Zhang Zizhong could not help but frown. In fact, he had also guessed Zhang Yuanqing's intention. After all, Zhang Yuanqing's actions during this period of time were obvious to all.
However, when Zhang Yuanqing said this, Zhang Zizhong still felt a little surprised.
Zhang Zizhong pondered for a moment and said,""Young Marshal, you might not know much about the situation in Jinmen. There are four countries renting land in Jinmen.”
"Other than the Japanese, there are also concessions from countries such as Eagle, Fayi, and so on. The current Eagle Leased Territory is a merger of the former Eagle and American Leased Territories, so it also involves the interests of the Americans.”
"It can be said that the various forces are complicated. If your army enters Tianjin, it will definitely affect the interests of the various countries.”
"To be honest, it's not just the Wei Nation. The other countries have also requested that we not allow you to enter Tianjin.”
"These foreigners are also worried that the war will affect their interests.”
"I only know that as long as we don't get rid of the Japanese pirates in Tianjin, they will become a future threat." Zhang Yuanqing sneered.”
"Now that the Japanese are sending reinforcements to North China, an all-out war is inevitable. Under such circumstances, if we don't make the first move and seize the opportunity, we will wait for the Japanese reinforcements to arrive.”
"We won't be able to protect Tianjin? At that time, the Japanese in the rented land and the Japanese outside would work together from the inside. How would the general ensure the safety of Tianjin?”
Zhang Zizhong frowned and said," Don't be agitated, Major. I know this too. However, in my position, we have to consider the overall situation."”
"Because the young marshal has been fighting with the Japanese many times, the situation has escalated. Jinling is already quite dissatisfied with this and has repeatedly issued strict orders to prevent the situation from expanding further.”
"He even ordered the 29th division to restrict the young commander's new troops from taking any further military action to prevent you from having a bigger conflict with the Japanese.”
"So, if we let the young marshal's troops enter Tianjin, we won't be able to explain to Jinling.”
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He frowned and said,""So General Zhang is just waiting to hand Tianjin over to the Japanese?”
" Why do you say that, Major?" Zhang Zizhong quickly said." If the Japanese attack, Zizhong will definitely lead his troops to fight a bloody battle to protect Tianjin."”
"If the enemy forces attack on a large scale, how will you defend Tianjin?" Zhang Yuanqing said excitedly.”
"General Zhang only thinks about how to explain to Jinling. Did he not think about how to explain to the people of Tianjin?”
"Don't you think about how to explain to the people of the country?”
"The Japanese are determined to kill us, so we can't give them any chance to do so. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
"General, if you really care about China and the people, you should let our troops enter Tianjin and eliminate the Japanese pirates there.”
"If anything happens, I will take full responsibility. General, you don't have to take any responsibility.”
Zhang Zizhong was silent for a moment, then said,""Men, pass down the order. The troops in the west and north of the city will immediately head to the south of the city for a military exercise.”
"As for the troops in the city, move to the south of the city, occupy the favorable terrain, build barricades, and wait for further orders.”
"Yes, sir!"
An officer beside him quickly responded and turned around to convey the order.
Zhang Zizhong's order was equivalent to withdrawing all the troops in the west and north of the city. This way, Zhang Yuanqing's troops could enter the city directly from these two directions.
"Thank you, General Zhang." Zhang Yuanqing quickly stood up and said.”
Zhang Zizhong smiled and said," You're too polite, Major. But I won't keep you here today. Besides, you've never been here before, and I've never seen you before."”
"Haha!"
Zhang Yuanqing laughed and said," That's right. General Zhang didn't know that our army had entered the city. This can only be said to be a coincidence."”
……
Then, Zhang Yuanqing quietly left Zhang Zizhong's headquarters through the back door.
At the same time, two guards were attacked as they drove away from General Zhang's headquarters.
Zhang Yuanqing was escorted by Li Long and the others to the Xicheng District.
That evening, the 38th Division began to retreat south of the city.
At the same time, two new troops entered Jinmen City from the north and west of the city.
Zhang Yuanqing had obtained these troops from the lottery yesterday. Adding on the troops he had obtained from signing in today, there were a total of more than 4,000 people.
Zhang Yuanqing had not summoned these troops before.
He only summoned it after he arrived in Tianjin.
In fact, no one could stop Zhang Yuanqing from entering Tianjin.
As long as Zhang Yuanqing arrived in Tianjin, he could summon his troops there.
The reason why Zhang Yuanqing greeted Zhang Zizhong was to avoid some unnecessary trouble and prevent conflict with Zhang Zizhong's army.
Moreover, this could also deceive others!
Please urge me to change it.
