"Everyone, according to the information we've gathered so far, Yuan Kewen's ambition is not small. With the support of Big Head Yuan, they pulled up a team of more than 100,000 people. However, these were just new recruits who had never fought in a war. It was hard to say how much combat power they could have. We might not be a match for the other party alone. But if we join forces, we can defeat him. Does anyone have any objections to the alliance?”Zhang Zuolin asked.
Feng Delin, Zhang Shaozheng, Lan Tianwei, and the others all expressed their willingness to join forces.
Even though they wanted to kill each other and dominate Fengtian.
However, Yuan Kewen wanted to take over Fengtian, which was undoubtedly unacceptable to them.
"Alright then, since we are going to join forces, we naturally have to show off our assets. I have an infantry division, a cavalry brigade, and four mixed brigades.”Zhang Zuolin said first.
"Didn't you only have one division, one cavalry regiment, and two mixed regiments?”Feng Delin was a little surprised.
They were old rivals, so they naturally knew Zhang Zuolin's strength very well.
"Two more mixed regiments have just been formed.”Zhang Zuolin replied.
Feng Delin couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhang Zuolin.
"I only have one full division and two mixed regiments.”Feng Delin said.
"I have an entire division and a mixed regiment!”Zhang ShaoZeng replied.
"I have two mixed regiments!" Lan Tianwei said.
Among the four, Lan Tianwei was undoubtedly the weakest.
Even so, they had a total of three infantry divisions, nine mixed brigades, and one cavalry brigade. The total number of soldiers had reached 80,000.
Such strength was already quite formidable.
"As the saying goes, a snake can't live without a head. Since we have joined forces to oppose Yuan Kewen's entry into Fengtian, we have formed an alliance. Naturally, a leader would be in charge of this for the time being. I'm not talented, but I'm willing to be the person in charge.”Zhang Zuolin said.
"Why are you in charge? Our strength is not much different. If you can be it, can't I be it?" Feng Delin immediately jumped out and fought with Zhang Zuolin for the position of Alliance Leader.
They knew very well that once they became the leader of the Alliance, they would be able to become the leader of the Alliance.
Then, after defeating Yuan Kewen, wouldn't the position of Fengtian Commander-in-Chief be easy to grasp?
Zhang Shaozheng and Lan Tianwei didn't say a word. They knew very well that the position of the Alliance would never fall into their hands.
Instead of doing this, it was better to wait for Zhang Zuolin and Feng Delin to fight for it.
"In the past, our strength was not much different. But now, I have two more mixed regiments. In that case, I already have two more mixed regiments and one more cavalry regiment than you. My strength has already surpassed yours!”Zhang Zuolin said proudly.
" You…" Feng Delin was very dissatisfied.
However, he then looked at Zhang Shaozheng.
"Old Zhang, support me. In that case, the two of us together will have two regimented infantry divisions and three mixed brigades.”Feng Delin said.
Zhang Shaozeng was suddenly moved.
Zhang Zuolin quickly spoke up.
"I also received the support of the East Asian people. The East Asians have already promised that if we can't stop Yuan Kewen, they can even personally send troops to participate. The Japanese had even defeated the Russians. Everyone could imagine their strength. Therefore, this time, we will definitely be able to defeat Yuan Kewen.”Zhang Zuolin said to everyone.
In order to become the leader of the alliance, Zhang Zuolin did not hesitate to expose the fact that he had sided with the Japanese.
Feng Delin, Zhang Shaozheng, Lan Tianwei, and the others 'expressions changed drastically.
They were well aware of how powerful the East Asians were.
But they didn't expect Zhang Zuolin to collude with the East Asians.
This undoubtedly made Zhang Zuolin even more powerful. If they wanted to compete with Zhang Zuolin, it would be even more difficult.
"The two mixed regiments that you just formed were given weapons by the Japanese?”Feng Delin asked.
"That's right!" Zhang Zuolin admitted frankly.
Feng Delin's eyes could not help but flash with disappointment.
Zhang Shaozheng and Lan Tianwei didn't say anything else.
With the support of the Japanese, Zhang Zuolin naturally became the leader of the Anti-Yuan Alliance.
"Everyone, don't worry. After defeating Yuan Kewen, everyone would naturally benefit.”Zhang Zuolin was very happy.
In his opinion, the position of Fengtian Governor seemed to be within his grasp.
"In that case, let's send a joint message to the Beiyang government and tell them that we don't welcome Second Young Master Yuan into Fengtian. In order to avoid hurting everyone's harmony, it was better for Big Head Yuan to change the order!
If Big Head Yuan knew what was good for him and changed the order, it would be good for everyone. But if he doesn't know what's good for him, then don't blame us.”
Zhang Zuolin said.
Feng Delin and the others had no objections to this.
Although they were very dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin, even if they wanted to oppose him, they had to defeat Yuan Kewen first.
On August 27th, 1812, Zhang Zuolin, Feng Delin, Zhang Shaozeng, Lan Tianwei, and the others jointly sent a message to Yuan Kewen to reject his entry into Fengtian Province and asked Yuan Datou to retract his order.
