The impact of the "New Beijing Treaty" was beyond everyone's expectations, and forces on all sides expressed their dissatisfaction with the government of the Republic of China and criticized Li Yuanhong's central government for its failure to safeguard national sovereignty. Even an undercurrent of overturning Li has also emerged under the operation of "certain forces."

Rumors unfavorable to the Northeast in the South are also spreading. For this, of course, Feng Yong will not sit idly by. Soon the Governor of Northeast China issued a national telegram: "The Northeast resolutely opposes the "New Beijing Treaty" signed by the Republic of China government. It is not clear who is who is in the battle of the Northeast, and the government of the Republic of China has no responsibility to compromise with the Japanese. The Northeast government will expel the unscrupulous businessmen of Japanese enterprises captured by the Northeast government one by one. According to the policy of the Northeast Governor's Office, all the land resources in the Northeast are owned by the government, and the mining companies of various countries in the Northeast are requested to withdraw from the Northeast in the shortest possible time! Otherwise, Tohoku does not guarantee that it will not take the same measures as it did with the Japanese. ”

The electrification of the Northeast Governor's Palace was as tough as ever, causing a huge wave in the country. Especially in the northeast, the big capitalist countries with interests could not sit still. Although Europe is mired in war, as an old capitalist country, it will not easily give up the fat that it has eaten. The ambassadors of Britain, France, the United States, Russia, and other countries immediately sent telegrams to the government of the Republic of China, asking whether the declaration in Northeast China also represented the attitude of the government of the Republic of China. They also saw from the Sino-Japanese peace talks that the northeast government is tough and the central government is weak. These columns were like cats smelling fishy, and they came up one after another, and the government of the Republic of China represented by Li Yuanhong gave an explanation.

After several telegrams with the Northeast, the Northeast Government did not compromise at all, leaving the Li Yuanhong Government in a dilemma, and finally Li Yuanhong gritted his teeth and decided to put aside the relationship between himself and the Northeast. Although the Northeast is strong, it is too tough, and if the Northeast can continue to win in the future, it will be nothing, and if the Northeast suffers heavy losses, it may even cause a mass attack. Li Yuanhong didn't want to be tied to the big ship of the Northeast Governor's Palace. After all, in the eyes of these conservative officialdom veterans, the Northeast is full of enemies, and it is very likely that they will die early. The actions of the Viceroyalty of the Northeast offended almost all the European powers. If it weren't for the fact that the First World War involved the energy of the great powers, I am afraid that they would have already sent joint forces to deter the northeast by force. After all, the European powers, which were accustomed to being tough, looked down on the Republic of China with internal undercurrents.

"All remarks in the Northeast are at the discretion of the Northeast, not authorized by the government of the Republic of China, and the government of the Republic of China is not responsible for the words and actions of the Northeast." Li Yuanhong knew through the battle of the Northeast that he was carrying the black pot for the Northeast! This is also caused by his desire to win over the Northeast. But the troublemakers got away with it, and even took advantage of this incident to earn countless good reputations. This made President Leba, whose status was gradually becoming shaky, unbearable. If it weren't for the loss in the Northeast, I'm afraid President Li Da would have gone crazy a long time ago. Li Yuanhong decided to take advantage of this opportunity to completely draw a clear line between the presidential palace and the northeast, although it is possible to lose a strong reinforcement, but as long as the northeast does not move closer to Duan Qirui, President Li Da will not have any big losses.

The response of the presidential palace was beyond everyone's expectations. The ambassadors of Britain, France and other countries who originally wanted to put pressure on the government of the Republic of China could only reluctantly retreat. To put pressure on the Northeast Governor's Palace? I'm afraid that people don't even bird themselves at all. The ambassadors of these powers to China, that is not fine and monkey-like. It's definitely not going to be boring. For a military strongman like Feng Yong, as long as he determines his own development method, he will not change it easily. And the attitude of the Northeast is to be tough to the end. None of Japan, which had been overwhelmed by large armies, took advantage of the northeast, let alone the British and French powers, whose forces in the Far East were almost emptied. Russia, which maintained a certain level of strength in the Far East, was unable to take excessively tough measures against the Northeast in consideration of a war on both sides. The United States, another powerful country, did not overcharge in the Northeast, and it really couldn't afford to offend the local powerful faction of the Republic of China for such a thing.

In the face of the reaction of the presidential palace, the northeast was not affected, after the governor's palace spilled a large amount of silver, a steady stream of young and strong laborers entered the northeast through various channels, among which the three provinces of Zhili, Shandong, and Henan were the most. According to the statistics of the newly established Ministry of Human Resources of the Northeast Governor's Office, in just half a month, no less than 500,000 laborers entered the Northeast, plus the population attracted to the Northeast because of the Northeast immigration policy. In this half month, the population of Northeast China has increased by more than 1 million. At this rate, by the end of 1916, the population of the entire Northeast would probably exceed 25 million and really approach the 30 million mark. Of course, the government of the Northeast is happy to see this situation, and an adequate population indicates an abundant labor force, which is really important for the development of the Northeast. In addition, because of the situation in the Kannai, the cost of recruiting laborers in the Kannai is very low, and in many places, it is even possible to recruit a large number of young and strong laborers just by taking care of the food. At present, China has not fallen into the warlord melee, and the warlords have not been able to expand their troops everywhere. Therefore, the motivation of the people to be young and strong is still quite sufficient. Moreover, the concept of having more children and more than one in the folk feudal ideology makes the folk fertility rate extremely high. Families with more than a dozen children abound, but they are definitely not unusual. With such a huge population, they can't eat enough to rely on a small amount of land, and they can't survive at all if they don't go out to earn a living. In addition, with the establishment of the Republic of China, the mind began to be emancipated, and going out to make a living was gradually widely accepted by people.

"Young Marshal, it seems that the Presidential Palace has given up on wooing us. The failure of negotiations with the Japanese has put the presidential palace on the cusp of the storm, and President Leba's original ruling image has been dealt a heavy blow, and President Lebanon has paid so much, but our northeast has not been close to the slightest performance, and even offended more and more forces, and President Li Da has been impatient. I'm afraid that if it's too late, we'll cause them a lot of trouble. Li Jun said with a smile. From the beginning, the Northeast government did not want to integrate into the government of the Republic of China. Therefore, President Lebanon's efforts to win over the Northeast are doomed to be fruitless.

"It's nothing, this is not necessarily a bad thing for us, with the current strength of our Northeast Security Army, the government of the Republic of China can no longer suppress it, but we will not stop moving forward. In the future, such a thing may happen, and even the Northeast is really likely to start a full-scale war with foreign powers, and the government of the Republic of China, which is completely unprepared at that time, will definitely not support us. It's good not to fall into the ground. And if we drag the government of the Republic of China into a big war, it will even lead to the collapse of the rule of the government of the Republic of China. Let the warlord melee appear early. At this stage, a unified government of the Republic of China is more beneficial to us. Feng Yong now admires Li Yuanhong's courage, you must know that the Northeast Security Army is subordinate to the Beiyang Army system, although the current sphere of influence is in the Northeast, but with the record of being able to resist the Japanese, the elite of the Beiyang Army dare not underestimate the Northeast Security Army. If the Northeast Security Army really intervenes in the Republic of China government, it will be a huge force influencing the decision-making of the Republic of China government.

Li Jun nodded, and then asked the purpose of his visit this time: "Young marshal, how is the plan to go west to Mongolia?" Although the plan to go west to Mongolia was formulated by him and Feng Yong. Later, Feng Delin and Jiang Baili participated. But because Li Jun is in charge of the government's work, the specific implementation of this plan is operated by Feng Yong and Jiang Baili.

"The weapons and ammunition of the Zhang Xiaoshan Division of the Western Military Region have been basically prepared, and the training of soldiers is relatively mature, and they can start a big war at any time. However, the Cao Zheng Department of the Northwest Military Region has not yet completed the unification of the weapons of the troops. At present, in the Northwest Military District, the soldiers do not have uniform weapons models, and the logistics are disordered. According to my eldest brother and I, it will take at least half a month to start the plan to go west to Mongolia. So I set my plan for July 15 to launch a westward expansion into Mongolia. Be prepared for this aspect of the government. Feng Yong's expression was serious. You must know that the plan to move westward into Mongolia was formulated by them a few months ago, and it is the most crucial step for the Northeast to truly become an independent force. For this reason, the Western Military Region, the most powerful of the Northeast Public Security Army, has been accumulating strength, and even if the Japanese are pressing the border, Feng Yong has not used the strength of the Western Military Region.

At present, the Western Military Region consists of two full-strength infantry divisions, the First Division and the Sixth Division, and two cavalry divisions with a size of 10,000 people, with a total strength of more than 80,000 troops. When fighting against the Siberian Tigers, the 1st Brigade at that time showed strong combat effectiveness. The current cavalry division of 20,000 men is the trophy of war after the Western War at that time. The Western Military Region is also the most powerful cavalry force in the entire Northeast Security Army.

"The Northwest Military Region is a newly established unit and has not experienced any decent major wars, so will there be a problem for them to rush into the vast prairie?" Li Jun said with some concern. The current Northwest Military Region was established with Cao Zheng's Fifth Division as the main force. At present, the entire Western Military Region has five divisions and ten divisions under its jurisdiction, of which five divisions are infantry divisions, and the tenth division is a newly established infantry and cavalry mixed division. The total strength of the entire Northwest Military Region has reached more than 50,000 people. The Northwest Military Region can be said to have the smallest combat experience among the eight military regions of the Northeast Public Security Army. The weakest combat unit.

"It was because of their lack of experience in the Great War that they were put on it. Only on the battlefield of life and death can the troops mature quickly, and it is impossible to train steely troops just by relying on training. Feng Yong said a little coldly.

Li Jun is not a kind person of a woman, and he said this only because he was worried that the Western Military Region would not be able to reach that level.

"At this time, let's establish a political party. In this young marshal's vision, the political party we want to establish cannot be joined by anyone. It must be completely loyal to us, and only cohesive people can join. The members are not much more expensive. Feng Yongke was well aware of an important reason for the failure of the Xinhai Revolution, in addition to the weakness of the capitalist parties represented by the Kuomintang itself, the loose structure of the Kuomintang and the complicated background of its internal members greatly weakened the strength of the Kuomintang. This is also why in the early years of the Republic of China, the Kuomintang spread all over the country, after the victory of Wuchang, there were more than a dozen independent provinces, but the Kuomintang headquarters had little control over the independent provinces, which led to countless revolutionaries throwing their heads and spilling blood in exchange for the revolutionary fruits gradually taken by the feudal bureaucrats. In the end, after Yuan Shikai, the largest feudal bureaucrat with real power, came to power, the Kuomintang had no choice but to hand over the power in exchange for the unification of the whole country.

In the original time and space, Sun Wen also realized this, so he reorganized the Kuomintang, but unfortunately because of Sun Wen's own ability problems, the Kuomintang reform was not thorough, in order to obtain financial support, some businessmen and landlords in the Kuomintang in high positions, so that Sun Wen's efforts gradually went down the drain. With these impure motives, the Kuomintang veterans are nothing more than the fact that after the Northern Expedition, the Nationalist Government, which completed the reunification of the country, decayed at an extremely rapid rate. Eventually swept into the dustbin of history.

"After thinking about it for a long time, I decided that the political party we want to establish is called the National Independence Party. The goal is to realize the independence and strength of the Chinese nation. I am still in the process of drawing up a specific party constitution and a list of these people to become the first members of the National Independence Party. "Feng Yong's staff team and the assassination headquarters are also sorting out the performance of officials in various ministries since the establishment of the Northeast Governor's Mansion. In Feng Yong's heart, this first batch of party members is the core patriarch of the entire National Independence Party. It is the instrument of its own domination of the entire power, and it must be loyal to itself. Even Li Jun, who was closest to him, did not interfere in this matter, and Feng Yong handled it by himself.

"The National Independence Party?" Li Jun carefully pondered the significance of Feng Yong's establishment of this political party. "Young marshal, in this way, many people outside will see the ambitions of our Northeast, and I am afraid that it will be easy to attract the resistance of the great powers."

"Humph! Even if we don't form a political party, they won't boycott as usual. Besides, as the three eastern provinces become more and more stable, even if the enemy is strong, he must think about it when he comes to deal with our northeast. Feng Yong now doesn't care about the opinions of the great powers, as long as he is strong, no one dares to say anything even if he meddles in the internal affairs of other countries, why the United States in later generations will become the world's policeman, and it does not rely on their extremely strong national strength. Although Feng Yong did not think about building the Northeast into a country like the United States, he must at least have the strength to defend national sovereignty.

Li Jun nodded, he knew that Feng Yong was just telling him to say hello now, not to listen to his opinion, as Feng Yong's closest partner, Li Jun knew what should be done and what should not be done. Even if he is Feng Yong's brother, the distinction between master and slave should be paid attention to.

"In addition, arrangements were made for the repatriation of the captured Japanese merchants in batches. Send back those who are useless first, and those engineers, as the last batch, must take the opportunity to squeeze their labor. I have heard that these technical captives are doing well, and are even willing to trade their labor for a richer material life, and I promise them. Let them go to technical schools to teach. Such a baby does not need to be in vain. Feng Yong thought of the news from the prisoner camp. Although Feng Yong's prisoner camp would not abuse prisoners, he didn't have to think about maintaining a good living condition. Not letting them be coolies is already Feng Yong's scruples about the Japanese government's complete madness, otherwise, with Feng Yong's hatred of Japan in later generations, although the prisoners who can't resist will not be slaughtered, the coolies are deserved. Rather, it is the coolie who does the hardest and most tiring work.
