Zhang Tinglan has done so many things and worked so hard for Zhang Zuolin. Without Zhang Tinglan's troubles, the 27th Division would still look like a beggar and not be as prosperous as it is.
It was precisely through smuggling that the 27th Division was basically equipped with water rifles, equipped with heavy machine guns, and set up a heavy artillery battalion. It was definitely second to none among all local troops. In addition, it also solved the shortage of funds.
, successfully tied all Fengtian businessmen to the battlefield vehicle of the 27th Division, and took the official bank account. Lao Zhang has not worried about money during this period.
Also, he introduced Wang Yongjiang. Although he didn’t have much contact with him, Lao Zhang knew that he was a rare talent.
One after another, one after another, they are all real achievements. Lao Zhang knows them all in his heart. If he wants to be a good leader, the most important thing is to make rewards and punishments clear. Those who have merit should be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes should be punished.
If the water in your bowl is level, otherwise no one will believe you, and where will the prestige come from?
Zhang Tinglan must reward him, but how to reward him has become a worry for Lao Zhang. With his merit and ability, it is perfectly fine to stand alone, but a bunch of uncles and uncles stand in the way and rashly rise to high positions, which must be in the hearts of the older generation.
Not even comfortable.
Moreover, Zhang Zuolin had his own little tricks. Zhang Tinglan was so capable, and Zhang Zuoxiang was enough to make Lao Zhang feel threatened. After thinking about it, Lao Zhang decided to place Zhang Tinglan in the army, although becoming an officer would accelerate the cultivation of his own power.
However, promotions in the army are regular. At least Zhang Tinglan had to work for several years before he could reach a high position. Lao Zhang could also use this time to carefully observe his nephew to see if he could be reused.
It was originally a good idea, but unexpectedly someone objected, and Lao Zhang frowned.
"Fourth brother, Tinglan is our nephew. He has made a lot of achievements during this period. Let him practice and practice. When we get old, we will point at these children. Do you have any objections?"
Tang Yulin's face was gloomy, and he shook his big head and said: "Seventh Master, there are only so many troops, and the official positions are also a carrot and a pit. How many old brothers have not been promoted. Is it appropriate to arrange for a junior to be the leader? What should others think?
Besides, we need to train young people. I agree, but we can’t just train Zhang Zuoxiang’s son. I have two sons, Jing Hui has another son, plus Xiao Liuzi. These children should all be given a chance!”
Listening to Tang Yulin's words, several people present curled their lips. His two sons were famous villains and street bullies. They did not do business and only loved making trouble. As for Zhang Jinghui's sons, they could not hold up the wall.
, not very old. But he also has a lot of problems. He even smokes opium and plays with women. He is not a good person.
Although I was dismissive of Tang Yulin's words, it also reminded everyone that among the younger generation in Fengjun, Zhang Tinglan was the only one who rose to prominence early, while the other children were still complete brats. Therefore, everyone looked at Zhang Zuoxiang a little differently.
He still has a good way of teaching his children!
"Children need to be trained. After a while, I plan to reopen the martial arts hall and let them all go in to learn, and Tinglan is no exception. However, Tinglan has done a good job during this period and has put in a lot of hard work. Give a regimental leader a little
Nothing is too much!”
"Not too much? What did he do? How come I, a dignified deputy division commander, don't know anything about it?"
"Fourth brother, the matter Tinglan is responsible for is of great importance and has wide implications. I didn't tell you!"
Tang Yulin sneered: "Master Qi, I understand, you think Lao Tang is useless. In the past, we brothers talked about everything, but now you don't come to me for anything, and I, the brigade commander, are an eyesore.
You might as well remove me!"
In fact, Tang Yulin got into trouble not once or twice. Every time it involved personnel appointments, Tang Yulin would always make a fuss. Especially this time, Lao Tang felt even more uncomfortable. In the past, he had to discuss all matters big and small with him. During this time,
Since then, he has been basically excluded from the decision-making circle, so it's strange that he can feel balanced.
Lao Zhang was equally unhappy. Whether it was about Russian smuggling, the construction of the North Market, or supporting commercial development, until he competed with the Japanese again and again, there was nothing that Tang Yulin could participate in, and what could be discussed with him?
ah!
Conquering a country relies on military generals, and defending a country requires advisers. Lao Zhang is now transforming from a general to a prince, and the things he is dealing with are becoming more and more complicated. How can Tang Yulin do that with his level? Tell him not only that he can't help
, and there is also the risk of leakage.
"Fourth Brother, there are some things that are really not suitable for you to participate in. Just lead the troops well and train the soldiers well. In the future, you will have to rely on Fourth Brother to charge into battle!"
"Charge in front, and reward after deeds. What's the truth?" Tang Yulin muttered a few words, full of complaints, but he couldn't change Zhang Zuolin's opinion, so he could only leave the Tiger Hall angrily.
.When he walked out of the handsome man's house, Lao Tang had a strange look in his eyes and pulled his sleeves tightly. There was a secret letter hidden in his sleeves!
"Seventh uncle, after this incident, Yuan Shikai will also understand that Duan Zhigui cannot control Fengtian, and everything depends on you. But I am still hesitant. The throne of governor is actually within reach. I think it only needs to add one more bargaining chip.
Got it!"
"Tell me about it. If it makes sense, it will prove that this group leader did not give you for nothing!"
"Look what you said, whether you get promoted or not, shouldn't I always give you advice?" Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "This time the Japanese are causing a rice commotion. From this name, I know that the Japanese have not enough food to eat. I
I heard that the Japanese government has been purchasing grain at low prices in North Korea in order to quell the domestic unrest. It has also begun purchasing grain in the Northeast. Let's just send a favor and help the Japanese purchase grain. To ease the relationship, as long as the Japanese don't
If you oppose your appointment as governor, you will not be able to retain this position!"
From the bottom of his heart, Zhang Tinglan wished that all the Japanese would starve to death, but this was obviously unrealistic. Since the rice riots were detonated by Zhang Tinglan in advance, the conditions in all aspects were immature, and the lethality was far less than that in history. The Japanese soon
Recover.
Moreover, if the Japanese are really hungry and crazy, they may not send troops to rob the three northeastern provinces. With the current strength of the Fengjun army, they simply cannot stop them.
In addition, the Japanese also launched acquisitions. Since they couldn't stop it, they simply gave it to Japan as a favor.
"Uncle Seven, you can propose to Japan that we purchase grain and then sell it to Japan at a 10% discount. The Japanese people who are in trouble will definitely thank you, and then we can use newspapers to publicize it.
It will be difficult for the Japanese to interfere with your ascending to the throne of governor!"
Lao Zhang has a heroic appearance, so naturally he will not be emotional. He has already agreed with this method in his heart, but he is still reluctant on the lips.
"These little devils have tormented us so much, and we still have to go up the pole, give them discounts, and give them food. Why don't these beasts starve to death!"
"Cheap food does not necessarily mean delicious food. What we have to do is to take this opportunity to control the grain trade. From now on, the food in the three northeastern provinces will have to pass through our hands before it can be exported. The most valuable thing in the three northeastern provinces is not grain, not
Ginseng, but soybeans! When we are strong enough, we will expand the scale of the grain company and turn it into an agricultural products export company to regain the right to export soybeans."
During the Republic of China, soybeans from the Northeast were definitely considered a top product. The export volume accounted for about 90% of the world's exports, which was enough to form a monopoly. Every year, there was a profit of 400 to 500 million yuan, which was absolutely an astronomical figure.
But it is a pity that after the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese moved the oil industry center from Yingkou to Dalian, which was under Japan's control. From then on, the people in the Northeast became workers for the Japanese. They worked hard, but
Watching Japan monopolize soybean oil exports and reaping huge profits, I can only earn a hard-earned penny.
This is what Zhang Tinglan learned after coming to this time and space, and she became more and more resentful. The wealth that Japan robbed from China will be turned into machine guns, cannons, aircraft and tanks. Twenty years later, the Japanese will use these weapons.
, massacred the Chinese people, and tens of millions of compatriots died tragically, which became the deepest wound in the heart of every Chinese.
Now that we have reached this era, we cannot sit back and watch this situation continue. Zhang Tinglan has already set his sights on soybeans. However, because the profits are so huge, Japan will definitely go crazy if he rashly touches this piece of fat, so Zhang Tinglan can only act in a roundabout way.
, starting from controlling food.
Lao Zhang patted Zhang Tinglan on the shoulder: "Do things carefully and don't care what Tang Yulin thinks. These long-term plans are not something he can understand. The seventh uncle will never treat you badly!"
Lao Zhang is also a temperamental person. Tang Yulin had just made trouble, and no one else would be in a good mood. As a result, Zhang Tinglan not only did not complain to him, but also took the initiative to help plan the position of governor and plan for future economic development. Everything was done by him.
How could Lao Zhang not be moved by what he cared about the most?
After bidding farewell to Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Tinglan returned to the Independent Brigade and officially took office. Now, except for the artillery battalion, there are still more than half gaps in other troops in the Independent Brigade, and they have to continue to recruit troops. However, Zhang Tinglan couldn't wait any longer, and he requested that the troops be recruited as soon as possible.
The existing recruits are trained.
Starting from the internal affairs of the queue, there are strict requirements for everything. There must be uniform standards for eating, washing, speaking, sitting and lying. We must train the laziness in these recruits and turn them into real combat soldiers.
The ideal is very good, but it is indeed not easy to train these new recruits. Even the most basic left and right cannot be distinguished clearly, and the queue is even more twisted. The instructor and Zhang Tinglan have both prepared a wooden stick. Whoever makes a mistake will not be punished.
If you show mercy, give me a stick.
While training on the school field, Yang Yuting suddenly came over. After a month of suppressing bandits, Yang Yuting's talents were officially recognized by Zhang Zuolin. These days, he often went in and out of the commander's house to discuss army affairs with Lao Zhang. He was very busy.
.
"Mr. Linge, why do you have time to see me? Didn't you go to the Marshal's Mansion?"
"I'm sorry, what you said is wrong. I'm still the commander of the heavy artillery battalion. I'm a serious member of the Independent Brigade. I want to discuss something with you, the commander of the regiment. Is there any problem?"
While talking, Yang Yuting pulled Zhang Tinglan and whispered: "We fought with the Japanese. During this time, I have been reflecting on it. Although we won, the gap between us and the Japanese soldiers is too big. Let me sum up something. , please help me take a look!"
