Chapter 333 The Blue Sky Comes
Zhu Kaishan also thought about confronting the Japanese head-on, but he didn't expect it to be now.I don't know what's going on, but when he hears about the Japanese, he always gets a kind of inexplicable excitement, so let's put it out there, and listen to his son's explanation, Lao Zhu holds his nose and bears it. In his heart, Hei Province is already his territory, and the existence of the insurance team is largely for the development of Hanyao.

"At the end of April, the expansion of the insurance team is about to begin. When Zhu Shaofang's fully staffed column is expanded, Zhu Shaofang will be sent to Yanbian Mansion." Zhu Kaishan is also angry, 4 people, this is Zhu Kaishan The size of the planned infantry column supported by artillery, so many people are placed in Yanbian Mansion, Russia on one side, and North Korea backed by the Japanese on the other, both sides have to weigh.

According to Japanese calculations, this is a full division.

In fact, both father and son understood in their hearts that there is another benefit of having more people, that is, to use more people and training to seal off the training ground, so the hunters and North Korean rebels are enough to conduct transactions secretly.

"Come on! Dad, the rest is the second thing. Didn't Xiliang come to Fengtian? This is also your chance to make meritorious deeds!" Zhu Chuanwen said again.

Andre has the ability to turn two things into one, and Zhu Chuanwen also has the ability to turn one thing into two, benefiting both sides.They are all good leaders, and they are not white lotuses.

Today's insurance team or the Qing court regiment training team is clearly regarded as the strength of the Qing court. The large-scale garrison of Yanbian Prefecture is bound to attract the attention of the Qing court, so this matter will be pushed forward smoothly...

Xiliang, the conservative governor of Kwantung in the Qing court is the crux of the problem.At the same time, the issue of Jiandao's sovereignty has become urgent.

Xu Shichang went to Beijing to take up the post of Minister of Posts and Communications in February, and Xiliang also came from Guangxi to take up the post of Governor of Kanto.

Meeting Xiliang has become a big issue facing the Zhu family and his son, and the position of the Russians this time is a good gift for them to meet the governor.

Ceded, ceded, ceded.

This is the most deadly pain point why the Qing court was looked down upon by others in later generations. Regardless of ethnic factors, even the violent Yuan has never been discriminated against in this way in later generations.

But fortunately, starting from Xu Shichang, the situation in Kanto has stabilized a bit, at least it has become tougher. The Qing court is quite disgusting towards North Korea, a small country that intends to cede part of the territory of the Qing court.

It's fine for the big guy to bully me, but you still want to rob me with a stick?

Holding the stick, it is because North Korea is now an agricultural country with nothing. Even with the support of the Japanese behind it, in the minds of the Qing court ministers, North Korea is still a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a former younger brother, and it is not taken seriously at all. .

"What do you mean, I'm going to meet the Mongol this time?" Zhu Kaishan was not happy when he heard that the boss said that before Xu Shichang and Gong Baosen were old, this time a Mongol came, and he had to bow down when he went. Zhu Kaishan, who gradually awakened his self-esteem, did not want to be wronged.

"Father, it's not suitable for me to go. After all, I'm in the Qing court now, and I'm just a small agricultural official in Yilan Mansion. You are Zhu Tuanlian from Tuanlian Province. If you meet a big literati like Li Bai again, you will be I don’t need to be a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, but I hope to know the existence of Zhu Hei Province!” Although it is not appropriate to say that to his father, Zhu Chuanwen is just stroking the donkey.

"Zhu Heisheng, come on. It doesn't sound as good as Zhu Longjiang." Old Zhu smiled, like a man-eating Hades, he naturally knew Li Bai's "Book with Han Jingzhou". For thousands of years, Han Jingzhou can be regarded as famous.

Zhu Chuanwen snickered inwardly, still flattering: "Father, you are right, I will serialize "Martial Universe Zhu Longjiang Biography" in "Trade Union Weekly" later!"

"Come on, what's the matter with martial arts!" Lao Zhu's mouth was still grinning.

twice!Zhu Chuanwen can be regarded as taking pictures of Lao Zhu's two most proud points.

"Then I'll meet this Xiliang!" Zhu Kaishan said that he seemed to be the governor of the three provinces in the Kanto region.

"I'll see you! Isn't this giving him credit? He solved the unresolved matter for many years, comparable to Zuo Zongtang!" Zhu Chuanwen mentioned casually, wearing a high hat, but he is good at it.

"Okay, I'll leave now, just in time to meet your Uncle Gong!" Old Zhu agreed with a smile.This matter is settled, so the matter of the expansion of the Zhu family's insurance team is a matter of course, at least not like before, and then discussed with his son how to reduce the influence, so that the Qing court would not pay attention to it.

Zhu Chuanwen sent Zhu Kaishan away with a smile, and then thought of his old mother, wondering if he ordered his father away again, if the old mother knew, would she pull his ears...

Fengtian
Compared with taking the train, Zhu Kaishan prefers to ride a horse.

The crotch rides on the snow and the crow is his favorite mount.

Governor's Mansion

Xiliang, courtesy name Qingbi, was born in the Bayuete clan of Mongolia Xianglan Banner.He was somewhat round and chubby, with a crescent mustache that curved downward on his lips.

In the late Qing Dynasty, there were not a few Mongolians who reused them.

Speaking of Xiliang's official career, it can be regarded as the complete opposite of the fate of the Qing court. Since 1900, one has gone up and the other has gone down.Of course, this also has something to do with Zhu Kaishan.

In 1900, when the Boxers invaded the capital area, Xiliang was ordered to lead his troops northward to defend the capital. Later, he learned that Cixi and Guangxu fled to Xi'an, so he changed to Taiyuan, Shanxi to escort him. All kinds of preparations are leisurely.Xiliang can be regarded as the big head. After visiting the mother and son in Shanxi, they were appointed by the mother and son as the governor of Shanxi, which is commonly known as the Queen of the Palace.

However, since then, Xiliang has embarked on a journey of first-rank officials as Governor of Sichuan, Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and Governor of Kanto.Recently, after meeting the governors of the Kanto, he was thinking about the next step... Then he heard someone report that Zhu Kaishan, a member of the Black Provincial Regiment, asked to see him.

Tuanlian, this is the first time Xiliang has transferred to the Qing court, and it is the first time he heard such an official position in the Kanto, because this position is not within the bureaucratic system of the Qing court at all, but he knows who this person is, Xu Shichang left At that time, the most talked about was what kind of achievements this Black Province regiment trainer and his son had made in Xu's unreformed Black Province.

"Call in!" Xi Liang said to the servants, curiosity was his inner thoughts at the moment.What kind of person can make such an evaluation as Xu Shichang?
"Meet the governor!" Zhu Kaishan came in and kowtowed to Xiliang. In order to meet the governor, he changed into a gown that he hadn't worn for a long time and a robe, so that the robe drooped to cover his body that was an inch above the ground. knee.

"Get up! I was about to summon you, but I didn't expect you to come to Kaishan by yourself!" Xi Liang stroked his two mustaches in a good mood, and as Xu Shichang said, he was also a sensible person. "sit down!"

"Thank you sir!"

"My lord Xu has praised your father and son so much." Xi Liang spoke softly. He was one of the few ministers in the late Qing Dynasty who could be regarded as honest and diligent.

"That's all Mr. Xu's absurd praise! This time, I also want to invite my lord to go to Binjiang Mansion. The insurance team was ordered by Mr. Xu to keep the whole province safe. , Qingtian is here too!" Zhu Kaishan said with a smile.

"Haha, you can talk! Hmm...Let's discuss it later in the Binjiang Mansion, but I heard that the governor and general of Hei Province just left Fengtian two days ago, and they also appreciate you, Zhu Kaishan, saying that you Our team is a farmer in leisure time and a soldier in wartime, and his ability is really not weak."

"It was all thanks to the blessing of the previous governor, and this time I came here to benefit from the blessing of the governor."

"Okay, let you have a dip. Your son didn't come. I also saw Hanyao's farm tools. It's very good. Next year, there will still be 10 pairs of farm tools for Hanyao to make. It's the same as before. It can't be done because of Xu. After your lord resigns, start fooling the governor!" Xi Liang's tone was a little harsher, he has also seen a lot of chaos in these years, there are many positive and negative things, and although Kanto is improving, it is still a mess.

Strict administration of officials, abolishing the military system, cleaning up finances, rectifying the salt affairs, and preparing for the livelihood of the Eight Banners are all problems he will face.The last point is the most critical, Xu Shichang was transferred away, in addition to being implicated with Yuan Shikai, the Eight Banners in the Kanto region also contributed.

Xu Shichang didn't want to see the Eight Banners. His former police department, that is, the police system that emerged in the late Qing Dynasty, was ruined by the Eight Banners in the capital. He didn't want to be disgusted again in Kanto.The regent Zaifeng deliberated over and over again, and only then did Xiliang of the Mongolian Eight Banners come to Kanto.

"Thank you, my lord!" Zhu Kaishan finished speaking, seeing that Xiliang had nothing to say, he said after a moment: "Your Excellency, I have something to say when I come here this time."

"Tell me, is there any happy event in Hei Province?"

"Jiandao!"

The two words immediately made Xi Liang cautious. "What happened? Who is this time?" The Russians, Japanese, and Koreans were all entangled in that place, and Xi Liang was not sure who made the mistake this time.

"There is nothing wrong, but Governor, I want to get rid of this problem!" Zhu Kaishan's righteous words seemed to be the number one dog leg of the Qing court.

"Kaishan! If you can see Jiandao, I can know that you are wholeheartedly for the country!" Xi Liang sighed, a little helpless. Preserving the territory is what he thinks is wholeheartedly for the country. At this time, especially from Yunnan to Guizhou After he came back, he saw a lot of cession and concessions for the sake of profit. Zhu Kaishan's move made him feel good, and he said earnestly: "However, Jiandao is no longer a simple territorial issue. Several forces are entrenched. International mediation is needed."

Mediation, yes.Many problems in the Qing Dynasty can no longer be decided by themselves, and international forces need to intervene. It is very much like a country in northern Europe in later generations, where all parties are playing games.

"Your Excellency, I actually came here because I had hope!"

"Oh?" Xiliang looked at Zhu Kaishan in surprise. Could it be that this person has some tricks?Or what did his son under the Russians do?
It has to be said that those who can serve as senior members of one party are those with a sharp mind. In the past two months, they have already figured out the local forces and guessed the support of the Zhu family, a force with a slightly Russian background.Zhu Chuanwen is close to Russia, but Zhu Kaishan has never been soft on Russia. How many Russian forces registered here in the Qing court among the bandits were completely handed over. It is precisely because of this that Xu Shichang and Xiliang let the Zhu family develop.

Zhu Kaishan went on to say: "Thanks to Governor Xu's kindness, last year I also took the position of a provincial regiment trainer, and my son also worried about it. The Jiandao area is also the only foreign-related problem in Heilongjiang province. After my son's constant lobbying Now, the Russians are willing to intervene. I think there is some hope that the Jiandao dispute can be resolved.”

The Russian mediation is really a good thing for Xiliang.

Jiandao was originally provoked by them, and now they can withdraw, which leaves confrontation with North Korea and Japan.

In terms of international power, Russia is a big country. The Hague system proposed by Emperor Nicholas II a few years ago is a bit like the United Nations.However, this control power is considered to be broken in Europe, but it is still applicable in Asia. If the Qing court still has the support of Russia, which has changed its identity, for a small regional dispute, it can easily deal with North Korea and Japan. Xi I thought about it in my conscience.

The situation in Kanto is indeed grim, and several forces are entangled. The issue of Jiandao alone has been entangled for 10 years. The Koreans said it belonged to them, and the Qing court said it belonged to us. Under such circumstances, Wu Luzhen, with the support of Xu Shichang He presided over the compilation of the "Yanji Border Affairs Report", in which Wu Luzhen sneaked into North Korea and searched for maps from the Koreans' own books to explain the historical roots.

However, it is really difficult to wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.

"Kaishan, are you sure?" Xi Liang asked.

"My lord, I am sure, but we should still make a gesture."

"Keep talking!" Xi Liang really felt that Zhu Kaishan was a talent, and his gestures already showed that Zhu Kaishan already had certain political and diplomatic skills.

"My lord, Russian mediation is the basis, and we have to express our own attitude. I believe that military strength is the most deterrent. I request that the third town of Cao Kun's Beiyang Army be transferred to Yanbian Mansion!" Zhu Kaishan cupped his hands .

Xi Liang covered his head, the warrior in front of him could really find trouble for him, could Cao Kun's Beiyang Army be mobilized by himself?After Xu Shichang left, the gates of the Beiyang Army's third town camp were closed tightly, and there was constant sound of drills every day. Anyone with a discerning eye could see it at once.

Yuan Shikai, even though he is a civilian now and lives in seclusion in Henan, his military power has not been lost.

"Kaishan, the Beiyang army can't move lightly. In this way, your insurance team is well-equipped in the three provinces of Kanto. I ordered you to dispatch a town of soldiers and horses to station in Yanbian Mansion. You are right. The Russians have the best intentions, but We also have to make a good gesture, but we can't really fight!"

"My lord, the humble job understands, it's not a real fight, it's just a show, a humble job is not talented, and I am willing to be a pawn for my lord. But..."

"But you have to expand the army, right?" Xiliang actually expected it long ago. Xu Shichang also mentioned that the expansion of Zhu Kaishan's regiment training team is something that will definitely happen after the regiment training in a province, but he didn't expect it. , Zhu Kaishan also made a gimmick to take back the sovereignty of Jiandao.This person's loyalty is still treacherous, in his heart he has to discuss it later.

"Yes, my lord. I plan to deploy more than 1 people in Yanbian Mansion. I don't believe that North Koreans dare to cross the border for farming."

"More than 1 people." Xi Liang muttered, as if this idea was easier than Russian mediation.After thinking about it, he still had a heartbreak and decided that the more Jiandao was left behind, the harder it would be to solve it.

Seeing Zhu Kaishan go out, Xiliang immediately called his staff.

During the questions and answers, a group of people felt that even if Zhu Kaishan had tens of thousands of troops, he would not be afraid. After all, it was all the power of the Qing court, and Xu Shichang controlled it. They felt that Xu Shichang, a crystal fox, would not be afraid of the Zhu family Power has control.

What is scary now is the control of the Russians over North Manchuria and the Japanese over South Manchuria, so under the proposal of everyone, they waited for an opportunity to introduce American influence, such as the plan to borrow money from American banks to build a railway in Kanto, and began to be in Xiliang's heart Brewing.

After the end of April, the recruitment of the insurance team in early May started vigorously...

 Let me reveal to you masters in advance that I have returned to human civilization, and I will change 4000 twice a day to make up for what I owed before.
