Chapter 605: The War Resumes in the Northeast (3)

After receiving the order from the People's Army, Zhang Zuolin couldn't help but hesitate, because someone reminded Zhang Zuolin that he should guard against the People's Army and not trust them too much. Because they are two Japanese who have been living in the Bajiaotai area, they tried their best to persuade Zhang Zuolin to be cautious and not careless.

Although Zhang Zuolin has defected to the People's Army, he has never completely severed contact with Japan, although from Zhang Zuolin's heart, he does hope that the East China Government can rule in the Northeast for a long time, but in the current situation is not completely clear, Zhang Zuolin does not dare to bet on the side of the East China Government, so as to maintain relations with Japan, and of course Japan does not want to completely give up Zhang Zuolin, but also hopes to pull Zhang Zuolin to the Japanese side, after all, Zhang Zuolin is one of the largest local armed forces in Northeast China, if Zhang Zuolin can be pulled over, of course, it can pose a great threat to the East China Government, which is conducive to Japan's actions。

In addition, in the area under the jurisdiction of Zhang Zuolin, it is more relaxed than the direct area under the jurisdiction of the People's Army, and it is also conducive to the activities of Japanese intelligence personnel. Therefore, Japan set up an intelligence point in the vicinity of Octagonal Terrace, and stationed two intelligence officers there for a long time, on the one hand, to collect intelligence and observe changes in the current situation, and on the other hand, to try to win over Zhang Zuolin. However, the current situation is unfavorable to Japan, so there is no dry goods to convince Zhang Zuolin, Bi Jing Zhang Zuolin is not so foolish, so in recent times the main target is Zhang Zuolin's people, last time Tang Yulin advocated turning his face with the People's Army and snatching the weapons of the People's Army, but it was actually instigated by Japanese spies behind his back.

Although Zhang Zuolin also knew that the Japanese were sowing discord, it did touch his heart, because Zhang Zuolin was really not sure what the purpose of the People's Army was, whether he really needed his own help to guard the railway line, or whether he wanted to take the opportunity to trap himself or control himself.

Although Zhang Zuolin had been to Shenyang before, he only brought more than 20 people to Shenyang at that time, and the team stayed in the Octagonal Platform, so that at least Zhang Zuolin recognized that the Wei People's Army would have some scruples, but this time the People's Army asked him to take 2,000 people to Shenyang, which accounted for most of his team.

Zhang Zuolin also knew that he was indeed not clean, and Bi Jing was now cut off from Japan, but this was enough for the People's Army to have a good reason to get rid of him. In fact, Zhang Zuolin is still not sure whether the People's Army really does not know the twists and turns between itself and Japan, or whether it has already known but deliberately pretends to be confused, so Zhang Zuolin can't help but hesitate.

However, Zhang Zuolin also knows that if he refuses to go to Shenyang this time, he will undoubtedly offend the People's Army, and then the work of suppressing bandits in the past few months will basically be in vain, even if he does not settle this account with himself after the People's Army completely wins a complete victory in the future, he is likely to completely lose the trust of the People's Army, and it is undoubtedly just a dream to want to be the founding hero of the East China Government.

So after thinking about it for two days, Zhang Zuolin finally decided to obey the orders of the People's Army and take the team to Shenyang, because if he goes to Shenyang, he may not be fine, maybe the People's Army is letting himself protect the railway line, because he thinks too much, and the good and bad are all divided into five or five; on the contrary, if he does not go to Shenyang, the result will only be bad, and there is no good at all. Therefore, Zhang Zuolin finally decided to take Sun Liechen, Tang Yulin, Wang Liping, Zhang Sifei and others to Shenyang with 2,000 soldiers, leaving Zhang Zuoxiang and Zhang Jinghui to guard the octagonal platform, and secretly told the two that once they heard any bad news, they immediately fled with their families, and didn't care about their own life or death.

Zhang Zuolin and his entourage left the Octagonal Platform and arrived in Shenyang after a two-day journey. Although it has been less than three months since the last time I came to Shenyang, but this time the scene is very different, the traces left by the war are almost gone, and the prosperity of Shenyang is more prosperous, all kinds of vehicles on the avenue are coming and going, shops are also open for business, it is in the railway station, it is more lively and very, all kinds of goods get on and off the train very frequently, several platforms are crowded, and the trains are also one after another out, going north and south.

In addition, there are a large number of people getting on and off the bus, but Zhang Zuolin and others observed that these people are not tourists, but Russian and Japanese prisoners of war.

This scene also made Zhang Zuolin and others quite shocked, although they all knew the results of the People's Army's foreign war, but Bi Jing only heard about it, but did not intuitively understand, now seeing so many Russian and Japanese prisoners of war, it can be regarded as having some clear understanding, Zhang Zuolin has not dealt with the Russians and the Japanese in recent years, and the armies of the two countries have also seen a lot, and they clearly feel the Russian army, The Japanese army's disdain for the Chinese army is almost written on the face, and occasionally Zhang Zuolin will also strike at the lone Japanese and Russian soldiers, but even if they are captured and killed, they are still full of contempt and arrogance for the Chinese army, and now they see a large number of Japanese and Russian prisoners of war, one by one, they bow their heads like sheep, and they do not have the disdain they used to have.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but sigh. When he came to Shenyang City, the army was arranged to rest in the barracks, and someone led Zhang Zuolin to see Qin Zheng, it turned out that Qin Zheng had been specially instructed, and as soon as Zhang Zuolin's team arrived, he immediately brought Zhang Zuolin to see him. In fact, although Zhang Zuolin was dominant in the old time and space, he was just a battalion commander-level officer at this time, and compared with Qin Zheng, there was a big gap. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Zuolin is not qualified to see Qin Zheng at all. However, now is the time to employ people, so Qin Zheng plans to encourage Zhang Zuolin in person, and of course he will also engage in fights, so that Zhang Zuolin can do things for the People's Army with peace of mind. After all, appeasing Zhang Zuolin has a great driving effect, and it is a very good demonstration for Feng Linge and Ma Longtan, who have already defected to the People's Army, as well as Wu Junsheng and Du Lisan, who are talking about annexation.

After Zhang Zuolin learned about it, he was also surprised and happy in his heart, of course he knew that Qin Zheng was the second head of the East China Government, and now he was in charge of the political, military, economic and financial affairs in the northeast region, and he was extremely powerful, so he was also quite flattered in his heart; but he was worried about what it meant to transfer himself alone, whether it would be to arrest himself, but at this time, Zhang Zuolin was not allowed to refuse, and he could only say hello to Sun Liechen and others, and then leave with the herald.

After a short time, he came to Qin Zheng's office and got along with the People's Army for a few months, Zhang Zuolin knew a lot about the rules of the People's Army, and knew that the People's Army did not bow down, so he hurriedly saluted and said, "Zhang Zuolin, the captain of the Xinmin Mansion Detachment, report to Chief Qin." ”

Qin Zheng was also dressed in a military uniform, returned the salute, and said, "Take a break, Captain Zhang, please take a seat." ”

Zhang Zuolin put down his hand and sat down respectfully in front of Qin Zheng, but his waist was still straight.

Qin Zheng said: "Although Captain Zhang has not joined our People's Army for a long time, he has performed well, he has exterminated several bandits, and has made a lot of achievements!"

Zhang Zuolin hurriedly said: "There, there, in fact, these are the credit of Company Commander Liu, their firepower is strong, and the battle is brave, if there is no Company Commander Liu, I can't exterminate these bandits by relying on my team alone, and Zuolin doesn't dare to take credit." ”

Qin Zheng said with a smile: "You don't have to be modest, if you are not familiar with the terrain, environment, and habits of bandits, no matter how powerful the firepower is, it is impossible to exterminate the bandits so smoothly, so you have your credit, he has his credit, all of them are indispensable." ”

Zhang Zuolin said: "Since Zuolin has joined the People's Army, it is also Zuolin's business. ”

Qin Zheng said: "Yes, it is said that we have made mistakes in our work. Although you have joined the People's Army, even if you have not been given military uniforms or standard weapons, nor have you been given an official reorganization or number, you probably blame us for not treating you as a real People's Army. ”

Zhang Zuolin hurriedly said: "How dare Zuolin, General Qiu said before, now is wartime, so it is inevitable that something will be wrong, not to mention that the People's Army not only sent Company Commander Liu to help, but also pulled out a lot of guns and ammunition for us to help suppress bandits, how dare Zuolin still complain." ”

Qin Zheng said: "Of course it's good that you can think like this, but we can't let you have no official title for a long time, just now that your team is here, tomorrow I will arrange for someone to issue military uniforms to you, and change them all, at least look like this, and I will also give you a temporary number." It's too late for weapons, but it's still okay to replace them all with Mosin Nagant rifles, oh, that's what you call Water Beads. In this way, you will be considered a full-fledged People's Army. ”

Zhang Zuolin listened, and was happy and worried, whether he changed his military uniform or not, he didn't care if he had a number or not, but the 2,000 people he brought were all replaced with Mosin Nagant rifles, of course, it greatly improved his strength. In fact, Zhang Zuolin is very satisfied with the current state of the supernumerary army of the People's Army, even if he has defected to the People's Army and expanded his strength by suppressing bandits, but it is not a formal People's Army, so that Japan still has illusions about itself, and still wants to pull Longlong, so naturally he has to give himself some benefits, but now that he has become a full-fledged People's Army unit, it is difficult to say whether Japan will want to pull Longlong, but it will certainly not be as full of expectations for itself as before.

But at this time, Zhang Zuolin was not allowed to refuse, and he couldn't say that he only needed a gun, and he didn't want any military uniforms or numbers, so he had to pretend to be happy and said, "That's great." At this moment, Zhang Zuolin's heart moved, and he suddenly thought that now that he was formally incorporating his contingent into the system of the People's Army, and was he just giving himself an official title? Could this be a deliberate act by the People's Army, with the aim of cutting off his own back road, and that he could only be completely tied to the chariot of the People's Army in the future.
