    Duan Qirui was helpless. Zhang Zuolin had already made it clear: Whether I am borrowing arms or robbing arms, they are all the property of the country. Who can use them?  Why favor one over the other?  Since you want me to work for you, you have to get some blood no matter what, right?  He, Duan Qirui, can't say that these arms are for him to recruit private soldiers!  As a result, Duan Qirui, whose weakness was touched, was angry and unable to express his anger, but his wariness towards Feng Jun became even deeper.

    Because Feng Jun quickly entered the pass, Feng Yuxiang's "surprise army plan" to attack Anhui could not be realized.  The Beijing government had previously ordered to replace Brigadier Feng Yuxiang. At that time, Feng Yuxiang had threatened that all officers and soldiers would advance and retreat with the Brigadier. At this time, the situation forced him to bow his head.  Ni Sichong asked the Beijing government to quickly telegraph Cao Kun to send troops to attack Feng's brigade "to eliminate the huge danger of the Yangtze River"; he also accused Feng Kang of refusing to explain, and added troops to block the upper and lower reaches of Wuxue, secretly going back and forth with Su Du's secret merchant army.  A brief summary of everything shows that his ambition is not limited and he is ordered by others.  But Cao Kun refused to send troops, so Ni Sichong did not dare to attack alone.

    Feng Yuxiang had already become prominent at this time. How to arrange this army was a problem.  Zhang Huaizhi suggested that Feng Brigade be transferred to Heilongjiang for garrison. Of course, Feng Yuxiang refused to be sent to the army and was "sent to the frontiers to serve."  Of course Zhang Zuolin would not welcome this army, and he still wanted to seep sand into Lao Zhang's territory?  It was not until March 18 of the following year that the Beijing government adopted Cao Kun's advice and gave Feng Yuxiang the sanction of "dismissal and retention". He kidnapped the army lieutenant general and was temporarily allowed to remain as brigade commander and handed over to Cao Kun for control and deployment. This is a story later.  .

    After Fengjun entered the customs, Zhang Zuolin made two demands: to remove Li Chun and to attack Feng Yuxiang. He said this was to "support the head of state."  But the head of state whom he supported was frightened and panicked.  On February 26, Feng Guozhang convened an emergency meeting at the Presidential Palace to discuss the countermeasures for Fengjun's entry into the Customs. He asked Duan Qirui with bitter eyes: "This time, Fengjun neither received orders nor reported before sending troops to enter the Customs. What is his motive?  "Duan Qirui replied that he didn't know.  Feng asked loudly: "What collusion did Xu Shuzheng, the former deputy army chief, do in Fengtian?" Duan Geng was too coy to say anything.

    Of course there was no result from this meeting.  Feng wanted Duan to ask Zhang Zuolin to withdraw. Duan was the original man who summoned Fengjun to enter the Pass. How could he ask Fengjun to withdraw again?  What's more, it's easy to summon a tiger but difficult to retreat. Even if he wanted to ask Zhang to retreat, he actually couldn't do it.  If you retreat, you can make yourself king, but if you advance, you will get all the benefits. How can Zhang Hanqing, who is well versed in this period of history, give up the fat he has obtained so easily; and Duan Qirui doesn't know that Zhang Zuolin, the king of Guanwai, is not easy to mess with, so he will not invite him.  It's easy to invite him out, but since he drinks poison to quench his thirst, he has no choice but to "go hard"!

    Feng Guozhang knew that it was impossible to ask Duan Qirui to withdraw from the Fengtian army, so he had to ask Zhao Erxun, who had served as governor of the three eastern provinces in the late Qing Dynasty, personally recruited Zhang Zuolin and supported him, to go to Fengtian to persuade Zhang Zuolin to withdraw from the army.

    Zhang Zuolin values ????love and justice. He has always been grateful and respectful to Zhao Erxun. In addition, Zhao is 31 years older than Zhang. Zhang Zuolin has always treated him like a father and taught his children to always call Zhao Erxun their grandfather.  But feelings are feelings, and politics is politics. As times change, Zhang Zuolin no longer wants to blame his old boss, but due to human feelings, he cannot directly refute him.  However, Zhao Erxun was getting old, and with Zhang Zuolin's Tai Chi skills, his run was ultimately in vain.

    Since Fengjun entered the customs, its momentum has been aggressive. On March 5, the first unit of Fengjun drove from Tianjin to Langfang and inspected passengers at the station, which shocked Chinese and foreign people.  The State Council in Beijing called to dissuade them, explaining that Langfang was not a martial law area and could not inspect passengers. Fengjun continued to perform his duties and ignored them.  However, the telegram sent by Zhang Zuolin was all about him. He said: "Sending troops and unarmed is because the head of state is determined to take charge of the war. The troops have entered the pass and have no way to retreat. If there is trouble on the Yangtze River, they can go south to provide assistance." He asked the Beijing government to  The government designated barracks in the Temple of Heaven for the troops to garrison, and did not wait for a reply. His subordinates were already looking for barracks in the Temple of Heaven and Nancheng.

    In order to unify the command of the troops in the pass, Zhang Zuolin made himself the commander and Yang Yuting as the chief of staff to control all the troops in the pass; Zhang Zuoxiang became the commander-in-chief of the rear route and stationed at Shanhaiguan to ensure that he could advance or retreat; Zhang Hanqing returned to Fengtian,  Taking charge of rear affairs, like a prince supervising the country.

    Seemingly to explain Fengjun¡¯s reason for entering Beijing, on March 7, Fengtian published phone calls between Zhang Zuolin, Cao Kun, and Zhang Huaizhi.  Zhang Zuolin stated in his song and telegram on March 5 that his purpose was to "support the Central Committee, maintain the overall situation, always unite, quell civil strife, contact comrades, and save people from danger together." He also said that the Tianjin Conference incorporated Fengjun into the first line, and later added  He was extremely sympathetic to the reorganization into the second route, and has now been organized into six mixed brigades. If they do not move out, it will be "distrust to comrades and unjust to my brother. Each brigade will arrive in Xu in a few days to join the main army."  , listen to the command."

    In this telegram, Zhang Zuolin tried his best to explain that "I have no personal ambitions. I have exceeded my wealth, fame, and power, so what else can I hope for? I only focus on the current situation, and I am expanding my strength to coach me."  For the sake of my brother, I have no other personal intentions. If there are any lies,?God observes.  "His ardent sentiments can only be sworn to heaven.

    Cao Kun's positive message on March 7 was to welcome Fengjun to the pass, praising Zhang Zuolin as "genggeng righteousness, upright and bright, a close friend of flesh and blood, life and death." Please Fengjun gather in Xuzhou and join the second route; please also send one or two more  A mixed brigade drove to Hankou and joined the first line."  Zhang Huaizhi's Yang Dian praised Fengjun's entry into the pass as "strengthening our morale and strengthening our backup", and said that Hanzhuang had been designated as the first stop for Fengjun's march south.

    Zhang Zuolin did not want his troops to serve as cannon fodder, but he had said enough and could not stop there.  While hesitating, Zhang Hanqing smiled softly after understanding: "This is easy. Uncle Xu has been idle for a long time. He has failed in the black province. It is better to let him go to Shaanxi to fight the 'Jingguo Army'."

    This Uncle Xu is Xu Lanzhou, who was taken over by Zhang Hanqing. He was the military armaments assistant of Heilongjiang Province, but the governor Bao Guiqing was wary of him. Wu Junsheng and Han Linchun had two divisions on the other side. He, the outdated division commander, was completely  There is no room for expression.  The original main force of his first division was disintegrated by Zhang Hanqing. The remaining troops were later organized into a brigade and had no serious territory to recuperate. They still relied on Zhang Hanqing for "support".  Zhang Zuolin still felt a little guilty about him, but Heizhou really couldn't accommodate so many dragons. Now he had the opportunity to solve a problem that he had, of course he was happy.

    After a heart-to-heart talk with Xu Lanzhou, Zhang Zuolin sent a message: "Xu Lanzhou, the former assistant military affairs officer of Heilongjiang Province, is loyal and brave to the three armed forces. At this time when the country is employing people, Zuolin does not shy away from personal feelings and recommends him as the commander-in-chief of the Shaanxi Bandit Suppression Army.  , will definitely shock Xiaoxiao and regain the lost territory." Xu Lanzhou led the troops again and naturally accepted the order happily.  In order to make up for his original "immorality", Zhang Hanqing managed to get him the much-needed 1,000 army horses and a large amount of baggage. Xu Lanzhou, who originally had some objections to Zhang Hanqing, had to express his gratitude again and again because the army was "cannibalized".  The grudge has disappeared.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
