Chapter 267: Inclusion
In the process of the 28th Division's incorporation, because the officers and men were in their respective duties, there was basically no change from top to bottom, so that the 28th Division was at ease and smoothly transitioned.
But there are always people who feel sad, this is the former brigade commander Tang Yulin who defected to the 28th Division. As a major general and brigade commander, he was lured by Zhang Haipeng and others to force the palace to fail, and had to flee to Guangning. Don't look at his previous great status in the Feng army, but once he was deprived of his military position, he immediately felt that the dehaired phoenix was not as good as a chicken. Feng Delin saw that his use value was completed, so he no longer paid attention to him, and only regarded him as a guest. After a few months like this, Feng Delin lost power, and he couldn't even be a guest.
There were many people in the 27th Division who wanted to beat the water dogs, especially Yu Zhen, the new brigade commander who replaced his position because he left. However, Zhang Zuolin missed the old after all, Tang Yulin snorted and cried to express remorse, and Lao Zhang also relented, thinking that he was just lost for a while, and when he forced the palace, he was only aimed at Wang Yongjiang, who had a bad relationship with him, not to him. After all, Tang Yulin is his worshipper brother, and he is staring at this matter up and down. Of course, he has a reason to refuse to reinstate, but this is different from his usual way of acting, and killing people is not enough; If it is used, a radish and a pit, there is no good place to place it.
Zhang Zuolin instructed Ji Jinchun to stabilize the situation, and the 28th Division was still temporarily stationed in Guangning---- Lao Zhang's direction was to Guannei, leaving this army to deal with Rehe's Yi army. With the glory of victory, he himself returned to Mukden with Zhang Hanqing's Guards Division.
On the way, Zhang Hanqing reported the Tianjin munitions, which shocked Lao Zhang so much that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. He subconsciously looked at the sturdy baggage, and obediently boomed, thirty cannons!
However, after all, Lao Zhang has dealt with the Japanese for many years, and he knows that if this matter is not done well, the Japanese will turn against him. I'm not very afraid, but I don't look at the strength of so many divisions, I really fought with the Japanese, and I was not appetizing enough. He whispered to Zhang Hanqing nervously: "The Japanese guns will be numbered, and there is such a pile of arms in the air, how can you hide it from the Japanese?" ”
Zhang Hanqing has already had a belly case: "Father, although the Shenyang Arsenal can't repair mountain artillery now, it can be done to remove these traces by returning to the furnace, and then successively assigned to the First Division and the Guards Division." These two units are newly formed, and they are far away from the Japanese sphere of influence, and they have nothing to do with the Japanese, so they will not have a chance to see through it for a while. ”
At this point, it is useless to say more, and Zhang Zuolin is still very hopeful about having new artillery. The 27th and 28th Divisions are all key armed units of the Beiyang Department, and they are only artillery regiments equipped with 54 cannons. The Guards Division, from the time of its formation, was equipped with only one artillery battalion from the remaining munitions; And the 1st Division, because it was expanded from cavalry brigades and infantry brigades, did not even have a single artillery. This is a great help!
Zhang Hanqing is not like this. He also wanted to imitate this kind of cannon: "Father, it is not a long-term solution to buy arms, and others can jam our necks at any time. The Mukden Arsenal now has the ability to copy Mauser rifles and make shells in small batches, and if a certain amount of financial support can be given, it is estimated that it will not be difficult to imitate cannons. I talked to Yang Wenkai and Deng Yancun before, except for the firing pin, which currently needs to be imported from Germany, our existing equipment capacity can build a small number of artillery. It is said that these 41 mountain cannons are much better than the Trinity in terms of power, speed and range, and I mean we might as well use them as a basis to imitate our own mountain artillery. ”
Zhang Zuolin is very brave to try things that can increase his strength. He nodded and said, "That's right." I also have some money in my hand now, and I am considering whether to buy arms or build arms. I'll discuss it with my neighbor and see how we do it. "Lin Ge is Yang Yuting, who is also the general supervisor of the arsenal, and is also Lao Zhang's Zhiduoxing.
Father and son have a heart-to-heart and talk about everything. Zhang Zuolin talked about Tang Yulin to Zhang Hanqing: "This kid, I wanted to shoot him at the beginning, but he fell to this point and it was smoothed out." In any case, the cabinet ministers did their best when they were with me, and I can have today, which is inseparable from the contribution of him, the auxiliary ministers, and Zhan Ao. At this juncture, I decided to let him go. First, the old brothers in Fengtian are all watching, and secondly, he hasn't done much of a crime, you see? ”
Although Zhang Hanqing knew that Tang Yulin later committed evil and fled as soon as he fought with the Japanese, he was an out-and-out Japanese-phobic, but fortunately he was not a traitor. According to the strategy of dividing the civil and military forces that he deved, it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to go to the scourge in the future. Besides, his influence in the Feng army was still very great, as soon as the 28th Division surrendered, many people pleaded with Zhang Zuolin, which he knew.
At the beginning, it is better not to let his subordinates feel cold, I guess this is also my father's mind. He echoed and said: "What my father thinks is, but Tang Yulin is not suitable to lead troops at present, and he can't be given a higher position, otherwise others will follow suit, and he will drop the chain at a critical time, how can my father lead people?" I mean give him the false title of Military Councilor of the Overseer to hang on to see what happens. ”
Zhang Zuolin was very happy to see that the last resistance to using Tang Yulin had also been eliminated. He is well aware of Zhang Hanqing and Tang Yulin's filthiness, and he is afraid that Zhang Hanqing will be eager to oppose it---- but when will he take care of his son's feelings when employing people?
Seeing that although his son was astonishingly resourceful, he could still listen to persuasion, so he said to Zhang Hanqing what he had hidden in his heart: "Little Sixth Son, it is rare for our father and son to have a heart-to-heart relationship today, I want to ask you, according to the theory that the People's Party controls the power, is it Wang Yongjiang who is the governor of this province, or Wang Yizhe, the secretary of the Fengtian Provincial Party Committee appointed by you?" ”
At present, the scale of the People's Party is not large, and except for the people of Xinmin County and the Guard Division and the First Division, who are the main force of party members, all other party members are now ordered to form party organizations in various parts of Fengtian and Heilongjiang Province. Wang Yizhe is not only the director of the political department of the two divisions, but also the head of the organization department of the Central Committee of the People's Party, in addition to guarding the headquarters of the provincial city to handle affairs, he is also the secretary of the provincial party committee in Fengtian and the secretary of the municipal party committee in the provincial capital. Xinmin County is a pilot project of the People's Party, and all administrative affairs, big and small, are reported to Wang Yizhe, the superior of the county party committee, which is stipulated in the party constitution. But after coming and going, the mayor of Fengtian and the governor of Fengtian all feel that there is such a meaning of a country within a country?
Not only in the provincial capital of Mukden, but also in other areas infiltrated by the People's Party members, the local government has successively reported that the People's Party has a tendency to "usurp power and seize power", and according to its party members, "We want to seize the executive power and let the party govern it." "Because the party was now formed by a young marshal, it is not yet possible to seize the throne, but government officials everywhere are worried: power is going to be handed over to the People's Party, what should we do?
