Sun Liechen came to Beijing on behalf of Zhang Zuolin, and received extraordinary treatment. Compared with the last time Lao Zhang was left out at the train station, he was extremely enthusiastic. Xinhua Palace.

The more enthusiastic it is, the more it means that Yuan Shikai is in a difficult situation. Otherwise, Zhang Zuolin would not pretend to be polite, why should he treat himself preferentially? Sun Liechen knew clearly that this is the unpredictable world. In just a few months, he became Lao Yuan asked Feng Jun for help.

Sun Liechen is also an acting school, he showed sincerity and fear, and followed Yang Shiqi to Lao Yuan's bedroom. Juvenile age spots, the complexion is even worse, and the face seems to be covered with a layer of black!

With a heart on his face, just looking at this picture of virtue, he knew that his days might not be long. This was just a flash of Sun Liechen's thought, and he still bowed down to Yuan Shikai honestly.

"Zan Yao, get flat soon." Seeing that Sun Liechen was so obedient, Lao Yuan felt a lot better in his heart, and asked with a smile, "How is Yuting?"

"Returning to His Majesty, Zhang Shuai has just taken charge of the military power of Fengtian, and he is working hard to organize the army and do his duty loyally for His Majesty."

"Okay, okay, Yuting is a capable person, and Fengtian is under his rule, so I can rest assured."

After thinking for a while, Lao Yuan asked again: "Yuting said to send troops into the pass to join the war, how many people can Fengtian send out?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Fengtian's people are few and weak, and they have to shoulder the important task of border defense. There are not many troops that can be dispatched. For the time being, we can send a brigade of troops. In another month or two, Fengtian can organize a division of troops. For His Majesty's encouragement."

When Lao Yuan heard this, his eyes lit up. If Fengtian could really send so many troops, it would definitely have a great impact on the battle situation. Besides, Fengjun easily defeated Yijun, which shows that Fengjun's combat effectiveness is not weak. With [-] loyal and brave men, the front line may really be able to reverse.

Originally Zhang Zuolin said to send troops to support Lao Yuan, but Yuan Shikai was more of a psychological comfort, and he had not yet reached the time when everyone betrayed his relatives.But looking at it now, it was real support, and Lao Yuan felt warm in his heart.

But Yang Shiqi on the side was taken aback. Zhang Zuolin immediately agreed to send a division and a brigade, 5000 troops.This is not a small number. How many people does Lao Zhang have in total?

"Mr. Sun, Zhang Yuting only has the 27th Division under his command. Does he have an independent brigade? Could it be that he is going to send all his troops into the pass, so what kind of force will he use to guard Fengtian?"

Yang Shiqi's words also reminded Lao Yuan, don't just be happy, if Zhang Zuolin is talking big, he will be happy for nothing.

"Zan Yao. Do you have a specific plan for this army? But you must not ignore Fengtian. The Japanese are watching, and there are Mongolian bandits making trouble. If Fengtian makes a mistake, I will be a sinner through the ages!"

Although Yuan Shikai was a hero at the end of his life, he was still very clear-headed, and he must not lose the territory in his own hands. This is also a bottom line that many Beiyang warlords insisted on. Later, Lao Zhang was also killed in the bombing because he insisted on this bottom line. Went to Huanggutun.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Shuai has studied carefully. The last time General Duan brought some troops to Fengtian's guard regiment, they are all Beiyang elite soldiers with strong combat effectiveness. Zhang Shuai transferred some troops from the 27th Division to enrich them and form a brigade advance There is nothing wrong with the troops. The next division will be dispatched from various parts of Fengtian. The two guards, Ma Longtan and Wu Junsheng, have agreed to send troops with Zhang Shuai. able to form a division."

Sun Liechen didn't say anything about Feng Delin on purpose, apparently to trip up Old Feng. After hearing this, Old Yuan frowned slightly.

"Zan Yao, pulling out the main force will weaken the combat effectiveness of the Feng army, and how can the army assembled in this way ensure sufficient combat effectiveness, how to solve the problem of military pay and weapons, do you have a plan?"

Lao Yuan asked the point in every sentence. Obviously, the great emperor is not completely confused, and it is not easy to fool him.

"Your Majesty, mobilizing the main force will naturally affect the combat effectiveness, but Zhang Shuai and the two guards have already formulated a mobile defense strategy, relying on cavalry and railways to quickly transport troops. Once there is a problem, they will be quickly supported, which can greatly save troops. The various units of the Fengjun used to fight bandits together, and they have rich experience in joint operations. After training, they can fully maintain their combat effectiveness. As for the army's salary, they will try their best to raise their own salaries. They will borrow part of it from the Fengtian Bank and ask the British to solve the part. The most difficult thing right now It is arms, the gap is a bit big, but you can also find the Japanese to buy.”

After Lao Yuan listened to it, he nodded frequently. Zhang Zuolin really put his heart into it, and coordinated and considered all aspects, otherwise he would never be able to send so many people.Thinking of this, Lao Yuan was annoyed for a while. If other local officials could think of themselves like Zhang Zuolin, and forming an army of tens of thousands would be like playing games, how could Cai E be arrogant.

"I can tell that Yu Ting is the real loyal minister, and he has thought very carefully. I allocated [-] rifles to you, plus [-] mountain cannons, to equip the army. In addition, I asked Yu Ting to expand the independent brigade. Cheng Fengtian's security division, the force is too weak, and it can't suppress those half-hearted rebels."

Old Yuan's rebellious minister was naturally talking about Feng Delin, Fengtian's four major forces, and the three agreed to send troops, only he remained silent, not a rebellious minister.

Yuan Shikai handed it over to the female officer under him, and after a short while took a bank note of 50 yuan and sent it to Sun Liechen. Now that the Beiyang government is in financial difficulties and can't get a penny out, this money is naturally old. Yuan's private property.

Yang Shiqi has followed Yuan Shikai for many years, and seeing old Yuan fall into this situation, his heart is also sour.To be honest, he didn't believe that Zhang Zuolin would be loyal to Yuan Shikai wholeheartedly, but at this time, he could only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. He said to Sun Liechen, "I hope to tell Zhang Shuai that he will not disappoint His Majesty's trust."

Sun Liechen's heart was already full of joy. The weapons given by Lao Yuan were enough to equip a brigade, especially the artillery, which was a good thing that the Fengjun lacked.Although the money is not much, it can be regarded as a piece of meat. The most important thing is that Lao Yuan agreed to the expansion of Fengjun, and Lao Zhang will be able to own two divisions in a legitimate way. The purpose of coming to Beijing this time has been achieved, and Sun Liechen finally breathed a sigh of relief .

Kowtowing to Lao Yuan one after another: "Your Majesty's grace, I will keep it in mind, and I will definitely die after I die!"

Sun Liechen left Xinhua Palace, and he couldn't return to Fengtian for the time being. Although Lao Yuan promised to give Fengjun weapons, he still didn't see rabbits and didn't scatter eagles. He still had to wait for Fengjun to send troops out. telegram.

After Zhang Zuolin saw it, he was also overjoyed, not only him, Zhang Zuo and others were also ecstatic. This time, he jumped out to support Yuan Shikai despite the huge infamy, and it is still a big profit. The benefits are beyond imagination.

Lao Zhang immediately appointed Zhang Zuoxiang as the commander of the Fengtian Security Division. Zhang Zuoxiang was promoted smoothly, and it happened to be the New Year's Eve. The people in Zhang's house were full of joy, and everyone in Zhang's house gathered together, laughing and laughing constantly.

In addition to Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Tingshu, Zhang Zuoxiang has several younger children, some even breastfeeding, such as his wife Hua Futian and other concubines to take care of these young masters and ladies.

Zhang Zuoxiang and his three sat together. Zhang Tinglan held a cigarette pouch in his hand and filled Zhang Zuoxiang with a pot of cigarettes.

"Father, try it all the time, this is the best Kanto Taiwanese film."

Zhang Zuoxiang's eyes lit up, and he took the cigarette bag: "This thing was a tribute at the beginning, and only the emperor can enjoy it." After lighting it, Zhang Zuoxiang took a puff beautifully, exhaled a big smoke ring for a long time, and said with a smile: " That's right, it does taste unusual!"

"I've heard people say that Kantotai Pian is different from other cigarettes. It can moisturize the lungs and relieve coughs, and it can also help digestion!"

After Zhang Zuoxiang finished smoking a bag of cigarettes, he knocked the tobacco pot on the table, and the ash condensed into one piece, without scattering at all, and fell squarely on the table.Zhang Tingshu looked at it and became interested: "Brother, you have something good, why didn't you tell me?"

"You are a child, what are you smoking!"

"Smoking is not allowed, I drink the head office." Zhang Tingshu turned around, brought a large glass wine bottle, shook it at Zhang Tinglan, and then said to Zhang Zuoxiang: "Father, it is said that the tsar's family drank it , it was sent by that Jew Fred, you have been smoking the cigarettes of the Chinese emperor and drinking some of the wine of the Russian emperor, you will have a good taste this year."

"Second brother, you can only borrow flowers to offer Buddha."

"It took me a lot of effort to find it among your pile of gifts, and it was also sweat."

There were indeed countless people who gave gifts to Zhang Tinglan, several rooms were piled up, and Zhang Tinglan didn't bother to tidy up, so Zhang Tingshu searched for a lot of rare things.

The three of them all poured a glass, but Zhang Tingshu was a little troubled, "How should I drink this thing, brother?"

"The Russians call this vodka, and it is said that you have to drink it all in one gulp to be bold."

As soon as Zhang Tinglan finished speaking, Zhang Tingshu poured a glass of wine into his stomach. He felt like his mouth was on fire, burning his esophagus, mouth and nose, coughing continuously, and snot and tears came out.Turning around, she grabbed the teapot and poured it into her mouth desperately. Seeing Zhang Tingshu's distressed appearance, Zhang Tinglan couldn't help laughing. The vodka Fred sent was purer and stronger than usual. Can't bear it, how can Zhang Tingshu, a young child, bear it.

After tossing for a while, Zhang Tingshu recovered. He also knew that Zhang Tinglan had tricked him on purpose, so he wanted to settle accounts with Zhang Tinglan angrily.At this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps, and Zhang Xueliang ran over panting.

"Old uncle, Zhuo Yan, the third aunt and wife are arguing to become a monk, please help me find a way!" (To be continued...)
