Chapter 471: Duan Qirui stepped down

There are two things in the world that are the most difficult, the first is to take the money from other people's pockets into their own hands, and the second is to put their own thoughts into other people's heads.

In a person's life, some concepts formed at the age of 20 or so will not change for almost a lifetime, and at this time, the most important role is played by teachers, whose words and deeds imperceptibly affect every student. There is a large group of pro-Japanese teachers who have influenced it, and the results produced are absolutely unimaginable. It is even unceremonious to say that these teachers are far more harmful than those spies, and they have almost poisoned an entire generation.

"Since they jumped out, they will take this opportunity to clean up for me, not only to deal with the spies, but also to deal with these thieves for me."

Chang Yinhuai hurriedly nodded yes, and Zhang Tinglan explained: "But we should also pay attention to the distinction between these teachers, if they are simply deceived, they can be given a chance to reform themselves, if they are purely pro-Japanese, they must be kicked out of the teaching team, as for those who have too deep a relationship with Japan, they must investigate the problems behind it, find out whether the Japanese are engaging in cultural aggression, consciously cultivate traitors and literary thieves, and once they are discovered, they must be resolutely put an end to." ”

"Mr. Min Yuan, at present, it seems that our management of the university is still seriously insufficient, the gun and the pen are the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, which side of the flood, will be a disaster for the people of several provinces, especially the pen, can not lose vigilance. I propose that after this turmoil is over, the university should set up a special political discipline department, and in addition, the university's finances should be managed, and the teaching materials should also be unified. ”

"Don't worry, I'll go to prepare right away and promise to come up with a comprehensive plan."

Yang Yuting, who was on the side, also suddenly said: "Humble words." These clowns are easy to deal with, as long as they jump out, they will definitely not be able to escape, but what worries me is the attitude of the Japanese, they are silent, this time they caught their spies, and they want to attack the traitors and literati they have cultivated, and the interests of the Japanese have been moved, and they cannot be indifferent. ”

"That's true, in my opinion. They want to have a showdown with us! ”

Zhang Tinglan's guess is indeed good, the Japanese are so tossed, it is not without gain, they have already got some things they want. Akajiri Massuke has put together some key information and is reporting it back to the country.

"Mr. Consul General. This is the latest piece of information, for this information. Three intelligence officers of the empire have already been arrested. ”

Akajiri Shosuke took it. After taking a look, he suddenly looked up to the sky and said proudly: "It's worth it, this sacrifice is worth it, and the handle of Fengjun is in our hands!" ”

Akajiri Shosuke hurriedly sent the information back to Japan, and this information did not reach Prime Minister Takashi Hara first. Instead, it fell into the hands of the Minister of War, Tian Tadashi Yoshiichi. After reading the information, Tanaka hurriedly went to visit Aritomo Yamagu, the most powerful patriarch in Japan.

Yama Prefecture Aritomo is in his early eighties, and the old guy is after the death of Hirobumi Ito. In the Japanese political arena, he calls for wind and rain, and he has unparalleled power. However, like all politicians, Yamaguchi Aritomo is inevitably getting old, and he is cultivating Tanaka more and more, hoping that he will continue to lead the entire faction.

"Elder, I already have the exact information, the Fengtian side has smuggled a batch of important equipment from Europe, these equipment represent the most advanced Jishu level in Europe, once it falls into the hands of the Feng army, their strength will expand rapidly, beyond the control of the empire."

"Didn't you intercept the Moon Goddess a few days ago, and as a result, it also caused a dispute with the United States, this kind of thing must not be reckless."

"Elder, the information this time is very reliable, and there is reason to suspect that the Moon Goddess is a deliberate ghost in China, the Mukden government is very sinister, and it is a strong enemy of the empire, I think we should take advantage of the fact that their strength is still relatively weak, and decisively send troops to occupy Manchuria!"

At this time, Japan was fully engaged in a naval competition with the United States and Britain, and a large amount of money was tilted towards the navy, Tanaka Yoshiichi was not satisfied with this, he hoped to strengthen the role of the army through war, and at the same time, it was also to swallow the northeast and lay the foundation for swallowing the whole of China.

Shan Shan lowered his eyelids slightly, motionless, as if an old monk had settled down, and Tanaka didn't dare to disturb, so he could only wait quietly. After a long time, Shan Shan picked up his eyelids and asked with a little doubt: "If the empire uses force against China, causing dissatisfaction from the United States and Britain, how should it deal with it?" ”

"Patriarch, as long as it is confirmed that China is smuggling key equipment from Europe, and it also harms the interests of the great powers, they will not interfere too much with the empire. As long as the empire plays the banner of dismantling the Fengtian industry, it will be able to smoothly send troops and solve the Fengtian Arsenal, Anshan Iron and Steel Plant, and Harbin Locomotive Factory, and the Fengtian army will no longer be threatened, and Manchuria will be in the hands of the empire and can be taken at any time. ”

Tanaka Yoshiichi said his own idea, this guy is also very cunning, and he did not directly engage in a full-scale war, but aimed at solving the industrial capacity of the Feng army, which can minimize the dissatisfaction of the great powers, as for what to do after the Japanese army took control of Manchuria, it is difficult to say......

After hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in the old man's eyes, and he nodded slightly: "The Feng army has provoked the dignity of the empire several times, seriously affecting the interests of the empire in Manchuria, and they must be taught a lesson to ensure the dignity and interests of the empire." ”

When Yoshiichi Tanaka heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, Yama County approved their idea, and who else could stop it. Yoshiichi Tanaka said goodbye to Yama County in a hurry, went to Prime Minister Hara Kei, and briefed him on the situation.

Yuan Jing's brows furrowed, and after thinking for a while, he asked again, "Is the information reliable?" If it is another false news deliberately released by the Feng army, the problem of the Moon Goddess has not been solved, and if there is trouble again, the empire will be very passive. ”

"Mr. Prime Minister, don't worry at all, the Imperial Government has used a large number of intelligence officers, and the news is absolutely true. And I have a new proposal, this time we don't have to do anything with the freighter, but after the cargo has landed, we will take action. They went to Lianyungang this time to pass through the Longhai Railway and then transfer the Jinpu Railway. Zuihou is transported back to Mukden via the Gyeongbong Railway. As long as the Duan Qirui government can cooperate with us, we can easily detain the goods! ”

When Yuan Jing heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, offending the great powers would bring great trouble, but the Japanese did not have any burden to bully the Chinese government, and they even said that they were familiar with the road and were handy. Yuan Jing weighed it again and again, and found that there was no risk. So readily agreed.

The Japanese government has dealt with Fengjun many times and suffered a lot of losses, and Tanaka Yoshiichi is ready to take advantage of this opportunity to get all his face back and make Fengjun pay a heavy price. Know the consequences of provoking Japan!

Just as the Feng army was stepping up its sweep of garbage, the Japanese also took action. Communicate with Beiyang. Investigate intelligence, secretly send troops, and prepare for the attack.

The two ships crossed the sea, crossed the Strait of Malacca, and went straight to the direction of Lianyungang, and Jiao Chuwang, the representative of the Fengjun who was in charge of escorting the ships. They have been adrift at sea for more than two months, and it is naturally extremely joyful to see that they will be able to return to China.

The journey was very smooth, and it also made them let their guard down a lot. After the ship arrived in Lianyungang, the goods on the ship were unloaded, and a number of warehouses had been rented in advance, and the goods were smoothly put in, waiting for the freight train to open, and these things were transported to Xuzhou first, and then went north to Fengtian.

"Boss, why do I feel like someone is staring at us from behind when we go ashore?"

Jiao Chuwang was also a little puzzled at this time, after going ashore, the situation was indeed a little abnormal, there were always many patrol officers who walked here repeatedly, as if they were monitoring something!

Jiao Chuwang was also frightened at this time, what he got this time was very important, and he must not lose it. After thinking about it, he also felt that Lianyungang was a place of right and wrong and could not stay for a long time, so he immediately contacted the direction of the railway, hoping to transport the goods away as soon as possible.

Just when Jiao Chuwang left the warehouse not long ago, a team of Beiyang troops quickly rushed towards the port, these people were loaded with guns, and after rushing into the port, they quickly pounced on Jiao Chuwang and their warehouse like wolves and tigers.

"What are you going to do, we are all legal goods, why are you seizing them?"

"No, to tell you the truth, if you offend someone who shouldn't be offended, you will definitely not end well!" Jin Yunpeng said with a sneer.

Behind him were a few Japanese, and after controlling the warehouse, Jin Yunpeng said to them with a smile: "Mr. Xiaochuan, go check it out and see if it's what you want?" ”

Xiao Chuan nodded, and then rushed into the warehouse with a few subordinates, carefully inspected all the goods, Jin Yunpeng was waiting respectfully outside, the overseers of a dignified province, the cadres of Beiyang were like slaves, and they really lost their identity.

However, he does not have this awareness, since the last time Zhang Zuolin entered the customs, the Anhui department and the Feng army have completely fallen out, the two sides are not the same furnace, if the Feng army recovers, maybe Beiyang will be completely finished, and the Anhui system can only completely throw itself into the arms of the Japanese, in exchange for the support of the Japanese.

Xiao Chuan walked out of the warehouse quickly, and after seeing Jin Yunpeng, his eyebrows and eyes smiled, and his face bloomed with happiness.

"Jin Sang, this is the forbidden equipment that the empire is looking for, including machine tools for processing guns, a production line for shells, two sets of power generation equipment, and a hundred engines, these things, not a single screw can flow into Mukden, you have done the Japanese Empire a favor, and the empire will definitely not treat you badly."

After receiving Xiao Chuan's appreciation, Jin Yunpeng was immediately triumphant, and said with a smile: "Don't dare to take credit, the Feng army got these things in order to produce weapons and fight against the central government, and it is also our duty to be able to intercept them." ”

Jiao Chuwang happened to come back from the Railway Bureau at this time, but when he found that the warehouse was occupied, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. These equipment have been repeatedly explained from above, and they must be transported to Fengtian, and now they have been intercepted by Beiyang, how can this be explained!

The scene in Lianyungang was quickly reported to Japan by Ogawa, and after the Minister of War Tanaka Yoshiichi got the news, he immediately swept away the haze of some time ago, and Prime Minister Hara Kei and Foreign Minister Yasuya Uchida were also the same, and finally found the equipment of Mukden, so that Shijie could also have an explanation, and the Japanese government could also get rid of the unfavorable situation. The Moon Goddess incident was only caused by an intelligence error, not that Japan really had the intention to provoke the incident.

The Japanese government then began an intensive bombardment, claiming that they had intercepted important machinery and equipment of the Feng army. In the report, in order to enhance credibility, the Beiyang government naturally did not run, and Jin Yunpeng was also named and praised by the Japanese!

The news of the Japanese immediately spread in China, and people from all walks of life saw Beiyang's actions, and since May Fourth, there have been countless accusations of betrayal against the Duan government, and this time they once again acted as the minions of the Japanese, and suddenly it was like a spark falling on an oil barrel, and public opinion was completely detonated.

"Everyone is talking, what kind of thing is this old section, people have worked hard to get machinery and equipment, this is a good thing to increase the strength of our country, and in the future, guns and cannons can be produced by themselves, and there is no need to beg foreigners. As a result, Lao Duan helped the Japanese intercept him, which country's prime minister is he? ”

"Needless to say, people take loans from Japan, so they are naturally slaves of the Japanese!" The teahouse was full of such chatter.

The slogan of the march came from outside, shaking the heavens and the earth: "Duan Qirui step down!" The national thief goes into the wilderness! (To be continued......)
