As the saying goes, you have to be tough to make iron. If you want to maintain a good situation under the eyes of the Japanese, you must have enough reserves. This time to attack Japanese bonds, Zhang Tinglan invested a total of more than 7 million yen.
Three million of them were seized, more than two million were borrowed from Daosheng Bank, and the rest was taken out of their own pockets.
Although he didn't earn much, he still had more than two million, which added up to ten million. Zhang Tinglan had decided to convert five million of them into gold and stored it in the official bank. Together with the previous three tons of gold, together,
As a reserve fund. If the Guanyin is a giant ship, these golds are the ballast stones, which can ensure that the ship can cut through the waves and not capsize.
Then Zhang Tinglan spent another two million to purchase a batch of machines from the United States. These machines were mainly textile machines, generators, and some prospecting equipment. In addition, Zhang Tinglan reached an agreement with the Americans.
In the cooperation agreement, the United States provides machines, and Fengtian Machinery Bureau produces gun stocks and magazines for the United States.
The United States has long become the largest arsenal for Britain and France, with its production capacity at full capacity, providing a steady stream of arms. At this time, the labor force in the United States was very tight, and the cost was also high. Zhang Tinglan proposed to use Fengtian’s cheap labor and resources to help
The United States shares a portion of what is insignificant.
This proposal immediately attracted the interest of the United States. The nature of capital is to pursue profits. Allowing Fengtian to share a part will not only relieve pressure and reduce costs, but also extend its tentacles to the Northeast. Americans will not fail to see this.
Benefits, they quickly chose the stock and magazine.
There is nothing difficult about these two things. Even if you can make them, you are still a long way from producing guns. And the Americans are only tentative. If Fengtian is worthy of support, the United States is even willing to support some munitions factories to produce military weapons.
Things such as tents, military uniforms and quilts are directly exported to Russia.
Zhang Tinglan gets some soup from the United States, not just for a little profit, but the most realistic consideration is to provide cover for the bullet production line. Don't look at Zhang Tinglan putting the bullet production line under the nose of Nan Daying. Over time, it will be exposed.
, Japanese people’s noses are so sharp.
Through cooperation with the United States, Zhang Tinglan can legitimately introduce a batch of American machines, set up a munitions factory, and then put the production line in it. The looted maintenance equipment can also be put in and used openly, even if the Japanese see it.
There is no way to say it was stolen.
The influence of the United States gave Zhang Tinglan more choices and more ease. At this time, Zhang Zuolin, who had gone to Fengtian and Jilin to suppress bandits, rushed back to Fengtian.
In the past month, Lao Zhang has really worked hard. Wherever the army went, all small and large cottages were wiped out, and thousands of bandits were killed and captured. In addition, they also focused on investigating Russian expatriates. Those with legal status were fine.
Yes, there was none. Lao Zhang was not polite and arrested them all.
There is a long border between China and Russia. Especially in winter, Heilongjiang will freeze. Border residents on both sides can step on the thick ice to reach the other side's territory very easily.
Since Russia entered the First World War, its domestic burdens have suddenly increased. With conscription of soldiers and grain, and increased taxes, the life of the Russians has become increasingly difficult. As a result, a large number of Russian illegal immigrants crossed Heilongjiang and went to the Northeast to seek life. This group of Russians
People don't know how to do anything, so they just form "bands" of various sizes and make a living by robbing families and homes.
After Lao Zhang led his army to the north, he carried out a key massacre of these Russian bandits. He was not polite at all. He killed them when they needed to be killed and arrested them when they needed to be arrested. Moreover, Yang Yuting also gave Lao Zhang ideas and framed them from time to time.
So Lao Zhang reported to the press every now and then that some ammunition was found in a bandit's den somewhere. After verification, it was found that it was on the military column that was robbed. A few days later, another batch of 38-year-old Gael was found, who may have been killed.
of Japanese soldiers.
The Japanese also sent personnel to check and found that what Lao Zhang said was indeed correct. These items were on the military columns. Gradually, the Japanese also believed that the military columns might have been robbed by Russian bandits.
After the case occurred, the most suspicious target of the Japanese was actually the Russian government. According to the Japanese's little thinking, it was the Russian government's troops who put on makeup and robbed the military columns. As for the motive, maybe the Russians were poor and crazy, and they robbed
If you do this, you can save a lot of money on arms.
It's just that Russia is Britain's most important ally now, and Britain will never allow Japan to attack Russia. Therefore, the Japanese can only vent their anger on China and want to get enough benefits from China. This is pure bullying and fear of force.
However, various evidences indicate that it may indeed have been done by Russian gangsters, and it has nothing to do with the Russian government. This made the Japanese so depressed that they vomited blood.
Zhang Zuolin's troubles were the same as Meng Enyuan's in Jilin. Lao Yuan had sent orders several times, asking Meng Enyuan to conduct a thorough investigation to find the real culprit. After some troubles, Meng Enyuan discovered a secret Russian manor inside.
We found some machines for printing banknotes, as well as many counterfeit coins, including rubles, Japanese yen, commemorative notes, lucky notes, etc.
In addition, genuine 100,000 yen coins were found. The seals on them were all from Zhengjin Bank, proving that these yen were most likely listed by the robbed army. The Japanese were also alarmed. This was definitely a major discovery.
They immediately joined the investigation.
The Japanese worked much more carefully than Meng Enyuan. They carefully turned the manor upside down. In the basement, they found a lot of ashes left by burning letters. Through the remaining papers, they found that these were Russian letters.
.
At this time, the Japanese were completely misled. They immediately reported to the Kanto Governor's Office and the Japanese government that all signs turned out to be true. There was a powerful Russian opposition organization in the Northeast. The previous high-profile counterfeit currency case was
These people did it.
They then robbed Japanese arms, first money, and then guns. These guys had reached the level of lawlessness. The Japanese government immediately contacted Tsarist Russia and informed the Russians of the situation.
Previously, the Russians had all kinds of doubts about the real murderer. They knew that it was definitely not his fault. Even the Russians believed that this was a trick directed and staged by Japan. The purpose was to dominate the three northeastern provinces while Russia had no time to look eastward.
The twenty-one chapters of time are not the embodiment of this ambition.
The goal was not achieved through negotiation, so the Japanese wanted to use violent means to seize it. As a result, they created the so-called carjacking case. Neither Russia nor Japan is a good guy. Each one has more sinister ideas than the other, and they both regard the other as the real culprit.
These two bandits rarely considered the possibility of China taking action. Perhaps in their eyes, China was just a piece of fat. In addition, they did not believe that the Chinese army could quickly eliminate a squadron of Japanese soldiers, although they were despised.
, but this is still a good thing for Fengjun.
The Tsarist Russian government did not expect that the opposition would be so powerful. They had money and arms. They could figure out what they would do next with their toes, so the Russians also started to mess around in the Far East and Heilongjiang and Jilin.
The officials in the Far East have long been rotten. There are countless peasant uprisings in various places, and there are also countless people who are dissatisfied with the government. From the beginning of the investigation, there was nothing like chicken feathers. Russia has successively arrested a large number of political prisoners.
No matter how hard the Russians tried, Lao Zhang's anti-bandit operation was still very effective. At least he demonstrated the strong determination and ability of the Chinese Communist Party to rectify public security. Japan's request for a large-scale increase of troops in the three northeastern provinces went bankrupt. In addition, Lao Zhang found out
The evidence strongly proves that the murderer is a Russian gangster.
It cleared up China's responsibilities to the greatest extent, and at the same time avoided direct confrontation between Japan and Russia. This result was also something the United States, Britain and other countries were happy to see. Therefore, the two countries adjusted their positions one after another and warned Japan not to arbitrarily expand its presence in China.
interests, and the threat of force is not allowed.
The United States and Britain both understood the principle of giving Japan a slap in the face. In order to appease Japan, they promised to provide Japan with some loans and food to solve the domestic rice turmoil. They were also willing to expand the amount of arms purchases. In particular, they helped persuade Japan
The Russians, continue to maintain the arms trade between the two countries.
When things have developed to this point, the possibility of Japan using force against China has basically disappeared. Yuan Shikai finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally passed another level. However, now that things have happened, Lao Yuan has become aware of the dangerous situation in the three eastern provinces.
A clearer understanding.
Caught between Japan and Russia, if there is even the slightest disturbance, the world will be in chaos. In a place like this, it is absolutely impossible to continue to use a loser like Duan Zhigui.
Even though Lao Yuan was unwilling in every possible way, he still wanted to set his sights on Zhang Zuolin. Perhaps only this guy with a beard could cope with various situations and keep the Northeast safe, but Lao Yuan was still unwilling to give in.
At this time, Master Zhang returned to Fengtian with all the dust in his body. Although Lao Zhang was not fighting outside these days, he read newspapers every day and sent telegrams to Zhang Tinglan to understand the situation. As the commander-in-chief of one party, Lao Zhang endured
The pressure is actually greater than that of Zhang Tinglan.
In the first few days, Lao Zhang could hardly sleep, his mouth was blistered, and his eyes were always red. Even Yang Yuting was no exception. Although Zhang Tinglan's sworn guarantee could turn the tide, disrupt the Japanese government, and ease the pressure on China.
But Zhang Zuolin was really unsure. After all, in their opinion, compared with Japan, Zhang Tinglan was even more disparate than an ant or an elephant, and it was simply out of proportion. But there was no other way, but to let Zhang Tinglan do the hard work.
, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor.
If you have a little hope, you should try your best to fight for it. You can't just watch Japan mobilize troops to the northeast and turn this fertile black land into their colony. As a result, in just one month, the prosperous Japan was destroyed
The prototype was restored, and the entire country fell into chaos.
After receiving the news of the rice riots in Japan, Zhang Zuolin almost dropped his eyes. Yang Yuting was also shocked and inexplicable. Such a powerful Japan was actually plotted by a young man less than twenty years old, and he directly pulled off his underwear.
What a strategy! What a calculation!
Yang Yuting prides himself on being resourceful and decisive, but compared to Zhang Tinglan, who turned his hands to make clouds and rain, and toyed with the powers such as Japan and Russia with applause, he was still far behind. This little Zhuge was completely convinced and even had an idea.
A trace of fear, such a person can only be a friend, never an enemy!
Lao Zhang also completely relaxed, and calmly dealt with the Russian bandits, and then returned to Fengtian with the victorious army and the Da Ma Golden Sword. Lao Zhang really showed his hard work this time, and Duan Zhigui even went out of the city to welcome him.
Lao Zhang still looked extremely humble and respectful to Duan Zhigui. He neither asked for credit nor complained. He even took the initiative to give the credit to Duan Zhigui, saying that it was all due to Duan Zhigui's leadership. His Highness Qian was also very satisfied.
However, when Lao Zhang returned to the Marshal's Mansion, he immediately summoned his old brothers, and Zhang Tinglan was also called over. After this period of time, Zhang Tinglan's status in Lao Zhang's heart also skyrocketed, and he became a real right-hand man.
"Tinglan, you have worked hard during this period. You have done such a big thing. I think you should be given a formal status. You can be the acting commander of the independent brigade first. After studying for a while, you will be promoted to a full member!"
The other people present were a little jealous, and they were given the position of group leader as soon as they came up. Why don't they surpass themselves in the future? They are really terrible!
"I don't agree!" At this moment, a voice full of anger shouted. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
