Fengxian Jiangshan

Just before Xu Shuzheng came, Zhang Tinglan had already sent a secret telegram to Sun Liechen, which put forward these two conditions emphatically, which must be resolved by the non-fengjun at present.Once the agreement between Duan Qirui and Japan is signed, Fengjun will have a sharp sword on his head, which can fall at any time, and will seriously affect Fengtian's economic construction, so it must not be passed.

As for the other two things that Zhang Tinglan covets most, the aviation school is the foundation of the future air force, and its importance is self-evident. As for the Dagu Shipyard, it is one of the important factories that cannot be missed.

Dagu Shipbuilding was built very early. Before the Beiyang Fleet officially became an army, the Dagu Factory was established. It was mainly responsible for the maintenance of the Beiyang Fleet. It repaired a large number of Beiyang ships, and then began to imitate arms. ability, during the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], mines were also produced.

However, like all the factories in the Qing Dynasty, they were just projects. Due to insufficient orders and insufficient investment, the situation of the factory became worse and worse. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, the Dagu Shipyard suffered unprecedented catastrophe. In the factory, all the machines were dismantled, and the number of workers changed from more than 600 in its heyday to only about 180.

Afterwards, after a dismal operation, the scale of the factory continued to recover, and the Beiyang government also invested some funds. Just last year, the Dagu Shipyard successfully imitated the Maxim machine gun. It can be seen that the factory still has some accumulation, but because the Beiyang government did not pay enough attention, Dagu Gu Shipyard can only barely survive by contracting some projects.

But it may not be a big deal in Beiyang's eyes, but Zhang Tinglan pays special attention to the Dagu Shipyard, where the earliest batch of shipbuilders in China gathered, many of whom were old craftsmen from the Qing Dynasty. honed.They have many excellent practical skills, which are definitely very valuable assets.

In the field of technology, it is not only what is invented that is considered great.It is equally important to turn the things on the drawings into real objects.And in order to do this, what is most needed is the practical skills accumulated from generation to generation of workers, and these workers have been drafted to be called a huge asset.

Moreover, if the Dagu factory can be acquired, Fengjun will have the foundation of the shipbuilding industry and can fill the gap in the industry of the three eastern provinces.At present, the Dagu Shipyard can repair small and medium-sized warships, and can also produce cargo ships of several hundred tons.If some machines are added, it will not be a problem to produce thousand-ton ships. In this way, warships such as destroyers, frigates, patrol boats, and torpedo boats can be produced by Fengjun itself. This is also a great step.

In Zhang Tinglan's overall plan, the navy ranks at the end of the three armies.As a country with a vast territory, the army is the foundation of the country.And the Air Force world was just getting started.It is also the time when the gap between Fengjun and the world is the smallest, so we must firmly bite.

Only the navy, since the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], Fengjun has lagged far behind its main opponent, Japan. At this time, to vigorously develop the navy is to use its own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths.Very unwise.

Of course, this is not to say that the sea power will not be developed. On the contrary, a lot of energy must be invested. The mission of Fengjun's sea power is to ensure the safety of the coastal areas and cooperate with the air force.Basically guarantee the control of the Bohai Sea.If the strength is enhanced, then focus on submarines, threatening the Japanese sea lifeline with underwater power, and finally develop aircraft carrier power to compete for China's overseas interests.

Zhang Tinglan has a very clear idea of ​​naval development, but the starting point of these is the shipbuilding industry, and the Dagu Shipbuilding Institute is an indispensable link.Moreover, the Dagu factory also has the ability to manufacture guns, and it can be integrated into the military industry system of the Fengjun.

China's industrial foundation is not good at all. As long as there are a few factories, if Fengjun wants to develop rapidly, it must not fall at all. Try to move all of them to the three northeastern provinces to quickly establish an industrial system.

When Xu Shuzheng heard Sun Liechen's asking price, his face immediately changed. If the privileges of the three eastern provinces were not sold to the Japanese, Japan would definitely not agree to the loan, which meant that the loan would be yellow. How could Xiao Xu's face look good.As for the aviation school and the Dagu factory, they are also Beiyang's property, and handing them over to Feng Jun is tantamount to cutting flesh on his body, and he doesn't want to agree.

Seeing Xu Shuzheng's perplexed face, Sun Liechen said with a smile: "Secretary General Xu, just now a telegram has been sent from the front, and the Feng army has successfully repelled the counterattack of the braided army. The reason why we didn’t take any action is that we didn’t want to make things difficult for Mr. Duan. If you are still unwilling to agree, then things will be difficult to handle?”

Sun Liechen's words were like knives, piercing Xu Shuzheng's heart. After seeing the Fengjun troops, Xu Shuzheng knew that it was a very powerful force. If they cut off the supply of arms, they could still defeat Zhang Xun. It really has the strength to break through Beijing.

Li Yuanhong is bound to gain power if Feng Jun advances to Beijing, and Duan Qirui will never be cleared of his crimes, and I am afraid he will never be prime minister again.Regardless of Beiyang's harmony, it seems that everyone respects Duan Qirui, but no matter what the facts are, everyone has a score in mind.

Take this rebellion as an example. After the Fengjun's actions accelerated, Wu Peifu, the number one general under Cao Kun, the governor of Zhili, also accelerated his marching speed. He rushed into Beijing before Duan Qirui. Grabbing shifts and seizing power is actually an internal and external trouble.

After careful weighing, Xu Shuzheng stomped his feet, barely squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Okay!"

Seeing that Xu Shuzheng gave in, Sun Liechen also showed a smile on his face: "Secretary General Xu really can take care of the overall situation. Don't worry, I will send a telegram to Zhuoyan now, asking them to cooperate with your actions as much as possible. It is you who put down the rebellion. of!"

After the two sides negotiated the conditions, Lao Duan also hurriedly swore an oath, and quickly drove towards Beijing along the railway. Sun Liechen also sent a telegram to Zhang Tinglan, telling the situation.

Seeing that the old Duan finally gave in, Zhang Tinglan was also very happy. The main purpose of leading the troops into the customs this time was to gain various practical benefits. Now he has swallowed two pieces of fat, but for Zhang Tinglan, this is just Just an appetizer, the real meal is yet to come.

When the troops were resting, Zhang Tinglan called Xia Han over.

"Zhang Xun was severely injured by us. I think he is about to lose his strength. You go and put some ammunition on him to make him last for a while, especially bullets and grenades. Supply as much as possible, but there is a premise that the price must be doubled Just do it!"

"Don't worry, I know all about it."

Xia Han happily accepted the task, left Nanyuan immediately, and sneaked into the city.At this time, Zhang Xun, the commander-in-chief, had just returned from defeat, his face was full of sorrow, and his subordinates were crying like they wanted to eat bitter melon.

The other old and young, the civil and military officials who had just been released were all panicked at this time, as if they were mourning their concubine.The vast majority of these people are full-fledged idiots. If they had the ability, they would have started tormenting when the Qing Dynasty fell, so why wait until now.

In the past few years, they have also felt a great loss. Although there is still a lot of money in the family, there is no power left.

Finally, Zhang Xun was restored and gave them a chance to crawl out of the grave. Like zombies, they stretched out a hand from the grave, and were about to enjoy the emperor's rain and dew, but their only pillar was destroyed. In the fiasco, seeing that Beijing is about to lose its security, can they not worry about it!

"Don't look like a dead father. As long as I, Zhang Xun, still have three inches of energy, I will definitely keep His Majesty safe. There will be no mistakes. Now the whole city is on alert, and all troops are strictly on guard, vowing to defend the country to the death. .

"My lord, Duan Qirui also vowed to send troops. One day later, Fengjun and Beiyang's three-way army will join forces under the city. Do you still have a way to deal with it?"

Faced with Kang Youwei's question, Zhang Xun shook his head and said loudly: "Yes, why not, I will order now that all the Eight Banners in the city gather, all under the age of 50 and over the age of 12, all take guns for me, Even if you fight for blood, you must keep the master's country."

Hearing Zhang Xun's statement, Kang Youwei didn't say a word. As soon as he turned around, the Kang saint went on to go to the toilet, quickly put on his usual clothes, put on his mended clothes, court boots, flower feathers, and court beads. They were all rolled together and thrown into the big cesspit.

Kang Shengren knew in his heart that Zhang Xun was completely desperate, and there was no hope. This dream of restoring the Qing Dynasty should also be awakened. Whoever wants to die will die. Anyway, Kang Shengren will not stay and be shot. Think it over, as long as you run to Dongjiaomin Lane and take shelter of foreigners, you can save your life.

During the Reform Movement of [-] last time, he escaped like this, and now he is still grabbing medicine according to the prescription. While escaping, he also looked at the suit of the Manchu Qing officials in the cesspit. The last cruelty, I am afraid that in this life Can no longer be worn.

Kang Shengren ran away first, but Zhang Xun was still unwilling to give up and was ready to fight. He took out all the remaining ammunition and armed the braided army, but what made Zhang Xun very angry was that there were guns and artillery, that is, The bullets couldn't keep up, how could he not be annoyed, he couldn't help scolding Gao Xiaoshan for being stupid, why didn't he know how to buy a weapon with all the bullets!

At this time, someone suddenly brought a one-armed young man to ask for an interview. After seeing Zhang Xun, the young man was not restrained at all, but smiled and opened his mouth.

"Prince Zhang, I heard that you have encountered a little difficulty now. I happen to have a batch of ammunition to sell. If you want it, I will send it to you immediately!"

"Crazy man, do you think that arms can be used casually, even if you have bullets, can you guarantee the same caliber?"

"Isn't it an 400mm Steyrman Lisha rifle? What's the problem? I have [-] million rounds of ammunition. I wonder if Prince Zhang wants it?"

Zhang Xun's eyes turned red when he heard it, this was exactly what he needed: "How much do you want?"

The young man waved his hand: "Five million, not a penny less!" (To be continued...)
