Chapter 155: Wu Haoxuan's Invitation (Asking for Subscription)

"Haha, Brother Huizi, I admire you as a person, so I don't want to be false with you. I'll be honest with you. The Beiyang Army's attempt to attack Shengjing and put our Jilin Army to death, made my Jilin Army very indignant. Generals and officers who demanded to send troops to attack Yanjing abounded. Wu Haoxuan said.

A trace of worry suddenly flashed on Yang Du's face, as the war between the Jilin Army and the Japanese Army ended, more and more details of the war were sent to the Beiyang government. They learned that the Japanese had invested 10 divisions and more than 200,000 troops in this battle, but they were still defeated by the Jilin Army. Such strength is enough to make the Beiyang government feel frightened.

Wang Shizhen, minister of war in Beiyang, and Duan Qirui, chief of the general staff of the Beiyang Army, both said that if the Japanese army of 10 divisions attacked the Beiyang Army, the Beiyang Army would not be able to hold out for even a month, let alone defeat the Japanese Army. Now, the Jilin Army has even defeated the Japanese army, which undoubtedly means that the combat effectiveness of the Jilin Army is stronger than the Japanese army! If the Jilin Army marches to Yanjing City, I am afraid that the final result will be that the Beiyang government will be completely driven out of Yanjing City. Once Yanjing City is lost, will the Beiyang government still be able to control the whole country? If you don't do it, the whole Beiyang will fall apart. Such a price is a little too great. If the high-ranking officials of Beiyang could have expected such a result to send troops outside the customs, they probably would never have made such a decision.

"Your Excellency, young marshal, then how can you let go of the Beiyang government? The Prime Minister is willing to hand over the entire Northeast to the Jilin Army to control. Yang Du said. Although, giving up the entire northeast means that the power of the Jilin Army will be further strengthened. However, Yuan Datou had no other choice. What's more, after this war, the Jilin Army has already substantially controlled the entire northeast.

"Brother Huizi. The Northeast has long been controlled by the Jilin Army, and there is no need for Yuan Datou to be a good person. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile.

"Do you have any other requests? We can all talk. Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "The Jilin Army doesn't want to fight, let alone do anything to its own people. If it weren't for the injustice of the Beiyang Army, we wouldn't want to use the sword soldiers in vain. But since the Beiyang Army started a war against us first, then. We have to give an explanation to our men. Otherwise, how can we command hundreds of thousands of soldiers? ”

Yang Du nodded, expressing his understanding of Wu Haoxuan's words. This time, it is indeed the Beiyang government that is looking for death by itself!

"It's not impossible for Brother Hui to tell Yuan Datou that he wants us to give up the attack on Beiyang, just need to agree to a few of our requests." Wu Haoxuan said.

"Young marshal, please speak." Yang Du was shocked, and Wu Haoxuan was willing to put forward conditions. This undoubtedly shows that there is still room for things to turn around! If Wu Haoxuan refuses to put forward conditions and directly leads his troops to attack, that will be the most troublesome.

"First, the Beiyang government wants to recognize our control over the Northeast." Wu Haoxuan said.

"Please rest assured, the Prime Minister has already planned to appoint the Overseer as the Northeast Patrol Envoy, with jurisdiction over Fengtian, Jilin, Heilongjiang and Rehe." Yang Du said.

"Second, it's not just the Northeast that will be handed over to us, Chahar. Suiyuan and Mongolia must also be handed over to us. I can let my father serve as a patrol envoy to the northeast. He also served as the envoy of Mongolia and Xinjiang. Wu Haoxuan said.

Although Mongolia is vast and sparsely populated, its strategic location is very important. Not to mention that Suiyuan is also one of China's seven major iron ore mining regions. China's seven major iron ore mining areas are Benxi, Anshan, Suiyuan, Qian'an, Ma'anshan, Panzhihua and Shilu. Among them, Benxi and Anshan are both in Mukden and are already under the control of the Jilin Army. However, the future Tohoku will certainly be an important battlefield. Once the war with the Japanese continues. The steel factories in Benxi and Anshan will certainly become the target of the Japanese attack. Although Wu Haoxuan was confident that he would defeat the Japanese and hold these steel plants. However, he had to prepare for the worst. If a heavy industry base can be established in Suiyuan again, the risk will be much smaller. Other than that. The Jilin Army could also use Suiyuan as a base and expand to the northwest.

"The envoy of the Mongolian Frontier?" Yang Du frowned. If Wu Haoxuan's request is agreed, wouldn't it be handed over to Wu Xingquan and his son the entire northern China beyond the Great Wall? Although, Mongolia is originally a vast and sparsely populated barren area. However, if such a large piece of land is handed over to Wu Xingquan and his son, the senior officials of the Beiyang government will definitely oppose it.

"Young Marshal, I will tell the Prime Minister. As for whether the Prime Minister will agree, I can't decide. Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded, and then continued to make demands: "Third, the Beiyang government will make compensation for this incident and guarantee that similar incidents will not occur in the future. As for the amount of compensation, let's set it at 100 million oceans. ”

"100 million oceans?" Yang Du was stunned for a moment. The annual tax revenue of the entire Beiyang government is only about this amount. Coupled with huge expenses, where will the Beiyang government get 100 million oceans to the Jilin Army?

"Yes, Brother Wanzi. 100 million oceans, not one less. If the Beiyang government does not give it, then the Jilin Army will have to take it by itself. When the time comes, we'll take more. Wu Haoxuan said. Rather than letting the Beiyang government use these people's fat and ointment to expand its armaments and war, it is better to let the Jilin Army develop industry and prepare for a strong China.

"Young marshal, do you have any other requirements? Just say it. Yang Du said with a wry smile. He knew that the Beiyang government would not agree to such harsh conditions.

"Fourth, the caravan from the northeast entering the Guannai must not be stopped by the Beiyang government without reason. As for taxes, they are the same as the customs duties paid by foreigners. Fifth, the Beiyang government must not prevent the Northeast from recruiting displaced people from the interior. Wu Haoxuan said.

The development of industry and commerce is a policy he has established. After the defeat of the Japanese, the main direction of development of Jilin will shift in this direction. In addition, the Northeast and Mongolia are vast and sparsely populated, and a lot of manpower is required to develop them. The total population of the entire Northeast plus Mongolia is only 30 million. Although there are already a lot, it is undoubtedly too few for the vast area. At the same time, due to natural disasters, there are many displaced people in Kannai. If these displaced people can be absorbed into the northeast and Mongolia, there is no doubt that the strength of the northeast can be further strengthened.

"Young Marshal, I know your request, and I will inform the Prime Minister." Yang Du said. He knew that it was almost impossible for Yuan Datou to accept these conditions.

"Brother Huizi, please tell Yuan Datou. If Yuan Datou refuses these conditions, then the Jilin Army will march towards Yanjing City. Wu Haoxuan said.

"Young marshal, why are you so aggressive?" Yang Du said with a bitter face.

"Brother Huizi, it's not that we are aggressive, but Yuan Datou is self-inflicted. Okay, Brother Wanzi, let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about the rest. Wu Haoxuan said.

Yang Du nodded, he was also very curious, he and Wu Haoxuan had never met, why Wu Haoxuan was so enthusiastic about him, and what else did he want to talk to him. After all, from the conversation with Wu Haoxuan, he also felt that although this young marshal was young, he was by no means a thing in the pool. Wu Xingquan may not be very good, but this son is undoubtedly a very outstanding figure.

Yang Du even thought about whether it would be a good thing for China if one day the Jilin Army took over the center and replaced the Beiyang government. After all, from the current point of view, Yuan Datou doesn't look like a person who can revitalize China no matter how he looks at it!

"Brother Huizi, what do you think of the Jilin Army?" Wu Haoxuan asked.

Yang Du's heart moved, he was originally an extremely shrewd person, Wu Haoxuan's words made him think of something. It's just that he still can't be sure.

"Young Marshal, the Jilin Army is definitely a first-class strong army in the world. At least at home, there is no army that can be compared. Yang Du told the truth.

"So, Brother Huizi, do you think that my Jilin Army will be able to enter the center one day?" Wu Haoxuan continued to ask.

"This, Yang Du doesn't dare to say anything." Yang Du did not answer positively. However, in his opinion, if the Jilin Army continues to be so strong, it may not be impossible to become the center in the future.

"Brother Wanzi, I also came back from studying in the United States. Living abroad for several years has made me see the strength of the world powers, but also the weakness of China. China, which has a splendid civilization of thousands of years, has become a fat meat for all countries to slaughter in modern times, which is really sad. Therefore, I have long made a grand wish, hoping that one day I can lead China to become strong and become a real world power, so that China will no longer be bullied by foreign powers, and all Chinese will be able to hold their heads high in the world and will no longer be bullied. Wu Haoxuan said sincerely.

Yang Du's eyes when he looked at Wu Haoxuan gradually changed. Although, he didn't know why Wu Haoxuan said this. However, he could feel Wu Haoxuan's sincere determination to fight for the country and the nation to become strong.

"Brother Huizi, although, the Jilin Army is very strong. It is already not lost to the Japanese Army. However, our foundation is weak, especially in terms of human resources. I hope that Brother Wan Zi can join us and do a great career with us. Wu Haoxuan solemnly sent out an invitation. (To be continued......)
