Chapter 167: Reward
Meng Enyuan's army, which had the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, did not think of intervening in this battle at all, so when the rebels rushed all over the mountains, they were dumbfounded, watching the bandit army enter the realm of Jilin and there was no real meaningful obstruction at all---- poor preparation is one thing, these bandits are too fierce!
At this time, the bandit army originally wanted to flee north from Jilin without regard for their lives, and no matter how strong Han Linchun's troops could fight, they would not be able to catch up with the Babu Zabu army with the spirit of a strong man breaking his wrist. But it's a pity that before the Ba bandit army rushed north, a huge army appeared in the north!
The already frightened Pakistani bandit army thought that it was another guard brigade to set up an ambush array, so don't think too much, let's run south together. To the south is the rear of the Jilin army that has just been defeated, and there may be a way to live, if it is intercepted by the Guards Brigade who is not dying, I don't know who will sleep here again.
This also gives the Guard Brigade a very good excuse to enter the Jilin territory, you are not effective in suppressing bandits! Zhang Hanqing's bandit army consciously advanced along Baicheng to the southeast, and the blade pointed directly at Changchun, the provincial capital, and anyone with a discerning eye could know that this was the drunkard's intention not to drink, but to put pressure on Lao Meng.
When Zhang Hanqing was still guessing which side of the new army was sacred, someone on the opposite side was already calling for the battle: "Is it Xueliang's nephew?" I'm Wu Junsheng! ”
Zhang Hanqing's heart is not calm: Wu Junsheng, an important branch of the future Feng family, his father's long-term deputy, and his brother who shares life and death. In history, both of them died in Huanggutun, fulfilling their oath of covenant "but begging to die on the same day, month and year in the same year". Whether it is the needs of the moment or the respect for historical figures, especially those of his father's generation, he has to come forward to pay respects. However, the big names of the Republic of China have seen a lot, even if they are as famous as Wu Junsheng, they are only a little yearning, but they are not surprised.
Wu Junsheng's face was far more fierce than he imagined. In this regard, he was not surprised, like his father, Lao Wu was originally a bandit.
It was like a home at first sight. At the beginning, Zhang Zuolin was able to let him defect to Wu Junsheng at the moment of Yan Jun's assassination, which fully showed that the relationship between the two brothers could stand the test. During the war, there was no leisure to narrate, and the two exchanged views on the experience of suppressing bandits.
To tell the truth, Wu Junsheng is still skeptical of the legends of his "alliance nephew", after all, he is only a sixteen-year-old young man, it may be Xiao Zhang (Xiao Zhang in his mouth, but our old Zhang) support for his eldest son, after all, his only son Wu Taixun in his fifties is loved by him and has designed all kinds of roads for Xiao Wu, although Xiao Wu is only three years old this year. People are of the same mind.
However, when he heard a little about the bravery of the cavalry company and the bravery of Han Linchun, he couldn't help but look at the little nephew in front of him with admiration. can train officers and soldiers to be like this, at least he can't do it with his big tongue. Thinking that he was worried that he had no military merits to gain as the envoy of Taoliao Town, now, with Zhang Hanqing here, it was a brilliant idea to beat the already fearless Ba bandit army together. If he wants to do it, he will take the opportunity to reach into Jilin and find a good place to settle down here. The uncle and the two decided to join forces in the name of suppressing the bandits.
However, Meng Enyuan still acted quickly, and he hurriedly called Zhang Zuolin: "Brother Yuting Junjian: Since the pseudo 'Qinwang Restoration Army' entered Liao, it has caused a lot of harm to the place. After the sons and nephews fought bravely to kill the enemy, their arrogance was suddenly lost. Although Shucun is not talented, there is still spare strength, how can it rely on the children and nephews to shine and lean on the wall to be an old man? Meng has the duty of guarding the territory of Jilin, and he should not be borrowed. Now all the units of the Kyrgyzstan army are in place, and it is urgent to ask the friendly forces to suspend crossing the border, because the people are unfamiliar and the transportation is inconvenient; Second, the two armies do not belong to each other, and there is a risk of accidental injury. He also gave Zhang Zuolin a sweet face: "Xueliang's nephews have contributed to the country, and the younger brother should not let it go. ”
Who are Zhang Zuolin and Wu Junsheng, Meng Enyuan still doesn't know? They have paid for it, and if they are stationed in Jilin in the name of suppressing bandits, it will be really difficult for them to do it. I can only give him some benefits to make him stop. What is Lao Zhang lacking now? People and guns will not be given by themselves, the fame, the central government has already given it to him, President Li Yuanhong has just issued a decree, the governors of all places are called overseers, the patrol envoys are called governors, and Zhang Zuolin is already the overseer and governor of Fengtian. Except for Feng Delin, the 28th Division, who heard that the relationship with him was very stiff, there was nothing to worry about, if he had an idea, he could only have it on his eldest son.
Lao Zhang also took great pains for this eldest son, and also built an army for him, called the Guards Brigade. Not to mention, his eldest son still has two brushes, and he has made a new army impressive. From the words of this kid on the front line of the suppression of bandits, it can be judged that the Guards Brigade is really good at fighting, Babu Zabu has been active for more than ten years, and he has beaten all the hard bones to flee. If he gets him some medals and promotions at this time, Lao Zhang must be happy, and he will be embarrassed to enter my Jilin again, right?
Sure enough, when it comes to this, Zhang Zuolin is embarrassed to use troops in Jilin again, and he has to express his gratitude, and he is really embarrassed to give his son an official position, Lao Meng will really send charcoal in the snow. And hurriedly said that he had ordered the bandit army to temporarily stay on the front line of Baicheng and Baiyin Taicheng (which is still a big town, that is, modern Tongliao City) to prevent the bandit army from repeating and causing trouble to the people again. "Once the bandits are cleared, they should return, and there will be no stay, so please don't read it yet."
Don't be a ghost! If you don't implement it, can you not read it! Meng Enyuan had to help boast to Zhang Hanqing at this time: "The army is well governed, vigorous and resolute, and is known as ability." Three days ago, 100 people rode against thousands of bandits, and the bandits were moved by the inexhaustible three battles. Two days ago, most of them were encircled and annihilated, and they became famous in a war. Bandits can lose their courage, and they are really Zhang Hanqing's power. If the central government can praise the martyrs in time and advance backwards, the armies will be shocked and the annihilation of the stubborn enemy will be just around the corner! ”
At this time, President Li Yuanhong and Premier Duan Qirui had a knot in their hearts, and they were fighting openly and secretly for the support of various places, and Meng Enyuan's telegram not only made Zhang Hanqing famous, but also made the two departments of the government and the academy extend an olive branch to Zhang Zuolin at the same time. The two worked together, and coincidentally let Zhang Zuolin Ji go out of the field to get a letter of appointment and a medal of merit: "Appoint Zhang Hanqing as the colonel of the Fengtian Supervision Military Administration, and promote Fengtian to suppress bandits. ”
The Guards Brigade still failed to be recognized by the Central Committee, but Zhang Hanqing was justifiably appointed by the Central Committee, which was a great joy. However, Zhang Hanqing was still a little embarrassed in the face of Guo Songling and Han Linchun: he didn't make any efforts, and he didn't get any battles, but he was actually awarded a colonel and a senator. And the old subordinates who worked hard didn't even eat a scum.
