Fengxian Jiangshan

"You want to take advantage of the fire to rob!" Horvath knew everything at this time, and the original close cooperative relationship between the two parties was completely terminated. After the friendly mask was torn off, only swordsmen were left facing each other.

The big bear roared loudly: "The Middle East Road belongs to Russia. You should never expect too much. Don't look at a little trouble in Russia, but the existing defense forces on the Middle East Road can easily crush your army. If If you dare to provoke Russia's bottom line, as long as Russia's troubles are resolved, our troops will continue to kill them, and by that time, there will be no more China in the world!"

No matter how angry Horvat was, Zhang Tinglan looked calm, with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth. After he finished speaking, Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Mr. Horvat, as a former friend, I would like to advise you one last thing , Hand over the Middle East Road as soon as possible, Fengjun will help you, we also oppose those majority parties, but if you are stubborn, we will definitely take military action, and we will not be polite at all!"

Zhang Tinglan has undoubtedly issued an ultimatum to Horvath, and the big bear calmed down, with a layer of frost on his face, and said with a sneer: "Despicable yellow-skinned monkey, even if a tiger is sick, it is still a tiger." , will never be afraid of a herd of goats!"

After this guy finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, more than a dozen soldiers came from outside, holding guns and blocking Horvat inside. As long as Zhang Tinglan gave an order, he would be arrested. Strain into a sieve.

At this time, Horvath finally felt scared. He miscalculated the form. Isn’t this just a self-inflicted trap?

"You despicable people, shoot if you have the ability. I guarantee that if you dare to shoot the first shot, the Russian government will never let you go!"

Zhang Tinglan waved his hand, asked the soldiers to put away their guns, and then said: "Horvat, China is a country of etiquette, and we will never use such despicable methods. I just want to remind you that if a war starts, everything will be destroyed. Your little power will be uprooted. Then you will be nothing."

Horvath glared at Zhang Tinglan with killing eyes, then turned and left, obviously he didn't care about the last warning, in his opinion.Chinese people will always be humbled, and they are not worthy of being their opponents at all.As long as the Russian army charges.The Feng army can be completely wiped out.

Watching Horvat leave, Zhang Tinglan also hastily called a meeting of the road guards. All the main officers at all levels were present. Zhang Tinglan sat in the middle, Yang Yuting, and Sun Anhu.Zhang Xueliang and others were all on the sidelines.

"Commander-in-Chief, why don't you just kill Horvath directly, then the East Road will be leaderless, and it will be easier to attack." Zhang Xueliang said: "Didn't the book of war say that you shoot the horse first when you shoot the man? Capture the thief first and capture the king first?" Zhang Xueliang said. !"

"Killing Horvat will only make the Middle Eastern Road without a leader, which will benefit the majority party in vain. With Horvat suppressing them, they will not be able to make trouble. In addition, what we want to receive is the entire Middle Eastern Road, complete and complete, not A battered and dilapidated Middle East road, especially those factories, railways and telegraph lines, etc., cannot be damaged at all."

When the Russians built the Middle East Road, they regarded this road as a shortcut to the ice-free port, so they spared no expense, and the investment was astonishing.A large number of supporting facilities have also been set up along the railway, including mines, post offices, libraries, observatories, schools and so on.

The most valuable of these is the Harbin General Factory on Dongdong Road. This is a large factory responsible for the maintenance of train locomotives. So far, it has [-] workers. It is an out-and-out factory. At the beginning of the design and construction, the Russians Ready to produce locomotives.

However, due to the serious corruption of Russian officials, they could not produce locomotives in the end, so they had to settle for the next best thing and become a factory for repairing locomotives, but fortunately, the foundation was good.Since the outbreak of World War I, the transportation pressure on the Middle East Road has continued to increase, and the number of locomotives required has greatly increased. The factory has also had to expand its scale. So far, it has been able to assemble locomotives.

Zhang Tinglan also sent people to investigate the factory, and the information showed that the factory has great potential. As long as it can add some machines and build a cast iron workshop to be responsible for the production of parts, it can completely produce locomotives by itself.

After receiving the news, Zhang Tinglan was almost ecstatic. Looking around the world, the countries that can produce locomotives are only a few big powers. Although China has a lot of railways, let alone the production of locomotives, even maintenance depends on with foreigners.

If Fengjun can get this factory, it can be said that it will reach the sky in one step, and the three eastern provinces will definitely overhaul the railway in the next step. After being able to produce locomotives, it will also avoid the containment and blackmail of the big powers. The role of Fengjun's development is hard to say. During the war, Zhang Tinglan would feel pain if there was even a little damage.

Therefore, he deliberately knocked the mountain to shake the tiger, in order to make Horvath feel threatened. He will inevitably shrink his troops. Although the attack will be more difficult in this way, it can ensure the safety of a large number of factories and facilities along the way, and Zhang Tinglan also believes that he has always been arrogant. The Horvath still does not return to the game of clearing the wall and clearing the field.

"We have already had a showdown with Horvath. As the saying goes, there is no turning back. Everyone must be ready to fight. War may break out at any time and anywhere. We must seize the Middle East Road as soon as possible and eliminate the Russian garrison."

Zhang Tinglan issued the combat order, and Yang Yuting said from the side: "Let me remind everyone again that the purpose of our operation is to take back the Middle East Road. During the battle, everyone should try their best to preserve the railway and the facilities along the line. Time, you can make more sacrifices!"

In fact, everyone knows the value of people in their hearts, and nothing is more precious than life, but everyone understands Yang Yuting's order very well, and there is even a trace of sadness in their hearts.China's current foundation is too weak. If it wants to develop rapidly, it must cherish every factory, pay attention to all infrastructure, and even sacrifice its life for it.Although it is cruel to do so, if you don't do this, the sacrifice will only be greater in the future, even hundreds of times and thousands of times.

This is actually a bloody speed, but without this speed, the entire nation will face the slaughter knife. Thousands of compatriots, thousands of miles of territory, wives and children are scattered, the country is ruined and the family is destroyed. It is an eternal truth that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. So some sacrifices are inevitable.

After the combat order was issued, all the road guards were mobilized. As the saying goes, soldiers are raised for a thousand days and used for a short time. From the beginning of the formation of the army, everyone has been holding back their energy.

In fact, after Zhang Tinglan arrived in Jilin, when training soldiers, he regarded Russia as the biggest imaginary enemy. After forming the road guard army, this kind of training became more targeted. Through various channels, the Russians were constantly detected. intelligence, understand their combat characteristics, and figure out the fortifications along the railway.

Moreover, Zhang Tinglan also found a way to get a group of Russian soldiers, and let them practice with Fengjun, so that the soldiers were more familiar with the weaknesses of the Russian army, and used their own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

After several months of hard work and sweat, it is now time to reap the rewards. All soldiers are high-spirited and fully prepared for battle.At this time, the news that the Russian Tsar was overthrown was also spread in China, and the public opinion was in an uproar for a while. Of course, most of the media still didn't know what happened in Russia. The emperor drove away.

Of course, there are also some sensitive people who have discovered the opportunity and began to advocate the abolition of the treaty between China and Russia to take back the lost rights and interests, especially Outer Mongolia.

These are nothing more than a little more talk for ordinary people, but for some upper-level figures, this is a big event that will shatter the world.

"Zhi Weng, Zhang Zuolin sent a telegram requesting authorization from the central government. He wants to help defend the Middle East Road by force, so as to prevent the chaos in Russia from affecting the stability of the Northeast. How do you think we should deal with it?"

Duan Qirui closed his eyes slightly, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he smiled wryly for a long time: "Youzheng, Zhang Zuolin, the red beard, is causing us trouble again. Tsarist Russia is a big power. If there is a problem occasionally, maybe it can be solved." Get over it, if you act rashly and offend the great powers, you may end up with no good fruit."

After Duan Qirui became the prime minister, he truly experienced the difficulties of Lao Yuan. The domestic situation is in chaos, and the international situation is also changing rapidly. Everything makes Duan Qirui's brain very troubled.

Since entering 1917, the relationship between the United States and Germany has become more and more tense. The declaration of war between the two sides is only in sight, and the United States has proposed to Duan Qirui that China also participate in the war. The United States is willing to provide loans to help China build an army. In fact, this is the name of the United States wanting to join the war to control China.

You must know that China has no money, no weapons, and not enough officers. If you want to participate in the war, you must rely on the help of the big powers. It can be said that whoever provides loans to China will control China's most powerful army and control China. s future.

The Japanese, who saw through this, also intervened and began to encourage Duan Qirui to declare war on Germany. The old Duan always felt that the Japanese were close at hand, and it would be more cost-effective to cooperate with them, so he decided to abandon the United States, which made the first proposal, and turn to Japan. cooperate.

As a result, the Americans voluntarily violated their own proposal, opposed China's participation in the war, and supported President Li Yuanhong, making him confront Duan Qirui. The shamelessness of the Americans was fully revealed.

This also became the fuse of the dispute between the government and the court. Duan Qirui already felt that a big trouble was approaching. At this time, Lao Zhang was proposing to take back the Middle East Road in a disguised form. How could Duan Qirui agree easily!

"Zhi Weng's scruples are also justified. I actually support the recovery of the Middle East Road. It is best to take back Outer Mongolia together. We just have to wait for the situation to become clearer, otherwise we will be in big trouble if we rush out."

Just as the two of them were discussing the countermeasures, someone suddenly ran in in a panic.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, Zhang Zuolin has issued an order to the Fengjun. In order to prevent the spread of the majority party, the Fengjun officially assists in the defense of the Middle East Road!" (To be continued...)
