Chapter 35: The War Begins

The Northeast group walked out of this place together behind Yang Xiaolin, and no one looked back and said anything. Including Zou Rong, who has always liked to explain to Sun Wen, this time he went so without hesitation.

The reporters were stunned, and Yang Dagui declared war to the Russians with a very tough attitude! After the shock, they immediately came back to their senses, and many people rushed out of the room of the press conference at once, following Yang Xiaolin's footsteps to interview him, chasing after him and asking questions.

The scene of the press conference, which was still overcrowded just now, suddenly became deserted, Yuan Shikai originally planned to announce his inauguration as the president of the Republic of China, but now he also felt that it was boring to continue to talk about it, and he sat there motionless with a blue face, and he was not angry!

If you want to fight, you can fight, but if you fight yours, I can't negotiate mine? That guy is playing with himself now! He stepped on his shoulder and crawled out of the pit that Sa Daoyi had dug for him!

That's it! Isn't it okay to help your son-in-law yourself? But he actually said that he was a bent knee, a flattering person! How could he do that!

Lao Yuan is really angry! It's okay if you call him a bitch, but don't push his archway, he cares about reputation! Sitting there, my heart was a mess.

At this time, Sun Wen also came back to his senses, bowed his head and asked: "Yuan Gong, look at this press conference,"

Before he finished his words, Lao Yuan's body leaned back, his eyes closed, and he said softly: "Yang Dagui has left, Mr. Sun Wen, when are you going to leave?" ”

Sun Wen was stunned, and then he understood what Yuan Shikai meant. Yuan Shikai no longer talked about the united front with him, and the reunification with him was originally because Yuan Shikai didn't want to have a war with the Russians and wanted to have more capital in politics. Now that Yang Xiaolin has forcefully announced a war against the Russians, the Beiyang Army does not dare to go to the troubled waters of Mongolia.

If Lao Yuan unifies the north and the south, he must make a statement on the Mongolian problem and the war in the northeast, and this bitch is determined to use the south to attract everyone's attention in order to avoid these two problems.

That's right. Don't talk about reunification, Sun Wen can't dissolve the southern government right now, and the war must be fought.

Mr. Sun Wen adjusted his breathing, said nothing, picked up the civilization hat placed on the table, put it on his head, and turned around and left here.

Since there is no surrender left, then there is nothing to consider, if you want to take me under the knife, come here.

Yang's speech at the press conference was eventually reported the next day.

Mr. Sa Daoyi originally wanted to block Yang Xiaolin's information as before, but this time he didn't do it. Foreigners' newspapers were still hesitant when they received notices from the consulates of various countries, but some Chinese newspapers no longer cared about Mr. Sadaoyi's strategy.

The national feelings of the Chinese have been hurt again. In this again, Yang Fighting Ghost stood up, and we ordinary people don't care whether Yang Fighting Ghost is a beast or not, at least his speech makes Chinese feel comfortable listening to it!

After the Chinese newspapers reported truthfully, there was no need for the foreigners' newspapers to conceal it. Mr. Sa Daoyi found that the black pot he prepared for Yang Xiaolin was thrown off by this beast!

This made him very angry!

"Mr. Yue Leisar, have you seen the newspaper? I'm honest with you, and I'm very angry right now. You Russians have harmed me for your own sake, and you have given that beast a reason to fight, and this has made us very good at the country. A lot of people's efforts have been in vain. ”

At the meeting of the ministers, Sa Daoyi's face was very ugly, staring at Yue Leisar, who was sitting opposite him, if it wasn't for the need to maintain his demeanor, Sa Daoyi would punch this polar bear in the face!

Mr. Yue Resal said very easily: "I didn't expect things to turn out like this. We just want to help those people in the Qing Dynasty, maybe the Chinese misunderstood what we meant. ”

Several ministers around him threw admiring glances at Yue Leisar, and the Russians could still sit here so cleanly when things were like this, and only a seasoned politician like Yue Leisar could treat everyone as if they were blind and say such nonsense.

Sa Daoyi didn't say anything more: "In that case, let's discuss the war against that beast in the Northeast." The beast had declared war on the Russian army. Although he was still on the train, we received news that three divisions of the Volunteer Army had left for Jinzhou this morning, led by their deputy commander Zhang Zuolin. It seems that their main combat target is Mongolia, Mr. Yueresar, I wonder when your Russian troops plan to attack? ”

Sa Daoyi doesn't even think about the so-called Mongolian affairs now. Although Yuan Shikai also found him last night, hoping to persuade the British to stand up and organize the liliang of the international community to put pressure on the Russians.

However, Sa Daoyi believes that he has given Yuan Shikai the greatest help in the Mongolian incident. It is impossible to clash for the sake of China and the Russians, and that is not in the interests of Britain. But the Russians bit too much in this bite, and the British looked a little red-eyed.

Sa Daoyi made it clear that they could support Yuan Shikai and the Russians in the war, what else? During the Russo-Japanese War, the British supported the Japanese. Do you expect us to take Mongolia back and deliver it to you?

Sa Daoyi despised Yuan Shikai a little in his heart, if this guy launched a war against Russia according to his own arrangement, it would be in the best interest of Britain. In Europe, Britain will increase its bargaining chips with Russia, and that beast will not have a chance to carry the banner!

But Lao Yuan didn't have that courage.

Having said that, if Yuan Shikai is really as tough as Yang Dagui, the British government will not support him. Therefore, the Mongolian problem has actually been turned over in Sa Daoyi's heart. He now has to concentrate on filling the hole that the Russians have stabbed him, and even if he does not achieve the predetermined goal politically, the beast must be killed!

Mr. Yue Resal sat up straight: "We have already got a deal to deal with on the Russian side, and we plan to ignore him for the time being for the volunteers who invaded Mongolia. The Russian army of 200,000 in Heilongjiang is ready, and we can encircle the main force of 60,000 volunteers there at any time and annihilate them! ”

Sa Daoyi sneered: "So you don't want us to help?" ”

Yue Leisal hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, Mr. Sadaoyi, you misunderstood what I meant. In terms of military operations, our Russian army will cooperate with friendly forces in combat, and we also hope that friendly forces can quickly intervene in the battlefield. Reduce the losses of our Russian troops. ”

The Russians and the Volunteers were not the first to fight, and they had already learned the tenacity of the Volunteers' defense, especially the battle between Akpolier and Houma Town, where 50,000 Russian soldiers could not break through in the face of the defense of a regiment of the Volunteers, and the bullets fired from under the rubble have not been forgotten to this day.

It was that battle that brought peace between the Russians and the volunteers for several years, and Lao Maozi did not dare to act rashly until now.

The commander of the 11th Division in the Heilongjiang region, the second pole, was the battalion commander who was defending Houma Town at that time, and he was now not a regiment, but an army of nearly 60,000 people! Their hands are no longer the backward weapons they used to be, and the Volunteers are even stronger than the Russian troops in terms of firepower in addition to artillery. They're not just confined to a small town, either. Their positions spanning more than a dozen kilometers can support each other.

Therefore, although the Russians have concentrated 200,000 troops, they will never say that they have done it themselves.

Abu Taro immediately stood up: "Mr. Sadaoyi, our Japanese side has also gone through a detailed investigation, the strength of the Volunteer Army in Liaoxi is quite weak, after the troops of Jinzhou enter Mongolia, our landing will become very easy, our Japanese commander believes after research that if the Russian army can besiege the main force of the Volunteer Army, we can capture the entire Liaoxi within a week." Kill Liaoping within half a month, and encircle Liaoping! Cut off the connection between the two main forces of the Volunteers, and eat them one by one. ”

Sa Daoyi looked at the two of them, and the Japanese took the initiative to ask to attack Liaoping? At this time, he suddenly understood that for the past two days, the Japanese did not react to the Russians swallowing the whole of Mongolia. It turned out that the Russians allowed the Japanese to enter the Liaodong region.

Obviously. They had already divided the cake on their backs.

Sa Daoyi's head shook slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, all the British wanted was to kill Yang Dagui, if the Russians and the Japanese had already divided the interests. Then it's a good thing that there won't be any conflict afterwards. As for the Chinese side will definitely protest, Yuan Shikai may also ask himself to get Britain to intervene. Then let's negotiate and negotiate, and then we will talk about the situation.

"Excellent! Now that the two have come to an agreement. Then I guess the war can begin. The Russian army attacked first at Heilongjiang, and the Japanese army landed in Dalian to flank Yang Dagui's rear. Our coalition will arrive in Shanghai in a week's time, and we will make appropriate repairs and then leave for Dalian to participate in the battle. I would like to reiterate that Major General Hamilton has the right to coordinate the forces of the nations on the battlefield. ”

A smile appeared on Yue Leisar's face, and Sa Daoyi did not say any more about the Mongolian issue, which meant that he acquiesced in the Russian interference in Mongolia, and the rest of the matter was much easier. Since the British gave face in this way, the Russians also knew that they had to give face to the British now.

Anyway, both sides are trading in China's interests, and after getting Mongolia, Russia should sell some strength to help the British kill Yang Dagui! That beast really should be killed, he actually declared war on Russia!

Yue Resar took out a cigar from his bosom and lit it: "Mr. Sadaoyi, on behalf of the Russian army, I would like to tell you that we will listen carefully to the opinions of the British army on the battlefield. ”

Sa Daoyi nodded: "Haode, we can take military action now, but we still need to do something to calm the anger of the Chinese against us, Yuan Shikai has now made it clear that he will not intervene in this war, I think we can find Sun Wen and let him make a statement in support of us, on the terms, we will provide him with appropriate help so that he can persevere." I don't think until the Northeast is resolved, everyone doesn't want to see the reunification of China, right? ”

Yoko-sama was nodding their heads one by one. Whether they support Yuan Shikai or Sun Wen, they are all for the expansion of their country's interests in China. They need to grasp the situation in China, so in the case of being involved in Yang beating ghosts, the best way is to let Yuan Shikai and Sun Wen kill no one.

Abe Taro immediately said: "It is more appropriate for us Japanese to come forward in this matter, we have been in contact with Sun Wen's southern government, and now his situation is very bad, put a little pressure on him, he will agree." ”

Sa Daoyi said: "The pressure is very simple, those revolutionary ranks in the south are now very chaotic, I think the coalition forces will put a few shots by the way when they are reorganizing in Shanghai, and it will be enough for the warships to fire a few shots." Gentlemen, I can now announce here that the military campaign to kill that beast has begun. (To be continued......)
