On March 4th, 1917, at 7:52 pm in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, the Quzhou 34th Incident broke out. The Quzhou railway management department under the Japanese country's Mitsui Conglomerate blew up the No. 3 track of the Quzhou railway with unspeakable purposes, causing a coal delivery train from Quzhou to Shanghai to leave the track at night, causing a loss of 80,000 silver dollars!
At the same time, the 1st Brigade Infantry Regiment of the Southeast Renaissance Army under the jurisdiction of the Quzhou autonomous coalition government had a military conflict with the Japanese security team stationed at the Quzhou railway station. Both sides suffered heavy casualties.
On the morning of March 7th, the headline of Shanghai's Shen Bao was about the March 4th incident in Quzhou. A local warlord from the Tang Dynasty had a military conflict with a security team from an island country in China.
The original Chu Tianyun was only famous in Zhejiang!
However, Chu Tianyun's name had been exposed to the public throughout the country through the incident. This time, he had become completely famous!
Peihua Girls 'High School was a church school founded by the British. Of course, those who could afford to go to school in this era were either rich or noble. Therefore, the students in the girls' high school were mostly rich girls from well-to-do families.
"Huiyin, come and take a look. There's news about Prince Charming again!”
As it was March, her clothes were quite thick. However, a tall girl not far away still showed off her graceful figure.
She wore a light pink woolen coat on her upper body and thick stockings on her lower body. They were all clothes from the West. It was not surprising in a big city like Shanghai.
Wasn't this girl Lin Huiyin?
Behind him, a slightly plump girl jogged over with this morning's Shen Bao in her hand. Her face was already covered in sweat.
"Huiyin, look, isn't this photo awesome?”
In the photo, Chu Tianyun was wearing a military uniform. He had a straight and strong body, his head held high and his chest puffed out. The box cannon at his waist was even more ferocious.
At the bottom of the photo was a row of large words.
" The Quzhou Revival Army and the Japanese security team engaged in a military conflict and successfully crushed the evil ambitions of the Japanese. The Quzhou warlord Chu Tianyun rose to power and shocked the Southeast!!!”
Lin Huiyin's heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. Her father's judgment this time was really extremely vicious.
However, for Lin Huiyin, who had seen Chu Tianyun before, this photo was a little blurry.
"He even said that he came to Shanghai to see me. I didn't expect him to be a big liar!”
However, Lin Huiyin was criticizing Chu Tianyun in her heart. She had an unclear feeling about Chu Tianyun. She had only interacted with him once, but after so many days, she kept finding news about him in the newspapers, even if it was just the name Chu Tianyun.
"What's wrong? Is our talented lady also tempted this time?”
The girl beside her teased and snatched the newspaper from Lin Huiyin's hand.
"He Yangmei, I'm not done with you. Stop right there!”
………………
On the other side, the Shanghai Nagano textile factory was also one of the Japanese forces in Shanghai. The Nagano textile factory was close to several universities in Shanghai and was located in the central area of Shanghai. It was also bordered by the French concession and the public concession.
As one of the major powers, although Japan did not set aside an area in Shanghai as an independent concession, it still secretly developed its own advantageous area!
The right-wing Japanese, Kawabata Yuichi, was the military intelligence liaison for the Japanese army in the Southeast region. He was also a cover-up tool for the Nagano textile factory.
In fact, the Japanese army headquarters had secretly mobilized two infantry squadrons into Shanghai, with a total of about 400 people!
The purpose was to continue expanding the intelligence and spying work in China. The other purpose was to deal with some military operations. A few days ago, the infantry squadron suppressed the workers 'riot in the Nagano textile factory.
"Mr. Kikuchi Maru sacrificed himself for the Emperor in this military conflict. Let us toast to him!”
" Hey, Mr. Kikuchi Maru is a rare spy talent of the Imperium. It's just that the incident in Quzhou has completely cut off the intelligence network of the Quzhou railway station that the Imperium has been working hard on for two years!”
Kawabata Yuichi gripped his wine glass tightly. Then, when his gaze swept across Shen Bao, he smashed his wine glass.
Clang!
"Baka! Chu Tianyun is dead!"
The Japanese ambassador to China, Tanaka Kakumatsu, received a warning from the American embassy in the morning, as well as a report on the compensation for the losses of the Ford family!
The Ford family was not a small family in the United States. They had some influence in the political situation of the United States. Therefore, when the news reached the Japanese embassy in China, the Japanese side immediately negotiated with the M Nation. The final result of the negotiation was that the Japanese side would compensate Johnny Ford with 500,000 US dollars, which was two million yen. In addition, the Japanese side expressed deep regret and lowered their stance.
However, financial compensation was secondary. The most important thing was that Quzhou Train Station had a large amount of intelligence information collected by Kikuchi Maru last year. This happened before they could move it.
"Mr. Kawabata, the military suspects that this is a game directed and played by the Japanese. The purpose is to expel the Empire's forces from Quzhou. This young military leader has pulled the Americans into this, and that is the truth!”
"However, there is one thing that can be admitted. The soldiers of the Empire have a combat quality that is several times better than the Chinese!!”
Japan's army superstar, Okamura Yasuji, was sent to Japan by the Japanese Army Department. His military ability had been recognized!
"Chu Tianyun, the highest officer of the Quzhou autonomous coalition government. Perhaps, this person will become the greatest obstacle to the Empire's invasion of the southeast coast of China!”
"Mr. Kawabata, I hope to resume the intelligence gathering work in Quzhou. This young warlord will be a very difficult opponent to deal with!”
"Report this matter to the Empire. Also, try to compromise with the consortium. It's not time for the Empire to start a war with the Turks yet!”
Chu Tianyun's 3rd and 4th Incident had allowed the Japanese to recognize the power of Quzhou prematurely. However, they had successfully expelled the intelligence work of the Japanese in Quzhou. This made Chu Tianyun feel that he had made a profit.
Quzhou, which had obtained the right to operate the Quzhou railway, would have an even faster industrial development.
This incident did not allow the people of the Tang Dynasty to recognize the evil intentions of the Yamato people. There was no way that this was the root of the nation. They were always willing to believe that people were not so bad.
(Shameless, tickets!)
