"Mr. Consul General, Guo Songling has agreed to use troops to overthrow Zhang Tinglan!"

Akajiri Massuke heard Yu Wendian's words, and finally showed a smug smile: "Yo Xi! The Feng army has always been against the Empire and is a stumbling block to the Empire's policy, but this stone will eventually be finished, and the Empire will crush them. ”

Yu Wendian smiled flatteringly: "If you want me to say that there is no one in the world who can confront the Great Japanese Empire, whoever dares to provoke the Great Japanese Empire is looking for death!" ”

Akajiri Massuke nodded proudly, and then said: "Fengjun's combat effectiveness is not weak, and Zhang Tinglan is an extremely tricky figure, is Guo Songling fully sure?" ”

"Yes." Yu Wendian said with a smile: "He has already formulated a detailed jihua, as long as Zhang Tinglan and Kan Chaoxi of Shanhaiguan fight together, Kan Chaoxi has tens of thousands of troops in his hands, plus the Beiyang Army, Zhang Tinglan wants to defeat him quickly, it is impossible." ”

"Well, even tens of thousands of pigs, it will be killed for a period of time, and Zhang Tinglan will be dragged in Shanhaiguan, is it okay?"

"There is also Zhang Zuoxiang and the border guards, this is the most powerful force of the Feng army, if they go south with all their might, Guo Songling will be difficult to resist, so this part needs the help of the Japanese Empire."

Akajiri Massuke thought for a moment, and then said: "It's completely possible, the empire will cut off the South Manchurian Railway, prevent the Feng army from going south, and at the same time create trouble in the Far East, contain their military strength, and firmly control Zhang Zuoxiang and the border guards in North Manchuria." ”

Yu Wendian said with a smile: "The Great Japanese Empire is really powerful, as long as it can do this, Guo Songling will be able to control Fengtian with the liliang in his hand." However, Mr. Consul General, I still have a little question, is the Japanese Empire really ready to let Guo Songling control the Feng Army, he is a two-faced person. There is no loyalty in his heart, and I am afraid that he will not listen to the Empire. ”

Akajiri Massuke sneered slightly, and said contemptuously: "Are you an idiot to be the imperial government, all we need is a civil war in the Feng army, a large-scale civil war, and a long civil strife." As long as it lasts for a month or two, the imperial government can justifiably send troops to the three eastern provinces, and whoever dares to oppose it will kill him! ”

After many open and secret battles with the Feng army. The Japanese also felt fear, the Feng army was developing too fast, the resources of the three eastern provinces were too rich, and if the Japanese did not send troops directly, they would rely on the foundation of the three eastern provinces. Maybe there will be a second Zhang Zuolin, and the most haode way is for Japan to send troops directly. Turn the three eastern provinces into their colonies.

Of course, the Japanese military department has this plan. There is still considerable resistance at home, especially in the cabinet, which is reluctant to use force against China easily and is afraid of falling into the quagmire of war. Therefore, the Japanese had no choice but to completely disrupt the situation in the northeast, and then force the anti-war shili in Japan to bow their heads.

"Yu Sang, you and your brother are good friends of the Empire. The empire will vigorously promote you, and after Guo Songling controls Fengtian, rescue your brother, who is the governor of Fengtian. You are the Minister of Finance. ”

"Thanks for the promotion!" Yu Wendian said and knelt down in front of Akajiri Massuke, sobbing and moving to the extreme: "Mr. Consul General, as long as our brothers master Mukden, from now on, we will be the most loyal servants of the Japanese, let us do whatever we want, absolutely nothing!" ”

Saying that, Yu Wendian excitedly kowtowed to Akajiri Massuke, and his head hit the ground, booming, Akajiri Massuke was also very proud, the people of China were cheap, they were servile, and there were a few exceptions occasionally, but most of them were slaves!

Seeing Yu Wendian kowtow five or six times, Akajiri Masasukke let him get up, and said with a smile: "Yu Sang, the empire is very satisfied with your attitude, do it well, you remember that the imperial government and the powerful Kwantung Army are your backing, and they can help you at any time." ”

After getting Akajiri Massuke's promise, Yu Wendian finally came to his senses, he hurriedly found Xu Youfang Zhouhe, and the three of them discussed it together again, and then told Guo Songling the news and asked him to prepare.

Just when this group of people kept going up and down, Zhang Tinglan had already arrived at Shanhaiguan, and the person responsible for guarding Shanhaiguan at this time was Ding Chao, who only had a regiment of troops under him, and in the face of Kan Chaoxi's tens of thousands of troops, the pressure on Ding Chao's shoulders was too great.

"You're finally here, I'm really worried that I'll lose Shanhaiguan and let those traitors go to the three eastern provinces, and I don't have the face to see my hometown father!"

"Head Ding, don't worry if I'm here, ten Kan Chaoxi can't get in!"

"If there is a commander-in-chief, I will be relieved, I don't know how many men and horses the commander-in-chief has brought over?"

"Not much, just a regiment!"

When Ding Chao heard this, he couldn't believe his ears, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "Commander-in-chief, don't be kidding, although Kan Chaoxi is a rice bucket, there are twenty or thirty thousand people, and there are a large number of Beiyang Army, without one or two divisions of men and horses, how can you hold Shanhaiguan?" ”

Zhang Tinglan said with a wry smile: "I also want to bring so many people over, but the situation in Fengtian is not optimistic at all, I must secretly leave a large number of soldiers to deal with the crisis, so I can only bring so many people over." ”

Ding Chao thought for a while, and then said: "Commander-in-chief, although there are only two regiments of men and horses, but there are still some defeated troops of the Feng army in Shanhaiguan, we are all concentrated, and there are also six or seven thousand people, as long as we are well armed, we can also be the first Kan Chaoxi, and after a period of delay, this group of rebels will collapse without a fight." ”

Zhang Tinglan shook his head again: "We can't wait for Kan Chaoxi to be defeated, on the contrary, we have to defeat them as quickly as possible, and we have to integrate these rebels back and become soldiers of the Feng army again, Kan Chaoxi will also have to deal with this guy." ”

Ding Chao listened to Zhang Tinglan's words, and immediately felt that his head was not enough, there was a gap of five or six times between the forces of the two sides, and he should thank God for being able to hold Shanhaiguan. As a result, Zhang Tinglan still dared to defeat Kan Chaoxi, and he had to use the fastest speed, isn't this nonsense!

Zhang Tinglan didn't explain too much to him, just said with a smile: "Captain Ding, I know in my heart, you just follow the order!" ”

As a subordinate, although Ding Chao felt unreliable, he could only nod yes and take his subordinates to quickly strengthen the defense. Just after Zhang Tinglan arrived at Shanhaiguan, Kan Chaoxi also accompanied Jin Yunpeng to Shanhaiguan.

Jin Yunpeng, as a celebrity under Duan Qirui, looks down on a guy like Kan Chaoxi who surrendered, but Kan Chaoxi does have a lot of troops under him. And when it comes to equipment, it is much better than Beiyang, so he can't be polite.

"General Kan, you are most familiar with the situation of the Feng army, are you sure that you will conquer Shanhaiguan?"

Kan Chaoxi said confidently: "Commander-in-chief, rest assured, once Zhang Zuolin dies, the army's morale is unstable, and the available troops are seriously insufficient, and he will be able to easily capture Shanhaiguan and kill outside the pass." ”

"Good! If you can do it. The prime minister will definitely not hesitate to reward, and when the time comes, the entire three eastern provinces will be brothers', and it is unknown! ”

Kan Chaoxi hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare to ask for extravagance, it's really a sudden death of the handsome, and Zhang Tinglan can't escape the involvement." I want to avenge the great commander and eradicate this traitor. As for the three eastern provinces. I think there should still be a commander-in-chief management. ”

"I'm not interested. I heard that the three eastern provinces are so cold that they can freeze their ears, do they have to suffer? ”

"The commander-in-chief doesn't know that the three eastern provinces are indeed very cold, but the wealth of the three eastern provinces is also incomparable to that of the Guannai, as far as I have heard, it is in the vault of the Mukden Bank. There are dozens of tons of gold, enough to build a gold house. ”

As soon as he heard Kan Chaoxi's words, Jin Yunpeng's eyes widened, and his breathing became heavier and heavier: "What you said is true." Is Feng Jun really so rich? ”

"Of course, otherwise, how dare Zhang Zuolin rely on the liliang of the three eastern provinces to argue with the prime minister?"

"Hmm." Jin Yunpeng nodded thoughtfully: "Defeat the three eastern provinces, and Lao Tzu will also be the king of the Northeast!" ”

Once they become traitors, they will work harder to show their loyalty, and Kan Chaoxi is like this, he personally commanded his artillery and bombarded Shanhaiguan, and the flames of war were ignited in an instant.

After the fight broke out in the direction of Shanhaiguan, the news spread quickly, and the Japanese spies were everywhere, they got the news first, and then reported it to Yu Wendian, who immediately told Guo Songling the news.

At this time, Guo Songling had left Fengtian less than a hundred miles, and he found all kinds of excuses to prevaricate, but he was unwilling to use troops.

"Teacher, Deputy Patrol Envoy Sun has sent a telegram again, asking you to go to Rehe as soon as possible, you can't delay any longer!" Staff officer Wang Yuanqing reported the news to Guo Songling.

Guo Songling did not answer the telegram, but looked at Wang Yuanqing meaningfully, and asked with a smile: "Yuanqing, how long have you been following me?" ”

"It's been two years, I graduated from the lecture martial arts hall, and I have followed the teacher's side and participated in many battles, your ability and character are obvious to everyone, and the teacher is now promoted to the military governor of a province, and he deserves it!"

"Uh-huh!" Guo Songling nodded again and again, and then said with a smile: "Yuanqing, now that the power of Fengjun is in the hands of Zhang Tinglan's father and son, do you think it is appropriate?" ”

"Humble is just a military man and doesn't talk about politics, that's what you told us."

"Indeed, soldiers should not talk about politics, but politics will come to the door, Zhang Tinglan has ill intentions, although the death of the old marshal is said to be committed by the Japanese, but Zhang Tinglan may not interfere. And the young marshal is young, I'm really worried that Han Qing will be bullied. ”

Guo Songling pretended to be distressed and said: "Yuanqing, I am ready to lead the troops back to Fengtian to protect the young marshal, do you think it is feasible?" ”

Wang Yuanqing pondered for a while, then straightened up suddenly, and said loudly: "Everything is subject to the teacher's arrangement, the young marshal is also our classmate and friend, and the classmates who come out of the martial arts hall will also support your decision!" ”

"Good!" Guo Songling completely made up his mind, patted Wang Yuanqing on the shoulder with a smile, and then said: "You go and convey my order, all the troops are assembled, and return to Fengtian as quickly as possible, we can't let Zhang Tinglan come here!" ”

Guo Songling's subordinates were all mobilized, and taking advantage of the night, they returned the same way as fast as they could, heading straight for Fengtian. At this time, Xu Youfang and others were also ready, they mobilized their subordinates, and placed people at various city gates, ready to welcome Guo Songling into the city at any time.

After a day and a night of rapid marching, Guo Songling's troops finally saw Fengtian City from a distance in the evening, and this ancient city seemed to be immersed in a fog. Guo Songling unconsciously clenched his fists, and since the day he led the troops, Guo Songling's ambition has been growing.

Zhang Zuolin was born as a bandit, and he was able to patrol the three eastern provinces and become a veritable king of the Northeast, and he was a military cadet from a genuine class, so there was no reason why he couldn't compare with Zhang Zuolin.

Now that the heaven-sent opportunity is in front of us, Mukden is finally going to have a new master. Guo Songling ignored his fatigue and waved his big hand: "Give me a reward for rushing into Fengtian, everyone will be rewarded!" ”

Guo Songling rushed to the forefront, and at this time, the gate of Fengtian was also opened, and Zhou He was waiting here, and after seeing Guo Songling, he was overjoyed.

"Brother Maochen, come into the city, we have taken control of the city gate!"

"Okay, Brother Zhou, you lead the way in front and kill directly to the Marshal's Mansion!"

Guo Songling and the others did not encounter any resistance along the way, and rushed into the Marshal's Mansion without blood, and the Tiger Hall, which symbolized the supreme power of the Feng Army, was in front of them. Guo Songling suddenly took a few steps and came to the front of the tiger-skinned Taishi chair, his eyes revealing full greed.

"Quick, announce the telegram, we have taken control of Fengtian, and unanimously support the young marshal Zhang Xueliang as the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces, and crusade against the traitor Zhang Tinglan!"

Guo Songling said that Zhang Xueliang would succeed him as the patrol envoy, but he had already sat on the Taishi chair unceremoniously. (To be continued......)
