Chapter 183: The Heroes Rise Together 2

But regardless of these trivial things, Zhang Huzi wantonly recruited troops and horses, and he looked confident, which made many people speculate that his military salary had already been shouldered. As for who this "someone" is, it's really hard to guess, at least Zhao Yun's head didn't analyze which force was behind it.

Could it be Japan? Zhao Yun thought about it, and there was only one force, after all, Mongolia had rejected them, and now it seemed that there was no play, so the only one who could make a difference in the Northeast was this bearded "leading brother".

On the same day, according to the newspapers, in the early morning of April 12, 1922, 400 Feng troops had arrived in Tianjin, and more than 6,000 Feng troops were crossing the Shanhai Pass, and they were stationed in the area of Beijing and Tianjin. Some eyewitnesses said that the Feng army quietly drove more than 20 trucks back and forth between the weapons depot under the management of the War Department outside Chaoyangmen in Jixian County and the military food city where it was stationed, and some people swore that the truck was full of all kinds of ordnance and artillery shells.

"It's so fast!" Zhao Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw that his marching speed was because the Mongols were mainly cavalry-based troops, and seeing that Zhang Huzi already had a mechanized team.

However, just when the people inside and outside the customs were panicking and all kinds of gossip was spreading, Zhang Huzi's representative sent a letter of appointment to Timur.

And this thing, Timur sent to Zhao Yun early in the morning, and on the Naadam of Kulen, the representative of the Feng department sent this great gift, which was about the integration of the Chechen army by the Mongolian Economic Envoy.

"Temporarily organize a cavalry division, and appoint Timur as the commander of the lieutenant general." Zhao Yun scratched his head, this beard really dares to seal it!

I have to say that this price is a bit low, but Zhang Hu is not stingy, and there is a big gift behind this, "Hulunbuir is its station!" Zhao Yun read it out silently, this beard is really "generous"! The old nest of the Chechen Ministry and Hulunbuir, these two places are connected to Lao Maozi, in case Lao Maozi is unhappy one day, he can come to the door at any time.

Zhang Huzi received assistance from the Japanese, and it was estimated that resisting Soviet Russia was one of the important conditions, and now Zhang Huzi changed hands and threw this biggest burden to Timur and them.

However, Zhao Yun originally considered taking refuge in his direct family. In fact, it is not what Zhao Yun thinks, Duan Qirui is pro-Japanese, and Zhang Zuolin is also pro-Japanese; Behind the direct warlords, it is not British and American imperialism that is backing them. Anglo-American-Japanese imperialism also intervened in the revolutionary parties in the South.

The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are basically the British sphere of influence, and without the nod of the British, all kinds of large-scale equipment cannot be transported into the mouth of the Yangtze River. As for that Sun Cannon, he has connections with the United States and Japan.

In the days when the heroes rose together and competed in the Central Plains, Wu Peifu seemed to give people a more 'glorious' image.

During the May Fourth Movement, Wu Peifu was the only warlord who sent telegrams one after another opposing the signing of the Paris Peace Treaty, advocating the cancellation of the Sino-Japanese secret treaty, and supporting the student movement. Although there were some trendy moves, it still brought Wu Peifu a reputation.

At that time, he was like a 'patriotic soldier'.

In his living room, there is often a couplet: "Civil officials should not be corrupt and traitorous, and military attachés should not compete for territory!" Although he didn't do it, he didn't leave the impression that he was the "Demon King of the Mixed World" Zhang Zongchang and the like.

But it was the king who was directly chosen. Because in addition to greedy for pleasure, the king is also easier to control, this Chechen Khan has no contact with the direct family, and the direct family is afraid that the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and there is a "Mongolian independence".

"Yes, let's be blessed! You go and talk to them, and you say that these places are too close to Lao Maozi and there is no strategic buffer, and if you can give us the place north of the Rehe Great Wall, we will accept his reorganization. ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it immediately!"

Zhao Yun had to admire the efficiency of the warlords in this era, less than four hours. After inspecting Timur's army, the representatives of the Feng department made a decision on the spot.

Of course, the soldiers of the Eastern Mongolian tribes and the Chechen tribe were all sent to the Feng Department for review, but after the baptism of war, these Mongolian soldiers had begun to transform into a real soldier. Although the military posture and so on are still miserable, once the posture is opened, it is definitely a qualified soldier.

At first glance, the army was not a team of tofu scum, and the ordnance was not bad, and the representative of the Feng department immediately dragged Timur and did not let go, Hulunbuir said that Rehe needed to seek the opinion of Zhang Huzi himself, so the two sides immediately signed a draft agreement. As for Timur, they will not be able to send a telegram, and the Feng Department is also very enthusiastic, and immediately sent Ling Sheng and others.

This dazzling action made several representatives of the surrounding people smack. Someone whispered, "I heard that Zhang Huzi dug up many instructors of Yushuai (Wu Peifu) Baoding Military Academy, and I used to think it was hearsay, but now it seems that it should be true." ”

The Baoding Military Academy was founded during the Yuan Shikai period to train officers for the Beiyang warlords. Originally known as Baoding Dongguan University Hall, it was later changed to Baoding Military Academy. It was suspended for a while, but after Cao Kun was stationed in Baoding, it was restored again.

However, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes.

This school, from the first principal Jiang Fangzhen, was presided over by people from the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, training officers for the Chinese army. You must know that in 1922, there was no Whampoa Military Academy, this school was NO.1, and the cadets who came out were all rushed to ask for it.

However, after Wu Peifu rose, he decided to squeeze out the pro-Japanese faction and sent Zhang Hongxu, who was born in the Beiyang Military Academy, to take over as the principal, preparing to cultivate his own forces.

So, disputes arose, and Zhang Huzi took the opportunity to send a special car to pull away a large number of instructors from this school. It's equivalent to pumping Wu Xiucai's blood! Oh! No, it's supposed to be bone marrow!

After listening to these rumors a little, Zhao Yun estimated that these two guys would not really have a fight, right?

Will it? Wouldn't it?

As for who won? Zhao Yun doesn't know very well, but it seems that Zhang Huzi was killed by the Japanese, and from this point of analysis, it shouldn't have died in the hands of Wu Xiucai!

"Hey, I would have studied modern history if I had known, and I didn't have to think about standing in line now!" Zhao Yun muttered to himself in distress.

A middle-aged man of about forty saluted Timur and said, "I have seen Lord Timur!" ”

Timur immediately bowed in return, "How dare you, how dare you, the little one has seen the Fuguo Gong!" ”

This big man is Ling Sheng, the Daur clan, the Mo Rideng clan, the right-wing Zhenghuang Banner of Sauron, and the son of Guifu, the Mongolian capital in the late Qing Dynasty.

In 1917, the "deputy commander" of Babu Zabu, the commander of the "Manchurian and Mongolian Independence" Qinwang Fuguo Army, led more than 2,000 people to capture Hailar, abolished the Hulunbuir Deputy Metropolitan Office, and established the pro-Japanese "Admiralty's Office". At this critical moment, the young Ling Sheng organized a coalition of herdsmen of all ethnic groups, and under the leadership of the deputy capital Tong Shengfu, recovered Hailar, expelled the Sebujing's bandits from Hulunbuir, and prevented the Japanese imperialist forces from infiltrating the local government of Hulunbuir.

In the process of resistance between the Hulunbuir people and the gangs, Ling Sheng almost became the pillar of Hulunbuir. Later, Ling Sheng accompanied Lao An Ben to ask Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui, hoping to help send troops to recover their homeland.

However, these two warlords were both pro-Japanese, and they had already discovered how they dared to use force because they were supported by Japan.

After Ling Sheng appeased the exiled Shengfu Anben, he returned to his lost homeland without stopping, and traveled all over the Chenbalhu Banner, Sauron's right-wing Zhenghuang Banner, Erut, Yimin, Huihe, Xinbarhu's left-wing banner and right-wing banner, connecting the forces of all ethnic groups in Hulunbuir, and finally repaying the blood debt from the Sebujing's bandits.

Ling Sheng is stubborn, daring to do things, and pays attention to ethnic relations and regional characteristics in everything. During his term of office, he advocated the principle of re-pastoral grazing, adopted measures such as protecting pastures and forest areas, resisted the colonial rule policy promoted by the Japanese imperialists, and worked hard to safeguard the vital interests of the local people of all ethnic groups. After 1920, because of his outstanding achievements in the recovery of Hulunbuir, Ling Sheng, who had been promoted to the assistant of the two departments of Hulunbuir and Amber, successively served as the advisor of the Hulunbuir Aftermath Supervision Office, the advisor of the Heilongjiang Provincial Military Supervision Office, the vice president of the All-Mongolia Federation, the member of the Northeast Security Committee, and the adviser of the Northeast Security Headquarters.

Not to mention, Ling Sheng came to discuss with Timur about entering Hulunbuir to make corresponding preparations. For example, maps, the handover of departments, and military rations.

The military rations of the Mongols were among the most bullish in the world, not in vacuum packaging, but in terms of ease of consumption.

In this operation, Timur's troops consisted of the Chechen department, Eastern Mongolia, the captured and defected Western Mongolian tribes, the incorporated People's Party army, and the servant army. The number of people swelled to 40,000. These people are all going to eat, drink, and Lazar, so this operation cannot be set off at any time without preparation or provisions, as usual.

War requires years of preparation, the most important of which is the storage of food for the army, and the Mongols have passed down the ancestral craft in the hands of the so-called food storage skills of Genghis Khan's time.

And what Timur has to do now is to collect the Buler thorns that have been made by the various tribes in the district!

Generally, the calves raised in the summer are slaughtered in November, and the red meat with scarce fat is removed, and the winter temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius in Outer Mongolia is used as a natural refrigerator to keep it fresh. Of course, this work cannot be carried out in the snow and ice, and it is generally carried out in the house to slaughter the thick red meat and dry it. After drying, the red meat becomes jerky, which can ensure that the meat quality is not rotten. This takes two years, and when the meat is completely dehydrated, the red meat weighs only one-fifth of what it used to be.

At this point, it is not over, the dry and hard meat is beaten so that the meat is gradually stripped away, only the fibers remain, and the fibrous meat is mashed and compressed in a stone mortar. Finally will

The dried, hardened meat is placed in a bag made from the bladder of a cow.

A bag made of a cow's bladder can be stuffed into the red meat of a whole cow, and the bouler thorn is completed and can be carried out on the go. These jerky, put in hot water, the meat will expand several times.

One bag of such meat is enough for 10 soldiers on the battlefield for three weeks. In the time of Genghis Khan, the size of the expedition could be estimated by the hanging buler thorns.
