After years of training, Zhang Tinglan has long understood the realm of "what is fake and what is true is also false" and will never admit that there is such a thing as gold.
"I believe that all this should be due to wrong intelligence. In our era, if there are still people who dream of obtaining the legendary treasure, this can only be said to be too naive. Fengjun entered Russia to eliminate an army.
It is a very normal military action for the Russian army to be potentially hostile to us."
"No, the Tsar's gold is not a legend, but a real thing!" This time it was Powers who spoke. He was a special representative sent by the British. Despite the aura of the British Empire, this man was still completely arrogant.
.But Zhang Tinglan has not taken him seriously. The First World War has passed, and the down-and-out phoenix is worse than a chicken. The British are now in extreme embarrassment. They owe the Americans a huge sum of money, and they have to drag their exhausted bodies to carry out armaments.
Competition, no wonder they are so obsessed with gold.
Powers said: "The empire already has precise information. Kolchak brought a batch of gold and it has been transported to the Far East. Now it has fallen into the hands of Feng Jun. Inspector Zhang, I want to remind you
, Kolchak owes Britain a huge amount of arms money and must repay it, so this gold does not belong to Fengjun, you must hand it over unconditionally!"
Compared with shamelessness, the Japanese are not as good as the British enlightenment teacher. The arms they sold to Kolchak were good, but they were all in cash and were extorted at two or three times the price. Later, Kolchak got angry and
Accepted Fengjun's proposal and purchased arms from Fengjun.
As a result, now, the British are brazenly saying that Kolchak defaults on their arms payment. The British Empire is so big that it only depends on its face.
"Since you said Kolchak was carrying gold, you might as well find Mr. Kolchak and see what evidence he has."
"You?" Baller was immediately blocked by this sentence. Everyone wanted to get gold, but Kolchak became the biggest stumbling block. After the Czech Army captured him, they gave it to the majority party.
Most of them have been executed now, where can they be found?
Bowles rolled his eyes and said: "Inspector Zhang, you are using strong words. I think an investigation team must be set up, and the powers must join forces to investigate and find out the whereabouts of the gold."
"Any enemy who invades China's territory will be mercilessly attacked. Feng Jun will never let anyone prey on others. He just wants to find any excuse to violate China's sovereignty. That is wishful thinking!"
Feng Jun had just defeated the Japanese, carrying the majesty of victory. Zhang Tinglan would not be intimidated by big words. He directly and mercilessly rejected Bowles' proposal.
"Zhang, the United States has no intention of infringing on China's sovereignty!" Bakker's words indirectly denied Bowles' proposal. He smiled and said: "The gold issue should be investigated clearly, but I don't think this is the case.
The most important issue at hand. As a common ally against the majority party, we should coordinate relations. Preventing military conflicts, especially between China and Japan, and maintaining peaceful cooperation are the most important."
The United States became the world's richest man during World War I. Although they coveted that little bit of gold, they did not blindly see the mountain. They wanted to maintain the balance in the Far East. In the name of dealing with the majority party, China and Japan
All came under the control of the United States.
Bakker mentioned the Japanese. The Japanese Consul General Yoshida Shigeru on the side looked gloomy. His predecessor was Masasuke Akajiri. He had dealt with Fengjun several times, but Masasuke Akajiri never took advantage and was made disgraced. In the end, Japan
The government ended his term early and replaced him with Shigeru Yoshida.
Yoshida Shigeru is also famous in later generations. He was an important prime minister who laid the foundation for Japan after the war and laid the foundation for the economic boom. However, this guy actually slipped through the net. In the first half of his life, he actively interfered in China's civil war and searched for agents everywhere.
It’s so difficult to describe, but in the end he escaped trial and climbed to the high position of prime minister. It’s really a historical irony.
At this time, Yoshida Shigeru had not long been a diplomat, and it was at his most rampant. He stared at Zhang Tinglan arrogantly, and then said loudly: "If the empire and Fengjun want to cooperate, they must agree to two prerequisites. The first is to give the gold
The second step is to admit that the attack on the Imperial people was wrong and compensate the Empire for its losses. Otherwise, the Empire will never agree to any peace proposal."
Zhang Tinglan glanced at the representatives of the United States, Britain and France, and then said with a smile: "I reiterate, Fengjun has no gold at all, and naturally there is no problem of handing it over to Japan. But we might as well make an assumption. If there is gold, what will happen to it?
Who should I give it to?"
"Of course we must first compensate for the arms supplies. The British Empire government must not suffer losses." Powers also said loudly.
French representative Locke also said: "Yes, Kolchak also defaulted on France's huge loan arrears, which must be dealt with first."
When Yoshida Shigeru heard the opinions of Britain and France, his nose suddenly became angry. These two countries were so shameless that they even lost their skin for gold.
"The gold was taken by Fengjun first and robbed the empire. It has nothing to do with Britain and France. As for the issue of arms funds, we can postpone the discussion later."
Powers shook his head and said: "Mr. Yoshida Shigeru, you said the gold is from Japan. Do you have any proof? The original owner of this gold was the Russian government. Did you get it from the Russians?"
"The Russian tsarist government has been overthrown. Gold is an ownerless thing. Whoever gets it belongs to whoever gets it. The Imperial Army..." Yoshida Shigeru continued to speak, but suddenly felt something bad and hurriedly shut up.
Zhang Tinglan laughed and said: "Mr. Yoshida's meaning is really interesting. Those who are virtuous will live in it, and those who are without virtue will lose it. According to your statement, before you can get the gold, Feng Jun has already got it.
How can I say it belongs to you if I haven't even touched it?"
The three countries of Britain, France and Japan were dog-eat-dog, but they abdicated the responsibility of the Fengjun. Shigeru Yoshida's face turned red, and the veins on his forehead burst, and he said loudly: "The imperial government has a hundred thousand troops stationed in the Far East. This is the empire.
With confidence, the gold must be handed over to the imperial government, otherwise the empire will have no choice but to take tough measures to get back the gold that belongs to the empire!"
Bakker frowned and said hurriedly: "Mr. Yoshida, the United States insists on solving the problem peacefully. There should be no military conflict between China and Japan. Relying on military force alone to solve the problem will not help."
Bowles was also very dissatisfied with Japan's attitude. These little men were too greedy and wanted to eat alone. They didn't even give the British Empire a share. How could he agree? Therefore, he said: "The British Empire is also unwilling.
When seeing the use of violence to solve problems, both sides must carefully consider their attitudes."
The representatives of these countries sat together like dogs, but when it came to actual interests, they were like dogs, biting each other. If they were in chaos, it would also be a good thing for Fengjun.
Zhang Tinglan said: "We have no idea about the so-called gold issue. If someone wants to use such an unfounded thing as an excuse to invade Fengjun, we will definitely take decisive military action to defend China's sacred territory. We will never
Give in!"
When the negotiations reached this point, there was really no need to continue. Everyone had their own concerns and no common language, so they could only leave in a hurry.
After these guys left, Zhang Tinglan immediately called together his civil and military officials, informed everyone of the situation, and solicited everyone's opinions. Yang Yuting took the lead and said: "The Japanese are arrogant and unreasonable. We can only fight them hard and never retreat."
, I suggest adjusting the military deployment and targeting the Siberian Railway. The current military situation is in our favor. Most of the Japanese troops are in the Far East. Domestic troops still need to be mobilized. Once the war starts, the Fengjun must use the fastest speed to eat up the Far East.
Japanese troops, and then concentrated all their efforts to fight threats emerging from Korea and the sea."
Japan's current standing army is less than 300,000, and Siberian troops account for one-third, and they are the most elite forces. Once they are all wiped out, it will definitely be a fatal blow to Japan and give Feng an army an advantage.
.
"Whether they are willing or not, the Japanese have already threatened war, and we cannot compromise." Zhang Tinglan said seriously: "We must use strong actions to fight for peace instead of kneeling down and begging. The entire army must be ready for battle.
The Second Division and the Fourth Division of the Border Guard Army were transferred to the direction of Khabarovsk to assume an offensive posture and cut off the connection with the Japanese troops in the Far East at any time."
Japan's national strength is far stronger than that of Fengjun, but they are too greedy. They have troops all over thousands of kilometers in Siberia, which breaks the taboo of military strategists who spread their strength. Moreover, they are in a foreign land, and the Russian majority party is everywhere.
The guerrillas are surrounded by forces opposing them everywhere, and it is simply wishful thinking to escape quickly.
What Zhang Tinglan is most afraid of is that the Japanese, regardless of the loss of these soldiers, will carry out general mobilization and fight an all-out war with Fengjun. Once that point is reached, it will be a real competition for national strength. Fengjun is still far behind Japan, and the chance of winning is really slim.
.However, fortunately, the Japanese are ambitious and are still competing with the United States and Britain for hegemony in the Asia-Pacific. They have not concentrated on dealing with China, which gave Fengjun an opportunity to take advantage of.
"In addition to conventional troops, special forces and the air force will be dispatched to enter Russia, destroy the Siberian Railway, and delay the actions of the Japanese army. Three more mixed brigades will be deployed along the Yalu River to prepare for defense, and an air force will be stationed in Fengcheng.
brigade, threatening the Yalu River Bridge. In short, we must adopt a strong enough stance to make the Japanese understand that once war breaks out, their military strength in the Far East will inevitably collapse."
Jiang Dengxuan also said: "The commander-in-chief's arrangement is wise. He wants the Japanese to retreat in the face of difficulties. If they don't retreat, we will fight until they retreat!"
After the meeting, Fengtian Times immediately published a comment titled "If you want to fight, then fight!", which immediately ignited the fire in the Far East! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and more updated novels.
