"Mr. Shaochuan, I have admired him for a long time. He was an eloquent speaker at the Paris Peace Conference and fought hard for national rights. It is really admirable." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile.
"Ashamed, it's really not worth mentioning." Gu Weijun sighed and said: "The national sovereignty has not been regained at all. I am ashamed of the hopeful people across the country. Even if there was no signature in the end, Shandong still fell into the hands of the Japanese. Watching the country
The loss of sovereignty is really heartbreaking!”
"Shaochuan, it's not your fault. A weak country has no diplomacy. You have already done your duty. Don't be too demanding." Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "I often talk about the jungle world, where the weak eat the strong. The so-called great powers are all the same."
I was born to help bandits, and trying to reason with them is a waste of time."
"As expected, without strength, there is no dignity." Gu Weijun said: "When I was in Paris, I met Fengtian's purchasing group. After talking for a few words, I felt a lot of emotion. We went to negotiate with the great powers, but we were still superstitious about justice.
, while Fengtian is collecting technical equipment, and the level of the two is clear at a glance. After returning to China, I also want to visit the three northeastern provinces to experience this, and explore the road to a strong country, how the country should develop, and how to deal with diplomacy."
Although the Paris Peace Conference made Gu Weijun famous all over the world, it was actually a huge blow to his ideals. Gu Weijun saw clearly the cruelty and reality of the world, and had to worry about China's future. After returning to China, Gu Weijun continued to
After paying attention to Fengjun's actions over the years, Gu Weijun was surprised after some research. Unknowingly, Fengjun had made too many earth-shaking changes.
For example, the establishment of a farm system ended the two-thousand-year-old tenancy system; the promotion of science and engineering education changed China's tradition of emphasizing literature over science, so that skilled workers would be respected; and investment in industrialization reversed the entire social structure of China.
As an outstanding talent who has studied in the West for many years, Gu Weijun is very clear. The great powers are also doing these things when they move from the feudal era to the capital era. However, they do not have a clear plan, they appear very messy, and even regress, and the duration is quite long.
long.
The Northeast directly skipped those wrong links and went straight to the core. It is obvious that the leadership of the three Northeastern provinces is very clear-headed and wise, and has thoroughly studied the development laws of the world. Every measure is meaningful and well-intentioned.
, being able to do this is already thousands of times better than Beiyang.
Gu Weijun became more and more identified with Fengjun and went to the Northeast several times to observe. The changes he actually saw were even more gratifying. Therefore, Gu Weijun decided to join Fengjun and regarded this place as a new starting point for his career.
"Mr. Gu. Japan's Foreign Minister Uchida Yasuya is coming to Fengtian for negotiations recently. I would like to ask Mr. Gu to talk to him on our behalf. I wonder if I can agree?"
Japanese Foreign Minister? Uchida Yasuya? After hearing this, Gu Weijun was immediately surprised. Japan has never sent any big shots to deal with the Chinese government. A minister is enough. When will it be the Foreign Minister’s turn to step forward? And it’s still
Going to Fengtian in person is a bit too subversive!
"Commander-in-Chief, I dare to ask. I always have an idea of what we are going to talk about."
"Since the assassination of the general, our relationship with Japan has been very tense. There have been military confrontations in the Yalu River, Shanhaiguan, South Manchuria Railway and other places. Now, in order to deal with the Russian majority party with all their strength, the Japanese want to ease relations with us and put
Concentrate your strength."
Gu Weijun's mind was also extremely flexible. He immediately understood that Japan's ability to send a foreign minister in person obviously meant that it was soft on Fengjun. It was really extraordinary for a small local force to be able to do this.
It's amazing. Even if there is luck, Feng Jun has the backbone and strength to dare to confront the Japanese. Without two brushes, there is no hope of gaining the respect of the Japanese. Now it seems that Feng Jun is indeed unusual.
"Thanks to the Commander-in-Chief who thinks highly of me, Shaochuan is willing to take over this task, but I would like to ask you to provide more information. I want to straighten things out first and be prepared!"
Zhang Tinglan nodded happily and said with a smile: "Mr. Shaochuan, if you don't mind being a junior official, you can temporarily act as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the three eastern provinces!"
Speaking of the lack of diplomatic talents in the three eastern provinces, Zhang Tinglan was overjoyed that Gu Weijun could come, so naturally he wanted to find a suitable position. Gu Weijun also said quickly: "When I came to Fengtian, I intend to serve the commander-in-chief, so I will not refuse.
, please ask the Commander-in-Chief to take a look at my performance!"
Gu Weijun hurriedly prepared information and planned how to deal with Uchida. Zhang Tinglan smiled and said to Wang Yongjiang: "Mr. Minyuan, what Fengjun lacks most now is talents. If we can recruit experts like Gu Shaochuan, it will be really good."
It’s something you wish for!”
Wang Yongjiang also smiled and said: "There are people everywhere, but there are not many truly available talents. You can't just wait, you have to search for them yourself. I mean, didn't you tinker with a promotional video earlier?
The effect is very good. Many immigrants in the customs decided to go to the three northeastern provinces because they saw the film. I think it is best for us to set up a special department to find talents. They will go to the customs and even overseas to recruit Chinese people everywhere.
Talented people, and then drag these people to the northeast."
When Zhang Tinglan heard this idea, his eyes immediately lit up. In later developed countries and large enterprises, they all have special talent strategies and search for available talents from all over the world. Now Fengjun has developed to a certain extent.
We all need talents, and we should indeed make great efforts to recruit talents and invite a large number of useful talents.
"Mr. Minyuan, your approach is great. I will immediately arrange personnel to take charge of this matter. I think the first candidates to recruit should be placed at several military academies, especially Baoding Military Academy. It has the earliest schools and the largest number of teachers.
It is also strong, and there are many talents worth attracting. The Nanyang Naval Academy also has a group of naval talents, all of whom we urgently need."
At this time, many influential figures in the late Republic of China were just emerging, such as Bai Chongxi, Zhang Zhizhong, Chen Shaokuan, etc., all in their thirties, their careers had just started, and they were not worth mentioning. It would be easy to recruit them.
a lot of.
When Zhang Zuolin was in Japan, he had to take into account the opinions of the old-school figures. Zhang Tinglan could not expand his team at will, and tried to use talents from the three northeastern provinces. Now that the situation has changed, the talent policy should also change, and talents from all over the country should be recruited. It must also be mentioned
On the agenda.
"I'd like to say that if you are thinking about these military academy students, you'd better think clearly first. They are not alone. They will follow you when you recruit them. They all have complicated teacher-student relationships and are intricately intertwined. Most of them are
After graduation, people are willing to return to their hometowns and will not easily come to the three northeastern provinces."
What Wang Yongjiang said is absolutely correct. In this era, regional barriers are still very serious. In addition, the Democratic Party’s stupid slogan of joint provincial autonomy has produced very bad consequences. People in each province first think of their own province, and those who work in other provinces
Talents will also be discriminated against and excluded, which greatly restricts the flow of talents. It also intensifies local separatist forces.
"Mr. Minyuan, I am extremely opposed to the concept of regionalism. China has always been unified. In ancient times, there was a tradition of serving officials in different places, which lasted for many dynasties, in order to prevent local separatism. As a result, after the Republic of China, a bunch of bastards
Simply imitating the backward political system of the West, trying to establish a federal system, and shouting slogans of federal-provincial autonomy. As a result, a good country is divided. This is definitely a crime!"
"Hahaha, it's useless for you to be angry. This is reality. It can't be changed in a day or two. I think if you want to recruit students from the military academy, you might as well start with key personnel, such as Jiang Fangzhen, the former principal of Baoding Military Academy.
, this person has very high military attainments, and has high prestige among students. If you bring him over, you can recruit a bunch of talents. In addition, in terms of the navy, it is best to convince Sa Zhenbing, who has the most seniority in the navy.
He has unparalleled connections, and if he can do his job, everything will be convenient!"
"High!" Zhang Tinglan couldn't help but give Wang Yongjiang a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Mr. Minyuan, you are so resourceful, I really admire you!"
"I would like to say that recruiting talents is one aspect, and how to use talents is another aspect. If you introduce a large number of foreign talents, what will happen to the original people and how to balance the people below? If these newcomers stick together, it will be a long time.
If you can't integrate into Fengjun, what will happen? You have to think about these things."
"Thank you, Mr. Minyuan, for your advice." Zhang Tinglan couldn't help but bow to Wang Yongjiang. How to use talents is much more important than discovering talents. In history, Beiyang also recruited great talents from all over the world, but the result was still the same.
It was inevitable that it would decline. The same was true for the later Democratic Party. It had many generals who were capable of fighting, but in the end they did not die at the hands of the other party. Many of them were tricked by their own people. This is a painful lesson.
Wang Yongjiang is older than Zhang Zuoxiang. In fact, he regards Zhang Tinglan as a junior in his heart, and is willing to give more guidance to Zhang Tinglan to make him less negligent.
Zhang Tinglan also said: "Employment is a university subject, and I will study a set of regulations carefully. However, compared with military talents, the civil affairs system requires more and more complex talents, and unlike the military, civil affairs talents must rely on their own
Training, sir, I need to worry more about this."
"Well, I am also born to work hard." Wang Yongjiang said with a wry smile: "I just met Chu Mingyuan. That young man is good and has very strong work ability. I have promoted him to be the director of the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau in Rehe. I don't think he will be needed.
In a few years, the civil affairs of Rehe will be handed over to him. He also made a suggestion to me, asking for a railway to be built from Fengtian to directly connect to Chengde, and to use Chengde as a link directly connecting the northeast and northwest. I think this suggestion is very important.
Well, in the past, the Northeast had to go through Beijing and Tianjin before transferring to the northwest. Now we can go directly to Chengde, which not only saves time and effort, but also makes the best preparation for the next expansion of power."
The matters discussed by Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang were all related to Fengjun's next development plan. After making the decision, they took the time to implement it.
The next day, Zhang Xueliang came to see Zhang Tinglan again. As soon as they met, he said: "I have discussed it with Mrs. Ru and Feng Zhi, and they all agreed that I will leave for Europe in the next two days."
"Han Qing, since you are in such a hurry to leave, there is one more thing waiting for you to do before leaving!"
"What happened?"
"Of course they are those Fengjun scum who betrayed their whereabouts. Although the commander-in-chief died at the hands of the Japanese, they are also accomplices. Can we still let him go?"
When Zhang Xueliang heard this, he immediately clenched his fists: "That's right, Zhang Haipeng, Tang Yulin, Yu Chonghan, Xiqia and these bastards can't let go. My father treated them well and promoted them repeatedly. As a result,
These people actually cheated on me and caused my father to die tragically at the hands of the Japanese. If I don't kill them, I can't forgive the hatred in my heart!"
The case of Zhang Zuolin's assassination has been basically investigated. This kind of lawsuit is a national feud. If you want to settle it, just wait until the Japanese are defeated! Keeping those scum has lost its value. It is just right for Zhang Xueliang to avenge himself.
Resolve some of the anger in your heart.
He took Zhang Xueliang, one behind the other, to the prison cell where Zhang Haipeng and others were imprisoned. Zhang Haipeng was the first to bear the brunt, and the young marshal walked up to him coldly.
"Zhang Haipeng, when you colluded with the Japanese, you didn't expect that today would happen, right?"
"Winners and losers, Zhang Hanqing, don't be so proud, I made a mistake because I didn't realize that the Japanese are also fucking losers!"
Zhang Haipeng wanted to continue talking, but with a bang, his body fell to the ground... (To be continued...)
