Li Changgeng knew that Xu Shuzheng regained the troops of Outer Mongolia in October 1919, and the only troops he used was the first border defense brigade of the participating troops at that time (although China did not send troops in the European war, he took the opportunity to arm several troops). Therefore, it was enough to regain the troops of Outer Mongolia Heilongjiang, and there was no need to win over Zhang Zuolin. But his purpose also included regaining all the territory within the Treaty of Nebuchu. In this way, even if all the land could be regained, there would not be enough troops to defend it, so he had to win over Zhang Zuolin and other brothers.

Li Changgeng pointed to the sand table and said, "This is Outer Mongolia. A group of native chickens and tiles are not enough to worry about it. The cavalry brigade of Heilongjiang sent troops to beat them up. We cannot look at the grassland on the ground to recover Outer Mongolia. Do you know that under the grassland in Outer Mongolia, according to the report of my exploration team, there are now more than 80 minerals such as copper, molybdenum, gold, silver, lead, zinc, rare earths, iron, fluorite, phosphorus, coal, gypsum, etc. Among them, the coal reserves are about 50-152 billion tons; iron 2 billion tons; phosphorus 200 million tons; fluorite reserves are about 8 million tons; copper 8 million tons; molybdenum 240,000 tons; zinc 60,000 tons; silver 7,000 tons; gold 3,000 tons; oil 1.5 billion barrels. Erdente's copper-molybdenum ore has been listed as one of the top ten copper-molybdenum ores in the world, ranking first in Asia.

The coal production potential of Outer Mongolia in the South Gobi region is 5 billion tons. Among them, 1.5 billion tons are coking coal and 3.5 billion tons are coal for steam boilers, with a calorific value of 5,000-5,500 kcal/kg. After mining, 20 million tons of raw coal can be produced every year. The coal seam is buried 16 meters deep and the thickness is 3-30 meters. The ratio of topsoil to coal is 3.6 cubic meters: 1 ton of coal. This means that the difficulty and cost of mining coal are negligible. Do several brothers know what this means? China has lacked copper since ancient times, but now the importance of industrial copper metal is no less than that of steel."

Li Changgeng's words made Zhang Zuolin and others feel heartbroken. They are not sure about what level of Li Changgen leads troops to fight, but they are truly convinced of Li Changgeng's ability to make money. Not to mention anything else, just in the past three years, their brothers made money with Li Changgeng, and that person doesn't have a share of millions of taels. In the past three years, under the leadership of Li Changgeng, with the convenience of the Siberian Railway, countless materials have been transported to Europe. As more and more people come into contact with the industry, these people's eyes are no longer as rustic as before. The awareness of mineral resources has increased to a point of paranoidness!

Tang Yulin couldn't help but say, "Old brother, just say what to do? Isn't it just a Mongolian tarzi? My old Tang will definitely flatten you!"

Looking at Tang Yulin's bandit-like ruthlessness, Li Changgeng knew that it was almost done to fool him, so he had to say something real. "Haha, the fourth brother can't use you to fight Mongolia, so don't be afraid that the old brother will worry about your collection. In addition to Mongolia, there is also a big cake to share the accounts. There is also here. Russia invaded this territory of China after 1689. It is not as difficult as imagined to take down this super-large territory. Now this territory is not under the jurisdiction of the Soviet Union. A Far Eastern Republic was established here. As long as we face the railway line and fight there, it is our territory.

In order to ensure the smoothness of this war and the fair distribution of the interests of the war, I plan to establish a Far East Mining Corporation. At that time, our brothers will own 51% of the shares, and the rest will be invested in the newly established stock market, and part of it will be distributed to the meritorious soldiers, and the rest will be exchanged for funds and foreign capital support!

The best time window to capture the Far East is now. In the old saying, there is no store after passing this village. The Far East Republic is now like Outer Mongolia. There is no decent military weapons and equipment. They are all garrisons of the joint defense team. The difficulty and intensity of the war are not much, but the difficulty is how to defend this territory that is half of the country!”

Zhang Zuolin stared at the sand table with his eyes tightly, and from time to time he calculated that the sand table not only marked the terrain and political districts in detail, but also marked the number of troops garrisons in various places. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Brother, are you talking about how to fight brothers?"

When Li Changgeng heard Zhang Zuolin's question, he knew that he had made up his mind, "Brother Seven, I will send out a division's strength in Suifenhe. You will send out two divisions from Yanji, Jilin. We will take Vladivostok as fast as possible with the strength of three divisions and defend the eastern end of the Siberian Railway. This is the Russian Far East estuary and one of our most important goals in this battle. With this natural military port, we can safely form a navy. Then, with the strength of the two divisions, we will advance westward along the Siberian Railway!

And we are sending three divisions of troops from Heilongjiang, sending troops from Harbin along the Dongqing Railway to Manzhouli, and then breaking the pass and advancing towards Chita along the Siberian Railway. As long as we two can join forces to capture Chita, our dispatch will be considered successful. But this is not the best defense location. As long as we can push the army to the 100-kilometer area of ​​the Siberian Railway around Lake Baikal, we will be on the most favorable military and geographical conditions, and we can be said to be able to attack and retreat to defend. The land in the Far East will permanently return to the revenge of the Chinese nation. Not to mention economic interests, just relying on this achievement of reclaiming the homeland, our brothers will be enough to write to the history of the Chinese nation. What do you think?”

After hearing Li Changgeng talk about Zhang Zuoxiang, Zhang Jinghui, Sun Liechen, Tang Yulin, and others were all focused on Zhang Zuolin. Zhang Zuolin touched his beard and kept walking around the sand table. After a while, he stopped in front of the sand table to ponder for a while, and suddenly punched the edge of the sand table, "Damn his grandma, bet this, just like the old brother said, there will be no store after passing this village. I'm sorry, I won't bet on the Heavenly King."

"Haha, Brother Qi said it well. This is called Tianyu not taking it, but he was harmed. Please see, if the Soviet Union recovers, and with the Siberian Railway, which was completely completed in 1916, it will continue to transport population and urban construction to the Far East. In less than ten years, our entire Northeast will be threatened by the Soviet Union's force. Only when we defend this hundred kilometers of railway around the Baikal Railway is equivalent to locking the Soviet Union's throat in the east.

Now that the Soviet Union is controlled by the Bolshevik Party, it has aroused the extreme vigilance of the Western powers. To some extent, the great powers will strictly block the Soviet Union. In that case, without external supplies, the weak Soviet Union will not be able to raise its strength even if we want to counterattack."

Zhang Zuolin looked at the sand table again, pointed to a blue line from Heilongjiang to Boli Temple Street and said, "What does this mean?"

"Brother Seven forgot about the Heilongjiang River Defense Fleet that Geng started to form three years ago?"

"Haha, it seems that you had this idea three years ago! It was a pity that the Russians foolishly helped you buy warships from the United States in the name of their participation in the war. I advised you to make this too much money, but I didn't expect you to be waiting here?"

"Didn't Brother Qi also set up a small fleet in Yingkou? Do you have no other ideas? For example, Lushun?"

"His grandma is a bear land. The little Japanese controls the Lushun and South Manchuria Railway, which is equivalent to hanging a knife on my Fengtian's heart. If I, Lao Zhang, don't control such a small fleet in Yingkou, the little Japanese will say that the knife will fall whenever it enters."

"The seventh brother is very worried. The Middle East Railway is now in my hands. Now the Russians can't make any waves in my hands. As for the little Japanese, they have picked up a big advantage in the European war. At this time, they are digesting the fruits of victory. Let's stop thinking about it. The little Japanese navy is really there, but can the South Manchuria Railway think of some solutions? It's better to take back the sovereignty first. At worst, it's okay to spend money to redeem it. Now that we are about to fight, I'm still relieved to Shanhaiguan, because I'm afraid that the little Japanese will be dishonest and it will be difficult for us to do something about the monsters. Jiansheng, what do you two think about it?"

Li Changgeng looked at his two men with contemplative staff, and his heart was so beautiful, "Yuan Fang, what do you think I brought the chief of staff of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party under his command."
