Zhang Xiluan, the chief of the Army of the Republic of China, may be the most comfortable Chief of the Army of the Army of the Republic of China. Most of the former Chief of the Army were appointed by the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, including many powerful factions like Duan Qirui. In short, these people are all in high positions and powerful.

General Zhang Xiluan himself has no intention of arresting power, and others are unwilling to let the 79-year-old General Zhang be tired. Except for important meetings that must be attended, any specific matters will be done by the Chief of Staff and others.

President Zhang was attending a cabinet meeting at this time. Today is the 11th. Early in the morning, the door of the printing factory that printed the Northeast Daily was crowded with people. Everyone hoped to arrive at the newspaper as soon as possible. So the newspaper boys were temporarily unemployed, from

The newspapers shipped out of the printing factory were immediately surrounded by the crowd.

According to the song "The Singing of Newspapers" written by Nie Er, "Lalala! Lalala! I am a small newspaper expert. Before I wait for the newspaper to be sent, I went and shouted. Today's news is really good.

, buy two newspapers for seven copper coins.'

Now, these people no longer care about the price. Some even took a silver dollar in their hands and squeezed in the crowd while shouting: "I will buy two, one silver dollar, I will buy two!"

Fortunately, the big men of the Beiyang government had already ordered newspapers. When the newspapers were still in the printing factory, the newspapers to the big guys were taken away by people from various companies.

President Xu Shichang, Prime Minister Duan Qirui, Army Chief Zhang Xiluan, and Foreign Minister Gu Weijun, these four people held a meeting. The war between Northeast China and Japan was so important that no one who had no value for it was invited to attend.

At this moment, as soon as the conference room door opened, Navy Chief Jiang Zheng walked in quickly with a newspaper. Jiang Zheng, a native of Fujian. He was born in 1865, at the same age as Duan Qirui. He entered the second place in Tianjin Naval Academy in his early years.

Studying driving class. Graduated in the 13th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1887), joined the navy and was promoted to the principal of Yantai Naval School. The old man of 57 was blushing and his eyes were red. After entering the door, he looked at the waiting people first

Apology: "You guys, you're getting off the car and you're so fascinated by the gods, so you've been waiting for a long time."

The Minister of Foreign Affairs Gu Weijun smiled slightly. He could fully understand the feelings of the Chief of Navy Jiang Zheng. The Northeast Army cleanly annihilated the Kwantung Army and the main force of the Japanese army stationed in Korea, annihilated more than 83,200 enemies. Such military victory has not only changed.

The situation in East Asia has even faintly shaken the world situation.

Gu Weijun actually wanted to retreat after the Washington Conference, but at this time he did not consider this matter at all. At this time, it was the time to fight against other countries in diplomacy and maintain China's strength. As the head of diplomacy, how could he not

However, Gu Weijun, as the first Chinese diplomatic leader with victory in 80 years, even Gu Weijun, who is used to the big international scenes, cannot find his current position immediately.

Duan Qirui felt mixed feelings. Seeing that everyone had read the newspaper, he said, "General Gu, if a foreigner asks why the government did not send a telegram to the Northeast, you can tell the foreigner that the telegraph machines have not been there for a few days.

There were some malfunctions and needed repairs in the day and night."

Gu Weijun smiled slightly and felt that the answer was quite humorous, so he agreed. This is diplomacy. A weak country has no diplomacy, and any reason for a strong country will be so "natural". Just like how to declare war on the Kwantung Army.

After talking about the relaxed topic, the rest are naturally not easy topics. Inviting the Minister of Foreign Affairs Gu Weijun to attend the meeting, I am not going to discuss domestic issues.

After a moment of thinking, Xu Shichang raised a question that he personally felt could not be completely determined, "Zhang Gong, Japan must know that the central government actually supports General He. Will they use this as an excuse to stay in Shandong and not leave. Or they are obsessed with it,

Want to occupy Shandong and face each other across the sea from the pass?"

Zhang Xiluan naturally considered these things. When Xu Shichang asked about them, he chuckled, "Haha, if Japan dares to do this, General He will go back and continue to move south and take all the entire North Korea."

Although Xu Shichang himself was quite honest, the two things of Jiawu and Gengzi made him always have a strong fear of the great powers. Even though he knew that this was extremely impossible, he was still worried as long as it was possible.

After hearing what Zhang Xiluan said, Xu Shichang was completely relieved.

Duan Qirui also graduated from the Japanese non-commissioned officer school. Of course he knew that not to mention the Japanese division of troops, even if the Japanese army gathered in North Korea, it would be very possible for He Rui to go south to seize the entire North Korea. If Japan lost North Korea, it would be between him and He Rui.

Only one Tsushima Strait would make the Japanese army completely unable to move. With the Japanese level, they would not take the initiative to attack Beiyang before completely defeating He Rui.

But Duan Qirui was worried about it. He actually hoped that He Rui could win, but once He Rui won, it means that the Fengtian clan would inevitably take over the central government. Although the Anhui clan had no grudges with the Fengtian clan, he still did not want to become an affiliate.

.And it is not only the Fengtian faction that competes with the Anhui faction, so Duan Qirui asked: "General Gu, don't know what the great powers are about this battle?"

Not only did Gu Weijun think about it for a long time, he also invited a group of diplomatic seniors in the capital to discuss the matter with his talents. At this time, he answered decisively: "I have handled a lot of Chinese diplomacy since the Paris Peace Conference.

The problem is that everyone asks for prices randomly and is unwilling to suffer losses openly and ends with losses secretly; unwilling to suffer small losses, ends with great losses. At this time, as long as the central government and the Northeast can maintain consistency, no country can do anything

Get benefits.”

This sentence stopped in the old fox's ears, and he could not understand it any longer. Duan Qirui smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang is the chief commander of the army, so General He will definitely not have any misunderstandings. At this time, we must naturally be consistent with the outside world. Xu Da

President, why not generate electricity and ask Cao Gong about his thoughts?”

Xu Shichang nodded. At present, the four major factions in China, from north to south, are the Fengtian faction, Anhui faction, Zhili, and revolutionary parties.

The biggest enemy of the Anhui clan is actually the Zhili. The so-called "Zhi" refers to Zhili. The original leader of the Zhili clan was Feng Guozhang, who was a Tianjin Wei native in Zhili, and his subordinates were officers from Zhili.

Mainly.

The backer behind the Zhili Group is Britain and France, and the Anhui Group has been competing for control of the central government. Before He Rui started the war with Japan, the Zhili Group and the Anhui Group had been fighting against each other for several months. If He Rui had not been silent, I would have been afraid that

The two sides have started a war.

Under this situation, Duan Qirui and Xu Shichang discussed privately and forced the Direct Group to make a statement. As long as the Direct Group expresses its agreement and is consistent with the outside world, things will be easy to handle. If He Rui can win, the Anhui Group will control the Central Committee and will immediately be able to go with the Central Committee.

He Rui coordinated the distribution of power. Even if the Anhui clan lost most of his posts, the Zhi clan would definitely gain nothing. At that time, He Rui's army went south to wipe out the Zhi clan in the name of the central government, and at least he could expel the anger of the Anhui clan.

The more this happens, the more the Anhui faction will occupy the moral commanding heights, forcing the Zhi faction to deal with it in the field drawn by the Anhui faction.

Xu Shichang said: "What is fighting in war is money and food. The central government cannot disclose why the generals raise funds, so it is better for the people to do these things. What do you think?"

No one would object to this matter, at least no one dared to object to this matter. So the decision was passed. Duan Qirui knew that many people would definitely want to get a kick in this matter and decisively refused to take responsibility.

, This matter was left to the relatively innocent Gu Weijun to contact him.

Gu Weijun didn't expect that he, the chief diplomat, would be assigned such a task. But this matter is actually not small, and Gu Weijun had to agree.
