Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 157 Great Loyal Minister

"Damn it, this bullshit decree is harder than poor ass paper, what's the use of it!"

When Lao Zhang received Yuan Shikai's order to send troops out of the pass, he immediately became furious. There are not enough troops in the Fengjun at the moment, so how can there be extra forces sent into the pass!

"Yu Shuai, it's obvious that Lao Yuan's order is full of evil intentions. 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 Lao Yuan can trouble us. This is for us. We have a problem." Yuan Jinkai analyzed.

Sun Liechen frowned, and then said: "That's what I said, but we beat Yi Jun first, and then we blatantly rejected Lao Yuan's order. In the eyes of outsiders, our Feng Jun seems a little too arrogant and domineering, which is easy to cause all kinds of troubles." Fang is dissatisfied."

The parties Sun Liechen mentioned obviously did not refer to Lao Yuan. Now the situation in Beiyang is obvious, Lao Yuan has declined, and the real power in Beiyang is 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 Beijing regime. If they are dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin and then adopt restrictive measures, it will be very detrimental to the development of Fengjun. Lao Zhang's wings are not yet full.

"Yuting, maybe the independent brigade is so good at fighting, that's why Lao Yuan had the idea of ​​sending the Feng army into the customs to fight against the Yunnan army." Zhang Jinghui sighed and said, "Shooting the first bird, we are letting Lao Yuan Watching."

"If the fight is really difficult, I'm afraid Lao Yuan didn't order us to send troops, but ordered 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, are not afraid of being the first bird. In short, I will say that Feng Jun will never enter the customs. Whatever Lao Yuan wants to do, let him go. I can't let my brothers be Lao Yuan's cannon fodder!"

Zhang Zuolin could see very clearly that the circle in Beiyang was a place where the weak were bullied and the hard-pressed, and people like Mi Zhenbiao who overestimated themselves were looking for death.But if you have strength, you have to show it. Just like this time, one regiment of the Independent Brigade easily wiped out more than 4000 Yijun, which means that the entire Independent Brigade can be worth [-] Yijun.

Holding the Independent Brigade and the 27th Division.Lao Zhang is equivalent to having the strength of two divisions, the first one outside the pass, and through a hearty victory, he can completely subdue those half-hearted wall-riding factions, at least after the Battle of Tongliao.Wu Junsheng and Ma Longtan, the two guards, have completely turned to Zhang Zuolin.

Only Lao Zhang follows the lead, and this is the result of the battle.It's also where Lao Zhang's confidence lies.If Lao Yuan really dared to persecute him, Lao Zhang might raise the banner of protecting the Communist Party in Fengtian and let Lao Yuan suffer from the enemy.

"Yuting, internal and external troubles, we can't blindly tear ourselves apart with Yuan Shikai. You see, we should accept this order. Then let Feng Delin lead the troops into the customs. This is also an explanation to Lao Yuan, and one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, so let Lao Feng go to the customs. develop."

It was Zhang Zuoxiang who spoke.Although Zhang Zuoxiang is usually silent, he is also a very thoughtful person. In name, Lao Feng is still Lao Zhang's subordinate and a member of Fengjun. It is understandable for him to lead troops into the customs, and he can take the opportunity to get rid of an opponent. , this is a golden opportunity.

Zhang Zuolin finally showed joy on his face, but then frowned again.

"Fuchen's idea is very good, I'm afraid that Lao Feng won't obey orders."

"If he doesn't listen to the order, it's nothing to blame. At that time, we will force Feng Delin to enter the customs!" This is the reason why big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimp. Lao Yuan can force Lao Zhang like this, Lao Zhang You can use the same method to cheat Lao Feng.

Zhang Zuolin thought for a while, nodded, and made up his mind. In order to show that he attached importance to this matter, Lao Zhang specially asked Zhang Jinghui to go to Beizhen to deliver orders to Lao Feng.

Lao Zhang also knew in his heart that Feng Delin would not agree to enter the customs so easily, maybe Lao Feng would turn his face directly.Therefore, he gave orders to both Sun Liechen and Zhang Zuoxiang to make the troops more vigilant and ready to deal with Lao Feng's counterattack at any time.

At this time, Zhang Tinglan had almost dealt with the affairs of Tongliao, and rushed back to Fengtian with his troops. He was victorious this time, and it coincided with the New Year. For Fengjun, it can be said to be a double blessing. Greet outside.

He greatly praised the Independent Brigade: "This battle has demonstrated the prestige of our Fengjun army and our aura. Anyone who wants to move Fengtian in the future will have to touch his head. Anyone who doesn't open his eyes, Mi Zhenbiao is a lesson from the past! "

Fengtian government and business circles have sent representatives. The strength of the Fengtian army is also a blessing to them. Only by relying on a strong army can they be safe. Therefore, when they saw the majestic team of the Independent Brigade, everyone was excited.

Moreover, Zhang Tinglan also specially put Yijun's captives in the team. These captives were all downcast, and the team was so long that many good people counted them one by one, wanting to see how many there were, but soon Dazzled.

Anyway, everyone knows the fact that Fengjun won a hearty victory. People who had doubts about Fengjun completely shut up. If they want to hang out on Fengtian's territory, they must be honest Cooperate with Zhang Zuolin!

This is the effect that Lao Zhang hopes to achieve. A real display of force is more effective than any amount of saliva. After the lively triumphant ceremony, Zhang Tinglan finally returned home. After being busy for more than half a year, it is rare to have a quiet time.

Now the second wife Hua Futian is in charge of the Zhang family, 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 young mother, but the customs of this era are like this, there is no way around it.Mrs. Hua is still good at managing the family business, and she keeps everything in order.

Zhang Tinglan was also happy to have a leisurely time. Whenever he was free, he would go to the teahouse for a while. While he was enjoying his leisure time, Lao Zhang suddenly sent someone to call him over. Zhang Jinghui came back from Beizhen.

Doufu Zhang had an unlucky face, apparently things were not going well, and he was telling Zhang Zuolin what happened.

"Yuting, I have a responsibility. Feng Delin neither agreed nor objected to sending troops. Instead, he asked Fengjun to send troops together. How many people should be sent by the 27th Division, and how many people should he send from the 28th Division? We can't just send troops 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 rivers and waves, and he doesn't rub the sand in his eyes. It's really not that easy to fool him away.

"Marshal, since Master Feng said so, we simply agree, let's send troops into the customs." Zhang Tinglan put forward her 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, because in history, it was because Lao Zhang was keen to rule the Central Plains.It was only then that the vitality of the Feng family was exhausted, and finally the Japanese were lucky enough to occupy the three eastern provinces. Now Lao Zhang obviously does not have such unrealistic ideas, and running his hometown is still the first.Although the pass is good, there is no stable rear.Don't even try to get involved.

"Marshal, why did you forget? We still have an army at hand." Zhang Tinglan reminded.A thought flashed through Lao Zhang's mind, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

"Zhuoyan, what you're talking about is the reinforcement regiment that Duan Zhigui brought."

"That's right, His Highness only took away about a thousand people, and there are still about 3000 people left. This time we captured more than 1000 Yi soldiers. In the past, there were many abolished patrol battalions and so on. We took all these people Organized, at least one brigade of soldiers can be pulled out and sent to the pass. This is not to weaken the combat effectiveness of the Feng army, but to get rid of all the burden."

Zhang Tinglan had this idea when she left the reinforcement group at the beginning. No one would be idle and have nothing to do. Raising a bunch of free food is to use them as a shield at critical times.

"In fact, it's not just these guys, there are bandits all over the Northeast. We recruited these people and sent them to the pass to let them eat and drink from Lao Yuan. This is to reduce our burden. In addition, since Lao Yuan let When we send troops to the pass, we can't just talk in plain language. Should he give us money, guns, and establishments? I don't think Lao Yuan's move is very clever. We can counter him and ask for more money. Very affordable."

After Zhang Tinglan said a few words, all the people present were dumbfounded. It is still possible to play like this, but it is really a good way to think about it.Zhang Zuoxiang only thought of dragging Feng Delin into the water, but Zhang Tinglan was better than Lan, and even Yuan Shikai was involved, which is simply too powerful.

Lao Zhang also smiled happily: "Zhuoyan's brain is flexible. If I knew it earlier, I would have asked you directly. It would save me a lot of effort. If I haven't figured out a solution, then what should I do next? Zhuoyan will come up with the regulations."

"Marshal, Lao Yuan wants us to be in a dilemma. I think we can turn Yuan Shikai's army in reverse. You might as well build up momentum first, and publicize that Fengjun has dedicated 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 customs as the vanguard to show our sincerity. Then we will raise a little difficulty with Lao Yuan and ask him to help solve it. As for swallowing the words that come out.”

Sun Liechen nodded frequently after hearing Zhang Tinglan's thoughts, but there was still a little doubt: "Zhuoyan, if Yuan Shikai really agrees, will we still send troops to work for Yuan Shikai?"

Zhang Tinglan shook her head with a smile: "The Northeast is so chaotic, anything can be used as an excuse. And I don't think Emperor Yuan can last that long. Let's have a few rounds of tug-of-war with him. , take enough guns and oceans, and then eat and wipe them out, don’t even talk to Yuan Shikai, just wait for him to fall.”

In fact, the matter in front of us is a three-party game. The status of Lao Yuan, Lao Zhang, and Lao Feng is very different, but status is not the only factor that determines the outcome. The offensive was resolved, and then bounced back.

Immediately after discussing the specific action plan, Lao Zhang led the many generals in Fengtian and sent a telegram, to the effect that Zhang Zuolin was born in a reckless family, and he was greatly favored by His Majesty, which made him what he is today.Now that Cai E has openly rebelled against His Majesty the Emperor, the whole Fengjun will swear to defend His Majesty to the death and deal with the rebels to the end.

Lao Zhang also humbly said that as a soldier, he doesn't understand a democratic republic or a constitutional monarchy. He only knows that His Majesty the Emperor is the head of state. As a soldier, he should serve the country and be loyal to the emperor!

The core of this energization is four words: Zhien Tubao!

That's what Lao Zhang said, and he did the same. He immediately ordered the Feng army to be fully mobilized, prepare all their weapons, and intensify their drills every day, waiting for His Majesty's dispatch at any time.

Not only was the army mobilized, Lao Zhang also collected military salaries and civilian husbands everywhere, and asked the Ministry of the Army for instructions to send a liaison team to open the way for the Fengjun to enter the customs, and also asked for the route to send troops.

Zhang Zuolin's hard-working actions naturally reached Lao Yuan's ears very quickly. Yuan Shikai was also stunned. Could it be that he had been wrong about Zhang Zuolin? The sad thing is that the former subordinates didn't listen to the greetings and watched their own jokes, so a loyal minister suddenly appeared, which gave Lao Yuan a little comfort. He has not failed yet, and there are still loyal people in the world! (To be continued..)
