Joseon Governor-General's Palace.

"Yaga! Feng Delin, Feng Yong. It's too arrogant, it's too arrogant! The governor of North Korea, General Terauchi Masaui, roared. The president of the Bank of North Korea, the personal assistant to the governor of North Korea, Katsuta, did not dare to take a breath. Feng Delin's lack of cooperation from the Fengtian provincial government was much more than he expected. This made the Japanese envoy who had been promised in front of Prince Su look gloomy. Slap in the face! Naked face slap. As soon as they agreed that things would be settled, there was such a big fork here.

"Your Excellency the Governor! It is necessary to send troops to let these people know that the Great Japanese Empire will not allow provocations. Seeing that Terauchi Masaki's face calmed down, Katsuda hurriedly suggested.

"Shout, Katsuta-kun, you now send someone to stabilize Prince Su and the others. The governor of Pontus did not expect Feng Delin to be so bold and dare to provoke the majesty of the Japanese Imperial Army. I'll send a telegram to Matsukawa-kun now, and ask the 3rd Division to move closer to the border of Mukden Province. Once the order from the military department arrives, I will take the heads of the Feng family and his son within three days. At the end of the speech, the face of General Terauchi Masatsuki was covered with a hideous color.

"Your Excellency General, I have prepared the funds needed for the war, and the Bank of Korea is ready to serve the Imperial Japanese Army!"

"Excellent! Now we have everything, only the east wind is owed! ”

Mukden, the temporary headquarters of the Northeast Security Army.

"Young Marshal, I just received urgent information that the Japanese Third Division is moving closer to the border between China and North Korea. The target was directed at the command of the 3rd Frontier Brigade. Jing Tong, the person in charge of the assassination, hurriedly entered Feng Yong's headquarters with a look on his face.

"What, so fast?" Feng Yong's expression changed greatly, but he didn't expect that the news he was waiting for did not come, but waited for the news that the enemy sent troops. Things turned out to be the worst.

"Quickly send a report to Lin Hu, commander of the Southeast Military Region, ordering the Southeast Military Region to enter the first level of alert and be ready to deal with the enemy's attack at any time!" Feng Yong's expression was ruthless, since the situation is already like this, let's fight it! Feng Yong was resolutely unwilling to surrender to the Japanese. Although he is not a character who would rather be broken than broken, he can't do things that are groveling. And from later generations, he did not have any fear of the current Chinese people for Japan.

"Notify the Governor and Dean Li Jun immediately!" Feng Yong got up and prepared to go to the conference room. If Yuan Shikai does not die, then the Japanese are likely to provoke trouble on the Sino-North Korean border, and there is a possibility of a large-scale invasion. Although Feng Yong has no bottom in his heart, he will not choose to retreat. Even if you can't destroy the Japanese, with nearly 200,000 elite soldiers under your command, you can also break the Japanese muscles and bones, and weakening the Japanese is to enhance the combat power of the Chinese nation. Historically, Japan and China have been at a point where they are not restless.

Of course, Feng Yong could also immediately give up the actions he was performing now. Currying favor with the Japanese, and then giving up part of the interests of the three eastern provinces, the Japanese will always be satisfied. After all, Japan has no plans for a full-scale invasion of China. Japan is also far from being as powerful as people think.

"Yong'er, how can this be the case!" It seems that Feng Delin has also gotten the news. After all, Feng Delin has been a bigwig in Northeast China for many years, and the situation in the three eastern provinces cannot be said to be fully understood, but he still got the news as soon as the Japanese mobilized troops on a large scale.

"Father, there's nothing to worry about, it's a big deal to fight with the Japanese! With the combat effectiveness of the Northeast Security Army, even if the Japanese finally swallow the three eastern provinces, I will make him break a few teeth. Father, I am ready to go to the front in person, and the affairs of Mukden will be handed over to you! Feng Yong said firmly.

"Young marshal, I'll go with you! How can this kind of war be without me, Li Jun! Li Jun strode in and spoke. Based on Li Jun's understanding of Feng Yong, Feng Yong's strategic vision is excellent, but when it comes to specific tactical command, he is a weak mess; after all, he has studied advanced military affairs in Japan and Germany, and in the entire Northeast Public Security Army, his military literacy has not surpassed his own. Going to the front line by himself can also complement Feng Yong.

"Nonsense! Yong'er, are you going to go to war with the Japanese! No, absolutely not! The forces that we have built up with great difficulty must not be destroyed on impulse. Feng Delin's expression became ugly. He didn't value the throne of the governor of the Northeast, but worried about his son, after all, a genius like Feng Yong was rare in a hundred years, and Feng Delin certainly didn't want his genius son to be wiped out before he grew up because of his enthusiasm and impulsiveness.

"Father, I have made up my mind, as long as the Japanese army dares to invade the Northeast one step, I will fight with him with the security corps!" Feng Yong's expression was unprecedentedly determined.

"Yong'er, are you crazy? The Tohoku Security Army could never be an opponent of the Japanese. How can you make such a crazy decision on impulse. Think about your hard work in founding the Northeast Security Army, and think about your ideals and ambitions. Don't be impulsive! Feng Delin persuaded hard. Li Jun looked at Feng Yong with a stubborn look in his eyes. Of course, Li Jun knew that if the Northeast Governor's Office was now soft on the Japanese, it would not be impossible to overcome this crisis. After all, Japan did not want to start a major war during this period. But the stubborn Feng Yong made him see a spirit of unyielding death. What about death! Soldiers should have the consciousness of dying on the battlefield and shrouding their bodies in horse leather. At this time, Feng Yong was more like a flesh-and-blood soldier.

"Father! I've made up my mind! Feng Yong said categorically.

"You ......" Feng Delin didn't know what to say! He also has a national heart, but the ups and downs of officialdom over the years have smoothed his edges and corners. Looking at the young man in front of him, he seemed to think of himself when he was young, when he set up a rabble militia and dared to go to war with the powerful Russian army. What's more, the young man in front of him is better than himself, and he has nearly 200,000 elites in his hands. What the result will be, we will only know if we have beaten it.

"Young Marshal, I support you! When did our Northeast Security Army not kill from a strong enemy? Every time we expand, it's not after defeating a strong enemy. Although the Japanese are stronger than any enemy we face, we are not without hope of victory. However, if the young marshal really decides to fight the Japanese, I suggest that the Manchu remnants in Mukden City be dealt with before the war begins. I am afraid that these people have already colluded with the Japanese, and once the war starts, it will definitely become an unstable factor! Li Jun was originally a little unacceptable to Feng Yong's violent methods, after all, Li Jun, who had accepted Western democratic ideas, found it difficult to agree with Feng Yong's theory of violent plunder.

But now it's different. It is clear that a secret agreement has been reached between the Japanese governor in Korea and the Manchu remnants, who knows if these Manchu remnants will join forces to attack the government when they are at war with Japan. Although these Manchu remnants did not have a standard army, they had a lot of power in their hands, and it was also a force to be reckoned with if they really wanted to unite. As Feng Yong's assistant, Li Jun has the obligation to solve hidden dangers for Feng Yong's resolution.

Feng Yong nodded and said, "It's indeed an unstable factor. But no matter whether the Japanese do it or not, I will easily let go of these Manchu relics. It's just that there was no reason to use violent means, but the Japanese intervened and gave us an excellent reason. These garbage left over from the Manchu Qing Dynasty should also contribute to the rise of the Northeast! ”

Seeing that the fate of the Manchu remnants in Fengtian Province was decided by the two young men in front of him so lightly, Feng Delin once again had the feeling that he was old.

It wasn't just some forces that secretly attacked, the Japanese governor asked the Northeast Governor's Office to stop the land confiscation policy, and the Northeast Governor's Office didn't buy it at all. Tens of thousands of Japanese troops had already assembled towards the border, and the news that an attack on Mukden Province might be launched at any time spread throughout Mukden Province in the shortest possible time.

As soon as this news came out, it was really a mess in Fengtian Province. Everyone on all sides is at risk. After all, Feng Yong's behavior is likely to give the Japanese an excuse to invade Mukden Province, and the economy of Mukden Province, which has finally recovered, is afraid that it will be wiped out. The cruelty of the Russo-Japanese War still lingers in the hearts of many people in Northeast China. Whether it is the murderous Russian old Maozi or the self-proclaimed righteous Japanese dwarf, their methods are different, but their goals are the great rivers and mountains of the Northeast. The last war directly led to the death of millions of Chinese civilians and millions of refugees. How many families have been destroyed, and how many ordinary people have been killed by foreigners who have been falsely accused of being spies. These are all pains that ordinary people cannot forget.

I don't know when, and I don't know from which force came out of a rumor that Japan was accepting the request of the Manchu remnants and coming to the Northeast to establish the Qing Dynasty. To restore the rule of the Manchu emperors. This news spread more and more fiercely, and it actually spread from outside the customs to inside the customs in just two days. Influential newspapers in China immediately focused their cameras on the bitter cold land of Northeast China.

Streets of Beijing.

"Sell newspapers! Sell newspapers! What's New! Japan mobilized a division to the border of Mukden, and the front of the troops was directed at Marshal Feng Delin in the northeast. Feng Dashuai has declared a state of emergency for the Northeast Security Army to deal with a possible war. ”

With the addition of newspapers and publicity, the Chinese people suddenly focused their attention on the Northeast. You must know that since the founding of the Republic of China, even the hard-nosed President Yuan Da did not dare to fight the Japanese. Who is this Feng Delin? How dare you use the land of the three provinces to dare to fight with the great powers.

After the founding of the Republic of China, the people's wisdom was greatly opened, especially in the southeast coast, and the idea of democracy and rule of law had a deeper influence. Since the news that Feng Delin, the governor of Northeast China, was going to war with the Japanese, reached the coastal areas, the Chinese people, who were deeply oppressed by the foreign powers, immediately regarded Feng Delin as a great hero in their hearts to resist the invasion of the foreign powers. The major newspapers in China also voiced their support for the Northeast Marshal Feng Delin's resistance to the Japanese government's invasion of Chinese territory.

The newspaper's remarks put pressure on the government and all parties. Among them, the attitude of the Republic of China government has attracted the most attention, and Li Yuanhong, the acting president, has not sorted out the affairs of the government yet. Although he has the support of a military tycoon like Feng Guozhang, there is still a gap between Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui in terms of status and power, which makes President Li Yuanhong's decrees always obstructed by the Government Council. It was at this time that the Japanese invasion occurred in the Northeast. This made the already anxious government of the Republic of China even more chaotic.

"Notify the Japanese Embassy to protest against Japan's military deterrence of the Chinese territory in Northeast China." Li Yuanhong said to the attendant. Although Li Yuanhong was born as an overseer, he is more like a politician, although Feng Yong's situation in the northeast makes him very passive, but it also provides an opportunity for President Li Da to sit on the throne of the president. If he can resolve the crisis of this Japanese invasion, he will not only prove his ability to the Chinese people, but also show favor to Feng Delin in the Northeast and obtain the support of the Northeast Security Army.

Since Feng Delin controlled the three eastern provinces, he has been regarded as a cutting-edge force in the Beiyang Army, because Feng Delin is a native of Fengtian, and his troops are also nested in the three northeastern provinces, so Feng Delin's troops are also called Feng. was originally an inconspicuous local warlord, but when he really wanted to face it, he found that the local warlord was not so simple. Zhang Zuolin, who ended dismally in Mukden alone, took an elite army of 50,000 with him when he entered Chahar. Although it does not yet fully control the whole province of Chahar, the 50,000 elite army is also the largest military force in the entire Chahar province. Feng Delin, who was able to squeeze Zhang Zuolin out of Fengtian, would only be stronger. If such a powerful force is not borrowed, it will not be his Li Yuanhong's style.

"Mr. Liu, you go and arrange a meeting of the state government to discuss the situation in the northeast!" Li Yuanhong is going to put on a show. In the war with the Japanese, Li Yuanhong can't be the master now, and even if he does, Chief Duan, who is in charge of the army, may not obey, and when the time comes, he will lose his face. It is better to convene a government meeting and let all forces discuss it, if there is really any resolution at the government meeting, even if he Duan Qirui is unwilling, I am afraid there is no way to refute it clearly.

Guangzhou National Government.

"Prime Minister, how could Feng Delin in the Northeast go against the Japanese? Will this affect our relationship with the Japanese? As Sun Wen's close comrade-in-arms, Kuomintang veteran Huang Xing said.

"The situation is unclear at the moment, so don't comment lightly. Besides, the relationship with Japan is not up to us. The Kuomintang is now an opposition party, and it should use our appeal more to influence the government's decision-making. But this matter is too sensitive. I think it's better for our party to wait and see for the time being. "After all, Sun Wen is the founder of the country, although he has a lot of water, but his vision is extraordinary after all, and he is not a hot-headed person.

"It's good! There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing, but no matter how the government of the Republic of China chooses to deal with this matter, we have a reason. Huang Xing said with a smile.

"Yes! The opposition parties must always stand at the pinnacle of public opinion and represent justice in order to influence the government's decision-making.

"Keqiang! Notify the responsible persons in various places, wait and see for the time being, and wait for the Republic of China government to make a decision. When it comes to Japan, Sun Wen thinks it's better to be safe.
