    The military's training has become modernized and standardized, combined with the knowledge-based approach proposed by Zhang Hanqing. Fengjun's progress has been astonishing, and a series of structures have become more complete. The credit for this is due to Fengjun's own efforts, but more thanks to Zhang Hanqing's lobbying.  Former senior advisers to the German Army Staff hired by Zhang Zuolin.

    It is necessary to introduce the origin of this group of consultants.  Germany was defeated in World War I. According to the provisions of the Treaty of Versailles, it could only have an army of 100,000 people. A large number of professional soldiers were forced to leave the army. These people who knew nothing about other fields of knowledge and technology except military knowledge  Soldiers have become famous teachers that all countries (especially countries with relatively backward military fields) compete to hire.

    However, the Treaty of Versailles clearly stipulates that German citizens are not allowed to serve as military advisors in foreign armies. The German military hopes that they will serve as military advisors in foreign countries so that these retired personnel can take advantage of the opportunity to serve in foreign armies and acquire the latest military developments.  Knowledge and technology prevent the German army from experiencing gaps in military academics, and it also contains the hope that these personnel can continue to serve in the German army after returning to the country. Therefore, the German military provides these personnel with the opportunity to serve as military consultants abroad.  It is secretly encouraged and supported.

    ??And Zhang Zuolin¡¯s Northeastern United Provincial Autonomous Government, represented by Zhang Hanqing, began to contact the German military as early as 1918 before taking control of Northeast China.  The reason why Germany chose the Fengtian faction was because Japan seized all of Germany's interests in Shandong, China during World War I and was resentful about it. The Northeastern Marshal did not seem to have a harmonious relationship with Japan (Zhang Hanqing: More than harmonious,  I wish I could kill all the Japanese in China) with great enthusiasm and agreed in principle to send military advisers to Northeast China.

    Initially, the list of consultants proposed by Zhang Hanqing included a group of people who were famous in World War I, such as von Mackensen and Ludendorff. However, the German military believed that these people had too famous names and were easy to be discovered, so they declined politely.

    The first batch of German military advisers to come to China were Colonel Max Bauer, Lieutenant Stutzner and Second Lieutenant Hommel, which opened the honeymoon journey of Sino-German military cooperation.  Although Max Bauer is unknown, he once served in the German General Staff and won the appreciation of Chief of General Staff Ludendorff for his outstanding military talents.

    As a result, Sino-German military cooperation reached a climax. Not only did the two sides sign the "Five-Year Military Industrial Development Plan," but Germany also began to help the Northeastern United Provinces Autonomous Government establish a military industry.  Fengjun provided military equipment, and in assisting the reorganization and construction of the Northeast Army, submitted the "Army Reform Proposal", proposing to complete all 10 reorganization divisions (including 4 planned new expansion divisions) in batches and phases with limited material and financial resources.  ) training.

    During the process of reorganizing the army, Falkenhaus, who was the first head of the German Military Advisory Group at the time, made suggestions for the plan.  Under the training of German military advisers, the goal of each division of the Fengjun Army is to become a force that is not inferior to the Kwantung Army Army Division in terms of combat skills, numbers, and strength in the Far East.

    This is a good thing.  Zhang Zuoxiang and Wu Junsheng have become one of the troika of the Feng clan. Their concurrent positions as division commanders should be changed, right?  Together with the four new divisions, at least six lieutenant general and division commander positions will be freed up.  For soldiers, there is nothing more exciting than promotion and rank, especially for the brigade commanders of several mixed brigades. Many people have the opportunity to be promoted.

    However, for Zhang Hanqing, while he was happy with the expansion of the Fengjun Army, he was also a little disappointed because there was a high probability that he could only watch as these division commanders' positions were taken over by others.  Originally, he wanted to recommend several senior members of the People's Party to compete for these positions, such as the powerful Ji Yiqiao and the silently dedicated Lin Wei It is his responsibility, and also the People's Party's, to push them to the forefront as much as possible.  Opportunities to grow.

    But he could only give up.

    Because as the land reform in Northeast China deepens, some of his policies will inevitably conflict with many people.  An important direction of land reform is to combat land annexation, which at least affects the interests of Wu Junsheng, Ma Longtan, Zhang Jinghui and others.  Although Zhang Zuolin once said openly that there are many ways to make money, there is no need to tell the truth. The above-mentioned big bosses also wisely decided to cooperate with the young marshal's work, but after all, they are blocking people's way of making money, right?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Just because of their friendship, they can¡¯t stand the chance, doesn¡¯t mean that other people don¡¯t have ideas.  The phenomenon of land annexation is very serious in Northeast China. If the land of vested interests is to be "rented" to farmers, there will inevitably be some resistance.  If Zhang Hanqing hadn't wisely used "redemption" rather than "revolution" to proceed in a tortuous manner, his first step would not have worked.

    Revolution requires a gun

    Although Zhang Hanqing has marshal, deputy chief of general staff of Fengjun, general counselor of the patrol mission, and former director of the Border Defense and Appeasement Office, commander-in-chief of the Middle East Road Protection Army, and deputy director-general of bandit suppression.He was waiting for a series of dazzling halos, but he knew that there was only one that really mattered: the chairman of the People's Party's Military Committee.  Without him, he had the Guards Division and the First Division to back him up.  Without these two, he is just a young commander, respected, but not necessarily respected.

    Therefore, his focus on these two armies is certain. His two divisions are also self-contained, and the people he uses are all his own. Even the organizational structure is different from that of the Fengjun General Headquarters: Fengjun  The military headquarters has one chief and eight divisions, and his troops have a three-headquarters structure.

    This is not a problem, but when his power has exceeded that of several elders who started in the Feng Dynasty, voices of dissatisfaction began to appear.

    "Why do you want to interfere in the new division? You already have a lot of power!" This is the hostility he can feel.  Also, there is only such a big pool in the Northeast. If his body is too big, he will inevitably crowd in others.  Frankly speaking, the treatment Zhang Zuolin gave him was already high enough.  Even Zhang Zuoxiang knows that unity is the way to achieve greatness. If he, the eldest son, does not understand this truth, he will be too unworthy of a son.

    According to his proposal, with the exception of his part-time job as the General Counselor of the Touring Envoys of the three eastern provinces, the general counselors of the Provincial Governor-General's Office are all appointed by civilian officials. Therefore, Ding Chao, the former Chief Counselor of the Heilongjiang Province Governor-General's Office, has been transferred to the military and replaced by Zhai.  Wenxuan took over.  This Zhai Wenxuan is the former governor of Heilongjiang Province who served for the shortest time.  Although his ability as a provincial governor is limited, he is still quite qualified as the chief of staff of the Military Governor's Office. After all, his previous position as director of the police department had some militaristic overtones - of course, this is Zhang Hanqing's evaluation.  After all, Zhai Wenxuan had been recommended by him. As a political "bole", continuing to let him use his residual enthusiasm in his new position would also have the effect of "selling horse bones", wouldn't it?

    Ding Chao will be promoted to division commander as expected.  Zhang Hanqing had reserved the position of general counselor for him not long ago, and he owed Zhang Hanqing's favor from then on.  Now that he has a better position and no one of his own has taken the position, appointing Ding Chao is not a sign of merit. Besides, he has sufficient qualifications.  Moreover, in order for Sun Liechen to secure his position as the Governor of the Black Province, he still had to be nominated for some important positions such as General Counselor and Secretary General of the Governor's Office.  His departure will be beneficial to both Zhang Hanqing and Sun Liechen;

    Yu Zhen is also an old employee, and she once paved the way for Zhang Hanqing with a wink, so Zhang Zuolin will definitely consider taking care of her;

    ?? Wu Jun has served Zhang Zuolin for so long, both before and after his promotion. He has deigned to be a division commander for a long time. After his promotion, he will definitely be given a quota to balance the feelings of his subordinates. I guess his father will be embarrassed too?  So no matter what, he will have a spot;

    The last one should be given to Sun Liechen.  As his father's staunch assistant, except for the First Division, the only remaining force in his army was the fully-organized Black Province Border Guards. It was not good for him to be as bare-bones as Bao Guiqing.

    So basically, Zhang Hanqing did not fight for the four newly appointed positions for new editors.

    The current fengxian system has formed a pattern in which Zhang Zuolin is the main leader, Wu Junsheng, Sun Liechen, Zhang Zuoxiang are supplemented, and Bao Guiqing is named.  The finances of the Northeast have reached their maximum manpower to support ten divisions. At this initial stage, Zhang Hanqing would not do anything so aggressive as to be militaristic.  Therefore, it is difficult to expand further.

    The food appearance should not be too ugly, and the interests of the father should also be taken into consideration.

    ¡°As for administration, his biggest administrative position in Northeast China is still general counselor.  The personnel who control each province are considered outstanding talents in the three eastern provinces, but there is still a gap between Zhang Hanqing's employment methods, because he only wants the People's Party to assume a leadership position.  At present, it seems that this is difficult to do.

    Fortunately, the land reform finally continued with his insistence.  After the bandit rebellion, Zhang Zuolin saw the huge role of land in maintaining stability, and already made great efforts to support Zhang Hanqing, forcing the bosses and a group of vested interests to transform.  Being mainly dependent on Zhang Zuolin, there were no surprises in this regard.

    It seems that there is little point in staying in the Northeast. In this chaotic world, there is still a large area that can be developed.  The Red Army still has a long march of 25,000 miles, and relying on this corner of the Northeast is not a good strategy.  After thinking for a long time, Zhang Hanqing believed that he needed to broaden his horizons and be able to be willing to let go - leaving the Northeast to his father and the others.

    Of course, letting go does not mean abandoning the achievements once, it just means that he has to put his energy into a broader world.  Every step in the future requires strong support from the Northeast. After all, looking at the entire country, there are few places that can play the role of the Northeast in the economy and industry.  Before further movements are determined, he needs to properly arrange the remaining personnel.  We must not only maintain the current development momentum, but also firmly control it in our own hands.  In this era, transportation is inconvenient and information is not smooth. It would be tragic if someone took over after you left.

    There is a more important one. As expected, Northeast China will eventually confront the Japanese head-to-head. This is determined by the aggressive nature of the Japanese government and has been proven by history.  If he bets his treasure here, if a big change occurs, he will lose all his money, although he has always believed that with him here, such an extreme situation will not happen.  However, to prepare for a rainy day, we also need to start anew and echo each other.

    Inadvertently, Zhang Hanqing's vision has been looking into the distance (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com)This is determined by the aggressive nature of the government and has been proven by history.  If he bets his treasure here, if a big change occurs, he will lose all his money, although he has always believed that with him here, such an extreme situation will not happen.  However, to prepare for a rainy day, we also need to start anew and echo each other.
