Fengxian Jiangshan

"Humble words, this frontier army designation was originally reserved for Xu Shuzheng's participating army, but now that we have defeated Xiao Xu, this designation has fallen to us. It's God's will." Sun Liechen said with a smile.

"Since the border guards are called, we must take care of all border affairs. From the northeast to Outer Mongolia, we must formulate a complete border defense system to guard the country's northern frontier."

Zhang Tinglan entered the role very quickly. With the name of the frontier guard, it was justifiable to do anything, and the timing was just right, Zhang Tinglan also wanted to show his hands and feet to completely stabilize the frontier.

As early as Zhang Zuolin was in Japan, Zhang Tinglan insisted on developing westward, wanting to take down Outer Mongolia, control the Northwest, use these areas as the strategic hinterland of the Feng army, and then turn around and compete with the Japanese.Sun Liechen is also very clear about this strategy, and now it's time to actually implement it.

But at this time, when Sun Liechen heard Zhang Tinglan's words, he seemed to be preparing to fight a big battle, and Sun Liechen's heart suddenly moved. The combat mission changed, and the army's establishment also changed, and every change in the formation was a new wash. Brand, it seems that Fengjun's power structure is about to be adjusted again!

"Zhuoyan, now that you have the number of the border guards, you have to fill it up. How many troops are you going to fill up?"

"This time, the scope of Fengjun's defense has almost doubled. Just making small adjustments in the army is obviously not enough to meet the needs. I plan to expand the army, with a total of more than 20 people. In the future, Fengjun's system will be divided into three types." , One is the border guard force, the other is the border mobile force, and the other is the local garrison. The first two are directly under the management of the border defense army system, and the latter is under the command of the local military region.”

When Sun Liechen heard Zhang Tinglan's words, he immediately understood that this is the rhythm of a large-scale exchange of blood for all troops!In fact, he also expected that Zhang Zuolin's era has passed.Zhang Tinglan's era is about to begin, and major changes are inevitable. Now the conditions are ripe for all parties, and the metabolism has reached the final juncture.

"Zhuoyan, your father and I are sworn brothers. We have been through life and death for so many years, and now we are old, with injuries and illnesses all over our body. I have long wanted to take care of myself. Yu Ting died some time ago. The situation is getting better and better, Fengjun is thriving, and it's time for me to go home."

Sun Liechen is a sensible person, sometimes it is better to be driven away by others.It's better to leave by yourself.From a reckless bandit to a prince now.Sun Liechen's life can be regarded as a good one.If you retreat bravely and give way to the younger generations, you can still gain a good reputation, so why not do it!

Zhang Tinglan pondered for a while, and he was very happy that Sun Liechen was willing to leave.With Sun Liechen still alive, it would be troublesome to clean up the older generation.However, he didn't want to create an intolerant impression, so he said: "Sixth uncle, you will grow stronger when you grow old. Why rush to retire. If you feel that the current affairs are a bit complicated, I suggest that you continue to be the director of the reorganization committee. Take charge of the reorganization of the entire army!"

Reorganizing the army is a big deal, and being able to hand it over to Sun Liechen definitely shows how much he is valued. At the same time, he can be removed from the position of commanding the front line, even if he is relegated to the second line!

"Zhuoyan, since that's the case, it's a deal. I'll go and sort out the situation of Fengjun's various departments now." Sun Liechen readily accepted the task.

Of course, in order to fully reorganize the army, both Chahar and Suiyuan must be taken down. Only after these areas are truly controlled can the arrangements be made calmly.

"Commander-in-chief, congratulations to Gao Sheng!" Sun Anhu said with a smile.

When assisting Chengde, Zhang Tinglan only dispatched more than 3 horses, which was enough to rescue Chengde. If he wanted to continue to expand the results of the battle, he was a bit sleepy.Therefore, an order to deploy troops was sent to Fengtian, and Sun Anhu personally led three brigades of the former Northeast Frontier Army to assist Zhang Tinglan.

These three brigades are the elite forces of the frontier defense army, with a large number of staff, and the weapons and equipment are also second to none in the Feng army. The combat effectiveness of a brigade is almost comparable to that of a division.After the arrival of these three brigades, Zhang Tinglan's troops became more abundant, and he had the capital for the next move.

"As the tide rises, all boats rise. In the past, the Northeast Frontier Defense Force was attached to the Fengjun Army. The largest establishment was at the brigade level. It doesn't sound good to say, and everyone has been wronged. Now that the central government has authorized it, it has officially obtained the designation of the Frontier Defense Army. It is necessary to reorganize in a unified manner, and at least eight formal border defense divisions must be formed!"

Hearing this, Sun Anhu's eyes lit up immediately. If the eight divisions were fully equipped, they would have a strength of over a hundred thousand. The young man in front of him was really generous in his work, and he would have a future with such a leader.

"Commander-in-Chief, who are you going to appoint as the commander of the First Frontier Division? If there is no one, I will recommend myself!"

"How can there be no one!" Jiang Dengxuan said with a smile from the side: "Old Sun, you are indeed old, and it should belong to you, but this is an army, and it depends on the military exploits. Who will the first division be handed over to?"

"Well, let's compare and see who is suitable to be the commander of the first division!"

"Stop arguing. Since everyone is staring at it, let's show some prizes." Zhang Tinglan also showed a smile on his face when he saw his subordinates fighting for the fight. At least it shows that they are still very active. What the army needs is This enthusiasm.

"Whoever can enter Zhangjiakou first and take down both Xu Shuzheng and Chahar and Tian Zhongyu will be the commander of the first division!"

Zhang Tinglan is betting on Xiao Xu here, and Xu Shuzheng, who led the defeated army and fled to Zhangjiakou, is even more on pins and needles.Since Rehe escaped, Xiao Xu ran all the way, fearing that Feng Jun would catch up with him.

After finally running to Zhangjiakou, I counted the number of people in my hand, and found that there were more than 300 people left. Xiao Xu wanted to cry at that time.When attacking Rehe, they were aggressive, with more than 3 troops, invincible, but now there are only so few troops left, the whole army has lost all chances, and what face is there to meet Duan Qirui!

Thinking of the old Duan, Xu Shuzheng became even more anxious. His men were Duan Qirui's subordinates, and now they were all lost. There is no chance for the old Duan to make money.In the era of warlords where the weak preyed on the strong, Duan Qirui was in a dangerous situation without the backbone of the army.

"Tian Dutong, do you have any information now, how is the Prime Minister?"

Tian Zhongyu's face was a little pale, and he hesitated when he spoke. At that time, Xu Shuzheng's eyes widened, and he said loudly: "When is Tian Dutong, hurry up and tell the truth, even if the sky falls, We have to figure out a way to deal with it together!"

"Supervisor, to tell the truth, not long ago, Feng Guozhang, Cao Kun and others jointly sent a telegram to ask Prime Minister Duan to step down, and to investigate and supervise you."

"Investigate me? Why, Xu has never done anything wrong in his life. Unfortunately, God will not bless me when he loses the battle. As for other crimes that he wants to add, Xu will never admit it!"

"Supervisor, have you forgotten about Lu Jianzhang?"

When Tian Zhongyu mentioned Lu Jianzhang, Xu Shuzheng's face changed drastically.Lu Jianzhang is also a veteran general of Beiyang, and served as the governor of Shaanxi.Due to excessive search and public grievances, a mutiny was aroused, and Lu Jianzhang was expelled from Shaanxi.After leaving Shaanxi, Lu Jianzhang was not reconciled to failure, and thought about making a comeback, and had contact with Zhang Xun again.

Later, Lu Jianzhang took the initiative to contact the Beiyang generals, wanting to jointly oppose Duan Qirui's policy, but Xiao Xu caught him and shot Lu Jianzhang to death.In the struggle of the various factions in Beiyang, many people lost power, but the big guys still abide by the bottom line, and no one is put to death.

Especially the elders who have come down, everyone treats them as preferentially as possible and gives them a way to survive. After all, they used to work together and have a good relationship.Only Xu Shuzheng went too far and beat Lu Jianzhang to death, which caused a very bad influence in Beiyang.

Although Lu Jianzhang is dead, he still has a nephew, Feng Yuxiang, the defected general. He and Feng Yuxiang are not only relatives, but also Lu Jianzhang promoted Feng Yuxiang to the army, allowing him to stand out and make a difference.

Feng Yuxiang was very grateful to Lao Lu, and it was precisely because of this that Feng Yuxiang turned to Zhang Zuolin and acted as an internal response to overthrow Lao Duan and Xiao Xu.As a result, the success failed, and Lao Zhang died at the hands of the Japanese. Feng Yuxiang could only escape with his cronies in makeup. He ran all the way to Nanjing, and took refuge in an important person in his immediate family, Li Chun, the governor of Jiangsu, and managed to save his life.

After enduring it for a few months, the general situation of the world changed instantly. Xu Shuzheng suffered a disastrous defeat outside the customs, the Anhui Clan was completely overthrown, and Feng Yuxiang's identity also changed suddenly.In particular, he had contact with Zhang Zuolin. Although he failed, it was still a love affair. Feng Yuxiang used this advantage to file a lawsuit against Beiyang, demanding that Xu Shuzheng be arrested and avenged for Lu Jianzhang.

Tian Zhongyu's words evoked this secret, which made Xu Shuzheng even more restless. He didn't even dare to flee back to Beijing and Tianjin because he was afraid of being caught, and being trapped in Zhangjiakou was not a long-term solution. Xiao Xu almost turned his head gray overnight.

"Supervisor, something bad happened, Prime Minister Duan was kicked out, and Zhang Tinglan became a tour envoy to Mengjiang!"

Tian Zhongyu took a power-up and sent it to Xu Shuzheng. When he saw it, his eyes blurred and he almost fell to the ground. The old Duan was completely down, and he had no backing. Zhang Tinglan's position was not good for him. information.

"Tian Dutong, Zhang Tinglan is ruthless. Since he has become a patrol envoy to Mengjiang, he will never let Chahar go. What should he do? Do you have any ideas?"

"Supervisor, although this Chahar is barren, it is at least the leader of one party. I really don't want to let it out. It's just that the army is powerful and I have few soldiers. I am not an opponent."

"Tian Dutong, if you are willing, Xu is willing to help you command the troops and fight to the end with Fengjun. Maybe there is still a chance."

Xu Shuzheng resisted the pursuit order, but couldn't escape, so he could only fight to the death.At this moment, someone under his command suddenly sent a telegram from Zhang Tinglan.

"Supervisor, they want to go to Suiyuan via Chahar, let us make way."

"Hmph, this is a sham plan to destroy the country, and you must not be fooled!" (To be continued...)
