"I'm afraid the military exercise is fake, but it is true that we are going to disarm us." Sun Qihe knew what was going on after a little thought.

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Zongchang panicked when he heard that Zhang Zuolin wanted to hand over his weapons.

"Hehe, don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, they won't just hand over our weapons. You have to have some excuses for everything you do. If I'm right, the commander-in-chief wants to use Qiu Cao's name to hand over our weapons." If Qiu Cao doesn't perform well, he's justified." Sun Qihe shook his head and analyzed, looking like a master of Shaoxing.

Sun Qihe guessed right, Zhang Zuolin really wanted to disarm him.Because Zhang Zongchang wanted to expand, a brigade recruited more than 5000 people, and the need for food and salaries became a problem. Zhang Zuolin's salary was not very timely, and Zhang Zongchang's motley crew couldn't take care of it. More than 5000 people are too many, and he can only find a way by himself.

In the end, Zhang Zuolin really thought of a way, which is the above-mentioned kind of opium. He didn't think of this idea at the beginning.Because although the area around Suifenhe is very desolate, he thought that Zhang Zuolin had dealt himself a card by bringing him to this place where no shit.

He thought so. Many people who followed him to the Northeast didn't think so. Although this place is desolate, the land is very fertile. They reclaimed the land to make a living, planted opium, and started drug trafficking.Later, Zhang Zongchang found out about it, and he thought it was a good idea, so he decided to do it himself to buy wheat.

After Zhang Zongchang went to the Wuzhan area to take over as the guardian envoy of Suining, he took over the "Yuning Company" originally founded by Wu Guangxin. This company nominally cultivated wasteland, but in fact it grew very little food, mainly growing opium.

This year, the company produced 28 catties of opium, worth 20 yuan per catty, and the total output value reached 560 million yuan. Zhang Zongchang taxed at 50%, that is, more than [-] yuan.

In addition to Yuning Company, Zhang Zongchang also set up his own police corps, farmers' association, chamber of commerce, street foundation, house land sales, and land tax collection. All were managed by the company, and local governments were not allowed to intervene.for

In order to expand the salary source, in addition to banning opium, "official bureaus", "meeting bureaus", smoke houses, brothels, etc. gathered, making the Suifenhe area extremely prosperous for a while.

Zhang Zongchang, who had money, had an order to expand his troops, so he was able to expand his troops to more than 5000 in just one year.Zhang Zongchang's power expanded, but it also aroused the suspicion and jealousy of many of Zhang Zuolin's subordinates.

People around Zhang Zuolin often said bad things about Zhang Zongchang, some said that Zhang Zongchang's troops were messy, and many of them were green and grassy. He knew all day long that he planted opium in Wuzhan, started gambling games, sold drugs, and searched for people's wealth. The people complained a lot;

Some said that Zhang Zongchang's army private traders evaded taxes and did not do business properly;

Some said that Zhang Zongchang was right about the lack of soldiers, and that all the officials were short-sufficient. They were a mob with no fighting power at all;

Some people simply said that Zhang Zongchang was preparing to rebel, wanted to overthrow the commander-in-chief, had the ambition to rebel against Feng, and if he wanted to mobilize him, he would not obey orders.

Zhang Zuolin didn't care about these rumors at first, he knew that his subordinates didn't think much of Zhang Zongchang.So he didn't take it very seriously, but once he saw something with his own eyes that aroused some doubts in him.

Once Zhang Zongchang went to Fengtian to have an audience with Zhang Zuolin to report on his work. He led a group of public and private drug dealers who followed him and swarmed around in order to evade official inspections for tax evasion.It happened that Zhang Zuolin had something to go out to see this incident that day, which made him very unhappy but did not explode.

As time went by, people often complained that Zhang Zuolin couldn't stand it anymore, especially Zhang Zuolin's chief counselor Yang Yuting suggested to Zhang Zuolin several times to remove Zhang Zongchang's establishment and let him go.

Before the military exercise, Zhang Zuolin said to people in private: "It's really outrageous to spend so much money every year to support a group of troops who run casinos and grow opium. gone."

Hearing what Sun Qihe said, Zhang Zongchang knew what he was saying, and he thought that fortunately, I had listened to my son's advice and started training soldiers, otherwise this time it was really doomed.

Knowing Zhang Zuolin's problem was much easier, Zhang Zongchang ordered the troops to assemble and march towards Huaide County immediately. At the same time, the army's firearms and ammunition were also transported to Erdaogou Station with the army, and a list was prepared for review.

Zhang Xueliang, who was sitting in the office, was a little stunned when he heard the report outside the door that Zhang Zongchang asked to see him. He didn't expect that Zhang Zongchang's troops would arrive today with the order issued yesterday.I didn't expect Zongchang's troops to march very fast. You must know that some people even said that Zhang Zongchang didn't dare to come at all, and he probably ran away long ago.I didn't expect him not only to arrive, but also so fast.

"Brigade Commander Zhang please come in!" Zhang Xueliang ordered loudly.

Chapter 11 You are Kissing My Dad

Seeing Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Zongchang gave a military salute: "Zhang Zongchang, commander of the third brigade of the Jilin Defense Army, was ordered to lead his troops to report."

"Brigadier Zhang, you are welcome, please sit down." Zhang Xueliang smiled and beckoned Zhang Zongchang to sit down.

"Thank you, young commander." Zhang Zongchang sat on the bench next to him.

"Why did Brigadier Zhang come so quickly? I just gave the order yesterday." Zhang Xueliang asked.

"After receiving the military order, I didn't dare to neglect for a moment, and immediately assembled the troops and drove over." Zhang Zongchang explained.

Zhang Xueliang was very happy, Zhang Zongchang's actions completely relieved his heart, and he was also afraid that Zhang Zongchang would not give in to discipline.What Zhang Zuolin said is that disarming is disbanding. He does not agree with it from the bottom of his heart, nor is he willing.After all, Zhang Zongchang is Zhang Anle's father, if he is really disarmed like this, how can Zhang Anle explain when he comes back.

"Okay, go to the quartermaster office to get the supplies. The military exercise will start after 7 days. If you have nothing to do, you can go around." Zhang Xueliang began to thank the guests.

Zhang Zongchang got up, gave a military salute and left.

The next few days were calm, and the military exercise finally started. Inspection committee members Li Jinglin, Zhang Xueliang, etc., accompanied by Zhang Zongchang, went to Erdaogou to inspect weapons and equipment.

In addition to some of the weapons provided by Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zongchang bought some weapons from Lao Maozi himself, and some Zhang Anle bought him from abroad.Zhang Zongchang is a smart man, he did not bring the best weapons and equipment, those treasures that can be pressed by himself.

Even so, Zhang Xueliang was surprised by some of his weapons and equipment. There were as many as 500 copper telegraphs alone.

Zhang Xueliang asked Zhang Zongchang: "Where did you get these things?"

Zhang Zongchang replied, "It was sent by the Belarusian army."

Zhang Xueliang pointed to the melon-style grenade again, "What about these?"

Zhang Zongchang said: "I bought this, two yuan for Ha Dayang."

Zhang Xueliang and Li Jinglin are still very satisfied with their weapons and equipment. Although some guns are a little outdated, they are well maintained.After their review, the troops began autumn exercises on the vast fields of Huaide.First, Li Jinglin held a military parade, and then began large-scale field exercises.

After the exercise, the third brigade not only had sufficient numbers, but also was extremely strong. During the exercise, all operations were accurate, the movements were serious, and meticulous.Especially the 80-mile emergency march exercise, when the weather changed suddenly and it rained heavily.The troops were marching on the muddy and snowy ground, which brought great inconvenience to Yanyi.

"I don't know who can arrive on time for this exercise." Zhang Xueliang has both expectations and worries about the troops, after all, the snow is too heavy.

The first to arrive was the Third Mixed Brigade of Fengtian Army, Zhang Xueliang's direct descendant, Zhang Xueliang was very happy.

Except for the third mixed brigade, no other troops could come. Just when the time was about to end, another group of troops arrived, which turned out to be Zhang Zongchang's troops.They arrived on time, right to the minute, and no one was left behind.

This incident changed Fengjun's view of Zhang Zongchang, and all the bad rumors about him disappeared.

After the hasty march came offensive and defensive drills. Zhang Zongchang's troops were ordered to stay in place and wait for orders.The university has accumulated more than a foot deep.

The soldiers of the army lay down on the snow, with no sorghum roots, and it was extremely muddy. Many people were injured during the exercise under such harsh conditions.Seeing this, Zhang Zongchang felt very unhappy.

While resting they found three houses in the field, in which no one lived.Zhang Zongchang, Wang Hanming and others went into the house to take shelter from the wind and snow. They took out the soju they brought with them and drank it.

While drinking, Zhang Zongchang grumbled, cursing: "****, I don't know who's grandson's plan is this, to make us look like bears."

As soon as his voice fell, Guo Songling suddenly pushed the door in and asked Zhang Zongchang angrily, "Who were you scolding just now?"

Zhang Zongchang saw that Guo Songling came in and said: "This is my oral language, and I didn't scold anyone."

Guo Songling became even angrier when she heard the words, pointing at the bridge of Zhang Zongchang's nose and yelling: "I'm fucking! This is also my spoken language! Is it okay?"

When Zhang Zongchang heard this, his face turned from red to black, and he turned over from the kang and jumped down.Everyone thought that Zhang Zongchang had lost his temper and was about to turn his face. Several people put their hands on their gun holsters, ready to draw their guns at any time.

Guo Songling was also a little annoyed that she was too impulsive. Although her troops were not far from here, if something really happened, her head would probably bloom first.

Who knew that Zhang Zongchang jumped off the kang, and immediately changed his words and said to Guo Songling: "Master Guo, you fuck my mother, you are my real father, what else can you say?"

Guo Songling was completely speechless when he heard this, turned around and left with a cold snort.

After leaving the house, Guo Songling was so frightened that her back was completely wet. If Zhang Zongchang opened fire just now, she would have confessed to this place.But Zhang Zongchang is shameless enough to call him father, you must know that he is two years older than himself.

After Guo Songling went out, Zhang Zongchang looked at his subordinates with puzzled eyes and explained: "I call him Dad, but he is not my dad. If we turned our backs just now, I am afraid that our more than 1 brothers will not be able to leave this Huaide County."

Only then did everyone know that Zhang Zongchang was willing to be humiliated to protect the army and everyone, and everyone was very grateful to him and more loyal to him.

Later, when Li Jinglin heard about this incident, he invited Zhang Xueliang to be a peacemaker and treat them to dinner.
