Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

"If I don't care about you, who else can I care about?"

Zhang Yunwan looked at Ye Yunfei tenderly.

Ye Yunfei smiled when he heard this and said, "It's great to have you by my side."

Zhang Yunwan said: "I came here today and brought you some good news. Do you want to hear it?"

"good news?"

Hearing Zhang Yunwan's words, Ye Yunfei asked curiously, "What good news?"

Zhang Yunwan said: "My eldest brother already knows the situation in Shanghai. He said that if you need help, he will help you."

Ye Yunfei's pupils narrowed when he heard this, and he said, "Your brother wants to help me, are you telling the truth?"

Zhang Yunwan said: "Of course it is true. Don't forget that your Longmen and our Northeast Army have reached a cooperative relationship. We are partners. Since we are partners, when one party is in trouble, the other party will definitely help."

"Besides, I am yours now. With our relationship, how can I just ignore you if you get into trouble?"

"So, if you are willing, our Northeast Army will send troops to help you."

Zhang Yunwan spoke sincerely, and Ye Yunfei also knew that what she said was true.

The Northeast Army and Longmen are indeed partners, and he and Zhang Hanqing also have a good relationship.

In addition, he and Zhang Yunwan now have a real relationship. No matter from which point of view, the Northeast Army will help him.

Thinking of this, Ye Yunfei said, "What did your brother say?"

Zhang Yunwan said: "My eldest brother said that as long as you need it, the Northeast Army will provide you with all the help you need. It depends on what kind of help you want."

Ye Yunfei said: "Okay, in that case, thank your brother for me."

"I don't need your brother to really send troops to help. All I need is for your brother to publish a statement in newspapers across the country that the Northeast Army and Longmen have reached a cooperative relationship. As long as Wu Fatian attacks Shanghai, the Northeast Army will send out a large army to wipe out Wu Fatian's troops."

"This statement is enough."

After hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Zhang Yunwan said, "Is it just a statement? If it's just a statement, I'm afraid it won't be able to suppress Wu Fatian."

"My brother means that he can really mobilize a large army. As long as Wu Fatian dares to attack Shanghai, he can launch an attack from behind and deal a fatal blow to Wu Fatian."

"Longmen and the Northeast Army joined forces to attack from both sides. Even if they couldn't kill Wu Fatian, they could at least injure him so badly that he wouldn't be able to recover for decades."

Ye Yunfei looked at Zhang Yunwan and said, "Your brother is going to bring a large army to Shanghai. It's thousands of miles from the northeast to Shanghai. Your brother is mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops to come to Shanghai to help me."

"Isn't this a bit too much of a fuss? Moreover, such a large-scale long-distance march would cost an astronomical amount of military funds. Is it worth it?"

"As long as your brother announces a military deployment, Wu Fatian will have to consider his own strength if he wants to attack Shanghai."

"So, if the problem can be solved in the simplest way, that would be great. There would be no need for your brother to mobilize the army."

Zhang Yunwan said: "Of course there is no problem with issuing a statement, but I am worried that a statement alone cannot control the situation."

"If my brother had sent troops directly, all the troubles would have been solved."

Ye Yunfei said: "As for sending troops, is it your brother's idea or yours?"

Zhang Yunwan said: "My brother's original words were that as long as you need it, he can provide all the help, including sending troops."

"So, as long as you ask, there will be absolutely no problem for my brother to send troops."

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "In that case, let your brother issue a statement first and see what happens."

"If Wu Fatian withdraws his troops on his own initiative after receiving the statement, your brother won't have to go on such a long expedition."

"If Wu Fatian still insists on attacking Shanghai after reading the statement, your brother can send troops then."

“It all depends on the situation.”

Zhang Yunwan said: "Okay, then I'll tell my brother and ask him to issue a statement first."

"Ah."

Ye Yunfei nodded.

Afterwards, Zhang Yunwan left first to explain the situation to Zhang Hanqing.

Ye Yunfei, on the other hand, was in Lido, thinking about the situation.

He did not want the Northeast Army to send troops directly to Shanghai.

Although he and Zhang Hanqing reached a cooperation, and he had a good relationship with Zhang Hanqing.

However, he did not want anyone to set foot in Shanghai, including the Northeast Army.

Zhang Hanqing led hundreds of thousands of troops to Shanghai. If, at that time, the troops were stationed in Shanghai and refused to leave, it might become a problem.

There are many examples of letting wolves into the house in ancient China.

In this era of warlords, anything can happen.

Of course, it’s not that he doesn’t trust Zhang Hanqing, but he always tries to be safe.

He didn't want too many people to come to Shanghai.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the situation is not yet so dangerous that the Northeast Army must be dispatched.

As long as Zhang Hanqing issued a statement, he could guarantee that Wu Fatian would be cautious.

If Wu Fatian still insists on attacking Shanghai at that time, it will not be too late to send troops from the Northeast.

……

On the other side, Ding Li led more than 20,000 people and headed straight to the headquarters of the Tianlong Society in Shanghai.

The order he received today was to directly wipe out the Tianlong Society and leave no one alive.

Therefore, before sending 20,000 troops to the Tianlonghui headquarters, Ding Li stared at the Tianlonghui headquarters in front of him and said coldly: "Aim the tank guns at the Tianlonghui headquarters in front of me, and then open fire."

"Just blow up these houses in front of you."

This time he brought more than ten tanks.

At this time, more than ten tanks had completely surrounded the Tianlonghui headquarters and were ready to open fire at any time.

"Yes."

After Ding Li gave the order, all tanks had loaded their shells and were ready to fire at any time.

"Blast me."

Following Ding Li's order, more than ten tanks opened fire and more than ten shells were immediately fired towards the Tianlong Society headquarters in the front.

Boom, boom, boom...

In an instant, the Tianlonghui headquarters was blown to pieces.

Countless disciples of the Tianlong Society rushed out of the headquarters, each with a look of fear on their face.

Ding Li was already prepared.

"Open fire with all your heavy and light machine guns. Kill anyone who escapes from inside. If anyone escapes, we will hold you accountable."

Ding Li said sharply.

"Yes."

Twenty thousand Longmen disciples, countless heavy and light machine guns, all opened fire.

In an instant, bullets as dense as raindrops were fired continuously at the people running out of the Tianlong Society headquarters in front.

Every time someone ran out, they would kill him, and no one would be able to escape.

Countless screams were heard from the front, and the entire front of the Tianlong Society turned into purgatory.
