One soldier after another was killed, Gao Shifu only felt a chill in the back of his head, no one could say whether the next bullet would fall on his head, judging from the current situation, as long as it fell into the hands of Feng Jun, he would definitely not end well, Gao Shifu thought about it, or he had to run away quickly.

However, these chariots were like dog skin plasters that could not be left at all, there were obstacles in front, and the pursuers behind were about to be killed, which really forced Gao Shifu to a dead end. However, as he ran, he found that there was a dense jungle not far ahead, and the current season was the time of the verdant vegetation, as long as he got in, those nasty chariots could not be stopped.

Therefore, Gao Shifu grabbed a life-saving straw, he ordered his subordinates to continue to move forward, as a cover, and then quietly sneaked into the woods to escape, into the dense forest, the war horse was useless, Gao Shifu had to use two legs to run wildly, one foot deep and one foot shallow, there are many mosquitoes in the mountains, and there are deadly black bears and tigers, there are poisonous snakes hidden in the shadows, and there are killing intentions everywhere.

After Gao Shiwei ran in, his subordinates also found out, and some people also ran in, but most of them chose to surrender, the risk of entering the mountain was still too great, and the Feng army would not be embarrassed by a group of big-headed soldiers, so these people took the initiative to become bandits.

"Division commander, the results of the battle are out, we have killed more than 600 of Gao Shiwei's subordinates, captured more than 800 people, and most of the Ji army has broken up and fled everywhere, should we continue to pursue?"

Sun Anhu asked Zhang Zuoxiang for instructions, Zhang Zuoxiang thought about it, and then said: "If we are dispersed, it will not threaten us for the time being, it is important to march to Changchun as soon as possible, we must form a strong pressure on Meng Enyuan, and only the Feng army will arrive in Changchun." Those who were dissatisfied with Meng Enyuan's shili talents jumped out. ”

After Zhang Zuoxiang gave the order, the Feng army rested for a while and continued to march, originally Gao Shifu was still deployed between Gongzhuling and Yitong, wanting to block the Feng army. But now the leader is missing, life and death are uncertain, and the people below have no fighting spirit, and their defenses are too loose, and their troops are not thick enough.

They were bombarded by the artillery of the Feng army, and they all scattered and fled. Zhang Zuoxiang led the army to Kuanchengzi without hindrance. At this time, as soon as the business people in Changchun heard that the Feng army was close at hand, their waists suddenly hardened, and they organized themselves one after another, went out of the city to work the army, and took Zhang Zuoxiang's army into Changchun.

Feng's army quickly defeated Gao Shifu. The news of the march into Changchun spread quickly, and the reactions of all sides were very different. After Zhang Zuolin got the report. Naturally, he was very excited and praised repeatedly.

"Fight quickly, Fu Chen played just right, now we have the initiative in our hands."

"That's right, Dashuai, there are nearly 10,000 people in Gao Shi's department. They are all the elite liliang of the Ji army, and now they are beaten to a pulp, and Meng Enyuan has no trump card in his hand, I think we should attack Jilin directly. Get the provincial city in hand, and the whole of Jilin will be our world. Zhang Jinghui said loudly, his tone was full of joy, among these old brothers, his position is the lowest, and there is no possibility of promotion in a short period of time, if he takes Jilin, Zhang Zuoxiang will be promoted, he can also take a step forward, the relationship between Zhang Jinghui and Zhang Jinghui thinks very clearly.

However, Sun Liechen on the side shook his head: "Marshal, I heard that the Japanese have gathered troops to Changchun, and warned us not to exchange fire in the annexed area, if a shell falls in the dependent area, they will take action." In addition, they are also seriously concerned about the safety signs of the Japanese expatriates, and they want to send soldiers to protect the expatriates, and I think the Japanese do not want us to fight them. ”

"That's right, if you continue to fight, Meng Enyuan's Shili in Jilin will fall apart." Yang Yuting said: "Marshal, I think it's better to march as soon as possible, take Jilin with lightning speed, and drive Meng Enyuan away, otherwise killing people will become enemies, and Meng Enyuan will definitely be iron-hearted against us in the future." ”

Zhang Zuolin's eyes rolled, nodded, and shook his head again: "Meng Enyuan really needs to take it, but it can't just rely on fighting, this is a reckless man's behavior, and besides, our financial resources are not enough to rectify Jilin, which Minyuan knows best." ”

Wang Yongjiang hurriedly said on the side: "Dashuai Mingjian, after the financial gap in Fengtian over the years has reached 10 million, we must develop education, develop agriculture, and invest in industry, all of which are huge investments, and Fengtian will definitely not be able to come up with enough money for the time being." ”

At this time, Zhang Zuolin was obviously very sober-minded, knowing the financial problems of Fengtian, and blindly relying on force without ghosts, which made Zhang Tinglan very pleased, no matter how thick the foundation was, he couldn't stand the toss, and in history, Lao Zhang wasted his precious troops and financial resources on entering the customs and fighting for hegemony, which greatly injured the vitality of the Feng army, and Zuihou lost the three eastern provinces.

It would be very good if Lao Zhang could realize this, but Zhang Tinglan was still a little unwilling, he didn't want to let go of this good opportunity to occupy Jilin, so he said: "Marshal, if you take into account the military spending, I don't think it's necessary, we can use the future trade tax revenue of Jifeng and Feng as a guarantee to borrow from the bank, and it will not be a problem to get three or five million." ”

According to Zhang Tinglan's wishful thinking, as long as Meng Enyuan is won, the business and trade between Jifeng and Feng will definitely be closer, and the tax revenue will definitely increase exponentially, which is also a good opportunity for the industrial group to expand, so there is nothing wrong with taking the initiative to bear the military expenses.

The smile on Lao Zhang's face did not decrease: "Humble words, it is really a way to make money, but three or five million is not enough, Lao Duan has already done it." ”

On the contrary, he was seriously dissatisfied with Zhang Zuolin's instigation of war and expansion of territory, and he successively mobilized three armies, one of which was Xu Lanzhou in Heilongjiang, and asked him to lead his troops from the direction of Heilongjiang, approaching Changchun, and directly inserting Zhang Zuoxiang's troops into the back of Zhang Zuoxiang's troops.

In addition, Zhang Xun made a move to patrol Mengjiang, and the pigtail army went north, threatening the flank of Fengtian, and at the same time transferring troops in the pass, approaching Shanhaiguan. These three armies attacked from three directions, and the deterrent power was still very strong, but one thing was very regrettable, that is, the speed of movement of these armies was far less than that of the Feng army, and before they could complete the mobilization, the Feng army had already defeated Gao Shiwei and won the Changchun line.

There is another point that is Zhang Xun, this old guy has just taken office as a patrol envoy in Mongolia, originally he only controlled one city in Xuzhou, and now he controls three provinces, it seems that the shili in his hands is expanding very quickly, but the old guy knows that the taxes of these three provinces add up to not much more than one Xuzhou, and there are more places to spend money, and he has to face the attack of the bandits, Zhang Xun called it fooled.

As a result, at this time, Fengtian threw an olive branch to Zhang Xun, and the two sides joined forces to engage in smuggling and develop border trade, and Fengtian Bank promised to pay Zhang Xun 2 million yuan first, which immediately solved Zhang Xun's urgent need and allowed him to quickly straighten out the situation in the three provinces, so Zhang Xun was grateful to Zhang Zuolin.

Zhang Xun acquiesced to Kan Chaoxi's Chifeng stay-behind position, of course, Chifeng's taxes will be handed over to him in the future. After getting Lao Duan's order this time, although Zhang Xun also transferred troops accordingly, he secretly told Zhang Zuolin the news and asked him to be prepared.

"Although Zhang Xun won't really do anything with us, Lao Duan's actions have to be guarded against."

Speaking of this, Zhang Tinglan is also completely sober, it is true that it will definitely not work by force alone, Zhang Tinglan also noticed Lao Zhang at this time, it seems that this Zhang Dashuai does not have too much worry, but looks confident, it seems that most of Zhang Zuolin has a way to deal with it, Zhang Tinglan simply stopped talking.

Lao Zhang's power is getting stronger and stronger, and sometimes he has to know how to advance and retreat, and in front of the public, he must give Lao Zhang enough opportunities to show his unfathomability.

Zhang Zuolin glanced at his henchmen and favorite generals, and then said: "You all perform your own duties, and in addition, you will humbly say that you want to encourage the business community in Jilin, let them jointly write to Beiyang, remove Meng Enyuan, and mobilize public opinion to bring out all his evil deeds, so that his reputation and prestige will be ruined." ”

After Lao Zhang finished his order, everyone dispersed, and as soon as Zhang Tinglan came out of the Tiger Hall, he collided with Zhang Xueliang head-on.

"Student Zhang Hanqing, if I'm not mistaken, today is not a day off, you ran to the house, tell me, what kind of punishment do you want?"

Zhang Xueliang suddenly said with a hippie smile: "Humble words, I'm not skipping school, my father asked me to come back." ”

"Oh? When did Da Shuai talk so well, you're not lying, are you? ”

"How dare I have that guts, I'll tell you the truth, my eldest sister and brother-in-law are here, and my father asked me to go home to accompany the guests."

Speaking of this, Zhang Tinglan remembered that Zhang Xueliang also had a sister above him, three years older than him, called Zhang Shoufang. A few years ago, Zhang Zuolin's original partner Zhao passed away, and Zhang Shoufang, the elder sister, took on the mission of taking care of her brother.

Later, Zhang Shoufang also got married, and his son-in-law was Zhang Zuolin's hair, Bao Yinglin, the son of Bao Guiqing, the current head of the Beijing Lecture and Martial Arts Hall.

However, after Zhang Tinglan heard the news, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he finally thought of what Lao Zhang was planning. Since Lao Zhang is not ready to fight, and wants to take down Meng Enyuan, it is necessary to find a suitable successor, especially one that Duan Qirui can recognize.

This Bao Guiqing and Zhang Zuolin are fellow countrymen, and the relationship between the two families is very close, Zhang Zuolin's mother and Bao Guiqing's mother even help each other to nurse each other's children, and the two of them also grew up with bare butts. It's just that Zhang Zuolin fell into the grass later, and Bao Guiqing took refuge in Beiyang and became a member of Beiyang.

The contact between the two sides has not been broken, and the child was set up early, speaking of intimacy, Bao Guiqing is no worse than Zhang Zuolin's sworn brothers, Bao Guiqing was born in Beiyang, and is Lao Zhang's son and daughter's family, which is indeed a good choice that can be accepted by all parties.

Zhang Tinglan had a number in her heart, and a smile appeared on her face: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen each other for several years, I should also go to see Shoufang!" (To be continued......)
