Chapter 500: Sleek Yan Xishan
In the study, Feng Yong's surprised mood gradually recovered. His expression regained his confidence. Although he is no longer as conceited as he used to be, he is no longer the young man who has just crossed over, and he has made great progress in the past two years. Although Feng Yong can't guarantee that he won't make mistakes, his vision is always broader than that of people in this era. After figuring this out, the self-confidence that belonged to Young Marshal Feng returned.
Although the world pattern has changed, there are some things that cannot be changed, with the experience of the information explosion era, Feng Yong knows too many things far beyond this era, even if it is just a few skins, it is also the experience that future generations have summed up from countless failures, which can make one side of the force take fewer detours.
"How's it going to be about the infiltration of the Russian Far East?" Feng Yong asked in a deep voice. Since the last heavy blow to the Tsarist Far Eastern Army, the Tsarist Far Eastern Army chose to secretly recruit Chinese to enrich the Far Eastern Army in order to avoid the Tsar's accountability. Although later Jeff. With the help of Rasputin and other favored retainers, the Tsar relaxed his authority and asked him to expand the Far Eastern Army. Rasputin secretly sent tens of thousands of high-quality recruits to the Far East, and although there were few weapons and ammunition from Europe, the supply of other materials was still sufficient. It's just that Governor Jeff is not a man who knows the army at all, and he himself is far more interested in making money and holding balls than in controlling military and political power. It can be said that many things in his hands are done by his confidant Xu Zhiliang. Originally, the yellow race was looked down upon by Tsarist Russia. Not to mention that Xu Zhiliang is a prosperous man in the Far Eastern Governor's Palace, although he has no official position, the Russian officials of the entire Far Eastern Governor's Office dare not offend him. After all, the bloody corpses of the people who offended him were really chilling.
Xu Zhiliang was the youngest son of Guo Jianglong, one of the three major bandits in the Northeast that year. After Guo Jianglong became seriously ill, he was going to pass the position to him, but unfortunately, the eldest Xu Zhixiong started early, put his father under house arrest, and killed his younger brother, and he himself had to flee to the Far East. Later, after a period of depression, relying on his father's connections in Russia, he became a governor of the Far East, and was valued by Governor Jeff, nominally as a staff member, but actually a thug to help Governor Jeff deal with some dark things. After all, the river dragon is from the green forest, and Vladivostok, where the Tsarist Far East Governor's Office is located, is China's Vladivostok, and the Far Eastern Chinese are more concentrated in the place, although the scale of the Far Eastern Russians has increased a lot in recent years, but they are still inferior to the Chinese. There are naturally many bandits in these areas, and most of these bandits are looking forward to crossing the river. Later, these people were subdued by Xu Zhiliang, which also gave him some influence in Tsarist Russia. In addition, he is good at drilling, and finally obtained the rank of advancement and has today's status.
"Our people have infiltrated a lot. But at the moment they are all soldiers. The officers are basically old Maozi. Jing Tong said a little depressed. The Tsarist Far Eastern Army supplemented the Chinese soldiers, and of course it was easy for the assassins to infiltrate them, but the Russians were not stupid, and the soldiers could use the Chinese, but the officers could not. Even Xu Zhiliang, who presided over this matter, was never named in the Far Eastern Army.
"There is no need to rush this kind of thing, take your time, this time the Far Eastern Army is advancing westward, maybe it is an opportunity!" Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
"Young Marshal, according to our understanding, the Far Eastern Army will never let our Chinese soldiers participate in the war, this is not to protect the Chinese soldiers, but they are afraid of leaking the fact that the Far Eastern Army was disabled by us, not to mention that the current Tsarist Russia is still very jealous of Japan. It is likely that the Chinese soldiers will be left to bluff. Jing Tong said.
"Do you think this kind of thing can be hidden from the Japanese?" Feng Yong said disdainfully. Assassins can easily penetrate into the Far Eastern Army, how can Japan's special high school not know anything, as for why Japan has not made the slightest change, I am afraid it is also an idea. After all, anyone who knows the news will understand that the current Yuan Dongjun is just a paper tiger.
"Young marshal, of course I know this, but our people are only a small soldier in the Far Eastern Army, when will they be able to make a difference?" Jing Tong said helplessly.
"The first thing we need to do now is to infiltrate it, I will send a group of political workers to join the assassination training, and when the training is completed, you will secretly break them into the Far Eastern Army, so that even if they are just small soldiers, they can play a tandem and help each other." Feng Yong thought for a while and said. This is also the only way.
"Yes!" Jing Tong said in a low voice.
"Also, let the assassin stop stabbing Xu Zhiliang." Feng Yong said, a different color flashed in his eyes.
"Stop? Young marshal, we have several assassination plans against Xu Zhiliang. The first few failed assassinations also taught us a lot of lessons. I believe that he will never escape the next assassination. Jing Tong didn't understand why Feng Yong wanted to let go of that potential enemy.
"There's no need anymore. The existence of that person is not necessarily a bad thing for us, although we have a grudge against him, but he does not take the initiative to provoke us, so we should leave it alone. Feng Yong waved his hand and said.
"Young marshal, didn't you say that everyone should be punished for this kind of traitor?" Jing Tong said. During this period of time, there were many assassins and traitors who assassinated the country, some defected from the Northeast, and some other forces. Although Xu Zhiliang's behavior is not enough to be a traitor, Guo Jianglong was once an enemy in the Northeast after all. The natural assassination also positioned him as an assassination of dangerous elements in the Northeast.
So far, the assassination has been assassinated three times, but unfortunately Xu Zhiliang is cautious by nature, and the assassination has not succeeded once. The most dangerous time, the person who stabbed only injured Xu Zhiliang's arm.
This kind of assassination not only did not make Xu Zhiliang lose Governor Jeff's favor, but the assassination of his compatriots made Governor Jeff trust him even more. This is also the reason why he was able to achieve such a position within the influence of the Russians in the Far East.
"This time and that time." Feng Yong said. Seeing that Feng Yong had made a decision, Jing Tong nodded.
"Young Marshal, during this period of time, the envoys of Britain and France and other countries have been very active, I don't know what they are going to do?"
"The Russians withdrew from the world war, and the situation created by the coolies of Britain and France was broken, and of course they were nervous, and of course they wanted to win over more allies. Inform President Lebanese that China adheres to the principle of neutrality. That's not going to change. Originally, Feng Yong had no intention of participating in the current world war, but now that the situation in the world has changed, Feng Yong will not mix with the troubled waters. What's more, now that China has finally signed a technical cooperation agreement with Germany, it is a good time to use Germany's technology to develop its national strength, and it will not participate in it because of the bright prospects depicted by Britain and France. Even if China has some strength now, it is not a world power after all. If you really get involved in World War I, I'm afraid the final result will not be much better than the original history. If there is another May Fourth Movement in China now, Feng Yongke will really want to cry without tears.
"Young marshal, what about the domestic situation? Now Zhang Xun is almost disabled. The capital of Anhui was lost, and two-thirds of the entire Anhui region fell into the hands of Zhang Xiaozhun of Beiyang. On the battlefield in Henan, Wu Peifu also won one victory after another. If we don't intervene, the probability of a victory for Beiyang will reach 90%. Jing Tong said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Zhang Xiaozhun's victory is based on a sharp spirit, and it can be roughly judged that the Japanese have intervened in an all-out attack from Beiyang. However, even if small Japan intervenes, it will be difficult for Beiyang's strength to be greatly improved in a short period of time. And now our arms should also be transported to Zhang Xun and Zhao Qi, I believe they will also make some moves. Feng Yong smiled and said. Although the Japanese intervened suddenly, it did not surprise Feng Yong. If Japan had not intervened in China's turmoil, they would not have been Japan.
"Young marshal, after all, we are not the support on the surface, Zhao Kui and Zhang Xun may not be able to withstand the attack of the entire Beiyang!" Jing Tong is really not optimistic about Zhao Qi and Zhang Xu's strength.
"Although Zhang Xun and Zhao Kui are famous, their abilities are average. Now on the Beiyang battlefield, I am afraid that the only real combat strength is Xu Shuzheng's main force of the Beiyang Anhui system and Yan Xishan's Jin army. Yan Xishan did not move in Shanxi, and only sent Yang Aiyuan to lead an army of 20,000 to support Zhao Qi. Even if the Yan and Zhao coalition forces are at a disadvantage now, it is not easy for Wu Peifu to eliminate them and completely control Henan Province. Feng Yong thought for a while and said. After all, it is the future three giants of the Republic of China, the side of the Central Plains War, even if Yan Xishan is still a little tender now, but it is not something that ordinary people can take care of. In addition, Yan Xishan is very good at forbearance, and he can dispatch 20,000 elite troops to the south, which shows that the strength of the Jin army in Shanxi is far from being as simple as 50,000. This has to attract Feng Yong's attention.
"But young marshal, Henan is a province with a large population, if Beiyang is completely controlled, it will not be good for us! What's more, with Beiyang's current posture, once Henan is obtained, it will definitely concentrate on marching into Shanxi, and Yan Xishan will definitely not be able to withstand it. ”
"How about the assassin contacting Yan Xishan? The conditions we have put forward are already very generous. Yan Xishan still disagrees? "When it comes to Yan Xishan, Feng Yong's face is not very good-looking.
"Yan Xishan is very tactful and polite to our envoy, but as soon as we mention something substantial, he will shirk it." Jing Tong said helplessly.
"That's his character, he doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin. Now I hope that Beiyang can hit Shanxi, so that Yan Xishan will know how to choose after defeat! Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
"Shouldn't we do it a little harder? Let Yan Xishan taste failure early? Jing Tong asked.
"It's okay, let Yan Xishan see that it is not only on the battlefield that can achieve results." An intriguing smile appeared on Feng Yong's face.
