Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 213 Winning 1 Province

After Kawashima Naniwa finished speaking, Katsuta Nakamichi also said: "I completely agree with Mr. Kawashima. Zhang Zuolin is an extremely dangerous person. He is very different from ordinary middle-class elites. Zhang Zuolin doesn't just know how to lead troops to fight Reckless. He knows the power of finance, and he pays great attention to rural issues. You must know that the rise and fall of China for thousands of years is closely related to the rural areas. From all angles, Zhang Zuolin is the most far-sighted local leader. , once it develops, it will definitely become a major obstacle for the empire."

Everyone present also nodded, and they also agreed with this judgment very much. After hearing this, Kihachiro Okura nodded and said, "We can't give Zhang Zuolin any more time to develop. We must take him down as soon as possible. Even if the country does not support it, we must Take action, only true warriors can undertake this mission, Mr. Kawashima, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Naniwa Kawashima hurriedly said: "Okura-kun, don't worry, the two young officers of the Kwantung Army, Junnosuke Date and Toyo Nakamura, have taken the lead in forming the Manchurian Death Squad, and they are willing to use their lives to assassinate Zhang Zuolin. His Majesty the Emperor sacrifices himself!"

The bounden duty of the army is to obey and pay attention to orders and prohibitions. At the same time, soldiers cannot interfere in politics. However, the middle and lower ranks of Japan's military officers are proud of rebellion, and they are actively involved in politics that they are not good at. The current formation of the Manchukuo Death Squad is an example.

Since the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese army has gained supreme glory and power. At the same time, it has lost its restraint and control like wild dogs. The heads of middle and lower officers are all dedicated to the emperor and conquered Manchuria. Thoughts like enslaving China.

These fanatical military officers did not realize their madness at all, nor did they realize that their actions would bring Japan into the abyss of eternal doom. On the contrary, they believed that they were for the future of Japan, as the saying goes, success and failure.The fanatical militaristic enthusiasm allowed the small island country to defeat two powerful enemies successively, but the gamblers will eventually lose the game one day!

Of course, Okura Kihachiro couldn't think of these things. As a veteran chaebol, Okura didn't have such fanatical respect for the emperor. What made him crazy was only profit. The Liaonan rebellion caused him heavy losses, and he was given another A loud slap in the face.

Not only did they fail to catch evidence of Zhang Zuolin's smuggling, but they also abolished Meng Enyuan's card in order to expand their economic interests in Jilin in the future.It will definitely be affected. Da Cang has already regarded Zhang Zuolin as the biggest stumbling block, and wants to get rid of it quickly.As for Kawashima Naniwa and those young officers, they are just pawns in his hands.

"Mr. Kawashima, do you have a detailed plan?"

"We are preliminarily planning to start on May 27. On this day, Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen will return to Japan from Petrograd. Zhang Zuolin must return to the station to meet him. At this time, we can set up an ambush and kill Zhang Zuolin in one fell swoop."

Since Zhang Zuolin had a conflict with the Japanese, he has been very careful in all kinds of actions. It can be said that he goes in-depth and simple, and there are many guards around him.After Wang Yongjiang took charge of government affairs, he handed over the police to Su Liangzhen.Su Liangzhen's ability is very good, and she built Fengtian up and down like Tietong, and it is as impenetrable as wind and rain.

Under such circumstances, he wanted to assassinate Zhang Zuolin.It is definitely not an easy task. Kawashima Naniwa and the others have been thinking about it for a long time, and they can only attack Lao Zhang when the emperor's younger brother passes by Fengtian.

Okura Kihachiro nodded after listening: "The timing is very good, there is still half a month left, you have to let those warriors train quickly, don't let up any slack, I will provide them with financial help!"

With Okura's guarantee, Kawashima Naniwa was beaming immediately, and went to make arrangements.

These guys were discussing secretly here, but Lao Zhang didn't know about it, he was still immersed in joy, Duan Qirui finally let go of the strong public opinion offensive, and had initially agreed to let Bao Guiqing be the governor of Jilin, and Meng Enyuan was transferred back to Beijing.

The successful takeover of Jilin by the old in-laws is equivalent to opening the door of Jilin to the Fengjun. Lao Zhang has long had the ambition to annex the three eastern provinces, but he did not expect that the speed would be so fast. He just unified Fengtian and then took Jilin. As long as the time is right, and Heilongjiang is in your hands, you will become a veritable king of the Northeast.

"Commander, Meng Enyuan still refuses to hand over his seal, and is gathering the remnants of the army, preparing to fight to the death. What do you think should be done?"

Yang Yuting reported the news he had just received to Lao Zhang, and Zhang Zuolin scolded with a smile: "Damn it, Meng Enyuan is still a bit bloody, but he doesn't want to fight us, he will draw a regiment from the Cavalry Division, and also a regiment from the 27th Division." Regiment, plus a brigade led by Fuchen, we gathered 1 people and escorted my old relative's family into Kyrgyzstan, but Meng Enyuan wanted to stop him, and he was about to die!"

Lao Zhang is also a decisive figure. Once he decides to attack, he will never be polite. Feng Tian received Zhang Zuolin's order and hurriedly dispatched troops. In addition to preparing the army, Zhang Zuolin also asked Zhang Tinglan to help Zhang Luo 200 million Ocean loan.

The money was used to buy the Ji army, appease the local reserves, and Jilin's taxes were used as a guarantee. Zhang Tinglan was in favor of this kind of loan. This time, Bao Guiqing took advantage of it.

With this loan, Zhang Tinglan was able to blatantly use economic means to control Jilin, and even find a way to empty Bao Guiqing. It all depends on whether the new Marshal Bao is smart enough.

Zhang Zuolin had almost prepared everything, and Bao Guiqing was finally formally appointed as the governor of Jilin.After Lao Duan came to power, he was brewing reforms. It turned out that Lao Yuan implemented the system of the general's mansion, and changed the governors of the provinces from feudal officials to officials sent by the central government.

But the old Duan found that the effect was still very limited, and the power of the local princes was still getting heavier, so Duan Qirui decided to implement the system of governors and governors. The governors are in charge of military affairs, and the governors are in charge of civil affairs. An Overseer.

All the way north from Beijing, he received a warm welcome. In the past two years, Bao Guiqing has been in charge of the Beijing Lecture Hall, and he has actually been marginalized. Now that Xianyu has turned himself over and ascended to the sky in one step, he has directly become a prince. He is still extremely proud.

But what followed was full of distress. As the warlord, he was caught between Beiyang and his in-laws. Bao Guiqing was a little embarrassed about what to do.

His special train soon arrived in Fengtian. Zhang Zuolin led his civil and military officials to meet Bao Guiqing at the station. The two had grown up together since they were young. They were also very emotional, and they joined hands, boarded the carriage together, and returned to the commander's mansion.

That night, Lao Zhang prepared a warm welcome banquet. All the senior officials of Fengtian gathered together, and everyone exchanged cups, and the atmosphere was very warm.After Lao Zhang drank two cups, he took Bao Guiqing's hand and said, "Dear family, you can rest assured that you go to Jilin this time. If you want a gun, you need money. He's gone, you're welcome."

"Yuting's soldiers are pointing at the front, and they are as powerful as a broken bamboo. I am very clear about this." Bao Guiqing complimented a few words, then changed the subject, and continued: "But after all, Meng Enyuan is Beiyang old man has been an official in the same dynasty for many years, we have to give him a way to survive, he has to be forgiving and forgiving, don't you think?"

When Zhang Zuolin heard this, he felt a little unhappy. Feng Jun did his best to take Meng Enyuan down, and then Lao Zhang pulled Bao Guiqing up from the bench and let him take over Jilin. Still speaking for Meng Enyuan, is this trying to please both sides?Don't forget who gave you this position!

Although Lao Zhang was unhappy, he didn't show it at all on his face. He was still talking and laughing. When he talked about being happy, Wang Yongjiang suddenly raised his wine glass, toasted Bao Guiqing, and said, "Marshal Bao, you He Yushuai is a good friend of Qin and Jin. In the future, our two provinces should also be like this, taking care of each other and helping each other. Compared with Fengtian, Jilin is a little behind. I suggest that the two sides should cooperate in an all-round way and exchange what is needed to benefit the two provinces. people."

Wang Yongjiang raised the question of cooperation at this wine table. It seemed casual, but in fact it had deep meaning. Bao Guiqing's warlord was brought down by the Fengjun, and Fengtian contributed to make Bao Guiqing famous. To Fengtian, if there is no benefit for Fengtian, wouldn't he be a fool!

Zhang Zuolin also knew that, as the so-called brothers settle accounts clearly, this kind of thing really needs to be explained clearly, so Lao Zhang said with a smile: "In-laws, we should really help each other, what do you think?"

"Of course it's the best thing. Jilin is in dire straits, and urgently needs Fengtian's help. To be honest, on the way here, I just want to ask for alms!"

"Hehe, old in-laws, I discussed with Zhuoyan and asked Fengtian Bank to provide you with a loan of 200 million yuan. It is mainly used to rectify the army and restore local law and order. Do you think it is enough?"

Bao Guiqing thought for a while and said, "Yuting, this time the main force of the Kyrgyz army has lost a lot. To recover quickly, it will require a lot of financial resources. I think it will take at least 500 million yuan?"

For Zhang Zuolin, this amount was indeed a bit unexpected. He was a little embarrassed. Wang Yongjiang suddenly said: "Marshal Bao, I have an idea. You are looking to see if it works. It is to mortgage the official bank account of Jilin. In the future, Jilin will be the same as Fengtian, and the pass will be issued, and the exchanges between the two provinces will be convenient in the future, and our financial currency will be integrated, and it will be much easier to borrow money."

When Bao Guiqing heard this, there was a hint of astonishment on his face. He had been an official for so many years, and he didn't know anything. Why did Meng Enyuan start a war with Zhang Zuolin? If it is handed over to Zhang Zuolin, it will completely become Lao Zhang's subordinate and follower.

"Don't be too hasty in everything. I think it's better to understand the people's situation first. As for the army, there is no rush to rectify it. Two million is enough!"

As soon as the words came out, the scene suddenly became a little weird. Lao Zhang suddenly smiled and said: "My dear family, I will arrange someone to send you to Jilin to work first. We will talk about other things later. Let's put this piece of meat in a bowl first." Inside!" (To be continued...)
