Fang Jianxiong's excuse for sending troops to Jiujiang is a bad one, but in this era, you don't need a good excuse to start a war. Li Liejun of Jiujiang is a powerful member of the Provisional Government. Fang Jianxiong attacked Jiujiang, and some people were sad and sad. Well, the Provisional Government's banner accounted for the majority. They applauded and applauded.

This is the mentality of everyone in Beiyang. After Yuan Shikai learned the news, he burst into tears. Fang Jianxiong, the scourge, finally stopped harming Beiyang and started harming the Revolutionary Party.

Graham was one of the people who applauded the friendly countries. Matsumura, who had just arrived with him, had no intention of applauding. The only person the Nanjing Provisional Government can count on for diplomacy now is Japan, and probably only the Japanese government hopes that China will be like the Northern and Southern Dynasties in history.

The pattern. The warlord I am going to meet now is really a disgusting disruptor to foreign friends.

The National Defense Forces Headquarters is probably the place with the most female soldiers. The women's suicide squad created by Tang Qunying seems to have given Fang Jianxiong an advantage. In order to show Marshal Fang's respect for women, all departments of the headquarters have placed female soldiers in various positions.

Disliked that the military uniforms worn by female soldiers were not eye-catching enough, Fang Jianxiong urgently summoned tailors in the city to tailor clothes for some 300 female soldiers while he was recovering from his injuries. There are two types of military uniforms for female soldiers, one is daily wear,

A grass green skirt, paired with a jacket. One is war fashion, which is no different from the general soldier look. The difference is that it fits better and shows the charm of women. In other words, female soldiers are better dressed than male soldiers.

Two more sets were issued, and socks and leather shoes were newly purchased. This measure won the hearts of the majority of female soldiers.

Yin Weijun also put on a new skirt and shiny black leather boots, and appeared at the door of the reception room. There is no woman who does not love beauty, even Yin Weijun, who is used to handling swords and guns, is no exception. Within the National Defense Forces, the combat nature of female soldiers has been greatly

Weakened, the Yin sisters expressed a little dissatisfaction with this. Fang Jianxiong explained patiently that female soldiers did have many inconveniences on the battlefield. Well, since it does not mean that female soldiers cannot fight, this explanation is acceptable.

When the two consuls saw the appearance of Yin Weijun, their eyes lit up somewhat. At the same time, they also gained a deeper understanding of the nature of Fang Jianxiong, the warlord.

"Two consul gentlemen, Commander Fang is currently receiving American guests, and will receive German guests in ten minutes. You two may need to wait for a while." Yin Weijun said it very politely, without being rude at all.

"Baga!" Matsumura cursed in his heart. Seeing that Brother Ge had no intention of having an attack, he smiled and nodded at the female soldier and put away the idea of ​​having an attack. A local warlord in China actually let two friendly countries

People are waiting, it’s too arrogant!

What was on Graham's mind was other thoughts. American guests? German guests? Neither of these two countries are good birds! One is a country with the world's top industrial strength, clamoring for an open door all day long, and such a warlord appears in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.

The Americans came so quickly, I'm afraid they don't have any good intentions. Let alone the Germans, they are almost a new power that challenges the old order around the world. If Fang Jianxiong gets the support of Germany and the United States, Britain will

Can the empire's interests in the two provinces still be guaranteed?

Douglas's visit did not bring great news. At this stage, the United States is in a stage where it wants benefits and is reluctant to pay. Of course, Douglas did not come empty-handed. The group behind him is willing to do so within limits.

The reward for helping Fang Jianxiong, a newly rising warlord, is not small.

What Douglas conveyed was that a steel company in the United States is willing to invest in the Ma'anshan Steel Plant, but wants to hold a controlling stake. If it cannot accept the controlling stake, the group hopes to win the business of the Ma'anshan Steel Plant and will give a preferential price. The United States also hopes that Fang Jianxiong can

The markets of the two provinces are fully open. If Fang Jianxiong purchases American firearms, he will get a special preferential price. It is still the same open door policy, repeating the same old tune.

Obviously, this Yankee is not a good bird.

After a short exchange, Fang Jianxiong told Douglas clearly: "I suggest you wait a year before discussing these issues. There is no free lunch in the world. This sentence applies at any time. I am deeply aware of the short-sightedness of American capital.

I'm disappointed. The news you brought back forced me to reconsider some things. Of course, the personal friendship between you and me will not be affected in any way by this."

Douglas knew very well that this was a tactful rejection of the United States, and he had guessed this result before coming. In fact, Douglas had made a lot of efforts to promote cooperation between American capital and Fang Jianxiong's forces. Fang Jianxiong knew this in his heart, and every week

There was a call from Fisher from the United States.

Douglas could only say goodbye with regret. When he was going out, he happened to bump into a German coming in. Douglas could only sigh in his heart, very unwilling to do so, and felt that he should do something more. Douglas was quite optimistic about Fang Jianxiong. If you missed this

Opportunities are likely to fall behind the Germans in the future.

The German who came to visit Fang Jianxiong was called Andreas, a name that was popular on the streets of Germany. Andreas, dressed in casual clothes, turned out to be a special envoy sent by the German Governor in Qingdao.

Since the Wuchang Uprising, Germany was the first country to jump out to help the Qing government suppress the revolution. This has something to do with interests. However, interests are often changing. With the British clearly expressing their support for Yuan Shikai, it has become difficult for the Qing government to

After the revolution was suppressed and Yuan Shikai, who represented British interests, gradually became possible to occupy the leadership position of the country, the Germans once again made a swift response.

On the surface, Fang Jianxiong seemed not to be friendly to Britain, and even Japan, Britain's ally, was not favored by Fang Jianxiong. Outside the Hankou Concession, a firefight broke out between Fang Jianxiong's troops and the Japanese Marine Corps. Both sides suffered casualties. Afterwards, the Japanese government

Due to the pressure from the British, this matter was not pursued excessively. This reflects the British's eagerness to bring Yuan Shikai to power, even to the point of betraying the small interests of their own allies.

German Minister Harhausen, faced with the ever-changing political situation in China and the fact that Fang Jianxiong was rapidly rising, had to make some small experiments.

Andreas appeared as a manager of a German-Chinese bank. Regarding this seemingly pro-German warlord, Hans quickly met several fellow villagers after arriving in Wuhan. Before that, Andreas knew that

There were many Germans in Fang Jianxiong's troops. Only after actual contact did he know that the Germans under Fang Jianxiong's command had been reused.

This phenomenon is rare. There are many German soldiers serving in the Chinese Army, and most of them appear as instructors and consultants. Fang Jianxiong, who dares to directly put himself in the high position of the General Staff and the chief officer of the main force, has no idea.

There were only two German lieutenants who became generals in China and one German artilleryman.

Regiment captain and staff officer, serves as deputy chief of staff here at Fang Jianxiong. What does this mean? Andreas feels that intelligence officers in China grew up eating shit, and such a person suddenly emerged to actually control two provinces in a short period of time.

The warlord has always been regarded as a small dealer who resells second-hand arms.

While Fang Jianxiong was talking to the Americans, Andreas had a conversation in his native language with fellow Germans Hamilton and others. The former German artillery captain and staff officer spoke highly of Fang Jianxiong. He believed that this person had learned the essence of the powerful German army in Germany.

And on this basis, remarkable improvements were made based on China's actual situation. These improvements are of great reference value to the German army. Hamilton even hinted that he could provide a comprehensive tactical training manual for the National Defense Forces.

Of course, the communication between the Germans in the headquarters was not behind Fang Jianxiong's back. It was even Fang Jianxiong who instructed Hamilton to do this. It had only been a few years since the First World War. Let the Germans take care of Britain and France, and let more blood flow in Europe.

The biggest wish of Fang Jianxiong, a black-hearted careerist. Ah, the scene of the heroic troops lining up in neat formation, beating drums and playing bagpipes to attack, is so exciting.

Encountering the Americans who were going out, Andreas nodded slightly in a friendly manner. There are also many people of German descent in the United States, and the relationship between Germany and Germany is still good. Andreas does not think that Americans can pose much of a threat to the Germans. This rich country,

The combat effectiveness of its army is completely negligible.

"Welcome Mr. Andreas. Your visit reminds me of the wonderful years in Munich. To be honest, I particularly miss my German mother, Mrs. Sillem. It was her careful care that brought me back to life."

Saved from the hands of death. In this season, there should be no leaves on the oak trees on the streets of Munich. They are so bare that people can't help but feel sentimental." Fang Jianxiong's true feelings when facing Andreas made people feel sad.

This German guy with a special mission was very excited.

"It seems that you have very good memories of your time in Germany." Andreas followed the tone. Fang Jianxiong showed a longing look in his eyes and sighed: "Yes, I was from 12 to 18 years old.

, all spent in Germany. Six years have made me full of affection for Germany. Well, let’s not talk about these old things. If I go on, I have the urge to buy a ticket to Germany immediately. Unfortunately, it will not be available in the short term.

It’s impossible.”
