Chapter 62: A turning point appears

Wang Maoru thought about it, nodded and said: "As for guns, I can see that I can basically be satisfied, but there is no problem with bullets." Pu Ji still didn't know that Wang Maoru had a small arsenal in the United States, and thought that this gun was really an American, and he was the one who made the matchmaking to pour out the arms. That night, Wang Maoru hurriedly sent a telegram to Fang Hongxin of the United States, and Fang Hongxin telegraphed back that there were 30,000 E1 rifles and 5 million rounds of ammunition in the warehouse, and if the production capacity was increased, another 3 million rounds of ammunition could be produced in a month. Wang Maoru asked him to temporarily invest money in the production of bullets, slow down the production of rifles, and ship them immediately.

After getting such a big order, Wang Maoru was very happy, and took a few henchmen to the Liuguo Hotel in Beijing to drink, and specially called Yanma for his subordinates to try.

However, what made Wang Maoru most happy was the news brought by Niu Delu of the War Department, the War Department had approved Wang Maoru's application to allow him to go to the border of the country, and had already booked a location, which was the triangle where Heilongjiang crossed with Mongolia and Russia, and the Hulunbuir area now administered by Russia.

The Hulunbuir Autonomous Government signed a contract with the Russians without authorization, which had greatly dissatisfied the Beijing government, and had taken in the rebel Babu Zabu and gathered nearly 10,000 people. Part of the Hulunbuir border army joined the rebels, and some of the border troops were driven out of Hulunbuir. In a word, Hulunbuir has been separated from the central government, and with the support of the Russians, it is very likely that another foreign government will emerge. Wang Maoru was very happy when he got the news, this task looks dangerous, but the wealth is in danger, if he is really photographed in a good place, he may be swallowed up by the Beiyang bigwigs in a few days.

A few days later, the eldest prince of Yuan suffered a disaster in the house of the favored concubine raised outside, and Wang Maoru spent 500 oceans in Beijing to help the favored concubine's family settle down, and gave 2,000 oceans to live. Yuan Keding thought that this Wang Maoru was a person with a heart, and when he heard him say that he wanted to lead troops and go to Hulunbuir, he frowned and said that this place was extremely dangerous, so it was better to go to Shandong to make money.

In this place of four wars in Shandong, the forces of various warlords and countries are intertwined, and Wang Maoru is not a place where he is accidentally ruined and even retreats. And Wang Maoru just wants to be a little warlord, not to make money, if he wants to make money, he would already be the richest in the country. Wang Maoru didn't think about it, and said: "What kind of identity are we, what do we need to do, just do it, although Hulunbuir is dangerous, it is not a place that cannot be visited." At this time, the country needs me, not when I care about the country. ”

In order to take advantage of the instability of northern Xinjiang to get territory, Wang Maoru once again asked Yang Du, a Beiyang think tank, to help him come up with ideas. Yang Du said: "This matter is in a hurry, and the War Department is pressing, all because of Duan Qirui." Wang Maoru knew that Yang Du had always been unaccustomed to Duan Qirui, and Duan Qirui was also unaccustomed to Yuan Shikai's think tank Yang Du, the two were still able to cooperate when Yuan Shikai was slightly popular, but after being in a high position, they became rivals. Yang Du has always admired the emperor's mental arts, and Duan Qirui is a light person who respects the republican system, so he regards Yang Du as the country's henchman. This Yang Du is cunning, Wang Maoru doesn't like to contact him very much, but Yang Du, as one of Yuan Shikai's henchmen, has to ask for it.

After asking for advice several times, Xu Shuzheng prevaricated that the War Department was studying and deciding, which also made Wang Maoru hold back his anger, and he just suffered a loss, and he has not made any compensation until now.

Yuan Keding and others privately recommended Wang Maoru to President Yuan Shikai to go to Hulunbuir to replace the original army envoy and defend the frontier. In addition, Yang Du also privately mentioned to Yuan Shikai that the War Department has too much power, and now Duan Qirui, the army chief who has just returned to Beijing to take office, cannot tolerate people, and he opposes the reform.

Yuan Shikai has a good impression of Wang Maoru, this person has been in Beijing for several years, and he has been transparent from black and white, his ambition is not small, and he is Yuan Keding's staff, and it is okay to go out to do a good experience. Hulunbuir, in particular, is basically full of Mongolian bandits, and it has long been out of the jurisdiction of the Beijing government. Hulunbuir went to be a border army, thinking that this person was really not afraid of death for promotion, but it was okay to let him go wherever he went to stir up trouble. Because of the land of Manchuria, the Japanese and Russian forces are entrenched and intertwined, and they are more useful than the Beijing government to speak, Yuan Shikai has long had the intention to fight for the right to return Manchuria to China. Yuan Shikai asked Wang Maoru to be a bomb to blow up all kinds of intertwined old forces in Manchuria, so that the Beiyang government could control the three provinces of Manchuria.

So he talked to the Minister of War Duan Qirui, Duan Qirui recalled that this person made the first contribution when he exterminated Bai Lang, and he still asked him to be promoted to the next level, and was canonized as a martial general by the Beiyang government. It's just that he took the liberty of becoming the commander of a brigade, and he was photographed before many Beiyang generals, I'm afraid that the generals below will not be convinced.

Yuan Shikai said that this person made great contributions in the process of exterminating the Bailang rebels, and Hulunbuir had broken away from the central jurisdiction at this time and intended to become independent, and the government must send a team of people over. Duan Qirui had just returned to Beijing to take up the post of army commander, and he also had the intention of repairing the relationship with Yuan Shikai, so he said that he would think about it and try his best to arrange it, and talked to Xu Shuzheng. Xu Shuzheng said that how could Wang Mao be as wishful, so he said that it was better to discuss it with the senior staff of the War Department, and the senior staff of the War Department was not still Xu Shuzheng's word, and the result was that the senior staff department discussed the disarmament of the army, and believed that the army of the Kuomintang, the man, was still disarming, and at this time, a brigade of Beiyang recruits was added, lest the southern representatives disagree.

Duan Qirui has just stepped down as the governor of Hubei and Henan, and he wants to make a difference, and he doesn't want to get too entangled in Wang Maoru's issue, so he asked Xu Shuzheng to report to him carefully and tell Duan Qirui about this person, I heard that he is quite wealthy, I don't understand why he went to the border army to suffer, and the place he went to was the most dangerous Hulunbuir. Xu Shuzheng Zhengse said that this person was quite ambitious, and the War Department was already ready to cut off his minions, disband his troops, and let him rise and surrender secretly, but he made such a scene, and his troops had to be reused.

Then Duan Qirui used the relationship of the Ministry of War (Xu Shuzheng is Duan Qirui's spy leader, Lu Jianzhang is Yuan Shikai's spy chief, these two people have always been incompatible, there is an attitude that I will oppose what you support, and I will support what you oppose, so that later Lu Jianzhang was directly ordered to be arrested and killed by Xu Shuzheng because of his support for his direct line) checked Wang Maoru's file, and Pu Ji's second brother Pu Ding was also in the Archives Management Office of the War Department, and he had already done his first qiē file. Looking at the information, I learned that he wandered in Western countries when he was young, and even worked as a beggar, but after returning to China, he made money by selling stockings in the capital, and because of his close relationship with ministers and wives of various countries, he first went to work in industry to make a fortune. Later, he entered the door and became a staff member with the eldest prince, because of the creation of the flying team, he entered the War Department system, and later entered the model regiment of the eldest prince, and at the same time served in the Ministry of Communications, and was familiar with the officials who supported the imperial system, especially Yan Fu, who was a cultural bag, and laughed at the eldest prince Yuan Keding in his heart for believing in everything, what a fool, and then looked down on Wang Mao Rulai.

Later, Yuan Shikai's government decided to send Bi Guifang and his party to negotiate with Russia on Outer Mongolia and Eastern Mongolia, asking for the War Department's support.

Duan Qirui naturally understood, it was imperative to recommend Wang Maoru to go to the far north to defend the border, and at this time, the Mongolian issue was still being negotiated, if he pulled back, he would really become a traitor. And Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng are both hardliners among the Chinese ** people, and they know that Hulunbuir is now probably occupied by those rebels who are fighting for independence. It's okay to send Wang Maoru to go, he is a person who doesn't know the depths, he thinks that he has money and becomes an official, so he is empty-eyed, he can go, and he will die there.

So Duan Qirui said to Xu Shuzheng that if this person had to go, he would send him to Hulunbuir and never return to Beijing. Xu Shuzheng thought about it, as long as he was in the center, this careerist Wang Maoru would not want to return to the center, so he said that it would be good for this person to be a substitute for the dead, Hulunbuir's Russians, horse bandits, and rebels were innumerable, and Wang Maoru would be a dragon and stabilize the north for the government, but most likely it seems that this Wang Maoru must have died in the hands of Mongolian, Russian and Japanese bandits.
