Chapter 147: Huang Cheng's Ambition
The suicide of the deputy staff officer of the 18th Army shocked Jiang Yiwu, Han Ming and others, no one would have thought that such a thing would happen, but the death of the deputy staff officer was equivalent to putting the responsibility on himself. Jiang Yiwu and others hurriedly reported the matter here, a deputy staff officer of the army rebelled, this is the first time the empire has appeared, the Japanese army has reached into the imperial army, who knows if there are other people who have been bought by Fusang?
The small news soon reached Qin Yu's hands, Qin Yu was very angry in his heart, and immediately asked the intelligence department and the shadow to investigate, and the result from the intelligence department was that this staff officer colluded with Zhao Xiaoyun, and finally leaked the battle plan of the Eighteenth Army under the threat of Zhao Xiaoyun, and committed suicide after the conscience could not be resisted. However, the shadow came up with sufficient information, the staff officer and a certain marquis are distant relatives, the staff officer's guard said that the staff officer had received a telegram from China before his death, and it was impossible to determine who it was, and the shadow guessed that this staff officer was just a scapegoat.
"Your Majesty, there was news from Marquis Chen's side just now, the shadow successfully persuaded the telegraph operator of the Marquis's Mansion there and obtained this telegram, Ning took a look at it, the authenticity of the telegram needs to be further confirmed." Qin Hai handed over a telegram.
Qin Yu was very disappointed after reading it, and he couldn't imagine that Chen Kai was very likely to be the maker of the whole thing, and his henchmen were actually making a stumbling block for himself, and he also led to the consequences of these strict zhòng.
"Now we have enough evidence to prove that the person behind the last leak to Fusang was the Marquis Huang stationed in the area of Nanhai Province, and his purpose is not clear. This time the incident was also Marquis Huang bewitching Marquis Chen behind his back, and the news just came that three more major generals in the military headquarters of the imperial capital committed suicide, pushing all the things in the Anda region onto himself. ”
"Bastard, is this an attempt to rebel? Come on, let Marquis Chen come here immediately, and say that I have an emergency meeting to be held! Qin Yu called in a personal guard and asked him to summon Chen Kai in.
"Your Majesty, the affairs of Nanhai Province are definitely not so simple, our people have found a lot of Fusang spies there, and people from Britain and France are also secretly conducting secret operations there. There was a problem of strictness in the army, which only listened to the orders of the commander of the military district and flouted the orders of the Empire, and the old guns that should have been destroyed were not destroyed, and the losses reported to the Imperial ordnance preparations every time were also suspected of exaggerating the figures. ”
Qin Yu didn't expect such a big thing to happen in the area of Nanhai Province, he had been busy with the construction of the empire since he saw it, and now he was busy with the war with Fusang and Tsarist Russia, ignoring the things there. The empire is building its own outlet to the sea in the Indian Ocean, and several huge naval military bases are also being built, and if it is unstable, it will affect Qin Yu's layout of the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia, so there must be no loss there.
"Isn't there still Tang Jirao stationed over there, let him secretly investigate what Huang Cheng and the others are going to do, and let him control the army in Yunnan."
Qin Hai shook his head and said: "Tang Jirao is not having a good time there now, he is being excluded everywhere, and the army of the original Southwest Military Region is even more excluded. The contradiction between Tang Jirao and Huang Cheng is not small, Huang Cheng's military position and title are pressing him, and he has been hollowed out in the National Defense Army, only the soldiers of the Southwest Military Region brought out by Marquis Cai before are supporting Tang Jirao, but the strength is not enough to compete with the National Defense Army. ”
"Then let the shadow people contact the officers who have not been assimilated by Huang Cheng, let these officers maintain their loyalty to the empire, the navy stationed in the Indian Ocean must not be transferred back to the mainland, and let Tang Qianming monitor the navy of Britain and France. The forces of the East Indies are at the disposal of the Empire at any time, and the South Sea Province will immediately go there to quell the rebellion as soon as there is any movement. "Qin Yu can't tolerate anyone splitting the empire's territory under his nose, especially those newly opened up.
Qin Yu knew that Britain was very reluctant to colonies such as Nanhai Province that originally belonged to them, and Gaul Duck would not tolerate Annan and other places being surrounded by the empire, which would be very dangerous, so he secretly carried out various actions in the South China Sea region and the Ming and Han regions.
If it can cause a civil war when the empire is fighting with Fusang, it will definitely be able to delay the rise of the empire, and it is not impossible to drag down the empire.
The Chinese Empire, which was mired in a civil war with Susan Tsarist Russia and its civil war, had absolutely no extra energy to devote to production and construction, and the First Five-Year Plan was absolutely at a standstill, and once the empire was stopped, all the efforts it had done before it were in vain.
If there is really a rebellion in the South China Sea, Qin Yu is also confident in judging it, but he is afraid that Britain and France will intervene, and at that time, with the support of India and Annam, it may be a protracted war, and the empire cannot divide too much energy from the war with Fusang, so stability there is very important.
Just when Qin Yu was deep in thought, the guards reported that the Marquis of Chen Kai had arrived, Zhou Yang hid behind the bookshelf with interest, and Qin Yu let Chen Kai in.
"I've seen His Majesty, I don't know what urgent meeting His Majesty has to hold to find his subordinates?" As soon as Chen Kai entered Qin Yu's study, he felt that something was wrong, according to Qin Yu's habits, an emergency meeting would definitely not be without Chen Fu's presence.
"Kaizi, why are you doing this?" Qin Yu's sharp eyes seemed to have seen Chen Kai through, yes.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what you're talking about, what did I do?" Chen Kai was very nervous in his heart, Qin Yu's tone made him very uncomfortable, Kaizi's name Qin Yu hadn't shouted for at least three years, but now he suddenly shouted out, the situation was not good.
In an uproar, a pile of papers was thrown on Chen Kai's body and scattered, Chen Kai was stunned, but Qin Yu said word by word: "What are these, you open your eyes and take a look, don't think you can hide it from me!" ”
After listening to this, Chen Kai hurriedly picked up the paper and looked at it carefully, and after a while, it was as if he had been struck by lightning, and then shouted and said: "Your Majesty, these are all fake, I haven't done these things, this is wronged, Your Majesty must be the master for me!" ”
Qin Yu didn't even look at him and said, "Originally, I thought I had wronged you, and I also criticized Zhou Yang for this, do you think that you can hide from the world by getting a few people out to carry the black pot?" The above things were all collected by Zhou Yang, you think there will be a mistake, you really disappoint me! ”
"Zhou Yang, it's impossible, how could it be him?" Chen Kai's brain is not very good, otherwise he would not have been played around by Huang Cheng and Zhou Yang, and he couldn't hold it back when Qin Yu said this.
"Hmph, idiot, I don't even know if I'm being used as a gunman, do you really think that Huang Cheng is really the same leg as you? What you're doing is full of mistakes, and if you want to really look into it, you can find out quickly. Qin Yu also hated Chen Kai very much.
Chen Kai never thought that Zhou Yang, who had just let himself find someone to carry the black pot, would sell himself backhandedly, according to His Majesty, he was in someone else's calculations from beginning to end.
"陛xià...... Young master, I know that I am wrong, I just want to teach those newcomers a lesson, let them taste a little bitterness, I never thought that such a big thing would happen. The young master has always been very heavy on the surrendered officers and government personnel of Beiyang and its revolutionary army, and more and more power is distributed to these people and constantly weakens the brothers who followed the young master from birth to death, I am unwilling! Chen Kai knelt on the ground and cried and shouted.
"Do I despise the people around me, you know best, if you want to prove that you can do it, you will use fair and honest means to fight for it, what I have always hated is the nest, no matter what the reason, you have been by my side for so many years and still don't know? Now I'll give you a chance, I'll give you a decent retreat, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless, your mistakes are enough to make you die a thousand times! ”
"I beg the young master to be merciful, I don't want to die yet, I will definitely obey the young master's arrangement!" Chen Kai also knew that he had to seize the opportunity at this time, otherwise it would really be over, he knew that Qin Yu could do what he said.
"Your task is very simple, confuse Huang Cheng and the others like no one else, pretend to join them, make them trust you, and then tell me the news. As for how to do it, someone will teach you, you can pack up your mood and go back, don't expose your feet. ”
"Thank you young master for giving me this opportunity, I will definitely do a good job, I hope the young master will not deceive me!" Chen Kai hated Huang Cheng and them at this time, if it weren't for the fact that they were still the marquis of the scenery, they might even be dukes in the future!
Chen Kai left, Qin Hai walked out and asked, "Your Majesty, why do you want to keep him, will something happen?" ”
"You don't understand this, Huang Cheng and they kill two birds with one stone, no matter what Chen Kai ends up with, it will be beneficial to them. The execution of Chen Kai will chill the hearts of the old people, and at the same time, it will also officially put the matter on the table, and then the empire will no longer be an iron plate, so it can only be like this, after all, he is not the mastermind behind the scenes. ”
"By the way, you go to monitor Chen Kai's family, you can't let them leave the imperial capital, send information to Tang Jirao, and let him cooperate with the action!"
"Yes!"
…………
In Nanhai Province, Huang Cheng was very excited when he saw the news coming from the imperial capital, because his purpose had almost been accomplished, as long as he provoked a dispute between the old and the new, he would have a chance to realize his dream.
From the beginning of following Qin Yu to the establishment of the empire, he had no complaints, but Qin Yu always reused those who surrendered and gave them more opportunities for promotion, but he was transferred to the South China Sea region, and he was very angry in his heart when he saw that his military merits rose compared to others, and over time other thoughts sprouted.
Under the instigation and temptation of Britain and France, Huang Cheng had the idea of becoming his own emperor and wanted to establish his own power in the South China Sea region.
In order to eliminate the troops in the South China Sea region who controlled the South China Sea, Huang Cheng encouraged the veterans of the Wehrmacht in the army and the former Beiyang and its revolutionary army soldiers who surrendered to join the Wehrmacht, to exclude Tang Jirao and overthrow Tang Jirao.
In order to create an opportunity, Huang Chengguo resolutely cooperated with the Fuso people and planned the events in the Anda region, but the massacre was beyond his expectations.
