"Zhang Zhuoyan, I am a defeated general, what do I know? You have a strong army and capital. It is not difficult to pacify Mongolia. At that time, you will be a national hero that the world looks up to. I want to congratulate you in advance!"

Xu Shuzheng spoke with sarcasm, but Zhang Tinglan's face did not change, but said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, if the affairs of this world can be solved by brute force, why do you need your brains? How much does Outer Mongolia have for China's national defense?" If Outer Mongolia is lost, Inner Mongolia will not be enough to serve as a barrier for Beijing and Tianjin. If Beijing and Tianjin are unstable, North China will not be peaceful. If our generation cannot take back Outer Mongolia, it will make future generations poke their backs. "

When Xu Shuzheng heard this, he sighed: "Zhang Zhuoyan, I didn't expect you to have such a vision, and to be so aware of the value of Outer Mongolia. Xu originally thought that after the army occupied the three places of Rehe, he would use Inner Mongolia As a foundation, and then take down Outer Mongolia, but now, everything has become nothing. Xu has been reduced to a prisoner, and his grand plans and ambitions have long since disappeared!"

"Xu Shuzheng, you don't have to be crazy, it seems that you have the country in your heart, and Fengjun's strategic layout is much farther than yours." Sun Anhu couldn't understand Xu Shuzheng's arrogant demeanor, so he said with a sneer: "When the Russian Civil War just broke out, The Fengjun sent troops to Hailanpao, and took back Jiangdong 64. Do you think it was just to grab a piece of land? In the past two years, Fengjun has sent more than 5 soldiers to Hailanpao for training in rotation, and they are familiar with the combat environment in the Far East. .Now we are almost ready. Sooner or later, the Feng army will cross Heilongjiang, enter the outer northeast, and take back the land that belongs to us."

After Sun Anhu mentioned the Outer Northeast, Xu Shuzheng finally showed an expression of disbelief. The Outer Northeast is different from Outer Mongolia. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties had already signed a treaty, and the Outer Northeast was sold in black and white.If you want to take it back, it is bound to be difficult.Outer Mongolia has never recognized independence, so there is still a chance.

When Xu Shuzheng was discussing with Lao Duan, he only focused on Outer Mongolia. He didn't dare to think about Outer Northeast. Considering it, this is a bit too surprising!

Looking at Xu Shuzheng who couldn't believe it, Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "In fact, Outer Northeast and Outer Mongolia should be viewed in a strategic chess game. Outer Northeast is related to China's northern route to the sea. If China wants to develop into a maritime power. It must be taken back here. But if you want to take back the outer northeast, you have to tear your face with the Russians and fight them in the Far East. The current situation is still that the enemy is strong and we are weak. If you want to fight Russia, the only way It is to completely control Outer Mongolia first. Occupy the geographical advantage and threaten the Trans-Siberian Railway at any time. Only then can the Russians bow their heads."

Zhang Tinglan said a few words.To tell the truth about Fengjun's strategic plan, in fact, in comparison, the strategic value, resource reserves, and geographical advantages of the Outer Northeast far exceed Outer Mongolia.But if you want to take back the Outer Northeast, you must first control Outer Mongolia.Simply put, the Outer Northeast is related to the development plan, and Outer Mongolia is the cornerstone of the northern defense.

The two complement each other, and it is actually a game of chess, which the Russians see very accurately.If Outer Mongolia fell into Chinese hands, their power in the Far East was in extreme danger.Once China becomes stronger, Russia's Far East may even collapse directly. For Russia, to keep the Outer Northeast, it must first take down Outer Mongolia. His eyes are very vicious. [

Xu Shuzheng closed his eyes, thought carefully, and then couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Xu has always boasted of being resourceful, but now it seems that I am much worse than Zhang Shuai, and your style and bearing are far superior to mine. , It is also a blessing for China to have you in your homeland and the day of your return!"

Speaking of Xu Shuzheng gave Zhang Tinglan a deep salute, Zhang Tinglan saw it in his eyes, and knew very well in his heart that Xu Shuzheng is self-willed and narrow-minded, but he still knows the importance of the great cause of the country, just a "character" defect It was too serious, and the ambition in my heart was not realized.

"Mr. Xu, the outcome of the Russian Civil War has basically been decided, and there is not much time left for us. I invite you to come here to discuss how to calm Outer Mongolia as quickly as possible and eliminate hidden dangers. Then feel confident and bold to fight the Russians."

Xu Shuzheng closed his eyes slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "Zhang Shuai, my initial idea was to attract a group of princes who are close to the central government, and then suppress the other group. After that, we will launch comprehensive reforms to eliminate the hidden danger of independence, and at the same time slowly Eliminate Russia's influence. However, it is doomed to take a long time, and it is difficult to achieve quick results, and it cannot meet your requirements."

Xiao Xu walked around the ground a few times, and then said: "There is only one way for the present, which is to clean up the upper layers of the princes and princes of Outer Mongolia as quickly as possible, and cut the mess quickly. Without these leaders, the bottom It's easy to handle."

"What Mr. Xu said is exactly what I mean, but directly attacking the Mongolian prince will easily cause the dissatisfaction of the lower-level herdsmen and cause even greater chaos. I am a bit difficult to handle!"

When Zhang Tinglan said this, he looked at Xu Shuzheng thoughtfully. Xiao Xu is so shrewd. He guessed what Zhang Tinglan was thinking when he turned his mind, and then laughed loudly, and then said: "Shuai Zhang, your wishful thinking is well done!" You are really shrewd, you want Xu to be the knife that kills people, are you doing a good job behind the scenes?"

Zhang Tinglan didn't shy away from it, but said with a smile: "I also saw you arresting De Wang and others, so I came up with this idea. If you can bring some troops, Mr. Xu, you can calm the situation in Outer Mongolia." If it is messed up, I can naturally send troops to suppress, kill all the damn princes, clean up all the upper floors, and then proceed to the next step, it will be much easier."

"It's amazing, it's really calculating, let someone Xu take the blame, but you will live forever, do you think I will be willing?" Xu Shuzheng said sharply.

"Mr. Xu, after the death of Mr. Yuan, Prime Minister Duan took over. You are his main counselor and assistant. Let's see how the world is going from bad to worse. Isn't it your responsibility? The unification of force is indeed good. , I am also inclined to this method, but your method is a bit too rough and too blatant. Not only did you fail to kill the warlords in the Southwest and Sun Dapao, but also caused Beiyang to fall apart, which is beyond control. Until now, you have not reviewed it Is it your own mistake?"

When Xu Shuzheng heard this, the veins on his forehead collapsed, his joints were clenched, and the expression on his face was constantly changing, with resentment, guilt, pain, and self-blame.After a while he smiled dejectedly and said: "Zhang Zhuoyan, I am indeed ashamed of Duan Gong and the people. I promise you that I can help you mess up Outer Mongolia, but you must promise one thing, never put Outer Mongolia is lost again!"

"Mr. Xu, don't worry, Feng Jun can definitely do this!"

After discussing with Xu Shuzheng.Zhang Tinglan got the key to solve Outer Mongolia, and felt much more at ease.He said to Sun Anhu again: "I want to break the situation in Outer Mongolia. Xu Shuzheng's personal ability alone is not enough. We need to select a group of elite soldiers from the Feng army, and then find a group of capable soldiers from the captives." , Let them get familiar with the new tasks as soon as possible. In addition, the intelligence work must be done well, and it is necessary to "get" the situation of the grassland clearly, so as to know ourselves and the enemy. Target the target."

After Zhang Tinglan explained, he hurriedly asked his subordinates to send telegrams to Chang Yinhuai and Feng Yongshuang, asking them to mobilize their intelligence forces and work together.Find out the intelligence of Outer Mongolia.

Just when Zhang Tinglan was making arrangements, news came from the direction of Zhangjiakou. Jiang Dengxuan had taken Zhangjiakou with his troops. After hearing that Xu Shuzheng was defeated, Tian Zhongyu, the governor of Chahar, immediately announced his resignation. , fled directly back to the customs, ran to the concession, and worked as an apartment. [

Just when Fengjun took Chahar quickly, the news spread to Beijing. At this time, besides the new president Feng Guozhang, the most eye-catching figures in Beijing were Cao Kun and Wu Peifu. Now they are also in full swing and powerful .

Just two days ago, Wu Peifu received a telegram from Fengtian, asking him to go to Shanhaiguan to receive arms.Since Wu Xiucai came back from Chengde, he has been thinking about this batch of munitions all the time. He even selected a group of the best members from the artillery and temporarily formed a heavy artillery regiment.Among the princes in the pass, there were basically no troops equipped with large-caliber heavy field artillery. Wu Xiucai immediately became the first person to eat crabs.

There is no doubt that the third division will definitely become the most powerful trump card in the Beiyang army.Wu Peifu happily came to Shanhaiguan with his subordinates.Fengtian also attached great importance to the cooperation with the Zhijun. Chief of General Staff Yang Yuting personally escorted the heavy artillery to Shanhaiguan.

After seeing Wu Peifu, he smiled and said: "Zhuoyan has sent a detailed telegram to the commander and us, asking us to use the fastest speed to equip the things that Mr. Wu needs. He also said that the two sides should A lot of cooperation, this is just the beginning, and there will be brighter prospects in the future."

"Lan Shuai is a trustworthy person, making friends with him is just two words: happy! Wu is also looking forward to expanding cooperation with Fengjun!"

Yang Yuting was full of smiles, and took Wu Peifu to the artillery warehouse in person. A row of thick artillery was placed in front of Wu Peifu. Yang Yuting smiled and introduced: "This is a product of the Skoda Arsenal of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It is a 150mm howitzer. A cannon weighs 760 kilograms, which is more than 500 kilograms heavier than what Fengjun is currently equipped with. It is powerful and relatively easy to maintain. If it is not different from the Fengjun standard, we would be reluctant to hand over these artillery to you. "

"Chief of Staff Yang, to be honest, I really like these artillery pieces. I don't know if Fengjun still has them. If so, I'm willing to pay for them, no matter how much money they have."

Zhang Tinglan had already explained to Yang Yuting in detail the idea of ​​cooperating with Wu Peifu. Now that Yang Yuting saw Wu Peifu taking the bait, he was very proud, but he knew that some people don't know how to cherish things that are too easy to get, so he said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, we will talk about the arms deal next time. Let's take a look at other artillery pieces first!"

Yang Yuting took Wu Peifu to look at the other 24 120 [-]mm howitzers, and Wu Peifu was full of praise. He hurriedly loaded these artillery pieces on the train and transported them back to the barracks. , Wu Peifu spoke even harder.

He asked Cao Kun to send a telegram to Cai Chengxun, asking him to hand over Suiyuan to Fengjun as soon as possible. Cai Chengxun saw that there was pressure from Fengjun on the outside and instructions from Cao Kun on the inside, so he could only leave Suiyuan in despair. With one shot, another province was successfully captured.

Zhang Tinglan then sent Sun Anhu to Suiyuan to receive them, maintain local law and order, and clean up the remaining troops at the same time.Although Suiyuan is under control, Inner Mongolia has all fallen into the hands of Feng Jun.

The focus of the next step is on Outer Mongolia. Xu Shuzheng's troops are also ready. He personally led more than 1000 elite soldiers into the vast grassland. Zhang Tinglan's plan to disrupt Outer Mongolia has also officially launched. .

At this time, another armed force also entered Outer Mongolia from the opposite direction. The leader of this group was Unqin, a Russian baron. After the October Revolution, he was an important general of Belarus. This guy led his 1 After more than [-] vanguard troops entered Outer Mongolia.

There is one person who has been looking forward to him for a long time, and this is the current pseudo-prime minister of Outer Mongolia, Bade Madorji! (to be continued
