Chapter 486: Going South Asking for Subscriptions
Northeast Marshal's Mansion.
After receiving the news that Tang Jiyao in the southwest was killing in Sichuan Province, Jing Tong personally ran to Feng Yong to report. Tang Jiyao's decisive and ruthless actions exceeded everyone's expectations. In just three days, more than 2,000 people were caught and killed in less than one province of Sichuan, and this was the first time that such a large-scale and concentrated killing was the first time since the founding of the southwest.
"Young marshal, the chaos in the southwest is inevitable." Jing Tong said.
"Yes! People are not as good as heaven! Did the assassin find out something? This operation is so interlocking that I don't feel like a means of ordinary people! Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
"No, the current resistance forces in the southwest are mainly concentrated in the hands of the Southwest Business Alliance led by the Pao Brothers. Now that Tang Jiyao is killing in Sichuan, the Southwest Business Alliance is taking the opportunity to gather the hearts of the people, and the hearts of the people in the entire southwest are gradually moving closer to the Southwest Business Alliance. Jing Tong said.
"There is no way, the assassination of General Cai Yi has pushed Tang Jiyao to the cusp of the storm, if he does not take emergency measures, I am afraid that even Sichuan Province will be difficult for him to control. The southwest is known as the four provinces, but Guizhou is barren, Yunnan is remote, and Xikang is bitter and cold, all of which are difficult to become the foundation of the place, and only Sichuan Province, especially the Sichuan Basin, Chengdu Plain. As long as Tang Jiyao can firmly control the country of abundance, the situation in the southwest will not be irretrievably eroded. Feng Yong sighed and said. Regarding Tang Jiyao's approach, after understanding the situation, he still supported it. After all, the current situation in the southwest did not come into being overnight. Judging from the actions and methods of the Southwest Business Alliance, it shows that they have been prepared for a long time, and the Southwest Governor's Office has not taken the slightest precautions.
"Young marshal, are we taking the opportunity to meddle?" Jing Tong said. Although the Southwest Business Alliance claims to have 100,000 troops under its command, those troops are not in the eyes of the Northeast Army at all.
Feng Yong shook his head and said, "In a short period of time, the Northeast will not send troops!" Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
"No troops? Young marshal, are we just watching the southwest go into chaos? Jing Tong was puzzled. This kind of decision is not like Feng Yong's character at all. Feng Yong likes to take risks in doing things, not to mention this kind of adventure with great grasp. If Feng Yong ordered the dispatch of troops, although the Northeast was financially tight, Jing Tong believed that the final victory must be the Northeast Army, not to mention that the relationship between the Northeast government and the southwest government controlled by Tang Jiyao was irreversible.
"For the Southwest, the North Ocean, and even the two Guangzhous. We in the northeast will not send troops anytime soon. But this does not mean that we are indifferent to the actions of these forces. Now that the Independence Party has trained a lot of cadres, it is time to send them out. Infiltrate these areas. Moreover, we in the Northeast really need a stable period of time to digest and digest. Our evil neighbor is growing fast, and we cannot afford to be left behind. Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
"Infiltration? Young marshal, do you want to control these forces without bloodshed? Jing Tong said.
"This is the ultimate goal, and at the same time, it is also to promote the National Independence Party to the whole country, with the backing of the Northeast, which may have unintended consequences." Feng Yong smiled and said. Unlike the loosely organized Kuomintang, the National Independence Party (NDP), which he single-handedly founded, has a strict vetting system, and it is difficult to join without complete trust. This is also the reason why the National Independence Party in the Northeast has not been flooded. Feng Yong knows that in addition to the influence of a successful party, the tightness of its organization is also an important indicator. In later generations, the political parties of the Celestial Empire went through many tribulations, just like a big wave of gold rushing, retaining the essence seeds, growing and growing step by step with weak forces, and finally killed the giant Kuomintang.
The National Independence Party did not have the opportunity to go through those tribulations, so in the early days of its establishment, Feng Yong's assessment was extremely rigorous. Moreover, even if he joined the National Independence Party, there were great restrictions, and the punishment was very severe. After all, Feng Yong wants the National Independence Party to develop into China's ruling party, so he naturally has many requirements for it. Feng Yong didn't want the National Independence Party, on which he had pinned his hopes, to decay rapidly because of its poor organization. The Kuomintang's mistakes, Feng Yong didn't want to try again.
"Young Marshal, the million-strong army trained by the Northeast Military Region is about to become an army, don't we have a combat mission?" Jing Tong asked.
"In a short period of time, the main thing is to train the army and complete the equipment, and the army of millions is a million! Equipment alone is an astronomical amount of money, and we're under a lot of pressure! Where is there still the heart to care about the life and death of other forces. As long as they don't openly split the motherland, I, Feng Yong, can still tolerate their existence for the time being. Feng Yong turned to look at the long and narrow island country facing the northeast on the map and said.
After the armistice between Japan and China, the functions of the government changed rapidly, and Emperor Taisho personally intervened, and the prime minister of Terauchi Masatsu became almost an ornament, and the Japanese Minister of Economy personally presented to His Majesty the Emperor a strategy for reviving the economy and developing national strength, which was adopted by the Emperor. At the same time, the Japanese government finally began to abide by the offensive and defensive alliance signed with the British. And Japan has already decided to send a fleet to the West to escort convoys. At the same time, it is hoped that the performance of the Navy will be able to open up the Western market. and the United States for the benefits of the war.
"In the next few days, I'm ready to leave for Beijing. The Beijing government should also look like this. Feng Yong said in a deep voice.
Feng Yong's words lifted Jingtong's spirits, and Feng Yong set off for Beijing, and most of China's political center was about to shift from the northeast to Beijing. When the time comes, the whole of Beijing will once again resume its function as the political center of China. Of course, Feng Yong's trip to Beijing will definitely greatly weaken Li Yuanhong's authority. Li Yuanhong, the president of the Republic of China, because he took the initiative to move closer to the northeast, Feng Yong did not completely regard him as a puppet, and in some respects, Li Yuanhong, the president, still has some powers. Li Yuanhong is also interested, using these powers to really do some good things, and never intervene in matters related to the fate of the Northeast, and feel at ease to play the role of a puppet.
Feng Yong's southward movement represents the transfer of the political center of the Northeast, which is a grand occasion, and naturally it will not be carried out silently. After the news spread, the whole Changchun was boiling. Ordinary people are reluctant in their hearts, because Feng Yong is gone, Changchun City will no longer have the current development momentum, and the development speed will naturally decline. But it is not without benefits, the political center of the Northeast has shifted, and those upstarts in the Northeast will naturally move to Beijing. For those forces that rely on the development of political power, leaving the center of power, it is not far from decay. Therefore, almost all the major families in Changchun have put the transfer of headquarters on the agenda. For a time, housing prices in Beijing soared, and the original big families in Beijing were panicked. Everyone knows that with the arrival of a large number of upstarts in the Northeast, the forces of Sijiu City are really going to be reshuffled.
This time, Feng Yong went south, and only Beize Xiangling was with him. The eldest lady Zhao Ya is about to give birth in more than a month. Naturally, it is not suitable for a tiring journey. Moreover, the level of medical care in Beijing may not be as high as that of Changchun now. The second wife, Zhang Shouying, has just become pregnant, and it will take a while to have a baby, and she will not accompany her. As the president of the Mansfield Chamber of Commerce, the third lady Tuoba Huiji is an extremely important matter in the transfer of the headquarters of the Mansfield Chamber of Commerce, as the president, she naturally has to go to Beijing to arrange the headquarters of the Mansfield Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible. Therefore, she was one step ahead of Feng Yong's departure. As for Kitazawa Piaoxue and Feng'er, they are still young and continue to stay in the Northeast to complete their studies. Feng Yong was also worried that the two of them would do something beastly if they stayed by his side.
Kitazawa Xiangling is different, she has finished her studies, and it is now the time to do nothing. Feng Yong also turned a blind eye to it because of the estrangement in his heart, this time Feng Yong went south, and the old woman Feng personally made the decision, letting Beize Xiangling accompany him. After all, Kitazawa Xiangling studied medicine, and it was most suitable to serve as Feng Yong's life secretary. What's more, in the eyes of Old Lady Feng, there is nothing more important than opening up branches and leaves for the old Feng family. Although Feng Yong's two wives were pregnant, the old lady was not satisfied. Always thinking about looking for a few more ladies for Feng Yong, as for the newly passed marriage law in the Northeast, the old lady didn't pay attention to it at all, so what kind of law really dared to control Feng Yong's head? Unless those heads of the judiciary don't want to live.
By the time Feng Yong's train departed, various forces had received the news. Even the turbulent southwest has its eyes on Beijing. They all want to see what the consequences of Feng Shaoshuai's entry into Beijing will be.
Feng Yong's special train stopped in Fengtian City for an hour to pick up Jiang Baili, who had completed the task, and then the military train roared through the Shanhaiguan Pass and entered the pass.
Standing at the window, looking at the roaring peaks, even with Feng Yong's city government, it was difficult to hide the excitement in his heart. After entering the customs, it has been almost two years since he crossed over, and he has single-handedly built a powerful empire, and he has moved into the rich Central Plains from the bitter cold land of the Northeast, and his grand ambition to dominate the industry can be expected.
"Young Marshal, did you really decide to stop the battle?" Jiang Baili said with a glass of wine. As Feng Yong's special train, although the interior is not luxurious, there are still all the things that should be there.
"Hmmm! The Northeast is expanding too fast. If we do not stop resting and recuperating and calming down all the unstable factors within the country, I am afraid that when we conquer the whole country, it will be the time of internal collapse. Years of hard work will be in vain. Feng Yong said lightly.
"Young marshal, you can endure the temptation of unifying the whole country, and I admire you for stopping the attack at this time." Jiang Baili said with admiration: "With its strong force, the territory of the Northeast has expanded several times in just half a year, and the population has doubled. If it continues, when the local repressive forces are transferred to the battlefield, that will be the beginning of the local rebellion. And now stop, just in time to take advantage of the victory against Japan and the prestige of the Northeast Army is in full swing, solve all the hidden dangers inside, lay a solid foundation, and wait until the wings are full, and the battle will be decided. ”
"Huh! I'm not as great as you think. I am more concerned about the comparison of strength between us and Japan than at home. After General Cai's accident, I was already unsure of swallowing the southwest and beiyang in one gulp. If the War of Unification is stalemate, then we will lose the opportunity to rise, and when Japan's national strength is restored and developed, we will face even heavier pressure. Feng Yong smiled and said.
