At this time, Hailan Pao was not completely controlled by the [***] team, and there was nearly a division of the troops stationed in Hailan Pao, and the two sides were actually in a state of confrontation in Hailan Pao, when Zhang Zuolin was able to occupy Hailan Pao, it was also a time difference, and in order to deal with the Russian harassing troops, the army was transferred out of Hailan Pao, Zhang Zuolin took the opportunity to enter Hailan Pao, because he was already preparing to develop the Far East with the help of China, so he only adopted a confrontational attitude, but the situation of the Feng army was not good.

Zhang Zuolin heard Wu Tong say that there were twenty wagons of materials to be sent, Lao Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this ginseng was not given in vain, now the most lacking thing in the Feng army is the materials, although the outer northeast is rich, but it has not been developed at all, and now it is winter, the weather is getting colder and colder, many soldiers can no longer stand it, and Lao Zhang is also struggling now!

"Elder Zhang, on behalf of more than 30,000 brothers, thank you, it's no secret, now the brothers are basically relying on frozen cabbage to support it!"

Wu Tong's brows were also furrowed, the southwest had also provided a lot of supplies to the Feng army before this, so it wouldn't be so embarrassing.

"Zhang Shuai, can you take me to the brothers' cafeteria?" Wu Tong's tone was extremely firm, Zhang Zuolin was not easy to refuse, so he could only nod in agreement, Zhang Zuolin, Wu Junsheng, Feng Delin, Zhang Zuoxiang, Tang Yulin, Sun Liechen, Zhang Jinghui and other senior generals in the Northeast were all accompanied by him.

After stepping on the thick snow and walking for a while, I saw a huge broken yard in front of me, only three sides were walled, and the remaining one was surrounded by birch bark and broken fur, and the wind was ventilated on all sides, and bursts of black smoke came out of it from time to time.

Wu Tong smelled a bad smell from afar, this is still winter, if the weather is hot, then it is bound to be worse, Wu Tong endured the violent reaction in his stomach, walked in, and saw that there were more than a dozen stoves inside, and a few soldiers were fiddling with a bunch of rotten cabbage, it seemed that this was today's dish.

Seeing Zhang Zuolin coming in, there was also a leading squad leader who reported to Lao Zhang: "Dashuai, the brothers have picked up two dead deer today, and they can add some meat to the brothers!" ”

This little soldier was originally beaming, but when he saw that the color on Zhang Zuolin's face was wrong, and then he saw that Zhang Dashuai was not the protagonist today, and there was a scholar-like person in the crowd of everyone, and he immediately knew that it was not good, didn't he lose people to Fengjun!

Wu Tong also looked the soldier up and down, only to see that the shabby cotton clothes he was wearing had revealed cotton, and then he saw that there were chilblains on his hands and face, one blue and one purple, he didn't look miserable!

Wu Tong walked closely and came to the stove, only to see a few bags of rice on the side, and the soldiers next to him wanted to cover it slightly with their bodies, but Wu Tong could still see that the rice was already a little moldy, and Wu Tong's heart sank when he saw this, the situation of the Feng army was far worse than he imagined, eating this kind of thing, it was already very good to be able to recapture the sixty-four tun, it was too difficult to forge ahead, glanced at Zhang Zuolin and others, Lao Zhang looked ashamed at this time, and Tang Yulin, Feng Delin and others looked disapproving.

"Brothers, do you usually eat this?"

"Chief of Staff, there are some difficulties in logistics and supply in the past few days, and if you treat the brothers badly, you will get better soon, you boys also heard that this is the person sent by Prime Minister Qiao, my Lao Zhang's top boss is the minister of Qincha, and the materials will be sent in a few days, you all tell the other brothers, the good day is coming!"

As soon as Lao Zhang said this, the cooking soldiers looked extremely excited, and their eyes were full of light, "Handsome, can you send some cotton clothes and shoes to the brothers?" Many of the brothers are now suffering from the cold! ”

"Shameless things, eating food and becoming a soldier is a suffering errand, if you can't even stand this little bit of suffering, go home, don't be an eyesore here, get out of here!"

Tang Yulin's face was gloomy at this time, and he suddenly reprimanded the cooking soldier, he looked very annoying with his arrogant look, Wu Tong's eyes instantly flashed a trace of unswerving, "Master Tang, the brothers' request is reasonable, why bother, not only cotton clothes and shoes, but also a large number of beef, medicine, fuel, everyone rest assured, you are the heroes of the restoration of your homeland, destined to be famous in history, the political axe will not treat you badly, and Premier Qiao will not forget you, this time I was sent here just to solve the difficulties for everyone, you can rest assured!" ”

After Wu Tong finished speaking, he left the humble canteen, "Zhang Shuai, the situation of the brothers in Fengjun is indeed not optimistic. ”

Zhang Zuolin's face turned red, nodded slightly, Wu Tong also knew that I was afraid that other canteens were not as good as here, and the surname Suo no longer inspected, but called Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zuoxiang and Sun Liechen stayed, and the rest of them went to their own affairs, Zhang Zuolin's office was selected in a small building of a Russian [***] official in Hailan, the environment is good, and the indoor temperature is also good, but at this time, the three people in Fengjun have some fever on their faces.

"Chief of Staff, I apologize to you, Lao Zhang, we have wronged the brothers!"

"Zhang Shuai, don't be in a hurry to take responsibility, the prime minister explained many times before I came, among the three eastern provinces, Zhang Zuolin is the number one person, and the border defense in the northeast will be handed over to you, but why is Fengjun embarrassed to the point where it is now, can you tell the truth, let's find a way to solve the difficulties together!"

Zhang Zuolin was also surprised when he heard Wu Tong say what Qiao Yu valued himself, it seems that the new prime minister is really hand-eyed, and it was said that he was also the support of this person who made him the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces, but now the situation of Fengjun is indeed a little too much.

Looking at Zhang Zuolin's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Sun Liechen on the side spoke: "Chief of Staff, Yuting is reluctant to say, then I will talk about it, Fengjun's current predicament is said to be responsible for myself and ourselves, after Yuting received the order to send troops to the northeast, he stepped up preparations, but he seemed to smell it, and resolutely opposed our dispatch of troops, and demanded that Fengjun must stay in the northeast."

At that time, we withstood the pressure of Yueben, wiped out all the Russian forces on the Middle Road, seized control of the Middle East Road, and then in the name of suppressing bandits, gathered troops to occupy Hailan Pao in one fell swoop, and then successively dispatched Feng Delin and Wu Junsheng and others to garrison, at the beginning, due to the rush to send troops, we were not fully prepared at all, and after arriving at Hailan Pao, our supplies were not abundant, and at this time, this time we frequently made it logistical difficult for us by controlling the railway, so that our supplies were intermittent and not abundant at all! ”

Sun Liechen said this, Wu Tong also nodded, he also knew this situation, he had been holding back the Chinese [***] team and obstructing China's action to recover the country, but the southwest had coordinated with this many times, and this was not an unspeakable word, and the difficulties of wanting to come to Fengjun were still on his own people.

"Staff Officer Sun, let's talk about Fengjun's own problems, is there a moth, if I remember correctly, long before the Russian Majority Party Revolution, Premier Qiao had already reached an agreement with Duan Qirui, and the southwest provided supplies to the army, and there would be a lot of hoarding, why is there no at all?"

"Chief of Staff, at the beginning, although some people frequently stretched out their hands, but there were still a lot of materials left, but after the outbreak of the revolution in Russia, Yue Ben sent a lot of people to Russia to intervene, and these said that the army was also not well prepared, so they searched for materials everywhere, and Feng Delin, Tang Yulin and others secretly stole and sold Fengjun materials, and said that he exchanged arms, so that the supplies of Fengjun were naturally insufficient, Feng Delin and Tang Yulin and a few of us were sworn brothers, tearing their faces to make outsiders laugh, so Yuting was not willing to say, It's all up to the chief of staff to decide! ”

In fact, according to the original historical trajectory, Zhang Zuolin had already become the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces, and Feng Delin had already been ruined because of his support for Zhang Xun's rebellion, and Tang Yulin gradually faded out of the inner circle of Fengjun, but because of Qiao Yu, Yuan Shikai's farce of becoming emperor fell more than a month earlier than history.

So that Zhang Zuolin and others didn't have time to react at all, they had already lost the opportunity, they didn't succeed in expelling Duan Zhigui like history, and they didn't become the Fengtian overseer, and then Duan Qirui got Qiao Yu's support and his position was more stable, Duan Qirui knew that Zhang Zuolin and others were not of the same mind as himself, and he would not give the ambitious old Zhang power, so he appointed Wang Zhanyuan, the Beiyang general, as the Fengtian overseer, and later promoted to the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces.

As the saying goes, one step behind, step by step, Zhang Zuolin lost this opportunity to make a career, so he could only continue to serve as the commander of the 27th Division, and Wang Zhanyuan listened to his own words on the issue of recovering the Middle Road, and did nothing, and finally Duan Qirui removed Wang Zhanyuan and supported Zhang Zuolin to take the position.

Suddenly rose from the division commander to the high position of the patrol envoy, although Zhang Zuolin showed enough ability, and sending troops to Hailan Pao also made him famous, but Feng Delin, Wu Junsheng and others were still able to compete with him, and Tang Yulin was even more unwilling to be only a division commander, since Zhang Zuolin was promoted to a patrol envoy, then he should be the Fengtian overseer, and it was this dissatisfaction that became a hindrance.

However, they also had a serious shortage of supplies, so they colluded together to openly resell military supplies, relying on the arms of the book to quickly expand their team, and also incorporated many White Russian soldiers in Hailanpao, threatening to replace Zhang Zuolin!

Sun Liechen said all this, and then Zhang Zuoxiang also added on the side, and finally Zhang Zuolin said with a stern face: "Chief of Staff, no matter how many reasons there are, it is Yuting who is incompetent, and he has the great trust of the Prime Minister, and I am sorry for the brothers of the Fengjun, I will definitely take decisive measures to rectify it, I only hope that the Chief of Staff can let the Prime Minister block the pressure of Yuben!" ”

Zhang Zuolin said the key point in one sentence, although the Feng army has a scum, Lao Zhang still has a way to deal with them, the trouble is himself, these little devils have seven divisions in the northeast, there are many people, without their support, I am afraid that Feng Delin and others will not dare to be so rampant.

"Zhang Shuai, isn't my supply insufficient?"

"That's true, there is a division of soldiers stationed in Hailan, the food and clothing are not enough, their military discipline is corrupt, they frequently go out to loot, not only rob property, women do not let go at all, this is still a joke, among the intervention troops in the Far East, the American GIs are the richest, the salary is more than ten times that of the Yue himself, those who came to the Far East to sell themselves are all covered by the Americans, and I can only rob Russian women everywhere, and I am not taboo, I want everything, and now the willow disease is spreading in the barracks, as long as you can't walk smoothly, most of them are infected with dirty diseases! ”
