At six o'clock on the evening of September 20th, the Fengtian Garrison Command sent a message to the whole country." The Japanese invaders invaded the border on a large scale and intended to destroy China. Our Northeast soldiers were unwilling to be manipulated by others. Under the leadership of Fengtian Garrison Commander Feng Yong, they resolutely fought against the Japanese invaders. On the night of the 18th, they annihilated the enemy's 29th regiment and defeated the main force of the Japanese Second Division. Only Fengtian survived. We will not let the Japanese invaders advance any further! This order is to the 400 million compatriots in the country!"
As soon as the telegram was released, China was shaken and the world was famous. Tens of millions of people in the country were indignant at the incompetence of the authorities. Student movements continued in Nanjing, Peiping, Tianjin, and Shanghai. Warlords from all over the country sent a message to the Nanjing government to support the Northeast War of Resistance.
The envoys of the United Kingdom, France, and the United States gathered outside the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, criticizing Japan for attacking China.
........
"Motherf * cker, what is Zhang Hanqing doing? The 300,000 soldiers of the Northeast Army did not even fire a shot, and the Japanese had already reached Fengtian City!”
In the office of the chairman of the Nanjing government, Old Jiang, who was wearing a long cloth coat, slammed the table and cursed loudly. The scattered cables on the table were the messages issued by the Fengtian Garrison Command to Japan. Opposite him, Dai Li, the director of the communications department of the chairman's office, and Chen Blei, the secretary of the National Party's Central Party Department, did not dare to speak.
"And this Feng Yong, what does he mean? Unwilling to be manipulated by others, is this person worthy of me?”Old Jiang said angrily to Dai Li in Zhejiang Mandarin,"Rain Farmer! Why was it that the communication center did not find any clues about such a big piece of news? And this Feng Yong, he could actually predict the Japanese's actions in advance and make an ambush deployment. Who was supporting him from behind?”
Although he had become the political leader of China on the surface, Old Jiang knew very well that he could only control less than half of China. The warlords were deeply rooted in various places, and the Red Party was a huge threat. Therefore, he did not hesitate to trick Zhang Xueliang into changing his flag and leading the Northeast Army into the pass to help the emperor.
They thought that they could use the 300,000-strong Northeast Army to pin down Yan Xishan, Li Zongren, Feng Yuxiang, and the others, but they did not expect such a thing to happen. The Japanese actually dared to attack the Northeast. It was simply unbelievable!
"Chairman! According to the information we have gathered, the Japanese have no intention of attacking the northeast. The Mukden incident was completely the decision of the Kwantung Army Commander Honzhuang Shigeru and Chief of Staff Ishihara An.”
Dai Li immediately reported," When the Japanese army began to attack, the 7th Brigade of the Fengtian North Camp had already sent a message to Zhang Hanqing. However, he was addicted to Peking opera, so he resolutely carried out the 'non-resistance order' without understanding the situation. This led to the retreat of the Fengtian garrison without fighting, and the Japanese Kwantung Army took over the South Manchurian railway without any effort.”
He knew very well that the current deteriorating situation in the northeast was entirely due to the order to not resist. However, Dai Li had no choice but to absolve Zhang Xueliang of this because this order had been given by a certain person, and it could not be wrong.
At this time, the National Party's Secretary General Chen Blei also said,""Chairman! I feel that the crux of the northeast problem lies with Feng Yong, Zhang Hanqing's sworn brother. Previously, he had withdrawn from the army. Although he had flown a plane to support Zhang Shao Shuai many times, those were all personal actions.”"What was unexpected was that on the day of September 18th, he actually prepared an ambush the moment before the Japanese attacked. He took over the 7th Brigade and wiped out the 29th Regiment of the Japanese Army! All kinds of signs showed that this person was unfathomable.”
"More importantly, Feng Yong's identity. His father, Old General Feng Delin, was a veteran general of the northeast and an old man of the Feng family. If it wasn't for the fact that he had made a mistake in his chess piece back then, the current Northeast Marshal would not be Zhang Hanqing.”
The current situation in Fengtian was in a stalemate. The Japanese and the Fengs were fighting fiercely. There might be some coincidences, but it was more of a human factor. As the leader of the National Party, Wen Dan, and the CEO's think tank, Chen Blei saw the core of the problem at the first moment.
Moreover, from the beginning of the war on September 18th, taking over the Northeast Army's forces in Fengtian, establishing the Fengtian Garrison Command, all the way to the entire country, every step was connected too closely. One could not help but wonder if someone had deliberately arranged this.
When Old Jiang, who was anxious, heard this, he slowly sat down on the chair and said meaningfully,"Zhang Hanqing is a pure young master, so he does things more emotionally than rationally. This is also why he abandoned Zhang Zuolin's policy and listened to the government's opinions instead.”
"Although I was a little inappropriate in this matter, I have protected the northeast for the country and the people for many years.”
"Chairman, do you mean to commend Zhang Hanqing and his Northeast Army and urge them to march into the northeast and recover their territory?”Chen Bulei asked carefully.
"Yes! We can't be stingy to those who have made contributions!”Old Jiang took a sip of tea, his eyes shining with a special light. He said meaningfully,"The northeast is something his father left him. If they were to lose it so easily, Zhang Hanqing's family would not let him go. In order to ensure the country's territorial integrity, the government should give appropriate support.”
Chen Bulei nodded thoughtfully. He had to admit that few people in the world could compare to Old Jiang's political methods.
"As for Fengtian, the people are very patriotic. This is a good thing, and we should support it. How about this, the office drafts a letter of appointment and appoints Feng Yong as the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Militia.”Old Jiang said calmly.
"Yes, sir!"
........
At the same time, in the Japanese Prime Minister's residence.
"Baga Yalu! These idiots from the Ministry of Land Affairs, don't they know that attacking China at this time will cause the dissatisfaction of the United States and the United Kingdom? At that time, it would be an immeasurable blow to the reputation of our Great Japan Empire in the international arena.”Prime Minister Wakatsuki Reijiro said angrily.
"Prime Minister! At present, the envoys of the United Kingdom, France, the United States, and the Soviet Union have all sent warnings. The Soviet Union has also clearly stated that if we do not stop our actions in Northeast China, their Far East Army Corps will take measures!”Anda reported humbly.
After hearing this, Wakatsuki Reijiro frowned even more. After he took over the heavy responsibility of the prefectural Kenyu Association, he originally wanted to bring Japan out of its current economic predicament. However, such a big thing had happened. It was simply a disaster.
He could only helplessly say," The actions of the Kwantung Army in the northeast have already affected our country's diplomatic environment. This matter needs to be handed over to His Majesty the Emperor."”
"Alright! I'll immediately submit a report to His Majesty the Emperor!”Anda Kian replied.
