At nine o'clock sharp, Yang Xingcheng walked to the microphone in the middle of the hall under everyone's gaze.
"Everyone, let me introduce myself first. My name is Yang Xingcheng, and I'm currently the chief of the Beiyang General Staff.”Yang Xingcheng looked around at everyone present and said in a deep voice.
No one expected that this time, it would be the chief of the Beiyang General Staff, the Beiyang big shot with the rank of major general.
It should be known that even in the past, when they held a more important press conference, the General Staff Headquarters would only send a Lieutenant Colonel.
Was it really as they thought? Beiyang is declaring war on Lu Guang?
For a time, everyone was discussing animatedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding Northern Guards pulled their guns and took a step forward. Their expressions were cold, as if they were going to attack in the next second.
Although there was a hint of threat in Yang Xingcheng's words, the entire venue fell silent.
"Everyone, this time, Beiyang has gathered everyone here to make an announcement. At the time of the press conference, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs had already submitted our credentials to the various consular offices.”
"President Yuan personally appointed Lu Guang not long ago," said Yang Xingcheng in a deep voice. Lu Guang was young, but he had made great achievements and was worthy of praise. That was why President Yuan chose to make an exception and promote him. This was also an encouragement to the young people of the current generation. The future of the country belonged to the young people.”
"However, Beiyang never thought that Lu Guang would change the title of the four provinces alliance army and establish a Protector Army without authorization. This not only defied President Yuan's appointment, but also went against Beiyang's will to maintain stability.”
"Regarding Lu Guang's actions, Beiyang will definitely not support it. Under the orders of President Yuan, the alliance of the four provinces in the southwest will be revoked. Lu Guang will be removed from his position as the Commander-in-Chief of the four provinces alliance, Cai E will be removed from his position as the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the four provinces alliance, and Lu Rongting will be removed from his position as the Chief of Staff of the four provinces alliance.”
Yang Xingcheng's voice reverberated throughout the entire venue, shocking everyone.
It seemed that this was just as they had expected. Beiyang was going to make a move against Luguang and the four southwestern provinces.
"The Beiyang Army will not rule out the possibility of sending troops to Luguang and the four southwestern provinces. A country cannot have two different armies and cannot have two rulers. Beiyang has always been committed to maintaining peace and stability in the country. This time, Lu Guang has stirred up trouble. Beiyang will brazenly act and resolutely resist such behavior.”
"My Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made a statement to the foreign consular offices. On the day our Northern Army goes to war, you are not allowed to participate in any of the other countries. Beiyang actively protects the interests of all countries in China and provides a stable place for the development of all countries in China.”
"In addition, Beiyang requests military assistance from various countries, including but not limited to weapons and ammunition.”
Yang Xingcheng's words made everyone's hearts tremble.
Beiyang was already determined to fight Lu Guang, and they actually submitted their credentials to the various countries 'consular offices.
One had to know that the threats to the development of the Tang Empire had always been these powerful countries. Their division of the Tang Empire had caused the people of the Tang Empire to suffer and lose many resources.
In this way, even if the various countries did not provide aid to Beiyang, they would definitely not secretly support Lu Guang.
After Yang Xingcheng finished speaking, it was time for the reporters to ask questions.
Everyone was immersed in Yang Xingcheng's words just now. Their hearts were already shocked and they did not react for a moment.
"Dear reporters, if you have any questions, please ask. I'll take half an hour to resolve your doubts.”Yang Xingcheng looked around at everyone present and said in a deep voice.
The next second, a young female reporter asked,"Chief Yang, does this press conference mean that Beiyang is about to declare war on Lu Guang?”
Yang Xingcheng did not speak, but nodded firmly. This was self-evident.
"Chief Yang, did Beiyang sell their interests to the other countries for military assistance?”A male reporter said in a deep voice. This was the question that everyone wanted to ask but did not dare to ask.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Yang Xingcheng.
Yang Xingcheng's expression was slightly unnatural as he opened his mouth slightly.
