Then the naval officers raised their hands to vote, and it turned out that one-third of the three members of the building were in favor of it, and everyone looked at Chen Shiying, who was the only one who did not express his position, and Chen Shiying sighed: "My idea is to support going north." But after all, deciding whether to go south and go north or stay here is a big deal, and it can't be decided in a hurry, Chen Shiying discussed with Shen Honglie again, and Shen Honglie said: "You may send two warships to the north to see the sincerity of our army, can you?" ”

Chen Shiying consulted with everyone, and everyone decided to send two warships north to test it, so the Northeast Frontier Army applied for the Navy to go north to suppress bandits on the grounds that piracy was rampant in the Liaohe River, and the Navy consumption was borne by the Northeast Frontier Guards, and the Navy Chief Liu Guanxiong readily agreed, and Prime Minister Wang Shizhen was a good man, since the family Lang had the intention of a concubine, he also issued an order to allow the Navy to transfer two warships, Lijie and Lisui to the north.

After the two gunboats arrived at Qinhuangdao, Shen Honglie took the soldiers of the Northeast Frontier Army to board the ship and told Yin Zuyin and Zhang Yanxue, captains of the Lijie and Lisui, that the salaries of the two ships should be paid immediately. He asked his subordinates to bring silver dollars and put them on them, and the sailors and navy soldiers of the two ships were all concerned about encouragement, Yin Zuyin and Zhang Yanxue looked at each other, nodded, and asked: "Since the Northeast Frontier Army has seriously considered it, we will naturally report the situation truthfully." Shen Honglie invited the two to drink, and Shen Honglie's subordinates also worked very hard to win over the whole navy, and after a few days, they were already very acquainted, so they said to the two that the commander-in-chief asked them to escort the arms back to Yingkou, Liaoning, and the two naturally readily agreed.

When the Japanese munitions arrived at Qinhuangdao, before they docked, two medium-sized ships, the Lijie and the Lisui, appeared. Although the Lijie and the Lisui were both shallow-water gunboats, the Bohai Bay was not a deep sea, and the waves were not high, so the shallow-water gunboats were enough to sink the warship transporting munitions. Not to mention one warship, even three shells, the three arms ships transporting munitions can sink to the bottom of the sea. It turned out that the Japanese side also sent naval vessels to protect the arms merchant ships. It was only after entering the Bohai Sea that China learned that China had no warships at all in the Bohai Sea, so the Japanese frigates and frigates remained in Dalian. The three ships of the three munitions arrived at Qinhuangdao on their own.

Shen Honglie led his men to board the Japanese ship, and the Japanese businessman negotiated, saying that this was a weapon sold by Japan to the Chinese government. Shen Honglie said: "Our Northeast Frontier Army guards defend national security, maintain the territorial integrity of the country, and are also the first squadron, so you can transfer it to us." ”

The Japanese naturally refused to agree, so Shen Honglie said: "If you refuse to agree, three shells will come, and we will feed the fish and shrimp together." And you have already received the payment, and when you go to China, why can't we, as Chinese people, accept weapons? If you let the government find us, naturally I will have the governor of my family in charge. In the end, three Japanese ships carrying arms were forced to transfer to Yingkou, Liaoning Province. The Northeast Army was already waiting at the entrance of the camp and used small boats to remove all the munitions on the Japanese ships.

And Zhang Dashuai Zhang Zuolin personally led two regiments to wait in Qinhuangdao, but learned that the ordnance was snatched by the Northeast Frontier Army, and he was so angry that he vomited blood, and he also learned that they were snatched by the navy. The heart is still wondering, why does Wang Maoru still have a navy?

A day after Yin Zuyin and Zhang Yanxue helped the Northeast Frontier Army, the navy got the news, and the chief of the navy, Liu Guanxiong, was furious. Feng Guozhang was furious. The Admiralty was instructed to severely punish the non-loans. Navy Chief Liu Guanxiong immediately ordered the dismissal of Yin Zuyin Lijie from his post as captain and Zhang Yanxue from his post as captain of the Lisui.

The two discussed with each other, and since there was no place to keep a master here, they decided to lead the shallow water gunboats Lijie and Lisui to defect to the Northeast Frontier Army, so that the Northeast Navy finally had two warships, instead of the 30 or so anti-smuggling ships converted from cargo ships.

Xu Shuzheng learned in Tianjin that Wang Maoru actually had empty gloves and white wolves, earned the navy and munitions, and had not yet clashed with Zhang Zuolin, and felt as disgusting as eating flies, but after all, the Governor Corps had the support of the Northeast Frontier Army, which was the only benefit. Wang Maoru decided to support Duan Qirui, not because of the news that Xu Shuzheng provided this weapon, but because at this time, the Beiyang warlords decided that they could not be soft on the southern army, and they must support Duan Qirui's tough attitude towards the southern army.

Wang Maoru naturally couldn't fall behind the Beiyang warlords, so Zhang Kuian arrived in Tianjin as the deputy chief of staff (newly promoted) and liaison officer of the staff of the Northeast Army Command and participated in the meeting in Tianjin, and Zhang Zuolin also went to Tianjin in person and attended the meeting. Originally, Xu Shuzheng should have begged Zhang Zuolin, but at this time, history was changed and Zhang Zuolin begged Xu Shuzheng. Xu Shuzheng and Zhang Zuolin have a good personal relationship, and at this time the Anhui system also needs a boost, it just so happened that Zhang Zuolin was driven to Jinzhou, southern Liaoning, and he can be regarded as a warlord who does not even have a territory.

Zhang Kuian was not embarrassed to see Zhang Zuolin, and said with a smile: "Yushuai, with you as the representative of the Northeast Frontier Army, you will definitely be able to determine the Southern Army in one fell swoop." Zhang Zuolin could afford to put it down, and said: "There is no place for me in the Northeast, so naturally I have to choose a good place, what does Staff Officer Zhang have to do?" Zhang Kuian was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

The Overseer Council decided that the participating provinces declared independence, forcing Feng Guozhang to invite Duan Qirui out of the mountain, and the Overseers expressed their support, so a day later, the agreement drafted by the Overseers was introduced, first Zhejiang and Shanghai declared independence, and then other provinces declared independence one after another. Feng Guozhang was scared now, and hurriedly found someone to make peace, first to find Premier Wang Shizhen, Wang Shizhen knew about the dispute between the two, and resigned from the post of prime minister because he did not participate. Feng Guozhang had no choice but to allow Wang Shizhen to resign, but let the Minister of Internal Affairs Qian Neng concurrently serve as the premier. Qian Nengxun hurriedly said that he would rather resign than go to Tianjin to ask Duan Qirui to be a lobbyist, and he was also afraid of seeing Xu Shuzheng ridiculed by him. Feng Guozhang had no choice but to send the secretary Liao Zhipeng to invite Duan Qirui out of the mountain.

Duan Qirui is naturally not able to go out of the mountain lightly, Liao Zhipeng was stopped by Xu Shuzheng once he went to invite, and sneered: "Let's ask the president to reply to the opinion of the Overseer first." Liao Zhipeng had no choice but to leave and reply to President Feng Guozhang.

This New Year in Harbin is indeed different, the old Maozi who used to show off their might and loot at will on the street are gone, and they look like they are full of gentlemanly etiquette like European aristocrats. Wang Maoru looked out in the car, his heart was full of disdain, whether these Russians, Japanese, or people from any country, as long as you are stronger than him and let him be afraid, they will respect you, otherwise they will bully you again and again.

"Crackling ......"

The firecrackers were abandoned at the front, and the captain of the guard, Bai Ziqing, rode back on a white horse and said, "The front is the opening of the Harbin Company of Gaoling Film Company." ”

"Opening on the twenty-eighth of the new year?" Wang Maoru was surprised.

"Yes."

Zhang Yiwei reminded: "Jin Xiushan once sent you an invitation letter, but his subordinates kept in mind your admonition, the principle of military first, then political affairs, foreign first, then domestic, security first, and miscellaneous affairs second, so they are ready to take advantage of your spare time to sue you." ”

Wang Maoru waved his hand, disappreliant, and said: "It's okay, Jin Xiushan probably thought that I didn't have time to participate, he is very powerful, and he is now known as China's No. 1 director." ”

Zhang Yiwei said with a smile: "Even if you are the first director in China, someone must praise it, and the reason why everyone gives Jin Xiushan face is not because you are his brother." ”

"He's very good and talented himself." Wang Maoru said, "It's not just because I helped him. Said to Bai Ziqing: "That's it, go to the hospital in another way." ”

The Harbin General Hospital of the Russian Far East has now been transformed into the First Hospital of the Northeast Frontier Army, where soldiers who have been wounded in the battle have been treated over the years. Some of these wounded soldiers were disabled in battle, some were disabled in training, some were sick, and some had a phobia after the battle and went insane. War has led to leapfrogging progress for mankind, but it has also made people crazy.

Many people see the benefits of war, but few people see the harm and pain caused by war, and those who die in battle are certainly worthy of admiration, but few of the disabled soldiers who survive are treated well. When Wang Maoru walked into the hospital, many wounded soldiers ran out with their mutilated bodies to welcome General Shangwu, their idol.

Wang Maoru didn't feel good in his heart, walked up to everyone and shook hands, and said, "The country thanks you." ”

"Be loyal to the show." A soldier with only one hand left said excitedly.

In his previous life, Wang Maoru saw those leaders on TV condolences to the victims to shake hands one by one, and often scolded them for being hypocritical, but now it seems that at this moment, in this situation, only a handshake can touch everyone. In addition to the injuries, the nurses in the hospital also ran out, all female nurses, Russians, and Chinese girls, but they were unsubtle and screamed, which made Wang Maoru very embarrassed. Walking into the crowd, Wang Maoru said: "I came here today to tell you that the contributions you have made to the motherland and the sacrifices you have made for me must not be like this, I have said. If you die in battle, I will raise your parents, and I will raise your family. You're injured, I'll arrange your way back. Now I officially announce a decision that from now on, all retired soldiers will be given priority to enter the government and have the same opportunities, regardless of the conditions and status of the other party, and retired soldiers will be given priority. From now on, any young man who wants to become an official in the three eastern provinces, please go to the army first and live with my soldiers. Only retired soldiers are qualified, and only those who have shed blood, shed tears, and shed flesh for the motherland are qualified to dictate the future of this country. ”
