1917, March 4th, at 7:52 pm in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, the Quzhou 34 Incident broke out. The Japanese, a subsidiary of the Mitsui Conglomerate, blew up the No. 3 track of the Quzhou railway with an ulterior motive, 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 union 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 in China had a military conflict with a Japanese security team stationed 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 appeared on the surface. Her father's judgment this time was truly extremely vicious.
However, for Lin Huiyin, who had seen the enlightened 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 met 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 next to her teased and snatched the newspaper from Lin Huiyin's hands.
"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's 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 international concession.
As one of the major powers, although the Japanese did not carve out an area in Shanghai as an independent concession, they still secretly developed an advantageous area that belonged to them!
The Japanese right-winger, Kawabata Yuichi, was the Japanese military intelligence liaison in the Southeast region. He was 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 Japanese Empire. However, the Quzhou No. 3 - 4 Incident this time has completely cut off the intelligence network of the Quzhou railway station that the empire has been painstakingly working 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 immediately negotiated with the M Nation. In the end, the result of the negotiation was that the Japanese's Mitsui Conglomerate compensated Johnny Ford with 500,000 US dollars, which was two million yen. In addition, the Japanese expressed their 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 Chinese. The goal is to expel the Empire's forces from Quzhou. This young military leader has pulled the Americans into this, and that's 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!!”
The Japanese Army's superstar, Okamura Yasuji, was sent to China by the Japanese Army. His military capabilities had been recognized!
"Chu Tianyun, the highest ranking officer of the Quzhou autonomous union. 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 of Huaxia will be a very difficult opponent to deal with!”
"Report this matter to the Empire. Also, try your best to compromise with the consortium. It's not time for the Empire to start a war with China yet!”
Chu Tianyun had led the Japanese to recognize the power of Quzhou early on, but he had successfully gotten rid of the Japanese's intelligence work 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 Chinese people to recognize the evil intentions of the Yamato people. It was inevitable that this was the root of the nation. They were always willing to believe that people were not that bad.
