"I have to say that the commander-in-chief is mobilizing troops and generals. I am afraid that there is no way to change his mind about entering the pass!"
Yang Yuting smiled bitterly and said to Zhang Tinglan that the young Zhuge who served in the army had repeatedly discussed these issues with Zhang Tinglan. Yang Yuting knew the risks of rushing into the customs, but he didn't know how to persuade Lao Zhang, or there was no way to persuade him at all.
Because among the candidates for this troop dispatch, the faction close to Zhang Tinglan was not selected at all. Lao Zhang mobilized a total of three divisions and four brigades this time, with a total strength of more than 60,000, including the Heilongjiang First Division commanded by Wu Junsheng.
The Fifth Division of Dongsan Province commanded by Zhang Xueliang, the Fengtian Garrison Division commanded by Zhang Jinghui, and the other four brigades were led by Zhang Haipeng, Kan Chaoxi, Ji Jinchun and Tang Yulin respectively.
The army staff unexpectedly chose Xi Qia, Sun Liechen was appointed as the general logistics officer, and Yu Chonghan served as the army liaison officer. In this personnel arrangement plan, except for Zhang Xueliang and Guo Songling, the others were all from the Fengxian
The old man also included two pro-Japanese factions, Xi Qia and Yu Chonghan. As for Zhang Tinglan, none of his staff were selected.
"The commander-in-chief is already suspicious of us. He originally obeyed his words, but now he has abandoned us all at once and made it clear that he does not trust us. It is hard to say anything to persuade him." Yang Yuting sighed at the side.
.
"Actually, it's our fault for not thinking about this matter." Zhang Zuoxiang said from the side: "The changes in Yuting actually started from the recovery of the Middle Road. After marching into Hailanpao, Yuting became wary of us."
Compared with Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting, Zhang Zuo has much more experience and knows Zhang Zuolin better, so he analyzed: "Whether it is recovering the Middle Road or sending troops to Hailanpao, Fengjun's military power is increasing day by day, and it can even be said to be at its peak.
A large number of young people across the country are regarded as the hope of the future by Fengjun. This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. All the glory is added to the heads of the Border Guards and Tinglan, and it is also his subordinates who are promoted. As a result, the Border Guards fade away.
They are a group of their own, and they are also a bit unruly and look down on other troops."
"Sounds like it was a mistake on our part. If we could consider other people when taking action, especially letting Yu Ting personally arrange the personnel. Ting Lan would be there to assist. In this way, it would be much easier to reward based on merit."
"Commander Auxiliary, in fact, we can't be blamed for this." Yang Yuting said from the side: "Many veterans of the Fengjun army are afraid of the great powers and are opposed to our sending troops. In addition, their subordinates are not trained enough. It will be very troublesome to draw them to the battlefield like this.
Big. Maybe we won’t be able to regain the Middle Road."
While Zhang Tinglan listened, he was also thinking in his mind. In the final analysis, there was an imbalance of power within Fengjun. Even if Lao Zhang knew that Zhang Tinglan had no objections, if this trend continues, Fengjun's military industry system was established by Zhang Tinglan.
The prestige of the army was created by Zhang Tinglan. So where should the commander-in-chief Zhang Zuolin be placed?
In particular, the new-school figures are generally close to Zhang Tinglan, and Zhang Tinglan has contacts with the United States, Britain and other countries. Sooner or later, there will be a big day. To solve this problem, there are only two ways, either to kill Zhang Tinglan, or to send troops into the pass to capture Feng Tinglan.
The military structure became larger.
Of course, Lao Zhang also knows that if we want to kill Zhang Tinglan now, let alone the difficulty, even if we succeed in killing him, the three eastern provinces will be completely destroyed. The border guards, Fengtian Bank, farms, and militia were all established by Zhang Tinglan.
Yes, if Lao Zhang dares to take action, it will immediately cause an unprecedented turmoil. Lao Zhang does not dare to take action and destroys the Great Wall.
"Now that the commander-in-chief has made up his mind to send troops, I don't think I should give any advice. Instead, I should try my best to help the commander-in-chief plan it. He doesn't need us, and we can't ignore it. If the commander-in-chief can really win the bet this time, Feng Jun will also
It can open up a new situation.”
When Zhang Tinglan said this, Yang Yuting was also shocked. He didn't expect that Lao Zhang had excluded Zhang Tinglan, and he could still think of helping Lao Zhang. It can be seen that this young man is indeed more public-minded than selfish, and is different from ordinary people.
"There are two points we must pay attention to. The first is intelligence work. We must ensure the safety of the commander. It is easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. We must be prepared for any risks. The second point is the Japanese, Xi Qia and Yu Chonghan.
All these guys are pawns planted by the Japanese. If the commander rashly uses them, he might have some connection with the Japanese secretly. This is the most dangerous thing!"
After Yang Yuting listened, he nodded: "Indeed, the personnel arrangements this time are a bit special. In fact, I heard a clue from the words of Wu Junsheng, Zhang Jinghui and others. It seems that they have already communicated with the Japanese and are willing to protect the Japanese.
interests in China, in exchange for the Japanese agreeing to join the army and occupy the Central Plains!"
Zhang Tinglan sighed and said with a wry smile: "I have insisted that the Fengjun army must be independent from the beginning. For this goal, I will not hesitate to fight against the Japanese at the end of the day. Without precious independence, military industry and finance cannot develop.
So fast, but at this time, if we have to give up the foundation of our livelihood in the army and be willing to become a tool of the Japanese, the danger is too great!"
"Those who are involved in the trouble are confused and the beholder is clear! Yu Ting was so smart, how could he be so confused!" Zhang Zuoxiang was full of melancholy. He really didn't want to see his brother in trouble take risks, but he didn't have any good ideas.
"I agree with Zhu Yan's statement. You two must secretly help Yu Ting and protect him. Even if you fail this time, you must ensure Yu Ting's personal safety!"
"Dad, don't worry."
After several people discussed it, Zhang Zuoxiang left Fengtian directly. He wanted to return to Jilin to take charge, watch over Zhongzhong Road and Hailanpao, and ensure the safety of Northern Manchuria.
Yang Yuting was not idle either. He found Chang Yinhuai, the intelligence leader.
"Hanbo, the commander is determined to enter the border. You are responsible for the intelligence work, so you must pay more attention to it. You must not let the commander make any mistakes. Do you understand?"
"Chief of Staff, don't worry. Commander-in-Chief Zhang also mentioned it to me. In fact, psychologically speaking, I don't want to enter the customs at this time. The three northeastern provinces have just been prosperous. It is a good time for development and accumulation. I have accumulated enough strength.
, directly annexing the world, when the strength is not enough, the risk is too great."
"Stop saying these words. Just pay more attention to everything. Let's do our part and don't make any mistakes."
Just when Yang Yuting was explaining, Marshal Zhang Xueliang took the initiative to find Zhang Tinglan. When the two brothers met, Zhang Xueliang's face became a little ugly.
"Brother Zhuoyan, it's not that my father doesn't trust you anymore. He wants to send troops into the pass, and he must have capable people to look after the root cause. You and Uncle Eight are his most trusted candidates, so that's why he didn't select you."
"Han Qing, you don't need to say more. I know in my heart that when the commander enters the customs, safety work is the first priority. You are his son, and you must help the commander consider this issue. I have thought about it for a few times.
Here’s a way. If it’s not convenient to tell the commander directly, I’ll let you take him there.”
"Do you have any plans?"
"I have a very bad opinion about entering the customs. If it is a normal military failure, the commander-in-chief can just return to the customs, and we can recharge our batteries. But once other dangers arise, you have to pay more attention. I thought about it three times
The first way is to dispatch the most capable special forces to closely protect the commander; the second is to bring the plane, so that if danger arises, you can escape from the air; the third is that I have recently made several armored vehicles, protected by steel plates
, generally bullets cannot penetrate it, but if necessary, you can let the commander ride in an armored vehicle!"
Zhang Xueliang was also very moved when he heard Zhang Tinglan's three ideas. Even though Lao Zhang was unwilling to appoint Zhang Tinglan, Zhang Tinglan did not hold any grudge at all and was still planning for Lao Zhang's safety. It was really rare.
"Brother Zhuoyan, I have remembered all your thoughts. I will definitely talk to my father about it when I find an opportunity."
Up to now, Zhang Tinglan has done everything he can. As for other things, he can only rely on God's will. Just when Fengjun was actively deploying troops and generals, a strike, school strike, and market strike swept across the country, both inside and outside the Great Wall.
A huge development unfolded, and all walks of life in the country strongly opposed the signing of the peace treaty with Germany.
Not only that, but with the instigation of various forces behind it, this movement quickly turned into a denunciation of Duan Qirui's government, with voices from all walks of life calling for Lao Duan to resign and step down.
Students from all over Beijing and Tianjin took to the streets to demonstrate. Facing these students, the military and police of the Republic of China had a headache. According to their traditional concepts, these students were no different from the former scholar candidates or even Jinshi. They were all under the auspices of Wenquxing
How dare you go down to earth and attack them?
But the orders from the summit had to be carried out, so there were a lot of jokes. Some policemen even knelt in front of the students and begged them to go back to class and stop marching. Even the current president Xu Shichang was so worried that he had to
Come forward to apologize to the students who were arrested earlier.
Even so, the social trend was still getting higher and higher. At this juncture, Zhang Zuolin, who was patrolling the three eastern provinces, once again led the Fengjun generals and issued a telegram. In the telegram, Zhang Zuolin completely targeted the attack.
Lao Duan claimed that Duan Qirui was ready to accept the contract. The main reason was that Duan Qirui borrowed a large amount from the Japanese and needed to use Shandong's interests to repay it.
In addition, Lao Zhang also enumerated Lao Duan's various mistakes since he came to power, saying that he appointed private individuals to control the superiors. Presidents Li Yuanhong and Feng Guozhang were ousted. He also engaged in backroom politics and secretly betrayed national interests to the great powers. He only knew military affairs, not just civil affairs.
, the people of the country are in dire straits.
In a word, Lao Zhang completely broke up with Duan Qirui and showed a posture that he would not give up until Lao Duan was driven away. Just when the two sides were at war with each other, Liang Qichao and others suddenly proposed another bill in Congress,
It was proposed that Zhang Zuolin enter the customs and discuss national affairs with President Xu Shichang.
Liang Qichao also publicly published an article in a newspaper, saying that since the Republic of China, only Fengjun could safeguard national interests, and only Zhang Zuolin dared to be tough on the outside world. Now that the world is boiling, inviting Yu Shuai to come to Beijing to take charge of the overall situation is the best choice!
At this point, all the conditions for Lao Zhang to enter the customs are in place... (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
