In the noisy teahouse, there was a person sitting there in the corner, listening carefully to the speech on the radio, while writing down something on paper

The annual speech in 1926 did not have much substantive content. It was mainly a summary of last year's work and a plan for this year's work.

After the speech, the man left the teahouse and called a rickshaw to the Japanese consulate.

Soon the Kwantung Army Command received a telegram, which was sent directly to the desk of Kwantung Army Commander Shirakawa Yoshinori. Seeing this telegram, the first thing Shirakawa Yoshinori saw was the Armored Division.

Armored Division is still a term at this time, and he doesn't know what the concept of this Armored Division is. Bai Chuanyi drew a circle with a pencil to mark it, and then it was the shipbuilding plan in the Northwest District.

1520 ships. Zhang Anle purchased more than 30 large and small ships from the United Kingdom last year. In addition to the original Northwest Army Navy of the Bohai Sea Fleet, there are already more than 40 warships. Although the warships sold to Zhang Anle by the hateful British are not Goods, but many ships are still much better than those domestic ships. If Zhang Anle has 20 more warships, the Bohai Fleet with 60 warships can even fight the Imperial Navy.

Thinking of this, Bai Chuanyi suddenly became a little frightened. When did China have such a force? The army has more than 20 troops, and the navy has more than 30 ships. The imperial army stationed in North Korea is not an opponent of the Northwest Army

"Zhang Anle..." Bai Chuanyi pondered for a while before muttering to himself

Zhang Anle didn't know that there were still people thinking about him far away in the Northeast. After delivering the New Year's speech at the radio station, he went to the district government to attend the New Year's tea party for representatives from all walks of life. This meeting should have been held before New Year's Day. It is inappropriate for him not to come to this meeting, so it was postponed to New Year's Day

In fact, the main purpose of the tea party is to maintain the relationship between the government and all walks of life. The tea party lasted from morning to afternoon, and at the end was a dinner. Zhang Anle, who never drank much, also drank more than a catty of wine

He didn't know until the next day that it was very lively on New Year's Day. On this day, the Second National Congress of the Kuomintang was held in Guangzhou.

On the same day, in order to find a better way out for the national army, Feng Yuxiang went to the field by telegram, and handed over the troops to the released Prime Minister Zhang Zhijiang, and prepared to go to the Soviet Union for inspection.

The first thing Zhang Zhijiang did after taking over the National Army was to turn on the power again to return to Wu Peifu's banner. Wu Peifu insisted that the National Army must surrender, which made Zhang Zhijiang and the generals of the National Army unacceptable.

"Commander, Zhang Zhijiang sent a letter." Zhang Anle just arrived at the headquarters, and Yang Du took a letter and walked in

"What was written in the letter?" Zhang Anle thought that he had nothing to do with Zhang Zhijiang. After arresting him, he wanted to meet this martial artist who was as famous as Li Jinglin, but Yan Xishan repeatedly asked Zhang Zhijiang and Li Mingzhong to be released, and Zhang Anle didn't want to either. After brushing off Yan Xishan's face, let them go

"He wants to lead the National Army to the Northwest Army." Yang Du said Zhang Zhijiang's meaning in just a few words

"The National Army belongs to the Northwest Army, he is not joking." Zhang Anle thinks this joke is not funny at all, because the National Army was called the Northwest Army in history, and Zhang Zhijiang really returned to the Northwest Army, which is equivalent to returning to history

"Of course not. Feng Yuxiang's resignation is actually based on retreating to keep the National Army as much as possible. Many of his generals don't want to do this. As the acting commander of the National Army, Zhang Zhijiang did this to find an extra way to take them in now. There is only our Northwest Army. The 30 troops of Lu Jun Zhang Shuai can be said to be the limit that Shandong can support. The President can afford it, but the President hates Feng Yuxiang the most now. The same is true for Wu Peifu in Hubei. He insisted on disarming the national army, but how could the national army disarm if it was defeated?" Yang Du analyzed the current major forces for Zhang Anle

"But taking in the National Army is equivalent to offending other forces. Neither the President nor Wu Peifu will welcome me. Besides, there are nearly 30 Northwest Army. Where will I put them?" Zhang Anle also knows that he can take in these people now , but this group of people is a big force, he is afraid that there will be troubles if they are taken in

"It's simple. We can also reorganize the national army. Didn't your annual speech want to expand five divisions? The five divisions also have an establishment of 8 people. The troops that Zhang Zhijiang can bring are only 20 troops. Take down their elites, and the rest will be dismissed." Yang Du has thought of a way

"You have to think about it carefully." Zhang Anle knew that in history, because the Northwest Army fought against Wu Peifu, Zhang Zongchang, Zhang Zuolin and others in the north, the KMT's Northern Expedition would go so smoothly. If he had captured the Nationalist Army so early, Will the Kuomintang continue the Northern Expedition?

The Kuomintang did not make the Northern Expedition, and when Sun Chuanfang and Wu Peifu recovered, China would still be divided by warlords, so the people would have to continue to suffer from more wars

Zhang Anle's original plan was to take a break for a few years until the Northwest's economy and industry had a solid foundation to unify the country in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the inertia of history was so great. Feng Yuxiang, who only occupied one province, dared to turn against Feng Yuxiang, who disrupted his plans all at once. Deployment, his Northwest Army had to send troops under such circumstances

"By the way, sir, how is the situation in the south?" Zhang Anle suddenly remembered this matter, so he couldn't keep thinking about this side, how is the situation in the south?

"When the Nationalist Government was established last year, the National Revolutionary Army was expanded to 10 armies. In October last year, the "Attacking Hubei Army" in Hunan was reorganized as the No.10 Army. Li Zongren, the leader of the Revolutionary Army of the Republic of China, has a total of twelve armies, with a strength of 11." Yang Du is now in charge of the intelligence system, and he remembers these things very well.

15, Zhang Anle remembers that the Northern Expedition in history never had so many people. 15 troops, thousands of students who graduated from Whampoa, plus political and ideological work at all levels from top to bottom, such a team is really difficult to defeat

"In this case, tell Zhang Zhijiang that we can take over the national army and he will withdraw from Rehe, Zhili and Tianjin, and return to Henan." Zhang Anle thought for a while, and made up his mind. Since there is a chance to take Henan without bloodshed, why not do it Woolen cloth

"Have you decided?" Yang Du looked at Zhang Anle, who was still hesitating just now, and confirmed.

"Hehe, it's decided. I was afraid that I would be too full just now. Now that I think about it, I eat one more, and I eat two more." Zhang Anle laughed and continued, "The President is also going Send a telegram and don’t let him misunderstand us.”

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter." Yang Du knew that Zhang Anle was worried and Zhang Zuolin was dissatisfied with him. In fact, it was already like this, so there was no need to care too much about Zhang Zuolin's opinion. He didn't know that what Zhang Anle cared about was not Zhang Zuolin, but Zhang Zuolin. Zhang Xueliang

Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhijiang gave me such a big gift just after the new year. It seems that this year's luck is good, Zhang Anle thought while looking at the back of Yang Du's departure (to be continued)

a family of scholars

Chapter 65 parted ways

After reading Zhang Anle's reply, Zhang Zhijiang was very happy. He actually disapproved of Feng Yuxiang's opposition to Fengpao from the very beginning (it's just that Feng Yuxiang in the national army is like an emperor, with absolute power, and generals who make mistakes have to kneel and punish Zhang Zhijiang I have worked with Feng Yuxiang for so many years, and I can see who he is, so I only execute and do not express opinions

Now things are messed up, he slapped his ass and walked away Now leave this mess to yourself, all the forces around you are offended, if you resist desperately, you will only die

He discussed this issue with Li Mingzhong when he was imprisoned by Yan Xishan in Shanxi. The two analyzed the current situation and found that there were only two ways to go. South and North echo

It turned out that Feng Yuxiang's plan was the latter, but the Kuomintang in the south has been fighting among themselves. Even if Hu Hanmin is out of the country, he is still fighting. He has been waiting for the national army and the northern warlords to fight to the death, and he jumped out to reap the benefits of the fisherman

Neither Wu Peifu nor Zhang Zuolin accepted them, so he approached Zhang Anle resolutely, Zhang Anle agreed, and now at least some of the brothers can stop fighting for the time being

Before the rebellion, the national army had a total of twelve divisions, nearly 20 people. On the eve of the rebellion, six divisions were added, and the strength reached 30 to 30. He doesn't have a clue, but he'll have an answer soon

"Commander-in-Chief, everyone is here," Zhang Zhijiang's adjutant came over and said

Zhang Zhijiang walked into the meeting room, where the commanders of the [-]th Infantry Division and the two cavalry brigades, the Five Tiger Generals, the Thirteenth Taibao, Yang Hucheng, and Li Huchen, a total of [-] people attended the meeting.

Zhang Zhijiang didn't sit in the top seat, but sat in his usual seat

"At the beginning of the fight against rebellion, we had Wu Peifu and Sun Chuanfang as allies in the south and Li Jinglin, Guo Songling, and Yan Xishan in the north. In just two months, Guo Songling was defeated, Yan Xishan surrendered, Li Jinglin and Wu Peifu turned against us, and only our national army was left struggling Before the commander-in-chief of our army of 30 soldiers and millions of rebels left the field, he entrusted me with the heavy burden of the National Army, and let me keep the fire of the National Army no matter what.” Having said that, Zhang Zhijiang looked around and some of you listened carefully So, some people are whispering with others there, I don’t know what they are talking about_哪&书&

"I know that I am short-sighted. The main purpose of bringing everyone together today is to discuss where our national army will go. Now it seems that we still have two options. The first is to continue to resist. I just said that our army has 30 soldiers. Millions of people, this is not a good choice, and the other is peace talks, but everyone knows that Wu Peifu insists that we put down our weapons and disarm before we can talk about peace talks instead of surrender. How can we disarm! Zhang Zuolin is also unwilling to accept us. Discussed with Xiaodong and sent a letter to Zhang Anle of the Northwest Army. He replied that he agreed that we should join the Northwest Army, but asked us to withdraw from Zhili and Rehe.”

"Zhili and Rehe were brought down by you. Xiaodong and I didn't take part in it, so I dare not make decisions for you. I called everyone here today to discuss what to do. Let me talk about it here." Zhang Zhijiang said Analyzed the current form, then sat there without speaking

"I think it's a good idea to join the Northwest Army." Chief of Staff Shi Jingting spoke first, "Whether it's Wu Peifu or Zhang Zuolin, we have deep hatred, but Zhang Anle has no dispute with us, let alone he doesn't want us to disarm."

"Disarming is not necessary, but disarmament is indispensable." Liu Yufen continued, "Look at Yan Xishan, [-] out of the [-] divisions have been laid off, and there are [-] divisions left. How many of our [-] divisions are left? Three? Five?" ? Now everyone is division commander, army commander, and in a blink of an eye, brigade commander, regiment commander, who is doing it, what are you doing?"

Liu Yufen is now the commander of the Beiping Garrison, and there is no way for him to give up

"Commander Liu is right. We are now discussing war or peace. The main reason is to preserve our strength. If it is really the same as Yan Xishan, if a dozen divisions are abolished and only three or four are left, then it is better to fight." Sun Liangcheng, Liu Yufen's subordinate As soon as Liu Yufen finishes speaking, immediately follow

"I also don't agree with disarmament, and Zhili and Rehe were fought by brothers desperately. If you withdraw as soon as you say, the brothers' blood will be shed for nothing." Lu Zhonglin, who has served as the governor of Rehe, heard this How could they agree to disarmament and withdraw from Jehol?

"I agree with Commander Lu's point of view. Zhili and Rehe were fought down by brothers desperately, and they can't just withdraw." Song Zheyuan, the governor of Zhili, also disagreed.

"Well, let's all raise your hands, and those who agree to join the Northwest Army raise their hands." Zhang Zhijiang didn't let the rest of the people talk anymore, he knew that there were only two ways to go, so he raised his hands after speaking

Li Mingzhong, Sun Lianzhong, Liang Guanying, Shi Jingting, Zhang Zizhong, Feng Zhi'an, Ji Hongchang, Yang Hucheng and Li Huchen raised their hands, plus Zhang Zhijiang exactly ten people

"What about those who support Commander Liu's opinion?" Zhang Zhijiang asked

Liu Yufen, Lu Zhonglin, Song Zheyuan, Han Fuju, Shi Yousan, Liu Ruming, Sun Liangcheng, Zheng Dazhang, Sun Weixi, and Tong Linge also raised their hands to ten people, exactly half and half

"Half and half, let's go back and think about it in the afternoon before deciding or..."

Before Zhang Zhijiang finished speaking, Lu Zhonglin spoke

"I don't think there is any need to think about it. Let's do our own thing. The commander-in-chief will stay in Henan with the troops. Commander Song and I will guard Rehe and Zhili. If we lose, we can still rely on the commander-in-chief in the future."

It seems that they have discussed it long ago. In fact, this situation is too normal. Feng Yuxiang sent Zhang Zhijiang and Li Mingzhong to Shanxi, Song Zheyuan and Lu Zhonglin to fight Beiping, and the other to fight Tianjin. He, Liu Yufen took two of his divisions to Peiping. In this way, seven of the eighteen divisions remained in Henan, plus the two divisions of Zhang Zhijiang and Li Mingzhong, exactly nine divisions. What Zhang Zhijiang did not expect was that Yang Hucheng He and Li Huchen were willing to come back, but Sun Weixi and Shi Yousan were unwilling to stay in Henan. In this way, it is much easier to organize the nine divisions into three divisions than the eighteen divisions.

After making up his mind, Zhang Zhijiang looked at Li Mingzhong and Shi Jingting, both of them nodded
