Fengxian Jiangshan

As the saying goes, you have to be hard on your own to strike an iron. If you want to maintain a good situation under the eyes of the Japanese, you must have enough reserves. This time, Zhang Tinglan invested a total of more than 700 million yen in the attack on Japanese bonds. 300 million were seized, more than 200 million were borrowed from Daosheng Bank, and the rest were taken out of their own pockets.

Although he didn't earn much, he still has more than 200 million yuan, which adds up to 1000 million yuan. Zhang Tinglan has decided to exchange 500 million yuan of it for gold and store it in the official bank, plus the previous three tons of gold, as a reserve fund .If the Guanyin is a huge ship, these golds are the ballast stones, which can ensure that the ship will cut through the waves without capsizing.

Then Zhang Tinglan took out another 200 million to purchase a batch of machines from the United States, mainly textile machines, generators, and some prospecting equipment.In addition, Zhang Tinglan reached a cooperation agreement with the Americans. The United States provided the machines, and the Fengtian Machinery Bureau produced gun stocks and magazines for the United States.

The United States has long been the largest arsenal of Britain and France, with full production capacity and a continuous supply of arms.At this time, the labor force in the United States was very tight, and the cost was also high. Zhang Tinglan proposed to use Fengtian's cheap labor and resources to help the United States share some irrelevant things.

This proposal immediately attracted the interest of the United States. The nature of capital is to seek profit. Let Fengtian share a part of it, which can not only reduce the pressure and cost, but also extend its tentacles to the northeast.The Americans would not fail to see the benefits, and they were quick to opt for stocks and magazines.

There is no difficulty in these two things. Even if you can do it, you are still far away from the production of guns.And the Americans are only tentative.If Fengtian is worthy of support, the United States is even willing to support some munitions factories to produce military tents.Things like military uniforms are exported directly to Russia.

Zhang Tinglan got some soup from the United States, not just for a little profit, but the most realistic consideration was to provide cover for the bullet production line.Don't look at Zhang Tinglan putting the bullet production line under the nose of Nan Daying, it will be exposed after a long time, the Japanese's nose is too sharp.

Through cooperation with the United States, Zhang Tinglan can justifiably import a batch of American machines, set up a munitions factory, and then put the production line in.Those looted maintenance equipment can also be put in and used openly. Even if the Japanese see it, they can't say it was looted.

With the influence of the United States, Zhang Tinglan has more choices.Also more at ease, this time.Zhang Zuolin, who went to Fengtian and Jilin to suppress bandits, rushed back to Fengtian.

This month.Lao Zhang really worked hard. Wherever the army went, all the cottages, large and small, were wiped out, and thousands of bandits were killed.In addition, we also focused on investigating Russian nationals. Those who have legal status are easy to handle, but those who do not have.Lao Zhang was also polite and arrested them all.

There is a long border between China and Russia, especially in winter, Heilongjiang will freeze.The border residents on both sides can step on the thick ice to reach the other side's land, which is very easy.

Since Russia was involved in the First World War, the domestic burden has suddenly increased, conscription of troops and food, and increased taxes have made life more and more difficult for the Russians.As a result, a large number of Russian illegal immigrants crossed Heilongjiang and went to the Northeast to beg for a living. These Russians didn't know what to do, and they simply formed "crowds" large and small, making a living by looting houses.

After Lao Zhang led his army to the north, he focused on killing these Russian bandits.Moreover, Yang Yuting was still advising Lao Zhang on the sidelines, planting them from time to time.

So Lao Zhang reported to the press every now and then that some ammunition was found in a bandit den somewhere. After verification, it was found on the ranks of the robbed army. of Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese also sent personnel to check and found that what Lao Zhang said was indeed correct. These things were all on the military column. Gradually, the Japanese also believed that the military column might be robbed by Russian bandits.

After the case happened, the most suspicious object of the Japanese was actually the Russian government. According to the careful thinking of the Japanese, it was the Russian government's army who robbed the military columns after putting on makeup.As for the motive, maybe the Russians are poor and crazy, and they can save a lot of money for arms if they grab it.

It's just that Russia is Britain's most important ally now, and Britain will never allow Japan to attack Russia, so the Japanese can only vent their anger on China and want to get enough benefits from China. This is out-and-out bullying.

However, various evidences show that it is indeed possible that the Russian gangsters did it, and it has nothing to do with the Russian government. This made the Japanese so depressed that they vomited blood.

Zhang Zuolin was so fierce, so was Meng Enyuan in Jilin. Lao Yuan had sent orders several times, asking Meng Enyuan to conduct a thorough investigation to find out the real culprit.After a lot of trouble, Meng Enyuan found a secret Russian manor, where he found some machines for printing banknotes, as well as a lot of counterfeit currency, including rubles, Japanese yen, obligatory notes, auspicious notes, etc. .

In addition, [-] yen in real coins were found, and all the seals on them belonged to Zhengjin Bank, which proved that these yen were most likely listed by the robbed army.The Japanese were also alarmed, this was definitely a major discovery, and they immediately participated in the investigation.

The Japanese were more attentive than Meng Enyuan, they turned the manor upside down carefully.In the basement, many ashes from burning letters were found. Through the remaining papers, it was found that these were all Russian letters.

Now the Japanese were completely misled. They immediately reported to the Kanto Metropolitan Government and the Japanese government that there were signs that there was a powerful Russian opposition organization in the Northeast. These people did it.

Immediately afterwards, they robbed Japanese arms, first money and then guns. These guys have reached the level of lawlessness.The Japanese government immediately contacted Tsarist Russia and told the Russians about the situation.

Before that, the Russians were also skeptical about the real culprit. They knew that it was definitely not done. Even the Russians thought it was a bitter trick directed and performed by Japan.The purpose is to dominate the three eastern provinces while Russia has no time to look east. Isn't the 21 articles a while ago a manifestation of this ambition.

The goal was not achieved through negotiations, and the Japanese wanted to use violent means to seize it.The result was a so-called carjacking.Neither Russia nor Japan is a good thing. Their ideas are more sinister than the other, and they both regard each other as the real culprit.

These two robbers rarely considered the possibility of China's action. Perhaps in their eyes, China was just a piece of fat. In addition, they did not believe that the squadron could quickly wipe out a squadron of Japanese soldiers, although they were despised. , but this is still a good thing for Feng Jun.

The Tsarist Russian government did not expect that the opposition would be so powerful. They had money and arms.What will be done next, you can think of it with your toes, so the Russians are also tossing around in the Far East and Jilin, Heilongjiang.

The officials in the Far East have been rotten for a long time. There are countless peasant uprisings everywhere, and people who are dissatisfied with the government.There are too many, and there are chicken feathers all over the place from the beginning of the investigation.Russia has successively arrested a large number of political prisoners.

No matter how the Russians toss.Lao Zhang's banditry campaign was still very effective, at least he demonstrated the Chinese army's strong determination and ability to rectify law and order, and Japan's request for a large-scale increase in troops in the three eastern provinces went bankrupt.In addition, the evidence found by Lao Zhang strongly proves that the murderer is a Russian gangster.

China's responsibilities have been cleared away to the greatest extent, and direct confrontation between Japan and Russia has been avoided. This result is also what the United States, Britain and other countries are happy to see, so the two countries have adjusted their positions one after another.Warn Japan not to arbitrarily expand its interests in China, let alone the threat of force.

Both the United States and the United Kingdom understand the principle of slapping a sweet date in the face, in order to appease Japan.They promised to provide some loans and food to Japan to solve the rice riots in the country, and they were also willing to expand the purchase of arms. In particular, they helped persuade the Russians to continue to maintain the arms trade between the two countries.

Things have developed to this point, and the possibility of Japan using force against China has basically disappeared.Yuan Shikai finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally passed another level, but now, Lao Yuan has a clearer understanding of the dangerous situation in the three eastern provinces.

Sandwiched between the two powerhouses of Japan and Russia, the slightest turbulence will cause chaos in the world. In this kind of place, it is absolutely impossible to continue to use a fool like Duan Zhigui.

Old Yuan was unwilling in every possible way, and he wanted to set his sights on Zhang Zuolin. Perhaps only this guy with a beard was able to deal with various situations and keep the Northeast safe, but Lao Yuan still had some reconciliation.

At this time, Master Zhang returned to Fengtian with his whole body full of Zhengchen. Lao Zhang didn't care about fighting outside these days, but he read newspapers every day and sent telegrams to Zhang Tinglan to understand the situation. As the commander of one side, Lao Zhang accepted The pressure is actually greater than that of Zhang Tinglan.

In the first few days, Lao Zhang could hardly sleep, his mouth was blistered, and his eyes were always red.Even Yang Yuting is no exception, although Zhang Tinglan's swearing guarantee can turn the tide, disrupt the Japanese government, and ease the pressure on China.

But Zhang Zuolin really had no idea. After all, in their view, compared with Japan, Zhang Tinglan was even more disproportionate than ants and elephants.It's just that there is no other way, but to let Zhang Tinglan toss around and treat a dead horse like a living horse doctor.

If there is a little hope, we must try our best to fight for it. We can't just watch Japan massively deploy troops to the northeast and turn this fertile black land into their colony.As a result, in just one month, the prosperous Japan was beaten back to its original form, and the whole country fell into chaos.

Zhang Zuolin's eyeballs almost fell out after receiving the news of rice riots in Japan, and Yang Yuting was also inexplicably shocked. Such a powerful Japan was tricked by a young man under the age of 20 and directly ripped off his underwear.

What a strategy!What a calculation!

Yang Yuting prides himself on being resourceful and decisive, but compared to Zhang Tinglan turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain, and playing with Japan, Russia and other powers between applause, he is still far behind. This little Zhuge is completely convinced, and even has a A trace of fear, such a person can only be a friend, absolutely not an enemy!

Lao Zhang was also completely relaxed, he dealt with the Russian bandits with peace of mind, and then returned to Fengtian with his victorious master, the Dama Jindao, flaunting his might.This time Lao Zhang really made great achievements, and Duan Zhigui even went out of the city to greet him.

Lao Zhang was still extremely humble, respectful and respectful to Duan Zhigui, he didn't ask for credit, and he didn't complain, he even took the initiative to give the credit to Duan Zhigui, saying that it was due to Duan Zhigui's leadership, His Royal Highness was also very satisfied.

However, when Lao Zhang returned to the Marshal's Mansion, he immediately summoned his old brothers, and Zhang Tinglan was also called. After this period of time, Zhang Tinglan's status in Lao Zhang's heart also rose sharply, becoming a real right-hand man.

"Ting Lan, you have worked hard during this time. After doing such a big thing, I think you should be given an official status. When you go to the Independent Brigade, you will be an acting team leader first. After studying for a while, you will become a full-time member!"

The other people present were a little jealous, and they gave the position of leader as soon as they came up, so why don't they surpass themselves and others in the future? What a formidable young man!

"I don't agree!" At this moment, a voice full of anger shouted. (To be continued..)
