207th Middle Road War VIII Japanese calculations

On this night, Wu Peifu was busy rescuing the hostages and incorporating the Red Brigade Northeast Revolutionary Army. Inside the headquarters of the 12th Division of the Japanese Army in Chita, it was also brightly lit.

The 12th Division landed at Vladivostok in August 1918 and was the main force of the Japanese Vladivostok Dispatch Army. After landing in Vladivostok, the division spread out along the Trans-Siberian Railway, from Vladivostok all the way to Chita, where the troops were scattered along the railway line of more than 2,000 kilometers to fight against the Red Army's guerrillas, and the division headquarters was placed in Chita, which was controlled by Semenov. In fact, it is no longer the Czechoslovak Legion that supports Semenov's hegemony in the post-Baikal region, but Japanese imperialism!

In the night, three or two people quietly arrived at the headquarters of the 8th Japanese-style calculation regiment of the 12th Division of the 207th Middle East Road War in a carriage with the Japanese Army mark. All the way to a very secret office in the headquarters. When I opened the office door, I saw the new commander of the Vladivostok Dispatch Army, Lieutenant General Yoshiichi Tanaka, sitting upright behind his desk, his head bowed, studying a military map. When he heard the door open, he didn't look up.

There were three people who came, two of whom were Russians, and it was Horvat, who had been driven out of Harbin by Wu Peifu, and Semenov, the master of the Trans-Baikal Provisional Government. The other person is a Japanese army chief with a trademark French beard, and he is the famous Russian Sadao Araki in the Japanese Army.

All three bowed to Tanaka, then found a chair across from his desk and sat down. Tanaka's adjutant who was guarding the office door quietly closed the office door.

Yoshiichi Tanaka raised his head and looked at the three visitors in front of him. Smiled: "General Semyonov, General Horvat, why are your faces so ugly?" ”

Yoshiichi Tanaka once studied in Russia, and he was also a Russian expert, and he was able to speak Russian very fluently, so he used Russian to talk to two Russians.

Semenov and Horvat glanced at each other, and the calculations of the 207th Middle East Road War and the eight Japanese found that each other's faces were pale. The commander of the Japanese intervention army actually quietly went from Vladivostok to Chita at this time. It can't seem like a coincidence, right?

Semenov smiled reluctantly: "Your Excellency Tanaka, why don't you notify me when you come from Vladivostok, I can arrange a reception." ”

Horvat hesitated. He also chimed in: "Your Excellency Commander, I think you must already know what happened in Harbin a few days ago, right?" This behavior of the Chinese seriously harms the common interests of the great powers in China****??The Japanese side should also oppose it, right? ”

As soon as he spoke, Tanaka Yoshiichi sneered: "In fact, our Great Japanese Empire supports the Chinese in recovering the Eastern Railway!" Because they have already agreed to mortgage the Middle Eastern Railway to Japan. In exchange for a loan of 100 million yen! ”

Horvat jumped up and stared at Tanaka fiercely: "On behalf of the Provisional Government of the Russian Republic, I make the strongest protest against this behavior of yours!" ”

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Semenov beside him in a loud voice: "General Horvat! Please don't be so rude in front of His Excellency Tanaka! Commander Tanaka is a friend of our Russia! Saying that, he smiled and said to Tanaka: "Your Excellency, we can sell the Eastern Railway, as well as the Russian concessions in Tianjin and Harbin to the Japanese Empire, for only 100 million yen!" ”

"Semenov, you ****??" Horvat looked at Semenov angrily, and just wanted to reprimand, but Sadao Araki on the side interjected with a smile: "Except for the Tianjin Russian Concession, the Middle East Road and the Harbin Russian Concession are not in your hands now. How can you sell what doesn't belong to you to the Japanese Empire? ”

"Let's take it back!" Semenov patted his chest and said: "I have 30,000 of the most elite troops in my hands, and 20,000 in Vladivostok and Khabarovsk. As long as the Japanese side supports it, in less than a month, we will be able to occupy the whole of North Manchuria! Then we'll be able to fulfill the deal! ”

"Occupy, occupy, occupy the whole of North Manchuria!" Horvat gasped and stared at Semenov: "Grigory? Mikhainovich (Semyonov). Are you crazy? Do you think it's still 1914? Now that the tsar is gone, Russia is fighting a civil war, and we can't make such a big deal out of it! ”

Semenov sneered and said: "Dear Dimitri? Leonidevich (Horvat), I know that Russia is fighting a civil war, but so what? Isn't China also fighting a civil war? Not a single China in a civil war is not afraid to make things bigger, so what are we Russia afraid of! We could have occupied North Manchuria first. And then go to negotiate with the Chinese government in Beijing****?? They will pay dearly for their recklessness! ”

Horvat didn't say anything more, instead setting his sights on Yoshiichi Tanaka. Tanaka smiled and nodded: "I might as well talk to the two of you directly, in fact, we in Japan have always hoped that something can happen in Manchuria. The lease period of the Kwantung and South Manchurian railways is not long, and if there is nothing left, they Chinese will never extend it! So if you let it go, as long as you don't infringe on the Empire's sphere of influence in South Manchuria, the Empire will be happy to see it. ”

Horvat nodded silently, Tanaka's words were a bit convincing, and their Japanese policy in China was to constantly create contradictions, so that China would always be in turmoil and chaos. Thinking of this, he no longer doubted anything, and together with Semenov, he bowed slightly to Tanaka and was about to leave. Yoshiichi Tanaka also stood up with a smile, politely opened the door to the two Russian guests, and sent them out.

Outside the Russian-style building of the headquarters, Tanaka Yoshiichi watched the carriage of the Russians leave with his hands behind his back, and asked Araki Sadao next to him in a low voice: "Araki-kun, what do you think of these two people?" ”

Sadao Araki smiled lightly: "Horvath is a completely outdated figure, not worth mentioning. Although Semyonov was a lawless bandit (in fact, he was from the regular Russian army), he was one of the few Russians who could cooperate with the Japanese Empire. Humble feelings. It would be very beneficial to the empire if he could be made the leader of the Far Eastern Republic! ”

Yoshiichi Tanaka sighed and continued to ask, "Does he deserve to be the leader of the Far Eastern Republic?" ”

"Give it a try." Sadao Araki suddenly frowned: "Your Excellency Commander, I think you also know that in this territory of the Russian Far East, the Tatars are very numerous, and they are the natives here. ”

Tanaka nodded. smiled: "I know, isn't it a Mongolian?" This is the territory of the Mongols. ”

Sadao Araki frowned and reminded: "So in order for Semenov to rule the Far East, it is necessary to let him have the support of the Mongols." And the leader of the Mongols is the living Buddha named Jebtsundamba ****??"

"What's wrong?" Tanaka saw that Araki's face was a little strange, so he asked.

Araki sighed softly: "This Jebtsundamba was assassinated by the Red Brigade not long ago!" Now the new living Buddha has not yet been chosen, and the Mongols in the Far East and Mongolia are leaderless. No one can come out and call on them to cooperate with Semenov! ”

Tanaka frowned slightly and muttered, "The Red Brigade is really a trouble!" ”

(Note: Historically, this Semenov once cooperated with Jebtsundamba and established a "Great Mongolian State" with the support of the Japanese.) οΌ‰

****?

And on the same night, Chang Ruiqing also walked out of his headquarters office in Guilin. After a day's work, Rao is Chang Ruiqing's body bones also felt back pain, and the psychological fatigue was a little worse than the physical exhaustion.

During this time, the local snakes in Guangxi finally bowed their heads under Chang Ruiqing's soft and hard measures, and Lu Rongting went to the field with electricity and ran to Vietnam. Tan Haoming, Ma Ji, and Shen Hongying all accepted the reorganization of the National Revolutionary Army. He became the commander and division commander of the newly formed First Army, and now he is ordered by the Military Committee to lead his subordinates to Guangdong. The defense of Guangxi was temporarily taken over by the Second Army under the command of Bai Chongxi. The Third Army commanded by Deng Keng was ordered to attack Guizhou, and has now gone north. There is also a Fourth Army that changed to Zhu Peide (Xu Tingyao and Zhu Peide were transferred) to be the commander and went to fight Zhu Peide's hometown Yunnan. Chang Ruiqing is based in Guilin. Take charge of the big picture.

He walked in the yard with his hands behind his back and frowned, accompanied only by two women, Wang Ruonan and Zhen Xiaoru. They rushed to Guilin's "Western Expeditionary Army Headquarters" to meet Chang Ruiqing after the situation in Guangxi was settled. Since our Chang Da warlord ended his virgin career in this time and space, it is unlikely that he will be able to leave women, and these two women are still Chang Ruiqing's important helpers in his career.

That Lori little wife Wang Ruonan has already exposed a very strong desire for power, and she likes to tell right and wrong, and she sees that there are no outsiders around. began to report to Chang Ruiqing.

β€œ****?? Yaoru, you can't put all your thoughts on the war in the southwest, and you must always pay attention to Guangzhou! Your deputy Jiang Jshi has been very active during this time, the War Department, the General Staff, and the Whampoa Military Academy seem to have become his territory, and he has to ask about everything! And Mr. Sun seems to trust him very much, and he is almost obedient to him?

According to the report of the inside line we arranged at Jiang Jshi's side, he planned to use aid to Russia as a pretext for the Northern Expedition. Adapt your Western Expeditionary Army into the First Route Army of the Anti-Russian Army, and appoint Xu Ru as the commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army of the Anti-Russian Army, and concurrently serve as the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army of the Anti-Russian Army****?? Prepare to go north in three ways to 'resist Russia'! If you want to go all the way to Gansu, Shaanxi and Xinjiang, Xu Ruwei will take the middle road, hit the two lakes and then go north along the Jinghan Railway, and he will take the road of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shandong. ”

Chang Ruiqing glanced back at the little wife with a gloomy face, uh, the little beauty has grown up a little now, and she is about to become a big beauty, and her figure is fuller. It's just that this beauty's mind can't be put at home and on the bed? He smiled faintly: "Ruonan, how do you think I should deal with this Jiang J Shi?" ”

Wang Ruonan's pretty face suddenly slipped a trace of ruthlessness, and he glanced at Zhen Xiaoru beside him: "Yaoru, according to my meaning, I still don't do it, let Sister Xiaoru take action to solve him!" ”

Listening to his wife's JianyΓ¬, Chang Ruiqing felt a chill down his spine, he didn't expect this woman to be a ruthless character! The corners of his mouth twitched. smiled bitterly: "This can't be done!" Ruonan, do you think Jiang Jshi is fighting alone? Standing behind him is Sun Yat-sen! If we get rid of him, our cooperation with Sun Yat-sen will come to an end! ”

Wang Ruonan flattened his mouth and snorted softly: "Then what should I do?" Do you just let the surnamed Jiang take away your power? ”

Chang Ruiqing snorted coldly, turned his head and said to Zhen Xiaoru: "You go and pack your bags, I want to go back to Guangzhou!" ”

Wang Ruonan's big eyes flashed: "Yes! Go back to Guangzhou and have a good fight with the surname Jiang! ”

Chang Ruiqing glared at her: "What a fight!" A national war against Russia is about to start! Now is the time to unite! ”

****?

"Mr. Sun. Do you think this Sino-Japanese alliance is not feasible? Inu Yangyi's old face full of smiles approached Sun Yat-sen and asked with a smile.

This Japanese politician, who was known as the "ghost fox," did not immediately return to Japan after he completed negotiations with the Soviet Russian envoy Yue Fei. Instead, he continued to stay in Guangzhou, and also had close contacts with Sun Yat-sen, Hu Hanmin, Chiang J-shi, and other Kuomintang figures in the Nationalist government.

By the way, that Comrade Yue Fei has not returned to Russia yet. also stayed in Guangzhou, but the people who came and went were high-ranking officials on the GCD side of the Nationalist Government!

And tonight, Inuyang Yi suddenly missed the night and brought a Sino-Japanese alliance plan to oppose Soviet Russia! According to this plan, the Japanese government will provide a large amount of weapons and equipment to the Nationalist government led by Sun Yat-sen, send military advisers to help train and command the army, and fully support the Northern Expedition of the National Revolutionary Army to overthrow the Beiyang government and unify China! After the Nationalist Government completes the great cause of reunification, what needs to be repaid to Japan is: 1. Taking care of Japan's special rights and interests in China; 2. Agree to extend the lease period of the Kwantung Prefecture and South Manchurian Railway to 99 years; 3. Agree to transfer Germany's interests in Shandong to Japan; 4. Agree to lease the China Eastern Railway to Japan; 5. An alliance between China and Japan to jointly oppose Soviet Russia.

Moreover, the Japanese side also knew that four of the above five points were extremely difficult for Sun Yat-sen to accept, so they also proposed a compromise solution. Japan would not ask the Nationalist Government to sign these traitorous treaties directly. They will force the Beiyang government to sign these treaties, and the Nationalist government only needs to continue to abide by them after replacing the Beiyang government! Continuing to abide by the treaties left over from the previous government has been the norm in countries around the world during regime change, and Japan's demands seem to be excessive.

However, Sun Yat-sen's reaction to this covenant was a long silence, until Inuyang Yi repeatedly opened his mouth to urge. He hesitated and said, "Mr. Inukai, these requirements made by your country ****??" It's not that we can't think about it, it's just that I don't understand one thing, and the Beiyang government is not a fool, how could they sign such a treaty? Those treaties will make them a target for the whole nation to denounce and oppose! ”

But the dog Yangyi stroked his beard and said to Sun Yat-sen with a smile: "Mr. Sun." These problems are not what you and I need to worry about, how can the Beiyang government really stick to their bottom line as the central government of China, and not sign these treaties that betray China's interests, it will not hurt your national government, right? Japan will not force your national government to sign it, am I right? ”

Sun Yat-sen took a deep breath, his eyebrows tightly twisted. Although he was not an anti-Japanese faction, he was well aware of the great ambitions of the Japanese and the sinister nature of their conspiracy. Now that they have proposed such an alliance plan, it shows that Japan must have a way to force the Beiyang government to comply!

What they are worried about is that after the fall of the Beiyang government, their own national government will turn around and deny it, right? Perhaps still worried about an alliance between China and Soviet Russia against Japan? They took advantage of the opportunity of the civil war in Soviet Russia to knock the Russians hard! According to the nature of the Russians, after the end of the civil war in the future, there will be no way to find a ghost!

Therefore, the Japanese now want to contact themselves and draw China together to oppose Soviet Russia on the condition of supporting themselves to replace the Beiyang government.

But what can they do to oppress Beiyang? Could it be the Middle East Road incident?

Thinking of this, Sun Yat-sen's face had already shown a smile like a spring breeze, and he smiled and took the hand of the dog Yangyi, looking like he was in his heart.

Sun Wen is grateful for the kindness of the Japanese side. It's just that****?? At present, China is in a period of unanimity with the outside world! After the Middle East Road incident came out, British, American, French and other imperialists have been stepping up their oppression of China! There is also information that Belarus is also mobilizing forces and preparing for a counterattack. Under such circumstances, how can our Nationalist Government be an opponent of the Beiyang Government, which upholds national power?

At present, our Nationalist Government and the National Revolutionary Army are preparing to build a resistance to the Russian army, and they are ready to cross the sea and go north to join this national holy war after the White Russia invades the northeast! I don't think the Japanese side will stop our Nationalist Government from carrying out this unshirkable mission, right? ”

Inukai listened with a smile, nodding his head as he listened, as if he was quite approving. Sun Yat-sen's voice fell, and he said with a smile: "Of course, the Japanese side will not hinder Mr. Sun from resisting Russia, and Japan is also very supportive of resisting Russia, maybe our two countries will fight side by side!" As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the draft of the "Sino-Japanese Alliance" on the table, and said with a smile: "Of course, there is no free lunch in the world, and our Great Japanese Empire also needs to be paid to help China resist Russia. I believe that the Beiyang government is willing to pay a certain amount of remuneration, Sun Yat-sen, is it reasonable for you to say that Japan has helped China resist Russia in such a paid way? ”!!!
