young marshal spring and autumn

In view of the situation that the Fengjun has 21 army "divisions" of more than 80 people, as well as the superior navy and air force, Wu Peifu carried out a large increase in troops at the end of the year in order to reduce the military gap with the Fengjun, and four of them The mixed brigade was expanded into 4 divisions, with generals Peng Shouxin, Dong Zhengguo, Wang Weicheng, and Wang Huaiqing as division commanders.In addition, two new divisions were added, and the force was suddenly expanded to 4 divisions with more than 2 people, not including the direct second governors of Shandong and Jiangsu.His wishful thinking is that the direct lineage will form a group in the north, control the two railways, and be a strong enemy no matter whether they go south or north.Fortunately, Henan and Hebei are both populous provinces, so the number of soldiers is not a problem.Although the Feng army and the people's army are large in number, there are so many provinces to be stationed and scattered in various places, it is difficult to form a local superior force in a short period of time.

The problem is that Wu Peifu's military salary mainly depends on the operating income of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway.When the People's Army took control of Wuhan, part of his road money income was controlled by the People's Army, and without British and American foreign aid, he couldn't make ends meet.With the addition of troops, the financial aspect will become more and more tight, and it is inevitable to do some things such as land grabbing and forced tax collection.In Shandong, because the Tian Zhongyu government pressed for money, the people who had no means of living turned into bandits one after another, which made the already rampant banditry even more eye-catching.The situation was chaotic, and many bandits also took advantage of the fire to loot and occupy the mountain as king. Among them, Sun Meiyao, the leader of the Shandong bandit, occupied the Lincheng area of ​​Shandong and became the local emperor.

Yan Xingguo is the person in charge of the "Fenghuai Bureau" in Shandong.Now the "Fengqing Bureau" has spread all over the country. Zhang Hanqing also believes that in troubled times, spy agencies like "Military Command" and "Central Command" can complete many projects that cannot be started on the scene, and the annual cost of intelligence is as high as 500. Ten thousand yuan, which was specially approved by Zhang's father and son, is enough to support a standard army division of Fengjun. The "Fengqing Bureau" did not live up to its high expectations and completed one important task after another.

Zhang Hanqing, who was far away in Tianjin, secretly sent someone to arrange an important matter for Yan Xingguo. Through the all-pervasive "Fengqing Bureau" eyeliner, he contacted Sun Meiyao, a bandit active in Lincheng, Shandong.

Although Sun Meiyao is a bandit, she has also heard the name of young commander Zhang Hanqing.However, because Shandong is not under the control of the Feng faction, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and because of the idea of ​​antagonism between officials and bandits, they are strongly alert to Yan Xingguo's arrival.He arranged for his subordinates to hold a large-scale Hongmen banquet, and invited Yan Xingguo to the banquet with knives and guns.

Yan Xingguo has seen many storms, so how could he care about such intimidation.He calmly walked through the formation of swords, approached Sun Meiyao's seat, and said with a smile, "I've heard about the name of Emperor Lincheng for a long time, so it turns out that meeting is not as good as being famous---this is how Chief Sun treats guests?"

Sun Meiyao didn't feel angry or angry, and said with a smile: "Brother Yan is a member of the officialdom, brother is just living on the edge of a knife, so we have to be careful. It can be said that we don't know each other, what's the matter, Sun is powerful However, Brother Yan has a rich background, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you much."

Yan Xingguo said: "Brother came this time, just to give the first oral order. The content is very simple, I want to ask brother to help us arrest a few people."

Sun Meiyao laughed and said, "What am I supposed to do, isn't it just a few people? I think we kidnapped the son of the county magistrate of Lincheng back then. There is nothing I can't catch in the boundary of Lincheng!"

Yan Xingguo rolled his eyes and said, "Brothers are arresting different people this time, so I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Sun Meiyao thought about it for a while, then suddenly shook her head and said, "It turns out that my brother has a problem with the 7th Regiment. This is very difficult. Brother kills and steals money, but never fights with soldiers. Think about it, they have machine guns and cannons, and we stragglers How do you compare with them?" He knew that the 4th Division of the People's Army advancing into Jinan and the 5th Division of the Army under Tian Zhongyu were fighting openly and secretly for the control of Shandong, and thought that Yan Xingguo was ordered to use his hands to attack the garrison of the 7th Regiment in southern Shandong.Although he claims to be the emperor of Lincheng, the real emperor of modern times should also be afraid of soldiers and "bandits"!

Yan Xingguo laughed and said: "Does it take such a lot of trouble to fight this mere regiment?" He looked at Sun Meiyao quietly, and took out a bank note from his chest: "Brother guarantees that as long as Chief Sun agrees to What you say and do, brother, not only will not harm your power, but the 10 yuan ocean will be yours immediately." He whispered a few words to Sun Meiyao, who was so frightened that the face of the gangster who claims to kill without batting an eye turned pale.

Yan Xingguo smiled slightly and said: "There is no need to be afraid of this matter. Tian Zhongyu is just a teacher. If he really does it, our 4th division can make him all dumplings immediately. What's more, after things are done, many things are not his fault." You can cover the sky with one hand!"

In the 12th year of the Republic of China, which was the Dragon Boat Festival in 1923, Sun Meiyao's subordinates stopped a passenger train on the Jinpu Line, took hundreds of passengers as hostages, and wanted to take the opportunity to extort huge sums of money. This is the famous "Lincheng Carjacking" in modern Chinese history. case".On October 1923, 10, under strong diplomatic pressure from ministers from various countries, Tian Zhongyu was forced to take the blame and resign.However, this incident was an accident in the previous life, but under Zhang Hanqing's hands, it became inevitable.

Since there were many foreigners (journalists and tourists) among the passengers, Jin Yunpeng's government was afraid of causing diplomatic troubles, so they hurriedly sent Tian Zhongyu to negotiate.After arduous mediation, Tian Zhongyu first reached an agreement with the hijackers to allow the hostages to communicate with their families, and set up a temporary communication agency between Zaozhuang, Shandong and Baodugu, and then tried to reach an agreement to release the hostages conditionally .

Sun Meiyao deliberately delayed according to Yan Xingguo's confession, which made Tian Zhongyu almost collapse under the joint pressure of the ministers of various countries in China.Cao Kun and Wu Peifu, the elders of the Zhili lineage, were also constantly questioned by the officials of the Feng lineage and strongly pressured by public opinion from all walks of life. The shame of this made the Beiyang government lose all face.

Although this incident ended peacefully, Feng Fie didn't want it to end casually.Zhang Hanqing decisively took this matter to the knife, and he made a big fuss about it. First, he criticized Tian Zhongyu for his administrative inaction as a provincial governor, and he should bear important responsibility for the carjacking case; .Based on this, a massive land-removal campaign was launched, and the firepower was gradually transferred to Cao and Wu.

Under the pressure of all parties, especially Wu Peifu privately asked him to "top the tank" in order to achieve the timing of losing the car and keeping the handsome man, Tian Zhongyu really couldn't resist, so he had to resign in desperation, and went to live in Tianjin and Dalian, and took care of his privately built "Hebei Province Tian's Private Middle School" went.

However, Tian Zhongyu is not good at being an official, but he has made a lot of efforts in education, and he has made a lot of achievements and ideas, which is comparable to Zhang Hanqing.This "Hebei Province Tian's Private Middle School" was established in Shanhaiguan four years ago with huge sums of money in accordance with the wishes of his two-generation widowed grandmother, Sun, and mother, Yan, during his tenure as governor and governor of Shandong.

In order to solve the source of school building and school-running funds, Tian Zhongyu once invested in the purchase of more than 14500 mu of school land, received 45000 square miles of barren hills, and began to afforestation in barren hills, using the annual land rent income as the main source of school running.At that time, Tian Zhongyu himself served as the school manager of Tian's Middle School.The campus is adjacent to the Great Wall in the east and bounded by the North City Wall of Shanhaiguan in the north. It covers an area of ​​3500 square meters and a building area of ​​about [-] square meters.This is the shining point in Tanaka Yu's life as an old warlord, and it is worthy of gratitude and writing for future generations.

If it weren't for the mess of things to do, Zhang Hanqing really wanted to present him with a big certificate. A warlord can not misappropriate the limited funds to make guns or spend them on wine. From this point of view , being an "excellent educator" or something is definitely competent.
