This time, a total of 40 mountain guns, 50 machine guns, 3,000 rifles, and a large number of shells and bullets were obtained from the Japanese. During the suppression of the rebellion in southern Liaoning, the Feng army captured a large amount of Japanese equipment, and now it is enough to equip a division of Japanese-style equipment.

The quality of Japanese weapons is far less good than that of Europe and the United States, but it is more suitable for the physique of the Orientals, so it is also very popular among the Feng army.

Now the Russian-made equipment of the Feng army is obtained from the Middle East Road, who knows how long the European war can be fought, if the railway no longer transports weapons, the Feng army will not have the opportunity to get on and off the hands, and the source of weapons will disappear, so it is better to change into Japanese-style equipment, which is more secure.

"I'm against changing into Japanese-style equipment." Zhang Tinglan said: "There are no harsh conditions for the purchase of Japanese equipment this time, and the price is also very fair, because we hold the handle of Japan in our hands, and I dare to say that if we purchase it again next time, the Japanese will already slaughter us, and there will definitely be no politeness." ”

In fact, being slaughtered is still a trivial matter, and the key is that after using Japanese-style weapons, it is necessary to hire Japanese consultants and instructors, and the later repairs and maintenance must rely on the Japanese, and ammunition must also be purchased from them, which is tantamount to being controlled by others everywhere. Since then, the Feng army has fallen under the control of the Japanese, which is absolutely intolerable for Zhang Tinglan, who has always sought independence.

"Seven masters, if you want to solve the problem of weapons, the key is to produce them yourself, so that we not only don't have to be slaughtered, but we can also use these weapons to slaughter others, and then the huge profits will come back. Our arms production can become bigger and bigger, and jishu is becoming more and more mature. ”

"It's best to be able to produce it yourself, but the speed is a bit slow, and it won't take three or five years to get results."

"It won't take that long!" Zhang Tinglan showed a smug smile on his face: "Russia is almost unable to hold on, this winter, many Russians have starved to death, several arsenals in the Far East have stopped, and the machines are still on the side like scrap metal, we just need to find a way to move back!" ”

Lao Zhang heard this. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but rub his hands.

"To put it mildly, can the Russians be willing to sell their machines at this time, they are not afraid of the end of the country!"

"Of course they were scared, so they transferred their property. We have a lot of Russian aristocratic accounts in our Mukden Bank, and they have a lot of cash and jewelry. There are even title deeds to the property. These things are in our hands, and we don't have to worry about them being disobedient. Zhang Tinglan said with a smile, Tsarist Russia is like a dying giant, all the Russian magnates are crazy about accumulating wealth, very similar to the end of the Ming Dynasty, knowing that it will be over. But one by one, they are pushing the country to death.

Since the smuggling net was opened, the Russian magnates have fallen one by one, and there have been several officials in the Far East during this period, but it has no effect at all. Just want to live in the Far East. It is necessary to consciously join this circle of interests, otherwise there will only be a dead end, the Russians will fight among themselves, which is more bloody and cruel than China, and it is a piece of cake to raid and destroy the family.

These powerful people are like addicted to drugs, they can't give up the huge profits of smuggling, and they are worried about being liquidated by the country, so they transfer their wealth without exception, and Mukden Bank receives a considerable amount of property.

After Zhang Tinglan got hold of these deadly accounts, the threat to those powerful officials became bigger and bigger, as long as he crooked his mouth, he could ruin a person's reputation. If these guys can help get the machine, they will be rewarded handsomely, and if they dare to obstruct it, they will wait to be shot!

Zhang Tinglan, the biggest smuggling leader, has completely corrupted the Russian Far East, and there is really nothing that cannot be done. After returning to Mukden this time, he communicated with Fred again, and found that the strength in his hands was even greater, and he also had the capital to attack the factory machines.

Moreover, Fred also developed a feasible plan, mixing the machines with wood and transporting them to Mukden, coercing and inducing ordinary workers, and those high-ranking workers were directly kidnapped, and with people and machines, there were factories.

"The dismantling operation has begun, the first one is two rifle production lines, I estimate that within a month we will be able to transport them through the Middle East Road, and within three months, we will be able to produce our own water bead rifles!"

When Lao Zhang heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the smuggling business would do it to such an extent, it was beyond his imagination, and after barely regaining consciousness, Lao Zhang's heart swelled with bursts of ecstasy.

"To put it mildly, it's not enough to have a rifle, but also to have a cannon and a machine gun."

"Of course not, the artillery factory and the gunpowder factory will also be moved, and I am also going to bring the steel factory and the metallurgical factory over. The scale of enterprises in the Russian Far East is not large, and the jishu is not advanced, but for our fledgling industry, it is the most haode choice, relying on these machines, Fengtian can train a large number of workers, and the strength of the Fengtian army is just around the corner. ”

"Good! That's great! Lao Zhang looked very excited: "If we can solve the weapon problem, we don't have to be controlled by others." ”

"Not only do we not have to be controlled by others, but we can also turn around and use weapons to control other shili." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Since we can produce weapons, we should start looking for a market, the Beiyang Army in the Guannai may not look down on these yet, we will sell them to the northwest, and Shanxi and Shaanxi will also be willing to buy them." In fact, we can also be middlemen, second-hand dealers, buy some weapons from Japan, and then sell them to those guys in the northwest at a high price, and at least double the profit. ”

Zhang Tinglan is also very excited, the benefits of being able to produce weapons are too many, Lao Zhang also has a spectrum in his heart, the army will still use Russian-made equipment in the future, as for those Japanese munitions can be temporarily used to train new soldiers, and then sold for money in the future, even if it is second-hand, it is also very popular among the warlords in the northwest and even the southwest.

Just when the Feng army was making various preparations, the news finally came from Lao Feng's side, and after some painstaking thinking, Feng Delin resolutely refused Zhang Zuolin's order, and the officers of the 28th Division could not be sent to the lecture hall, let alone open a special account for the soldiers.

On the contrary, Lao Feng put forward three conditions, requiring the establishment of a helper office in Fengtian, with a status equal to the general's office; All government affairs after Fengtian must be attached to the office office; In addition, 1 million will be allocated to upgrade the equipment of the 28th Division.

In the face of Lao Feng's unreasonable demand, of course Zhang Zuolin would not admit it, and he immediately confronted it, asking Feng Delin to give up the unreasonable demand and comply with the order.

The two sides are coming and going, the smell of gunpowder is getting stronger and stronger, and the newspapers in Mukden are also reporting one after another, and the common people who have finally gained peace are facing war again, and they are very frightened, but there are some things that they cannot decide, and they can only watch.

When the two sides were arguing, Fengtian deducted all the military salaries and food of the 28th Division, and at the same time Lao Zhang ordered the removal of the commanders of the two 28th Divisions.

This hand knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger, which completely angered Feng Delin, Lao Feng summoned several henchmen to draw Jin Chun, Kan Chaoxi and Zhang Haipeng together, his expression was very excited, and he roared loudly: "Zhang Xiaoman deceived people too much, and wanted to take away Lao Tzu's 28th Division, that was wishful thinking, I decided to send troops to Fengtian to crusade against Zhang Zuolin, what do you think?" ”

"Division commander, Zhang Zuolin now holds the strength of two divisions, Wu Junsheng also took refuge in him, plus Zhang Zuoxiang has gathered all the soldiers in the East Side Road into his hands, they have nearly four divisions of Liliang, and we have a hard fight with him, our chances of winning are not great!"

Ji Jinchun said with some anxiety that he had always had a very good relationship with Zhang Zuolin, and he also saw through that Feng Delin did not have a future for Lao Zhang, so he was very reluctant to go to war directly with Zhang Zuolin.

The strength of the two sides is obvious, even Kan Chaoxi, who has been fighting the main battle, is a little silent, but Zhang Haipeng still has some confidence, he said: "Although Zhang Zuolin has a lot of soldiers, but there are many places to guard, Wu Jun is promoted to Chifeng, far water does not quench the thirst of the near, Zhang Zuoxiang has just taken over the east side of the road, and he has to stabilize the place, and he can't transfer many troops, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is still a contest between our 28th Division and the 27th Division, I think if we can quickly solve the battle and take Fengtian, we still have a great hope of winning." ”

After Zhang Haipeng finished speaking, Feng Delin nodded with satisfaction: "That's true, Zhang Xiaoren is nothing remarkable, over the years, we have experienced many winds and waves, and we can pass through this pass in front of us." Haipeng, you led your subordinates to serve as a pioneer officer, and Jin Chun stayed to watch the family. ”

Lao Feng gave an order, and the 28th Division was also mobilized, and at this time, there was another person who was also alarmed, that is, Tang Yulin. Lao Tang rebelled against Zhang Zuolin, but only brought in about 2,000 people, and it was a rabble, in Lao Feng's eyes, Tang Yulin's worth quickly depreciated.

It's even a little insignificant, Lao Tang has been very depressed for a while, and there is nothing else to do every day except for drinking and beating people.

He also heard that Feng Delin was going to send troops, so he found Lao Feng and took the initiative to ask Ying to kill him back to Fengtian, he wanted everyone to see that Tang Yulin was still a fierce general, not a wasted person.

Lao Feng couldn't discourage him, so Tang Yulin and Zhang Haipeng led the vanguard troops, left Beizhen, and went straight to Xinmin.

Zhang Zuolin had already sent a large number of people, and from the moment Feng Delin transferred troops, Lao Zhang already knew, and the Feng army also launched an operation.

The 27th Division was mobilized, and Zhang Tinglan was also ordered to lead a regiment to participate in the battle, and they also left Mukden in a grand way. Zhang Zuolin and Feng Delin can be called a pair of fateful enemies, how many years have they been entangled with each other, there have been times when they have helped each other, and there have been times when they have dismantled and confronted, and now they have finally developed to meet each other, and there will be a real master in Fengtian!
