Joseon Governor-General's Palace.

"Nani? Feng Delin actually did it to all the Manchu nobles? How could they be so bold and dare to ignore the majesty of the Great Rì Empire. "General Terauchi Zhengyi, who just got up early in the morning, was very angry by the intelligence sent by the Lushun Concession.

"Your Excellency the General, Lieutenant General Toshiyin Matsukawa, sent a telegram. An enemy force of about 30,000 men had moved to the face of the 3rd Division. Defensive positions are now being constructed. The herald quickly sent the latest information to Terauchi Masatake.

"Nani? More than 30,000 troops? What does Lieutenant General Yamatsukawa mean by this, could it be that the Jīng Rui of the Third Division of the Great Rì Empire would be afraid of the 30,000 local troops on the opposite side? "The general of the temple is in a terrible mood today.

"You have misunderstood Your Excellency the General, General Matsukawa is asking if you can send troops. The soldiers of the 3rd Division on the front line can't wait to contribute to the empire," the herald carefully took Lieutenant General Matsukawa's telegram to Masaki Terauchi.

Masaki Terauchi read Toshiyin Matsukawa's telegram. There was a satisfied look on his face: "Shout, Matsukawa-kun is good." However, the damned Okuma zhèng fǔ has always disagreed with us sending troops to the northeast. Otherwise, the Feng family's father and son would not be allowed to be arrogant. "The general in the temple has a deep hatred for the Feng father and son, and now he has a deep hatred for the obedient Feng Delin, and the original temple Zhengyi has a good impression of the obedient Feng Delin. After all, Feng Feng Delin was a "friend" who helped Rì himself against the Russians in the Russo-Russian War. But since the rise of his son Feng Yong in the Northeast, especially since he controlled the entire three eastern provinces and became the governor of the Northeast, Feng Delin seemed to be a different person, and he was greatly unfriendly to the Great Rì Empire. But without the authorization of the military department, the temple is righteous and has no way to deal with the arrogant Feng father and son, this is like a giant who clearly sees an ant provoking himself, but he can't pinch him to death.

"Your Excellency the Governor, Lieutenant General Iguchi Province, Chief of Staff of the Korean Garrison, has sent a telegram requesting that a brigade of troops from other Korean forces can be transferred to support Lieutenant General Matsukawa. in response to a possible full-scale war of aggression against China. "After all, if you want to swallow the entire Eastern Third Trial, the strength of more than 20,000 people in just one division is really stretched.

Terauchi Masashi shook his head, he also wanted to quickly take the three eastern provinces with a stronger force. Now the situation in the northeast is conducive to the expansion of rìmoto. The war in the West continued, the Russians were mired in the war in the West, and the Russian Far Eastern troops had not received military pay and materials from St. Petersburg for a long time. The Russian internal ** waves rose one after another, and the tsar was in internal and external difficulties, so it can be said that the current Russian army in the Far East is the weakest, which is why Terauchi Masashi wants to annex the three eastern provinces. The Russians were weak in the Far East, and the Northeast was not the focus of the other powers, and Rì himself had the upper hand in local forces after the occupation of Korea. Now, since Okuma came to power, two new permanent divisions have been added, bringing the number of permanent divisions to 17 with a total strength of 340,000. Despite the vastness of the empire, it is very likely that these two divisions would be sent to Korea itself. At that time, the number of troops in his hands will reach 100,000, and it is not trivial to take the three eastern provinces.

It's just that Okuma's delay in not expressing his position made Terauchi Zhengyi feel anxious. He had already sent several telegrams to the marshal of the county county, and the return of the marshal was simple: "Please be patient"

Although Shan County has a friend, he is a veteran of the military. His status in the army is incomparable, but there are still a few veterans like him, although Shan County Youpeng is the most prestigious among them, but if others disagree, Shan County Youpeng himself is also difficult to support. After all, invading the Northeast is tantamount to starting a war against China, and although China's current national strength is weak, its national service is vast, and it is not sure that it will be able to win if it is fully developed. Since Rì is a small country with few resources, a war with a big country like China will definitely be a life-and-death battle that will block the fortunes of the country.

China lost the land outside the customs of the three eastern provinces at most, and the territory inside the customs could not be swallowed by itself, China was still China, and the inheritance could not be broken. However, once the rìben is defeated, the position of the great power established by the rì Russian war will collapse with a bang. This is something that rì本zhèng fǔ cannot afford. Now that Okuma's regime is in jeopardy, Okuma's regime is in jeopardy, and at this critical juncture, Okuma Shigenobu certainly won't make a decision that threatens to leave him in the spotlight for 10,000 years.

Now the high-level people are in a game, and the radicals represented by the military department advocate westward expansion by force, take the three eastern provinces, eliminate Feng Yong's forces, and even if the empire cannot annex the three eastern provinces, it is necessary to establish a puppet that is completely subordinate to the empire. However, conservatives, led by corporate politicians, believe that war is not good for the fortunes of the country. At a time when the West is in a serious shortage of war resources, it is a good time to restore its own economy and develop industry, not to fight with the local powerful factions in China and consume the resources that the empire has accumulated with great difficulty. For the opinions of the two factions, zhèng fǔ is more inclined to the conservative faction led by the consortium politicians, after all, zhèng fǔ is built on the basis of political parties. The influence of the military in zhèng fǔ is relatively small. This is also the reason why the North Korean governor-general, General Terauchi Masaui, has not been authorized to send troops until now.

Now Rì Ben has declared war with Germany. The navy crisscrossed the Pacific Ocean, occupied some German islands in the Pacific, and cooperated with the army to usurp Germany's rights and interests in Shandong, China. It can be said that the purpose of the war against the Germans has been basically achieved. In the face of the proposal of Britain and France and other countries to send troops to Europe, the proposal of the United Kingdom has always been ambiguous. Just kidding, Europe is 108,000 miles away, and sending troops is not to be cannon fodder. Let the jīng rui soldiers of the rì ben go to the British and French and other countries, of course they are unwilling, but the British and French and other countries are not stupid, and they signed an alliance with the rì ben. However, the British and French ministers went to zhèng fǔ every day to urge, and Rì himself did not dare to blatantly break the contract, but he was unwilling to send troops, so he hit the idea of sending troops to China's head. If the Chinese can be persuaded to declare war on Germany and send troops to the West instead of rìben, that will not only consume China's national strength, but also save the trouble of sending troops to rìben.

Now that Rì has usurped a large number of rights and interests in Shandong, China, it is the time to bewitch the Republic of China and digest these interests, and if a war in the Northeast starts at this time, if it really arouses the hostility of the Republic of China, I am afraid that the interests that the empire has worked so hard to get in China will also be threatened. This is something that conglomerates and politicians cannot tolerate.

Mukden, the temporary headquarters of the Northeast Security Army.

"Major Marshal, the 4th Brigade and the 6th Brigade have completed their tasks, and the troops are being assembled. The gendarmerie and the Ministry of Finance have taken over the property and are in the process of being counted. The Lushun Concession also stopped the confrontation with our army and retreated to the concession. "The assassin sent the latest information to Feng Yong's hands.

"Very good" Feng Yong nodded with satisfaction, it seems that now Xiao Rì本zhèng fǔ has not yet decided whether to start a war in the Northeast or not.

"Young Marshal, the Third Brigade has reached the front of the border confrontation. Defensive positions are now being constructed. ”

Feng Yong nodded. "Tell Lin Hu to arrange a deep position, and tell the soldiers to pay attention to guarding against the enemy's artillery fire, and the current firepower of our Northeast Security Army is still not as good as that of our own army. Also, let the political commissar Yan Lei grasp the ideological problems of the troops, and tell the soldiers that there is nothing to be afraid of, and this young marshal is about to go to the front line to supervise the battle. ”

"Yes"

After the 2nd Brigade and the 4th Brigade completed their mission, a large number of prisoners were handed over to the custody of Zhèng Fǔ, and the troops were quickly assembled, of which the 4th Brigade was assembled towards Fengtian City and the 6th Brigade was assembled towards Liaoyang. Used as a reserve of the 2nd Brigade. Feng Yong was also just in case, if the 2nd Brigade failed to resist the Rì Army, the 6th Brigade and the 2nd Brigade could also be used as the second and third lines of defense.

The troops need to be assembled, and the province needs to count the results of this operation. Through this operation, the entire province of Mukden can be said to be shrouded in panic. Feng Delin controlled his newspapers and exposed the Manchu remnants' collusion with Rì himself in a vain attempt to subvert Zèng Fǔ's plot. Anyway, the big names in the Manchu Qing Dynasty were basically wiped out, and the remaining little shrimp were scared in their own homes and did not dare to take their heads, and it was not up to the Governor's Office to decide what happened.

No matter what happened, it was not very fast for Rìzi to continue as usual, and with the double pacification of the army and the newspapers, the people of Mukden City were the first to settle down. The next day, the provinces received land rights certificates from the Manchu nobles and landlords. After a bloody day, no single force in Mukden Province dared to resist the order of Mukden Province. You don't see, the Manchu masters who were still high above yesterday have become prisoners with nothing today. Land is a good thing, but what's the use of not having a life to enjoy. With the land to do things, the newly established zhèng fǔ in various county towns also acted quickly, using the land as a breakthrough to quickly gain the support of the local ordinary people.

"Young marshal, we're really getting rich now" Li Jun's face was full of exhaustion, but he couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

"Even? It looks like there is really a big harvest" Feng Yong was also interested, she knew that these Manchu relics must be extremely rich, but to what extent Feng Yong did not know.

"This is the list, you can see it for yourself" Li Jun excitedly handed the list that had just been delivered to Feng Yong.

Feng Yong was immediately dumbfounded when he looked at the number in advance.

Feng Yong swallowed his saliva fiercely, and said with some difficulty: "Brother Chuanxin, you are not mistaken?" The total value of silver is 400 million taels...... This...... It's too much."

"Yes, I didn't expect that I remember that in the Qing Dynasty before the Republic of China, the annual income was less than 80 million taels, but the total wealth of these Manchu widows alone exceeded the total income of the country for five years. Young marshal, I now understand why you are doing it to them. With this money, let alone a war with Rì himself, even the development of industry is a huge help. ”。.。
