The conversation between the two attracted many onlookers, and Zhang Hanqing was also full of energy. He took this group of people as his performance stage and continued to talk eloquently: "However, it does not mean that the reunification of China is far away, at least, in Mukden, our 27th Division is qualified and capable to complete the great task of unifying the northeast." We are united, and the upper echelons also have the foresight to enhance the quality of military officers and officers, as evidenced by the reopening of the martial arts hall. As long as the people are fully mobilized and the strength is gradually strengthened, depending on the situation, they can advance and win the pass, and retreat enough to protect themselves. At present, the main task is to reserve more qualified personnel, develop industry and economy, and improve the people's livelihood under the general situation of peace and security, so as to provide a sufficient guarantee for the great development of Fengjun in the future. ”

The middle-aged instructor asked: "Even if the Feng army grows stronger in the future, it is only the other pole that has broken away from the Beiyang system, how can it achieve the unification of China?" ”

Zhang Hanqing said without thinking: "With the Northeast as the base, an unprecedented revolution will be carried out. This revolution is completely different from what these factions are doing. We can complete the great ideological and institutional revolution by building a revolutionary party, fully mobilizing the peasants and intellectuals, strengthening the strength of the workers, and uniting all those who can be united. In the northeast, there is a vast and fertile land, a large number of people, and the best industrial base and resources in China, which is the best place for large-scale economic construction. In addition, we must build a new-style army that is truly supported by the people. As long as we form a group and strive to maintain foreign relations with all parties that are neither humble nor arrogant, and as long as there is stability for 10 years, I believe that the Northeast will be the greatest force. ”

The middle-aged instructor continued to ask, "What do you mean by the new army?" As far as I know, if you start with the Beiyang military training, in China, the new army has already appeared at least three times? ”

Zhang Hanqing is like a treasure: "In the past, all kinds of armies only trained their courage and less their soul. Soldiers who only know how to obey their superiors and do not understand their missions, often become private soldiers and become thugs of politicians. My ideal army is to defend the country as the highest faith, to be proud of the country's dedication, and to be ashamed of losing its teachers and losing its land; Be proud to serve the people and be ashamed to harass the people; Be proud of civilized culture, and be ashamed of ignorance..."

said it well, and almost brought out the "Eight Honors and Eight Shames". So he swallowed his saliva, closed the topic, and concluded: "The army I want to build is a new army with officers and soldiers, faith and discipline. ”

The middle-aged instructor nodded, and then asked, "However, young marshal, in the future, I mean that if there is a military conflict between Fengjun and Mr. Sun, what does the young marshal think we have a chance of winning?" ”

Zhang Hanqing has been keenly aware that this person has a certain relationship with Sun Yat-sen, and he also asked this cleverly, but he actually set a trap. However, he said sincerely: "Mr. Sun Yat-sen has been exploring the truth of saving the country and saving the people, and I deeply admire his realm of 'the world is for the public', but I am not optimistic about his future." The current Kuomintang is like a rootless peace, living in Guangdong. Although the banner is loud, all the revolutions can only act as drummers for waving the flag, but do not have the power to make subversive changes. Even Mr. Sun himself is just being used or used as a tiger skin to pull the banner. His founding policy was not approved even by the local merchants of Guangdong. ”

This is a fact, and it is also a strange thing that has not been covered or explained in various textbooks, and it is estimated that it is the Spring and Autumn penmanship implemented by "making a secret for His Holiness" because of the fame of the "Father of the Nation": The vast majority of the funds needed for Sun Yat-sen's revolution were raised by overseas Chinese, while at home, even in Guangdong, the stronghold of the National Revolution, the Kuomintang was not favored by the powerful Guangzhou merchant group. As for the collusion with the Jiangsu-Zhejiang consortium, the material basis of the Kuomintang, it was only in the Chiang Kai-shek era that a new situation was opened up.

The immediate requirement of the business community to participate in the Xinhai Revolution was to avoid turmoil and enable them to operate with peace of mind, and the long-term demand was to hope that China would become independent, prosperous, and strong, free from foreign control and oppression, and that the government should formulate and implement policies to protect and support the development of industry and commerce. In the beginning, most of them were full of expectations for the revolution, and even strongly supported it. But in the end they gradually became disappointed. Later, on November 19, 1917, Shanghai's "Republic of China Daily" published a telegram jointly sent by Shanghai businessmen to Sun Yat-sen, the theme of which was the hope for a truce between the north and the south. For Sun Yat-sen, it was just one of many messages he received. At that time, most of the capitalists in China lacked foresight, and the revolutionaries lacked in-depth cooperation and close ties with them, so they would alienate and complain about the revolutionary party when their immediate interests were damaged, and their attitude towards the revolutionary party finally shifted from support to opposition.

Historically, Sun Yat-sen's power has been in a tepid state, which is closely related to his delay in receiving financial assistance. Another very important factor, but not mentioned, is that the Kuomintang regime has always been "illegal" in general terms compared to the government of the Republic of China, which is recognized by various countries.

When the Kuomintang is on the stage, it needs to raise the banner of the Father of the Nation; The Communist Party cannot erase his efforts, and it is still more for the needs of the united front, so in many things, it invariably carries out "defending His Holiness." Therefore, the education we are receiving now is very exaggerated to his role, in fact, in the minds of the people of the time, he is only one of many revolutionaries, or rather, he is also a warlord.

But the person in front of him is inextricably linked to Sun Yat-sen, or at least he is a loyal fan of Sun Yat-sen, so he should be cautious in answering this kind of question. However, Zhang Hanqing has already drafted this: "Logically, the great revolution we are about to carry out is similar to Mr. Sun's 'Three Dishes of Cooking Righteousness' revolution, but we can get the real support of the workers and peasants, because we will start from the bottom up, instead of the 'Three Dishes of Cooking Righteousness' empty and empty only on paper; we have more advantages than Mr. Sun in that we have our own territory and can fully guarantee our ideas."

As for whether there will be a military conflict in the future, this assumption is still very far away, and it is really a bit unfounded to talk about it now. In my mind, Sun Yat-sen is the natural head of state of the Republic of China. If that day really comes, I will do my best to make Fengjun and Mr. Sun take the lead. ”

The middle-aged instructor's brows relaxed, he stretched out his big hand, and said to Zhang Hanqing: "Well said, young marshal." I, Guo Songling, am willing to help the young marshal achieve his ideals, even if there is an abyss in front of him. ”

"Guo Songling?" Zhang Hanqing was surprised. "Guo Devil?" He subconsciously asked, shouldn't he, why is he here?

"Huh?" Guo Songling was very puzzled, who gave Lao Tzu this nickname behind his back? Even the major general knows!

Speaking of which, this nickname is indeed worthy of his name. Guo Songling in the official history is tall and straight, and his usual life is very simple. At that time, the generals of the Fengjun army wore very good military uniforms, and the cloth uniforms were worn by the White Russian soldiers except for the soldiers (the old Russian army expelled by the October Revolution has always been called the Russian devil, editor's note). Because he was wearing a cloth military uniform, and he looked as tall as a White Russian soldier, he didn't know who called this nickname, and then it became popular, and he didn't think it was wrong.

Zhang Hanqing can remember this nickname only because he has watched the TV series, uh, misled... He can't be called "Guo Devil" now.

Guo Songling is said to be a descendant of Guo Ziyi, the king of Tang Fenyang County, who was admitted to the Beijing General School Research Institute in the first year of the Republic of China and the Army University in the second year of the Republic of China. If nothing goes wrong, he will work as an instructor in the lecture hall in Beijing after graduation, and then defect when Sun Yat-sen formed the Dharma Protector Army in the following year, only when the Dharma protection movement failed, he had to return to Fengtian and serve as a tactical instructor in the lecture hall in the three eastern provinces.

It just so happened that Zhang Xueliang was studying here, and he personally felt that Instructor Guo was far away from his voice, self-sustaining and honest, strict in governing the army, and rewarding and punishing his subordinates. Zhang Xueliang greatly admired his profound learning and noble character. Guo Songling is a unique person among the generals of the Fengjun Army. He received a systematic education from the Army University in Beijing, joined the League, met Sun Yat-sen twice in Guangzhou and Tianjin, and was deeply influenced by his revolutionary ideas. Although 19 years older than Zhang Xueliang, the two have become close friends. Later, because he was dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin's behavior of expanding armaments and seizing territory, with the support of his wife, he was determined to accumulate power, overthrow the warlords, rectify the Feng army, and prepare to return power to Zhang Xueliang, who had the idea of cooking.

Originally, he shouldn't have seen Zhang Hanqing so soon in his life, but because of the latter's arrival, his life took a turn in advance.

Because it was Zhang Zuolin who instigated Zhang Hanqing to prepare for the 27th Division's martial arts lecture hall in advance, relying on Lao Zhang's relationship in the DPRK and China, strong local concepts and huge investment, some Fengsheng students in the Army University were invited to return to their hometowns to serve as instructors, and Guo Songling was one of them.

It is undeniable that Lao Zhang's reputation is not false, he either doesn't do anything about the martial arts, and he makes a big move: the provost is 300 yuan per month, 200 yuan for instructors of various subjects, and 150 yuan for teachers.

What is the level of this treatment? Referring to the fact that a soldier in the Fengjun army had a monthly salary of 2 yuan at that time, and a piece of Fengdayang could buy 10 catties of pork, it can be seen that the instructors are the real gold-collar income! There must be brave men under the heavy reward, so it is understandable that the 27th Division's martial arts hall is in full swing immediately, and it is also a duty to dig up a lot of teachers and graduates from the Army University and Baoding Army School---- many people join the army just for money!

Anyway, after Zhang Hanqing, who crossed over, he changed his fate a little, and also fine-tuned the life trajectory of the people around him, which is the principle of the butterfly effect. Anyway, Guo Songling met him in advance, so there were fewer ideological fluctuations and more feelings in distress.

Knowing that he was the famous tactical instructor Guo Songling, Zhang Hanqing was very pleased to get his loyalty. The preparations for the Guards Brigade are imminent, and at this juncture, it is really providential to get Guo Songling's help, he thought.
