It turned out that after Duan Qirui instigated the Congress to force President Xu Shichang to appoint Zhang Jingyao as the overseer of Hunan, it aroused the dissatisfaction of Wu Peifu, Cao Zhi's most capable general. And Zhang Jingyao was not angry, after coming to Hunan, he levied violently, married seven or eight concubines, and embezzled hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in two years, and the people's taxes were too large and caused dissatisfaction among the people.

So the people complained to various governments about Zhang Jingyao, but this place in Hunan is too chaotic, there are Feng Yuxiang's direct lineage, Cheng Qian's Northern Expeditionary Army, Zhang Jingyao's Beiyang Army, Tan Yanmin's National Army, and Zhao Hengxi's Hunan Army, the whole pot of eight-treasure porridge, no one wants to meddle in affairs. The people of Hunan first went to Beijing to sue Zhang Jingyao for looting the people's fat and ointment, and the Beijing government said that the Hunan matter was resolved within Hunan. He went to the government of the Republic of China in Guangdong to complain, but Guangdong was only a conglomerate of warlords, Sun Wen was just an ornament, and even the parliament was an extraordinary parliament, and this government was obviously illegal, so it was also pushed back. At this time, some people said that it was better to find Wu Peifu, and when Wu Peifu hit Hunan, the soldiers he brought did not commit any crimes, so he looked for Wu Peifu again, but Wu Peifu was also sick in Luoyang, Henan at this time, and the people of Hunan were dumbfounded, what should I do now? Someone said that it was better to find Wang Maoru, a martial general, in line with the principle of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, several Hunan gentry ran to Guisui to find Wang Maoru, but Wang Maoru had already returned to Shenyang, and they came to Shenyang again.

When Wang Maoru saw the Hunan gentry, he had a very good attitude towards them, talked to them personally, and asked about the livelihood of the Hunan people, he was embarrassed, and said: "Zhang Jingyao is not suitable to be an overseer, he is a corrupt official, a cool official, don't want this kind of person." Ladies and gentlemen, even though I am only the deputy commander of the army, I have to speak for the people of Hunan as an official position. ”

Later, Wang Maoru issued a telegram, asking Zhang Jingyao to be lenient and reduce taxes and pay light servitude. Don't let Hunan become a swamp, and ask the president to remove Zhang Papi from the post of overseer, and let the virtuous and capable people directly subordinate to the Hunan people for the benefit of the Hunan people. Zhang Jingyao immediately responded, and he pointed out that Wang Maoru was trying to redeem his army. As a result, people in the northeast have been displaced, and people cannot live and work in peace and contentment. I hope he will take care of his own turf and don't worry about others. Wang Maoru ordered Yang Du to write a telegram, asking Wang Maoru for the life of the people of Hunan and scolding Zhang Jingyao. Yang Du gladly accepted the order.

Yang Du's writing skills were really unusual, and he accused Zhang Jingyao of brutalizing the Hunan people, and accused him of collecting wealth for the central government of Anhui and colluding with Japan in an attempt to start a civil war again. Yang Du knew. At present, the people are very angry with the Japanese government, and the relations between the five northeastern provinces where Wang Maoru is located and the Japanese government have gradually entered a period of ice, which is even worse after the return of the four Japanese intervention forces.

The Japanese government has deliberately stopped aiding Wang Maoru's territory, and has withdrawn some experts and technicians, and even Prime Minister Hara Kei plans to sell bonds - of course, if he sells early, the bonds will most likely become a piece of waste paper, and Prime Minister Hara Takashi's antipathy to selling China's Huaxia National Bank bonds was unanimously opposed by the Japanese financial community and ultimately failed to make the trip.

The Japanese think they have the economic lifeblood of the Chinese, but in fact, the role of this bond is also twofold. Debt does not mean that the country is weak. In later generations, the United States owed the world the most money, especially China, but their attitude towards China was also the most complicated. The relationship between the two countries is both cooperation and adversary, you have me, I have you, and the U.S. sanctions on China are ultimately hurting both sides. So Yuan Jing's calculation was wrong. And Wang Maoru has long known that the sharp blade of the economy has been used well, and the bullets fired at him will sometimes turn around and hit it.

Wang Maoru expressed sympathy for the chaos in Hunan. However, due to the commitment to the central government, it will no longer enter the customs. Therefore, some of them are inadequate. However, he said that he very much hopes that the people of Hunan will be able to immigrate to the northeast, and that the large-scale development of the northeast needs the support of the broad masses of the people of Hunan. Subsequently, he sent a telegram to Zhang Jingyao, asking Zhang Jingyao not to obstruct the people of Hunan from immigrating to the five northeastern provinces. Zhang Jingyao would not pay attention to those poor people, he did not have a good relationship with Wang Maoru, but he didn't want to offend him, so he expressed his support. Wang Maoru then sent staff and Hunan village gentlemen to return to Hunan and recruit Hunan immigrants.

The people of Hunan have no choice but to emigrate, and the government is dark and unable to resist, so it is better to leave here. On the first day of their stay in Hunan, the staff of the Immigration Department received more than 600 applications, and the next day more than 1,000. A trainload of people was assembled and immediately sent to the Northeast and Mongolia, where they received Hunan immigrants. Most of the immigrants came to the Northeast and lived in various parts of the Northeast, and the biggest change that brought to the Northeast was to improve the eating habits of the Northeast people.

It turns out that Hunan people love spicy food, while Northeast people don't like spicy food, but spicy taste can make food delicious.

Hunan's problems can not only be solved by immigrants, but also by the Hunan people themselves, so the Hunan people turned their attention to the head of the local warlord Zhao Hengxi in Hunan. It's just that Zhao Hengxi only has the territory of three counties, three thousand soldiers and a thousand guns, and the rest are all holding big swords and spears. The Hunan gentry then pooled money to donate to Zhao Hengxi, and Wang Maoru also secretly sent people to support Zhao Hengxi with 2,000 second-hand E1 rifles and 100,000 rounds of ammunition. Zhao Hengxi was extremely moved, and secretly sent an envoy to the northeast, expressing his willingness to support Wang Maoru Wang Deputy Chief.

Wang Maoru didn't need his support, he just hoped that the south would be more chaotic and more advantageous outside the border. At this time, Wang Maoru also received a call from Sun Wen in the south. It turned out that Sun Wen returned to Guangdong in June of the eighth year of the Republic of China, and relied on the help of Chen Jiongming to expel the Gui warlords in Guangdong, regain the city of Guangzhou, and once again assumed the post of president of the Southern Revolutionary Government of the Republic of China. But in the face of the pressure of the Gui family, Sun Wen felt that he was weak, so he called Wang Maoru when he returned to China, hoping to get Wang Maoru's support.

There is no problem in supporting Sun Wen, and now Sun Wen is just a puppet in the hands of the warlords, Wang Maoru called Zhang Kuian, asked him to serve as an envoy to Guangdong, and sent weapons and ammunition to support, and at the same time was responsible for the negotiation of the revolutionary government in the south. Wang Maoru told Zhang Kuian: "The Kuomintang is weak, but they are very strong, and you have a few things to do when you go to the south." ”

Zhang Kuian hurriedly said: "Xiu Shuai said in detail. ”

Wang Maoru said: "Sun Wen needs nothing more than arms support from our army, and you will definitely be ceremoniously received when you go." But you have to remember that the Kuomintang is also the most ruthless, and it is not as good as the warlords. After you go, not only do you have to win over the Kuomintang officials, but you also have to have a good relationship with Chen Jiongming, this person is a talent, but it's a pity that he is a little soft-hearted. ”

Zhang Kuian smiled: "Xiushuai, I understand what you mean, two peaches kill three soldiers?" ”

Wang Maoru patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and then changed the topic: "By the way, you talk to the Guangdong Revolutionary Government about whether their navy can afford it, if not, I am willing to accept it, and exchange it with arms, and at the same time I will subsidize their 500,000 ocean military salaries." ”

Zhang Kuian said with a bitter face: "Xiushuai, as soon as you close your mouth, it will be 500,000 silver dollars, you can know how the financial income of our Northeast is." ”

Wang Maoru snickered: "Song Ziwen and Zhang Hongyang got this for me, it's okay, don't worry." ”

Zhang Kuian patted his head and sighed: "Xiushuai, your heart is really too big. ”

", even I dare to tease." Wang Maoru scolded with a smile.

Zhang Kuian said: "Don't worry, Xiushuai, I will take care of it, I will definitely be able to bargain, what is the rest of the ocean for?" ”

"What are you going to do?" Wang Maoru asked rhetorically.

Zhang Kuian said with a smile: "Can you do the funds of our foreign affairs department, everything must be approved by the logistics department, and our foreign affairs department is very difficult." You know, when we buy other people, a lot of money goes down. Do you know where we got our money now? ”

"From?" Wang Maoru asked.

Zhang Kuian smiled bitterly: "The military intelligence department confiscated the property of the traitor and traitor and intercepted it for us to use, Xiushuai, we are bitter......

Wang Maoru kicked over and said, "Give me an honest job, hurry up to Guangzhou, and talk less nonsense." ”

After Zhang Kuian came to Guangzhou, he had a secret conversation with Sun Wen and others, and put forward Wang Maoru's opinion, Sun Wen and others thought about it for a long time, thinking that the navy would not be of much help to the Northern Expedition, and that the main battlefield in the future would be on land, so they secretly agreed to Wang Maoru's request. However, the Navy itself did not know that they had been privately sold by the Southern Revolutionary Government to the Commander-in-Chief of the Wehrmacht, Wang Maoru. At this time, the commander of the navy of the Southern Revolutionary Government was Lin Baoyi who warmly received Zhang Kuian, and Zhang Kuian said to Lin Baoyi: "Brother Yueqing, you are an officer of the Fujian department, and it is really not easy to work hard for the Chinese navy in many ways under the jurisdiction of the Guangdong navy. ”

Lin Baoyi smiled bitterly when he heard this, the navy of the revolutionary government of the Republic of China was really raised by a little girl, a group of Fujian officers came to Guangdong with warships to join the revolutionary government to oppose the imperial system, but they were secretly suppressed by the Guangdong officers, three years have passed, the military expenditure of the revolutionary government navy has not yet been settled, and even the navy has stopped training in order to save coal. Although the former naval commander Cheng Biguang was a native of Guangdong, he graduated from the Fujian Mawei Naval Academy and belonged to the Fujian military officer, and his killing was once rumored to be assassinated by the Kuomintang assassins who had always loved assassination because Cheng Biguang and Lu Rongting and others expelled Sun Wen, but the Kuomintang immediately responded that there was absolutely no such thing. It's just that this has caused a great shadow in the hearts of the officers from the Fujian department, and for a while, there are different opinions, and the navy does not trust the Kuomintang anymore.

As for sowing discord, Zhang Kuian stopped talking briefly, Lin Baoyi is not a fool, he naturally knows what he means. Later, Zhang Kuian visited Chen Jiongming, and at this time, Chen Jiongming's new Sun Wen was appointed and assumed the post of commander of the Guangdong army. The high-spirited Chen Jiongming obviously didn't care about Zhang Kuian's wooing, and even looked down on Wang Maoru's use of this despicable way to sow discord. Zhang Kuian's saw that he couldn't win over Chen Jiongming, so he spent all his thoughts on the navy, and Sun Wen intended to give up the navy, so he didn't stop Zhang Kuian's small moves. Subsequently, under the farewell of the ships of the Guangdong Navy, Zhang Kuian successfully completed the task and returned to Guanwai.
