Ji Jinchun automatically ignored Zhang Hanqing's words of relief for the heavy siege of 28, and focused on the second half of his sentence: "Zhang Dashuai really did this?" ”

Yes, of course! That's still his idea. According to Zhang Zuolin's temper, when he saw Feng Delin in an embarrassing situation, he couldn't wait to step on it a few more times, he had been bullied too hard this year! Even the generals in the Fengtian Overseer Army Mansion also talked about it, and there was no shortage of those who advocated beating the water dogs. Zhang Zuolin hated him for forcing people too much, and he was depressed for a while, but he was greatly relieved and had the intention to tease.

But Zhang Hanqing said to him: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, Feng Delin, whether he lives or dies, he has been ruined after this battle, and it is impossible for him to be his father's opponent, but if Feng Delin can be born because of his father, he will completely win the hearts of the 28th Division!" In any case, what should be protected still has to be protected, which not only shows that we are affectionate and righteous, but also makes Feng ashamed to die. ”

Zhang Zuolin naturally has the true character of a hero, and he did not hesitate to ask Feng Delin to telegraph: "It is dangerous to live in Beijing forever, and you should return by land along the Great Wall alone, and you should go out to meet you at the appropriate place, or cloud."

Riding alone, it was the commander of the light pole, and Lao Feng didn't want to lose that share anyway. Of course, he still had a fluke, so he listened to the words of the people around him, led the guards to change into civilian clothes, took the train eastward, and prepared to stay in the Tianjin concession, and then depending on the situation. I thought that I didn't measure myself to compete with Zhang Zuolin at the beginning, but now I am so down, why bother to show others an embarrassed look?

However, his family is still in Beizhen, and his eldest son is still in the army. If the army rises again, he has no doubt about Zhang Zuolin's thunderbolt methods, Feng Yong and Ji Jinchun are not his opponents. Anyway, the 28th Division will enter Zhang Zuolin's middle school sooner or later, so why not be a favor? So he called back and said: "After this incident, Feng is disheartened, and he should retire to Tianjin as a public servant, and no longer care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes." The rest of his subordinates and family members believe that his younger brother will be able to be properly settled, so he will not say anything more. ”

This telegram will now be handed to Ji Jinchun from Zhang Hanqing's hand.

Ji Jinchun stared at the telegram for a long time, silent. He has followed Feng Delin for many years, and watching him go from being strong to being a guilty person, this gap is still quite big. Thinking of the uncertain death of 28 teachers and students, the future path is also very uncertain.

"Now that Master Feng has made a decision, I will not have any more twists and turns. After I go back, I will arrange for the whole division to lay down its arms, and only ask the young marshal to speak in front of the marshal, so that the officers and men of the 28th Division can be properly accommodated. ”

Zhang Hanqing's heart was put back in his stomach. Being able to completely ambush the 28th Division is equivalent to doubling its strength---- the 28th Division is a standard Beiyang strong army, the soldiers are well-equipped, and they have been in battle formations, so it can be said that they are the Xiong Division outside the Guanwai, and the 27th Division is not too reckless. The most important thing is that it has a standard artillery regiment, which Zhang Zuolin dreamed of.

"Uncle Ji Shi, don't say that, my father told me that he has always admired Uncle Shi's talent. If it weren't for Uncle Shi's presence, it would be difficult for Feng Shibo to have today's achievements. The grievances between my father and Feng Shibo will not affect the 28th Division. If there are people in the army who don't want to follow his father, Xueliang can make a statement here and let him come and go freely! Even Brother Feng Yong, I will also let my father make proper arrangements. However, Uncle Ji Shi is the Dinghai Divine Needle of the 28th Division, and the position of this division commander belongs to you. My father said that everyone is in the same vein outside the border, and we should eliminate prejudice and suspicion, and join hands to create brilliance! ”

When he was blowing the sea, he was already full of tickets, and he was even allowed to leave the position of division commander.

Everything must be focused on the overall situation, from Ji Jinchun not meeting with Sun Liechen who is closer to him and finding himself, it seems that he still has an ideological burden on Zhang Zuolin, Uncle Sun is a recognized father and confidant. At this moment, to be able to stabilize Ji Jinchun is to stabilize the 28th Division.

So Ji Jinchun went back to Feng Yong to report his life, of course he would not say that he was promised to replace his father, that would be considered by Feng as a traitor seeking glory. He only relayed Zhang Hanqing's meaning, and said that everything was only obeyed by Feng Yong's orders.

What else can Feng Yong say? He is very little immersed in the army, so he does not have much right to speak, the key is this situation, even the gods are helpless. Since the surrender of the 28th Division is a foregone conclusion, he will not make a useless fight, but he doesn't want to face the enemy who has dug up his "job", so he said to Ji Jinchun: "Since Zhang Hanqing has the saying of 'let him come and go freely', the little nephew also has a reluctant request, and wants to go to Beijing to help his father reduce some of his guilt." The 28th division is my father's life's work, and I am relieved to hand it over to Uncle Ji. ”

Feng Yong left Beizhen alone and took the train to Beijing. Zhang Hanqing really did not break his promise, and sent someone to escort him out of Shanhaiguan.

Ji Jinchun convened a meeting of senior officers to discuss the situation, and finally unanimously decided to obey Zhang Zuolin's dispatch. As a result, the whole division, under the leadership of the old brigade commander Ji Jinchun, defected without firing a single bullet. In this way, Feng Delin's ally Meng En, the overseer of Jilin, saw that the situation was not right, so he wisely drew a line with him, and no longer dared to have any form of moral support for the restoration.

Feng Delin, a strongman outside the Guan, finally bowed his head, Zhang Zuolin was full of confidence, and he wanted to take the opportunity to take power and bring the 28th Division under his command. According to the usual mature methods, he planned to disperse and reorganize the whole division, which was a tried and tested method of Lao and Xiao Zhang. If this is really the case, it is estimated that it will not be long before the 28th division must be surnamed Zhang.

However, this made the people of the 28th Division, which was already uncertain, panic and unstable morale. The life and death of the old chief is uncertain, the eldest son is traveling, how does Zhang Zuolin treat the 28th Division? If he turns his face and doesn't think that the best way out for the brothers is to go up the mountain and get beards!

Zhang Hanqing was keenly aware of this undesirable sign after visiting several places. Brigade Commander Ji Jinchun, who accompanied him, was also worried: the division commander Feng Delin and another brigade commander, Zhang Haipeng, had been arrested, and he was now the highest-ranking officer of the 28th Division, and if there was a mutiny, he would die a hundred times.

Of course, in the face of Zhang Zuolin, who received the troops as a victor, he did not dare to have any opinions, so he could only work hard to cooperate with Zhang Zuolin's ideas and persuade all units to obey orders and strive to make the integration smooth. His work makes Zhang Zuolin also quite appreciated.

However, in the face of the young marshal who was quite familiar, Ji Jinchun still expressed his opinion rarely: "Young marshal, Feng Shuai and Zhang Dashuai had an opinion at the beginning, it was a dispute between the two people, and the vast majority of the officers and soldiers of the 28th Division were still only following orders. Now that Feng Shuai is not here, they are afraid of being disrupted, and all kinds of rumors are boiling, and I am worried that the army's morale is unstable. The 27th and 28th Divisions are the strongest armies outside the Guan, and they are responsible for guarding against the Japanese. ”

For the last sentence, Zhang Hanqing also had to think twice. To have this heart and to see so far is a patriotic and capable general, credible.

Under these circumstances, Zhang Hanqing decisively gave up the drastic reorganization, and strongly dissuaded Zhang Zuolin from giving priority to stability, and recommended Ji Jinchun, the former brigade commander of the 28th Division, to be promoted to the post of division commander to replace Feng Delin, and praised him: "He has a calm temperament, is familiar with military affairs, has a strong view of the overall situation, and is deeply respected." For Feng Delin's eldest son Feng Yong, Zhang Hanqing suggested that he be given a vacant post as a senator of the Overseer's Office and director of the Air Force Preparation Department.

Zhang Zuoxiang also advised Zhang Zuolin: "Marshal, the only way to plan today is to stabilize the morale of the army." Although Feng Delin committed a crime, he was still very influential in the 28th Division and in Mukden, and shoehorning into his personal past may not be beneficial to reorganization and stability. Although he was very tempted by the position of this division commander, reason told him, "Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek for a while; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain", compared with the long-term development of the Feng Department, personal gains and losses are small.

Zhang Zuolin originally wanted Zhang Zuoxiang, who had followed him for many years, to be the new commander of the 28th Division, first, to rest assured, and second, Zhang Zuoxiang's qualifications were no worse than Sun Liechen's, and now not only Sun Liechen is the division commander, but even the rising star Han Linchun is in charge, Zhang Zuoxiang has only been a brigade commander in the army, although he was promoted to chief of staff of the Overseer's Mansion not long ago, think about it and feel a little sorry for him.

Seeing that Zhang Zuoxiang could think about the overall situation like this, Zhang Zuolin was also very moved: "I am very grateful that the auxiliary minister can think like this, but this time I wronged you again." ”

Zhang Zuoxiang smiled open-mindedly: "What grievances are not grievances, no one can do the same, as long as everyone can get Fengjun up." ”

The son and cronies themselves all said so, and this sand-seeping adaptation basically only stayed on paper. Because another brigade commander, Zhang Haipeng, was detained at the same time, after Ji Jinchun took the position, the positions of two brigade commanders were vacant, and Zhang Zuolin designated two regiment commanders to take over. Following the example of other troops in Fengtian, Zhang Zuolin also raised the rank of chief of staff to the same level as the brigade commander, forming a situation in which the troika restrains each other. Zhang Zuolin promoted all three to major generals through channels and obtained their allegiance.

Other than that, there was almost no movement from the top to bottom of the 28th Division. Zhang Zuolin also announced that Feng Delin's incident was a personal act, and the result was not public, so the matter did not affect others. In addition, he also paid the salaries of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers a month in advance to win the hearts of the people.

Regarding Zhang Hanqing's proposal to promote Feng Yong, everyone and others are staring at the arrangement of the eldest son. The most recent position given to him in the same year was the post of Senate and Chief of the Air Force Preparation Division of the Overseer Administration, with the rank of colonel.

Lao Zhang has no opinion on this suggestion: the Senate of the Overseer's Mansion is an idle post, as for the director of the Air Force Preparation Division, the ghost knows what it is? Xiao Liuzi has a lot of tricks, let him go. Feng Yong was originally just a staff officer in the army, but now he has been promoted and increased under the original enemy, I don't know what kind of mentality he will have when he learns at this moment.

However, the 28th Division saw that the old man in the army was still in charge of Ji Jinchun, and the young master had also been properly settled, so all kinds of rumors gradually died down. Ji Jinchun also lived up to Zhang Hanqing's wisdom and promotion, and actively cooperated with the measures of the old and young Zhang. In addition, Feng Yong also thanked Zhang Hanqing for his assistance and promises, and then worked hard to make outstanding contributions to the development of the Northeast Air Force. Of course, Zhang Hanqing knows people well and gives him considerable help to give full play to his talents.
