Zhang Zuolin was very appreciative of Zhang Hanqing's newlywed wedding to go to the front line five days ago. Good boy, just with this drive, the future must be limitless. And in Zhang Zuolin's mind, Zhang Hanqing's meritorious service again is a certainty, and of course he agrees with him to go.

So Zhang Hanqing, who had been fighting for five days in a row, finally went to open up another battlefield, which made Yu Fengzhi both happy and sad. Having no of his own bedside fetters is good for his young body; But when I thought that I didn't know how long it would take to see him, I felt a little stunned.

Zhang Zuolin, who still cares about his daughter-in-law, is considerate, and he sent his newly married fifth lady Shou Yi to comfort Yu Fengzhi: "It is appropriate for a man to make meritorious contributions, and we, as women, naturally cannot hold back." The big and young marshals are not at home, and you can also participate in the big and small affairs in the marshal's mansion. Men are working hard outside, so they can't still worry about things at home, right? Yu Fengzhi is also a sensible person, bowed his head and said: "Fifth Mother is right, I'm just worried that he will suffer outside." ”

Another night lingered, and this time Yu Fengzhi no longer kept it. When the tired Zhang Hanqing was about to fall asleep with half-squinted eyes, Yu Fengzhi sat beside him and said quietly: "You have to take good care of yourself when you are outside, don't work too hard, if there is anything wrong to save your life, you are my dependence." After chattering for a while, he said with a smile: "There is one more thing, when you go out, don't touch those wild women, and don't think about ghosts and foxes to bring home, I won't agree." ”

Poor Zhang Hanqing fell asleep with such a frightened mood.

The work of suppressing bandits in Jilin here is not going well.

It is not that the officers and soldiers of Jilin are not capable of fighting ---- but Meng Enyuan, the overseer who has combat strength comparable to the 27th Division, is also the commander of the 23rd Division, and has greater authority over Jilin than Zhang Zuolin---- Zhang Zuolin has Feng Delin, the 28th Division in the same city, and Gao Shiwei, the brigade commander of the mixed brigade of another unit in Jilin, is Meng Enyuan's nephew, and there is no one else to hinder him in Jilin.

It stands to reason that the work of suppressing bandits should be easier.

In fact, the opposite is true, because the Japanese intervened.

Meng Enyuan did not have many troops in Gisiben, and when the bandit army attacked, he and his nephew Gao Shifu made the mistake of idealism: it was easy to see a new army like the Guards Brigade fighting bandits, and his regular army was not easy to capture? Therefore, when the Ba bandits broke through the outer defense line of the Ji army and rushed through the Changling Mountains to the Dongliao River, they found that there was no army left to stop them.

At this time, no matter how quickly he transferred troops from all over the country, the Japanese troops on the South Manchurian Railway rudely prevented him from transferring troops through the railway---- and like Zhang Zuolin, he also tasted the brutality of the Japanese.

What is even infuriating is that not only is the railway not available, but even the 30 kilometers on both sides of the railway line cannot be entered, on the grounds that the Chinese army will thus infringe on the sovereignty of the Southern Railway annex.

By August 13, Babu Zabu led the remnants to successfully retreat to Guojiadian near Siping, where he posted notices of "Restore Du Ji" everywhere, and sharpened his knife Huo Huo, to attack Zhengjiatun---- there was no way to defeat the Guards Brigade, and it was not bad to take Zhang Zuolin's in-laws to relieve their hatred.

Of course, the bandit army on the front line refused, jokes, and the lord was worried about the death of his ministers. If Zheng Jiatun has any harm, how can a bunch of people have the face to see Zhang Hanqing again? Ignoring the previous agreement with Meng Enyuan, Han Linchun led a group to enter Zhengjiatun first to defend. Wu Junsheng also wanted to beat the water dogs, and also sent one to enter later. He was originally the guard of Taonan Town, and this is also his territory, and there is no one.

When marching to war, observing the situation is the first priority. When Han Linchun arranged the arming, Zhang Hanqing carefully observed in Zhengjiatun.

Speaking from the heart, the Japanese are very discerning, and they have long proposed to build a railway here. There are two rivers confluence, there is a direct Liaohe wharf to Yingkou, there are more than 500 shops, and there are tens of thousands of people. The geographical location here is also very important, it is located in the middle of the four flats in the southeast Mongolian town of Tongliao and Feng and Jijian, it is a place where soldiers must fight since ancient times, and it is famous all over the country for "the Liaohe River waterway to rush" and "the important town in the northeast".

The Japanese have set up a police station in Zhengjiatun, which has been built for four years.

It is said that as a symbol of the administrative unit of local governance, private police stations are already a serious violation of China's sovereignty, but in that era, anything was possible. Isn't the Chinese government just fond of "protests", "serious protests", "solemn representations", and so on, and the South China Sea disputes until the crossing were still the usual practice. There is no way, there is no diplomacy for a weak country.

With the police station, there is a legitimate right to manage local security. Although there are only a few people, the local government in China does not dare to take care of it. Why, if they are annoyed, the Japanese army can intervene in a clear and straightforward manner, and it is customary for the Chinese government to end up with the crime of "causing trouble and disorderly administration" by the Chinese government.

Heartwarming, but the heart is not slack.

Now that the army of tens of thousands of troops of the Guards Brigade is nearby, the "Wang Division" is not far from recovering the lost territory. In order to fight for the people of Zhengjiatun and for Yu Fengzhi's family, as the commander of the first army, he must make a gesture. Suppressing bandits is also a kind of sovereign oath activity.

Riding a tall horse, our young marshal was in high spirits, and under the escort of a group of cavalry, he walked through the downtown with great interest. I came here once not long ago when I proposed marriage, but I just took a look at it, and now I have a rare opportunity, by the way.

There was a warm uproar from the crowd, after all, it was rare to see such a young and high-ranking official. Someone who knew about it excitedly bit his ear with the person next to him: "Do you know?" This brigade elder is the Yu family's Chenglong fast son-in-law, the young marshal of Fengtian City! Someone said, "Sure enough, she is a talented woman." The eldest lady of the Yu family is a beauty within a radius of 100 miles, and this husband is not too reckless! ”

Just as it was beautiful, suddenly there was a cry of "wow" from the back of the crowd, and another domineering voice said: "Eight Geya Road!" Then I heard a girl crying and saying, "He bullies!" He hit me! Then the voice said, "Yours, dead and dead!" Crying! Desk cover! ”

The sound was so familiar, and so harsh, that it was alive in my ears. If it weren't for this sound, Zhang Hanqing would still be intoxicated with the illusion of being strong and strong. This sound brought him back to reality: this is the Republic of China, and the Japanese are still staying here.

The crowd on one side suddenly moved out of the way, and a little girl with unkempt head stumbled over, still holding a basket in her hand, I don't know what it was, and then a short big tooth pushed through the crowd and chased it out. After all, the girl couldn't outrun the adult, and she was still holding something, and she was caught by him, and she had to fight her.

Such a spicy thing happened in front of Zhang Hanqing, of course, you have to take care of it. He grabbed the reins, stopped, and shouted at the man, "Let go of the girl!" The man glanced at it, and a sentence came out from between his teeth: "Yours, what are you doing?" ”

With his identity and status, except for Feng Delin, who doesn't buy his father's account and therefore doesn't have a good impression of himself, who else doesn't respect a "young marshal"? This man, and most importantly the Japanese, turned out to be disrespectful to him! What a thing!

Zhang Hanqing's adjutant Zhu Guangmu jumped off his horse at this time and said majestically: "This is the son of Zhang Dashuai of Fengtian City and the brigade commander of the Guards Brigade. "Others dare not say that Zhang Zuolin's influence is still very great, and it is up to Zhang Dashuai to not give Zhang Hanqing face. If the other party is interested in accusing him, it's okay, and it's better to make fewer things out in an eventful time.

Someone next to him already whispered the reason: "This is Yoshimoto, a clerk at the Japanese pharmacy Guangjitang, who has always bullied men and women here." I have seen that little girl, her parents fish on the Liao River for a living, and she sells fish. For some reason, it actually provoked Yoshimoto, and he was just slapped a few times. ”

But Yoshimoto was so arrogant that he looked up to the sky and laughed and said a few words in Japanese. Although he couldn't understand what he was saying, the fool could see his disdain when he looked at his expression. It happened that Zhang Hanqing was surrounded by someone who knew Japanese, and he immediately translated it, to the effect that this was in a Japanese store, and the Chinese soldiers had no right to ask!

Zhang Hanqing was furious. It is unbearable for a big man to bully a little girl, and even more intolerable is that the Japanese bully the Chinese and despise China's sovereignty in this way! He pointed at his horsewhip and shouted: "What kind of ability is it to be a hero with a child, there is a kind of rushing at me!" Besides, let me tell you, this is on China's turf, and I will never allow you to beat people and make insulting remarks! ”

Yoshimoto is arrogant, he is not afraid of who the Chinese on the other side are, in his heart, in Mukden, in the northeast, only the officials and garrisons of the East Hall are uncles, and anyone who faces the Japanese has to retreat, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog! He didn't dare to make a move at Zhang Hanqing---- but there were few people around him---- but he pulled the little girl and slapped him hard!

This slap seemed to be on Zhang Hanqing's face, and all the guards were "honored". The crowd shouted angrily, everyone's eyes looked at Zhang Hanqing, and a pair of expectant eyes hoped that Zhang Hanqing would do something, after all, he was a big official!

This kind of look made Zhang Hanqing feel sad and painful, and made him feel shame and sympathy. Chinese have always pursued the principle that more is better than less, and they also hope that others can come forward to call the shots, while they themselves shrink their heads and watch. How many times have it been reported that the righteous and brave were rescued by the other side with more than they wanted, and the Japanese army in the Nanjing Massacre used only a few people to hold thousands of Chinese and let them "bravely" go to the execution ground... This is the sorrow of the nation and the tragedy of China.

But they can't be blamed: China has been weak for too long, so that foreigners have developed a habit of lawlessness in China. The government's long-term inaction made the people wisely choose to endure humiliation and steal their lives in the face of foreign conflicts, and this cycle made the Chinese develop the habit of being vicious as ghosts at home and subservient to the outside, and this habit was one of the reasons why traitors and puppet armies emerged one after another in the later history of the War of Resistance, and there were more leading parties than devils. Even in modern times, there have been cases of military helicopters being used to rescue Japanese tourists lost in the mountains, which can be understood as an extreme situation of alternative inferiority---- an inferiority complex that longs to be recognized...
