Lin Yuan continued: "Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, over the past two years, I have made a lot of contributions, and there are many people who have offended, and there are even more people who are jealous of me, so there will definitely be gossip about me, and even bad words and slander against me, like today's Lord Yuan, who actually said that I have a heart of disobedience." ”

Emperor Guangxu was so hot by Lin Yuan's words that he said, "Actually, I didn't believe his words. ”

Lin Yuan said: "You don't believe him once he said, but what about twice? What about three times? You don't believe what he says alone, but what about ten? What about a hundred? Mingjun is not suspicious of employing people, but not suspicious people, do you understand? ”

Emperor Guangxu thought for a while and said, "Okay, I promise you." ”

Lin Yuan said: "Then I'll go back, I'm the Prime Minister and Minister of State Affairs, after I leave, there will definitely be people from various countries who will directly put pressure on you and make you agree to ****, you don't care about it, wait for my good news when the time comes, I will definitely put down this rebellion." ”

Emperor Guangxu asked, "Don't you need money and food?" ”

In fact, Lin Yuan really doesn't need it, first of all, the grain, the Northeast grain base has ushered in a bumper harvest, and the food is enough for the troops; The second is money, Lin Yuan used Zhang's Industrial Company to trade with foreigners, and transformed advanced military technology into civilian technology, sold a large number of products to foreigners, and earned a lot of income.

However, Lin Yuan didn't say this, because he knew very well: if the Qing court felt that he no longer needed the support of the Qing court, then the Qing court would feel that they couldn't control Lin Yuan at all, and they would do harm.

Lin Yuan then said: "You can transfer a batch of silver from the treasury to me, just send it to Fengtian, and you don't need anything else." ”

Emperor Guangxu agreed, Lin Yuan said goodbye, and he thought to himself as he walked: "It's time to march into Mongolia!" ”

Lin Yuan contacted Xiao Yingwu and learned that the troops had arrived in Beijing and were now on their way to Zhangjiakou in Beijing, so Lin Yuan went to Zhangjiakou to join the Seventh Division.

The operation of the entire railway is controlled by Lin Yuan, so Lin Yuan arrived in Zhangjiakou without much effort, as soon as he arrived at the railway station, his first reaction was: Why are there so few cars, more than 200 transport vehicles, only a dozen can be seen in the railway station, where are the others?

Lin Yuan found Xiao Yingwu and asked about his confusion, Xiao Yingwu explained: "Our other vehicles have gone to the outside of Zhangjiakou City, and here is the last batch, let's go out and meet the troops." ”

Xiao Yingwu took Lin Yuan to the outside of the train station, pointed to an off-road vehicle and said: "This is specially developed by Ge Lao for our command headquarters, there are forty-eight in total, there are advanced command systems on them, and they can also exchange information with drones in the sky." ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "With this thing, it will be much more convenient to command operations." Lin Yuan got into the command car and found the troops with Xiao Yingwu, the troops were outside a village outside the city, and the villagers had never seen a car, let alone the large and small main battle tanks and infantry fighting vehicles carried on the car, so they all watched curiously.

Xiao Yingwu asked Lin Yuan: "Should we hold a meeting with the commanders of each battalion and talk about the things we should pay attention to after entering Mongolia." ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Didn't you introduce it before?" ”

Xiao Yingwu said: "We have not made a special introduction, but what we have introduced is what we talk about in ordinary political work, such as caring for the masses, not taking a stitch from the masses, respecting the religious beliefs of Mongolian compatriots, and so on. ”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll say a few words, but there is no need to say it here, let's go to the car and say that the enemy does not have a radio tapping device, so there is no need for radio silence." ”

Xiao Yingwu nodded in agreement, and then set off with Lin Yuan, the truck quickly increased the speed to forty kilometers per hour, the convoy left the village outside Zhangjiakou City, and drove into the road to Kulun, walking, the scenery outside changed, no longer the golden wheat fields on the North China Plain, but the endless grasslands of the Mongolian Plateau.

Lin Yuan said on the radio: "We have now entered Mongolia, I want to talk about the purpose of our operation this time, everyone will have doubts when they hear my words, isn't our purpose of operation to go to Kulen to fight the separatists?" What else is there to say? Yes, this is exactly what we are fighting for, and I want to emphasize: who are the separatists? Who are our enemies? ”

"It is already clear to everyone that it was the Mongol Zhebuzun Danba who declared independence, and he was also the emperor of the newly formed Great Mongol Empire, but in our opinion, he should not be our enemy, let alone a separatist, and even if he really is, we must treat it as if he is not! Why do you say that? Because Jebuzundamba is the leader of the Mongolian Yellow Sect, he has a very broad mass base among Mongolian herdsmen. ”

"If we attack him as a separatist, then it will cause the resistance of ordinary Mongolian herdsmen, and if we lose the support of the people, we will fail, I believe everyone already knows the Tao, only Zhe does not respect Danba himself, he is absolutely incapable of confronting the Qing court, let alone the establishment of the Great Mongolian Empire, they dare to do this, it is entirely because of the support of the Russians behind them!"

"Therefore, we must take the Russians as our target, the Russians are rampant and domineering in the steppe, many herdsmen hate them, and we will undoubtedly get the support of the greatest number of Mongolian herdsmen when we attack the Russians, so we must clearly tell the herdsmen when we propagandize: Zhebuzundamba has been controlled by the Russians, we are here to save him, and our enemies are the Russians!"

Lin Yuan said: "Okay, that's all for my words, now let's go to Kulun at full speed and control Zhebuzun Danba!" Crush the separatist conspiracy of the Russians! ”

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he turned off the radio and ordered the troops to advance at full speed and rush to Yilin City before dusk. The convoy drove on the endless grassland, Lin Yuan opened the skylight, leaned his upper body out of the car, and looked at the scene in front of him: this is a typical sparse forest steppe on the Mongolian Plateau, and the trees grow into patches of woods, like small islands in the grassland ocean.

At this time, the grass has lost the emerald green in summer, but dyed with a layer of gold, the grass is blooming with colorful flowers, although the scenery is beautiful, Lin Yuan has no intention of appreciating it, he has been thinking about how to fight in this terrain, the height of the grass is less than thirty centimeters, it will definitely not be able to hide people, but the woods can hide ambushes.

There is no terrain that obstructs the line of sight on the entire grassland, and you can see the intersection of heaven and earth at a glance, this kind of terrain is extremely advantageous to you, according to your height and the curvature of the earth, the maximum distance you can see the enemy is about six kilometers, and the weapons of your troops are good at long-distance killing, so you are not afraid of the enemy's sneak attack at all.

Lin Yuan was thinking about it, and suddenly saw a group of black pressed things appear on the horizon in front of him, Lin Yuan raised the binoculars in his hand and took a look, only to find that it was a group of people on horseback, dressed and couldn't see clearly, these people were running all the way towards Lin Yuan's convoy, Lin Yuan's heart moved, and he thought: "It turns out that I made a serious mistake." ”
