Chapter 182: It's the other way around

(Thank you for the reward of the book friend Kaka Star Man and the Heavenly Sword Rule, and thank the book friend for the monthly pass of the sun and rain in the afternoon!) )

"Your Excellency, Young Marshal. Oh no, it's time to call you handsome. Congratulations! Lucas, the German consul in Chengdu, came to Wang Yuze's side with a glass of wine and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Lucas. If I could, I'd rather not inherit the title. A trace of grief flashed in Wang Yuze's eyes. Lucas and Wang Xiao have a very good relationship and can be regarded as good friends. Wang Yuze called him uncle, and it was not wrong.

"All right, kid. Your father certainly didn't want you to be so depressed. He will be happy in Heaven. Lucas patted Wang Yuze on the shoulder and comforted.

"Thank you, Uncle Lucas. I've just taken over the full power of Kawanishi, and I still need the help of my uncle in many places! Wang Yuze said.

"If there's anything you need my help with, just ask, I'll do my best to help you!" Lucas said without hesitation.

"Uncle Lucas, the industrial base of western Sichuan is too weak, and I need to import a large number of high-precision machine tools from Germany to upgrade the current industrial level of western Sichuan. In addition, I need a large water press. At the end of the year, our shipyard in the North Sea will be completed, and by that time we will be producing our own warships. And the armor steel that warships need, I hope we can produce it ourselves! Wang Yuze said. As naval guns become more and more powerful, the requirements for the defense of warships are getting higher and higher. The steel used on warships is different from ordinary steel. It's all high-strength armor steel. At this time, the role of large hydraulic press is irreplaceable.

"I'll be in touch with the country about this. Kawanishi was Germany's most important friend in the Far East. I should support it in China! Lucas said. Almost all of the heavy industries in western Sichuan were established with the help of Germany. However, although western Sichuan has made great progress in the past few decades, it is still subject to the West in terms of many cutting-edge equipment. High-precision industrial machine tools, large-scale forging equipment, etc., are not yet available in western Sichuan. Of course. Although Kawanishi has made huge investments in this area, it is still some time away from output.

"Then thank you, Uncle Lucas!" Wang Yuze said with a smile. The United States is now beginning to build a 10,000-ton free-forging hydraulic press, and if Kawanishi can make great strides in this area, then in the future construction of large warships, Kawanishi will not be controlled by others. And, of course, large-caliber naval guns. Power equipment such as steam turbines, fire control systems, etc., are all things that the scientific research departments in western Sichuan need to step up their research.

"That's right, Yu Ze. Recently, the British, the Russians and the French seem to be secretly plotting something. You have to pay more attention! Lucas reminded. Relations between western Sichuan and these countries are not harmonious. This is what Germany wants. But at the same time, it is also hoped that western Sichuan can develop stronger and attract the attention of more these countries.

"I see, Uncle Lucas. You can rest assured that the army in western Sichuan is ready. You can take on any challenge! Wang Yuze said firmly. Great Britain, France and Russia, and Little Japan. The trouble in Chongqing has long been detected by the military intelligence bureau in western Sichuan. Kawanishi side. I have already prepared for it. At present, several troops led by the instructor of the Western Sichuan Sect are marching towards Chongqing. Once something happens in Chongqing, they will suppress it in accordance with the orders of the General Staff Headquarters and strive to control the gaffe to the minimum.

"Then I'm relieved!" Lucas laughed.

In one corner of the reception, the British consul in Chengdu, Pierre, the French consul in Chengdu, and Sergei, the Russian consul in Chengdu, were talking together with wine glasses. However, from time to time, their eyes glanced at Wang Yuze, who was talking, and Lucas, the German consul in Chengdu. Obviously, the proximity of Kawanishi and Germany to Germany caused them to feel a crisis.

"Come, those Junker aristocrats in Germany are determined to help these yellow-skinned monkeys. Don't they know that a powerful Far Eastern power would be a catastrophe for the entire West? Pierre, the French minister in Chengdu, said hatefully. The seizure of parts of Guangxi and Guangdong by Western Sichuan gave Western Sichuan a coveted outlet to the sea, posing a serious threat to the important French colony of Indochina.

"These Germans only know that they are for their own interests, but they will definitely regret it!" The British consul in Chengdu, Zhu Erdian, said. Last time, Britain was defeated at the hands of Kawanishi and had to sign a humiliating treaty, which made Zhu Erdian very angry. The British Empire, as the world's largest power, actually surrendered to the weak yellow-skinned monkey, which is simply a great shame!

"All right, gentlemen. I don't want to make people angry. Didn't we do a good job in Chongqing? It is estimated that those two people in Chongqing have already started to launch! I wondered what it would be like for the young ruler to receive the news of his rebellion just after taking over! Sergei, the Russian consul in Chengdu, said with a smile on his face.

This is an insult to Kawanishi and to this arrogant and conceited young marshal. However, the gap in the strength of the two sides is too big, and the two people who restarted will not be able to resist the attack of West Sichuan. Zhu Erdian said with a frown every day.

"Your Excellency Zhu Erdian, of course we know this. We're just trying to give Kawanishi a headache for a while. If Chongqing can succeed, it will naturally be the best. If it doesn't work out, that's okay. We don't expect them to be able to overthrow Kawanishi. Pierre, the French consul in Chengdu, said with a smile. The reason why they worked hard to provoke the two uncles and nephews of Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang in Chongqing was just to consume the strength of western Sichuan. As for the promises made to Chongqing, they are simply empty promises.

"Well, we just need to put on a good show!" Zhu Erdian also said with a smile.

It didn't take long for a major staff officer to hurriedly enter the cocktail party, and after he found the deputy chief of staff, Cai Yun, he whispered a few words in his ear. Suddenly, Cai Yun's face changed greatly.

Cai Yun walked to Wang Yuze's side, not knowing what to say, which made Wang Yuze's face extremely difficult. Subsequently, Wang Yuze, Chief of Staff Xiong Wu, Deputy Chief of Staff Cai Yun, Prime Minister Liang Xingrong, Minister of the Interior Wang Quan, and Minister of National Defense Jiang Xingguo all withdrew ahead of schedule. They went to a small conference room at the General Staff Headquarters to discuss the current situation.

The French, British, and Russian consuls in Chengdu were overjoyed when they heard this, knowing that the show they had planned had begun. Next, we are waiting for a good show to break out in western Sichuan and Chongqing.

"I just received information that Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncle and nephew in Chongqing have publicly issued a statement announcing that they have joined the Manchu Qing Dynasty!" Cai Yun's face was full of anger. It is the first time that such a thing has happened since the establishment of Sichuan West for so many years.

"How did the Manchus reply? There is no acceptance of Chongqing's annexation. Prime Minister Liang Xingrong asked.

"The Manchu side is silent on this matter and has not issued any law!" Cai Yun said.

"Humph! Count them as acquaintances. Otherwise, I'll clean them up this time. What is the progress of the troops? Wang Yuze asked. If the Manchu Qing really dared to jump out and go against Sichuan West at this time, then Wang Yuze would not mind giving the Manchus another sharp blow, even if he did not completely overthrow the Manchus, he would have to cut off a few more pieces of meat. For example, Hunan, Guangdong, these provinces Wang Yuze has been hot for a long time.

"The instructor has arrived in Neijiang and will be able to enter Chongqing tomorrow. However, Chongqing's second division should have been completely controlled by Liu Xiang. According to the information we have received, the 2nd Division has mobilized a regiment of troops and deployed it in Rongchang in an attempt to resist our advance! Several other troops, all of which are also progressing smoothly, are expected to launch an attack on Chongqing in the next two days! Xiong Wu said. As early as a few days ago, the General Staff Headquarters had already made arrangements, and the various departments had already begun to act, and now as soon as the Chongqing side declared a rebellion, the Western Sichuan Army was immediately able to suppress it.

"That's good. However, in the process of attacking, we must pay more attention not to harm the innocent. At the same time, Qijiang Industrial Zone must be protected and cannot suffer any losses! Wang Yuze emphatically said.

"Don't worry, the commander of the Eighth Division has already arrived in Qijiang. The General Staff Headquarters changed the operational order of the 8th Division and put them in charge of assisting the 3rd Brigade in protecting the Qijiang River. As for suppressing the rebellion of the 2nd Division, the other three divisions were enough! Xiong Wu said.

Wang Yuze was relieved.

"According to the latest news obtained by the Military Intelligence Bureau, Liu Xiang imprisoned Lin Bin, the deputy commander of the Second Division, and other officers who opposed him. Now, the main force of the 2nd Division has entered Chongqing, cooperated with the police in Chongqing, and completed the control of the whole city of Chongqing. Wang Quan said.

"Suppress them as much as possible! Otherwise, it will have a very bad impact on us! Wang Yuze said.

"Rest assured, the General Staff Headquarters will go all out and strive to complete the suppression of the rebellious Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncles and nephews within a week!" Xiong Wu immediately reassured. Although Wang Yuze is his son-in-law, he still regards himself as a subordinate when talking about official affairs.

"Let the commanders of the seventh, eighth, and eleventh divisions come to see me! They must immediately rush back to their troops and participate in the suppression of the rebels! Wang Yuze said.

Soon, Lin Chengye, the commander of the 7th Division, Chen Wenjun, the commander of the 8th Division, and Gao Chang, the commander of the 11th Division, were ordered to come to the conference room. Just now, Wang Yuze and others left in a hurry from the cocktail party, which made everyone have some doubts. Now that they were ordered to summon them, they didn't know what happened to Yan zhòng.
