The war that broke out between Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge directly caused turmoil in the northeast. The Northeast, which has just been stable for a year, has once again entered the midst of war. Yuan Datou's Beiyang government pretended to issue an order demanding a truce between Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge. However, whether it was Zhang Yuting or Feng Linge, they ignored Yuan Datou.

Isn't even the Beiyang government itself preparing for war? Of the twelve towns of the Beiyang Army, except for two towns that remained in the north, the other ten towns had already moved south, preparing to attack Duanfang, the governor of Liangjiang, and Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang. Under such circumstances, he wished that the Northeast would be in chaos. A war-torn northeast is no longer in place, and it can't affect him.

Even, the reason why Zhang Yuting attacked Feng Linge was also instigated by Yuan Datou's Beiyang government. The Beiyang government made a lot of promises to Zhang Yuting, and gave millions of oceans, which made Zhang Yuting attack without fear.

Judging from the current battle situation, Zhang Yuting has the advantage. In just a few days, Feng Linge lost more than half. Even the elite Mongol cavalry abandoned him. It can be seen that the remaining more than 10,000 people are destined to be unable to resist for long.

The general trend ahead has been decided, Zhang Yuting returned to Shengjing City, leaving Yang Tingyu to fight alone in front. The reason why Zhang Yuting hurried back to Shengjing City was also the reason why he went back to the town. He was about to defeat Feng Linge, and it was foreseeable that if Wu Xingquan's father and son were to launch an attack on Fengtian, it would be very soon. After all, once Feng Linge was completely defeated, if Wu Xingquan's father and son sent troops again, they would have to face the main force of the Feng army.

Even so, the strength of the Jilin Army is very strong. But Fengjun is not a vegetarian either. Coupled with the support of the Japanese, Zhang Yuting fully believed that once the war with the Jilin Army began, the victor would be his.

Of course, if this war can be avoided, it is undoubtedly the best, after swallowing the Rehe, the Feng army needs to digest the territory. In addition, after the fierce battle, the Feng army is also very tired, and if it does not rest, its combat effectiveness will drop a lot, and I am afraid that it will not be able to resist the attack of the Jilin army. For this reason, Zhang Yuting specially sent someone to Jilin to contact Wu Xingquan and inform Wu Xingquan's father and son that the war between him and Feng Linge was nothing more than a personal feud between them. There can be a good relationship between Fengtian and Jilin, and he is not willing to be enemies of Wu Xingquan's father and son.

At the same time, Zhang Yuting also contacted the Japanese. Since he had already boarded the Japanese ship, he naturally could not get off the ship again. What's more, the support of the Japanese is important at this time. If he can rely on the support of the Japanese to tide over this difficulty, then his power will be guaranteed. Once he was given time to develop, it would not be impossible to defeat Wu Xingquan's father and son even without the help of the Japanese.

In Zhang Yuting's study, Zhang Yuting and Goto Xinping, the president of the Manchurian Railway, had another secret meeting.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency, it seems that your army has conquered Chengde and completely defeated Feng Linge, and it is just around the corner. This war will be over in a few days at most. Shinhei Goto smiled. Zhang Yuting took the initiative to contact him, which is undoubtedly a good thing for Japan. This means that Zhang Yuting has accepted his status as a Japanese agent.

"Your Excellency, although Feng Linge is about to be defeated. But the real enemy is not him. It is Wu Xingquan's father and son, who are eyeing each other. The Jilin Army was in urgent deployment during this time, and the northern border was full of Jilin Army. If they attack, there's no way I'm going to stop it. Zhang Yuting shook his head. Defeating Feng Linge was expected. What's more, the bigger crisis comes from the Jilin Army in the north. Now, the main forces of the Feng army are in Rehe, and in the north of Shengjing City and Mukden, there are only two independent brigades. Once the 100,000 troops of the Jilin Army attacked Mukden, the Feng army would not be able to resist it at all.

"Your Excellency, you can rest assured of this. The Empire's railway garrison brigade has entered a state of combat readiness. The road from Jilin to Mukden was blocked by us in the name of exercises. As long as Wu Xingquan's father and son are not determined to be enemies of the empire. Then, they will not pose a threat to Mukden. After the Feng army pacified Rehe, Wu Xingquan's father and son naturally lost the best opportunity. Goto Shinpei said nonchalantly. He did not believe that Wu Xingquan and his son would dare to start a war with Japan. Therefore, the blockade of the communication line by the Japanese railway garrison brigade was enough to make the Jilin Army helpless. As long as Wu Xingquan's father and son were not kicked in the head by a donkey, they would have made the right choice.

It's just that Zhang Yuting is still a little worried. After all, there are only a few thousand railway garrison brigades in Japan! The strength of the Jilin Army is more than 100,000. If the Jilin Army really launched an attack, how could the Japanese resist the thousands of men? When the time comes, not only the Japanese will be unlucky, but he will also be unlucky!

"Your Excellency President, what if Wu Xingquan's father and son really attack? So what do we do? I know their father and son very well, and those two fathers and sons are stubborn, and if they recognize something, ten cows can't drag it back. Zhang Yuting asked.

Goto Shinpei's face suddenly became stern, what Zhang Yuting said was undoubtedly the worst situation.

"Your Excellency, if Wu Xingquan's father and son really dare to attack, it will undoubtedly be a war against the Great Japanese Empire. Even in the early stages of the war, they would have the upper hand and even occupy the northern part of Mukden. However, the Japanese Empire would not let them continue to behave in a reckless manner. The Imperial 2nd Division stationed in Kwantung Prefecture and the 3rd and 10th Divisions stationed in Korea were to be involved in the attack on them. With the addition of three Imperial Army divisions, it was enough to sweep away the Jilin Army. When the time comes, His Excellency can even take over the entire Northeast in one fell swoop. Goto Shinpei said domineeringly. Before Lao Maozi did not regain his strength, the Japanese were the overlords of the Northeast.

Although the Japanese garrison in the northeast is not large, plus the two divisions of the Korean army, before mobilization, the total strength is only 40,000 or 50,000. But once the mobilization is complete, the total number of troops will reach more than 70,000. With the strength of more than 70,000 elite Japanese troops, defeating the rabble of Wu Xingquan's father and son should not be a problem at all.

Zhang Yuting nodded, and with Goto Shinpei's assurance, he was relieved. Even, he faintly hoped that Wu Xingquan's father and son would really attack the Japanese army without knowing what to do. In this way, he will be able to unify the entire Northeast in the shortest possible time and become a veritable king of the Northeast.

Jilin, in the Overseer's Mansion, Wu Xingquan and his son also convened a cadre of senior generals of the Jilin Army to prepare for the dispatch of troops.

The commanders of the 12 infantry divisions of the Jilin Army gathered together, making the stars shine in the conference room. In addition to the previous four infantry divisions, the commander of the newly built 4th Infantry Division was Shi Tianchuan, who was originally the chief of staff of the instructor. The commander of the 5th Infantry Division was Shi Qingshan, who was originally the commander of the 2nd Division. The commander of the 6th Infantry Division was Zhao Tianlong, who was originally the chief of staff of the 3rd Infantry Division. The commander of the 7th Infantry Division was Duan Tianwei, who was originally a regimental commander of the instructor. The commander of the 8th Infantry Division was Qiao Hanzhang, who was originally a regimental commander of the 1st Division. The commander of the 9th Infantry Division was Zhang Haipeng, who was originally a regimental commander of the 2nd Division. The commander of the 10th Division, Ji Jinchun, was originally the chief of staff of the 1st Division. The commander of the 11th Division was Xu Lanzhou, who was originally the chief of staff of the 2nd Division.

Each of the 12 infantry divisions has a large strength of 18,000 people, and the entire Jilin Army has almost 220,000 troops. In addition, Wu Haoxuan's heavy artillery brigade was also organized. Artillery and artillery are already in place. It's just that because the training time is still shallow, the combat effectiveness has not yet been fully brought into play.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the war between Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge has reached the most critical moment. From the current point of view, Zhang Yuting has gained an absolute advantage. Feng Linge's remaining army had been suppressed in Chengde. It is estimated that it will not last long. This is undoubtedly a good thing for us in Jilin. The main force of Zhang Yuting's army was concentrated in Rehe, and there were only more than 10,000 troops left behind in Fengtian. If our Jilin Army moves south, it will certainly be able to capture Mukden in one fell swoop. Wu Xingquan said to the generals under his command with a smile on his face.

Although, to the two brothers, it made him feel a little uncomfortable. However, he also knew that this was undoubtedly the most appropriate opportunity. If you miss it, I'm afraid you won't have such a good opportunity again.

The generals below were also smiling one by one. If Wu Xingquan can dominate the entire Northeast, won't they also rise to the top?

"Now, it's up to Haoxuan to announce the battle plan." Wu Xingquan said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle is about our future. Therefore, you must be careful in this battle. Our enemies are not only Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge, but also the Japanese. The Japanese will not watch us unify the entire northeast, and they will certainly interfere with us. Therefore, we need to unify the Northeast in the shortest possible time, and then prepare for confrontation with the Japanese. Wu Haoxuan said with a stern face.

The smiles on the faces of the generals also disappeared, and they still had some fear in their hearts when they were going to fight the Japanese.

"Next, I announce the specific battle plan. The 1st Infantry Division, which attacked Mukden from Tonghua, aimed at Liaoyang and Anshan. The 2nd Division attacked from the mouth of the Meihe River, aiming directly at Shengjing. The 4th Division attacked Tieling from Liaoyuan, and the 5th Division attacked Tieling from Siping. "Among the first batch of troops, there were as many as four infantry divisions, more than 73,000 people.
