Chapter 118 Attacked

Although Wang Yongjiang is more talented than others, he is actually a very simple person. When Lao Zhang reused him, he followed the belief that a scholar will die for his bosom friend, and he worked wholeheartedly without caring about difficulties at all.

He proposed that rectification of officialdom and the clearing of land and land were offensive matters. Most of the officials in Fengtian were left over from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. They were greedy and had extremely poor ability to do things. They had to be rectified. However, these officials did not work alone. They had intricate relationships.

, one move affects the whole body, and the rectification of officialdom is undoubtedly an impact on the entire conservative officialdom.

As for clearing the land, it is even more offensive. China is an agricultural society with thousands of years of tradition. The landlord class is the backbone of this society. For many years, these landlords have been keen on annexing land while hiding a large amount of land.

For the country, this will undoubtedly reduce the country’s tax revenue.

Therefore, in all dynasties, there have been measures to clear land ownership. No matter whether it is successful or not, it will always be met with a desperate counterattack by the landlord group. After all, people will be cut off from money, such as killing their parents. Wang Yongjiang put forward this suggestion, and he undoubtedly stood on the side of the entire society.

On the opposite side of the landlord group.

Of course, Zhang Tinglan also knows that clearing the land is something that must be done, not only to increase tax revenue, but more importantly, to pay taxes according to the land, which can ensure a kind of fairness and alleviate social conflicts. This is particularly important. The three northeastern provinces are already chaotic enough.

, various conflicts are intertwined, and if there is another quarrel between landlords and farmers, it will be completely out of control.

Therefore, despite the huge resistance, Zhang Tinglan is still very supportive, and he also believes that Wang Yongjiang has the ability to solve this problem.

"The administration of officials is unclear and the local government is unstable. Rectifying the administration of officials is the next most important task. All officials must be inspected, including low-level officials. All those who have serious corruption and malfeasance in their duties must be eliminated, and others must also be inspected.

After passing the assessment, only if you pass it can you continue to be an official and have priority opportunities for promotion."

Since the establishment of the imperial examination system, China has begun to use examinations to select officials, which is far ahead of Western countries. However, there is also a fatal problem, that is, only officials have to pass the examination and have real contact with the people at the bottom, but the petty officials who handle specific affairs do not.

After passing the exam, he was treated as a pariah.

Therefore, these petty officials are often the main force who bully the people, take bribes and bend the law. Although they are not big in size, they cannot stand up to their large numbers and the harm is even greater. This time, Wang Yongjiang directly regarded the officials as one. Using a unified evaluation mechanism, the calculation

Getting up is also a big initiative.

If it can be fully implemented, Fengtian's officialdom will definitely be greatly improved. These people present are military leaders, and they don't care about rectifying the officials, but they can also hear Zhang Zuolin's military spirit for reform.

"This time for the official evaluation, the effectiveness of clearing the acres is one of the most important criteria. Now that the grain has been collected, the common people have begun to prepare for winter. If the land is sorted out at this time, the land tax will be increased a lot next year. Fengtian's

Financial pressure can also be greatly alleviated.”

"As for the issue of suppressing bandits, it is related to local security. Without good security, nothing can be done, so this must also be taken seriously."

After Wang Yongjiang finished speaking, Zhang Zuolin took over the words: "We are all from the green forest, and we are no strangers to suppressing bandits. Some people are forced by the government to rebel against the people, and some people have no way out. As long as such bandits can change their evil ways and return to the right way, we will be punished."

Don’t kill them all if you have a way to survive. There is only one thing that you must not let go, and that is the Mongolian bandits who are harassing the border. These guys do all kinds of evil, they can be killed but not kept!"

Over the years, Zhang Zuolin had wiped out both tough bandits like Du Lisan and Mongolian bandits like Tao Ketaohu. Relatively speaking, Zhang Zuolin was more disgusted with the murderous Mongolian bandits and was more ruthless in his killings.

In fact, most of these Mongolian bandits were supported by Tsarist Russia and acted as thugs of Tsarist Russia to help the Russians split Outer Mongolia. Zhang Tinglan also advocated resolute killing of these Mongolian bandits and was not polite at all.

After Lao Zhang had finished explaining the matter, everyone dispersed with their own thoughts. The smart people have noticed that this time is different from the past. Zhang Zuolin is no longer a division commander, he is a prince of one side, and his considerations are more comprehensive.

, these old brothers who only know how to fight and kill have fewer and fewer opportunities to speak as they get older. However, state-governing talents like Wang Yongjiang have more and more opportunities to show off, and they are more valued by Zhang Zuolin.

"Military generals conquer the world, and civilian officials rule the world. This has been the truth since ancient times. But it feels really uncomfortable to hand over the world you conquered to others!"

"Dad, do you still remember the layout on the stage? The upper gate is written with the name "General", and the lower gate is written with "Xiang". You are also called the Prime Minister. Whether I am conquering the world or ruling the world, I can't live without you!"

"You brat, if you dare to joke about your father's name, I'm going to beat you!" Zhang Zuoxiang said, grabbing the cigarette pouch and hitting Zhang Tinglan on the head.

"Ting Lan, Yu Ting specifically talked about the suppression of bandits at the end. I guess there will be action during this period. Every autumn and winter, the people take back the food and have food in their homes. The bandits are just about to rob the food for the winter.

It just so happens that we will be dispatched frequently."

Having said this, Zhang Zuoxiang asked again: "Tinglan, are you confident in your new recruits? If possible, you might as well practice with these bandits. After all, soldiers are real warriors only if they have seen blood. Otherwise, they are all

It’s a new recruit!”

"Dad, I've had this idea for a long time. Training alone may not produce a strong army. Actual combat is the best whetstone."

"If you have an idea, you must be prepared. Don't let the bandits be eliminated instead of being plotted by others."

"Dad, can I go with big brother?" Zhang Tingshu has always been a militant. Usually Zhang Tinglan trains new recruits. He will follow the training as soon as school is over. Although he is young, he can keep up with the rhythm and will hardly fall behind, which shows that he

of hard work.

"Children, why are you joining in the fun? You should study hard first. The martial arts class will start in the new year. You can go in and study for a few years, and then you can think about going to the battlefield!"

"Dad, I'm not a kid anymore, and my shooting skills are better than my elder brother's!"

When it comes to marksmanship, Zhang Tinglan's face turned slightly red. He is indeed not as good as his second brother, not even Zhang Xueliang. He can only be regarded as average among the new army. Zhang Tinglan is actually reflecting on it. If he hadn't time traveled through this

A sharp weapon, he is just like a middle-aged person, and he will be mediocre all his life.

Zhang Zuoxiang saw Zhang Tingshu's eagerness to try, thought for a while and nodded: "Tingshu, you can go, but you have to follow your elder brother every step of the way!"

"Dad, don't worry, I will protect my eldest brother!"

Before Zhang Tingshu finished speaking, he was hit on the forehead: "Brother, why did you hit me?"

"Listen up, dad promises you. You haven't passed my test yet. If I'm unhappy and just shake my head like this, you can just study at home and study!"

Zhang Zuoxiang's judgment was absolutely correct. Not five days later, news came from the Taonan area that a large number of Mongolian bandits were discovered. The leader was Babu Zabu.

This Babuzabu was also a stubborn Mongolian bandit. As early as the Russo-Japanese War, Babuzabu had defected to the Japanese and served as a transport team for the Japanese. After the Revolution of 1911, Babuzabu again

He ran to Outer Mongolia and colluded with the Russians and Outer Mongolian nobles in an attempt to achieve independence.

In the period that followed, Babuzabu led his men to plunder and bring trouble to one party. Not long ago, Beiyang finally made up his mind to wipe out this bandit. Duolun garrison envoy Xiao Liangchen led his troops to defeat Babuzabu.

Buzabu's main force, this guy was lucky enough to survive and fled to Taonan and Hailar.

After Zhang Tinglan got the news, he was immediately eager to give it a try. If he wanted to sharpen his sword with ordinary bandits, Zhang Tinglan would still look down on it. Being able to compete with the famous Mongolian bandits just showed his ability. At this time, Lao Zhang asked someone to come to Zhang Tinglan, and Zhang Tinglan suddenly

I went to see Zhang Zuolin excitedly.

"Tinglan, the bandits are invading the border. Are you interested in going over there and killing them?"

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, it is my duty to do my humble duty!"

After Zhang Zuolin received the report, he called Zhang Tinglan over and prepared to arrange for him to go to Taonan to suppress the bandits.

"Speaking of the fact that your men are all new soldiers, I'm really worried about dealing with tough bandits like Babu Zabu. However, Wu Datou is responsible for guarding Taonan, and his cavalry is still very powerful. There are only a few

The Mongolian bandits can't get any benefits. I asked you to go there not to fight, but to express my condolences to Wu Junsheng for me, and by the way, give him some New Year's goods and keep in touch with him!"

When Zhang Tinglan heard this, she realized that Lao Zhang just wanted to be a messenger and was not really fighting a war. She was immediately a little disappointed.

"Tinglan, don't take it seriously. In Fengtian, apart from me and Feng Delin, Wu Datou is the most powerful. Even if you can't pull him over, you can't let others take advantage of it, so you go there this time.

Pay attention to your sense of proportion."

"Seventh Uncle, do you mean to show both kindness and strength?"

"Yes, even though Wu Junsheng appears rude, he is actually extremely cunning. If you let him see our strong military and financial resources, I believe he will make the right choice. In addition, let Xiao Liuzi go with you, you two

It's just right for a nephew to look at his uncle."

A good anti-bandit operation turned into visiting relatives and friends, plus showing off force. Although Zhang Tinglan was a little reluctant, he also knew the importance of this matter. Wu Junsheng's status among the Feng clique was second only to Zhang Zuolin. If he could

Winning him over is of great significance for Zhang Zuolin to control the overall situation of Fengtian.

Zhang Tinglan accepted the mission. He selected a thousand soldiers from the second regiment, took the necessary supplies and gifts to Wu Junsheng, and left Fengtian in a mighty manner and went straight to Taonan. Zhang Xueliang and

Zhang Tingshu also went with him.

They first took the train to Liaoyuan. They could have gone straight to Taonan, but Zhang Tinglan suddenly wanted to use this rare opportunity to train his troops. Although they were not prepared to fight with real swords and guns, they could also conduct long-distance training to let the soldiers find the opportunity for war.

Feel.

Therefore, Zhang Tinglan ordered everyone to get off the train and march on two legs for the remaining period. In full compliance with the requirements of the battle, the soldiers should be prepared for battle, send sentries from a distance, and conduct careful reconnaissance without missing any details.

When they walked to an open area, Zhang Tinglan also asked to simulate an enemy attack to train the soldiers' resilience. They walked for two days in a row. Although they did not encounter bandits, they killed a few wolves. It was considered a feast for the soldiers.

I also gradually started to feel a little bit better.

It gets dark very early in the winter in the north, and it's already dark at four or five o'clock in the afternoon. The soldiers who have been walking for a day skillfully set up tents, prepare food, and rest. This place is only two days away from Taonan, and Zhang Tinglan's mind keeps thinking.

Thinking about how to win over Wu Junsheng.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent.

"Report to the captain, a group of cavalry is rushing towards this side quickly, numbering close to a thousand people!"

Zhang Tinglan frowned immediately. It was probably not a good thing to do it in the middle of the night.

"Pass my order to all soldiers to get up immediately, pull out all the machine guns and artillery, and prepare for battle!"

After Zhang Tinglan's order was conveyed, the results of this period of rigorous training soon showed. Although these soldiers encountered this situation for the first time, they were quickly prepared. At this time, they were able to

Hearing the rapid sound of horse hooves, a group of cavalry in colorful clothes rushed over. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
