With the Fourth Front's Daqingshan defeating Stessel's interception, the situation on the battlefield was already very favorable to the Chinese. Zaitao's frontal assault is still continuing, and as of today, more than a dozen county towns have been recovered, and Wu Peifu's assault is also handy, and Lao Maozi's entire Mongolian defense system is facing collapse.

Under such circumstances, the Russian troops on the battlefield in Beijing were in a very bad situation.

Yang Xiaolin was uncharacteristically this time, and did not always punch the other side quietly as before, he not only carried out a general mobilization among the Chinese troops, issued an order to all the soldiers to fight a large-scale war of annihilation and pay tribute to the first year of the republic, but also held a press conference.

Such a press conference really aroused great interest in the media of various countries in Beijing, and Commander Yang had never done such a thing. His previous war tactics were to pay attention to the concealment of an action, and he never negotiated anything with the other party before hitting someone.

Yang Xiaolin showed at this press conference that in addition to a mature Commander Yang who was completely different from the previous Yang Fighting Ghost.

He first stressed to the news media that China is a peace-loving country and that the war that is now going on is entirely an act of war imposed on the Chinese by the Russians. The Beiyang Army, the Volunteer Army, the Revolutionary Army and the Mongolian Resistance Army made important sacrifices for this war, and Commander Yang, as the commander-in-chief of the Republican Road, represented China and expressed his high respect for the soldiers who were fighting bloody battles on the front line.

Now that China has gained the initiative in the war, the next thing to do is to fight to recover its territory. A reporter asked Yang Xiaolin. When and in what way will the war end. And some people still ask why China is now unwilling to accept the peace talks initiated by the British.

Yang Xiaolin immediately said that this question was very clear when Yuan Shikai declared war. When all the foreign armies that have stepped into our soil have laid down their arms, China will be able to declare the end of the war. The same is true for peace talks, the only condition is that Russia unconditionally lay down its arms in the entire armed forces of China in China!

Yang Xiaolin's attitude is as simple as this, if the Russian troops in China are not willing to take the initiative to lay down their arms, then he will use his own way to make Russia accept such peace talks!

At present, the number of Russian troops on the battlefield is still superior, and many military experts say that although the situation on the battlefield is already very favorable to China. However, if the Russians resist desperately, it will bring great losses to the Chinese side.

Commander Yang knew that those people were right, and the total annihilation of the Russian forces would definitely make the Chinese pay the price. Even as Mr. Sun Wen said, the two countries could be plunged into a permanent war. It doesn't matter, you can die as much as you want, you just can't let Lao Maozi go back like this!

A robber broke into our home. Smashed our stuff. slashed our family, and when he saw that the situation was wrong when we fought back, he said sorry and wanted to leave? When Commander Yang was a police officer before, he really didn't know which country's laws allowed such a situation to happen.

The British and French reporters were obviously nervous about Yang Xiaolin's press conference, while the attitude of the Germans and Austrians was completely different, and they were very appreciative of Commander Yang's desire to solve the Mongolian problem by means of war.

German reporter Meittle asked at the end of the press conference: "Commander Yang, we in Germany have always maintained an attitude of support for this just war being waged by the Chinese, and I believe that the Chinese troops will definitely be able to achieve the most victorious victory." All Russian troops in Mongolia withdrew to the Kulen area for defense, and Kizerosky's corps began to retreat on all fronts. If you could, could I ask you to make a prediction about the war? ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled: "What kind of prediction?" ”

"Can you predict which Chinese army will attack Kulen first? It is your first front army with the strongest combat effectiveness. Or the Fourth Front, which is in the best position? ”

Many reporters in the back were obviously interested, and some voices said loudly: "It should be the commandos, they are now operating in the Cullen area." ”

This topic obviously brought the press conference to a climax, and before Commander Yang could answer, the reporters began to debate separately. Listening to the following reaction, the corners of Yang Xiaolin's mouth smiled slightly, and only after the debate subsided for a while, did he slowly say: "This, there is no need to predict, I can clearly tell you that the first to attack Kulen is the Fifth Front Army of the Republic!" ”

The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone was stunned for a while, and then even more incomprehensible. China now has only four fronts, where is the fifth? Yang Xiaolin did not give them any more answers, and after speaking, he bowed and announced the end of the press conference, and tomorrow, the Chinese troops will launch a counteroffensive against the Kizerosky Corps.

Cullen.

Zhang Xun, the Minister of War of the Great Qing Kingdom, hurriedly walked to the Prince's Mansion, and when he walked to the door of the mansion, he looked left and right, and only after making sure that no one was following him did he gently click the knocker.

The people inside had apparently been waiting for him for a long time, and the door opened,

"Master, are you here? The prince has been waiting for you for a long time, please come in. ”

Zhang Xun nodded, and when he crossed the threshold, he saw Zaifeng sitting on a chair in the main hall. Seeing Zhang Xun's figure coming in, Zaifeng hurriedly got up: "Lord Zhang, you just came, is there a reply from the south?" ”

Zhang Xun's face was not very good-looking, and Zaifeng was very anxious: "You have something to say." ”

Zhang Xun took out a piece of paper from his arms: "Lord Wang, I really can't help you, so the south gave this reply." ”

Zaifeng hurriedly took a look at Yang Xiaolin's letter of appointment, appointing Zhang Xun as the deputy commander of China's Fifth Front Army, temporarily responsible for commanding the battle. The task of the Fifth Front Army was to cooperate with the attack of the large army when the army was coming, seize Guangxu at the right time, and control the situation in Kulun.

In fact, Zaifeng and Zhang Xun both have the same idea, including many ministers of the so-called Qing Dynasty, who are trying their best to contact the south. This also has a lot to do with the Russians, you must know that the idea of these people is to rely on the Russians to restore the Qing Dynasty, but with the passage of time. They slowly saw clearly that Lao Maozi didn't really want to help them restore the country, even if Mongolia became independent. They are also a bunch of two devils.

At this time, they still think that the puppet will be a puppet, the thing has been done, and it is not appropriate to change anything. After all, there are few in the Qing Dynasty like Zaitao.

Later, the situation seems to be getting more and more wrong, how does it seem that it is a little difficult to be a puppet? When Wu Peifu was on the edge of Kulun, Zaifeng came to find Zhang Xun and asked Zhang Xun to take him on a living path.

Zhang Xun was still pretending to be confused at the time, and later Zaifeng said, don't hide it from anyone you can. You are in charge of the army, I am in charge of supplies, and you put those gasoline and bullets that we don't need here where and where you will definitely be beaten down by Wu Peifu. Are you stupid for me?

Zaifeng said that he helped prevaricate after the Russians investigated several times, and if Zhang Xun didn't take him with him, he would find out about it. Don't think about it, everybody.

Zhang Xun saw that something had been missed. Don't dare to kill Zaifeng's mouth, so take it.

After reading Yang Xiaolin's letter of appointment carefully, Zaifeng frowned after thinking for a while: "Lord Zhang, this may be an opportunity for us by Yang Dagui, as long as we do this well, everything will be discussed." Didn't you see that the establishment of the army was not even determined for you? And only give you a deputy commander, what does this mean? The meaning of this is very clear, you will just have a deputy position in the future. ”

Zhang Xun sighed: "Of course I know what Commander Yang means. It's just the prince. There is no mention of your arrangement, and I am afraid that I have wronged you. ”

Zaifeng smiled bitterly and said, "Oops." What grievances are you talking about now, you arrange an idle post for me in the army, and when the battle is over, we will have the life to go back, and don't go back to Beijing, just find a place to live in peace and stability, what grievances can you talk about? ”

Zhang Xun said: "Yes. But Lord Wang, I think you can also go and find a Tao, after all, you are connected by blood, he will not help you, right? Also, I can show you the way again. Lei Zhenchun, don't you know each other? He is now a celebrity in front of the president, let him help say something, useful. ”

Zaifeng thought for a moment: "Hey, I've found it." Lao Zhang, I'm different from you, you have an old friend from Beiyang to help you speak, I have nothing here! Last time, Lei Zhenchun also brought a message, saying that it was okay to help, but to order this,"

Zaifeng's hand made a money gesture, and then stretched out five fingers. Zhang Xun's brows furrowed: "I said the prince! Isn't it silver? You have been short of these 50,000 taels for so many years? ”

"Fifty thousand? I will give him all the 500,000 he wants, but he wants 5 million taels! ”

Zhang Xun was shocked when he heard it: "Oh, it's so dark? ”

Zaifeng sighed, his expression was extremely helpless: "Where else did I get the five million for him!" If so, would you hesitate to do so? ”

The two of them were silent for a while, and Zaifeng finally put his hand lightly on the back of Zhang Xun's hand: "Lord Zhang, Zaitao's kid is a bastard, and it is not possible to expect him at all." I have no other way now, and this old life depends on you. ”

Zhang Xun nodded very interestingly: "Okay!" Don't worry, Lord Wang, I will immediately send a telegram to Commander Yang to report the list of troops, you are my logistics minister, how about it? ”

Now Zaifeng also knows that this is the best way out for him, and he is very grateful at the moment: "Then thank you Master Zhang." Don't worry, Lord Zhang, if you can get out of trouble safely in the future, you will be my reborn parents! ”

As he spoke, he stood up from his chair and gave a long bow. Zhang Xun hurriedly got up and helped each other: "What are you doing here!" Lord Wang, see outside! I'm so angry! ”

Zaifeng sent Zhang Xun out with a thousand thanks, and as soon as he walked out of the door, Zhang Xun's personal soldiers greeted him: "My lord, how are things going?" ”

Zhang Xun looked back and sneered on his face: "This guy is just a iron rooster, Lao Tzu told him for a long time that he is a dime!" Want to be the Minister of Logistics? I'll tell you, you bring a few brothers to him tomorrow, and say that the formation of the army needs funds, let him take 200,000 taels of silver! I don't say that. ”

The soldier replied, "Yes! Don't worry, my lord, he is really iron, and this time we will pluck him a few hairs down! ”

Zhang Xun sorted out his thoughts and said that he really needed money now. He knew very well what information Yang Xiaolin conveyed to his deputy commander, he had thought about it, and when this time passed safely, he would find a place to do business well, and never get involved in these things again.

It takes money to do business, and his brothers really have to arrange it. Zhang Xun has no money himself, so let Zaitao pay a little out. He has calculated it for Zaifeng, and more than one million can still be squeezed out. Originally, he felt a little embarrassed, but now it seems that he is merciful. Lei Zhenchun: That's really dark! Five million! (To be continued......)
