Even though Zheng Enxin was telling the truth, Qi Jiuying did not believe him at all. The former knew that it was useless even if he talked his way out of it. Forget it, a basic trust was required for a conversation, cooperation, and negotiation. Zheng Enxin knew that since he and Qi Jiuying did not even have this, then their subsequent conversation would only waste their breath. It would be fine if they did not say anything, but if they said too much, it would only delay things and cause even greater misunderstandings!
"Commander Qi, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave with my men. Please forgive me, Commander Qi!”Zheng Enxin said apologetically to Qi Jiuying with cupped fists.
Zheng Enxin's thoughts were exactly the same as Qi Jiuying's. Basically, there was no difference. It was useless, useless, tasteless to eat, and tasteless to discard. Anyway, he and Zheng Enxin were not from the same world, and it was impossible for them to cooperate this time. If Zheng Enxin wanted to leave early, then he would just ask him to leave early.
Thus, Qi Jiuying said in a lukewarm tone,""Master Zheng, please forgive me for not seeing you off. Farewell!”
Qi Jiuying had agreed to Zheng Enxin's departure, and Zheng Enxin did not stand on ceremony. He immediately brought his subordinate, Xiao Zhen, and left the place. Just like that, the last faction that accompanied Qi Jiuying also left the place, leaving the former alone in the entire pavilion.
Clearly, Qi Jiuying had hidden some words in his heart that he did not say to Zheng Enxin. That was because the former was looking at Zheng Enxin's back as he left and muttered,""It seems that Shi Houlin's deduction is correct. Zheng Enxin has really become a traitor and a lackey of the Soviet Union!”
Why did General Shi Houlin agree?？In fact, this General Shi Houlin was not some other god. He was a high-ranking general of the Russian White Army who was exiled to China. He was currently a division commander under Qi Jiuying, leading a division of more than 10,000 soldiers!
The Soviet Union's civil war was a war between the Soviet Union and its counter-revolutionary forces and foreign armed interference from 1918 to 1920. It was also known as the Soviet Union's civil war or the war against the Soviet Union. It was a war that took place in the collapsed Russian Empire from 1918 to 1922. Some of the war also spread to Mongolia and Persia.
The Soviet Union's civil war and foreign armed intervention lasted for nearly three years, ending with the failure of the domestic and foreign counter-revolutionary forces. The result of the war was that the Red Army defeated all the opposing forces in the territory. The Soviet Union was founded in 1922. However, similar to the civil wars of other countries, the White Army of Russia, who was not willing to lose and was ready to "anti-Soviet restoration" at any time, was not completely destroyed. They fled everywhere. Not only did they stay in the territory of the Soviet Union, but they were also ready to restore the country at any time. They also fled to many places overseas, such as Outer Mongolia, China's Xinjiang, Northeast Inner Mongolia, and other places.
Shi Houlin was one of these people. He was originally a brave warrior in the White Army of Russia. He had made many military achievements for the Russian Empire. He had made remarkable contributions and was famous. However, the rotten Russian Empire could not escape the fate of revolution and was overthrown. Shi Houlin, who survived the war, refused to surrender to the Soviet Union and was still loyal to Russia. He was forced to come to the northeast of China and was incorporated by Zhang Zuolin. He became a member of the imperial army. Working for some Chinese people.
The reason Qi Jiuying had called Zheng Enxin over for today's negotiation was because Shi Houlin had reminded Qi Jiuying that Zheng Enxin of Meteor Mountain was very close to foreigners from all sides. He had the " smell " of a traitor who was relying on foreigners. For this reason, Shi Houlin had specially instructed Qi Jiuying to invite Zheng Enxin to participate in today's negotiation. This way, he would definitely be able to help the Feng Army of the Celestial Dynasty see clearly whether Zheng Enxin was a good cop or a bad cop!
Shi Houlin's loyalty to the Russian Empire was unparalleled. He would never regret it even if the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled. While the former was living under someone else's roof, he still did not forget the great cause of restoring the country. In China, Shi Houlin trained his troops, recuperated, hid his strength, and obeyed the orders of the warlords. At the same time, Shi Houlin attached great importance to winning over allies and tried his best to implement the policy of "forming cliques". He tried his best to pull the forces that could be contacted in the northeast of China into his camp.
There were countless different groups and armed organizations in China, such as bandits, triads, and sects.
Of course, Shi Houlin was definitely a powerful figure. He knew that he and his brothers were under the command of the Feng Army of the Celestial Dynasty. If he blindly did things that benefited him and neglected to serve the people of the Feng Army of the Celestial Dynasty, Zhang Zuolin and the others would betray him sooner or later or kick them out!
Therefore, what Shi Houlin did was to serve his own White Army. On the other hand, he also wanted to use his hard work to help the people of the Chinese dynasty, like Zhang Zuolin, who had done two-faced things during the Russo-Japanese War.
Shi Houlin had learned from the Japanese and Russians 'policy of recruiting bandits during the Russo-Japanese War. It was one of the most important ways and methods to recruit bandits to expand their armed forces. Naturally, Shi Houlin had a detailed understanding of the information on the bandits in the northeast of China.
Zheng Enxin was the second largest bandit in the northeast of China and ranked in the top three on the ranking list of bandits in the northeast of China. It was reasonable for Shi Houlin not to know the mystery of Zheng Enxin's team. What was more, if Zheng Enxin did anything, it would not escape Shi Houlin's sight!
The tea cooled when the person left. Since all the people who were negotiating with Qi Jiuying had left the pavilion, Qi Jiuying was alone in the pavilion. Qi Jiuying's nerves were fine and there was absolutely nothing wrong with him. Of course, he would not negotiate with himself or the ghosts and deities. Therefore, after Qi Jiuying finished thinking about some problems in his mind, he was the last to leave the pavilion and return to Fengtian!
In 1911, due to the fall of the Qing Dynasty in the 1911 Revolution, Shen Yang gradually developed into the center of the warlords led by Zhang Zuolin. In 1923, Zhang Zuolin officially established the Fengtian Municipal Public Office as the beginning of the establishment of Shenyang City. In the 1920s, the commercial area of Shen Yang developed in large areas. More than ten Chinese and foreign newspapers spoke for different interest groups. In a Japanese movie, it could be seen that the newspapers in Japan began to discuss the "New Manchurian Phenomenon" at length. They discussed why Tokyo's urban construction was not as good as that of Shengyang. It could be seen that the scale of urban construction in Shengyang at that time. When Guo Moruo got off at the train station, the bustling streets and Japanese shops made him think that he had arrived in Japan.
In any country, there was a phenomenon where a large number of locals and foreigners gathered in a developed city. As one of the largest and most developed cities in the northeast of China, it was difficult for Fengtian to escape this fate. In Fengtian, not only were there a large number of Chinese people, but there were also many foreigners gathered here. Among them, Russians, Japanese, and North Koreans were the most numerous.
All the people who had participated in the negotiations today had come on foot. Qi Jiuying was walking back to Fengtian while thinking about how he should resolve the threat of Japan and the Soviet Union joining forces against Fengtian. Qi Jiuying knew very well that if he could resolve this crisis outstandingly, then he would be entrusted with important tasks by the marshal and the young marshal. On the other hand, if he could not resolve the threat of Japan and the Soviet Union, he would lose his official position at the very least, and he would definitely die at the very worst!
Getting promoted and getting rich was not important, but national security was important. Qi Jiuying, who held this belief, was actually very clear about the situation of both the enemy and himself. Due to geographical relations, China's northeast was bordered by the Soviet Union and Japan. The actual power holder of the warlords in China, Zhang Zuolin, had an unclear relationship with the Soviet Union and the Japanese. Under the premise that politics itself was repetitive, Zhang Zuolin sometimes relied on the Soviet Union and sometimes relied on Japan. At times, he resisted the Soviet Union and the Japanese. The complexity inside was beyond words!
The Northern Warlord Feng Jun had about 350,000 soldiers, with the army, navy, and air force. Although Zhang Zuolin's territory was not the whole of China, and in China, he was only a "King of Manmeng", he definitely did not control the whole country. However, it was absolutely feasible to describe the situation of the Feng Jun as "insufficient to attack but sufficient to defend". However, Qi Jiuying was worried that the two parties, which were currently in a period of cooperation, had launched the Northern Expedition. The war situation was already very unfavorable for the various factions of the Northern Warlords. If the Feng army of the Celestial Empire started a war with the Soviet Union and Japan, it would be fine if it was just a small battle or a few battles. The Feng army could barely withstand it. However, if he did not handle it well and it exploded into a full-scale war, even a military blind person could guess that the Feng army would definitely lose!
The reason was simple. The current situation of the Northern Expedition, which was initiated by the Guomindang to unify China, was extremely favorable for them. It was extremely bad for all the Northern Warlords. The day when Shanghai fell to the Northern Expedition Army was just around the corner. It was also a matter of time before the Northern Expedition Army attacked the northeast of China. Looking at the overall situation of the war, it was impossible for the Feng Faction Warlords not to be eliminated!
Under such circumstances, it was already good enough that the Feng faction warlords did not seek help from foreigners. It was a wise choice to start a war with foreigners and become enemies with them. Besides, there were many "spineless" people in the Feng army. They were traitors and lackeys. They would probably do many things that were unfavorable to the Feng army before and after the war!
The battle scene was quite disadvantageous to the people of the Feng lineage. Qi Jiuying's head was instantly blown up, and he could not think of a good solution. Helpless, Qi Jiuying could only look up at the sky and sigh in boredom. He muttered to himself,"God, are we really going to kill the Feng Clan warlords this time?？!”
