Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 22 The First Ammunition

() After Zhang Xiluan handed over the power of law and order, he suddenly became dispirited. The old man, who is over seventy years old, has already reached the age of having grandchildren, so why should he be angry here.The old man immediately sent a resignation telegram to Yuan Shikai in Beijing. This was the third time in a year that the old man had resigned.

Zhang Xiluan was disheartened, but Zhang Zuolin was in high spirits. He won such a temporary position as a public security assistant for Zhang Zuoxiang. Speaking of which, it would be overkill for a major general to take care of this.But everyone knows that Lao Zhang is not fighting for Zhang Zuoxiang, and the ultimate executor of this power is Zhang Tinglan.

During this period of time, Zhang Tinglan helped Lao Zhang make suggestions. Seeing that the strength of the 27th Division is getting stronger and stronger, Lao Zhang has to thank the heroes, so Zhang Zuoxiang is given the title, and all the specific affairs are handed over to Zhang Tinglan. to his experience.

Any father would like to see his son's success. Zhang Zuoxiang was very proud of his son's emergence in the 27th Division. They sworn brothers with a total of eight people. The second generation is now in their teens and twenties. It seems that among these juniors, his son was the first to show amazing abilities, how could Zhang Zuoxiang be unhappy.

But Zhang Zuoxiang is also a smart person, and he can't just be happy about everything. As the saying goes, he has no hair on his mouth, and he can't do things well, so he has to mention his son.

"Ting Lan, how do you plan to rectify Fengtian's law and order? If you have any ideas, talk to Dad."

"Father, don't you let me take care of this? I won't get involved."

"Don't think about it, all these troubles are caused by you kid, you have to take care of it for me, or I will take care of you!" Zhang Zuoxiang waved the big cigarette pouch in his palm.

Zhang Tinglan thought for a while and said: "Father, in fact, I really want to take advantage of the opportunity of rectifying law and order to restore peace to Fengtian City. Without a stable environment, commerce will not develop, let alone economic construction. I have summed it up. There are five kinds of cancers of law and order, which are subordinate officials, gangsters, rogues, clansmen, and soldiers, if these five cancers are not eliminated, there will be no peace in Fengtian."

The so-called subordinate officials are those low-level officials. Most of them are inherited from the former Qing Dynasty. These people don’t understand the min zhu republic at all. The vanguard of the common people.

It is easier to understand the gangsters. This is also a continuation from the Qing Dynasty. Zheng fu and the gangsters are two sides of the same thing. If the government is weak and unable to effectively manage the place, the power of the gangsters will skyrocket. This was the case during the entire Republic of China. Shanghai The Qinghong Gang tycoon can even stand against Zheng Fu.

As for Zongshe and Ronin, they are something unique to Fengtian. The Japanese covet this place, and the old and young of the Manchu Qing tried to split the country.

The most troublesome of these five tumors is the soldiers. To put it bluntly, they are the eight uncles of the 27th Division. It is well known that Lao Zhang started his business by relying on bandits. Can only do it yourself.

Therefore, soldiers in twos and threes often roam the streets. They blackmail merchants, set up checkpoints, collect protection fees, and even sell drugs. The subordinates of the 27th Division are all involved in these things, so the reputation of the 27th Division is not good, but this is almost the same The common problem of soldiers of the era is difficult to eliminate.

The five points summarized by Zhang Tinglan hit the nail on the head. Zhang Zuoxiang knew very clearly that there was no mistake at all, but he knew that seeing it clearly did not mean that it could be solved.

"Ting Lan, what you said is not wrong, but some of these five cancers cannot be touched, do you know?"

"Father, are you talking about soldiers?"

"That's right, I'm ashamed to say it. When I first joined Fengtian, I was very strict with my subordinates. Anyone who violated military discipline would be severely punished. But after a period of time, the army's income is insufficient, and these old brothers cannot be starved." Then, I just opened one eye and closed one eye."

Zhang Zuoxiang is indeed a kind person, and he is not afraid of embarrassing his son, so he confessed the whole issue.

"Comparatively speaking, the discipline of my artillery regiment is pretty good. Tang Yulin's 53rd brigade is the most serious problem, and a large number of his soldiers are involved in the opium trade. Although it is disgusting, the profits are indeed huge. We leaders If the soldier can't make the life of the soldiers under him better, who will listen to you!"

Zhang Tinglan is very clear that what the father said is from the bottom of his heart. In fact, the large-scale rectification of discipline in the Feng Dynasty began when Wang Yongjiang came to power. Both also advocate the dismissal of Wang Yongjiang, which is also one of the few conflicts between Zhang Zuoxiang and Zhang Zuolin.

The reason is that Wang Yongjiang rectified Fengtian's law and order and rectified the misbehaving soldiers. This was undoubtedly cutting the flesh of these bandit leaders, so everyone opposed it.

"Father, I know what you mean. The main direction of this rectification is to focus on the ronin, the clan and the gangsters. I can't mess with the soldiers. But I also want to say that the army is the army, and there must be strict discipline." Discipline, without discipline, there is no fighting power at all, the seventh uncle is also a man with great ambitions, he will rectify his subordinates sooner or later, this is also the general trend, this is an inevitable step if we want the 27th Division to become truly strong."

Zhang Zuoxiang nodded slightly, but there was also a hint of embarrassment on his face: "It's easier said than done, it really hurts me to cut my own flesh!" Zhang Zuoxiang smiled wryly: "Ting Lan, do you look down on Dad? "

"Father, what are you always talking about? Is there anyone in this world who is closer than father and son! After I rectified the law and order this time, I immediately set up the framework of the North Market with Sihai Food as the center, and I will stay Pay enough shares to let all the artillery regiments live a comfortable life, but with this income, if they do evil again, they will not be forgiven."

Zhang Zuoxiang's eyes suddenly lit up. His son really is a scheming person. Taking this into consideration, Zhang Zuoxiang was completely relieved: "Ting Lan, don't worry, these bastards are full of food and drink. If they dare to be dishonest, they will seek death." , and I won't be polite."

Zhang Tinglan and his father had almost communicated, and another [-] elite soldiers were drawn from the artillery regiment, and they were ready to show their strengths. At this time, the Jew Fred sent another good news, a batch of Russian firearms was about to pass Fengtian, he made Zhang Tinglan get ready.

arms!Hearing these two words, Zhang Tinglan was very excited. Right now, the development of the 27th Division is restricted by arms. As long as this shortcoming is made up, the future of Fengjun will be bright.

Both Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zuoxiang were also notified, and they were also overjoyed. Zhang Zuolin selected two hundred of the most reliable soldiers, and they quietly arrived at Wenguantun Station, where Fred was already waiting.

"Zhang, this time there are a total of 20 water rifles and [-] bullets. You can keep them all!"

"Mr. Fred, you can always bring us good news, and you have brought all the goods you asked us to prepare." While talking, a large group of carriages appeared outside the station. These carriages were filled with soju , Kanto sorghum liquor.

Fred also opened a jar of wine enthusiastically. A strong aroma pierced his nostrils. After taking a sip, he felt as if his throat and stomach were on fire, which was indescribably comfortable. It was definitely a first-class high-alcohol liquor. Fred seemed to have seen the liquor turned into a lot of banknotes, so he stuck out his thumb.

"Zhang, such a good wine will definitely drive those drunkards crazy, no matter how much they have, they can be easily sold."

Fred was extremely satisfied with the wine, while Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zuoxiang were staring at the water rifle unloaded from the wagon at this time, and there was a kind of fanaticism in their eyes.
