"Very good, everyone. Zhang Yuting has taken the bait. Through him, the empire could quickly take control of the entire northeast and would not be easily opposed by the Chinese. This would undoubtedly be very beneficial for the Empire to plunder the resources of the northeast!”Kaku Nakamura was very satisfied.
"Then, the most important problem now is to help Zhang Yuting defeat Feng Linge. With Zhang Yuting's current strength, it would not be too difficult for him to defeat Feng Linge. Zhang Yuting's strength was far stronger than Feng Linge's, right?”Yujiro Nakamura said.
"Mr. President, Zhang Yuting was indeed stronger than Feng Linge in the past. However, in the past half a year, Feng Linge had begun to expand its army crazily. Its strength was not much weaker than Zhang Yuting's. Previously, the Empire's intelligence department had suspected where Feng Linge had gotten the funds and ammunition to expand the army. It turned out that the Americans were behind it.”The 17th division's major general, Fujiwara Hongo, said.
"If Zhang Yuting attacked alone, he might be able to defeat Feng Linge, but his losses would not be too small. This was very disadvantageous for Zhang Yuting to quickly control the entire northeast. Therefore, it was better for the dynasty to participate. This way, Zhang Yuting would be able to see the might of the empire and not dare to betray the empire!”Lin Quanzhu said.
"Yuxi! The Consul is right. We need to fully demonstrate our strength in front of Zhang Yuting. This way, Zhang Yuting would know that if he betrayed the empire, the empire could crush him like an ant!”Kakuten Nakamura's face was full of smiles.
"Your Excellency, how many troops do we need? The 17th Infantry Division wasn't full yet, only having a few thousand men.”said Lieutenant General Fujiwara.
The 17th Infantry Division had a total of 28,000 soldiers. But now, most of the soldiers had already retired, and the entire division was only left with a shelf.
"There's no need for the 17th Infantry Division to move out. Don't we still have six independent railway garrisons in the northeast? He just needed to mobilize these few independent railway garrison teams to attack. The Empire's elite soldiers could easily take on ten enemies at once!”Kakuten Nakamura was very confident.
In other words, they were looking down on Feng Linge's troops. Even the Northern Ocean Army, which was known to be the strongest, was not taken seriously by the Japanese. Not to mention that Feng Linge was just a local warlord.
"Haha! The combat strength of the few independent railway garrison teams was quite good. They were all made up of veterans. I believe that just these few independent railway guards are enough to defeat Feng Linge's troops.”Yujiro Nakamura also laughed out loud.
The rest of the Japanese were all smiling. They were also full of confidence in the independent railway garrison.
The Japanese had deployed a total of six independent railway guards along the South Manchurian railway. They had more than 6,000 soldiers, and their combat strength was very strong.
"In that case, it looks like the 17th Infantry Division won't have the chance to go on the battlefield.”Lieutenant General Fang Taro said regretfully.
"It's just a small local warlord in China. That was simply too flattering!”
These high-ranking officials didn't put Feng Linge's troops in their eyes.
However, they would soon be shocked.
Feng Linge's three infantry divisions were fine, even though they had changed to American equipment, their firepower was not very strong. As for Feng Ping's temporary 1st division, they were armed to the teeth. Not only would Zhang Yuting be badly injured, but the Japanese would also have to pay a heavy price.
After that, Consul Lin Quanzhu took the train back to Mukden and continued to meet with Zhang Yuting.
"General Zhang, the Governor's Office of the Guandong Province has decided to send troops to assist you. The empire's six independent railway garrison troops stationed along the South Manchurian railway had already been ordered to assemble. At that time, when your army attacks, they will attack together!”Lin Quanzhu smiled.
"Thank you so much, Consul!”Zhang Yuting was overjoyed.
The Japanese only sent out six independent railway guards, 6,000 soldiers didn't seem like a lot. But Zhang Yuting was already very satisfied. He knew how strong the Japanese were.
To put it bluntly, even though he had close to 50,000 soldiers under him, it would be extremely difficult for him to defeat these six Japanese soldiers.
Thus, Zhang Yuting believed that after the Japanese joined the attack, there was no doubt that Feng Linge would be defeated.
"General Zhang, there is no time to lose. Let's act immediately!”Lin Quanzhu urged.
Zhang Yuting nodded." Consul, I've already asked around. Zhang Xiluan will leave for Yanjing in three days." I will order the troops to gather in advance. After Zhang Xiluan left, they would immediately attack!”Zhang Yuting's eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
Zhang Yuting had already made up his mind. No one could stop him.
Lin Quanzhu had no objections.
That night, Zhang Yuting gathered a group of trusted generals and issued a battle deployment.
"Brothers, Feng Linge has gone too far. He knew that I was determined to get the position of Fengtian Warlord. However, he did not expect that he would actually snatch food from the tiger's mouth, completely disregarding his brotherhood. Since that's the case, I won't treat him as a brother anymore. I've decided to fight him and defeat him, then take the position of Fengtian Military Governor!”Zhang Yuting looked at everyone and said.
"Old Seven, I support you!" Zhang Xuwu was the first to express his support.
The others also expressed their opinions.
"Brothers, even though Feng Linge has been expanding his army in a frenzy, how much combat power can the hastily expanded army have? We will definitely win this battle! In addition, I have good news for everyone. The East Ocean Empire will fully support us. They will send over 6,000 men to assist us in our attack. Therefore, we will definitely win this battle!”Zhang Yuting did not hide the fact that he had colluded with the Japanese.
As expected, when the trusted generals heard this news, most of them were pleasantly surprised. Only a few people had some misgivings.
In the eyes of these generals, the Japanese were invincible. If the Japanese were to send troops to support Zhang Yuting, would they still be able to lose this battle?
Immediately, Zhang Yuting mobilized the troops. The main forces left their own defense zone and pressed towards Feng Linge's defense zone. It was as if they were going to uproot Feng Linge's power in one fell swoop.
