Feng Yuxiang performed prominently in the battle against Zhang Xun, and then led his subordinates to be stationed in the Gyeonggi area, but he was not considered a close faction in Beiyang, and he was constantly deducted from military salaries, especially after Lao Duan decided to participate in the war, he wholeheartedly organized and trained the participating army, and the other shili were suppressed.

Feng Yuxiang naturally felt dissatisfied, at this time, Lao Zhang keenly found the opportunity, took the initiative to contact Feng Yuxiang, to provide him with weapons and funds, originally Lao Zhang wanted to use him as a shadow, stay in the Beijing and Tianjin area, spy on the situation, but did not expect the opportunity to enter the Central Plains so soon appeared, in order to quickly solve the problem, Lao Zhang decided to use such a shadow.

"Feng Huanzhang, this anti-bone boy, where do I treat him with great grace, how dare this bastard collude with Zhang Zuolin, does he want to sell Beijing and Tianjin to Fengjun?"

Lao Duan held Feng Yuxiang's power in his hand, and he jumped like thunder, he couldn't help but be angry, Feng Yuxiang's department was in the north of the capital, and a charge could kill him right under his nose. Zhang Zuolin's hand was also very ruthless, hitting Duan Qirui's vital point, and Xiao Xu was also sad on the side.

"Zhi Weng, now there are two divisions of the participating army in Gyeonggi, although the training has not yet been completed, but it also has the power of a battle, I will now command the participating army to eliminate Feng Yuxiang, the anti-bone boy!"

This so-called army participating in the war is an army trained with the support of the Japanese, nominally used to participate in World War I, but in fact it is Duan Qirui's personal guard Liliang. In the original history, there were a total of three divisions, which later became the main force of Xu Shuzheng's border guards.

However, due to the appearance of Zhang Tinglan in this time and space, Xiyuan's loan was ruined, and Lao Duan was forced to promise not to sign a secret agreement with the Japanese and not to betray the interests of the three eastern provinces. Lao Duan couldn't get enough loans, so the training of the army participating in the war was delayed a lot, and only two divisions were trained. Moreover, there is a lack of personnel, and there is a lot of lack of ordnance.

But this is already a little liliang of Duan Qirui Zuihou, and he can only pin his hopes on these two divisions, Lao Duan immediately agreed to let Xu Shuzheng lead the troops to deal with Feng Yuxiang, and Xiao Xu took the order and went to mobilize the army.

And at this time, in the capital, the dark tide is surging, Liang Qichao, Tang Hualong and other shili who have fallen into the section have been running non-stop, although these people have no military power in their hands. But all hands and eyes are open to the sky, and the activity energy is extremely strong.

Tang Hualong suddenly took a note, hurriedly found Liang Qichao, and said excitedly as soon as he saw Tang Hualong: "Ren Gong, Lao Duan signed a secret agreement with the Japanese. Promised the 21st Article, and transferred the power of Shandong to the Japanese! ”

Liang Qichao also hurriedly took the note. Looked and looked. Then he asked, "Is the information reliable?" ”

"Of course it's reliable, this was told to me by a senator from the Prime Minister's Office, and the Japanese Minister Kohata Yukichi ran to the Prime Minister's Office, and they talked for a long time, and Kohata came out beamingly, and this is what happened."

Liang Qichao finally showed a smile on his face: "Duan Qirui is looking for death." Originally, we accused him of betraying the country and let him step down, but now that Lao Duan has done the matter by himself, then we can't be blamed for being polite. ”

"Ren Gong. This time, Lao Duan was overthrown, Feng Zhang took a big advantage, if he didn't offer a sufficient price, we wouldn't agree! ”

"Zhang Yuting is a person, he was born recklessly, but he is very assertive in his heart, he wrote me a secret letter, this time he entered the customs one is not the president, the other is not the prime minister, just want to be the army chief, the position of president is re-appointed by Li Yuanhong, I take over as the premier, and Brother Tang, you are the speaker, let's take care of each other, cooperate with each other!"

When Tang Hualong heard this, his face also showed joy, and he said with a smile: "Zhang Zuolin is still very sensible, so let's sell his strength for him!" ”

After the two of them discussed, they mobilized their subordinates, and Liang Qichao also waved a large pen, and soon a freshly baked article was written.

"Premier Duan forgot his ancestors and betrayed Shandong!"

"The land of saints, the fall of the sun!

"If the prime minister betrays the country, the country will not be a country!"

All kinds of newspapers quickly flooded all parts of Beijing and Tianjin, and the students, who had been making a lot of noise, immediately became even more boiling after getting the news, and thousands of people formed a large group and rushed to the prime minister's office. Not only these ordinary people, but even some officers close to Duan Qirui also asked Lao Duan to know whether Duan Qirui had signed such a traitorous agreement.

In the face of the monstrous voice of questioning, Duan Qirui was dumbfounded at this moment, he never expected this situation to occur, Lao Duan still wanted to deny it desperately, but the people of the world no longer believed him, it was rumored earlier, and now he has come up with real evidence, who will believe it if he wants to deny it.

In fact, this is also Duan Qirui's confusion, the original twenty-one things that were so secret could not be kept secret, and the current Beiyang government has no secrets at all, he signed an agreement, the aid did not wait, the first thing to wait for is big trouble!

Just when Lao Duan was anxious, the war in the Beijing and Tianjin areas also burned, Xu Shuzheng mobilized his subordinates to storm Feng Yuxiang's department, hoping to pull out the nail first, but Feng Yuxiang was not easy to deal with, especially Lao Zhang had the heart to support him, and Feng Jun secretly provided Feng Yuxiang with a large number of arms.

There are still difficulties in heavy artillery, but mortars and heavy machine guns are a lot, Feng Yuxiang also has a fierce energy, personally commanding the troops to fight on the front line, although Xu Shuzheng has a strength advantage, but he can't take Feng Yuxiang for a while.

On the other hand, after Guo Songling led the front of the Feng army to seize Shanhaiguan, he immediately divided into two parts, one part took a train, along the Beijing-Feng railway, and went straight to Tianjin, and then attacked Beijing, and he sent 1,500 cavalry to the south directly to attack Jingbei.

In fact, Guo Songling's troops are limited, and it is very dangerous to divide troops in this way, but at this time, public opinion is in an uproar, and the garrisons everywhere are unwilling to directly confront the Feng army, and want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight to see how Lao Duan ends.

In this way, Guo Songling's Jihua succeeded, and the two teams of Feng troops advanced rapidly, and at the same time, Zhang Xueliang commanded the air force to dispatch and airdropped a large number of leaflets to Beijing to break the morale of the army. Under this sudden blow, the defenders in the area of Beijing and Tianjin were all in chaos, and the Feng army actually advanced towards the Guannai at an unprecedented speed, and there was a situation where the world would be decided by a war.

Zhang Zuolin, who was still in Fengtian and had not moved, showed a full smug look on his face, and said with a smile: "My old Zhang hasn't done his best yet, Duan Qirui can't stand it." The Tiger of the North Ocean has a false name and is vulnerable! ”

Saying that, Lao Zhang was still smiling, and glanced at Zhang Tinglan, Lao Zhang still had a hint of provocation, clearly saying that Jiang was still old and spicy!

"The marshal is far-sighted, congratulations to the marshal for getting off to a good start, but Han Qing and they only have one division's strength, which is still too thin, and they must send reinforcements."

"Well, that's a good point." Lao Zhang smiled: "It's not just about sending reinforcements. I, Lao Zhang, also want to personally lead the army and enter the city of Beijing! ”

After Lao Zhang finished speaking, he stood up and said to his subordinates: "Telegraph to Zhang Jinghui and ask him to lead his troops along the Jingfeng Railway and enter Tianjin as soon as possible." I entered Tianjin first, and I appointed him as the special mayor of Tianjin! ”

Tianjin is the gateway to the north. The economy and trade are developed. It is almost comparable to Shanghai, and a mayor is comparable to the governor of a province. At this time, Zhang Jinghui was on the way to Shanhaiguan, and after receiving the order, he immediately accelerated the speed of the army, and Tofu Zhang also took out the strength of a 100-meter sprint, desperately killing in the pass.

Later, Lao Zhang sent two more telegrams in succession. Let Ji Jinchun and Kan Chaoxi also lead troops into the pass in batches, and Lao Zhang ordered Sun Liechen to send troops from Rehe to attack the Zhangjiakou area and support the main attack force from the flank.

After these armies were sent out. Lao Zhang was also complacent, and said to Wu Junsheng and Tang Yulin with a smile: "Two elder brothers, you all follow me to the south, let's take the army and occupy all the flowers and shijie in the Central Plains, and then you will all be the overseers of a province!" ”

"Thank you for the promotion!" Tang Yulin shook his big black head and said in a panic. In the past two years, he has been sitting on the cold bench, thinking that there is no chance to get ahead, but now he is actually expected to become an overseer, a provincial feudal official, Lao Tang is very happy.

After the order was delivered, the Feng army was fully mobilized, and Lao Zhang was officially ready to leave, and before leaving, Lao Zhang took Zhang Tinglan's hand.

"Humble words, no matter what time it is, Fengtian is the fundamental place, you must defend Fengtian well, and you must not make mistakes!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with Mukden, you have to be careful, the Japanese are too insidious, they haven't acted yet, maybe they will jump off the wall in a hurry, don't be careless."

Lao Zhang smiled and nodded: "I will pay attention, there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers around me, even if the little devil has the ability to penetrate the world, he can't help me, as long as the family is not chaotic, even if the customs are not smooth, he can't shake the foundation." ”

Lao Zhang was full of confidence, and he issued a declaration of entry into the customs, putting forward several political propositions of Fengjun, including the dismissal of Duan Qirui as prime minister; restored the legal system of the Republic of China and supported Li Yuanhong as president; North-South peace talks and joint nation-building; Abolish the secret treaty, fight to the death, and defend Qingdao!

All of these propositions cater to the demands of the people, and the reporters have shown unprecedented enthusiasm for Zhang Zuolin, seeing him as the best choice to save China's political situation.

After Lao Zhang made a declaration, he took Wu Junsheng and others to the south in the car, Zhang Tinglan saw Lao Zhang leave, and suddenly felt a little troubled in his heart, but he didn't know where there would be a problem. He can only warn himself that he is preconceived and always worries too much, maybe this time Lao Zhang's entry into the customs will be very smooth, and the Japanese will not have time to react at all.

Zhang Tinglan also raised the level of military alert in Mukden, and closely monitored Manchurian and other places to prevent the Japanese from taking any sabotage actions, but unexpectedly, the Japanese behaved very honestly, without any abnormal movements, as if they were indifferent to the entry of Feng's army.

Zhang Tinglan's heart became more and more uneasy, and not long ago, in a secret mansion in Tianjin, several Japanese soldiers were walking back and forth, looking restless.

"Zhang Zuolin and his army are the biggest stumbling block to the empire's mainland policy, if this person is not eliminated, the empire will not be able to control Manchu and Mongolia, and it will not be able to conquer Asia, those old bureaucrats can't see this at all, they blindly connived at Zhang Zuolin, which caused the tail to be big, and we, the soldiers of the empire, want to reverse this mistake and kill Zhang Zuolin."

"Ishihara-kun, that's right, since the establishment of our Erye Society, we are going to become the sharpest sword of the Emperor Bixia, Zhang Zuolin, this cancer, we will remove it!"

"Kawamoto-kun, everything is entrusted to you, only success, not failure."

Daisaku Kawamoto nodded, walked out of the mansion quickly, and went straight to Shanhaiguan, where there were 300 Japanese garrisons, compared to the garrisons along the South Manchurian Railway, this number of troops was very rare, but it was precisely because of the scarcity that it would not attract the attention of all parties.

The Japanese have long had Jihua who assassinated Zhang Zuolin, but because Lao Zhang was well guarded, the Japanese were unwilling to bear the consequences of a complete falling out with the Feng army, so they kept dragging it out, but now, the Japanese can no longer drag it out, if Lao Zhang controls Beijing, it will be like a dragon entering the sea, and there will be no more chance.

Therefore, the Japanese government secretly instructed these young officers to assassinate Zhang Zuolin, and Daisaku Kawamoto rushed to Shanhaiguan as quickly as possible, where the Japanese intelligence agency had already transmitted the news of Zhang Zuolin's military column.

"Heben-kun, Zhang Zuolin's train will arrive at Shanhaiguan in five hours, and then it will be a good time for you to show your skills, please be sure to eliminate Zhang Zuolin and eliminate harm for the empire!" (To be continued......)
