The purpose of the treaty proposed by Masasuke Akajiri is very simple. As long as this thing is signed, the entire three eastern provinces will become the possession of the Japanese, and the construction results of the past few years will also be swallowed up by the Japanese.
Guo Songling read it several times, and he was very clear about the powerful relationship. He really wanted to cooperate with the Japanese, rely on Japanese power, and help him fight against Zhang Tinglan, but Guo Songling was not willing to really be a slave to the Japanese.
It's okay to get some economic benefits and occupy some markets, but once you hand over everything to the Japanese, you won't even be able to be an emperor. You will directly become a slave of the Japanese and the most shameful traitor.
!
Guo Songling did not want to bear the name of traitor. In fact, Guo Songling was a very proud person in his heart. He looked down upon Zhang Zuolin, who was born in a reckless way. He also didn't care much about Zhang Tinglan. They just had better luck. If given
If I have a chance, I can definitely surpass them, govern the three eastern provinces better, and even change the destiny of the entire country.
Guo Songling also had great ambitions, otherwise Zhang Xueliang would not admire him so much. However, facing these conditions, Guo Songling's heart became completely cold. He had just occupied Fengtian and was about to sign such a treasonous treaty. What ambitions could he have?
ah.
"Mr. Consul General, this treaty is too harsh. It's better to change it, otherwise Guo will not dare to sign it."
Akajiri Shosuke sneered: "Guo Sang, you are a smart man. You should know what it means that the situation is stronger than the person. With your strength, even Fengtian cannot control it. Zhang Tinglan left a group of students and workers behind, and then
It leaves you in a hurry. How can you fight him without the support of the empire?"
Akajiri Masuke stood up from the chair, like a master looking at his slave. He walked past Guo Songling, patted him on the shoulder very arrogantly, and said contemptuously: "Guo Sang, signed the treaty,
The empire can immediately send troops to help you fight. Remember, if you cooperate with the empire, you can get everything. If you don't cooperate with the empire, you will only have one way to die, life or death. It is up to you to choose!"
After Akajiri Masasuke finished speaking, he looked at Guo Songling with confidence. At this time, Yu Wendian jumped out and said with a flattering smile: "Mr. Consul General is wise and what he said makes sense. Commander-in-Chief Guo knows the current affairs.
There is an old saying that a sage is one who adapts to circumstances. We have reached this stage now. Who else can we rely on besides the Empire of Japan? Those who have achieved great things since ancient times have not adhered to trivial matters. You cannot be with those confused scholars.
Learn, at critical moments, you have to be ruthless."
"Yes, Mr. Yu is absolutely right." Xu Youfang said with a smile: "Don't worry about selling out the country or not. As long as we can take power and live a good life, we don't care if everyone else dies. In fact, I also want to
"But it's not necessarily bad to let the Japanese rule China directly. By then we will all be members of the Japanese Empire, we will all be Orientals, and we will no longer have to be looked down upon by others."
These two guys kept persuading Guo Songling, but when Guo Songling heard this, her head was completely confused. Is this what she wanted? In order to fight for power and gain, she completely turned into a traitor who bent her knees and betrayed her country?
He thought again of the three words in the treasury: regret too late! Those were definitely things that Zhang Tinglan intended to keep for himself. Indeed, by this time, it was really too late to regret. Could he just be a traitor?
Guo Songling took a look at the fatal treaty, with a look of painful struggle on his face. He barely suppressed the anger in his heart and asked tentatively: "Mr. Akajiri, is there no room for negotiation?
"
"Guo Sang, negotiation requires chips. What chips do you have to negotiate with me?"
Guo Songling was immediately speechless. Indeed, he really didn't have anything in his hands! He looked at Yu Wendian and Xu Youfang, two guys who looked like slaves, and his facial features began to become distorted. If he signed this treaty,
One day I will become such a hard-core traitor and become the group of people I despise the most.
Guo Songling suddenly grabbed the text of the treaty in his hand, used both hands to shred it instantly, and pieces of white paper fell to the ground.
"Guo Songling, what do you want to do?"
Yu Wendian shouted loudly, and Guo Songling glanced at him contemptuously and sneered: "Even if Guo will inevitably be defeated and his head will be left here, I will not sign such a treasonous treaty. I am a seven-foot man and cannot bow down.
,Be a slave to the Japanese!”
Speaking of this, Guo Songling glanced at Akajiri Shosuke and said with a sneer: "Only now did Guo know the bloody nature of the commander-in-chief. Let me tell you, in this fertile land of the three northeastern provinces, there has never been a shortage of brave men who died generously.
Even if the commander-in-chief is killed by you first, more people will come forward, and you can’t even think about occupying this land!"
After Guo Songling finished speaking, he turned around and left the conference room without looking back. Akashiri Masasuke's face had turned livid. He never thought that Guo Songling would play such a trick. At this time, he was unwilling to sign this
A treaty, does he want to die?
"Mr. Akajiri, Guo Songling is ignorant of life and death and is unwilling to cooperate with the Japanese. The villain is willing to sign and I am willing to serve the Empire of Japan!" Yu Wendian said and knelt down in front of Akajiri Masasuke.
"The villain has a loyal heart and has no second thoughts towards the Japanese Empire!"
Xu Youfang originally wanted to express his position, but he had not yet acted like Yu Wendian, so he was half a step too late and had to kneel behind Yu Wendian and said: "I am also willing to be loyal to the Empire of Japan. Please give me a chance.
.”
Akajiri Masasuke glanced at these two guys and snorted coldly in his nose: "You two trash, what use are you, get out of here!"
Akajiri Masasuke kicked Yu Wendian in the face, causing blood to spurt out from his mouth and nose, making him miserable. When these two guys saw that they were really angry, they all rolled and crawled out.
Just when Akajiri Masasuke was angry, one of his subordinates suddenly ran over in a hurry and delivered a telegram to him. As soon as Akajiri Masasuke saw it, his eyes widened and he looked afraid.
A look of confidence.
The telegram clearly stated that Zhang Tinglan had eliminated the rebels in Kan Chaoxi, and the large army was preparing to return to Fengtian. Just after reading the news, another intelligence came from North Manchuria, saying that the border guards had defeated the rebels. Zhang Zuoxiang dispatched
Sun Anhu led the army southward, with the goal of Fengtian.
Although the Japanese did not allow Fengjun to use the South Manchuria Railway, they could only block it for a while. Fengjun would definitely detour south. It could be said that the two armies would soon appear in Fengtian. By then, Guo Songling would no longer be able to hold on.
Already.
The Japanese originally did not expect these rebellions to replace Zhang Tinglan, but they thought that if the rebels could hold on, preferably for a month or two, the domestic debate in Japan would be over. And then in the name of protecting overseas Chinese and maintaining local stability
, the Japanese were able to send troops, but Fengjun's counterinsurgency speed was far beyond imagination. Within three to five days, the two groups of rebels were defeated one after another, and Guo Songling was in danger.
Akajiri Shosuke weighed the situation again and again and hurriedly sent electricity to the Kwantung Army to let them decide what to do with the matter at hand! In fact, to put it bluntly, it meant letting the Kwantung Army do it alone.
The Japanese have always had a tradition of subjugating superiors. In their view, this is not a treason, but a positive performance that is worthy of praise. Many things in history were initiated by the lower class of Japan. Then they kidnapped the entire country of Japan, and also
All invested in it.
A country that does not have an overall strategy, but allows the people below to do whatever they want. This is the tragedy of Japan. But Akajiri Shosuke obviously does not see it this way at this time, and he will not be affected by the fate of the foreign emperor! If we wait until the bureaucrats in Tokyo come up with a clue
, Fengjun has long since stabilized.
Moreover, Akajiri Shosuke also knew that Zhang Tinglan was younger, more courageous, and more capable than Zhang Zuolin. For him to take charge of the three eastern provinces would be ten times more dangerous than Zhang Zuolin.
Now is the only chance. The Japanese have no choice but to go into battle naked and directly send troops to deal with Zhang Tinglan. His telegram was passed to the Kwantung Army. The current commander of the Kwantung Army is Lieutenant General Kawai Cao. This guy is a student of the eighth phase of the Japanese Army University.
Tanaka Yiichi is his classmate.
Hehe Cao was also an active invader of China. After receiving the telegram, he paid great attention to it. He had been preparing for war since the Fengjun rebellion. Now after receiving the news, he could no longer sit still. He absolutely could not
Let Fengjun stabilize.
He immediately mobilized a brigade of the Kwantung Army, boarded a train, and headed straight for Fengtian. The Japanese were most accustomed to conducting surprise attacks. The headquarters only announced the news after the Kwantung Army had already dispatched.
They claimed that in order to deal with the incident in Fengtian and to ensure Japan's interests in China and the safety of its nationals, the Japanese Kwantung Army decided to send troops to maintain public security. They asked the squadrons along the way not to misunderstand, not to obstruct, and to cooperate with Japan's actions.
They were all high-sounding words, but behind them was revealed a very terrible news, that is, the Japanese officially intervened in the civil war in Fengjun. The rebellion had gone too far, and the Japanese took the opportunity to send troops!
What added fuel to the fire was Japan's actions, which made the already chaotic and confusing situation even more out of control and developed in a completely unpredictable direction.
The whole of China was once again shocked. People of insight stood up and called on the Duan government to take effective measures to avoid the loss of the three northeastern provinces and resolutely opposed the Japanese sending troops. However, it is regrettable that the Beiyang government remained silent, as if they did not know.
This thing is average.
Everyone is sweating for Fengjun. They don’t know whether they can survive this difficulty. Many people no longer have confidence in Fengjun. They have just experienced a rebellion and are experiencing serious internal strife. How can they resist the Japanese? Fengjun really
When it comes to life and death, it all depends on how much of the country’s interests are sold in the end!
At this time, Liaoyang suddenly entered a state of martial law. A large number of Feng troops poured into Liaoyang City. They not only took control of the city defense, but also moved in heavy artillery. The muzzle of the artillery was facing the train station. In charge of the South Manchuria Railway
The Japanese garrison were all dumbfounded. They never imagined that there would be a huge Feng army hiding in Liaoyang. You must know that Liaoyang and Fengtian are not far away. Why didn't these troops go to Fengtian to deal with the rebels, but concentrated on waiting here?
Woolen cloth?
The person in charge of commanding this force was Jiang Dengxuan. He brought with him the most important elite soldiers in Fengtian, totaling more than 13,000 people.
When faced with the crisis of all parties, Jiang Dengxuan also actively requested a fight. Unexpectedly, Zhang Tinglan did not give him this opportunity at all. Instead, he handed over the main force to him and asked him to just garrison Liaoyang and stand still.
Zhang Tinglan repeatedly told him that no matter what happened, even if Fengtian fell, he should not leave Liaoyang. Jiang Dengxuan didn't quite understand Zhang Tinglan's plan at first, but now, Japan has dispatched the Kwantung Army. Jiang Dengxuan is finally completely impressed. If it weren't for Zhang Tinglan,
If you prepare in advance, you may be caught off guard!
"Commander-in-Chief Zhang only brought a few thousand troops to fight the rebellion, but he left everyone in Liaoyang. The purpose is very simple, which is to let us block the Japanese. As long as we have three inches of energy, we cannot let the Japanese enter Fengtian."
The officers present had long since lost their resentment and confusion, and all of them puffed up their chests.
"We will never betray the commander-in-chief's trust, follow Commander-in-Chief Jiang's arrangements, and fight Japan to the end!"
"Okay, everyone is ready for battle according to the plan. All guns are aimed at the railway. As long as the Japanese military train dares to pass through Liaoyang, I will bomb them into scum!" (To be continued...)
