There were more than twenty princes present at the meeting, among which four or five were relatively powerful, while the rest were much smaller, so the position of commander of the coalition forces was mainly competed among them.
They are all well aware of the benefits that the position of commander of the coalition forces can bring, so no one will give in and will fight to the death.
In this way, the meeting lasted until midnight, and King De and the others also argued until midnight. Then the meeting was temporarily adjourned, and everyone went back to rest.
That night, many people did not sleep well. Especially the two most powerful princes, King De and King Qi, stayed up all night, planning how to get the position of commander of the coalition forces at the meeting the next day.
As for those little princes, they have long forgotten about this matter, because they know that no matter how hard it turns, it will never be their turn to take this position.
There was no talk all night, and the meeting continued after dawn. People still argued, and no one wanted to give in. They were so red-faced that they almost started fighting.
King Qi was sitting on a chair on one side. His huge body was almost completely sunken into the chair. His mustache was slightly upturned, and he looked very beautifully built.
As the prince with the same strength as King De, he is also the second most promising prince. The two have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and they are considered old rivals. At this time, he closed his eyes slightly, but he was secretly looking at King De.
look.
Something seems wrong!
A strange color flashed through King Qi's slightly narrowed eyes. He felt that King De today seemed a little different from yesterday. He was less impatient and more calm, as if he already had a plan in mind.
This discovery made King Qi secretly vigilant, and he did not dare to relax at all.
Although I know that King De will definitely not dare to carry out an assassination or Hongmen Banquet, after all, the people present are the Mongolian royal family. To do so is to abandon the tradition of the Mongolian royal family and will be despised and rejected by everyone; but it does not mean that King De will not
What kind of tricks and tricks are being done behind the scenes?
As if aware of King Qi's gaze on him, King De also cast his eyes on him, and even nodded and smiled at him, as if he had been a good friend for many years.
This made King Qi even more uneasy.
Sitting on a large and comfortable chair, King De was in a very good mood. Because he already knew the results of today's meeting, he did not participate in the dispute. Instead, he watched the princes fighting over each other like a clown.
It was a lot of fun.
Casting his eyes on King Qi, King De sneered secretly in his heart, "I can't believe it, old friend, you have been busy for a long time, but you are still making a wedding dress for me."
Seeing that the time was almost up, King De stood up slowly from his chair, then put his hands together, tapped them twice, and said, "Everyone, be quiet for a moment."
There was a sudden silence in the room, and the princes who were arguing all sat upright and turned to look at him.
With a warm smile on his face, King De said, "Next, we have a distinguished guest." As he spoke, he gestured outside.
The sound of clicking footsteps sounded at the door of the conference room, and then a Japanese military commander in uniform walked in from the outside and strode towards the conference table.
Everyone here was stunned. They didn't expect the Japanese to suddenly appear in their meeting.
When King Qi saw this Japanese for the first time, he secretly screamed something bad. Now, he finally understood why King De was so calm. It turned out that he had invited Shang Fang Baojian.
The Mongolian Princes' Autonomous Council is nominally the management organization of the Mongolian grasslands, but in fact it is just a puppet agency of the Japanese. It must listen to the Japanese in everything it does.
This time King De invited the Japanese. He must have reached some agreement with the Japanese and planned to use the power of the Japanese to seize the command of these people's troops.
Of course, this is what the Japanese want to see. A separate Mongolian army that does not obey orders is far less easy to command than an allied force that accepts unified command.
"What a good prince, you actually colluded with the Japanese to plot against us. I really didn't expect it." King Qi was so angry that his chest felt tight, but he had no place to attack, so he could only sit back in his chair weakly.
The Japanese colonel who arrived was none other than Renichi Inoue. He represented Lieutenant General Mimoto Kimura, commander-in-chief of the Japanese Kwantung Army's Mongolian Division, and mainly announced the attitude of the headquarters.
"Welcome, Mr. Inoue, please come and take a seat." Prince Toku greeted him with a smile, and then walked towards the conference table, where a seat had been prepared for Renichi Inoue, next to his chair.
.
Arriving at the conference table, Renichi Inoue looked up, then sat down unceremoniously on the main seat, leaving the seat next to him for King Tokui.
King De looked at the seat with some embarrassment, but finally sat on it.
After sitting down, Renichi Inoue raised his head and looked around the conference table at the Mongolian princes. Then he took out the documents in the folder, opened it, and read, "The telegram from the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army in Mongolia. I heard that the Mongolian Autonomy Conference
When discussing the position of commander of the coalition forces, General Sanbonkimura is very concerned about it and hereby proposes King Toku to take up this position, for reference only."
As soon as the words came out, everyone understood that the Japanese had already chosen the person, and the so-called "for reference only" was just a Japanese way of saying it.
In the Mongolian Princely Autonomous Council, the Japanese only held the title of consultant, so they could not appoint this person and remove that person with confidence. They needed to find a more appropriate wording, but the actual effect was the same.
A sound of regret echoed in the conference room, and people knew that there was no chance for them. It seemed that King De must have done something last night, otherwise the Japanese would not come today.
After conveying the order, Colonel Inoue Ren did not stop and returned directly to the headquarters. There have been a lot of things going on with the Kwantung Army recently, especially the recent movements of the Yanhuang Army, which made Lieutenant General Sanbonkimura's hair grow dozens of times overnight.
As soon as the Japanese left, there was an explosion in the conference room, and the first one to stand up was King Qi.
The huge body was trembling slightly. King Qi's face was ashen. He raised his finger and pointed at King De across from him. His voice shook the conference room slightly, "King De, have you gone a little too far? What are we Mongolians doing?"
, why do you want to bring in Japanese people as your backers?”
King De smiled and spread his hands, "King Qi, I didn't do this. The Japanese came here on their own initiative. There's nothing I can do to stop it."
"Hmph, if it weren't for you, how did they get the news?" Another prince also raised a problem. Apart from King De and King Qi, he was the most powerful one and had a high chance of becoming the commander of the coalition forces.
King De still had an innocent expression, but he felt angry when he saw the eyes of these people, "How would I know? Maybe the Japanese have been paying attention to it for a long time. Besides, there are so many people here, maybe some of them are Japanese."
Where is the human eyeliner?"
At this time, the conference room was in chaos. People accused King De of betrayal and the crowd was agitated to a certain extent.
King Qi pushed away his chair and stood up, turned around and walked towards the conference room. He was stopped by King De after taking just two steps, "Brother King Qi, where are you going?"
King Qi stopped, then turned around, looked at King De, and laughed angrily, "Where can I go? Go back and assemble the army for King De. You, the commander of the coalition forces, can't do anything without troops."
King De smiled solemnly, and then suddenly said, "You're welcome, King Qi, just stay in Prince De's Mansion for a few more days and have a good rest. It won't be too late to go back after the coalition forces are formed."
King Qi's expression suddenly changed. He didn't expect King De to actually dare to do this. After a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, King De, you are cruel enough."
Two guards came forward and followed King Qi out. They were protecting in name but actually monitoring.
The other Mongolian princes looked at each other in shock. They all understood that even King Qi was under house arrest and their fate was the same. In the end, they all followed the guards down obediently.
After all the princes had left the conference room, King De looked at the empty hall alone and couldn't help laughing wildly.
Amid the creepy laughter, King De's eyes looked a little heart-stoppingly crazy. He said to himself, "This is just the beginning. One day, Mongolia will regain the glory of its ancestors and conquer the world under its feet."
."
King De has always regarded Genghis Khan as his idol, and he also cherishes the ambition of his ancestors and wants to recreate the glory of the previous Yuan Dynasty.
Taking refuge with the Japanese was just a temporary measure for him. His purpose was to use the power of the Japanese to hide his strength and bide his time and wait for the opportunity to rise again.
Now, he couldn't wait any longer, so he finally took the first step towards his grand dream.
After laughing, King De sat down on the chair again. At this time, he was still as humble as he was in front of everyone, but his face was a little ferocious, "King Qi, King Li, you are all stepping stones for my great achievements.
Be proud of your worth."
At noon, fast horses galloped out of Prince De's palace. They would rush to each alliance with the new commander of the coalition forces, Prince De, and the tokens of the princes. They would order the princes' troops stationed there to come to Prince De's palace to meet and be reorganized into a coalition.
coalition forces.
As King Toku's big move began, the Japanese also expressed their stance and publicly recognized King Toku's identity as the commander of the coalition forces, which was tantamount to showing their attitude of supporting King Toku.
The Mongolian grasslands were shaken, and everyone was paying attention to this incident, because the occurrence of this incident meant that the tradition of tribal military independence that had been passed down in the Mongolian grasslands for thousands of years would be broken.
The herdsmen were talking a lot, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for them.
But for some people, this is not a good thing. The emergence of the coalition forces means that their previous tactics developed in the cracks of using enemies to control enemies will lose their effect.
How to go in the future? The Mongolian anti-Japanese coalition forces are in a dilemma!
