Chapter 449: Guo Songling's Choice

"Quick! Don't let Kan Chaoxi, a traitor, run away, if you dare to betray Fengjun, you will take his head! ”

Ma Zhanshan urged his subordinates to pursue Kan Chaoxi as fast as possible, vowing to capture this guy in his hands. Since Zhang Tinglan launched a counterattack, within an hour, all the original Feng troops surrendered to Zhang Tinglan and became a soldier of the Feng army again.

And they all felt shame and shame, and in order to atone for their sins, they fought exceptionally actively, and Kan Chaoxi's army collapsed. Without Kan Chaoxi's leader, the Beiyang Army led by Jin Yunpeng was directly exposed. was also caught off guard immediately, especially since these Beiyang troops were the first time they had seen armored vehicles and the first time they had encountered aircraft.

The Beiyang Army originally wanted to watch the play, and wanted to watch the Feng army kill each other comfortably, but the situation changed suddenly, in the face of the superior equipment of the Feng army, coupled with the strong morale, these Beiyang Army quickly collapsed, and fled frantically in all directions.

In the entire Beiyang, the combat effectiveness is relatively strong, and it is Wu Peifu's subordinates who can fight tough battles, which has been confirmed in the Battle of Zhiwan, although Jin Yunpeng is Lao Duan's right-hand man, but his ability to lead troops is also very limited.

And as soon as Jin Yunpeng saw that the attack on Shanhaiguan was unsuccessful, he knew that his dream of being the king of the Northeast had been shattered, so it was important to withdraw to Beijing and Tianjin as soon as possible to preserve his strength. Jin Yunpeng ran away first, and the other Beiyang troops did the same, and it may not be possible to fight, but the speed of escape is definitely first-class.

Thirty or forty thousand troops besieged Shanhaiguan, and when they came, they were fierce and invincible, but when they were defeated, they were extremely embarrassed. Kan Chaoxi is even more so, Jin Yunpeng can still return to Lao Duan's subordinates, but he has no way to escape.

The three eastern provinces can't go back, and Lao Duan is not worth taking refuge into. Thinking about it, the only way to do this is to take refuge in the Japanese, maybe these Orientals can still give him a way to live, go into exile, and I don't know if I can return to my hometown in this life.

Kan Chaoxi couldn't care about melancholy, so he could only run away desperately, when a plane suddenly flew in the air, and Kan Chaoxi hurriedly ran to hide in the stone pile on the side of the road.

At this time, a lot of leaflets were thrown from the plane, and when the wind blew, they all blew to Kan Chaoxi's side. His personal guards also picked up quite a few.

As soon as he looked at the words on it, Kan Chaoxi almost fainted to the ground, this time the Feng army had already thrown out a pursuit warrant, as long as Kan Chaoxi was caught, whether he was dead or alive. can get a reward of 1 million.

A million! This is an unprecedented reward, Zhang Tinglan has already hated Kan Chaoxi, a traitor. actually came up with such a sky-high price. After Kan Chaoxi saw it, he only felt that there was cold air coming from the back of his neck, and he hurriedly said to the guards beside him: "Quick, change your clothes to me, and escape with me!" ”

Kan Chaoxi was changing clothes when he suddenly felt the sound of a tree branch breaking behind him. As soon as he hurriedly turned around, he saw a person stabbing a dagger at him viciously, Kan Chaoxi's eyes suddenly widened, revealing an expression of disbelief.

The name of the man who stabbed him was Hong Sheng. is Kan Chaoxi's brother-in-law, and it is precisely because of his kinship that Kan Chaoxi let him serve as his captain of the guard, personally responsible for safety. How do you know that at this time, it was this guy who betrayed him, and Kan Chaoxi's head was blank at that time.

The sharp dagger had already pierced Kan Chaoxi's chest, he subconsciously grabbed the dagger with two hands, and the corners of his mouth trembled and asked: "Weishenme, weishenme, you want to kill me!" ”

"Brother-in-law, I don't want to go to the East with you, your life will be over, it's better to leave your head to me, let me ask for merit and reward, one million is enough for me to live a comfortable life, you can rest assured that I will treat your sister well!"

Hong Sheng showed a hideous sneer on his face, the strength in his hand was getting bigger and bigger, Kan Chaoxi's chest was already red, the knife was more than three inches deep into the flesh, and Kan Chaoxi's liliang was losing rapidly.

"Hong Sheng, you bastard, if you dare to betray me, it won't end well."

"Brother-in-law, I learned everything from you, you can betray Fengjun, why accuse me!"

Kan Chaoxi's facial features were hideous, and the corners of his mouth were already foaming blood, but he still grabbed Hong Sheng's hand tightly, unwilling to relax at all, and the vicious light in his eyes stared at him deadly.

"Murderers will always kill them, and betrayers will betray you sooner or later!"

Syllable! Syllable! Just when Kan Chaoxi and Hong Sheng were entangled, the guard on the side knocked the trigger, and after two shots, Kan Chaoxi and Hong Sheng were hit, and Hong Sheng's head turned into a rotten watermelon in a daze, and he fell directly to the ground.

Kan Chaoxi's back was also penetrated, blood and internal organs kept flowing out, his eyes barely turned, the prophecy was fulfilled too quickly, and Kan Chaoxi couldn't stand the blow, the corners of his mouth moved, and he wanted to say something.

At this time, one of the guards rushed up, the dagger knife had been inserted into his neck, blood gushed out, and the fat body fell to the ground......

By the time Ma Zhanshan chased over, Kan Chaoxi had already died on the spot, and with Kan Chaoxi's death, the situation in front of Shanhaiguan was suddenly reversed, and the Feng army finally won and successfully solved a threat.

"Brigade Commander Ma, Regiment Commander Ding, you immediately gather the army, reorganize as quickly as possible, and we will return to Fengtian."

"Commander-in-chief, Guo Songling's troops are limited, and the army's morale is unstable, we can completely follow the method of dealing with Kan Chaoxi and easily clean him up. It's better to leave some men and horses and continue to pursue the Beiyang Army, they dare to fall into the trap against the Feng Army, and we can't let them have a good time! ”

Ma Zhanshan put forward his own idea, it sounds like there is some truth, it is true that Beiyang has been beaten by Guo Songling before, and now Jin Yunpeng has failed again, and he is pursuing with victory, even if he can't enter Beijing, he can make Beiyang suffer heavy losses, Ding Chao is also very interested in this proposal.

However, Zhang Tinglan still waved his hand: "Everything is mainly to stabilize the three eastern provinces, I feel that after the Japanese know that the rebels in Shanhaiguan are resolved, they will definitely not be able to sit still, and without strong military deterrence, the Japanese will take risks." Remember, from now on, our opponents have become Japanese! ”

Zhang Tinglan is not bad at all, the Japanese have already started to act and successfully assassinated Zhang Zuolin. Japan was immediately divided into two factions, one of which believed that this would damage Sino-Japanese relations, and in particular, that some Chinese military leaders would become jealous of the Japanese and would not dare to cooperate with the Japanese, which was a very dangerous move.

Moreover, the blatant assassination of a country's political leaders will also be condemned internationally and discredit Japan, especially after the Paris Peace Conference, the Shijie situation is still turbulent and has not been completely stabilized. The open and covert struggle between the great powers continued, and the Japanese cabinet was very worried that the assassination of Zhang Zuolin would affect Japan's grand strategy.

However, the other faction, led by the military department, did not see it this way, believing that the Feng army was torn apart because of Zhang Zuolin's death. It was a good time to start and annex the entire three eastern provinces in one fell swoop. For this matter. Japan is in the midst of a fierce quarrel.

The next development of events followed the path expected by the military department, and the Feng army was torn apart and plunged into a civil war, and the voice of the use of force against China became louder and louder.

As the Japanese consul general in Mukden, Akajiri Massuke saw much more clearly than those bureaucrats in the country, not to mention the danger that the Feng army was facing in war. But the shili that Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Zuoxiang held in their hands was too powerful, and once it was fully exerted, none of the rebels could succeed in making the Feng army a long civil war. Japan will have to use its own liliang.

Akajiri Massuke urgently found Guo Songling, and he said with a smile: "Guo Overseer, the empire is willing to support you as the overseer of Fengtian, even if you manage the entire three eastern provinces, and is willing to help as much as possible." ”

Guo Songling's eyes rolled, and then said: "Japan can help Guo, Guo is naturally grateful, I urgently need a large amount of arms and funds now, and it is best to provide some planes for reconnaissance, I wonder if the Japanese side can help?"

"No problem, it's a check for five million yen." Akajiri Massuke delivered a check to Guo Songling.

"The imperial government has always been very generous to friends, I will try my best to provide whatever help General Guo wants, a little money is not a problem at all, as for the arms, it is also as much as it wants, I can now let the Kwantung Army transfer arms from the brigade."

Guo Songling nodded: "The speed must be fast, Zhang Tinglan's kid has been preparing for a long time, his troops must move closer to Fengtian, within a few days, this place will become a battlefield, I must lay down the arsenal before this!" ”

Akajiri Shosuke showed a smug smile on his face: "There is no problem at all, the imperial government will definitely be able to do it, but before that, I still need General Guo to agree to a little condition, only in this way can we become real friends, and the empire can support you unreservedly, and even directly send troops to help you fight." ”

Saying that, Akajiri Massuke sent a document to Guo Songling, which prominently stated that the Japanese Empire was composed of the three eastern provinces of the Joint Defense Agreement.

This agreement was nominally a response to the Russian threat, but in reality it was a treaty of annexation of the three eastern provinces by Japan, which was even more terrifying than Article 21.

The first paragraph: the Middle East Road is jointly organized by the two parties, and the South Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd. is responsible for the daily management, and the profits are equally shared between the two sides. The Jibong Railway under construction will be transferred to the Japanese side, and in the future, the construction of the railway in the three eastern provinces must be reported to the Japanese side, and Japan will provide special loan support.

The second paragraph: expand the garrison power, after the merger of the South Manchurian Road and the Middle East Road, Japan has the right to garrison troops along the line, send two additional divisions to Mukden, and Huludao is leased to the Japanese for 99 years.

Paragraph 3: In order to jointly deal with the threat of the Russian majority, the two sides jointly established the Mukden Bank and jointly managed the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant and all the arsenals in the three eastern provinces. The Fengtian Industrial Group was disbanded and the Sino-Japanese Economic Mutual Assistance Committee was established.

……

There are a lot of them, there are as many as seven paragraphs, each of which is a terrible content, as long as it is signed, the three eastern provinces will be completely reduced to Japanese colonies, Guo Songling's face has completely changed, his fists are clenched unconsciously, and his eyes are full of anger. (To be continued......)
