Chapter 232 The real enemy

Ji Jinchun suffered a sudden defeat. His reputation for many years was destroyed in one fell swoop. He was also very decadent. He had no face to command on the front line. He could only return to Fengtian and wait for Lao Zhang's fate. However, before leaving, Ji Jinchun

Chun still talked to Zhang Tinglan about her doubts.

"I would like to say that you are also aware of the situation of the 28th Division. Although its combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced, it is not that it cannot even deal with a bunch of rabble. However, it suffered a disastrous defeat. Do you know the reason?"

His words immediately attracted Zhang Tinglan's attention. In fact, before the war started, Zhang Tinglan thought about it repeatedly and never thought that Ji Jinchun would fail. Now when he heard his words, he immediately had doubts in his mind. Could there be a hidden secret in it?

"Uncle Ji, have you encountered a special situation?"

Ji Jinchun sighed, and then said: "Honestly, it's true. It stands to reason that Gao Shibi's old troops have been broken up and they are all a bunch of rabble, but their weapons and equipment are very sophisticated, including Japanese weapons, and we

When the two sides were fighting at a critical moment, suddenly a force of 200 to 300 men came out from the flanks. The attack was extremely sharp and penetrated our front line at once. The subsequent Jixi army came in and our entire line collapsed.

"

When Ji Jinchun said this, he also showed frustration on his face. He was very unwilling to accept this failure. From the beginning, there was a black hand manipulating behind the scenes. Ji Jinchun hadn't figured out what was going on yet.

He was defeated in a daze.

Zhang Tinglan also frowned. He turned around on the ground a few times and then said, "Uncle Ji, do you think this small force was sent by the Japanese?"

"Honestly speaking, to be honest, I think the possibility of the Japanese is very high. This group of people is well-trained, and their shooting is extremely accurate. From a distance of two hundred meters, our brothers were killed in large numbers, except for the Japanese

Apart from that, I really can’t think of any other possibilities, but I also can’t figure out why the Japanese did this. Could it be that they want to go to war with China directly?”

Zhang Tinglan's mind works much faster than Ji Jinchun's, and he is also clearer about the Japanese's plans. He already knew very well that it was probably the Japanese who saw that Zhang Zuolin was about to unify the three eastern provinces, so they couldn't wait to take action, and even directly dispatched

The combatants were just going into battle shirtless.

"Uncle Ji, please return to Fengtian as soon as possible and tell the commander exactly what happened. Let him be more vigilant and be prepared for contingency. This time things are a bit troublesome!"

Being able to get Zhang Tinglan to say the word "trouble" proved that this matter was definitely not a small matter. Ji Jinchun hurriedly agreed and then left for Fengtian, but Zhang Tinglan fell into thinking.

Judging from past experience, the Japanese have not yet finalized what strategy they should adopt against Zhang Zuolin, whether to win over or suppress Zhang Zuolin. Japan is also wavering, but one thing is undeniable. As Fengjun develops faster and faster, and

Conflicts with the Japanese are increasing.

Especially after the assassination, the Japanese were forced to give up the controlling power of the Benxihu Coal and Iron Company. This was like taking out the heart of the Japanese military. Moreover, they became increasingly wary of Zhang Zuolin, especially Lao Zhang.

After Jilin, the unification of the three eastern provinces was inevitable, and Heilongjiang would definitely not be able to stop Feng's army.

Under this situation, the Japanese will never want to see Zhang Zuolin completely controlling the three northeastern provinces. Once that time comes, whether it is bribery or restrictions, the cost will be far more than it is now. The Japanese are very concerned about these things.

Clearly, they stepped up their assistance to Xu Lanzhou, and at the same time helped Gao Shibi pull up the old army, hoping to use their hands to restrict the development of Fengjun.

Zhang Tinglan thought of this, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He still underestimated the influence of the Japanese. They had been operating in the three northeastern provinces for more than ten years, and their power was too strong. With just a few moves, they could change the balance of strength in the three northeastern provinces.

.

In fact, it was a mistake to let Bao Guiqing serve as the governor of Jilin. Lao Zhang also knew that he was not completely reliable, but he still sent him to Jilin. As a result, in the past one or two months, Bao Guiqing did not take any strong measures to disband the army.

The old Jilin army did not truthfully report the situation in Jilin to Zhang Zuolin, and Fengjun did not have time to mobilize. As a result, Gao Shibi was given a chance to breathe, and in the end he was feeding a tiger.

Another big mistake was that there was a problem in Heilongjiang this time. According to common sense, Fengjun should send the most powerful combat force to capture Xu Lanzhou directly in one go. However, in order to balance the interests of various departments of Fengjun, the attack task was handed over to

Ji Jinchun’s Twenty-eight Division.

This is underestimating the enemy, or even not knowing the enemy. Without knowing the details of the opponent, he thinks he has a chance of victory and rushes to send troops. Since ancient times, arrogant soldiers will be defeated. Fengjun made this mistake this time.

Zhang Tinglan thought about it and found that the situation in front of him was very unfavorable to Fengjun. The ultimate opponent he faced was no longer Gao Shibi and Xu Lanzhou, but the powerful Japanese Empire. Without sufficient countermeasures, let alone the unification of the three eastern provinces,

Even holding Jilin is difficult, and Fengjun may have to retreat to Fengtian.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tinglan hurriedly sent a secret message to his father, Zhang Zuoxiang, asking him to lead his troops to speed up and head north. At the same time, he sent his speculation to Zhang Zuolin, telling him to be careful.

While Zhang Tinglan was making active preparations, Zhang Tinglan welcomed two groups of fleeing guests. The first group was Heilongjiang Governor Zhu Qinglan, who accompanied Zhu Qinglan and his confidant Jiang Dengxuan. Zhang Tinglan had no impression of Zhu Qinglan.

, but he was still very clear about Jiang Deng's selection. This general who would also serve in the army in the future, scolded Guo Songling for betraying his master and was brutally killed when Guo Songling rebelled against him. He was considered to be a rare loyal person.

The two of them were in a very embarrassed state at this time. Each of their faces was covered with a thick layer of soot, just like the Kitchen Lord. When he saw Zhang Tinglan, Zhu Qinglan almost burst into tears.

"Xu Lanzhou, that bastard, just let his artillery bombard the commander's house. We almost lost our lives. If not for the cleverness of Staff Officer Jiang, we disguised ourselves as stokers, boarded the train, and escaped from Qiqihar. We would have been dead."

It’s somewhere else.”

Jiang Dengxuan on the side also said: "Xu Lanzhou is indeed too rampant. We have to meet Yu Shuai and ask him to come forward to uphold justice and completely wipe out Xu Lanzhou. If Yu Shuai can't make the decision, we will go to Beijing to find Premier Duan. I don't believe it."

No one can cure this bastard Xu Lanzhou!"

"Don't worry, you two. I can tell you on behalf of Yu Shuai that Feng Jun will never let Xu Lanzhou go, and Feng Jun is also strong enough to take him down. Don't worry."

"Brigadier Zhang, I have also heard in Heilongjiang that you are a young hero who used soldiers like a god and put down the rebellion in southern Liaoning like lightning. It is a good story. Now it is up to you to deal with Xu Lanzhou!"

Zhang Tinglan comforted Zhu Qinglan and Jiang Deng with a few words, and asked them to take a bath and rest first. Just after making arrangements for these two, someone else came over.

This group of people are some officials from Jilin, including Bao Guiqing and Guo Zongxi. Bao Guiqing is now so ashamed and angry that he no longer has the courage to meet others. He and Zhang Zuolin are playing tricks on each other and want to form their own faction, but they are confused and beaten by Gao Shibi.

He was bitten back, and the governor's throne he had just obtained was gone.

It can even be said that there will never be such an opportunity in the future. How can Bao Guiqing not regret it? In fact, Zhang Tinglan really wanted to go over and give Bao Guiqing a few words, but thinking about it, he is Zhang Zuolin's in-laws, and he is a junior.

With that qualification, I can only hold back my anger and have Bao Guiqing sent back to Fengtian. How to deal with it is left to Zhang Zuolin.

However, Zhang Tinglan kept Guo Zongxi here. He was familiar with the civil affairs of Jilin and knew the situation in various places. The Guo family was still a big family in Jilin. If they wanted to quell Gao Shibi, they could not do without his help.

"Governor Guo, I'd like to ask you to help me make more suggestions."

"Brigadier Zhang, there is nothing else to say. We are all one family. I also heard that Marshal Yu has asked the auxiliary commander to take charge of Jilin's military affairs. I will ask Brigadier Zhang to take more care of him in the future."

Zhang Zuoxiang became the acting governor of Jilin, and was naturally respected as the auxiliary commander. After Guo Zongxi found out, he was quite excited. If Zhang Zuoxiang could come to Jilin, Zhang Tinglan would definitely come to assist his father. The Guo family had already arranged with Zhang Zuoxiang some time ago.

Cooperation was obtained, but they did not expect that Zhang Zuoxiang would become their immediate boss so quickly.

"Governor Guo, I have just contacted Horvath, the commander-in-chief of Russia's Middle East Road Protection Army, and asked him to provide asylum to Jilin business people."

Gao Shibi gained power, and with his style, he would definitely liquidate the Jilin businessmen who had abandoned him and Meng Enyuan some time ago. Therefore, in order to protect the Jilin businessmen, Zhang Tinglan could only use Russian power to provide shelter to the Russians.

Zhang Tinglan has been carrying out smuggling activities for a year. The scale is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more Russian officials are controlling it. As the actual controller of the Middle East Road, Horvath has to deal with the two sides. Zhang Tinglan also gives him many benefits, including

This guy's mouth is full of oil.

"Brigadier Zhang, you are so thoughtful. I would like to thank you on behalf of the businessmen in Jilin!"

While Zhang Tinglan was planning, Gao Shibi led his men to fight towards the Jifeng border. Accompanying Gao Shibi was a very short and frustrated guy, almost a head shorter than Gao Shibi, but Gao Shibi faced him.

But he bowed his head and became half shorter.

"Gaosang, the physical condition of you Chinese people is so poor, and your willpower is almost worth mentioning. When the imperial warriors fought against the Russians, they often fought for more than ten consecutive days without ever complaining about being tired. Your soldiers were simply

Pig!"

"Yes, Mr. Yuzhi, we naturally cannot compare with the warriors of the Japanese Empire. If we want to defeat Fengjun and retake Fengtian, we must rely on Japan's help."

"Well, tell your men to speed up their march. Fengjun Zhang Zuoxiang's troops have begun to move north. We must get ahead of them, defeat the Fengjun vanguard and enter Fengtian!"

After Yu Zhixiong finished speaking, a smug smile appeared on his face: "In front of the warriors of the empire, Fengjun is just a chicken and a dog. Gao Sang, the empire has enough strength to let you replace Zhang Zuolin, and even become the king of the Northeast. As long as you are obedient and obedient, it will be fine."
