[38] The Kwantung Army will always be a sucker, and all the soldiers of the Fengjun will be a scoundrel!
Yang Yuting and Wang Yongjiang looked at each other in surprise and then looked at Zhang Xueming.
"Marshal, please tell me!"
Zhang Xueming's eyes revealed a rare hint of playfulness as he pointed at Zhang Xiaoliu.
"Big brother, call back General Tomashevsky and say thank you for the information. This is the best opportunity in many years to recover the Middle East railway. The Middle East railway is of great significance to the Fengjun.”
Then, the topic changed.
"Unfortunately, the Fengs have suffered severe financial losses. They have the intention to send troops, but they have no food and pay to use.”
"The Feng army wants to coordinate with the northwest of White Russia and launch an attack at the same time. Otherwise, it will be difficult to win with just the Feng army alone.”
Zhang Xueming's words were similar to what Yang Yuting and Wang Yongjiang had said.
Zhang Xiaoliu nodded and quickly recorded.
Zhang Xueming pointed at Yang Yuting and said.
"Contact the commander of the Kwantung Army, Muraoka Cho Taro. Tell him that the Fengjun is preparing to go to war with the Soviets on the Middle East railway.”
Thump ~
In the conference hall, all the generals were stunned.
It was understandable to ask for money from the White Russians, but why did they ask for money from the Kwantung Army?
Pa ~
The first to react was Wang Yongjiang, who repeatedly said the word 'second'.
Wang Yongjiang's eyes were filled with admiration.
"Marshal, you're so awesome! Truly high! Even if this village, Oka, and Shoutarou were extremely reluctant, there would definitely be no problem if they took out half of their shares.”
Yang Yuting also understood.
"Since the Kwantung Army has planned to invade the three provinces, they must be eager for the war between the Fengjun and the Soviets.”
The two of them were filled with admiration. The marshal's strategy was too terrifying.
Han Linchun slapped his forehead and shouted.
"I get it, I get it. This way, not only can we paralyze the Soviets, we won't attack if the White Russians don't attack from the west. Once the two sides attack, the Soviets will be tired of mobilizing.”
"Everything is true. We can solve the problem of the Soviets in the north once and for all, and we can also numb the nerves of the Japanese.”
As he spoke, Han Linchun started counting with his fingers.
"This is one, two, three, four, five…Forget it, the marshal was really a divine foresight!”
Zhang Xueming waved his hand as he listened to the admiration of the moon.
This move was more than that.
There must always be a reason to stop the war with the Soviets. It could not be an all-out war.
And the White Russia would become the scapegoat for the end of the war.
The biggest enemy of the Feng army was the Japanese army. Zhang Xueming would never fight the Soviets to the death.
Otherwise, the Japanese would take advantage of the situation.
That was the real shooting oneself in the foot.
"Supervisor Wang will be in charge of the negotiations with the White Russians, General Yang will be in charge of the Kwantung Army, and Commander Han will be in charge of the military deployment.”
"Yes, sir!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
Zhang Xueming's eyes sparkled as he pointed at the map on the wall.
"Remember! The Middle East railway is of great importance. It is related to the great plan of Fengtian. No one can take it lightly, understand?”
Understood!
The meeting hall was solemn and filled with the idea of war!
The Feng Army under Zhang Xueming's rule had always been known for being swift and decisive.
When the power structure gradually took shape.
The burden on Zhang Xueming's shoulders had been greatly reduced. As long as he provided the general direction and policy, Yang Yuting, Wang Yongjiang, and the others would handle it properly.
This was the importance of talent.
May 20th.
Wang Yongjiang, the official supervisor of the three provinces, was the first to contact the White Russians as a diplomat.
Wang Yongjiang put forward two requirements for the Fengjun.
First, the military expenditure of the Feng army was insufficient, and he hoped that the White Russia could provide 10 million.
Second, when the Fengs were fighting the Soviets on the Middle East railway, the White Russian army would launch an attack on the west side at the same time.
Wang Yongjiang was in contact with the White Russian General Tomashevsky, who was passing on the information.
When Wang Yongjiang made his request, Tomashevsky was stunned.
Why?
The White Russians provided such valuable information out of goodwill, but they still have to pay for the troops?
After a series of verbal battles.
After receiving the instructions from the higher-ups, General Tomashevsky only agreed to the second condition, which was to attack the northwest at the same time as the Feng army.
However, Tomashevsky would not relent on the matter of funding the war.
According to the analysis of the White Russian Military Ministry.
The Fengjun would not be able to resist the temptation of the Middle East railway. The so-called hope of funding the war was nothing more than testing the attitude of the White Russians.
But the White Russian army would never have thought of this.
When Tomashevsky refused, Wang Yongjiang did not respond.
This gave the White Russians a big fright. If the Feng army really did not fall into the trap, then their series of preparations would have been in vain.
Tomashevsky initially agreed to invest five million yuan, but Wang Yongjiang firmly disagreed.
After many rounds of pulling and pulling,
The Russian representative Tomashevsky and the Fengjun representative Wang Yongjiang had reached an agreement. The Russian side's war funds of eight million dollars would be transferred to the Hong Kong Bank within a week.
This eight million was not a small expenditure for the White Russians.
However, in order for the plan to proceed smoothly.
He could only swallow the bitter fruit with his broken teeth.
Just as Zhang Xueming had expected.
Even if the Russians were so angry that they wanted to tear Wang Yongjiang apart, they could only agree to all the conditions.
At least, he had regained some face.
Wang Yongjiang's negotiations with the White Russians went smoothly, but Yang Yuting's work was somewhat difficult to carry out.
After the meeting that day.
Yang Yuting privately bumped heads with Zhang Xueming twice.
Zhang Xueming gave Yang Yuting a few pointers regarding the negotiations with the Guandong Army.
The two armies had many ways of dealing with each other.
He was very particular about strategy.
Although Yang Yuting was the chief diplomat during the reign of Marshal Zhang, he had many contacts with the Japanese army and could handle the problem with ease.
But this time, Yang Yuting wasn't too confident.
No!
More accurately, he felt a little guilty.
Why?
This was because the Guandong Army was already afraid of being tricked when Old Marshal Zhang was still in power.
Even his underwear was about to fall out.
The hundreds of millions of Japanese troops that were owed by Marshal Zhang during his reign had not been repaid even a single cent.
Just this debt matter alone.
The Kwantung Army simply stationed a group of people in the Department of Finance of the Heavenly Palace. Their daily task was to urge the army to repay the loan.
But Old Marshal Zhang himself did not return it, so why did the Japanese army think that Zhang Xueming would return it?
Moreover…
Not only did Zhang Xueming not return a single cent, but he also continued to take money out of the Japanese army's pockets!!
