Wu Peifu and Feng Yuxiang, these are all people who are more attractive than the top! How many people can be seen in Beiyang? Now they are becoming brothers and brothers with Chang Ruiqing, a rising star!

Chang Ruiqing hurriedly called the two of them to use tea in the room, and followed him closely. In fact, he was the groom's official today, so he could just greet him as usual, and there was no reason to let the groom's official chat with him. However, the warlords of Chang didn't care about this and could not miss the opportunity to make friends with Wu Peifu and Feng Yuxiang.

There were several Beiyang officers in the room, all of which were from the garrisons and the Army Department around Beijing City. Among them, Li Jinbao, the commander of the 13th Division, was also there. He came on behalf of Li Jincai today and even gave a generous gift. Wu Shi and Zhao Zhen were also here, accompanying a group of Beiyang officers to speak. When they saw Chang Ruiqing and the others walking in, they all stood up and bowed and greeted each other. After a long period of greetings, they each sat down.

"Brother Yaoru," he saw Wu Peifu's serious face and nodded to Chang Ruiqing: "I heard that my brother told Xu Youzheng and Duan Zhi that he would take advantage of the Russian civil unrest to send troops to recover Outer Mongolia, and also let the supplementary regiment of the 31st Mixed Brigade join the army to recover Outer Mongolia. Is there any such thing?"

Chang Ruiqing suddenly realized when he asked Yan. No wonder Wu Peifu looked down on him as a junior. It turned out that it was because of this. He nodded solemnly: "It is true that the revolution in Russia is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. If we do not recover Outer Mongolia at this time, we will regret it in the future."

Wu Peifu smiled and said coldly: "But why did you propose to leverage power from Japan? Let the Japanese intervene in Outer Mongolia, wouldn't it be that the front door drives tigers and the back door attracts wolves?"

As soon as these words were said, everyone's faces changed, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. Chang Ruiqing smiled helplessly: "This Japanese wolf, we will come to Outer Mongolia if we don't recruit them! Instead of doing that, it's better to borrow some strength from them and take Outer Mongolia back as soon as possible... The Russian Revolution will not continue to be revolutionized endlessly! So the time left for us will not be too abundant."

Wu Peifu frowned slightly, as if he was carefully analyzing Chang Ruiqing's answer. Beiyang Central is very brave to the outside world. If there were no Japanese support, Outer Mongolia would have delayed things. He would never have cut the mess quickly. In less than two years, he would not have done it! By then, the civil strife in Russia would have ended long ago... Chang Ruiqing's answer made some sense, but it was not particularly sufficient.

Feng Yuxiang suddenly sighed and interrupted, "Why do you have to be Japan? You can have your own way of doing things in China, and the British and American powers can also contact us. Why bother to find an Eastern overlord who is so close and ambition is well-known to everyone? Brother Yaoru will not understand the principle of getting along with each other from afar, right?"

After hearing Feng Yuxiang's words, most people in the room nodded, as if they were quite agreeing. Chang Ruiqing smiled bitterly in his heart: "If the British and American powers really can count on it, the National Government will not go to Taiwan! Everyone knows that Feng Yuxiang is now pro-American, and often goes to the church of the American-Israeli Association to listen to lectures, but why did he kiss the Soviet Union in the future? It's not that Americans are unreliable for aid!"

Chang Ruiqing smiled bitterly, then glanced at Wu Peifu, who was expressionless, and shook his head and said, "General Huanzhang, it is precisely because the Japanese have ambitions for China that they are willing to invest! Britain and the United States have little ambitions for China, so they will not invest much, and their reactions are extremely slow... For Outer Mongolia, they may have to consider Russia's attitude more! If we ask Britain and the United States for help, they will not support us before the end of the European war! But if we wait until the end of the European war, we will say whether there is still a chance!"

He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and glanced at the people in the room, including Wu Shi, all of whom were hesitant. Chang Ruiqing smiled and then said, "Maybe you think that the Russian civil turmoil may not end so soon, or they have not finished fighting by the end of the European war! If that is true... we should contact Japan even more! The reason why our China attracts Japan's covetous is because of civil turmoil! If Russia also starts to be in chaos, East and West Siberia has 6.8 million square kilometers of land, with a sparse population and rich resources. How can the Japanese not be jealous? We should also lead Japan there... If Japan and Russia make a deadly grudge, we can rest assured!"

Wu Peifu nodded and looked at Chang Ruiqing's eyes again. There was a rare glimmer of appreciation. At present, the various military leaders and politicians in China did not dare to plot against the great powers like this! But he still did not completely let go: "Outer Mongolia has no force, so if you want to recover there, my Sixth Brigade is enough! The Japanese can obtain rights and interests from Outer Mongolia with just verbal support, which is really a loss-making deal!"

Chang Ruiqing looked up and glanced at Wu Peifu, and asked back: "Outer Mongolia is easy to obtain but difficult to defend, and it is rich and poor, so it cannot support the army, and there is no future for development... Is your General Ziyu willing to conquer Mengjiang forever?" Without waiting for Wu Peifu to answer, he sighed again: "Brother, I will not! Otherwise, a brigade of brothers will be enough to protect this land, and there is no need to borrow the power of Japan!"

Wu Peifu was speechless. Even if he was willing to conquer Mongolia forever, Cao Kun would not agree to throw the Sixth Brigade into a place like Outer Mongolia where birds do not shit! As for Feng Yuxiang, he lowered his head and did not speak. Beautiful words are easy to say, but it is not fun to be in Outer Mongolia for the rest of his life. The goal he and Lu Jianzhang are currently planning is the governor of Anhui! They are not the commander-in-chief of Outer Mongolia...

Chang Ruiqing smiled faintly and changed the topic: "General Ziyu and General Huanzhang, both of them are my Beiyang seniors and the best in the army. This southern expedition to unify China is naturally indispensable... When China is unified, are you still afraid of the Japanese ambitions? Even if you give up the rights and interests now, there will always be a way to recover them! I wonder what you two think?"

"That's natural!" Feng Yuxiang said firmly. He was the first among the "peace of the Lord" in Beiyang in history. I don't know if he has the intention of being peace now?

"I hope this is the case!" Wu Peifu smiled deeply, as if he was not interested in Nanzheng. There was a faint look of worry in his eyes. He had been on the front line of fighting with the southwest forces in recent years. It can be said that he was free to give up and knew the strength of the southwest army very well.

Although they are generally inferior to the Beiyang Army, the gap in combat power between the two sides is gradually narrowing! Moreover, the most powerful ones in the Beiyang Army were only five divisions trained in the late Qing Dynasty (the first town of Beiyang was the Eight Banners Masters, which was not useful). Now they are stationed in various places and have their own territory, most of them have begun to enjoy the blessing of the Qing Dynasty! Among them, the Second Division and the Sixth Division were controlled by Feng Guozhang's confidants. One is stationed in Hubei and the other is in Jiangsu, so they will definitely not really work. Although the Fourth Division and the Fifth Division are controlled by Duan Qirui's people, are they willing to leave Shandong and Zhejiang to fight against the southwest? Now, the rich family man with wealthy families in Beiyang, most of them are barefoot paupers in the southwest! Letting the rich family man fight paupers, this battle is a bit unstoppable!

Inside the room, the three Beiyang brigade commanders had already finished their main affairs. When they were about to compliment each other for a high hat, they heard a voice from someone outside: "The Deputy Commander of the Army, Lieutenant General Xu Shuzheng is here! Major General Shirihachiro of the Japanese Embassy in China is here!"

Sakashiri Hachiro and Xu Shuzheng came together? Chang Ruiqing smiled bitterly. It seemed that he could not escape the pro-Japanese hat! But it was not easy to neglect. He hurriedly bowed to the distinguished guest all over the room and said, "Please accompany me." Then he gritted his teeth and walked to the door with a smile.
