Now Yang Yuting understood Zhang Tinglan's plan, he couldn't help but put his thumbs up, and laughed loudly: "Zhuoyan, your trick is really good, no matter how many people they can recruit, as long as the internal chaos , It won’t be broken by itself, no matter how many people there are.”

Sending traitors is a very common method on the battlefield. Moreover, in order to expand their power, He Tianjiong and others are so hungry for personnel that they want anyone. There is a huge loophole hidden in it, which just gives Zhang Tinglan an opportunity.

"Zhuoyan, who did you send there?"

"It was the new Zhang Henian who took refuge in him. I changed his name to Zhang Haitian, and selected more than [-] smart soldiers, disguised them as a gang of bandits, and went to join the Revolutionary Party."

"That kid is a bandit, he is born to be a bandit, I think it is very suitable, but it is a bit weak to send a group, let's send more people there."

When Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting were discussing, Zhang Henian had already entered Zhuanghe territory with dozens of soldiers. Before he had gone far, he met a group of people who happened to come from another fork in the road, and the two sides collided.

This group of people was dressed gaudyly, some were wearing old sheepskin jackets, some were wearing ragged cotton clothes, two of them were the worst, their bodies were wrapped in cotton quilts and tied with hemp rope, and they still looked like kimonos.

They are dressed in all kinds of clothes, and the weapons in their hands are also strange. Some are holding earthen guns, some are holding machetes, red-tasseled guns, etc. They look like jugglers and bandits.

The leading boy was in his thirties, thin and dry, with two yellow eyes rolling around. They also noticed people like Zhang Henian early on. They were neatly dressed and held rifles in their hands. They were around [-] each, looking very healthy , the kid thought carefully.

"Brother, are you going to Zhuanghe to make a fortune? My servant gave me the nickname Yellow Wolf, and I also have one in southern Liaoning. This time, I will bring my brothers to participate in this grand event. How about we go together?"

Zhang Henian didn't want to run amok, he could act with other bandits and conceal their identities.So he said: "Brother Huanglang, in Zhang Haitian, it is fate to meet each other, and we can take care of each other."

The two groups joined together, and the team more than doubled in size. Huang Lang saw that Zhang Henian and the others were different from ordinary bandits, so he asked, "Brother Haitian, what did you do?"

"To be honest, we were actually guarding Xiuyan's jade mines for Lord Qing Yi Kuang, but the Fengjun confiscated all the jade mines. The brothers had nowhere to go. When they heard that Zhuanghe was recruiting, they came here to seek refuge. "

When Huang Lang heard this, he nodded quickly, no wonder this group of people are so aggressive.It turned out that they were doing business for the prince, so they were naturally different from the mob.The yellow wolf also felt a sense of awe.

"Brother Haitian. Just because you are doing things for the prince, it proves that you are both capable. After you arrive in Zhuanghe, you will definitely be reused, at least as a company commander."

"Borrowing the good words from Brother Yellow Wolf, we actually just want to get some money. Then we can enjoy ourselves in the world of flowers in the pass."

"That's right, whoever is willing to work hard is the grandson. This time the Fengjun did too dishonorably, and they all came from the green forest. Now they fly to Gaozhi'er, and they look down on the Jianghu people in turn. What kind of militia are they? With the militia patrolling above and the officers and soldiers in the back, who would dare to rob merchants? How can this Jianghu people continue to mess around?"

Yellow Wolf complained all the way, Zhang Henian agreed without saying a word, they walked for a while, and met two groups of people one after another, one was thugs raised by the landlord, and the other was members of the gang.

Everyone gathered together, there were two or three hundred people, and when they got deep into the territory of Zhuanghe, there were people from the revolutionary party who were in charge of standing guard on the road. There were also many people who came to seek refuge these days. After asking, Zhang Henian and the others were arranged in a town near the county seat.

There have been more than [-] miscellaneous soldiers gathered here, all of them shouting and drinking, it's very lively.When Zhang Henian was driving at the landlord's house, he often dealt with this kind of people, so he quickly got along with this group of people. He was good at shooting, and the marksmanship of his brothers were amazing. long.

After waiting for more than ten days in a row, people came to promote it every night. Basically, the first group of people came to overthrow Yuan Shikai, abolish the monarchy, restore the Republic of China and so on.The second wave of people came and said they wanted to take back the land and kill Feng Jun and those daring mud legs.The third wave is the remnants of the Clan Socialist Party, and they want to restore the Qing Dynasty.

This is not over yet, sometimes the Japanese come over and say nonsense about the friendship between China and Japan, which makes Zhang Henian very funny, and this gang of mobs ignore these words, what they care about is how much benefit they give themselves , How much money and food can I have every day, everything else is bullshit.

Zhang Henian was not idle either. He used this time to learn about various situations in detail. He knew that there were a dozen or so such garrison points, with a total strength of nearly 4000 troops, which was not a small force.

After tossing for half a month, that night, He Tianjiong and Gu Renyi appeared together, and behind them were a few Japanese who brought a large number of guns. Zhang Henian, the cheap battalion commander, organized everyone to get the guns.

Some of these guns are [-]-style rifles, and there are many old-fashioned singles. Each person is issued a gun and returned ten yuan Japanese gold notes.

After the weapons and money were all distributed, He Tianjiong said to them: "Brothers, General Cai E is winning every victory, and Yuan Shikai is about to die. We must also take action to fight against Yuan together. I declare the official establishment of the Fengtian Protectorate , set off now and attack Zhuanghe."

After an order was given, these mobs all set off together, each holding a torch, looking from a distance, they looked like fire dragons, after walking for more than ten miles, the same fire dragons appeared one after another in other directions, and everyone gathered together Together, they will besiege Zhuanghe.

The revolutionaries have been making trouble for such a long time, and the officials in Zhuang Hanoi have known about it for a long time. Now that they have finally launched, the gang has almost run away. He Tianjiong and Gu Renyi personally commanded the gang and charged into the to the city.

How could this group of bandits have any discipline? After entering the city, they began to plunder crazily, looting whatever they saw. Major shops and even ordinary people's homes were not spared.

He Tianjiong didn't care about the misdeeds and evils of his subordinates anymore. He couldn't wait to raise the banner of Fengtian to protect **, and issued a notice to ask Yuan.

With a leader, there is no need to worry about no one to follow, not only the Revolutionary Party, but other guys who want to fish in troubled waters have also jumped out.In addition to Zhuanghe, Yingkou, Haicheng, Fengcheng, Dandong and other places have successively appeared banners protecting the **, and the land of southern Liaoning is surging.

Zhang Tinglan, who was in the center of the storm, was very calm on the contrary, without too much impatience. He dispatched soldiers unhurriedly to wipe out those rebels everywhere, but Zhang Tinglan avoided Zhuanghe intentionally or unintentionally, and let the revolutionaries There's a lot of nonsense here.

Zhang Tinglan's ability to sit still and fish does not mean that other people are also so calm. After the Emperor Yuan of Beijing heard that there was a revolutionary party in Fengtian, he was so anxious that he almost vomited blood. Only Zhang Zuolin was such a loyal minister, but there were problems under his rule. , Isn't this Tianjue Hongxian!

Chapter 173

"Old Yuan sent us a telegram again, asking us to solve the problem in southern Liaoning as soon as possible."

"Marshal, they are all a bunch of mobs. Don't worry about it. It's easy to wipe them out if you have a clumsy command." Yuan Jinkai said to Lao Zhang: "The trouble is the attitude of Japan. The Japanese want to stop confiscating the land of the Eight Banners as soon as possible. , still protesting our abuse of justice.”

"The old and the young are all Japanese dogs. Naturally, they don't want to see the dogs die so badly. But if we don't confiscate the land, how can we solve the financial gap?"

Wang Yongjiang said loudly: "Marshal, you must resist the pressure no matter what. As long as the land is disposed of, I am sure that I will have a surplus of 500 million yuan this year. Within three years, I will repay all the money owed by Fengtian for many years." , can also repair water conservancy, build schools and factories, and Fengjun can also expand its military strength."

It can make Wang Yongjiang risk the world's disgrace and insist on confiscating the land of the Eight Banners. The biggest driving force is income. The common people have changed from tenant farmers to self-cultivated farmers. The hidden land has been cleaned up, and Fengtian's land tax can be increased by more than half. With this money , there are so many things that can be done.

Not only Wang Yongjiang was attracted by these profits, but even Lao Zhang went crazy. In addition to the increase in land tax, Zhang Zuolin was fascinated by the floating wealth of nearly ten million. Changing clothes, you can use money to clear the way, buy other forces over, and rule the sky.

This is Zhang Zuolin's goal all along, how could he give up easily.

"The Japanese protested against them. We procrastinated and acted faster. At the beginning of spring, we should deal with almost all the land. Don't delay the spring plowing. When it's done, the Japanese can't say anything."

Lao Zhang said again: "The troops in southern Liaoning seem to be a little weak. I'm going to send a battalion there."

"Since we need to send reinforcements, I suggest sending a cavalry battalion there. Zhuoyan's subordinates are already very good at fighting, what is lacking is mobility, and it happens that speed is also important in suppressing bandits." Sun Liechen expressed his opinion.

Lao Zhang immediately nodded in agreement, and at this time Zhang Zuoxiang also spoke: "Marshal, Brother Ma is still unresponsive at this point in the development of southern Liaoning. Some people shouldn't."

Ma Longtan's actions were indeed too slow, and Lao Zhang was also very dissatisfied. He had already sent several telegrams to Ma Longtan, but Ma Longtan just perfunctory, but did not take any action.

But Ma Longtan is his sworn brother again.The qualifications are too old, and Lao Zhang can't blame too much.

"I'll send someone to contact Brother Ma. Ask him to pay more attention. Don't let the traitor take advantage of it."

At this time, Zhang Tinglan commanded the army to sweep out several rebellious bandits in a row. Among them were bandits and bandits, as well as disgruntled landlords, but they were all in a hurry, ready to rush, and wiped out them as soon as the army passed by. .

Feng Jun is like an iron plow.As soon as they passed by, the militia was established, and the local management power changed hands. The power in Zhang Tinglan's hands became stronger and stronger. It seemed that the other small groups of gangsters had no ability to challenge at all.So they either died down, or they went to join Zhuanghe's revolutionary party.

The reshuffle in southern Liaoning is still going on, the cavalry battalion sent by Lao Zhang has arrived, and there are two people in charge of commanding, the battalion commander is Ma Zhanshan, and the deputy battalion commander is Wu Kaijie.

Few people don’t know about Ma Zhanshan. After the September [-]th Incident, Ma Zhanshan led his troops to fight the Japanese many times, and was honored as an anti-Japanese hero. Although Ma Zhanshan also had the taint of surrendering to Japan, he was still a hero.

He was also from Greenwood, and was later incorporated by Wu Junsheng and served as the company commander. During the attack on Chifeng, Ma Zhanshan performed bravely and was promoted to battalion commander.Immediately, Lao Wu sent him to inspect the pastures of the Eight Banners in Taonan, and the task was completed beautifully. Now that southern Liaoning is in urgent need of troops, Ma Zhanshan's troops were sent here.

At this time, Ma Zhanshan did not have a great name in later generations, and he was just an ordinary mid-level officer in the Fengjun. He still admired Zhang Tinglan, a man of great power.

"Tuan Zhang, Brigadier Wu has explained before coming here that everything is under the arrangement of Commander Zhang. You let me go east, and we will never go west."

"If I can get the cooperation of Battalion Commander Ma, I will be more confident."

"Brother Zhuoyan, after this battle, I'm afraid you will be brigade commander. Among our younger generation, you are the one!" Wu Kaijie stretched out his thumb, obviously very envious, Although Lao Wu worked hard to train him, he didn't dare to encourage him, so he could only let him accept training step by step.

The last time he caught Mi Zhenbiao, he showed his face to Old Wu and was promoted to deputy battalion commander. As long as he practiced a bit, he would be able to skyrocket.

"Don't worry, there will be more opportunities to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield in the future. Last time I caught Mi Zhenbiao, this time I caught He Tianjiong."

"Brother Zhuoyan, when did you give the order to launch an attack? Everyone is a little impatient. It's really annoying to let those bastards be arrogant."
