    With the overall situation settled, Zhang Hanqing was in a good mood. Surrounded by his guards, he took a rare look at the city of Beijing again.

    I revisited my old place.  Four years ago, he was just a young boy who was a hostage. Four years later, he was already a prince, a general of the country who exercised power on behalf of the clan, and a veritable young marshal.

    In four years, things have changed and people have changed.  A group of people he knew, passed away, collected mountains, fled into exile, retired to seclusion, and remained silent.  The Feng family has legitimately gained a large sphere of influence, and it urgently needs a large number of talents from all walks of life to take charge of the country for it.

    Cai E passed away, and the house he bought in the capital was covered with dust, but the memory of him is still vivid in his mind.  Therefore, Zhang Hanqing arranged for people to collect some calligraphy, deeds, messages, etc. left by Cai E, and built the "General Cai Memorial Hall" in his old residence for people to pay tribute to his historical achievements.

    Duan Qirui is the largest warlord in the Anhui clique, but he was able to seize the opportunity and resolutely put down military power, which reduced the country's losses. From this point of view, he has merits and demerits.  After the Anhui clique was defeated, unlike others who either went into exile or ran away from the concession, he stayed at home.  But he was not willing to wait for death, so he sent his son Duan Hongye, Zhang Hanqing's ally, to "visit" him.

    Zhang Hanqing met Duan Hongye politely and gave him a dose of reassurance: "Duan Shibo's merits outweigh his faults. I will ensure that the new government will not pursue his charges."

    Once upon a time, Duan Hongye, as a favored son of heaven, did not pay attention to Zhang Hanqing as a proton, but he never imagined that in just a few years, the Duan family would need to be protected by the other party. It was really a twist of fate.  It was at this time that he began to admire his father's ability to judge people, and therefore he felt ashamed: "Brother, he is not someone who has lived under others for a long time. He and I are no longer the same person."

    Originally, I wanted to visit Zhu Qiqian¡¯s home in person, where the beautiful figure of Miss Zhu San was there when he first fell in love.  Over the past few years, Zhu Songjun's shadow has gradually faded in the back of his mind, but as an old friend, he still hopes that she will live well.  I heard reports that Mr. Gui decided to retire from politics after serving as the general representative of the North at the North-South Peace Conference because the negotiations broke down. Now he is focusing on being the president of his "Hainan Charity Association" in Beidaihe.  Being able to survive repeated major changes and being praised by all parties, Zhang Hanqing would not easily let his valuable political experience go to waste. He had decided to see him again when he returned to Shenyang.

    There is another person that he has been thinking about for a long time, which is another purpose of his trip to Beijing. He is Jiang Baili.

    In Zhang Hanqing¡¯s memory, in the early Republic of China, the only people with strategic vision in the military were the so-called "Three Heroes of Beiyang".  Now that Cai E has passed away and Zhang Xiaozhun has returned to Hunan, the only one who can be found in Beijing is Jiang Fangzhen (zi Baili).  This recognized No. 1 military theorist during the Republic of China was either brilliant or perseverant: his "Zhejiang Tide", his outsmarting Mussolini, his suicide while serving as the principal of the Baoding Military Academy, his Japan  His wife, Ms. Zuomei, his son-in-law Qian Xuesen, and his adjutant Jiang Weiguo are all legendary.

    Throughout his life, he wrote many papers that were like "prophecies", which were often fulfilled afterwards.  For example, Jiang Baili's "Study on the Japanese, a Foreigner" and "Basic Concepts of the War of Resistance" made predictions about the War of Resistance Against Japan, which are basically consistent with the facts, which shows the high level of his strategy.

    ??When it comes to General Jiang Fangzhen (Jiang Baili, also known as Fang Zhen) among the older generation in Japan, he is even more famous than in China.  The Japanese remember his "On National Defense" and his anti-Japanese strategic theory. After eight years of bloody battles, looking at General Jiang Baili's theory of the anti-Japanese war, the Japanese army seemed to be following the general's command and advancing honestly from east to west to Hunan.  , and then fell into China's quagmire-like protracted war, unable to extricate itself until it was defeated.

    He is also an extremely embarrassing figure in the history of the Japanese Army.  The scene when he graduated and won the award is quite legendary, because the Japanese Army Military Academy announced that the graduates were ranked from front to back, and the first name read was "Jiang Fangzhen."

    At that time, there were more than 300 Japanese graduates of the ninth batch of infantry courses and four Chinese students.  Just like that, the first place was taken by the Chinese student Jiang Fangzhen, that is, Jiang Baili. Of course, the sword given by the emperor also belonged to China.  The Japanese Military Academy felt that it was unbearable to lose face. Unexpectedly, it was announced that the second place was still Chinese. This second place was Cai E, the romantic general who later launched an army from Yunnan to rebel against Yuan.  The commotion this caused was even greater.  So the Japanese checked before announcing the third place. Unfortunately, the third place was still Chinese, named Zhang Xiaozhun!

    The graduation official of the Japanese Military Academy was Prince Fushiminomiya. In panic, he felt that he could not explain it to the emperor, so he temporarily replaced a Japanese student as the third place. He also thought that the first four Japanese students were not even half of them.??, another Japanese student was added as the fourth place, and Zhang Xiaozhun won the fifth place.

    Who are the two added people?  One was Sadao Araki, later Japanese Army General, Prime Minister, and a Class-A war criminal; the other was Jinzaburo Masaki, later the Governor of Taiwan, Army General, and the mastermind behind the 226 coup.  In addition, the Japanese graduates in this issue also include the following figures: Kuniaki Oiso (later Prime Minister), Shigeru Honjo (Commander of the Kwantung Army), Iwane Matsui (the culprit of the Nanjing Massacre), Nobuyuki Abe, etc., which can be called Japan  A generation of elites in the army were all defeated by Jiang Baili.

    Since then, the Japanese Army Military Academy has stipulated that Chinese students must be taught separately from Japanese students to avoid the same situation happening, which can be said to have greatly improved the ambition of the Chinese people.

    Of course, whether this is falsehood is open to question.  According to tradition, the top students (the top few) who graduate from Japan's military academy get silver pocket watches, and the top five graduates from mainland China are from the saber group. However, mainland universities must be recommended by the captain to study, and international students are not eligible (of course North Korea  Except, it was already a colony at that time).

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? off, anyway, this person is capable, there is no doubt.

    In 1906, Chiang returned to China and served as the general counselor of the Supervisory Training Office under Zhao Erxun. However, he was squeezed out by Zhang Zuolin and other old military figures. In the same year, he went to Europe to inspect military affairs as the battalion commander of the Seventh Army of the German Wehrmacht.  In Germany, his outstanding military talents were highly praised by Field Marshal Hindenburg, the veteran of the German military circles.  Returning to China in 1910, he was promoted by his classmate Liang Bi, who was a non-commissioned officer, and took up the post of commander of the Imperial Guards. Later, he was transferred to Zhao Erxun to resume his previous post.

    In the second half of 1912, Jiang Baili, then the principal of the Baoding Military Academy, committed suicide in front of all the students on the playground because he was strongly dissatisfied with the Beiyang warlord government's default in arrears and misappropriation of Army University's education funds. Fortunately, he was rescued by the students who woke up.  He came here, but from then on, he became disillusioned with the Beiyang government and resolutely left the military.  Later, she met and married the Japanese nurse Sato House. After the marriage, Sato House changed her name to Zuomei.  Their daughter, Jiang Ying, is a famous musician and the wife of Qian Xuesen, the father of China's missiles.

    Speaking of which, Zhang Hanqing had some connection with him. Without his praise, Zhang Hanqing would have been a little short of a success if he wanted to achieve such a great reputation in the capital.

    I heard that he had not been happy in the past few years. After Lao Yuan passed away, he had completely separated from the military. He accompanied Cai E to Japan for medical treatment and immediately arranged his funeral.  He returned to China in 1917 and served as an advisor to the Presidential Palace of Li Yuanhong. He began to write his first military treatises such as "Sun Tzu's New Interpretation" and "Military Common Sense". After publishing, he became a teaching assistant in military schools.  In the years after Li Yuanhong's downfall, he was free from official duties, writing books and essays, serving as editor of some magazines, organizing poetry societies, etc.

    After that, Jiang Baili's path changed, and he actually started to cultivate martial arts and cultivate literature.  From 1918 to 1919, he went to Europe with Liang Qichao for inspection. After returning to China, he chaired groups such as the "Book Club" and "Gongxue Society".  In 1920, he was elected as a member of the Zhejiang Provincial Parliament, participated in the drafting of the Zhejiang and Hunan provincial constitutions, and supported "federal autonomy."  He also edited the magazine "Reformation", whose influence was second only to "New Youth" edited by Chen Duxiu.  He was full of enthusiasm and knowledge, but he had no opportunity to stretch.  After the war between Anhui and Anhui, he still lived in Beijing.

    If he is allowed to develop on the road of literature, there is no guarantee that a literary great will not emerge. For example, the "History of the European Renaissance" he wrote soon became famous because he and Liang Qichao wrote the preface for each other, and it is still used today.  Work | Central Academy of Fine Arts¡¯ Western art history textbook.

    But there are not many literary people in China now, but one less Jiang Baili is a burden that the current era cannot bear.

    There is no need for Zhang Hanqing to worry too much. The "Intelligence Bureau" had already been ordered by him to closely monitor Jiang Baili's residence in Beijing and discovered that he was preparing to defect to Wu Peifu, waiting for an opportunity to attack Zhang Zuolin and avenge his past grudges.

    How could Zhang Hanqing miss such an outstanding talent?  As for pushing into the opponent's arms, anyone with a little knowledge will know that it is absolutely not possible.  When Qian Xuesen returned to China, the Americans believed that he was enough to withstand the strength of five divisions; in Zhang Hanqing's eyes, in a purely military sense, Jiang Baili was no less than Qian Xuesen.

    Two days ago, when the Anhui clique was defeated, Jiang Baili keenly realized that he had been spied on by unknown people.  When he was unwilling to pack up his important belongings and wanted to leave the dangerous area, he was stopped by a few strong men at the entrance of the alley.  However, although these people looked ferocious and had dicks on their waists, they were not disrespectful to me at all. The leader only said that he was ordered to keep him.

    At this moment, Jiang Baili was restless. He sensitively judged that his old enemy Zhang Zuolin had sent someone to claim his life again!

    During the Wuchang Uprising, Zhang Zuolin was at odds with himself, so he was forced to flee from the Northeast.  Zhang Zuolin sent people to chase him to the train.  Jiang was in emergency, so the staff on the train opened the restroom for him to use and locked it on the outside (originally, the train would not allow people to use the restroom before departure), so he was spared.  Unexpectedly, after many years, he still couldn't escape Zhang Zuolin's clutches, and Zhang Zuolin actually held a grudge like this!

    One night, Jiang Baili, who was restless, had already imagined the worst case scenario.  But what surprised him was that this time it was not a disaster but a blessing. Early the next morning, with a crisp "salute" outside the door, a familiar smile appeared on his face.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Zhang Zuolin actually holds a grudge like this!
