"Lost Tianjun, don't you think Zhang Zuolin's shili growth is a bit beyond imagination?"

"Mr. Okura, it's true, Zhang Zuolin has expanded his army on a large scale, but he has hardly purchased arms and invested everywhere, but I haven't seen him worry about money, but in fact, Fengtian's financial situation is not good at all, it is difficult to support him to do so many things, and the imperial government is also extremely concerned about this issue."

A smile appeared on Okura's face: "Otada-kun, we have recently found the answer, that is, trade with Russia, including both normal trade and smuggling, Zhang Zuolin is making huge profits from it, only in this way can he get amazing wealth in a short period of time." ”

Lost Tian remained silent, and said with a smile: "There is indeed such a possibility, but we must get evidence, without real evidence, we can't do anything with Zhang Zuolin." ”

"As long as you want to find it, the evidence will not be too difficult, I got the news that a train has recently been sent from Russia to Mukden, and it contains a large amount of gold, as well as munitions. You should know that during the war, the export of gold was forbidden in various countries, and arms were strictly controlled. We and Russia are still allies, and we will never sit idly by and watch the people of China carry out acts that harm our allies, and the Empire of Japan must stand up and uphold justice. ”

As Kihachiro Okura spoke, there was a fierce light in his eyes, as if he was about to eat people. This old guy did have reason to hate Zhang Zuolin, he provided the revolutionary party with 2 million activity funds, but before the revolutionary party could make trouble, it was wiped out by the Feng army, and the money from the big warehouse became the spoils of the Feng army.

As a result, Bongjun used this money to buy a large number of arms from Japan, and after knowing these circumstances, Kihachiro Okura was so depressed that he vomited blood. He regarded Zhang Zuolin's actions as the greatest humiliation to him, and this old guy was the founder of the Okura chaebol. With a lot of connections in his hands, he has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge lately.

Therefore, a lot of manpower was mobilized to investigate Lao Zhang everywhere, and the intensive Sino-Russian trade was also under his supervision, so it was extremely normal for Wang Tieshan to feel a trace of danger.

The old guy can't wait to take the opportunity to kill Zhang Zuolin, but he doesn't know that the road is one foot high and the magic is one foot high, and Feng Jun has already noticed his actions, and the old thing will inevitably steal chickens and rice.

"Mr. Okura, if this is true. We can indeed make a fuss, but I don't advocate exposing it directly, that would only hurt others and not benefit ourselves, and besides, Tsarist Russia is also an enemy of the empire, so there is nothing wrong with letting the Russians lose some. The empire wants to use these evidence to blackmail Zhang Zuolin. Take control of the smuggling operation in your hands, and also restrict the use of Russian-made equipment by the Feng army. To make them have to use the Empire's equipment! ”

Lost fields dealt with Lao Zhang several times. He didn't take advantage of it, on the contrary, he was depressed to death, but as an excellent diplomat, he still clearly knew where the best interests of the Japanese empire were. Zhang Zuolin is just a big trouble, and Tsarist Russia, which has fought a war with Japan, is the biggest threat to Japan.

Now they are in the same trenches, but this alliance is not at all solid. As long as the war in Europe ends, Japan and Russia will inevitably resume conflict over the three eastern provinces, and even fight the Russo-Japanese War again.

Therefore, when Okita heard the news, the first thing that came to mind was how to weaken Russia. How can you enjoy the huge profits alone. Obviously, there is still a discrepancy between Okura's idea and Okura Kihachiro, Okura is bent on getting angry and wants to take the opportunity to kill Lao Zhang.

The old thing is also very shrewd, as long as he grasps Zhang Zuolin's handle, he can be killed at any time, so he also nodded and agreed to Lost Land's proposal.

"Oda-kun, what do you think should be done?"

"Zhang Zuolin is very cunning, just a fox." Lost Tian said: "We have to send people to find out the situation, if we can, I think it is best to act in a place where Zhang Zuolin can't control, that is, after Changchun, we will act immediately, so that Zhang Zuolin has no way to turn over." ”

There was also a hint of coldness between his words, he suffered losses at Zhang Zuolin's hands one after another, this guy has learned smartly, and he simply acted in a place where Lao Zhang Shili couldn't reach, so that accidents could be avoided, and Okura Kihachiro also showed a smug smile.

Just a week later, a military column was moving along the Middle East Road, fast towards Mukden, in charge of this military vehicle was Xia Han, who was also a soldier of the Feng army, participated in the carjacking operation, lost an arm in the battle, and could no longer continue to be a soldier.

For these veterans wounded in battle, Zhang Tinglan has always tried to treat them as preferentially as possible, Xia Han has a very flexible mind, he drove a car for a Russian trading house in his early years, knows a little Russian, and after understanding his specialty, Zhang Tinglan sent him to Xingye Trading Company, back and forth between China and Russia, responsible for escorting goods.

Originally, the company was just for the purpose of giving preferential treatment to the soldiers, and arranged an idle position for Xia Han, who knew that after changing careers, Xia Han was like a fish in water, and he soon reached a deal with the Russians, and the result was also rising step by step in the company, and all kinds of income dividends added up, and he also had a family property of 200,000 oceans.

Moreover, this guy also abducted two fifteen or sixteen-year-old foreign girls back from Russia, and all the old friends of the past were envious. Xia Han has one of the biggest advantages, that is, he misses the old, and now many of these people under him are old and weak who have been dismissed from the army, and there are also some descendants of old brothers who have died.

In his words, if there were no brothers who lived and died together, he would have lost his life a long time ago, so now he is not living for himself, but also for those brothers who have died, to live a wonderful and delicious life.

Originally, he didn't have to follow the train back and forth, but this mission was special, Xia Han had to take the helm himself, although he didn't know the specific arrangements above, but he also felt unusual, he was afraid of leaking the news in the past, but this time he had to deliberately expose the flaws and leak the news, for fear that others would not know.

As the saying goes, abnormality is a demon, so he is also a hundred times more careful and does not dare to slack off. The train passed through the Heilongjiang River and entered Harbin, which was still within the scope of Jilin Province at this time, which was not the same as that of later generations.

After arriving in Harbin, Xia Han felt a burst of eccentricity, crawling on the battlefield for many years, crawling out of the pile of dead people, Xia Han has an unusual intuition about danger, after entering Jilin, there are more and more eyes to monitor.

When I was thinking about whether to report the situation and change the itinerary, a group of Russian policemen suddenly came, came to check the train, and after these people simply looked at it, they turned around and left, without saying anything, but Xia Han already had an extra note in his hand, which was the information from Fengtian.

Using the Chinese to transmit intelligence will obviously attract the attention of others, and for the Russians, there will be much less suspicion, no one can imagine that the Russians will actually help the Chinese with errands, even if the Japanese want to break their brains, they will not think of this, this is preconceived, where will the noble white man send a letter to the Chinese people!

After Xia Han returned to the carriage, he looked at the note, and he immediately knew what to do, sure enough, this was intentional on the part of Fengtian, so he had to play the trick well. After filling up the train with coal and water, it continued to move forward, aiming for Changchun.

This is the dividing line between the Middle East Road and the South Manchurian Railway, as well as the Shili range between Japan and Russia. After a long night, when it was dawn, the train finally arrived in Changchun. At this time, a large number of carriages suddenly appeared at the railway station, and Xia Han also commanded his subordinates to unload all the goods, and then loaded them onto the carriage, and immediately left the train station.

Their actions immediately caught the Japanese spies who had been monitoring all the way by surprise, and this time the Japanese had basically determined that this train had what they wanted, and the Japanese secretly assembled a squadron of railway garrisons, waiting at Gongzhuling, as long as the train left Changchun, they took action.

But the train stopped when it arrived in Changchun, and the things on the train were all taken away, and the Japanese spies were immediately furious, didn't they watch the cooked duck fly away! It's just that they are short of people here, and they have no way to act, so they are really going to kill people.

Looking at the panicked behavior of the Chinese in charge of escorting, the Japanese also decided that there was definitely a problem here, and they must not be easily let go, and these little devils hurriedly asked for instructions.

The Japanese in charge of the operation were also dumbfounded, the other party used a carriage, and the speed was also very fast, and when the Japanese arrived in Changchun, they were afraid that they would have run away long ago. Moreover, after all, this is China's territory, and the Japanese army can only operate along the railway, and if it leaves the railway, it will bring a lot of trouble.

Immediately made the gang of Japanese anxious, and the telegram asking for help was sent to Okura Kihachiro's place, and the old guy was immediately surprised, according to the current situation, it was already obvious that Mukden was aware of the actions of the Japanese, and they wanted to escape in advance.

Okura frowned, he was thinking about how to deal with Zhang Zuolin these days, how could he want to miss the opportunity, after thinking about it, he hurriedly sent a telegram to the Japanese office in Changchun, asking them to find Gao Shifu stationed in Changchun as soon as possible, no matter how big the price was, let Gao Shifu take action, stop the convoy, all the goods should be detained, and none of the escort personnel could be let go.

"General Gao, I hope you can help."

"Mr. Hayashi Village, we have been friends for many years, just say what you have to say!" Gao Shifu said with a grin, this guy is the nephew of Meng Enyuan, the overseer of Jilin, and the cadre and confidant under Meng Enyuan.

If it were someone else, Gao Shifu could slap him away, but the Japanese were different, and they could only treat each other with a smile.

"General Gao, in your Chinese language, you call the Ming people don't speak dark, you help us intercept a convoy, detain people and materials, and I will give you 500,000 yen for hard work!" (To be continued......)
