    Logically speaking, when disaster strikes from heaven, it is Qi Xieyuan who should complain. He is the unjust disaster.  But Dai Li was also worried. For Dai Li, his intelligence officers sent to Shandong only had two or three hours to spare.  With just such a short time, it would be good to be able to build one or two secret strongholds in Jinan City.  If you want to spy into the Marshal's mansion, working part-time is just a pipe dream.  Not to mention spying on the Marshal's Mansion, even the small vendors who can deliver vegetables, meat and fruits to the Marshal's Mansion cannot be outsiders. They must be well-known in Jinan City and have a certain reputation. At least they are street vendors.  A well-known member of the family, an outsider, is it possible for him to get in?  It is even more impossible to talk about the people placed next to Qi Xieyuan.  Dai Li is wrinkled!  He didn't dare to explain these things clearly to Wang Xueqian. From his point of view, as long as it was a task assigned by Wang Xueqian, he had no room for bargaining. What conditions were difficult?  The short time is not an excuse.  What intelligence officers do is to turn corruption into magic, to turn impossible things into real results.  In this regard, the Japanese military is the best in the world.  Of course, the resources that Japanese intelligence personnel can squander and use are among the best in the world.  In the Far East intervention alone, Japan dispatched three divisions into the Russian Far East. Before deciding to send troops, the army's intelligence personnel squandered 6 million yen in military expenditures to collect intelligence.  Such a huge amount is rare in the intelligence community around the world.  Wang Xueqian will definitely not be as generous as the top brass of the Japanese army, but for Dai Li, the military expenditures and equipment he specially approved from Wang Xueqian were an astronomical sum for the Republic of China.  In the Republic of China, Dai Li's intelligence agency was also top-notch, and its expenses were staggeringly huge.  When spending money, the big boss Wang Xueqian didn't say anything, but when it came time to do things, he pushed back and forth. Dai Li couldn't say anything anyway.  After much deliberation, it seemed that there was little hope of relying on a few men to dig out Qi Xieyuan's secrets in Shandong, so Dai Li decided to take action himself.  But this was the first time he had received such a difficult task. It was almost impossible to find out the agreement between the governor Qi Xieyuan and the Japanese. Even if people had been deployed in the governor's mansion, it would be difficult to do so.  But Dai Li felt that he had to go and be based in Jinan. Only in this way could he increase the success rate of his still very immature team.  And Wang Xueqian was not idle. He and the senior staff around him were constantly studying the possibility of sending troops to Shandong.  But the risk is very high, and this risk is not caused by Qi Xieyuan¡¯s military strength.  It is the uncertainty caused by the Japanese warships in Qingdao.  This cannot be explained clearly in just one or two sentences. The attitude of the Japanese is very unclear.  Don't look at the fact that at the mouth of the Yangtze River, the navy and air force practiced and built the British fleet. That was because the time, place and people were on the side of the Zhejiang Army. But it was different when going to Qingdao, there was definitely no support from aircraft.  Even if there is one, it is a seaplane and can only be used as an auxiliary work for reconnaissance.  It is impossible to build a land airport in northern Jiangsu that can allow fixed-wing fighter jets to take off. Not to mention the lack of time, Lu Yongxiang will not agree.  "If the Japanese navy suddenly intervenes, it will only take a few days for the Japanese fleets in Dalian, Incheon, and even Japan to reach the sea near Qingdao and block our army's supply lines from the sea. Even if we control Rizhao Port, Japan can still  Our logistics supply has caused a devastating blow. Just cruise the outer sea to achieve the goal, and our army has almost no means of counterattack. The landing army will become a lone force. " "The situation in Lianyungang is almost the same, even if the Japanese navy is unable to do so.  He knew the channel to enter the port, but he was able to control our army's route to the Yellow Sea, and the outcome was almost the same. "Jiang Baili knew the entire battle plan.  He actually did not think that Japan had any intention to participate in the war, but Wang Xueqian asked him to regard Japan's participation in the war as the number one imaginary enemy, so he had to consider it this way.  For the Zhejiang Army, there are only two landing locations, Lianyungang and Rizhao.  The former can reach the battlefield within one day via the section railway from Lianyungang to Xuzhou to reinforce Lu Yongxiang¡¯s main force.  But it doesn't mean much. Even if Qi Xieyuan gives up Xuzhou, he can retreat to Linyi.  Without annihilating Qi Xieyuan's main force, this war will become a tug-of-war, which will be beneficial to Qi Xieyuan, but very detrimental to the Zhejiang Army.  After all, it is a guest army fighting, and there will be a lot of trouble in logistics, supplies, and even marching.  Especially for the psychological pressure on soldiers, it is almost fatal.  The Zhejiang Army is not invincible. In the Republic of China, compared with other local armies, the Zhejiang Army's advantages were good equipment and sufficient training.  The biggest feature of the Zhejiang Army is its strong mobility.  But at the same time, it will alsoAuxiliary departments such as logistics bring greater pressure.  Supplies have become the most lethal lifeline of the Zhejiang Army.  After Jiang Baili finished speaking, he glanced at Wang Xueqian. The latter's expression did not change. He was also secretly puzzled. Why did Wang Xueqian question the purpose of sending troops to Shandong?  But from his standpoint, he had to give his own opinion: "My opinion is to stop this adventure." "This is difficult." Wang Xueqian stared at the map, but his thoughts were on the military at all, and he did not even look at Shandong.  piece.  He was worried about the Great Wall defense line, and he knew that Cao Kun's rule in Yanjing had entered a countdown.  Zhang Zuolin used another most effective method to completely remove Cao Kun from the political stage of the Republic of China, and then promoted Duan Qirui's rise to power.  For Zhang Zuolin, Duan Qirui was a puppet, and it was also his explanation to the Japanese.  In a word, the bad guys asked Duan Qirui to do it, and he wanted to see if he could break part of the agreement with the Japanese.  In fact, Zhang Zuolin's entry into the Pass was already a helpless path forced by the Kwantung Army.  Even if Fengjun enters the Pass, he may not be able to use force to unify the Republic of China.  Before him, Yuan Shikai and Duan Qirui both failed. Although he was a little conceited after occupying a high position, he was not yet ignorant of the heights of the world.  In fact, he was forced by the Japanese. Fengjun relied more and more on Japanese resources, but at the same time, Fengjun grew several times in just a few years.  It¡¯s like a factory taking a loan from a bank. What should I do if I don¡¯t have the money to repay it?  We can only draw a big pie and continue to borrow money from banks.  Entry into the customs was the pie that Zhang Zuolin drew for the Japanese, otherwise he would not be able to fulfill his promise to the Japanese.  Even if the lease period of Kanto State is extended, it will not be able to meet the capital and manpower invested by Japan.  Zhang Zuolin's Fengjun has actually entered a vicious cycle.  But he had to continue on the wrong path.  In fact, he didn't even want to extend the lease of Kanto State.  In four or five years, Dalian and Lushun and other places signed by Japan and the Qing Dynasty will be taken back.  "Procrastination is not the answer. The only way is to strengthen ourselves and make Japan fear its own strength."  ??And if the Republic of China is to be unified, the army will be too dispersed.  Especially heading west, the roads into Guanzhong and Xichuan were even more difficult. He had no intention of spreading his troops to every corner of the map of the Republic of China.  Therefore, Zhang Zuolin's goal should be two railways, the Lu-Han Railway and the Jin-Pu Railway.  I won¡¯t talk about the Lu-Han Railway, but along the Jin-Pu Railway, after Fengjun enters the customs, he will soon bear the brunt and become the target of Fengjun¡¯s attack.  Wang Xueqian needed a strong figure who could guard Shandong, and Ka advocated Lin's move south.  And Cao Shijie is undoubtedly a very ideal candidate.  Fighting against Shandong is not his goal, supporting Cao Shijie is his real goal.  But he couldn't express these speculations. Why could he see a future that no one else had seen?  What is the basis?  Without proof or proof, how could he confidently believe that Zhang Zuolin would fight all the way to Jinling along the Jinpu Line after entering the customs?  Since it cannot be explained from this aspect, Wang Xueqian can only explain it by Zhang Zuolin's repeated Zhili-Fengtian war: "Have you ever thought about why Zhang Zuolin lost consecutive battles but still consumed huge manpower and financial resources to enter the border?  ¡± This question seems simple, but it is not easy to explain.  Although Wen Yingxing felt that Wang Xueqian had other deep intentions, none of the senior military officials said anything. He could only start: "Is it possible that the personal conflict between him and Cao Kun caused the current situation? In addition, Zhang Zuolin has the idea of ??monopolizing power." "  On the surface, it is true. But digging deeper, I think there is an ulterior motive." Jiang Baili looked deeper. He was as confident as ever: "Fengjun has grown from 100,000 people to 300,000 people in just a few years.  The army, this is probably not something that the Northeast¡¯s finances can support. It is no secret that Zhang Zuolin is supported by the Japanese government. I am afraid that his entry is more because Japan wants to gain more benefits from China. "Wang Xueqian said in his heart.  There is a person who understands: "Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui cooperated, and Xu Shuzheng's role cannot be ignored. If Duan Qirui wants to come back, the prerequisite is the downfall of Cao Kun. And Xu Shuzheng even contacted Guangzhou and Zhejiang." "On the surface, he is  In order to prepare for Duan Qirui's comeback, this person has even served in Guangzhou and Northeast China, and now serves as the chief of staff of Fengjun. It seems that Xu Shuzheng's move is to prepare for Duan Qirui's comeback, but in fact Duan Qirui is in charge.  There is not much military power to rely on, and the only trump card is Lu Yongxiang. How can Lu Yongxiang fight against Fengjun? Duan Qirui will become Zhang Zuolin's puppet, and they are originally pro-Japanese, and Qi Xieyuan's relationship with Japan is also limited.  Very deep, once Zhang Zuolin enters the customs, going south is inevitable, so what can Japan gain from the war?"Shandong?" Jiang Baili continued to think along Wang Xueqian's idea. Although he thought it was unlikely, he couldn't help but think that Shandong might eventually become a victim of the outcome of the Zhili-Fengtian War.  Wang Xueqian struck while the railway was hot: "Even if this year's Zhili-Fengtian war still has no result, what about tomorrow? What about the year after tomorrow? Once the Fengjun army enters the pass, it is inevitable to go south to Shandong. When the time comes, Qi Xieyuan switches sides, and Lu Yongxiang is Duan Qirui's old subordinate.  The Zhejiang Army will have to withstand the pressure of the two top forces of the Republic of China. What if the Guangzhou Provisional Government is also added? It is hard to say whether the Zhejiang Army can survive and join Qi Xieyuan and join Zhang Zuolin before Fengjun enters the Pass.  Cao Kun will face a flanking attack from the north and the south, and it is only a matter of time before Zhizhi is defeated. "Using malice to speculate on malice can often lead to the facts closest to the truth.  And he did.  Although the difficulties were great, Wang Xueqian still stated his position that Shandong Governor Qi Xieyuan must leave.  And Lu Yongxiang's battle on the Xuzhou front line has been noisy, which makes Wang Xueqian worried that once the speculations come true, he will have no other choice but to become the leading force of the Northern Expedition.  Letting the Zhejiang army resist the armies of the Zhili, Fengjun and Anhui cliques is simply nonsense.  By then, not to mention Fengjun, even Sun Chuanfang and others will join the ranks of attacking the Zhejiang Army, and even Chen Guangyuan will not be idle.  The tone has been set here at the military conference.  But even the extremely smart Jiang Baili didn¡¯t know that Wang Xueqian¡¯s intention to transport part of the Zhejiang army to the Shandong battlefield was not to eliminate Qi Xieyuan¡¯s main force. Fighting Qi Xieyuan was not his purpose, but organizing Feng¡¯s army to go south was his real purpose.  If a war breaks out on the banks of the Yangtze River or in Zhejiang, the harm to Zhejiang will be devastating.  Today¡¯s Zhejiang is at a critical moment of industrialization, and any war may put all efforts in vain.  Therefore, Wang Xueqian firmly believes that the war is still in other people's territory, and the farther away from Zhejiang, the better.  The tone has been set, and Zhejiang's military leaders have to consider a question: how to organize Fengjun's march south.  Because of Wang Xueqian¡¯s guidance, they have overlooked an issue. Zhejiang can actually rely on Zhang Zuolin!  Jiang Baili and other smart people who saw the problem were arrogant and arrogant, so naturally they would not say anything.  Those who do not see this way out can only follow the direction guided by Wang Xueqian and ponder it.  On the other hand, after Dai Li handed over the coordination power in Zhejiang to his brother-in-law Zhang Guanfu, he took a group of cronies disguised as merchants and went to Shandong, starting from the Jinpu line.  When the train passed Xuzhou, Dai Li sat at the window and was surprised to find that there was no military column at Xuzhou Station.  This situation made Dai Li nervous. Taking advantage of the time when the train stopped at the station to refill water, Dai Li walked around the platform. After returning to the car, he couldn't help cursing: "These guys are getting more and more outrageous.  ¡± It turns out that the Xuzhou War seemed to be a violent outbreak.  But neither Qi Xieyuan nor Lu Yongxiang has any plans to fight.  After Dai Li got off the platform, he paid a worker on the platform to get first-hand information.  No military train has passed by Xuzhou Railway Station for more than a week.  There was no sign of an army massing, and the troops fighting on the front lines had long since left.  The emergence of this news gave Dai Li a greater estimate of the difficulty of the trip to Shandong.  ¡°Obviously Qi Xieyuan and Lu Yongxiang have achieved a certain degree of tacit understanding in some aspects, and they deliberately ignored Wang Xueqian.  In other words, the cooperation between the Anhui clique and the Zhejiang army is in name only.
