Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
When it comes to Xu Shichang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, we have to talk about Zhang Zuolin, the commander (brigade commander) of the front road of the Fengtian Patrol Battalion and the fifth battalion of the Mabu Army.
After the long baptism of fire in the Russo-Japanese War, this military genius who was originally born in poverty, the strength of his hands rose again and again, and in just a few years, he increased from three militia regiments and local battalions to five battalions of regular army.
In 19o8, Xu Shichang transferred Zhang Zuolin, who was effective in suppressing bandits, from Fengtian to Tongliao and Taonan in northwest Liaoning to eliminate the Mongolian rebels who had been bought by Tsarist Russia.
These bandits, although they sound like grass bandits, are actually no less than the regular regimental army, first, they are familiar with the complex and harsh terrain and climate of Taonan, and second, they have received funding from Tsarist Russia in terms of ordnance and ammunition and even military training, which in turn makes their power in Taonan stronger and stronger.
As a result, Zhang Zuolin's situation in Taonan was difficult at first, until Hao Enguang made one attack after another, and Wang Yaqiao put the backbone of the CIA's spy into the northeast battlefield, on the one hand, to increase the influence of the Guoshu Museum on Zhang Zuolin, and on the other hand, the people used this battlefield to suppress bandits as an opportunity to train spy personnel to fight.
In a short period of two or three months, the CIA took advantage of the chaotic situation in Taonan to break into the interior of several major Mongolian bandits one after another, and obtained a lot of key information, which reversed Zhang Zuolin's disadvantage in one fell swoop, and successively wiped out many large gangs of horse bandits and even the intelligence stations of Tsarist Russia.
By 19o9. Xu Shichang first expanded Zhang Zuolin's 5 battalions into 7 battalions, and then assigned Sun Liechen's troops stationed in Taonan to his command, so that Zhang Zuolin's troops increased to 35oo people, far beyond the forces under the jurisdiction of the regular commander, and then became one of the five strongest fighting forces in Northeast China.
Zhang Zuolin has a fiery temperament, but he is a person who knows how to be grateful.
Governor Xu Shichang valued him so much, he naturally had to work harder to suppress bandits, and at the same time, he paid more attention to and trusted the CIA, which had made great achievements one after another.
"It's a terrible force. Its role on the battlefield. Sometimes even outnumbered thousands of troops......"
After learning the news that Yang Meng had arrived in Mukden, Zhang Zuolin lamented the pervasiveness of the CIA and was very satisfied with the CIA's candor and sincerity.
For Yang Meng, Zhang Zuolin always thought that there was some mystery in his heart. Others may only know his attainments in national arts. But Zhang Zuolin learned from Hao Enguang's refuge in front of him and the CIA's successive help. Knowing that this young man's vision is vicious and his methods are so clever that it is impossible to figure it out. The most important thing is that if it weren't for his suggestion through Hao Enguang back then, I am afraid that Zhang Zuolin would not have risen rapidly because of the Russo-Japanese War.
Therefore, even though Zhang Zuolin has always been very clear in his heart that the Guoshu Museums that have spread all over the country in just two years are likely to be covered up on the surface of the CIA, but he is still the same as other local governors, pretending to know nothing about this matter, and when he saw that Xu Shichang was also assisted by Sun Lutang, he quickly improved the personal combat strength of the military and police in the three provinces and vigorously advocated the concept of strengthening the country and strengthening the species, only then did he feel a kind of admiration from Sun Lutang and Hao Enguang and other masters of national arts. Even subtly affected spirit and power.
This is the CIA's trick to infiltrate the military circles and then get involved in the political arena, but when you show the huge benefits, you will understand that even if this conspiracy has been placed naked in front of you, it is still an unstoppable feast.
What's more, compared with this extremely forward-looking and contagious conspiracy, the role of the CIA on the battlefield is even more irresistible.
What's more, compared to their secret investment in Zhang Zuolin and even Xu Shichang, Yang Meng's current requirements are simply not worth mentioning.
Not to mention providing some manpower and convenience, rescuing a few hostages from the Japanese mansion, even if he sent a small force to pretend to be horse bandits, Zhang Zuolin would not be surprised to attack Japan and even the Russian army's station.
More than 500 lancers, once Zhang Zuolin's net worth of life, but also he is now hiding a trump card, even in the name of expanding the strength of today, this force with Hao Enguang as the horse, accurate marksmanship can hit birds, and the martial arts under the horse are as strong as wolves and tigers, and they can definitely be regarded as the most unique and terrifying force in the huge system that revolves around Zhang Zuolin.
Of course, as a military force built up by Hao Enguang, how many of them are elites in the CIA, even Zhang Zuolin is not clear now, in fact, even if he understands in his heart that this force is the reward that the CIA asks from him, he does not want to get out of trouble with the CIA in the honeymoon period because of this.
Soldiers can be trained again, and money can be earned again, but important information that can affect the future career is what every ambitious politician attaches the most importance to.
It is strange to say that although both Xu Shichang and Zhang Zuolin are military and political officials loyal to the Qing court, under the influence of what the CIA has heard and witnessed in the past two years, they are now not as resistant to the so-called constitutionalism and democracy as later generations described.
can be in such a high position, either a hero or a hero, how can he take the initiative to alienate this useful force because of his temporary likes and dislikes and fame.
What's more, such an armed force that is almost a private force is not as numerous as a cow in the hands of those big merchants in China, and if you ignore its terrible individual soldiers, this number and scale of cavalry is even inferior to the so-called militia under the Jin merchants and the Hui merchants.
Therefore, the greater the achievements and prestige of Xu Shichang and Zhang Zuolin in the Northeast, the more dependent they are on this power with rock candy in one hand and dagger in the other.
First, this mysterious force is so hidden that some people say that it is just a killer organization created by a group of Jianghu people, and some people say that they have infiltrated the military and political system all over the country.
Second, although this force is terrifying, it has always been very low-key in its political tendencies, and has never propagated the arguments of various reactionary parties on the surface, but has only used national art and military training to constantly absorb elites from all over the country in the new-style schools and military ranks in various places, and even in many cases, they seem to be more opposed to those revolutionary parties that are blindly revolting everywhere, trying their best to reduce the losses of officials and gentry everywhere, and at the same time, they will also provide them with unimaginable assistance in many things that are not suitable for the official to come forward.
"From today onwards, you will temporarily take off this military uniform, take your war horses and rifles, and go on a secret mission according to Instructor Hao's instructions!"
In order to cooperate with Yang Meng and others in Fengtian City, Zhang Zuolin reluctantly handed over this lancer battalion to Hao Enguang, as for whether he was used to harass the Japanese troops outside Mukden, or wanted to engage those Harbin Russians, now it is no longer in his consideration, this delivery or transaction, is completely the first return on Yang Meng's previous investment in his difficulties.
"Mr. Yang is also half from the Northeast, I don't know how long I plan to stay this time?"
Zhang Zuolin's wolf-like gaze was reluctantly retracted from the lancer who silently checked the ammunition, and turned his head to look at the ordinary-looking bald man behind him, but on his somewhat painful face, there was a trace of respect and politeness on an equal footing.
Yang Meng was wearing a black national art uniform today, with a light and breezy expression on his face, as if these more than 5oo elite soldiers were just a stone, and it was not enough to cause any waves in his heart, "As long as I rescue Da Yuexun's mother and daughter, I will leave to go back to Shanghai, as for the losses that this operation may cause to General Zhang, in a few days, the senior class of HSBC will come to you for acceptance......"
Behind Yang Meng, Wang Yaqiao smiled and signaled to Zhang Zuolin at the same time, although the communication between the two in intelligence work over the years has not been once or twice, but it is the first time that they have come face to face at such a close distance like now, although it is because of the need for secrecy work, but more because Wang Yaqiao, who controls the iron-blooded hoe gang, is now becoming busier and busier in the spy battlefield and even in the entire underground world in the south.
Zhang Zuolin nodded, walked to Yang Meng's side gently, and stood quietly side by side with this young man with a little green on his face......
"I'll make more trouble for the Russians here in Taonan and Outer Mongolia, and when you come back from Harbin, we'll have a good ...... together."
Yang Meng stared into the distance, a faint smile on his face.
"General friendship, Yang Meng will be grateful in the future, this operation, I am afraid that there will be a lot of people involved, it will affect the situation of the entire China, Japan, Russia, and North Korea in the Northeast, if the general is idle, it is better to practice more soldiers in secret, the future should be of great use, Governor Xu will probably return to the center soon, when the time comes, the governor of Liaoning and even the Northeast Governor will not be able to do it!"
Zhang Zuolin's eyes moved, and his expression became more and more solemn, although Yang Meng said it easily, but he knew the deep meaning implied in these words, if the situation really unfolded as he said, the time would ......
Thinking of this, Zhang Zuolin can no longer care about the specific details of Yang Meng's operation, with his current identity Zhang Zuolin, he is really not qualified and there is no need to mix with it for the time being, and now as long as he secretly expands his troops, he can naturally take advantage of the huge impact of their transaction and action to pick the fruits that belong to himself or even others in the northeast......
