Jinling City Government and the Japanese Kwantung Army's Reaction!
The Fengtian News Agency reported to the entire country that Zhang Zuolin's second son, Zhang Xuemin, had officially taken over the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Three Eastern Provinces 'Security. He announced that Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai had been killed on the spot for plotting a rebellion!
At the same time, the first decree signed by Zhang Xuemin after he became the commander-in-chief of the security of the three eastern provinces was announced. The agricultural tax and commercial tax were halved respectively. The four provincial governments jointly funded 5 million yuan to open steel, chemical, textile, and other factories to recruit workers, increase the gross domestic product, and increase the customs duties of Japanese and Russian products!
These announcements immediately caused discussions among the people of Northeast China and even the entire country!
"Zhang Xuemin became the commander-in-chief…This is too strange. I thought it would be either Zhang Zuoxiang or Yang Yuting…"
"Didn't you see what was written on the notice? Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai were executed!”
"Second Young Master is really ruthless!"
"I don't care who will be the commander-in-chief. It has nothing to do with me anyway. I only care if the agricultural tax and commercial tax halved written on it is true.”
"That's right. Really? Also, the four provincial governments invested 5 million yuan to set up factories. Was there such a good thing?”
"It should be true. The notice has already been released!”
"If that's the case, that's great. We finally have a commander-in-chief who cares about the people's livelihood!”
"Yeah, the northeast is saved!"
……
Jin Ling city government, chairman's office!
Dressed in military uniform, the principal sat at the dining table and ate breakfast. At the same time, he looked at the newspaper of the Xinhua Agency on the table. The headline was the news of Zhang Xuemin becoming the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security. Sitting opposite him was the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the National Government and the Secretary General of the General Office of the Government, Zhang Kuang!
"Zhang Kuang, what do you think of the new commander of security in the northeast?”The principal was drinking porridge and speaking with a strong Zhejiang accent. He turned to look at the secretary-general opposite him!
Together with Feng Yuxiang, Yan Laoxi, and Li Zongren, they formed the Northern Expedition Army to support Zhang Zuolin, reorganize the national government, and implement the rule of "governing the country by the party". If they could recruit them to the northeast, the principal could at least achieve nominal unification!
Therefore, he was very concerned about the appointment of the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security!
" Zhang Xuemin was just a 20-year-old kid. I'm surprised that he could defeat Yang Yuting, Zhang Zuoxiang, and the rest of the old men in the Feng army and take the position of the Commander-in-Chief of Security. It would be better if it were his brother, Zhang Xueliang. Most importantly, this kid dared to execute Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai on the spot. He's just a newborn calf that's not afraid of tigers. As for the laws he issued, they can be treated as a joke. It's impossible to implement them!”Zhang Kuang said with a smile, his lips curling in disdain!
The government agencies were huge and messy, and the interests involved were even more complicated. It was not easy to implement tax cuts alone, let alone the four provincial governments taking out 5 million yuan to open factories!
Thus, Zhang Kuang naturally thought that this was just a decree that Zhang Xuemin had casually issued to gain a good reputation!
The principal slowly shook his head and put down the bowl of porridge in his hand. Then, he said,"I don't think so. Regardless of whether the tax reduction and factory opening laws can be implemented or not, just the fact that he can issue them shows that this Zhang Xuemin is different from his father. He's not a warlord who only cares about his own territory. As long as he's not a warlord, he'll at least have some ethnic sentiments.”
"Chairman, do you mean that you want to fight for the Northeast to change its banner? Will this work?"
"We have to try. What if we succeed?”The principal narrowed his eyes and said," The situation in the northeast is very dangerous. It could be eaten by the Japanese at any time. Zhang Xuemin has a grudge against the Dongyang Kingdom's Guandong Army. Under such circumstances, he can only choose to be close to Jin Ling City!"”
Zhang Kuang was stunned for a moment, then slowly nodded. He realized that the principal was telling the truth!
"How about this, as the representative of the Jin Ling city government, you go to the northeast to negotiate with Zhang Xuemin. If he is willing to change sides, the Jin Ling city government can make some concessions!”The principal said in a deep voice!
"Yes, chairman!"
……
Dongyang Kingdom's Guandong Army Headquarters!
After the former commander of the Kwantung Army, Muraoka Nakuro, and the senior staff officer of the Kwantung Army, Kawamoto Ichisaku, conspired to kill Zhang Zuolin at Huanggutun Station, they were suspended by Prime Minister Tanaka Heiichi of the Dongyang Kingdom and ordered to succeed Tian Yingtaro as the commander of the Kwantung Army!
"Yo, the chief commander of the security forces in the three eastern provinces has been decided. Zhang Zuolin's second son, Zhang Xuemin, will take over!”Tian Ying Taro narrowed his eyes and said!
The explosion of Zhang Zuolin at Huanggutun Station triggered dissatisfaction and protests from the United Kingdom, the United States, and other countries. As a result, the former commander of the Kwantung Army, Muraoka Nakuro, was suspended. As the successor commander, Tian Yingtaro was not prepared to directly take tough measures against the Northeast!
Senior Chief of Staff Mitsuharu Tanaka lowered his head and asked,""Commander, what are you going to do?”
"Send the Consul General to Fengtian Residence in the name of mourning Zhang Zuolin. Find out about this Young Master Zhang's style and win him over!”
"Ha Yi!"
