wu Xiaoliang more worried is the whereabouts of Xu Shuzheng, now Kulun is in front of him, but there is no news of him, just like a stone sinking into the sea, neither the Republic of China nor the Beiyang government can afford to lose the result of losing a 6th Army commander, so whether he is killed or captured, it is a terrible ending, but as time passes, Wu Xiaoliang's heart is sinking every day, this Chief Xu, who is not very famous in history, has the grace of knowing him, in personal feelings, He didn't want those two possibilities to be born the last thing he wanted.

But recently, there are always businessmen who come to the headquarters to report the news of Xu Shuzheng's body, after several investigations, it is now a fake scene, and the body is not Xu Shuzheng's body.

"Brother Li, what do you think of these strange things."

"Recently, there have been frequent forgeries at the scene of Chief Xu's body, and it seems that someone is deliberately attacking our military morale."

Li Zhenqing's views are the same as Wu Xiaoliang's, and he also thinks that it is very strange, and it is likely that someone deliberately made it out to disturb the morale of the army, and if the Suidong Army was careless and misidentified the corpse, it would definitely cause an irreparable blow to the Beiyang Government and the Suidong Army, but fortunately, several conspiracies were discovered.

Li Zhenqing suddenly remembered one thing, recently there was a caravan from Shanxi whose whereabouts were uncertain, and the detectives reported several times that their traces had appeared in Kent Mountain, but there was no evidence of their specific movements, and he thought of several fake scenes of Xu Shuzheng's murder near Kent Mountain, and he had an intuition that this was not just a coincidence.

"Also, some people in the Jin Merchants have been very restless recently, so should we take measures."

Wu Xiaoliang listened to Li Zhenqing's words, and suddenly turned to the Jin merchants, knowing that his eldest brother would never be untargeted.

"Is there evidence that they were involved in these events?"

Li Zhenqing did not nod or shake his head, but replied noncommittally.

"Lately the Scouts have been spotting them in the vicinity of Mount Kent, and almost all of them are the same caravan."

"If you want to punish these black sheep, you must grasp the evidence, and it is difficult to convince the public by relying on these conjectures and speculations."

He thought for a moment, then sighed again, and continued:

"From today onwards, send military police to conduct reconnaissance in makeup, and we must wipe out this group of traitors."

If the inference of the falsification of the scene is true, since these businessmen dare to cooperate with the enemy, then the affairs of the enemy must also be done, which is much more severe than the consequences caused by merely collaborating with the enemy, and if this is the case, his plan will really be greatly discounted.
