"What is even more worrying is that Qin Yu has more than the 12 beacons that appeared in Beijing today. Last year, in order to capture Jilin, Qin Yu appeared outside Gongzhuling with as many as 20 planes. According to the Empire's intelligence in Mukden, although the number of aircraft owned by the Mukden side is classified as a military secret, through visual observation, several airfields in Mukden have been preliminarily determined, and the number of aircraft in Mukden's possession will not be less than forty. In terms of its bomb load, its striking power and threat far exceeded the heavy firepower possessed by the four divisions of the Empire. If you count the ground forces in Mukden, China, they have indeed become a big problem for the empire to control the northeast of China! ”

Tanaka Yoshiichi had always thought that it was right to control the central part of China and instigate the situation of confrontation between Mukden and the central government, but he did not expect that the current Mukden not only controls the entire northeast, but also grows to the point where it can shake the situation of the entire Republic of China. As for the bombers owned by the Feng army, they made the Japanese army helpless. Aoki Yamada's meaning is obvious, if a conflict breaks out between the Imperial Army and the Feng army, it will also face a huge threat from the Feng army in the air.

Although the plane can not be used in the rainy day, but the rainy day in the northeast is not too much, compared with the airplane, even if the Japanese army has the convenience of railway transportation, but the inconvenience of the artillery movement is an indisputable fact, in the battle between the two armies, once the Japanese artillery group is exposed. In an instant, it will be devastated by the bomber group of the Northeast Army. Once the cover of artillery fire is lost, the troops that have landed on the surface of Mukden will face the dual fire of the Northeast Army from the air and the ground, which will be a disaster for the Japanese army.

"The power of the Northeast Army's fleet is indeed unexpected." Yoshiichi Tanaka also attaches unprecedented importance to the Northeast, and he has seen with his own eyes the bombing of Beijing today, 12 warplanes. In a very short period of time, more than 1,000 shells were fired at the enemy, which was difficult for even the Japanese army to bear.

"If Shina Mukden can develop such an advanced bomber, can't the empire make an even better one?" Lin Quanzhu was a little puzzled, in his opinion, no matter how strong Mukden was. It is also absolutely not comparable to the whole of Japan. But in front of him, even Aoki Yamada, who has always been arrogant, feels extremely jealous of Fengjun, Tanaka Yoshiichi also looks helpless, and Lin Quanzhu doesn't mention how awkward he feels in his heart.

"Qin Yu is a very far-sighted person, intelligence shows that now Fengtian Province alone sends more than 400 students to the United States every year, and a large number of elite students sent abroad by China in the past are also mostly attracted by Fengtian, and now they have established Fengtian University of Technology, which can be comparable to the first-class universities of the empire. Qin Yu and Fengtian merchants are also building a larger-scale private university. The aviation talents who graduated from the United States are all included in Mukden. Become a member of the Mukden Aircraft Factory before the Empire has a practical war-ready aircraft. Mukden already has a fleet of Condor bombers purchased from the United States. And the master's and graduate students of aviation engineering who graduated from various universities in the United States are excellent talents who can be compared with the imperial elite. It can be said that Qin Yu spared no effort in the development of flying machines, and his layout of flying machines was at least three years earlier than that of the empire. ”

The momentum of the Northeast is like the rising sun in the east, and Tanaka Yoshiichi, who has long been aware of the threat of the Northeast, has deeply studied Qin Yu, and for everything that happens in the Northeast, Tanaka Yoshiichi asked himself that there are few people in Japan who know more than him. Headquarters of the General Staff of Japan. A considerable number of his colleagues call him a China expert.

"Well, the American side of Eagle Airlines has almost a monopoly on aircraft manufacturing in North America. No airline is the size of the airline. The U.S. military's fighters and bombers all come from the Flying Eagle Company, and the Condor 2 bomber manufactured by the Flying Eagle Company, as well as the Storm bomber, are also the most advanced aircraft in the world. However, the Flying Eagle Company has a very strict control over the technique, and the Imperial side has negotiated with it several times. None of them can be authorized by their production licenses, as well as other technical transfers. The belligerent powers of the West did not have time to take care of the situation in the Far East at this time, and at this time it was impossible for the Empire to join the Central Powers, and the Entente was already victorious, and I am afraid that they would be happy to see the Empire's plans to expand its influence in the Far East blocked. For the development of aircraft. The empire is really on its own at this time. ”

Aoki Yamada was also very clear about the predicament of the development of Japanese aircraft at this time. "The empire has been developing aircraft for a long time, and the time to have aircraft is no later than that of Mukden, but those old stubborns have not paid enough attention to the development of aircraft, resulting in the empire now not having a type of aircraft that can confront the beacon fire, and the Kwantung Army division is at an unprecedented disadvantage in Mukden, China, and it is their incompetence that has led to the current situation."

Speaking of some old antiques in the base camp, they have accumulated enough power since the Meiji Restoration to control the current Japanese political scene, but their old vision is also destined to have a certain degree of rejection of new affairs.

"It doesn't work to say this now, the unprecedented strength shown by Fengtian has made the future situation of China begin to become clear, and the future Fengtian will have a lot of say in the center of China, and Duan Qirui's strength on the side of China is too weak, I am afraid that he may not be able to compete with it. Future empires will also have to adjust their China strategy. Lin didn't want to focus on who was responsible.

"How's the situation on Duan Qirui's side?" Yoshiichi Tanaka looked at Aoki Yamada.

He temporarily co-opted a mixed brigade and the 8th Division of the Central Branch, but in terms of military strength, it was still far from the Feng army, and as for the technical and technical arms, it was even worse. What's more, the army in Qin Yu's hands is all brought out by himself, and the amount of power controlled by Duan Qirui is only temporary. With Qin Yu's emerging vision, if he is allowed to manipulate the central branch in secret, the threat to the empire is not inferior to Yuan Shikai. Aoki Yamada concluded, "This must be stopped." ”

"At the beginning, Yuan Shikai relied on the six towns of Beiyang to obtain the position of the president of China, and at this time, although Qin Yu's strength was not as strong as Yuan Shikai at that time, it was not much worse. It really can't be allowed to grow any further. ”

Tanaka Yi nodded, Yuan Shikai's Beiyang Six Towns was an absolutely strong force in the late Qing Dynasty, and the equipment of other local troops was too far from it, and Yuan Shikai, who had re-emerged from the mountain, controlled Zhili. Hebei and other five provinces territory. At this time, Qin Yu had just controlled the Northeast in his hands, although the strength was especially superior to that of the Beiyang Six Towns period, but there was also the Beiyang Group in the Guannai, if it was combined, in addition to the lack of aircraft, the other comprehensive strength would still surpass Qin Yu's Northeast Army. That's why Yoshiichi Tanaka came to such a conclusion.

"Not bad. However, at the moment, I am afraid that the only thing that can confront Qin Yu is the entire Beiyang Group combined, and the only people who have great prestige in the Beiyang Group are Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang in Nanjing. Among them, Duan Qirui is the closest to the empire, and it seems that the empire has to make several preparations to use Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang to curb Qin Shou's expansion of influence in the China Pass. ”

Lin Quanzhu was also very clear about the situation in the Republic of China at this time. However, a few people had always thought that although Qin Yu was strong, he was still in a disadvantageous position compared to the Central Committee of the Republic of China, but they didn't expect that it had only been more than a year. Qin Yu swept through Jilin and Heilongjiang with lightning speed. Hiding a hole card like Beacon Fire again, he already has the potential to swallow the world, and Duan Qirui, who was originally in a strong position, was far weaker than Qin Yu at this time.

"Well, Duan Qirui is still one of the most influential figures in the Beiyang Group, as long as he is given a certain platform, he still has a chance to confront Qin Yu." Aoki Yamada nodded. However, Qin Yu's bombing of Beijing this time made Duan Qirui suffer a lot of setbacks. Afterwards, Duan Qirui asked me whether the empire had the same bomber, and I couldn't even answer him. ”

Qin Yu's move was indeed ruthless enough, not only knocking Zhang Xun's morale to a low point. Even Duan Qirui was affected. "The empire must increase its support for Duan Qirui." ”

"Although it is not as large as Fengtiangong. However, the atmosphere of Peiyang University to the top also makes people feel that there is still hope for the Republic of China. Qin Yu was dressed in a black regular clothes, a black green horse jacket, big scalp shoes, and a black round hat on his head, which looked no different from that of an ordinary traditional young man. Miyabota and other guards also followed in civilian clothes.

"Yu Shuai is only twenty-seven now. It's not a few years older than these students. Zhao Tianlin, president of Peiyang University, couldn't help laughing.

"The mentality is a lot older, if it weren't for some troubles, it would be good to go to the United States, the West, and look around." Qin Yu said with a smile. In his previous life, he was planted in tourism, but in this life, this character can't be changed, this should be the so-called easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change.

"If Yushuai goes to travel all over the world, who will clean up the mess in front of him." Wang Yuhai said.

"The times create heroes, and when the nation is in danger, there are always some people who will stand on the cusp of the wind and be the tide makers." Qin Yu shook his head and smiled, looking at the somewhat old school buildings in the distance, one or two houses even had cracks in the walls, and they were supported by wooden canes next to them. "Since the Hongxian Empire, the funding of various universities has not been guaranteed, and I am afraid that the life of Peiyang University is not easy now."

"It's not just a bad feeling, all the previous funds have stopped, the situation at Tsinghua School is a little better, there is Gengzi compensation as a subsidy, Peking University, Beiyang University are about to be uncovered, and many teachers' salaries have not been received for four or five months. The conditions at Fengtian University of Technology are so good, almost all the better teachers have been poached. ”

People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. As a teacher, you do it wherever you are, and the conditions at Fengtian University of Technology are excellent, and everything is guaranteed. Right now in Nankai, Peking University has not had a salary for several months, and the teachers are also human beings, and they also eat whole grains and grains, and they also have to support their families. The threshold for teachers at Fengtian University of Technology is quite high. However, due to the implementation of compulsory education in Fengtian primary school, the establishment of various normal schools, and other schools, there is still a large gap in the number of teachers. At present, many teachers in Kannai would rather go to Fengtian to teach elementary school students than stay in Kannai to become university teachers.

"Education is the foundation of a country, and the impact of the two turmoil on education in the Kannai is indeed not small." Qin Yu nodded and sighed in his heart, the country was in turmoil, and these people who were engaged in culture and skills were also suffering.

"This bombing of Beijing is tantamount to an earth-shattering shock, and Yu Shuai has won the battle against Beijing?" Zhao Tianlin looked forward to the authenticity.

"There is no way out for Zhang Xun's restoration, and within ten days, Duan Hefei's army and I will definitely be able to attack the city of Beijing. At present, the army is in Tianjin. More often than not, they hope that there will be peaceful means to resolve the Zhang Xun issue. Qin Yu said, "In this way, the funding problem of several universities will be properly solved after the Northeast Army enters Beijing, so that the teachers can hold on for a few more days." Salaries that were previously lacking were paid in one go. ”

"Okay, Yu Shuai is a promise, and Yu Shuai has opened this mouth. The problem will definitely be solved. Zhao Tianlin was overjoyed when he heard this, since Qin Yu dared to release this, he was naturally sure, and if he changed to another person, Zhao Tianlin might not be so gullible.

"Principal Zhao doesn't need to squeeze me like this, if I say it, it will naturally be counted." Qin Yu smiled when he heard this, and Qin Yu didn't care much about Zhao Tianlin's careful thoughts. After driving out Zhang Xun, the problem of education funding is not big. No matter how tight the central government's finances are, if they are tighter in other aspects, one or two million can always be squeezed out. The 4 million yuan paid to the Qing family every year alone made it impossible for the Qing family to enjoy such favorable conditions again. Just squeeze out a little bit and you're good to go.

"Section Chief Song, how have you considered my proposal?" Qin Yu asked Song Shishan next to Zhao Tianlin.

"Thanks to Yu Shuai's attention, he is willing to serve Yu Shuai." Song Shishan finally made a decision. He was sent to Japan as a naval student for the first time, and he stayed in the central government although his future was uncertain. But after all, there is a rush. Qin Yu invited him to go to the Northeast to develop, but there was not even a decent warship in the Northeast. Song Shishan was also worried for many days, but when he thought of the current strength of the Northeast, if he formed a navy, there would really be a certain amount of space, and he would rather be the head of a chicken than a phoenix. Staying in the center, I don't know when I will come out, and it's not bad to go to the northeast to see the situation.

"Ha Luha, well, although there are no warships in the Northeast now. However, there will always be in the future, the warships that the Republic of China now has are too old to be useful at all, and it only makes sense to engage in warships that can compete with the great powers. The Northeast side already has most of the skills for building new small warships, but naval warfare is changing with each passing day, and in the European naval war, the problems of some previous warships have been exposed, and the Northeast intends to start with destroyers and submarines, which have small investment and quick results. The Admiralty on the central side sent some people to Europe to watch the model naval battle, and I heard that you have a close relationship with the people over there. You might as well put a little heart into it. By the end of next year, Mukden will start construction of its own new warships. The first warship was temporarily positioned on the destroyer, and if possible, the submarine formation was also launched at the same time. ”

Song Shishan nodded, "The submarine tactic is to defeat the strong with the weak, and to attack the sea transportation of the hostile country through constant attacks, and to sneak attack the enemy's large warships and logistics fleets. Germany used this trick to deal with Britain very effectively, but it was a pity that it annoyed the United States, and the gains outweighed the losses. The Japanese Navy is far stronger than the Republic of China, and the Republic of China may not have the possibility of catching up with and surpassing the Japanese Navy for more than 10 or 20 years. ”

Since Qin Yu said that it is possible to build a new destroyer in Fengtian, Song Shishan has a conservative attitude, since Qin Yu said that it is possible, there should be a certain possibility, but Song Shishan is not too convinced, after all, with the ship-building skills and experience of the Republic of China, it is okay to build one or two small gunboats, and it is also possible to build civilian merchant ships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons, but when it comes to the technology of building warships, compared with foreigners, it is not a little backward.

"Dashuai, there are a lot of consuls from the command and want to have an interview with Dashuai." A soldier outside came over and said.

"Well, I'll go over." Qin Yu nodded, and then said to Zhao Tianlin and the others, "I originally planned to go around Beiyang University a few more times, but there is such a big thing in Beijing, and the great powers must not be able to live in peace, so I will deal with the affairs over there first." ”

"Yu Shuai is busy, welcome to come to Peiyang University as a guest in the future." Zhao Tianlin said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll definitely come to Peiyang University again when I have time." Qin Yu waved his hand and left straight under the escort of Gong Baotian and others.

"The one who supervised the army in various provinces, governed the localities, developed education, rectified military discipline, and grew the morale of the Republic of China was none other than Yushuai. Maybe Beijing will really change in the future because of the arrival of Yu Shuai. Looking at the background of Qin Yu's departure, Zhao Tianlin said expectantly. As soon as the beacon bomber came out, even the great powers were all shocked, originally Fengjun was known as the first strong army in foreign countries, but at this time the three eastern provinces have been integrated, and some people have begun to crown the Northeast Army as the first strong army in the Republic of China.

"Yes, Yu Shuai's achievements in Fengtian are enough to make all the people in power in the Republic of China ashamed." Song Shishan also said with emotion, "Yu Shuai has always been unpretentious to the Japanese, but Japan is helpless against Yu Shuai, the Feng army has grown from a patrol old army to today's Northeast Army, has firmly occupied the leading power in the Northeast, even the Japanese army can not shake its position, the crisis on the Northeast Border, now has been greatly improved, given time, with Yu Shuai's style of acting, I am afraid that sooner or later the concession and other places will be recovered." ”

"I'm really looking forward to that day."

"Your Excellency General, your army's bombing of Beijing City is really incredible, can the bomb load of the Beacon bomber produced by Fengtian really reach 2 tons, can you let me actually see the majesty of the Beacon bomber?" When the British consul in Tianjin, Hudmer, saw Qin Yu and first got up enthusiastically and asked.

"Yes, with such a large bomb load and a flight speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour, my country can't wait to see the style of the Beacon bomber." The U.S. military attaché was also anxious, and the Condor 2 they had purchased from the Flying Eagle Company was slightly inferior to the Beacon.

"Of course, except for a few countries that are not very friendly with me, other countries can see the majesty of the Beacon Fire, and I will order the Fengtian side to hold an air show to display the Beacon bombers, and those who are interested can sign up at that time, and the Fengtian side will accept some applications as appropriate." Take this opportunity to set up a shelf for the Fengtian Air Show, and with the increase of various aircraft in the future, it will not be in vain if it can become the most influential air show in the world in a few decades.

"General Qin has already shown off the muscles of the Northeast Army, and it can be predicted that General Qin's entry into Beijing is irreversible, I wonder what General Qin thinks of the political situation in Beijing after entering Beijing?" The U.S. consul asked.

"Naturally, it is necessary to restore the previous administrative organs of the Republic of China, restore the National Assembly, establish the new functions of the Presidential Office and the State Council, and avoid the recurrence of military politics and government-court disputes. A country must eventually return to the track of order. ”

In addition to wanting to find out the situation of the Beacon bomber, these consuls came more to clarify Qin Yu's attitude towards the political situation in Beijing after entering Beijing. After a series of previous events, these powers also began to understand that whether the rulers of the Republic of China could govern smoothly was based on the support of the army. And Qin Yu has the most powerful army in the Republic of China, which will play an irreplaceable role in the influence of the Central Committee of the Republic of China. (To be continued......)
