    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out in people's eyes, the Chiang family was a successful young man, and the Japanese Emperor Taisho's gift of a sword had already made him famous throughout the country.  Because it is rumored that in the Japanese military academy, even if Jiang Baili did not take first place, the Japanese still could not get the sword from the emperor, because the second place at that time was Cai E.  The outstanding achievements of three Chinese people in the Japanese military academy made the Chinese people who were oppressed by the Japanese feel proud when they mentioned this matter. As a result, the reputation of the "Three Heroes of Beiyang" became famous in China, especially in the military circles.

    And Jiang¡¯s background and experience are also typical of many elites in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.  After returning to China, he was also active in the current situation. When he was the principal of Baoding Military Academy, he committed suicide with a gun, which added a lot of tragedy and made him admired by people at the time.

    At this time, Jiang Baili had served as the first-class counselor in the Command Office of the Presidential Palace for more than two years.  When Zhang Hanqing saw him, he was sipping tea elegantly.  Several of his colleagues, some with gray hair or gray temples, were enjoying themselves reading newspapers or chatting privately.

    The Command Office is theoretically equivalent to the modern Central Military Commission. However, in the early years of the Republic of China, the control of the military was in the hands of provincial generals, and the Office of the Presidential Palace could only be reduced to a think tank.  It only has the right to make suggestions on military matters, and this right to make suggestions is only valid for the president - not even senior staff officers - the Beiyang government has a separate Army Staff Department with senior staff officers.

    ??In the early days of the Beiyang government, there were many wastes waiting to be revitalized, and the country was extremely short of financial and material resources. The government was unable to carry out Jiang Baili's military plan.  At that time, whether it was Yuan Shikai or the important ministers of Beiyang, everyone was still considering purely tactical things, involving long-term strategic choices. It was not that they didn't want to, but that the conditions were insufficient.  Jiang Baili, who was good at strategy, was not tolerated by the Beiyang officers who formed cliques.

    The passionate Jiang Baili could only do things on paper. He organized a military research meeting with 11 people including Cai E and Yan Xishan to conduct in-depth research on various military academic issues.  During this period, he continued to write to Yuan Shikai, offering suggestions for national defense and army construction, and expressing his strong desire to build a strong armed force.

    But Lao Yuan did not regard him as a confidant.  The reason why he was made the senior counselor was just because of his name.  Of course, Lao Yuan still had "quite" respect for Jiang Baili on the surface: "You have a theory? Okay, okay, okay. The Army Ministry will study it carefully and submit a report. Oh, are you having difficulties? Then Fang Zhen, you  We also know that our Republic of China has just been founded and is full of waste. These ideas are good, but we don¡¯t have the money to do them for the time being. How about you study it first, and when the conditions are ripe, we will do it with great fanfare. It¡¯s not that we won¡¯t do it,  It's not that your theory is not good, it's that the conditions are not met now. The conditions are not met. Whenever you have new ideas, come to me directly~ That Adjutant Hao, order the security department, Fang Zhen only needs to come, no matter how busy I am.  Tell me directly."

    So now Jiang Baili is bright on the outside, but only God knows, earth knows, he knows, and his good friend Cai E knows the depression inside.

    Cai E is very familiar with the office.  Zhang Hanqing wants to visit Jiang Baili. This is nothing.  It can be seen that although Zhang Hanqing is young, he has an IQ that is not inferior to that of an adult.  When asked about Fengtian's military and political affairs, he was able to answer in an orderly manner. I couldn't help but think to myself: "Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog sons. It seems that Zhang Zuolin has put a lot of effort into his eldest son. It's okay, let Brother Fang Zhen do the military work."  If you enlighten me and rebel against Yuan in the future, it might really become a big help."

    To be honest, regarding Jiang Baili, Zhang Hanqing also knew his name from the pile of historical papers and his theoretical system of "exchanging space for time" against Japan, but that was all.  It can be said that Zhang Hanqing has nearly a hundred years more historical knowledge than them. This theory related to "Protracted War" has been proven by facts, but it did not shock him as much as when it was first published.

    What interests Zhang Hanqing is actually his identity as a military educator.  He himself has a very high status in the military (not position or power), and among his students are Chen Mingshu, Tang Shengzhi, Fang Shengtao, Liu Wendao, Zhang Zhizhong, Chen Cheng, etc. who have become generals of the "National Government" in history.  He also educated Jiang Ying, the daughter of a famous singer, and his son-in-law Qian Xuesen, a martial arts expert who would be well-known in the future New China. He also had a nephew Jin Yong (friends in the martial arts world will know this) and a relative Xu Zhimo (this famous  Needless to say).  Regardless of his subsequent contribution to China's military history, he himself is a legend.

    With his melancholy eyes and thin and handsome face, he can be regarded as the "idol of middle-aged and elderly women". This was Zhang Hanqing's first impression of him.

    Cai E is an old friend of Jiang Baili. They are so familiar with each other that there is no need for any politeness.  But he still introduced Zhang Hanqing to Jiang Baili in a grand manner and said: "Brother Fang Zhen, let me introduce you to a young friend. He is quite insightful in terms of military science."

    Everyone was shocked.

    "It must be quite remarkable to be called insightful by the world-renowned General Cai,"?I know that Cai E has a point of view and never gives in due to feelings.  He said that if this young man could do it, he must have two brushes.

    Zhang Hanqing calmly saluted Jiang Baili, who was also famous all over the world: "Uncle Cai Shi praised me, and my nephew did not dare to accept it. Xueliang has met Mr. Jiang." What he respected was not his position or his erudition, but his dedication.  The ambition and enthusiasm for China¡¯s rise.

    Jiang Baili looked at Zhang Hanqing, who looked childish, and felt extraordinary surprise in his heart.  He had enough confidence in Cai E and was also very interested in Cai E's military views. After all, this was his specialty and he had been immersed in it. However, he so solemnly recommended a young semi to him.  For older children, this is a bit exaggerated.  Military science is a very complicated subject. I have been immersed in it for half my life and I can only get a glimpse of it. How can this young man with a childish face have any shocking views?  From the looks of it, he probably hasn't even held a gun!

    But with Cai E¡¯s face, he could only praise the underachievers and said with a smile: "Oh, underachievers are scary, but I need to take a good test - Xueliang, what is your name?"

    Zhang Hanqing made a respectful gesture: "My nephew is called Hanqing."

    Jiang Baili nodded and said, "What books does Han Qing usually read?"

    Zhang Hanqing felt a chill in his heart. This was a typical expression of care for the students at school.  However, considering his status as the former principal of a military academy, this instinctive reaction is normal.  After thinking for a while, he said: "My nephew was fortunate enough to study under Jin Xihou, a great scholar in Fengtian, for several years. He usually dabbles in politics, economics, diplomacy, and military based on his interest. I originally wanted to enter Fengtian Lecture Hall to study systematically this year.  In the military field, my father wanted my nephew to come to Beijing to see the world, and he is currently studying at Peking University."

    Peking University, hehe, Jiang Baili can only hehe.  At this time, Peking University was definitely not as famous as it would be in later generations. Basically, in the minds of the aspiring people at that time, it was a place where high-level students were gold-plated.  Those who are truly capable can either go abroad, go to Tsinghua University, or join the army and make a career in the military academy.  In times of war and chaos, those who are able to devote themselves to studying and learning are indeed worthy of respect, but there will not be too many of them.

    "Have you missed the mark? A fifteen or sixteen-year-old kid knows a lot about military affairs, and he boasts about how involved he is? This must be someone's son who wants to come to Beijing to build his reputation. Songpo is just a human being who can't bear the shame of coming to help.  It's normal. I don't dare to say that I understand the economy; but as for the military, if I say I know a little bit about others, I can only say that I have dabbled in it. As for politics and diplomacy, it is really a big project. Which one of them doesn't affect the whole body? I guess it affects the whole body.  That is to say, the adults in the family chatting about some stories are overheard by the children, and the children take it for granted and listen and think about it based on their interest. It is possible that they may have some strange ideas.

    Using his own military strengths to test the juniors, Jiang Baili would not be so boring and just playing the piano to others.  But when it comes to talking about military and national affairs, the domestic political climate is not very healthy right now, so Jiang Baili doesn't dare to ask random questions - he is afraid that Zhang Hanqing will say nonsense.  Since it is determined that Zhang Hanqing is a descendant of a certain family of Cai E, he must be a person with a certain status.  The children may have overheard their private discussions about the current situation. If they are quick-tongued and do not have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and are accidentally pulled out of the conversation, are they not harming their parents?

    So he simply used what happened abroad as an example. The only thing in the world that can attract attention now is the world war that is going on vigorously, so he asked: "I wonder how much Han Qing knows about the current wars in European countries?"

    This is a big topic, it can be expanded or contracted, but it also allows Zhang Hanqing to express himself freely.  If you don't know, it's a different matter, but if you know that even if you can name the various countries at war, with Jiang Baili's shrewdness, you can naturally praise him and then perfectly close the palace.

    Most of the people in the command office were veterans with some reputation and status in the Beiyang military circles, and they didn't have much specific work to do. When they saw Jiang Baili's children taking the exams, they all put down what they were doing with a smile and listened to Jiang Baili's views on the international current situation -  ¡ª¡ªAccording to tradition, don¡¯t those who are teachers have to criticize?  With Jiang Baili's level, it is certainly rare to have the opportunity to listen to his analysis of the world war situation. If there is a military seminar in the future, everyone can broaden their horizons in advance, right?

    Zhang Hanqing was overjoyed, here we come!

    "Almost any student who has received the nine-year compulsory education system in later generations, as long as he is not a scumbag, should clearly and clearly make the most accurate comments on the First World War. After all, there are textbook answers.  For an angry young man like Zhang Hanqing, commenting on the First World War is really child's play. He can even go up to five thousand years, oh no, more, up to one thousand years.  World War I, a war that took place a hundred years ago, has been clearly unearthed. Don¡¯t doubt the IQ of those who have experienced it. Hindsight is both a derogatory and a affirmative.  Zhang Hanqing's first thought was not to make too accurate predictions, lest he appear too awesome!

    "The assassination of Archduke Ferdinand was the beginning of the European War, but without this incident, this war in Europe would definitely break out. According to my judgment, now is just the beginning, and a larger war is still to come. If we don't fight it,  They will not stop even if their heads are bleeding and their vitality is severely damaged. I think Uncle Shi's test of the younger nephew means the attitude that China should maintain and whether it can find opportunities that are beneficial to China?" According to history, Zhang Hanqing is confident.  Full.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The assassination of Archduke Dinan was the beginning of the European War, but without this incident, this war in Europe would have definitely broken out.  According to my judgment, this is just the beginning, and a larger war is yet to come.  They won't stop until their heads are broken and their vitality is severely damaged.  I think Uncle Shi¡¯s test of his younger nephew means the attitude that China should maintain and whether it can find opportunities that are beneficial to China, right?  "According to history, Zhang Hanqing is full of confidence.
