The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 221 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
Faced with Zhang Jinghui's series of words, several people exchanged glances but said nothing.

However, knowing who Mr. Zhang Wu is, he could tell at a glance what they were up to.

He Yongqing exchanged glances with Zhang Hanqing, waved his hand and said, "By the way, Maochen, do you have any tactics lessons to teach later?"

He drove the two men out of the door. To put it bluntly, he saw through the intrigues and planned to discuss with Zhang Jinghui how to stabilize the situation in Jinzhou.

In fact, for them, this study tour was similar to the inspection tours in ancient times;

Especially him, before he came out, Zhang Zuoxiang arranged for him to look after the young master and to take good care of the general...

And there are some things that cannot be said to them.

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes and said, "That's right! I almost forgot about this. Let's go back first."

After saying this, he dragged Zhang Hanqing out.

"Why are you in such a hurry to pull me? It's obvious that Uncle Wu still has something to say to us."

When he walked out of Zhang Jinghui's office, he happened to meet a few officers who were busy with documents. Jiang Cheng raised his eyelids and glanced at him, pretending to be calm, then silently raised his chin to him to indicate that he would go out first.

"You mean, my father will agree to the Japanese's request to allow them to station troops in the county?"

It was not until the two of them chose a relatively secluded place that Zhang Hanqing listened to Jiang Cheng's analysis and then said, "It's unlikely, right? Wouldn't it mean that we just took control of the county and now have to share power with the Japanese?"

Jiang Cheng looked up at him meaningfully: "It seems that you, Hanqing, have also thought of it."

"But now we are facing internal and external troubles, I am afraid I have no choice - if we can take control of the entire area around Jinzhou, Feng Province will be truly peaceful."

Seeing that Zhang Hanqing seemed a little unconvinced, Jiang Cheng continued, "When the commander-in-chief raised his army in western Liaoning, his control over eastern Liaoning and the Shanhaiguan area was actually relatively weak."

"Temporarily take advantage of the Japanese and stabilize Feng Province, so that we can take the entire three northeastern provinces into our hands."

At this point, he raised his hand, squeezed the other's shoulder and whispered, "Hanqing, our master will definitely be a man who lives in the Northeast in the future... You don't have to worry about these little details."

"Don't forget, there is also the Meng family."

Looking back at Jiang Cheng again, Zhang Hanqing's eyes quickly became more gentle.

"Let's go, Hanqing. We came to Jinzhou mainly to study. Let's go find our instructor!"

…………

Just as Zhang Hanqing and Jiang Cheng went to find their large group of cadets, Yang Yuting returned to the conference room.

The hall with large European-style floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides is exceptionally bright, and the long table covered with dark green velvet gives people a warm and solemn feeling.

However, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was extremely solemn, especially for the three Japanese sitting opposite the Fengtian Army, whose dark faces seemed to be dripping with ink.

"Consul Okawa, this is giving me, Zhang Yuting, a difficult problem, haha."

The commander-in-chief sitting at the end of the long table stroked his beard and smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits. "Capturing people is easy, but the issue of garrisoning troops is probably going to be very difficult!"

"Although I am honored to be the governor of Fengtian Province, the power of speech is still controlled by the people in the capital..."

When Yang Yuting entered, the Marshal paused for a few seconds;
After the two sides confirmed each other's eyes, he continued with a cunning smile, "Your country has never sent troops into the city before."

"I can't explain to the capital either--" As the Japanese consul, Okawa Masao intends to make a lot of money from Zhang by taking advantage of the war on the South Manchuria Road;
First occupy the Goubangzi county seat, and then slowly rely on the railway advantages to interfere with mining ports, industrial and agricultural products, power development and other industries, and finally achieve the goal of eroding Feng Province.

But how smart was the Marshal? He immediately gave him a firm and firm rebuff: I can't do anything about it. Our Beiyang commander-in-chief doesn't agree!
"Mr. Zhang, we respect you as the highest official in Fengtian - but the public security situation is really worrying now,"

"First it was the South Manchuria Road and then the urban area. Even the lives and property of our compatriots are threatened!"

"Under such circumstances, if we do not send more troops to the county town to ensure safety, I am afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Junsheng, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly sneered: "Mr. Dachuan, are you kidding? Your country can't even deal with a few local bandits, how can you still think about maintaining law and order?"

Such ironic words immediately triggered a burst of laughter from senior Fengtian Army officers including Zhang Zuoxiang and Sun Liechen, as if they had discussed it beforehand.

The Japanese looked a little embarrassed. Okawa opened his mouth to speak with resentment, but the Marshal suddenly spoke first:
"If you want to station troops, we must at least negotiate with our superiors... In addition, if your country requires the stationing of troops on the grounds of protecting overseas Chinese;"

"So will all the overseas Chinese living in the Northeast ask for garrison? Especially the Russians, will they also leave such excuses?"

Looking at each other.

The Marshal knew it best. Even in the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese had gained a certain degree of advantage in the Northeast.

But judging from the "Three Kingdoms Returning Liaodong" incident, the Western powers, including the Russians, did not want Japan to gain more advantages in the Northeast.

Therefore, the Marshal brought out the Russians, to a certain extent, was also "the fox borrowing the tiger's power to bully others", using the Western powers who also coveted the Northeast region to scare these overly greedy invaders.

Sure enough, these words made the Japanese devils look even uglier.

Yes, we have caught a golden opportunity to seize territory, are we going to let it go?

"But I think even if we don't send troops to the county, maintaining law and order and protecting overseas Chinese are still very important."

While Dachuan was racking his brains to find an excuse, Sun Liechen suddenly said loudly, "I heard that your army was attacked in the Jinzhou section more than once or twice."

Wu Junsheng also said immediately: "Yes, even I, who am out fighting bandits, know about this..."

"Hey, Master, have all the bandits from western Liaoning and Jilin fled to the Jinzhou section?"

Sun Liechen also said immediately: "That's right! I heard that my second brother was very effective in suppressing the bandits and was also rewarded in the capital."

"I said, if it is possible, would you like to... hey, lead the troops south to help our colleagues in the Jinzhou section to clear up these problems?"

The two of them sang the same tune and were just about to bring a large army to Jinzhou to reinforce the "fight against bandits."

The more the Japanese listened, the more they felt they were short of breath, especially Okawa Masao, who was extremely furious.

"That's enough, that's enough, you're going too far! This is someone else's railway, they should manage it themselves!"
