"The grassland has bred the great Mongolian people, and the inherited culture is indeed unique, compared with the exquisite and delicate food of various foods in the south, the Mongolian cuisine is also in the same vein as the Mongolian people's boldness, free and easy, and at the same time has a unique flavor!" Qin Yu is a person who is very particular about eating, when it comes to eating, milk tofu, calf soup, sheep's back, hand-grilled meat, roasted whole sheep, when he was in Taonan, Tongliao and other areas to suppress bandits, Qin Yu has not eaten these special dishes, at this time, recalling, I also feel that the days of licking blood on the tip of the knife more than ten years ago have a special taste.

"It is an honour for us to be liked by His Excellency the Minister." Na Lin said with a smile on his face.

At this time, in the relatively simple venue of Kulen, a group of Mongolian princes of Outer Mongolia gathered together, and in the face of this real power who was controlling the situation of the entire Republic of China and raising hundreds of thousands of troops to the north, all the princes of Outer Mongolia present were careful to deal with it.

"I respect religious freedom in Mongolia, but religious tenets do not precede the law. It should not harm the interests of all of you. As long as you do not commit any act of betraying the interests of the country, you can inherit the existing land and titles. "When he came to Outer Mongolia, Qin Yu did not hesitate to promise benefits to these princes and nobles, since the Bayan Lama took away a considerable number of monks and rebels in Outer Mongolia, but the rights and interests of these people must also be protected. After all, in the case of extremely poor transportation conditions, these people helped the Republic of China to rule this vast and sparsely populated prairie.

For Qin Yu's admission, Chelin Dolji. Na Lin and the others were naturally grateful, and it didn't matter if they were really as grateful as they appeared to be, as long as the government of the Republic of China could guarantee their fundamental interests. It's better than taking refuge in the Russians, I don't see that the Bayan Lama has become a lost dog, driven out of Outer Mongolia, and the hundreds of thousands of troops accumulated in the grassland can't be faked, for the army in the north of the Republic of China, just a glimpse, Nalin. Chelin Dorji and the others could not afford to confront it in the slightest. Such an army of only a few thousand men would be able to sweep across the steppe.

Also present at the meeting were Chen Yi, a member of the Outer Mongolia Council, and Cao Kun, who came from the south. Yan Xishan, Liu Zhenhua and others.

"Unexpectedly, when Tsarist Russia forced the Republic of China to sign a people-Russian agreement in Kyakhta, I didn't expect that it would only be a few years. The controversial Outer Mongolia was completely under the control of the Republic of China. Liu Zhenhua said with emotion. It stands to reason that there are Cao Kun next to him, Yan Xishan, a big man who has controlled a province for several years, he has no chance to attend such an occasion, but he originally had three divisions in his hand, as the first group of powerful factions to move closer to the central government, coupled with the special situation of Shaanxi and Gansu, it is inconvenient for Qin Yu to remove the troops in his hands, and he controls three divisions in his hands. Once the equipment problem is solved, it is also a strong team. In addition, the former Shaanxi army, which was transferred separately to other places, also asked Liu Zhenhua to coordinate in the center, lest Chai Yunsheng and his ilk still think that the central government was treating them as cattle envoys, although they would not disobey the order, it would damage morale.

"Not only Outer Mongolia, this time the land of Transbaikalia will probably return to the territory of the Republic of China." Cao Kun smiled heartily and looked at Qin Yu and said, "But since I tore my face this time, I'm afraid Yu Shuai won't be satisfied with that." ”

When Cao Kun asked like this, Yan Xishan also looked at him in the same way.

"Yes, since you have torn your face with the Red Russia, there is no need to force it down, Lake Baikal is a barrier, according to my assumption, it is best for the two sides to take Lake Baikal as the boundary, except for the Outer Khingan Mountains lost by the former Qing Dynasty, whether the other lands are forcibly occupied, in the name of Seminov to assist the garrison, with Baikal as a division, it is a relatively safe line of defense, but all this has to win this battle, this is not just a few people invited over, the army is too mixed, and the command is not so easy, Besides, my own hundred and dozens of catties are not enough, several of them are powerful factions in the central military system, just a trip to Kulun can also let Lao Maozi see the determination of the Republic of China this time. Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Let's just go through the motions, you are sitting here with Yushuai, where do those guys dare to make trouble." Cao Kun smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, this time I came to Outer Mongolia, firstly, to respond to your call, and on the other hand, I also want to make amends to you on behalf of Ziyu, he is just a teacher, with a big temper, and he was unhappy with Duan Hefei back then, but I didn't expect to offend Yu Shuai again now, it is indeed out of line." ”

Cao Kun called Qin Yu like this, and he was really convinced, in addition to really treating Wu Peifu as his own, he was also careful to anger Qin Yu for this unwarranted disaster, making Qin Yu mistakenly think that he was secretly instigating. Even if the Northeast Army marched north, the Zhili Army also transferred two mixed brigades, and he did not dare to have any strange ideas in the face of the Central Army, which was still strong in the Guannai.

"Don't need to be like this, the Republic of China has no precedent for controlling crimes because of words, and Wu Ziyu can also fight, when the Sichuan War was fought and the Southern Army was suppressed, Wu Ziyu fought a few beautiful battles. In the first two years of the Civil War, the Northern Army was able to gain the upper hand, and it also relied on Wu Ziyu's earthquake in Hunan Province. The trained Third Division is well-known throughout the country, and if the Third Division is forcibly transferred and the division commander is changed, I am afraid that there will be many dissatisfaction below. Besides, if such a great talent leaves the military circle because of my posture, wouldn't it be a pity, if the Third Division can go north, it can also share a lot of pressure, so that the sons and daughters on the front line can die less, and there is a little more chance of winning this war, let me apologize and what's the point, I will send this telegram! Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Marshal, there are still several divisions in the Northeast, and there are also Central Military Divisions in the Guannei that can be adjusted, but it has not yet reached such a point." Mentioning Wu Peifu's request for Qin Yu to apologize, Yang Xing, who hurried over, also had a great opinion, and at this time he also frowned and glanced at Cao Kun, no matter how capable Wu Peifu is, he is only a division commander, and there are dozens of such figures in the Central Army controlled by Qin Yu, not to mention dozens of them, who actually made such excessive demands. In another person, he would have been removed from his post long ago.

"Yes, Ziyu is just angry for a while. Yu Shuai can't be taken seriously. Cao Kun heard Qin Yu say this, and hurriedly refused, "I'll just take a telegram and let Ziyu go north, if you believe me, he won't disobey." ”

"Wu Ziyu's temper, if the old brother could control it, he would not have repeatedly contradicted Duan Hefei at the beginning. Even if it's because of my brother's feelings. I'm afraid that I have a lot of complaints about me when I go north to participate in the war, if this is the result, it is better to let him stay in Anhui. Wu Ziyu is a capable person. But mortals have the ability to always have some temper. It is not easy for the Central Army to have an extra division of elites, in the past I was assassinated by the Japanese, and I had to sell smiles to the Japanese. More than ten years of resentment can be endured. Is there no room for a division commander? Yang Xing, you don't have to say much. Qin Yu looked at Wang Yuhai, who was also frowning next to him, and said. Send a telegram to the Third Division, saying that I have transferred the Third Division to Anhui before, and now I will transfer the Third Division to the north, so that the officers and men of the whole division will rush to and fro, and there is really no consideration in the arrangement, and I hope that the Third Division will remember the friendship of compatriots and rush to Outer Mongolia to recover the lost land. Fight the enemy together. ”

Yang Xing still had to be persuaded again, but he was also stopped by Qin Yu waving his hand.

"The prime minister can hold the boat in his belly. Today I can be regarded as informed, Yu Shuai is so angry, I can't compare, no wonder the Northeast Army can develop to the current scale, and Yu Shuai's generals are numerous. As soon as this telegram is sent, if Wu Ziyu still pretends to be reserved, it will be humiliating himself, Brother Zhong Shan, you say yes or no. Yan Xishan said beside him.

"Don't worry, Yu Shuai, you are so static, Wu Ziyu will not come to Outer Mongolia again, then he will not know how to lift, I will personally clean him up." Cao Kun's face was extremely moved.

"Don't think that I've been wronged, it doesn't matter if I bow my head to my own people, if I don't win this time, it will be a real humiliation that can't be washed away." Qin Yu smiled, if a telegram can be exchanged for Wu Peifu's dedication to fighting, it can be regarded as a super profit, to unify the Republic of China, it is impossible to really cut the armies of other factions, and the armies integrated by the provinces will inevitably account for a considerable weight, if they do not show a certain bearing, presumably those local armies will be verbally obedient, and there will inevitably be pimples in their hearts.

"Great marshal, good news, the Eastern Front has been victorious, and Lodge is discovering the main force of the Red Russian guerrillas in the area of Kurtu and Yanzhuotza, and has successively broken through the enemy army, killing more than 3,000 people and capturing nearly 2,000 people." Wang Yuhai just finished sending the telegram and said with a happy face.

Everyone present was overjoyed when they heard this, although they all knew that the more than 20,000 Red Russian troops in the Far East had become a lone army, and it was easy to pack it up, but it was of course good news that the good news could come so quickly.

"It's a good sign that we won a big battle before it even started." On the issue of Wu Peifu, Liu Zhenhua couldn't interject, after all, Cao Kun couldn't afford to offend, and Yan Xishan's status was far higher than his, so it was rare to smile at this time.

"Good news indeed." Qin Yu said with a smile, Qin Yu did not feel strange that he could defeat the main force of the Red Russian guerrillas so quickly, the difficulty of the guerrillas lies in the word guerrillas, since the Japanese army was driven to the area from Temple Street to Vladivostok, the head of the Red Russian army in the Far East has also been raised, after all, even the intervention forces of the foreign powers have been driven away, and the Red Russian army is also a place to be proud of, and the Republic of China on the opposite side has an unfriendly attitude and is clamoring for war. But there is nothing commendable, although the Northeast Army has fought hundreds of thousands of old Tsarist Russian troops, but Kolchak and Denikin have not defeated hundreds of thousands of White Guards for them?

Success is a failure, and this saying sometimes applies, and once the main force of the guerrillas is gathered and easily found by Rocky, the weakness of the guerrillas, who have little experience in frontal combat, is completely exposed. This kind of battle could not be won, and Rocky could not sit in the position of commander of the 6th Division. Perhaps after this dismal appearance, the Red Russian guerrillas in the Far East will increase their memory and re-adopt the method of fighting in pieces, but Qin Yu's Northeast Army has the largest special combat team in this era, and it also adopts the method of fighting in small units, and has the ability to quickly deploy troops, presumably the effect of dealing with these guerrillas is much better than that of the previous Japanese army.

Since the few people present were excited when they heard the news of the victory in the first battle, it was not appropriate to dispel this interest.

"Come on, come on, take a drink, it's okay, who doesn't know how much you drink, besides, there's nothing to do on your side today." Li Jichen pulled Zhang Fulai into the tavern and ordered a plate of orchid beans and two catties of beef.

"Yes, the telegram from the division seat was sent, and it was not our turn to have something to do, but Zhang Wensheng and the central government hooked up, after Zhang Xun fell, this guy took the Anhui department, and he was still the head of the Xin'an Wu Army, and now the position still looks so stable, the division seat can't withstand the pressure of the central government, even if there is Zhong Shuai's face, sooner or later it will be replaced, we are afraid that sooner or later it will be swallowed up by the Xin'an Wu Army, or disbanded. Remembering that the central government directly laid off the participating armies, I am afraid that the results of our Third Division will not look much better. Yan Xiangwen, who was traveling with him, couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the fate of the participating army.

"Maybe it hasn't reached that point, the third division is Zhong Shuai's heart, thinking of the love of the past, Zhong Shuai should also pull us at a critical time." Zhang Fulai said in disbelief.

"What will happen in the future, who knows, it depends on whether the master makes Yu Shuai angry, with Yu Shuai's temper, if he really launches a threat, Zhong Shuai can withstand it? Besides, Zhong Shuai doesn't make sense of this, not to mention that the current governor of Anhui doesn't regard our three divisions as descendants. Li Jichen raised his cup and took a sip directly, sighing and saying.

"Damn, how many hardships our third division has gone through to pull the team to the current situation, it would be a pity if it dispersed." Zhang Fulai said with great regret.

"Who said no, we have to sum up this matter, persuade the teacher, and the stubborn temper of the teacher. When Yu Shuai came to power, he also did a few big things, the central government is now in full swing, even foreigners don't dare to despise it, Zhong Shuai has urinated with the central government into a pot, what do we still insist on. ”

"Chief of Staff, Brigade Commander Zhang, Brigade Commander Yan, go to the division headquarters, the division seat is urgent!" The soldiers came quickly, and these people actually came here to drink, so that he could find it easily.

"What's so urgent?" Li Jichen asked, he actually called several of them, since he came to Anhui, this situation has been rare.

"I don't know, the division headquarters received a telegram from Outer Mongolia, and the division sent me over."

"Let's go, I'll know when I go back to the division, and besides, I don't have the heart to eat and drink now." Zhang Fulai pushed away the table and stood up and walked out.

When several people rushed to the division headquarters together, they saw Wu Peifu's straight lieutenant general uniform, they were stunned at first, and then their faces were overjoyed, "Division, the central government has come to order?" ”

"Well, you guys are all in order, let's move today, hurry to the train station, the train has been arranged, go to Outer Mongolia." Wu Peifu couldn't see the expression on his face, but anyone present could see that Wu Peifu's momentum of galloping across the field was back, which was a sign of war.

"Haha, okay, the division finally wants to change, aren't we soldiers just to fight, the Civil War is fought, and this has to be fought even more with Lao Maozi!" Zhang Fulai laughed loudly.

However, compared with the rugged Zhang Fulai, Li Jichen and Yan Xiangwen, who were a little more thoughtful, could see the telegram sent from Outer Mongolia on the table, and both of them were shocked in their hearts, with an expression of disbelief. (To be continued......)
