Zhang Zuolin was not stingy with his official position to the seventy-nine warriors who came back from prison, and said to the adjutant halfway through the meeting hall: "Go and commend these seventy-nine warriors in a draft article, who is the leader?" ”

"Dai Shucheng, the regimental deputy of the Guards Brigade, and Lu Guangbiao, the battalion commander of the Guards Brigade."

Zhang Zuolin stopped: "Both of them are from the Guards Brigade?" Plagiarism's subordinates? No wonder, a good soldier brought out by the image. One of these two people was promoted to brigade commander, one to regiment commander, and the rest were promoted by half a grade. ”

"Let Heilongjiang prepare well, and I will leave in a few days to comfort our warriors."

Zhang Zuolin is happy from the bottom of his heart, since the defeat of the Zhifeng War in North China, he is now most in short supply of officers, and it is difficult to find officers who are easy to recruit soldiers. At this time, he was replenished with seventy-nine officers at once.

When he walked to the front of the conference hall and was about to push the door, he saw his little sixth son yawning and covering his mouth with his hands over from the other side of the garden. Seeing this situation, a heroic feeling of shortness of breath arises spontaneously, how can a good person fall in love with drugs. His own son, the continuation of his own life, and the future heir of the Northeast, but he is an addict who can make him not worry.

The supply of drugs doesn't matter to his family, how much will there be, and the key little six sons are completely useless. He sighed and said to his son: "Little Liuzi, you should find a good doctor to help you get rid of drugs, and if you continue like this, you won't attend the meeting." ”

The young little sixth son looked at Zhang Zuolin with confused eyes, although he yawned for a long time, Zhang Zuolin still understood what he meant by Lao Tzu wanting to give up on him.

"Dad, I'll quit, I promise I will, give me a year." This is a matter of his own life in the future, and Xiao Liuzi does not dare to be careless.

"Little Liuzi, I will only give you ten months, you are my most important son, don't let Lao Tzu down." Zhang Zuolin crossed the threshold of the door of the chamber.

Zhang Zuoxiang, Wang Yongjiang, Zhang Jinghui, Guo Songling, Sun Liechen, Yang Yuting, and others have already sat down in the conference hall.

Zhang Zuolin took his son to greet his capable generals with a smile and sat at the top. Xiao Liuzi stood behind him listlessly, Sun Liechen and the others exchanged glances with each other, and they had lost confidence in Xiao Liuzi's performance.

Zhang Zuolin also saw that his brother was dissatisfied with his son, what could he do, if he didn't serve a big smoker, he cleared his throat and said, "Do you all know about it?" Seventy-nine officers ran back from Xuzhou, Jiangsu, this is really not a simple road of thousands of miles, I heard that a few of them almost died of illness on the road, but fortunately one of them returned to the northeast. ”

"Yes, it's not easy, especially the few people who took the lead have made great contributions." Zhang Zuoxiang knows how far Xuzhou is to the northeast.

Sun Liechen said: "The marshal has to hurry up and let this group of people return to the team, the army lacks officers." ”

"It's not that there is a shortage of officers, it's that there is a shortage of officers, Wu Peifu, a puppet and Jiangsu, a second lieutenant officer wants us to pay Wu Bai Dayang, and now it's a price a day."

Hearing this, Zhang Zuoxiang lowered his head, he was embarrassed to raise his head, his two battles were all wiped out, if Zhang Zuolin hadn't exchanged him for 150 catties of gold, he would still be locked up in Xuzhou.

Zhang Zuolin knew that Zhang Zuoxiang felt uncomfortable, so he said: "Zuoxiang, there is no need to blame yourself anymore, I don't blame you, if you want to blame, we can only blame us for underestimating the Jiangsu army." Most of the people who escaped this time were officers of the Guards Brigade, your men. ”

"What do you think of the arrangement?"

Zhang Zuoxiang raised his head in shame and said, "Let them come back to reorganize the Guards Brigade, I am familiar with all of them, and they are easy to use." ”

Fengtian * Wang Yongjiang said: "The commander can't, these 79 people should stay in Heilongjiang, there is a shortage of officers like Fengtian, the officers on Fengtian's side have been selected some time ago, and moving the seats to these 79 people will cause dissatisfaction among the current officers." ”

At the age of 20, he won the first place in the county examination and entered the official career. In the 7th year of the Republic of China, he was promoted to Fengtian*. This literati was born at odds with Guo Songling, Sun Liechen, Zhang Zuoxiang, and Tang Dahu, a group of bandits, mainly because he couldn't see the recklessness.

In 1916, Zhang Zuolin went to Fengtian to oversee the army and *, in order to show that he was recruiting a corporal, he learned from Zhuge Liang to invite the literati Wang Yongjiang to be the police commissioner of Fengtian. I don't know if Wang Yongjiang wanted to be an official or was moved by Zhang Zuolin and took refuge in Zhang Zuolin.

At that time, Shenyang's social order was a mess, the police were scolded as "patrol dogs", the soldiers from the green forest were rampant and domineering, and incidents of beating and scolding the police occurred from time to time.

One day, Song, a subordinate of the commander of the 53rd Brigade "Tang Dahu" (Tang Yulin), was picking quarrels and provoking trouble in Pingkangli, and was arrested and taken into the police station by the police who rushed to hear the news. "Tang Dahu" thought that he had saved Zhang Zuolin's life, so he had no fear, led a large group of guards to break into the police station, slapped the pistol on the table, and ordered Wang Yongjiang to release him. Wang Yongjiang initiated a literati temper and ignored it.

"Tang Dahu" couldn't hold his face, so he immediately went back to gather troops and surrounded the police department tightly, and a battle was about to start. Wang Yongjiang also immediately ordered the police to be on standby, and set up a small steel cannon in the compound of the police department, ready to open fire at any time to counterattack.

Because of the big trouble, Sun Liechen, Zhang Zuoxiang and others came forward one after another, asking Zhang Zuolin to remove Wang Yongjiang, and even armed Jin Jian, and made a big disturbance in the military supervision department.

Wang Yongjiang took defense as an offense, asked for resignation on the grounds that his mother was seriously ill, and returned to his hometown.

Zhang Zuolin rarely dealt with literati, and he was in a mess for a while, but later he thought about it again and again, so he had to make a scene to prevaricate. He slapped the table, pointed at Tang Yulin's nose, and scolded: "Mom, pull a!" The state has its own laws, and the military has military regulations. Are you so noisy, are you impatient? Tang Yulin couldn't get angry, so he pulled his team and went to Xinmin County.

After the situation calmed down, Zhang Zuolin invited Wang Yongjiang back from Jinzhou. Soon after, he was transferred to the post of Minister of Finance and Director of the Bureau of Tobacco and Alcohol*. Killing two birds with one stone in this way can not only ask Wang Yongjiang to solve the stubborn financial problems, but also make Tang Yulin and other old subordinates feel more comfortable and harmonious. But since then, several capable generals of Wang Yongjiang and Zhang Zuolin have taken over Liangzi.

As soon as Zhang Zuoxiang heard Wang Yongjiang say this, he immediately became popular, it is a person who has three points of fire, and this is related to whether his most elite subordinates can stay on fire or not.

"Wang*, you should pay more attention to your own business, these seventy-nine people are military officers, not the county magistrate of any county."

Wang Yongjiang thought in his heart that this straw bag was no wonder he lost the battle, and he didn't even know a little simple way of employing people, if these seventy-nine people returned to Mukden, it meant that seventy-nine people would have to make room for them. Now that the Northeast is unstable, can it create instability again? These bandits are thinking about their own turf.

"General Zhang, although I am an administrative official, I was summoned by the marshal today to discuss matters, so what is wrong with me expressing my opinion? Didn't the general think that when these seventy-nine people returned to Mukden, they would squeeze out the current position of the seventy-nine people and cause instability to Mukden? ”

Although Zhang Zuolin was born as a bandit, he has been in charge of the Northeast for many years and has deep feelings about the questions raised by Wang Yongjiang, and knows that at this time, he must not cause confusion in people's minds.

"It's not that I'm talking about you, Yongjiang* was personally invited by your eldest brother and me to attend the meeting, look at what Yongjiang* said, you still have to obey, we old people can't think of this for a day."

"I think I will arrange these seventy-nine warriors in Heilongjiang according to what Yongjiang* said, and telegraphed Wu Junsheng, the overseer of Heilongjiang, to send me the results of the seventy-nine people's arrangement, and ask him to arrange this matter carefully."

"After Wu Junsheng arranged these seventy-nine people, I personally went to Harbin to reward them. Give them honors and money, I have arranged for the adjutant to give each of them a half-level promotion on the way here just now, the leading Dai Shucheng has been promoted to brigade commander, and Lu Guangbiao is the regiment commander, and now it depends on how Wu Junsheng arranges it. ”

Zhang Zuoxiang was not very happy when he heard that Dai Shucheng was promoted, Dai Shucheng was the person he had been suppressing and hiding, and he knew that he had too many secrets.

"Dashuai, you won't mention it too quickly, will you?"

Zhang Zuolin said with a smile: "Not happy, not happy, if anyone can bring back my seventy-nine officers unscathed, I will reward him as a brigade commander." Besides, this Dai Shucheng has always been a cadre of the Guards Brigade, and he is educated and courageous. ”

Zhang Jinghui, Guo Songling, Sun Liechen, and Yang Yuting thought that Zhang Zuoxiang was captured and exchanged for 150 catties of gold, and at this time, some of them couldn't bear the face and were embarrassed to let their subordinates accept the reward, so they all said that Zhang Zuoxiang was wrong, no matter who had merit, he must be rewarded and punished, and those who should be rewarded must be rewarded, and those who should be promoted must be promoted.

Zhang Jinghui was the hardest working at this time, and he said on the side: "Marshal, in my opinion, let these 79 people set up a new Heilongjiang First Brigade in the Heilongjiang area, let Dai Shucheng be the brigade commander, and Lu Guangbiao will be the deputy brigade deputy and the head of the first regiment. Wait for them to train and then replenish them to Mukden. ”

Sun Liechen said approvingly: "It's still a good idea for Jinghui, not only does it not treat these warriors badly, but it can also help us train good soldiers, and I think it's feasible." ”

Wang Yongjiang almost tore his face with them just now, and he didn't want to talk nonsense about this arrangement.

Zhang Zuolin also felt that this idea was good, these 79 people were able to escape thousands of miles from Jiangsu and return to the Northeast, and their loyalty was unquestionable. With them, Zhang Zuolin can rest assured that it is most appropriate to form a new brigade in their hands.

"Well, if this idea is good, let's issue a document, form a new brigade, brigade commander Dai Shucheng, brigade deputy Lu Guangbiao and head of the first regiment, and the rest of the regiment commanders and battalion commanders will be selected among these seventy-nine people, I want to let the world know that all the warriors who are loyal to the Northeast will be reused."

"The station was arranged by Wu Junsheng, the overseer of Heilongjiang, and the latest guns were transferred from the arsenal, and the military salary was directly allocated by the Marshal's Mansion."

Everyone didn't expect Zhang Zuolin to reuse these seventy-nine people so much, looking at this is not for show, but ruthless to build the new first brigade into the elite of the Northeast.
