Chapter 398: End War Agreement

After this news was announced, the whole of Japan was in an uproar! However, with the previous preparations made by various countries, no objections were seen. Japanese negotiators urgently met with Manchurian negotiators, and Japanese Prime Minister Takeshi Inukai urgently summoned all countries

ambassador.

But these seemed to have no effect. The countries headed by Britain and the United States chose to remain silent in the face of various cooperation with Manchuria. They even hoped that these damn Japanese pigs would die quickly so that they could announce that the two sides had entered the formal negotiation stage.

The Japanese were helpless when faced with this situation, and at this time another demonstration broke out in Manchuria! However, the theme and purpose of this parade were surprising! The reason why the students who walked out of the campus wanted to march was because they were unable to recruit soldiers for the National Defense Forces.

Recruit them into the army!

This made the Nanjing government and other warlords gnash their teeth in hatred, "Are you too arrogant?! We even have to recruit strong men to replenish the number of soldiers, so you are better! You have to choose and choose when you send them to your door!"

From the Nanjing National Government to the warlords in various places, they can't wait for those parades to come under their control! Then they will all become soldiers under their command. It is a pity that those people simply disdain the troops from the Nanjing National Government to the local warlords! What they want to join is the National Defense Force!

Looking at the people marching all over Fengtian, Yan Zhengqing, who was dealing with negotiations, couldn't help but smile bitterly! What the hell is this! Since the late Qing Dynasty, we know that there are people who march for losing their rights and humiliating the country. We know that there are people who march for rights and even for war.

of.

But this is the first time I know that there are people marching to join the army! Is the old saying "A good man should not be a soldier, and a good man should not hammer nails" have turned around now?!

What Yan Zhengqing didn't know was how much influence Tu Qianjun's coffin-carrying and funeral had on the people of Fengtian City! Each coffin was a life! A life sacrificed for the country!

The people who are responsible for cleaning the cemetery now are soldiers who have retired from the army! They clean the cemetery carefully and tell the stories of their comrades to those who come to visit the graves.

After the war subsided, the area of ​​this martyrs cemetery has reached 365 acres after a series of expansions. In front of the granite gate, there is a monument built with captured Japanese firearms, scrap cannons, etc.!

There is a line of big characters inscribed on the stele and tower: The heroes and martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country will shine with the sun and the moon! They will be immortal!!

The people responsible for managing the cemetery here are the soldiers who were injured and retired from the various armies in this battle. They are still soldiers of the National Defense Force, and they still train every day! They guard this cemetery and tell visitors about the people who died here.

The story of soldiers on the battlefield.

As these stories were passed down by word of mouth, the whole of Fengtian and even the three eastern provinces knew what these soldiers had paid for this land. The students who were particularly moved became the first batch of people who wanted to join the army.

Unfortunately, many of them were rejected during the review. Depressed, they could only express their wishes through marches and protests, hoping to get quotas to join the army.

Regarding the news sent by Secretary Yan Zhengqing, Tu Qianjun, who was busy inspecting the army, couldn't help but be stunned! Then he laughed and said: "What are you doing?! Tell those brats to go back to school and tell them! One month later

I will go to their school and give them an answer!"

The secretary couldn't help but smile after hearing Tu Qianjun's words. Since Tu Qianjun promised those students that he would go to their school to give them an answer, I believe those students would disperse. After all, it's not a big deal to make such a fuss!

Of course, the secretary was not stupid enough to directly paraphrase Tu Qianjun's words. Instead, he modified it and said that General Tu already knew their thoughts and promised to go to the school to listen to their opinions in person after finishing the work here.

Now these students were finally satisfied, and finally dispersed under the leadership of their seniors. What Tu Qianjun didn't know was that this parade not only shocked the Nanjing government and warlords everywhere! Even Huang Xiaoling, the spokesperson of the Red in Manchuria,

She was also extremely shocked. As an old person in the student movement, she naturally knew that no students had ever marched to join the army!

This is really an unheard of thing, but this unheard of thing really happened in Manchuria! After a series of overt and covert investigations, she finally understood the general outline of the matter.

After understanding this, she was filled with emotions! A few years ago, he was just a small battalion commander, but now he has become the leader of the entire three eastern provinces! Even vague countries regard Fengtian as the leader of the Republic of China, while Nanjing

It was put in second place!

This speed of rise is unparalleled, but it is definitely unprecedented!

Just after Tu Qianjun settled the matter of the student demonstration, the slow-reacting British finally sent back the news! Those gentlemen squatting in the London Parliament finally understood that the current Manchuria was not something they could control at all!

And because of their arrogance, they lost their share! Their missing share had already been taken by the Americans, and they couldn't get it back even if they wanted to. They had no choice but to swallow the bitter pill themselves and unanimously approved Tu Qianjun's decision.

proposal.

Since both Britain and the United States agreed, the first thing to do was to get rid of the Japanese. Then they could announce the cooperation between the two sides. For this reason, the British and American envoys to Japan frequently visited Inukai Takeshi, putting a lot of pressure on him overtly and covertly!

Even in Fengtian, the impartial British Consul General Lampson and the American Consul General Johnson jointly exerted pressure on the Japanese representative, Aoi Shigemitsu, the Deputy Foreign Minister of Japan, who came to negotiate!

At this time, the Soviet envoy also arrived in Fengtian, and held a press conference on the day of arrival! It was announced: For the sake of friendship and cooperation between Manchuria and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union decided to withdraw the Far East Army from Lake Baikal!

As soon as this announcement came out, the whole world was in an uproar! Isn't this...the Soviet Union too incompetent?! So it's being submissive?! Of course, the Soviet Union will not say that it is submissive, but claims that it is for the sake of regional mutual trust and stability.

, and a prudent decision made after a collective vote by the Soviet Committee!

This declaration became the last straw for Japan. On the day after the Soviet Union announced its decision, Japan also announced that it would accept the conditions proposed by Manchuria, but at the same time hoped that "Manchuria can consider those who have committed crimes but are now

People who are already getting older should be given a lighter punishment."

After paying 12 million, the Nanjing government finally got a seat that could not speak in the negotiations. They could not even leave their residence easily. Zhang Qun could only smile bitterly at this.

After Japan announced the conditions for accepting Fengtian, the Nanjing government also announced that Tu Qianjun would be promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the "Northeast Defense Force" and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the Republic of China, and he would also be appointed Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the Nanjing Junior High School.

Of course, Tu Qianjun threw these two appointments directly into the trash can in his office the moment he got the appointment. No one noticed that the original Northeastern Army originally stationed in Peiping and North China was reorganized into a border defense force.

The Northeast flag was removed.

At the same time, the main force of the 160,000-strong Northeastern Army was deployed by the Nanjing government to the Shaanxi-Gansu area. In the midst of the commotion, a tall man wearing a Northeastern Army coat quietly disembarked in Shanghai with only a simple greeting of three or five people.

Afterwards, he was invited into a car. Then he transferred to a train and rushed towards Nanjing. Looking at the changing scenery outside the window, the tall and strong man whispered to a rather classical and dignified woman beside him.

.

"Sister, Junzi is doing better than me now..."

On January 28, 1932, the long-running negotiations between the National Defense Forces and Japan finally came to an end. Japan fully accepted the conditions proposed by Fengtian and completely gave up the Luda area. It also gave up the Manchuria Railway, the right to garrison troops in Manchuria and the right to issue currency!

Japan agrees to the garrison of the National Defense Forces in the Yalu River area!

Since then, the war has ended with a complete victory for Manchuria! Only half a month after the negotiation ended, something happened that stunned Japan!

Britain announced that it would sign an agreement with Manchuria to build the upper half of the railway from Inner Mongolia to Manchuria. It would also work with Manchuria to jointly develop various mineral deposits along the railway and help Fengtian build a steel plant!

Before the Japanese could recover, the American Union Pacific Railway announced that it would take over the second half of the Inner Mongolia-Fengtian railway proposed by Fengtian. At the same time, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey announced that it would cooperate with the Fengtian government to find and explore oil in Manchuria!

The Japanese finally understood that the British and Americans had already been in contact with the people in Fengtian! Once the negotiations are concluded, all kinds of interests will naturally come one after another!

Not surprisingly, during the negotiations, although Britain and the United States originally favored Manchuria, they did not do so obviously. But in the later stage, they suddenly strongly supported Fengtian and even exerted various pressures!

Talking about "justice", after working for a long time, it turned out to be "righteousness"! For the sake of profit, those group of capitalists finally chose Fengtian, thus abandoning Japan.

Although it has woken up, it is a pity that Japan can only do nothing after the agreement has been signed. Moreover, to be fair, Japan cannot allocate so many benefits to Britain and the United States. After all, Japan itself exploits various technologies.

have.

There are also a large number of unemployed people in Japan. Even if they lack funds, the Japanese are not willing to allow the British and Americans to build railways in Manchuria. Therefore, after all, the Japanese can only suffer this embarrassing loss.

After the negotiation finally ended, the entire National Defense Force breathed a sigh of relief. Tu Qianjun started busy again, recruiting soldiers, providing pensions, arranging arrangements for disabled soldiers... and a series of other things were waiting for him to handle.

But the most important thing was to give a lecture in the school. After the students learned that Japan had chosen to completely withdraw from Manchuria during the negotiations, they cheered and marched again! Many people even petitioned for the National Defense Forces to cross the Yalu River.

Go! Completely annihilate the Japanese!
Chapter completed!
