Fengxian Jiangshan

Meng Enyuan is an old man from Beiyang. He has followed Lao Yuan since he was training at the military station. However, his fortune is different from others. He did not rely on actual achievements, but relied on his cleverness to reach the sky in one step.

When the Empress Dowager Cixi inspected the new army at Xiaozhan, she accidentally dropped the hairpin on her head on the ground, which happened to be picked up by Meng Enyuan. Back to Foshan!

After saying one sentence, Cixi was cheered up. As a result, she was promoted all the way until she sat on the throne of one of the princes. Everyone still disdained him, and secretly called him General Shizan.

Now the hairpin-picking general is furious, yelling at his nephew Gao Shibin, holding the telegram sent by Wu Taian in his hand, the veins in his hand are bulging, his face is flushed, walking back and forth on the ground in circles, Neither standing nor sitting.

In the telegram, Wu Tai'an told Meng Enyuan exactly what happened, without daring to hide anything.His mind is still very clear, this time he must have caused a big trouble, maybe even Meng Enyuan will have problems.

Lao Meng carefully calculated the current situation, and found that Gao Shibin had made a mistake this time, and intercepted Fengtian's caravan. Guo Zongxi was dissatisfied when the patrol came.

Moreover, the business circles in Jilin and Fengtian provinces will also be dissatisfied. After all, they are buying and selling reasonably and legally, but you seize them without reason, and your attitude is so arrogant, no one will feel comfortable.In addition, they cooperated with the Japanese and acted as Japanese thugs. All walks of life in Jilin must be dissatisfied. Not only Jilin is dissatisfied, but even Beijing will be unhappy.

In fact, even the Japanese are dissatisfied with Gao Shibing, mainly blaming him for his incompetence.The convoy and reporters were released, and the other batch of goods was shipped from Tsarist Russia. It is hard to say whether the Russians will also intervene.

Thinking of this, Meng Enyuan was completely dumbfounded. Gao Shimin's actions would offend everyone who could be offended. There is no such bastard in this world. Meng Enyuan was completely confused and didn't know what to do.

Meng Enyuan was worried, and Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Tinglan who were in Fengtian also received a report from Changchun, and the plan was implemented perfectly.Not only did the Japanese play tricks, but Meng Enyuan was also included, which is definitely killing two birds with one stone.

"Zhuoyan, now it's time to close the net, what do you think should we do? Should we mobilize public opinion to put pressure on Japan and Meng Enyuan now?"

After thinking about it, Zhang Tinglan shook her head: "Marshal. Although we have taken the initiative, we must also think about how to make moves, and we must not waste a good hand of cards."

"Clumsy, be specific."

"Well, although the Japanese were frustrated this time, if you think about it carefully, the Japanese were not involved deeply. There were no casualties. Just seizing vehicles and mobilizing troops at will can't do anything to the Japanese."

Although Zhang Tinglan was very helpless.But this is also true. Foreigners are used to running amok on China's territory. In many cases, they made unreasonable troubles and injured Chinese citizens. In turn, they demanded an apology from the Chinese government. This time, there was no loss of personnel. If Fengtian is not relentless, it will easily anger Japan.

"Once the bottom line of the Japanese is exceeded, their backlash will be attracted, and the trade with Russia on the Middle East Road will be affected, which in turn will endanger the smuggling business. We will lose more than we gain."

Zhang Zuolin nodded when he heard this. What Zhang Tinglan said was not wrong at all. In the final analysis, Fengjun's power was weak and he dared not push the Japanese into a corner.

"Zhuoyan, you mean to focus your attack only on Meng Enyuan."

"That's right, he connived Gao Shibin to do evil, at least it shows that he is not strict in management, and more importantly, he colluded with the Japanese and endangered the interests of Chinese businessmen. Can such a humble guy be the commander of a province? Public opinion will definitely be one-sided , forming a powerful situation against Meng Enyuan, and we can also take this opportunity to sue Beijing and let them replace Meng Enyuan."

Lao Zhang thought for a while, then patted the table and said, "That's it, I'll go to Shitian first, and he should give us an explanation anyway."

Going to look for Shi Tian now is obviously out of intention to bully others, and to be good-looking if he gets it cheaply, but Zhang Tinglan is also willing to see the embarrassment of the Japanese, so she went to the Japanese consulate with Lao Zhang.

At this time, Shitian had already received a report from Changchun, and nothing was searched at all. Now Shitian was very disappointed. He even faintly felt that he had been fooled by Zhang Zuolin again. The recent dealings with him were not smooth. This time it was like this again, full of confidence, but in the end he hit the cotton ball with his fist, and someone got the handle. If this is announced, the Japanese side will soon be disgraced again.

In fact, for the Japanese, it is very contradictory for the Japanese to neither care about the views of the Chinese, but also have to care about the views of the Chinese.China is poor and weak, and the government can't even threaten the Japanese, and a few words of abuse are even worse. If the Japanese are pushed into a hurry, they can turn around and provoke troubles and blackmail China.

But one thing the Japanese have to admit is that China is Japan's largest foreign market and also the largest source of raw materials. If the Chinese people generally oppose Japan and boycott Japanese products in large numbers, it will be a disaster for Japan.

The so-called strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake. If the Japanese want to gain economic benefits, they must maintain relative friendship with the Chinese political and business circles instead of blindly confronting them. Facing this situation, Losing Land is simply a dilemma. Put an end to this farce.

At this time, Lao Zhang took the initiative to visit, and Shi Tian's eyes suddenly lit up, maybe a turning point was in sight, after he invited Lao Zhang into the consulate, he sat across from him.

Old Zhang looked gloomy, and asked directly: "Mr. Shitian, what exactly are you looking for in Japan? Mr. Zhang told you to look for it at will. Why do you have to act like a shadow and embarrass the businessman?"

Facing Lao Zhang's questioning, Shi Tian was speechless for a while, and said after a long time: "Marshal Zhang, this is a misunderstanding, we got a report that there were prohibited items, and we took the attitude of being responsible to all parties, so we started to search of."

"It's not something that's banned. It's me." Lao Zhang directly exposed Shitian's lie: "Zhang said a long time ago that I would like to be friends with Japan and enhance our friendship, but there is one prerequisite, that is Guarantee the basic mutual respect, you have to give me some shame!"

Zhang Zuolin's words reached this level, like a poisoned dagger, piercing Shitian's heart, causing him pain, but he couldn't refute it.Who told them not to catch the real evidence, now they can only let Lao Zhang hurt them.

Fortunately, Shitian Shitian is an old-fashioned politician, and he fought with Zhang Zuolin for a period of time. He knew very well that Zhang Zuolin came here this time to find a way for both parties.Otherwise, Lao Zhang has already taken advantage.You can sit on the Diaoyutai, there is no need to come here.

"Dashuai Zhang. Some things have already happened. We still have to think of a solution so that both parties can accept it."

Zhang Zuolin nodded slightly: "This time, there must be an explanation for the seizure of goods by mobilizing the masses. Someone must be responsible, otherwise there is no way to explain to Fengtian's business community."

"Are you saying that Gao Shibing should be responsible?" Shi Tian is also a smart person, since someone needs to take responsibility.Then apart from Japan, there is only the dog-legged Gao Shibin.

"That's right, I can say hello to some Chinese newspapers and ask them to point the finger of public opinion at Meng Enyuan and Gao Shibin. It is they who are doing evil, domineering and domineering, and try not to involve Japan. In the future, the Fengtian business community and Japanese businessmen The cooperation is still the same, Zhang hopes that the Japanese side can maintain a certain amount of restraint, and if there are any problems in the future, we can communicate and discuss directly, so we don’t have to use black guns like this, and make troubles!”

After Lao Zhang finished speaking, Shitian's heart was churning. This is indeed a solution. Although the Japanese bamboo basket fetched water this time, there are no serious consequences, as long as no one is manipulating public opinion behind the scenes. , will not cause any harm to Japan at all.

And it's not impossible to let Gao Shibin take the blame. Who made this guy so stupid? Otherwise, if the convoy and reporters have been detained, Japan can also set up a frame, and it will not be so passive at all.

Shi Tian thought for a while, and then said: "This is indeed the most appropriate solution, but you must not make things too difficult for Meng Enyuan, enough is enough!"

An agreement was reached with Shitian, and the Japanese were completely removed from the inside. Now we can deal with Meng Enyuan and Gao Shibin with greater confidence. Lao Zhang is still very satisfied, but he still cursed in his mouth: "Damn it, the little Japanese devils bullied us and wanted to bully us, but in the end they still have to lift them up high, let them go, how frustrating!"

"Seventh Lord, don't be angry when you are old. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on this time. Gao Shibing is completely an outcast of the Japanese. The worse we deal with them, the more we can deter others and let those Officials and military leaders have to think carefully about what is the end of cooperating with the Japanese, without the cooperation of this group of people who have forgotten their ancestors, the Japanese will never want to run amok."

The so-called rabbit dead dog cooking, things hurt their kind.You can use Gao Shibing as an example, so that everyone can see what it's like to mess with the Japanese!

"Well, that's what I said, you have to take care of the rest of the affairs. You must let Meng Enyuan lose his prestige. There is no way to get along in Jilin."

After these behind-the-scenes transactions were implemented, the newspapers in Fengtian and Jilin all focused on reporting this incident. Some western newspapers are more objective in their reporting process, sneering at the Japanese, thinking that this is evidence that Japan is expanding their interests and wants to dominate the business of the three northeastern provinces.

All in all, the public opinion was completely boiling, and Lao Meng's situation became more and more difficult. He just reprimanded his nephew Gao Shibin in the telegram and told him to go back to Jilin.Then Lao Meng went to Guo Zongxi again, communicated with the patrol envoy, and apologized to him.

When Meng Enyuan was very busy, the business and academic circles in Jilin and Changchun took action. This time the goods involved merchants from the two provinces. The major merchants recommended several representatives, found Lao Meng, and asked Meng Enyuan Crying, they are already in a very difficult situation, constantly being bullied by Japan, and now their own people are helping Japan to bully them, will they be given a way out?

The business world is more reserved, while the academic world is more straightforward. Old Meng Guangrong was accused of being a traitor and a traitor. Everyone unanimously demanded that the traitor be punished and the best man be taken down. Meng Enyuan also apologized to all walks of life.

At this time, Fengtian's representative also found Guo Zongxi, the patrol envoy.

"Does Zhang Yushuai have any advice?"

"Your Excellency is indeed wise. Yu Shuai said that as long as you can take the lead in reporting Meng Enyuan to Beijing and making his crimes known to the public, Yu Shuai will definitely not treat you badly. In the future, you will definitely have a place in Jilin."

Guo Zongxi still has some hesitation: "Meng Shuai has been in Jilin for many years, and he has made a lot of achievements. Moreover, he has a large number of soldiers and a large number of soldiers, and the control is very strict. If we go to report him, we are not hitting a stone with an egg. I am afraid that the tiger will be injured if it fails. !"

In the final analysis, Guo Zongxi was still a little afraid of Meng Enyuan, and the accumulation of prestige for many years could not be eliminated overnight.

"My lord, Yu Shuai has asked Zhang Zhenshi to bring a brigade of soldiers close to the border of Jifeng. Meng Enyuan is just a general who picks up hairpins. If he dares to make mistakes, Fengjun will not let him go!" (To be continued. .)
