Lao Zhang started his career with guns, so he also had the strictest control over the troops. All the military and police in Fengtian were in the hands of Zhang Zuolin, except for one troop, which was the reinforcement brought by Duan Zhigui when he came to Fengtian.
group.
This unit is the elite soldiers of Beiyang and is also very well-equipped. Lao Yuan gave this unit to Duan Zhigui to embolden his godson and to intimidate Zhang Zuolin. However, it turned out that Lao Yuan had made the wrong idea. Although Duan Zhigui had
They had a strong military force, but they didn't know how to use it. Soon this reinforced group became just a decoration.
After all, the army cannot just be placed there like a vase. The army needs to eat and drink. The four thousand people need to be paid and trained. Especially in the winter, the soldiers need to be provided with winter clothing.
Most of these soldiers are from Henan and Hebei. They have never experienced the winter in the Northeast. When the northwest wind blows and the snow falls, these people can't stand it. They all asked Duan Zhigui to give them winter clothes, and some
The soldiers clamored to go back to the pass and not suffer the consequences outside the pass.
Duan Zhigui was really immersed in the excitement of his godfather's ascension to the throne at this time. He was looking forward to promotion. Moreover, after being ignored by Lao Zhang, he didn't have much money on hand. However, he had many places to spend money, and he still had to go there.
Beijing sent money, so it only gave 5,000 yuan and sent these soldiers away like beggars.
The Beiyang soldiers who were short of food and clothing even tore up Duan Zhigui's ancestral grave. The brothers were here to protect you, but when they arrived in Fengtian, Duan Zhigui left them alone. Fengjun is now well-fed and well-clothed, and everyone has money in their pockets.
, they could also buy New Year's goods for their families, but they were starving. After all, Beiyang was the serious Central Army, while Fengjun was just a local army. As a result, the gap between the two sides was so big that no one could feel balanced.
They couldn't find Duan Zhigui and didn't dare to go to Zhang Zuolin, so they could only vent their anger on these businessmen and extort some money from them to improve their lives. They happened to hear that Minsheng Department Store was very prosperous, so a total of five Beiyang soldiers came here.
The layout of Minsheng Department Store is similar to that of later generations, but since there is no computer, it is impossible to scan the code to collect money. Therefore, a relatively primitive method is adopted. Each product has a wooden label with the price written on it, and then the cashier uses
According to the abacus calculation, the number of goods now is far less than that of later generations. Therefore, it can be dealt with.
This kind of label is not the first time. Many theaters charge based on time. Each person listening to the opera holds a piece of wood. A time is recorded when entering and a time when coming out. The fee is based on the length of time. If the actors are not good enough, many audiences will
I ran out to rest for a while, then went in to listen to my favorite actor.
Minsheng also borrowed this kind of thing. In fact, Zhang Tinglan also doubted whether it was possible to build a supermarket without the help of a computer system at the beginning. However, various problems were solved one after another, proving that it was completely feasible.
In fact, the world's first supermarket appeared in the United States in 1952. At that time, computers were far from popular, and supermarket shopping was largely an innovation of a concept.
Several Beiyang soldiers ran to the cashier area and made a fuss, leaving price tags and abacus beads all over the floor. The scene was chaotic. Security guards and police all ran over and surrounded the troublemaking Beiyang soldiers. Zhang Tinglan also rushed over at this time.
come over.
These guys openly came to his place to cause trouble, and Zhang Tinglan was naturally furious.
"Brothers, you all work as soldiers and know military rules and disciplines. If you come here to cause trouble, aren't you afraid of punishment?"
"Don't talk to me about this. We are the Beiyang Army, do you know that? We were trained by His Majesty the Emperor himself. We are the Yulin Army. Who dares to control us!"
Zhang Tinglan sneered slightly: "A bunch of imperial guards who stole food and drink, smashed and looted shops, are really an embarrassment to His Majesty."
"Humph, we don't care whether we are embarrassed or not. I am short of food and drink. How can I let us starve to death? If the officials don't give it to us, we will rob it. If anyone dares to interfere with me, I will kill him."
When Zhang Tinglan saw how hooligans these guys looked, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He didn't bother to talk nonsense with these guys. He waved his hand and asked the guards behind him to take action. These people who protect Zhang Tinglan's safety were carefully selected.
Good hands and good kung fu.
It was no problem to deal with a few soldiers and gangsters, and they were all beaten to the ground very quickly. These guys were still not convinced, and yelled and cursed loudly, thinking that with Yuan Shikai's power, they could do whatever they wanted, but obviously they were wrong.
After all, Zhang Tinglan would not be frightened by them.
They were immediately tied up like rice dumplings and held captive.
"Master Zhang, these five guys are from the Beiyang Army. If you catch them, will there be any trouble?" Liu Shucheng asked worriedly.
"It's okay, don't worry, restore order here quickly, I'll go find Marshal Zhang to deal with it now."
Zhang Tinglan escorted the five Beiyang soldiers and quickly left the Minsheng Department Store. However, the news spread like wildfire that Fengjun had captured Beiyang people. Everyone was wondering whether this would trigger a contest between the two largest forces in Fengtian.
No bottom.
You must know that although Zhang Zuolin is powerful and a local leader in Fengtian, Emperor Yuan is standing behind those Beiyang troops. If old Yuan gets angry, everyone is not sure whether Zhang Zuolin can resist!
Soon the atmosphere in Fengtian became tense, and the news soon spread to the Beiyang Army barracks. Duan Zhigui did not care about them. The discipline of these soldiers was very poor and they had a lot of bad habits. Now that there is no restraint, they are even more lawless.
There were gamblers, smokers, and fights, and the general camp was in a mess. The regiment leader Lu Lin was originally responsible for leading the troops on a daily basis. However, Lu Lin also disliked that the conditions in Fengtian were too harsh.
The grown-up hired an actor, and he spent the whole day living in debauchery.
A good Beiyang elite army, but due to poor management, its combat effectiveness has plummeted, and a bunch of ruffians have even become a cancer. This means that one general is incompetent and has exhausted thousands of troops.
However, these Beiyang soldiers did not feel their degradation at all. On the contrary, they all kept their eyes above their heads. When Lao Yuan became emperor, they seemed to have become more lawless, arrogant and domineering as if the tide had risen.
As soon as they heard that a Beiyang soldier had been captured by Fengjun, this group of people immediately stopped working. They clamored to settle accounts with Fengjun and earn back face for Beiyang. More and more soldiers gathered. At this time, several other soldiers
When the battalion commander in charge saw that something big was going to happen, he had no choice but to find Lu Lin.
The regiment leader was enjoying himself in Wenrou Township. When he saw someone disturbing his peaceful dream, Lu Lin immediately turned his face. He came to the military camp angrily, just as the soldiers were about to go out to find Feng Jun.
people.
"Captain, we in Beiyang are being bullied. You must always make the decision for us. We, the emperor's personal soldiers, are now so miserable that we have no dignity to see other robes!"
Lu Lin also gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, no one in the world can bully our Beiyang Army. Whoever dares to arrest our people will have to pay the price."
Just as they were getting angry, guards suddenly ran over in a panic from outside.
"Your Majesty, Captain. Oh no, the Fengjun Brigade is coming this way. It seems they are going to surround our military camp."
After Lu Lin heard this, he suddenly shivered. The northwest wind blew over, along his neck, and directly penetrated the back of his heart. No matter how fierce the shouting was, Lu Lin was really afraid of Fengjun, especially Zhang Zuolin, who went to the meeting alone.
.Just his aura completely overpowered Lu Lin.
This guy thought that there wouldn't be much commotion about the affairs of a few soldiers, and Lao Zhang might not sell him face. However, what happened was beyond his expectation. Feng Jun actually sent out a large number of troops and surrounded the general camp.
Get up. Lu Lin's hands and feet were a little numb at the time. Of course, he couldn't sit still and wait for death. He immediately ordered the soldiers to get their weapons quickly and take precautions.
As a result, these soldiers were lazy and used to gambling. Now they were in chaos. Some people couldn't even find their military uniforms. Some people reluctantly found guns, but couldn't find ammunition. By the time they were almost ready,
As a result, I couldn't find my team again.
Just when they were in a chaotic mess, the sound of horse hooves from all sides of the military camp had already arrived. Five hundred cavalry were the first to surround the general camp, followed immediately by a regiment of infantry, followed by artillery battalions and machine gun troops.
Surrounded the Beiyang Army's barracks.
Zhang Zuolin, surrounded by Zhang Tinglan and others, appeared in front of the camp.
"Captain Lu, Marshal Zhang is here to inspect the military camp. Don't you still welcome him?"
When Lu Lin saw Zhang Zuolin coming over so aggressively, he felt something was wrong, but he didn't dare to offend Zhang Zuolin, so he had to bite the bullet and bring Lao Zhang in.
Zhang Zuolin glanced at the still messy Beiyang soldiers, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. These Beiyang soldiers couldn't keep up with the Feng army. Since he had enough funds and arms, Zhang Zuolin had worked hard on the training of the troops.
Therefore, after Fengtian received the mobilization order, he was able to take action so quickly and surrounded the Beiyang Army.
"Brothers, I, Lao Zhang, was wrongly loved by Your Majesty and was appointed Governor of Fengtian, responsible for managing the military affairs of a province. I must work hard to be worthy of Your Majesty's kindness and the support of the people. Just today, five soldiers ran away
He caused trouble in a department store and seriously disrupted social order. I think he must be severely punished to alert the morale of the military."
Lao Zhang has long understood the temperament of the people in Beiyang, who typically bully the weak and fear the strong, so Lao Zhang adopted the method of taking the lead and overwhelming the mountain.
Facing the powerful Zhang Zuolin, Lu Lin felt a little lacking in confidence, but he had to speak at this time.
"Dashuai Zhang, my brothers have been away from home for a long time, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. I feel a little dissatisfied. Let's vent a little. I don't think there is any need to pursue it too much!"
"No, military discipline is the strictest. There can be no bargaining. If you make a mistake, you will be punished." Zhang Zuolin waved his hand and had the soldiers brought over and pushed in front of everyone.
"These five people smashed and looted shops and disrupted social order. Their nature was very bad. Fortunately, they did not cause serious damage. Therefore, each of them was given thirty lashes and executed immediately!"
When Lao Zhang gave the order, soldiers pushed the five men to the front, picked up whips, and were about to execute them. At this time, all the Beiyang soldiers present were furious. Zhang Zuolin came directly to slap him in the face. They all looked at him in unison.
I asked Lu Lin, hoping he could show some attitude.
Lu Lin hesitated several times at this time. He really wanted to stop him, but when he saw the machine guns and cannons of the Fengjun soldiers, he couldn't help but feel frightened. If they had a head-on confrontation, they would definitely suffer a greater loss, so he could only turn his head away and pretend
Didn't see it.
The executioner waved the whip at this time, and every time the whip went down, there was a trace of blood. Soon the five soldiers were beaten until their parents screamed. The other Beiyang soldiers saw this, and they couldn't help but feel a bit like a rabbit.
They felt very uncomfortable, as if a whip had hit their hearts and faces. Some people lowered their heads in shame, while others clenched their fists and were indignant.
The thirty whips were quickly finished, and all five people collapsed on the ground. Lao Zhang waved his hand again, and more than a dozen large vehicles rushed to the military camp, and boxes of things were unloaded from the vehicles.
"Brothers, I heard that we have been owed a lot of military pay for a long time, and the New Year is almost here. I will bring you some New Year's goods as a New Year greeting!" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
