Years of the Republic of China 1913

Volume 1 The Age of Unrest Chapter 182

Yang Yuting is worthy of the title of wisdom and far-reaching. His words can be said to be thoughtful, and he has taken care of all aspects. When the words fell behind, Yang Yuting couldn't help but feel a little complacent. There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, thinking that he felt very good.

"That's all?" Zhang Zuolin raised his eyes to look at Yang Yuting, and asked lightly. His expression was not as happy as Yang Yuting had expected, and he didn't clap his hands and laugh like he did in the play. It's really my ovary..." and so on.Seeing Zhang Zuolin's slightly frowned eyebrows, Yang Yuting felt strange in his heart, but subconsciously nodded and said, "That's all, Commander."

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, who would have thought that Zhang Zuolin slapped the table hard suddenly, raised his eyebrows and cursed: "You bastards! Who do you think I, Zhang Zuolin, are? Is it just mindless and reckless, or You hide your head and shrink your tail like a eggless eunuch. And you, Yang Linge, hmph, you are really good at it, and you actually instigated me in public to play both sides? Damn you! You are all a bunch of bastards!"

Zhang Zuolin's sudden rage made everyone present terrified, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay, so frightened that they couldn't even speak.

Stretching out his hand to slap the table, Zhang Zuolin cursed again loudly: "As the saying goes, it is a matter of being loyal to the emperor, don't say it is the Republic of China, it is the same in the Qing Dynasty. The most important thing to be a man The most important thing is to be conscientious and do things with sincerity! Let’s not talk about Enshuai’s suggestion to me, Lao Zhang, and bullying us Chinese with a small Japanese book to this extent, I, Lao Zhang, can’t swallow it! Now In this situation, instead of twisting the ropes and making concerted efforts to deal with the outside world, instead of looking forward and backward, looking for a way out before fighting? According to Lao Tzu, this kind of battle is lost even if it is not fought! Fighting wars, what is the basis of fighting wars? Not only Arms and command, but also morale, people's hearts and righteousness! Without these, even if you bastards go back to the mountains to be beards, you will be slaughtered..."

Zhang Zuolin pointed at his nose and scolded everyone one by one, making their faces turn blue and red, especially Yang Yuting, who thought he was smart, was so ashamed that he almost hid his head in his trousers .

"...Ri himself doesn't come. If they dare to come, my old Zhang's 27th Army is not a vegetarian!" After Zhang Zuolin finished speaking with a beard and eyes, he shouted: "Pass my order All ministries are ready for battle immediately. Once the Japanese army launches an attack on Fengtian, they will immediately fight back against Lao Tzu. Whoever fights well in the battle will be promoted to his official position. Concentrate on conserving strength, hehe, fuck me, I'll twist his head off and use it as a urinal!"

"Yes!"

Everyone stood up quickly and responded loudly with their heels touching.Then, without even daring to look at Zhang Zuolin, he left in a hurry by making preparations for the battle, and rushed back to the army to prepare.

"Brother Seven, do you really want to fight this battle?" Zhang Zuoxiang was the last one to leave, he deliberately dragged behind to see the crowd go away, and then stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"It's impossible not to fight. Old Ba, do you think Zhong Yang will let us go if we don't fight?" Zhang Zuolin asked with a low voice and sighed.

"But once there is a big fight, can we stop Japan with our foundation?" Zhang Zuoxiang hesitated.

"I can't stop it, but isn't there a tall man to stand up to when the sky is falling?" Zhang Zuolin stroked his beard and said quietly: "If bastards like them all fight with their own wishful thinking, don't talk about fighting the Japanese themselves, I'm afraid that if Ri himself puts on a posture, the whole army will collapse."

At this point, Zhang Zuoxiang suddenly realized, and finally understood the real reason why Zhang Zuolin arranged this way. Although Zhang Zuolin had the intention of preserving his strength, as the commander, he would never allow the people below to have this idea. No matter how the battle situation changes in the future, the most important thing now is to motivate Raise morale and firmly control the army in your own hands.Moreover, the current situation in Fengtian is not only the locality, but also the whole country. It is absolutely impossible for Zhang Zuolin to put himself in the situation of "incompetence" and "fleeing without fighting" at this juncture. It is still necessary to fight, not only that, but also to play well and beautifully.

Of course, Zhang Zuolin is not a fool, and he will not fight with his old roots. Zhang Zuolin knows exactly what the battle will look like, how far it will go, and where his own endurance is. The difference between Zhang Zuolin and others is that he thinks farther than anyone else, and this is also the ability for him to step from a beard to today's position step by step.

After beating his subordinates, Zhang Zuolin's 27th Army temporarily dispelled other thoughts, and began to prepare for the battle according to Zhang Zuolin's instructions.At the same time, Zhang Zuolin did not give up on negotiations with Japan. Of course, during the negotiations, Zhang Zuolin also sent several telegrams to Zhong Yang. The family defends the country.On the other hand, Zhang Zuolin asked Zhong Yang to further support arms, supplies, etc. on the grounds of the initial establishment of the 27th Army and the tense situation, and allowed the 27th Army to expand some paramilitary forces such as local guard groups to ensure the safety of Fengtian.

Zhong Yang approved these requests one by one. At the same time, through the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff, he continued to encourage Zhang Zuolin. He also mobilized several troops to station in Chengde. Once Fengtian could not resist, Zhang Zuolin was allowed to act cheaply, and at the same time, he could provide support when necessary .

October 1916, 10, Sunday.

Under the plan of Dashanyan and Yusaku Uehara, the Japanese Army officially started military exercises in Fukuoka and North Korea.Because Emperor Taisho rarely visited in person during this exercise, the scene was grand and unusual. Although the navy did not agree with the army's military plan, but because Dashanyan persuaded the naval giant Togo Heihachiro, and Taisho Emperor was pushed out by Dashanyan Tiger skin, no matter how much the Japanese navy objects, they can only cooperate with the army's actions, mobilizing half of the warships to join this "exercise".

The distance from Tokyo to Fukuoka is not very close. Emperor Taisho, who has always been indifferent to state affairs, was very interested this time. He was accompanied by Dashanyan to inspect the army along the way, and he looked around with a telescope with great interest, and kept asking the army. Condition.

With a smile, Da Shanyan, who was a little tired, felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, maybe there was something wrong with yesterday's meal.However, in front of Emperor Taisho, he suppressed his physical discomfort and began to explain patiently.

Originally, Dashanyan thought that Emperor Taisho, a "mentally ill patient", was just going through the motions at most. Who would have thought that today's Emperor Taisho didn't know that nerve was wrong, and he felt that he couldn't win when he watched it from a high platform. It is necessary to ride a horse to inspect the troops at close range.This time, Da Shanyan suffered a lot, he could only bear the rebellion, and with the chrysanthemum in his stomach, he accompanied Emperor Taisho in a big circle back and forth. When he got off the horse, his little face turned pale.

"I was studying military affairs in Dokugoku back then, and I always wanted to have a strong army like Dokugoku. In the blink of an eye, decades have passed, and today my dream has finally come true. The army is thanks to Aiqing." Back on the high platform, Emperor Taisho remained undiminished , chattering about the past when he went to Germany to study as a prince, and Da Shanyan, who hadn't noticed that his legs were almost pinched into twists, his pale face had gradually turned blue, and Beads of sweat kept falling on his forehead.

"This is all the work of His Majesty, I just did my best for His Majesty..." Holding back, Da Shanyan agreed with a smile that was uglier than crying, but he kept cursing this in his stomach. Why doesn't the idiot emperor stop?

After waiting for half an hour, Emperor Taisho, who was pulling Dashanyan to talk endlessly, finally felt a little tired. After respectfully sending Emperor Taisho away to the palace to rest, Dashanyan let out a sigh of relief.

After holding it in for so long, I might as well hold it in for a few more minutes.After Taisho Emperor called him away, Dashanyan hurriedly called Uehara Yusaku on his back foot, and told him to act according to the plan immediately. After explaining the big event, he couldn't help but ran to the toilet with his pants in his hands. Before he got to the place, I just felt that when the chrysanthemum suddenly loosened, a soaring stench rushed out from the crotch.

In the afternoon of that day, led by the Japanese army and with the cooperation of half of the Japanese navy, the army of the three divisions set off from Fukuoka to North Korea, and marched to Kanto Prefecture through the Korean peninsula.On the surface, this is a military exercise by Japan, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the harbinger of Japan's war. After hearing the news, the Chinese government immediately summoned the Japanese ambassador and lodged a strong protest to the Japanese side.At the same time, Prime Minister Song Jiaoren urgently met with the British and French ambassadors, requesting that in the name of the member states of the Allied Powers, all members of the Allied Powers should unite with the members of the Allied Powers to warn Japan of this behavior. If a war breaks out between China and Japan, Japan will bear all the consequences .

The arrogant Japanese ambassador had received domestic orders a long time ago, ignored China's protests at all, and kept saying that this was a normal military exercise by the Japanese side and had no intention of targeting China.On the contrary, the Japanese ambassador also brought up the Fengtian incident, demanding that the Chinese government deal with and compensate the Fengtian incident as soon as possible in accordance with the requirements of the Japanese side.

Britain and France, who learned of Japan's actions, apparently agreed with the Chinese government's request, and proposed to Japan on that day to limit the scope of military exercises to avoid stimulating the Chinese government.And in private, he also promised that the Chinese government would continue to exert influence on Japan, and try its best to control the situation to a minimum, so as to ensure the internal stability of the Allies.

This is the case, but in fact, the promises of Britain and France are not reliable, and they have no power to face the changes in the Far East with all their energy concentrated in Europe.Although, within the Allies, no one wants to see friction between China and Japan, but they have no ability to stop it, and the Japanese side is also seeing this, and they promised Britain, France and other countries beautifully, but their actions As before, on the second day, hundreds of thousands of troops from the three divisions of the Japanese Army crossed the strait and landed from North Korea with the support of the navy, and their troops pointed directly at Fengtian.
