    Zhang Hanqing, who knew the face of the Japanese, would not let the story repeat itself so easily. He plausibly said: "Interfering in the Far East is not a war against China. The Northeast Autonomous Government will never agree to the so-called military control of the Middle East Road! Fengjun has established provincial security headquarters.  The Black Province has also specially established the 'Middle East Road Protection Command', so the transportation of various military supplies is not a problem at all. Moreover, if the limited intervention force carries out routine protection tasks on the Middle East Road, it will weaken the strength of the troops."

    "As for the transportation of military supplies on the Middle East Road, it will be done according to the civilian transportation regulations. Of course, in order to support the coalition forces in Siberia, the Northeast government has halved the cost. The coalition forces can send a small number of soldiers to escort the vehicles, but they are not allowed to carry weapons. The Chinese military and police  They will also be detained in the vehicle to prevent any mistakes." When it comes to the issue of sovereignty, it is better not to be too casual.

    When I used your railway to suppress bandits, you tried to "escort" the Guards Brigade against all odds. Now I am following your example and helping you "escort" munitions. It's a tit-for-tat approach. This is absolutely unambiguous.

    ¡°Everyone has already sworn that there will be no problem, what else do you want?  Hoshino is willing but powerless. He can't just say outright that I just want to own the China Eastern Railway, right?  In this way, it is inevitable that our young commander will be hated by the Japanese.

    ¡°Whatever, if there are gains, there must be losses, and if there are losses, there must be gains.  No, it offended the Japanese, but invisibly helped Soviet Russia.

    After the October Revolution, in order to give the newly born Soviet regime a chance to breathe, Russia and Germany signed the Brest-Litovsk Peace Treaty, successfully withdrawing from the Soviet Union on the humiliating terms of ceding millions of square kilometers of land and paying compensation of 6 billion marks.  A battle.  As a member of the Allied Powers, the Soviet Union's separate peace negotiation aroused serious dissatisfaction with Britain and France. Moreover, because of their hostility to the Soviet Union and their historical responsibility for weakening Russia, the United States, Britain, the Czech Republic, Japan and other countries wanted to form an intervention army and arm Belarus.  The army has launched an attack on the Soviet Union's Workers' and Peasants' Red Guards.

    At the same time, the Far East Intervention Force composed of the United States, Japan, Canada and other countries also began to be formed. The Soviet Russian regime had the task of falling into a war on the east and west fronts.  In particular, intelligence shows that the main mission of the Far East Intervention Force is to land in Vladivostok, Temple Street, and Khabarovsk to open up railway transportation and seaports for the Czech Army and the Russian White Army in Siberia and the Urals, and gain access to  Direct material support from the Allies.

    Originally, the military policy set by the Central Committee of the Soviet Communist Party was to focus on Europe first, and only sent guerrillas to resist sporadically in Asia. It was probably the idea of ????exchanging space for time.  But if the intervention forces occupy the China-Eastern Railway, they can easily move their troops to the heart of Siberia. Using the Trans-Siberian Railway, they can easily threaten any local Soviet power along the route.

    Having been dealing with the Japanese for a long time, the Russians know all too well that the Japanese covet the Far East.  That "going north" plan has become one of Japan's undecided national policies. Who wouldn't know about it?  The Japanese occupied the southern part of Sakhalin during the Russo-Japanese War, and now they are sharpening their eyes on such fertile land in the Far East.  The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union had already foreseen that the future war with Japan would be a very difficult nut to crack, because the wolf would not easily change its mind about advancing northward until it was beaten to pain.

    At this time, the Chinese, who had always been weak, showed rare toughness and blocked the interventionist army's attempt to use the Middle East route to quickly approach the heart of Soviet Russia in Asia.  If we just land in cities such as Vladivostok and Khabarovsk, and then attack the European part of Soviet Russia step by step, we will not get good results in a year.  Because their attack required the long Trans-Siberian Railway.  As long as a number of guerrilla groups harass the two flanks, the intervention forces (mainly the Japanese army) without logistical security will not dare to invade in a large scale and can only encroach.

    After such a long period of time, the ruling party in Soviet Russia was confident that it could recover.

    As a result, their favorable impression of Zhang Hanqing greatly increased, and the Feng Faction, as an important political group, also entered the Soviet Russians' sight, even though the central government where it was located currently held a hostile attitude towards Soviet Russia.

    At this time, the Duan Qirui government, as the central government, had a rare opportunity to send troops abroad to show their face, so they sent an honor guard-style troops to go abroad. The military appearance was strangely neat.

    ?? 661 officers and soldiers of the advance force of the Army's 9th Division, led by regimental commander Song Huanzhang, set off from Beijing on July 18; on July 24, battalion commander Su Bingwen led 667 officers and soldiers on a naval warship to Vladivostok.  By October 26, six batches of more than 2,000 officers and soldiers had taken trains to Vladivostok via Harbin to participate in the intervention against Soviet Russia.  The navy, consisting of the cruiser Hai Rong and its attached troops led by Admiral Lin Jianzhang, also headed for Vladivostok.  Lin Jianzhang, acting admiral of the navy (equivalent to a commodore), controls the overall situation.

    This has produced an interesting phenomenon: as the main body of the country, the Duan Qirui regime in Beijing does not recognize and oppose Russia, but as a local government unit, the Feng Faction has a sympathetic attitude.  The reason why the army went outThe team is the Ninth Division of the Beiyang Army rather than the nearby Fengjun troops, and the conflict with Zhang Zuolin and the others is inseparable.

    In fact, based on Zhang Zuolin's thoughts, he also wanted to take advantage of the fire and vote for the Soviets, but Zhang Hanqing stopped him.

    Because it was this eldest son who had anticipated the great changes in the Russian government in the early days, and thus took advantage of the opportunity to borrow money from Daosheng Bank.  Two large sums of arms and equipment worth a total of seven million rubles entered Zhang Zuolin's command.  Strangely enough, the development of the incident was exactly what Zhang Hanqing had "predicted".  After the outbreak of the February Revolution, because of uneasiness about the political situation, Daosheng Bank urged Zhang Hanqing to repay the loan in advance. It even proposed an interest rate reduction plan, but he politely declined it as "it's not time yet."

    By November, when it was time to repay the principal and interest, I found that even if the value had depreciated to one-thirtieth of the due principal amount, I didn¡¯t know who to repay it to.  Daosheng Bank has already gone into chaos, so how can it still take care of this loan?  In this way, Zhang Zuolin, who was not good at diplomatic relations, had to praise his vision.  Even Zhang Zuoxiang, Sun Liechen and others admired this very much.

    So when Zhang Hanqing went against all opinions and demanded that we lay a solid foundation with the Soviet Russian regime and at least for now not to add insult to injury, everyone reluctantly agreed.  Because he also told everyone with eloquent words: Soviet Russia will eventually win.

    Zhang Hanqing knew the reason. He did not want to be called a "magic stick" at a young age. His external excuse was to get the information in advance from Gu Weijun, the minister to the United States.  As we all know, he and Gu Weijun are brothers.

    This explanation is much more credible, but Zhang Zuolin doesn¡¯t believe it.  In this era, unlike later generations, communication can be easily carried out through an email.  With the current communication methods, to get in touch with Washington from Fengtian, the telegram must first be sent to Shanghai, then from Shanghai to New York, and then to Washington.  It's hard to imagine that the two of them could talk about anything so "intimately".  It is true that the old Zhang family has money, but it has not reached the point of "making telegraph porridge" - money aside, wires are also very precious.

    However, the nature of Green Forest made Lao Zhang choose to believe Xiao Zhang¡¯s words again.  There is not necessarily any benefit in following the Soviet Union. With the Japanese and other foreign soldiers here, there will be no problem with the Chinese soldiers.  On the contrary, if the "burning cold stove" is burned incorrectly, there will be no loss.  Of course, if the bet is right, as the two sides are doing now, there are great benefits.

    Because the Zhang Zuolin regime, which at least maintained a "neutral" posture, actually delayed the interventionist forces' penetration into the Far East, Zhang Hanqing did not arouse the other party's resentment when communicating with the Soviet Union to negotiate the territory of Mokuowei.

    Although he did have the idea of ??"taking advantage of your illness to kill you".

    As we all know, the late Qing government and Russia signed three major unequal treaties: the Yuhun Treaty, the Sino-Russian Treaty of Beijing, and the Sino-Russian Treaty on the Demarcation of the Northwest Boundary, which successively occupied more than 1.4 million square kilometers.  The land is equivalent to the combined area of ??two Frances and one Poland today.  This treaty greatly damaged China's territorial integrity and basically cut off Northeast China's access to the sea.

    It is said to be "basic" because the "Beijing Treaty" between China and Russia contains the words "the above-mentioned areas are open spaces and Russia is not allowed to occupy them." The above refers to the 400,000 square meters from the Ussuri River Estuary to the Tumen River Estuary.  kilometers of land.  The appendix to the 1861 Sino-Russian Eastern Boundary Demarcation Treaty clearly stated: "From the east of the Tumen River estuary to the Suifen River estuary, there are Katai addresses along the coast, which are the fishing and hunting grounds of the banner people and the fourteen islands in the middle of the sea.  place."

    This "empty land" is the area from Mokuowei to the mouth of the Tumen River, also known as the Hanqi Coast in the past.  As the traditional residence and fishing and hunting place of the Chinese Manchu tribe, Mokuowei retained the rights of the Chinese in the treaty.  Therefore, the later minister of boundary demarcation Wu Daguo proposed to take it back and negotiated for it for a long time, but to no avail, that's for sure.

    Now that Zhang Hanqing is revisiting the old case, he wants to take the opportunity to turn this case over and implement it.  Because he knew that in later generations, when Russia and Mauritius became stronger, they would no longer want to engage in territorial negotiations with China, even if they were purely of a "friendship" nature.  Between December 1972 and July 1973, the Supreme Soviet Presidium even issued an administrative order to systematically replace almost all old Chinese place names north of Heilongjiang and east of the Ussuri River in an attempt to erase the history of the Chinese development and management of the Far East.  trace.

    On the map of China or the world map we see today, except for the Chinese place names in parentheses such as Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, and Hailanpao, all the geographical names marked on the original Chinese territory have changed.  It became a lengthy and difficult-to-remember Russian translation.  Since then, the Chinese government has lost this opportunity forever, unless it takes the risk of launching a nuclear war - which is almost impossible in modern international society.

    Therefore, Zhang Hanqing decided to make a small comeback here no matter what. Of course, he had good reasons.  A month ago, Zhang Hanqing had been appointed as the special envoy of the patrol mission in the three eastern provinces, responsible for all foreign affairs liaison and discussions with Russia.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?Has been appointed as the special envoy of the patrol mission in the three eastern provinces, responsible for all foreign affairs liaison and discussions with Russia.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
