Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 498 I'm Not Here

Xu Shuzheng turned around on the ground a few times, and then said: "Although Fengjun is under the banner of taking over Suiyuan, they definitely have no good intentions. They just want to take Chahar by the way."

Tian Zhongyu nodded hastily: "The superintendent's eyes are like a torch, and he saw through Fengjun's plot at once, but there is one thing, the direct line is too weak, and it is really unimaginable to let Suiyuan out directly."

"It's nothing strange." Xu Shuzheng waved his hand and said, "What kind of knowledge does Cao Kun have as a cloth seller? Wu Peifu is a good leader in the war, but when it comes to conspiracy and calculation, none of the ten is Zhang Tinglan's opponent. That kid Sell ​​them, and they will help others count the money!"

Listening to Xu Shuzheng's words, Tian Zhongyu was also thoughtful, no matter whether the Zhijun could beat Zhang Tinglan, at least the little Zhuge in front of him was the defeated general.After thinking for a while, Tian Zhongyu said: "Supervisor, if you want to guard Zhangjiakou, I think you must guard Duolun. This is where the military strategists attack, and Chahar's door. There must be no mistakes."

Xu Shuzheng also knows the importance of Duolun. It is about the same distance from Zhangjiakou and Chengde, so it can definitely be called a strategic location.Now Tian Zhongyu raised it to him, obviously hoping that Xu Shuzheng could guard Duo Lun.In the past, Xiao Xu would never have seen Tian Zhongyu in his eyes, but now, he is a down-and-out phoenix not as good as a chicken, and Chahar is Tian Zhongyu's territory, so he has to act as a pawn.

"Tian Dutong, since Duolun is so important, I will take the initiative to ask Ying to go to garrison. But if you want to resist the Feng army, you can't do without fewer troops. You need to send more troops."

"Supervisor, now Chahar only has one mixed brigade that still has combat effectiveness, and I will leave it to you, all depending on the supervisor's arrangement."

Xu Shuzheng also knew that Chahar's troops were limited, so he had no choice but to agree. He immediately counted the soldiers in his hands, and then brought Tian Zhongyu to his troops, and then advanced towards Duolun at the fastest speed.

Just when Xu Shuzheng wanted to make a desperate fight, Zhang Tinglan also dealt with all the broken soldiers in Rehe, and local law and order were restored.The equipment and personnel from Fengtian were also ready. After some discussions, Zhang Tinglan sent two brigades to lead the battle.

Sun Anhu and Jiang Dengxuan each led a brigade. Sun Anhu took the main road to attack Duolun, and then from Duolun to attack Zhangjiakou.Jiang Dengxuan, on the other hand, continued to move along the front line of the Great Wall and directly attacked Zhangjiakou.As for Zhang Tinglan, he led the main force of the 27th Division to follow behind.

On the vast Mongolian grassland, the large troops of the Feng army were marching rapidly, the horseshoes overturned the grass, and the dust dispersed in the sky.On this prairie, for thousands of years, countless heroes have come and gone, vying for the moment.

However, for China, one of the biggest regrets is that the Central Plains Dynasty has always been difficult to really control this place, even now, the princes and nobles of Inner and Outer Mongolia still have a lot of influence, and it is difficult for government agencies to penetrate to the bottom.

"Old 2, Mongolian bandits have been making troubles since the Qing Dynasty. Do you have any good ways to solve this problem?"

"Kill!" Zhang Tingshu waved his palm and said decisively: "I don't believe that there are people in this world who are not afraid of death. As long as they are not afraid of rolling heads and blood flowing into rivers, they can definitely kill the bandits!"

"Yes, that's right!" Wu Kaijie also said beside him, "Even if we kill all the people, we can just keep the land."

Zhang Tinglan said with a wry smile: "What you two said is so reasonable, don't worry, I will never let you garrison the grassland."

"Brother, are you talking the wrong way? Are we right? Why don't you let us take care of the grassland! Let us combine our two swords, and the grassland will definitely be stable."

Zhang Tinglan shook her head: "The Hulu have never had a century-old national fortune since ancient times. The biggest problem is that they can't control their ambitions. They can only see the immediate benefits, but not the long-term. The reason of the two of you is the reason of the Hulu."

"Brother, this Hu Lu is not what you say is right, there must be some basis, otherwise I will not be convinced."

"Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself! Basically, if you violate this rule, you will be barbarians, and you won't be able to last long, because they don't understand the principle that when the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, it will lose."

Zhang Tingshu and Wu Kaijie glanced at each other, wide-eyed and small-eyed, all at a loss, obviously not knowing what Zhang Tinglan would say, Wu Kaijie couldn't help asking: "Zhuoyan, can you talk about a good way to govern the grassland?" , let us also increase our skills."

"Empty your heart, strengthen your belly, weaken your will, and strengthen your bones. If you do these four things, the grassland will be completely calm."

After Zhang Tinglan finished speaking, Wu Kaijie rolled his eyes for a long time, and still couldn't help sighing: "Zhuoyan, why did you play these charades after becoming Lan Shuai, I don't understand at all!"

"I don't understand either." Zhang Tingshu couldn't help but spread his hands.Zhang Tinglan glanced at these two ignorant guys, then shook her head and said: "This is the way of the sage to govern the country taught by Lao Tzu. Now it can be applied to the governance of the grassland. It is perfect. Clean up the bad indoctrination of the Mongolian princes and fill them in." Satisfy the belly of every herdsman, weaken their desire to be independent, and enhance their ability to survive. Doing these four points will not only completely control this land, but also make the millions of herdsmen on this land our steadfast supporter!"

What Zhang Tinglan said is actually his overall strategy for managing Inner and Inner Mongolia in the next step.In fact, to put it bluntly, the core is a word of profit.In order for the herdsmen to really improve their living conditions and fill their stomachs, it is also necessary to allow them to obtain educational opportunities, integrate into Han society, and obtain opportunities and hopes for fair development.As long as this is done, no sane person will have any independent thoughts.

Of course, this is only one aspect. In addition, there is vigorous publicity, correcting people's hearts, and punishing the chief evil, and cleaning up all the princes and dignitaries who are alienated from China. After that, safety can be guaranteed.

When dealing with ethnic issues, there has never been anything that can be seen immediately. This is a difficult time.The Chinese pay attention to entering China, and leaving barbarians.It has never forced and assimilated any nation, but China did absorb the ancient country with the most assimilated nations.On the contrary, a certain big country that advocates human rights and equality in later generations is full of contradictions between races and ethnic groups, even to the point of being incomprehensible. This is the difference between the actions of the Celestial Dynasty and the Hulu.

When dealing with ethnic conflicts, the most taboo thing is the interference of populism, which will only make a big mess of small things. In the face of complex problems, simple and rough handling will cause more serious troubles if the immediate troubles are not resolved.Thinking of this, Zhang Tinglan felt more and more that he should find a seasoned and prudent internal affairs expert to manage Mongolia and mediate the conflicts between all parties.

Zhang Tinglan kept sketching the big plan for managing Mongolia in his mind, and didn't care about how the war would turn out. In fact, he no longer regarded Xu Shuzheng as an opponent.At this time, Xiao Xu and his army were on their way to Duolun. They had traveled more than 100 kilometers, and there was still nearly half of the distance to go.

Suddenly, a few Chahar soldiers stopped suddenly, and the others also stopped, and the marching dragon was immediately affected.Xu Shuzheng frowned, and hurriedly asked Qu Tongfeng to check the situation to see what went wrong.

Not long after, Qu Tongfeng came back in a hurry, and said to Xu Shuzheng: "Supervisor, these guys are asking for military pay, and if they don't pay, they won't leave!"

"Bastard, don't they know that soldiers are precious and fast? If we continue to dawdle like this and let the Feng army occupy Duolun first, wouldn't our previous efforts be for naught." Xu Shuzheng's eyes were burning, and he hurriedly rode his horse to the soldiers. before.

Reining in the horses, Xu Shuzheng looked at these disheveled soldiers, and suddenly a surge of anger surged, and he said loudly: "Don't you know the mission of the soldiers? Now that the enemy is in front of you, you are delaying the progress of the entire army." , do you want to rebel?"

"Sir, we don't have that much courage. It's just that the big guys have been in arrears of military pay for several months. Before leaving, Marshal Tian told us that you are the supervisor, with great powers, and can get the military pay. Now everyone After walking for such a long time, if you don’t pay me any more, we won’t be able to go on!”

After the soldier finished speaking, everyone else did the same, and some simply sat on the ground and started playing hob meat.When Xu Shuzheng saw it, his eyes turned red immediately. He is a defeated general, where can he get his salary?

Xiao Xu wanted to have an attack, but he endured it again. These are Chahar's troops, not junior soldiers. If he shows his power casually, the whole army may collapse.Xu Shuzheng's mind was spinning rapidly, looking for possible solutions.

After a long while, a gleam of joy finally appeared in front of his eyes, and he said to the soldiers: "Brothers, I can indeed get the military salary, but I can't take hundreds of thousands or millions of oceans with me. They all exist in Duolun. When you arrive in Duolun, I will give you double military pay."

"Sir, don't make fun of us. If we arrive in Duolun and have no military pay, who should we turn to?"

"Xu, as the supervisor of the frontier defense, has always spoken well and will never deceive you. At that time, if there is a shortfall, you can come to me with a gun in your hand!"

What Xu Shuzheng said was true, these soldiers finally regained a little confidence, and marched with Xu Shuzheng. After five days of driving out, they arrived in Duolun, and the soldiers were exhausted at this time.

At this time, Xu Shuzheng suddenly called Chen Wenyun and Qu Tongfeng over, and said to them: "Go and control all the businessmen in Duolun now, and also arrest all the princes of Mongolia. As long as they are rich, everyone will be killed." Don't stay, I'll be of great use!" RS, please.

Chapter 499 I'm Not Here

Duolun is an important transportation place on the grassland, with close business contacts. At first, it mainly did business with Beijing and Tianjin. In the past two years, with the rapid development of the three eastern provinces, it has attracted a large amount of materials to flow to the northeast. Duolun is also an important The transfer base gathered a large number of merchants.

Xu Shuzheng ordered to go down, and he arrested hundreds of people, more than half of them were businessmen, and there were more than [-] Mongolian nobles and princes, standing in a large area in black.Xiao Xu walked in front of these people with a cold smile on his lips.

"Everyone, when the army is attacking, everyone is rich. Ordinary merchants have [-] yuan, big merchants [-] yuan, and princes and nobles [-] yuan. For the time being, pay the money first and use it as military expenses. If it is not enough, you can increase it further. In short, everyone should be prepared to contribute financial resources, and pay now!"

"Wishful thinking!" A short and fat young man suddenly stood up and said loudly: "You Han people are fighting wars, why do you ask us for money, my king will never give you a penny, and I will go to Beiyang to report on you for extortion! "

"Yes, De Wang is right, we will not give you money, this is the grassland, we have thousands of warriors, if you dare to move a finger of us, we will wait for these warriors to tear you apart! "

Xu Shuzheng looked playfully at the young man who jumped out at the head. This guy was dressed luxuriously. He looked less than 20 years old, and his face didn't have too many signs of wind and sun.

Others called him King De, and Xu Shuzheng immediately understood who this guy was. He was Prince Demchukdongrup, one of the most important and powerful princes in Inner Mongolia.Although he is not very old, I heard that a group of ambitious guys gathered around him, always trying to provoke the relationship between Han and Meng.The German king also often said something about trying to be independent and self-governing.

The Beiyang government has always had nothing to do with this kind of powerful prince, it can only try to win over him, and just granted him the power to take charge of the banner administration.But this guy still jumped out and dared to challenge him, which made Xu Shuzheng very dissatisfied.

"King De, Xu always counts what he says. If you don't pay the money, you will die, no one is an exception, including you, the noble prince!" Xu Shuzheng approached King De as he said.With a cold smile on his face: "It's over for you to threaten me with Beiyang. Prime Minister Duan has stepped down, and Xu is a lonely ghost. But that's good, there is no burden on the contrary, and I can let go. Put you If you are killed, maybe you can cause some trouble for Zhang Tinglan. Why don't you say I will do it!"

Facing Xu Shuzheng.King De felt uncomfortable all over his body, like a gazelle being targeted by prairie wolves, unable to advance or retreat, and might lose his head at any time.Sweat was already dripping on his plump face, and under Xu Shuzheng's gaze, he couldn't help but take a step back.

Xu Shuzheng waved his hand.A few soldiers rushed over with their guns in hand, and pointed their bright bayonets at De Wang. This guy finally got scared when he saw this.Hastily said: "Don't kill me, I am willing to give money!"

After solving this guy, the others are no longer a problem, so they can only hand in the money honestly. There are more than 100 people in total, and Xu Shuzheng received more than 80 yuan.This amount of money is not too small. The troops he brought in are only in the early 1s, and each person can get an average of 80 yuan, which is enough for them to work hard.

Xu Shuzheng finally showed a smile: "These are distinguished guests, please invite me to the barracks and take good care of them. If there is anything, they must help!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Xu laughed out loud again. When De Wang and others heard this, they dared to feel that the money was not a one-time request, but they were treated as a bank vault, and they could be taken out whenever they needed it. Who can bear it?

"Xu Shuzheng, don't push yourself too hard. If you continue to act recklessly, you will definitely not end well!"

"King De, Xu has already ended well, so you don't need to curse!" Xu Shuzheng turned his head to the soldiers and said, "There are the fattest cattle and sheep in De Wang's mansion, you all get them here, and treat everyone well." , even if it’s the prince’s treat.”

When the soldiers heard that there was beef and mutton to eat, they immediately cheered again, and then went to search for them all. King De was gnashing his teeth and the corners of his eyes were about to burst, but he had no choice but to obey the arrangement obediently.However, this guy was not willing to be manipulated, but kept thinking of ways to deal with it. He wanted Xiao Xu to pay the price for his recklessness.
