Chapter 429: The Fuse (3)

"You all talk about it, will this Zhang Zongchang betray Zhang Zuolin?" It was Wang Zhenyu who raised this question, and the objects of his questioning were Yang Yongtai, Yang Du and Zhou Li, and the location was in the Standing Committee Building of Tianyuan.

As the head of the Security Bureau, Zhou Wei naturally had to be the first to stand up and say his analysis: "According to the report of our agents lurking around Zhang Zongchang, there has not been much conflict between Zhang Zongchang and Zhang Zuolin these days, and it is really impossible to conclude that Zhang Zongchang wants to betray Zhang Zuolin. Moreover, according to the observation of our people, although Zhang Zongchang was tyrannical, he was very righteous, and from this point of view, the headquarters of the Security Bureau believed the report of the North China Station and believed that Zhang Zongchang's defection was probably a conspiracy. ”

Yang Du followed up and spoke: "Dashuai, I also don't think this matter can be trusted. This has nothing to do with character, but real interests. Zhang Zongchang followed Zhang Zuolin, he could be his warlord in Shandong, and that little life was no different from that of the Emperor Tu. And if he turns against you and follows the commander now, you will not only lose your military power, but also risk being reckoned with. So from the perspective of reason and interests, this kid doesn't look like he's going to defect, the handsome man needs to be careful! ”

Yang Yongtai rarely agreed with Yang Du once, and agreed very much: "What makes me feel most strange is that for such a major matter, why didn't they come to Wuhan to contact you in person It seems safe, but it is too safe." If we really can't win and we want to avoid the edge, then it's too far-fetched to explain their plan with this, wouldn't it be better to surrender to us directly? ”

Wang Zhenyu saw that the three conspirators under his command actually made a unanimous judgment on Zhang Zongchang, and his heart suddenly settled: "Well, the second question, since Zhang Zongchang is a fraudulent surrender, what is the purpose of his fraudulent surrender?" Or how are these kids and Zhang Zuolin going to trick us? ”

When the three conspirators heard this, they immediately fell into deep thought......

In Jurentang, Zhongnanhai, Zhang Zuolin was receiving Zhang Zongchang and Shi Congbin, who had secretly returned from Shandong.

"Hahahaha, Xiaokun, this time it was you and Shi Lao who made meritorious contributions, let's just wait to bring the Japanese in now."

The tall Zhang Zongchang also smiled: "It's not that Yu Shuai is smart, I think how Wang Wenzheng in Wuhan can be Yu Shuai's opponent when he is only in his twenties, this time it is estimated that he is proud in Wuhan." ”

Shi Congbin seemed to be a little worried and said to Zhang Zuolin and Yang Yuting: "Yushuai, Brother Ge's plan to invite you into the urn is clever, but the humble position is worried about whether this Wang Wenzheng will really be fooled, this is a good person, otherwise there would not be such a big family business today." ”

Yang Yuting nodded and said, "So, in order to fool him, we arranged for Shi Lao to meet with their agents in Beijing." It's a pity that these agents do have some skills, and even the manpower arranged by the Japanese can't hold them. Shi Lao actually doesn't need to worry too much, in my opinion, he Wang Wenzheng Chen 500,000 soldiers on the north bank of the Yellow River are naturally going to the Northern Expedition, our bureau is actually a conspiracy, borrowing the momentum of Brother Kun, using the bait of Shandong to protect Zhili. I believe that as long as Wang Wenzheng's Northern Expeditionary Army goes to Shandong, then he will have to enter this urn next, and he will have to enter if he doesn't. And once the southern army enters Shandong, guess what the reaction of the Japanese will be? ”

Recently, Zhang Zuolin, who has been scolded as a national thief, is in a good mood, so he interrupted Yang Yuting's words: "What can little Japan do, it must be with Wang Wenzheng and them, the only pity is that you are Xiaokun, brother, you have to temporarily give up the territory of Shandong and let Little Japan bite them Wang Wenzheng." But don't worry, I, Zhang Zuolin, am not a person with black hands, this little Japan defeated Wang Wenzheng, and I will seal three provinces for you in the south, you can choose, and you will never break ......your word."

After another burst of laughter, Yang Yuting suddenly frowned and said: "Yu Shuai, our plan is half successful, just Wang Wenzheng is not enough to enter the game, and the Japanese have to be willing to enter the game, we have to think of a way." ”

Zhang Zuolin slapped his face: "This is simple, forge a southern document and transfer it to Little Japan through Xiaokun, just say that the southern army entered Shandong to recover Qingdao and Jiaozhou Bay, guess what the Japanese will do?" ”

Yang Yuting's eyes lit up, and Yu was handsome and smart......

The world-famous Palace of Versailles is located in the town of Versailles, 18 kilometers southwest of Paris, and is a splendid jewel in the treasure trove of human art. The Palace of Versailles was built during the reign of Louis XIV (1643-1715). During his reign, the rule of Zhuanzhi was strengthened and the centralization of power was strengthened. Two wars, the treasury was empty in later years, peasant uprisings broke out one after another, and the French feudal zhuanzhi system began to decline. The ground was broken in 1661 and completed in 1689, so it has a history of more than 330 years. The palace covers an area of 1.11 million square meters, of which the construction area is 110,000 square meters and the garden area is 1 million square meters. The palace building is magnificent, with a tight and coordinated layout. The main palace runs east-west, and the two ends are connected with the south palace and the north palace to form a symmetrical geometric pattern. The palace roof building abandoned the Baroque [Baroque is an architectural and decorative style developed in the 17th ~ 18th centuries. It is characterized by the freedom of shape, the pursuit of dynamic effects, the preference for rich decoration and carving, as well as strong colors, often interspersed with curves and oval spaces] and the traditional French spire architectural style, using the form of a flat roof, which appears upright and majestic. At the upper end of the outer wall of the palace, there are marble statues, which are beautiful and lifelike. The Palace of Versailles is magnificent and spectacular, and its interior furnishings and dΓ©cor are full of artistic charm. More than 500 large halls and small halls are full of gold and luxury. The interior is dominated by carvings, large paintings and tapestries, with furniture of exceptional shapes and craftsmanship from the 17th and 18th centuries. The palace is also home to precious works of art from around the world, including ancient Chinese porcelain from far and wide. The Gallery of Mirrors, built by the great royal painter and decorator Le Blanc and the great architect Benchal, is a major attraction in the Palace of Versailles. It is 72 meters long, 10 meters wide and 13 meters high, connecting the two halls. On one side of the promenade are 17 huge arched doors that open towards the garden, and on the other side are inlaid with 17 mirrors symmetrical to the arched windows, which are made up of more than 400 lenses. On the vaulted ceiling of the Hall of Mirrors is a huge oil painting by Le Blanc, swaying and imposing, showing a picture of the turbulent history. Walking in the mirror gallery, the clear sky and quiet garden scenery are reflected on the mirror wall, full of greenery, as if you are in a garden with fragrant grass and beautiful trees. In front of the main palace is a large French-style garden. The planting of trees and flowers in the park is unique, and the scenery is beautiful and tranquil, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. Standing in front of the main palace and looking into the distance, the artificial river like a jade belt is sparkling, the sail shadow is dotted, the big trees on both sides are towering, lush, and the goddess sculpture stands in the green shade. Near is two pools of blue waves, along the pond copper sculptures are rich and diverse, beautiful.

On June 28, 1919, in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles in Paris, representatives of various countries attending the Paris Peace Conference gathered, and the atmosphere was very warm, and the representatives of the victorious countries walked to the signing table one after another to solemnly and solemnly sign the "Peace Agreement".

Finally, it was the turn of the Chinese delegates to sign, and at this time the delegates of various countries discovered that as one of the victorious countries and the Chinese who had made enough of the limelight in this European war, there was only a very young representative sitting in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles with a blank face.

After the host's third urging, the young Gu Weijun stood up, walked slowly past the representatives of various countries, and looked at the leaders of Britain, France, the United States and Italy on the rostrum, and bit his cheeks to face the signing table.

Gu Weijun looked at the Paris Peace Treaty on the stand, did not speak for a long time, and a sad and inexplicable emotion couldn't help but gush out of his heart, and then he made a sonorous and powerful speech that will forever be recorded in history: "Your Excellency, Distinguished Delegates, I am disappointed that the Supreme Council ignored the existence of China and betrayed China as a victorious country and the Chinese soldiers who sacrificed for the victory of the Entente. I'm angry, I'm angry, why did you give China's Shandong Province to the Japanese? For you, the Chinese have done their best. I want to ask, who can accept such a humiliating peace treaty! Who can accept it? So we refuse to sign, please remember that the Chinese will never forget today! ”

After speaking, Gu Weijun ignored the uproar at the scene and walked away, and the reporters who interviewed and reported on the Paris Peace Conference stepped forward to take pictures of Gu Weijun who left the scene......

Almost on the same day, Wang Zhenyu arrived in Xuzhou, where a secret unit was being inspected by him. The code name of this secret unit is "Shenjia", and the internal number is the First Armored Brigade of the Youth Army of the Nationalist Government, the brigade commander is Gu Zhutong, and the chief of staff Chen Jiji.

The entire army was reorganized from the Guards Division commanded by Zhao Dongsheng and was equipped with a large number of German advisers, including Guderian. At present, the unit has a total of German-made A7V tanks, A7V tanks, and the parameters are as follows:

Combat full weight: 30t Crew number: 16~26 people Artillery: 57mm low-speed artillery machine gun: Ma Keqin 7.92mm heavy machine gun Power settings: 2 in-line 4-cylinder water-cooled civilian gasoline engines, maximum power: 2x100 horsepower. There is a coil spring suspension.

Maximum speed: 10km/h The hull is riveted, and the maximum armor thickness is 30mm.

In the early days, the tank was tall and bulky, and the bottom of the car was only 200mm high from the ground, which was easy to support the bottom (now it seems to be more like an armored transport vehicle); Poor reliability, combined with the small number of units produced (only 20 units were produced in the first batch), did not play much of a role in the First World War.

After secret military cooperation with Germany last year, Wang Zhenyu's first request was this tank, and the second was the MP18 submachine gun. But when he himself saw this strange-looking big guy for the first time in Wuhan, his heart suddenly felt cold, and this was too different from the tank in his memory. Big, bulky and impractical, similar to an iron bunker, it would be a dream to expect to defeat the Japanese with this thing.
