"What the fuck, this bullshit imperial edict is harder than paper, what use is it!"
When Lao Zhang received Yuan Shikai's order asking him to send troops out of the pass, he was furious. The troops in the army were not enough at the moment. How could there be any extra force to send troops into the pass?
"Yu Shuai, it's obvious that Old Yuan's order is for evil purposes. If we agree, we will take the opportunity to weaken Fengjun. If we don't agree, we will give Yuan Shikai a handle, and then Old Yuan can cause trouble for us. This is for
We have a problem." Yuan Jinkai analyzed.
Sun Liechen frowned, and then said: "That's what you say, but we first defeated Yijun, and then openly refused Lao Yuan's order. In the eyes of outsiders, our Fengjun seemed a little too arrogant and domineering, which easily caused various conflicts.
Fang is dissatisfied."
The parties Sun Liechen mentioned obviously did not refer to Lao Yuan. Now the situation in Beiyang has become obvious. Lao Yuan has declined. The two factions that really control the real power in Beiyang are Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang.
Beiyang has a strong foundation. Even if Lao Yuan fails, Cai E has no ability to shake the foundation of Beiyang. Beiyang will still control the power in Beijing. If they are dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin and then adopt restrictive measures, it will be very detrimental to the development of Fengjun. After all,
Lao Zhang’s wings are not yet full.
"Yuting, maybe the Independent Brigade is too good at fighting, which is why Lao Yuan had the idea of mobilizing the Feng Army to enter the pass to fight against the Yunnan Army." Zhang Jinghui sighed and said: "The first bird will be shot. We are letting Lao Yuan
Targeted."
"If the fight is really difficult, I'm afraid Lao Yuan will not order us to send troops, but order me to go to Beijing to plead guilty!" Lao Zhang said loudly: "The better the fight, the more powerful we will be.
To save face, I, Lao Zhang, am not afraid of being the one who stands out. In short, I will tell you that Fengjun will never enter the border. Whatever Lao Yuan wants to do, let him go. I can't let my brothers be cannon fodder for Lao Yuan!"
Zhang Zuolin saw clearly that the Beiyang circle was a place where the weak were bullied and the strong were afraid of the strong. People like Mi Zhenbiao who did not overestimate their abilities were looking for death. But when you have strength, you must show it. Just like this time, one regiment of the Independent Brigade easily wiped out four
There are more than a thousand Yijun, which means that the entire independent brigade is worth ten thousand Yijun.
Holding the Independent Brigade and the 27th Division, Lao Zhang is equivalent to having the strength of two divisions. He is the first outside the Pass. Moreover, through a hearty victory, he can completely convince those half-hearted fence-sitters, at least in the
After the Battle of Tongliao, the two garrison envoys Wu Junsheng and Ma Longtan had completely turned to Zhang Zuolin.
Only Lao Zhang obeyed, and this was the result of the battle. It was also Lao Zhang's confidence. If Lao Yuan really dared to force him, Lao Zhang might raise the banner of protecting the country in Fengtian, making Lao Yuan vulnerable to enemies from all sides.
"Yuting, there are internal and external troubles. We can't blindly break up with Yuan Shikai. Do you think we should accept this order? Then let Feng Delin lead troops into the pass. This is also an explanation to Lao Yuan, and there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, so let Lao Feng go to the pass.
Let’s develop.”
It was Zhang Zuoxiang who spoke. Although Zhang Zuoxiang usually kept quiet, he was also a very thoughtful person. Lao Feng was still nominally Lao Zhang's subordinate and a member of the Fengjun army. It was understandable to let him lead the troops into the pass.
Being able to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate an opponent is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Zhang Zuolin finally showed joy on his face, but then his brows furrowed again.
"Fu Chen's idea is very good, but I'm afraid that Lao Feng won't obey orders."
"If he doesn't obey the order, it will be unreasonable. At that time, we will force Feng Delin to enter the customs!" This is the principle of big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimps. How can Lao Yuan force Lao Zhang like this?
You can use the same method to trick Lao Feng.
Zhang Zuolin thought for a while, nodded, and made up his mind. In order to show that he attached great importance to this matter, Lao Zhang specially asked Zhang Jinghui to go to Beizhen to convey the order to Lao Feng.
Lao Zhang also knew in his heart that Feng Delin would not agree to enter the customs so easily, and Lao Feng might even fall out directly. Therefore, he gave orders to Sun Liechen and Zhang Zuoxiang, asking the troops to be more vigilant and ready to deal with Lao Feng's counterattack at any time.
At this time, Zhang Tinglan had almost settled the matter in Tongliao and rushed back to Fengtian with his troops. This time he was victorious and it coincided with the New Year. For Fengjun, it could be said to be a double happiness. Lao Zhang came to the city in person.
Welcome outside.
He greatly praised the Independence Brigade: "This battle has demonstrated the majesty and momentum of our Fengtian army. Whoever wants to move Fengtian in the future will have to touch their own heads. Whoever doesn't open their eyes, Mi Zhenbiao is a lesson learned from the past!"
"
Representatives from all walks of life in Fengtian's political and business circles were sent. The strength of the Fengtian army was also a boon to them. Only by relying on a strong army could they be safe. Therefore, when they saw the majestic team of the Independence Brigade, everyone was excited.
Moreover, Zhang Tinglan also deliberately placed the prisoners of Yijun in the team. Each of these prisoners was dejected. The team was very long, and many good people counted them one by one, wanting to see how many there were, but soon they
I was dazzled.
Anyway, everyone knows one fact, that is, Fengjun won a resounding victory. Those who originally had doubts about Fengjun have completely shut their mouths. If they want to survive in Fengtian's territory, they must act honestly.
Cooperate with Zhang Zuolin!
This is the effect that Lao Zhang hopes to achieve. A real show of force is more effective than any amount of saliva. After the lively triumphal ceremony, Zhang Tinglan finally returned home. After being busy for more than half a year, it was rare for him to have some peace and quiet.
Now in charge of the Zhang family is the second wife Hua Futian, who is less than ten years older than Zhang Tinglan. Zhang Tinglan will definitely feel a little embarrassed if she thinks of her as a little mother. However, with the customs of this era, there is nothing we can do about it. Mrs. Hua still manages the family business.
A good hand, everything is in order.
Zhang Tinglan also enjoyed his leisure time and went to the teahouse for a while whenever he had time. While he was enjoying his leisure time, Lao Zhang suddenly sent someone to call him over. Zhang Jinghui had returned from Beizhen.
Doufu Zhang had a gloomy look on his face, it was obvious that things were not going well, and he was telling Zhang Zuolin what happened.
"Yuting, I have lived up to my trust. Feng Delin neither agreed nor objected to sending troops. Instead, he asked Fengjun to send troops together. How many people the 27th Division will send, and how many people his 28th Division will send, can't just
People come from one side."
Listening to Zhang Jinghui's introduction, Lao Zhang also frowned. I really can't underestimate Feng Delin. He has been through countless waves. He doesn't rub the sand in his eyes. It's really not that easy to fool him away.
"Commander, since Commander Feng said so, let's simply agree and send troops into the pass." Zhang Tinglan put forward his own idea.
Lao Zhang frowned and said, "I don't want to waste my military power in the pass."
Zhang Tinglan secretly laughed in his heart. In history, it was because Lao Zhang was keen to take over the Central Plains that he exhausted the energy of the Feng clan. In the end, the Japanese were lucky enough to occupy the three northeastern provinces. Now Lao Zhang obviously does not have such unrealistic ideas and runs his hometown.
It is still the first place. Although the pass is good, there is no stable rear. There is no way to get involved.
"Commander, why did you forget? We still have a force on hand that we can use." Zhang Tinglan reminded. Lao Zhang also had a flash of thought, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
"I'm sorry, you are talking about the reinforcement group that Duan Zhigui brought at that time."
"That's right, His Highness Qian only took away a thousand people, and there are still about three thousand people left. This time we captured more than a thousand Yijun. In the past, there were many dismantled patrol camps and so on. Let's take these
If everyone is organized, at least one brigade of soldiers can be mobilized to send these people to the pass. This will not weaken the Feng army's combat effectiveness, but get rid of all the burden."
Zhang Tinglan had this idea when he left to strengthen the group. No one would have nothing to do. He raised a bunch of freeloaders just to use them as shields at critical moments.
"Actually, it's not just these guys, there are bandits all over the Northeast. We have integrated these people and sent them to the customs to let them eat and drink from Lao Yuan. This is to reduce our burden. In addition, since Lao Yuan let them
When we send troops to the pass, we can't just talk in vain. Should he give us money, guns, and staff? I don't think Lao Yuan's move is clever. We can definitely counter him and ask for more.
A lot of benefits.”
After Zhang Tinglan said a few words, everyone present was dumbfounded. You can still play like this, but when you think about it, it is really a good idea. Zhang Zuoxiang only thought of dragging Feng Delin into the water, and Zhang Tinglan was better than his master, and Yuan Shikai was also involved in the conspiracy.
Wow, it’s simply amazing.
Lao Zhang also beamed: "Zhuoyan's brain is very flexible. If I had known earlier, I would have asked you directly, which would have saved me a lot of effort. I haven't thought of a solution yet. So what should I do next? Zhuoyan should come up with the charter."
"Commander, Lao Yuan wants to put us in a dilemma. I think we can also turn around and defeat Yuan Shikai's army. You might as well build up momentum first and spread the word that Feng Jun has devoted himself to the emperor and will soon send troops to the pass to help the emperor calm down.
Rebellion. We can first send those bastards into the pass as the vanguard to show our sincerity. Then we can raise some small difficulties with Lao Yuan and ask him to help solve them. Emperor Yuan’s imperial decree is there, and he will not
As for swallowing what you say."
After hearing Zhang Tinglan's idea, Sun Liechen nodded frequently, but he still had a question: "I would like to ask, if Yuan Shikai really agrees, should we still send troops to work for Yuan Shikai?"
Zhang Tinglan smiled and shook his head: "The Northeast is so chaotic that anything that happens can be used as an excuse. And I don't think Emperor Yuan can survive that long. Let's have a few rounds of tug-of-war with him to get to the establishment level."
, take enough guns and oceans, and then eat them up, there is no need to pay attention to Yuan Shikai, and just wait for his downfall."
In fact, the matter in front of us is a game between three parties. Lao Yuan, Lao Zhang, and Lao Feng have a huge gap in status. However, status is not the only factor that determines victory or defeat. It also depends on who can seize the opportunity and defeat the other party.
The attack was neutralized and then rebounded.
After immediately discussing the specific plan of action, Lao Zhang led many generals in Fengtian and sent a message to the effect that Zhang Zuolin came from a rough background and was deeply favored by His Majesty, which is what he is today. Now Cai E has openly rebelled against His Majesty the Emperor and Fengjun
Everyone above and below must defend His Majesty to the death and fight against the traitors to the end.
Lao Zhang also modestly said that as a soldier, he did not understand democracy, republic, or constitutional monarchy. He only knew that His Majesty the Emperor was the head of state. As a soldier, he should serve the country and be loyal to the Emperor!
The core of this power-up is four words: Repay gratitude!
This is what Lao Zhang said and what he did. He immediately ordered the Feng army to fully mobilize, prepare all weapons, and intensify training every day, ready to be dispatched by His Majesty at any time.
Not only was the army mobilized, but Lao Zhang also went around to recruit soldiers and civilians, and asked the Ministry of War for instructions to send a liaison group to clear the way for Feng's army to enter the pass. He also asked for a route for dispatching troops.
Zhang Zuolin's hard work naturally soon reached the ears of Lao Yuan. Yuan Shikai was also stunned for a while. Could it be that he had been mistaking Zhang Zuolin? This bandit leader was just arrogant and domineering, but he still had loyalty in his heart. You must know that Yuan Shikai is now the most
The sad thing is that his former subordinates did not listen to greetings and only looked at his own jokes, so a loyal minister suddenly appeared, which gave Lao Yuan a sense of comfort. He had not yet failed, and there were still loyal people in the world! (To be completed.)
