That day, Zhang Zongchang happened to wake up early in the morning and opened the book and saw the sentence "If jade is not polished, it cannot be used", and he kept mumbling about it for a while.
He washed his face, put on his military uniform, and went out to inspect the army as usual. However, the sentence "If it is not polished, it will not become a weapon" lingered in his mind, but he did not know the exact meaning of this sentence.
This made him feel very uncomfortable, and he felt as if a cat had scratched him.
It happened that that day when he was walking outside the gate, the guard at the gate ran inside in a panic. The two of them bumped into each other at the corner of the gate.
When the soldier came to his senses, he looked up and saw that the man he had bumped into was Zhang Zongchang himself. He was so frightened that he did not dare to speak out. He stood there dumbfounded, waiting for the punishment of Zhang Zongchang and Governor Zhang.
Zhang Zongchang was not that squeamish, but this soldier was careless. He was thinking about a problem, and when he was hit like this, what he was thinking came out of his mouth.
The soldier was waiting to be punished when he saw Governor Zhang patting his wrinkled military uniform and saying angrily: "If a jade is not polished, it will become useless!"
When the soldier heard that Governor Zhang was talking about himself, he quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes! Yes!"
Zhang Zongchang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would be bumped into by this guy, and the words in his mind would come out smoothly. What surprised him even more was that the soldier who bumped into him seemed to know the meaning of these words. Zhang Zongchang was overjoyed and was not ashamed to ask.
His spirit showed at this time, he took two steps forward and asked: "Boy, do you know what this sentence means?"
When the soldier heard this, Governor Zhang didn't blame him. He had already put down half of the stone in his heart. Looking at Governor Zhang's expression, he didn't seem to be angry anymore. He quickly smiled and said, "I know, I know, the villain is really good."
It’s impossible to work it out’!”
Zhang Zongchang was eager to learn and said quickly: "Oh, I didn't expect that I still have such talents under my command. Then tell me, what does 'jade cannot be polished but cannot be used' mean?"
In fact, the soldier was also illiterate, but he misunderstood Zhang Zongchang and Governor Zhang's words "It can't be used if it's not polished" as "It can't be used if it doesn't meet your needs". He thought it was Governor Zhang's words to criticize him. Since Governor Zhang asked
, he did not dare to neglect, and said quickly: "What the warlord is criticizing is that if you can't meet me today, you won't be angry!"
When Zhang Zongchang heard this, he felt that it made sense, and it also meant the same thing when he read it, so he laughed loudly, patted the soldier on the shoulder and said: "You are really a damn talent, it seems that there is also a crouching tiger in my team."
Hidden Dragon! Why are you assigned to be a guard here? Isn’t this overqualification? In this way, I will give you a battalion commander and you can take up the post!"
When the soldier heard this, he was really happy. He didn't expect that he would become the battalion commander with just one sentence, so he quickly gave Zhang Zongchang a military salute and trotted off to take office.
This incident has already spread throughout Fengjun Zhihong. Every time someone mentions Zhang Zongchang, everyone makes fun of him. It's really lively.
Han Baihang thought of these things, and Zhang Zongchang followed Marshal Zhang's order and marched into Shandong to become the governor of Shandong.
These are not big problems. There is no big problem in entrusting the position of Shandong Governor to Zhang Zongchang. Zhang Zongchang is originally from Shandong and is very familiar with the local area. He should be appointed as the Shandong Governor. Although his educational level is not high,
But he himself is considered powerful, he made a lot of money in this war between Zhizhi and Fengtian, and he takes orders from the Fengtian clique, so it is perfect.
But the problem is that Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang are not satisfied with Shandong. His goal is Shanghai, Jiangnan, and the entire Republic of China. Therefore, when Zhang Zongchang became the governor of Shandong, the situation in Shandong had stabilized, but later
, he then issued an order, ordering Zhang Zongchang to command 100,000 troops and march directly towards Jiangsu.
Although Qi Xieyuan lost most of his strength in the last war between Zhili and Anhui, he was the governor of a province after all. As the governor of Jiangsu Province, how could Qi Xieyuan, the general of the Zhili, watch Zhang Zongchang's 100,000 troops run rampant in the Jiangsu area under his jurisdiction?
.
But the current Qi Xieyuan is no longer the Qi Xieyuan of the past. Although he can't stand the ambition and tyranny of Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zongchang, he is worthy of being the governor of a province, and the troops he has now are far from enough to compete with Zhang Zongchang's 100,000 troops.
On a par with that, the situation was already very critical for him.
When Han Baihang received the order from Commander Zhang Zuolin, he naturally did not dare to neglect it. He led his team to travel lightly and tried to return to Fengtian as quickly as possible.
As for the materials seized by the troops on Jackdaw Mountain, except for some guns and ammunition left for the Jiamusi Guards, the rest of the weapons and equipment were taken away. There were also other materials and their own luggage, all of which were left to the local people in Jiamusi.
.
Since it can no longer be taken away, it is worthwhile to do some good deeds by yourself.
It only took one day and one night for Han Baihang to lead his team back to Fengtian. It was still the familiar place. After returning, Han Baihang did not bother to take a sip of water, nor did he bother to go back to his residence, nor did he bother to talk to him.
Zhang Xueliang said hello, and then hurriedly went to the Marshal's Mansion to see Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang.
Han Baihang dismounted at the Marshal's Mansion. The guard at the door knew that Han Baihang must be in an emergency and did not dare to neglect, so he immediately went in to report. After a while, the head of the guard regiment came out personally to lead him in.
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang were waiting in the living room, wearing long robes and mandarin jackets. There was a thick stack of documents on the table waiting to be signed.
Han Baihang walked in, and Marshal Zhang realized it was him. He quickly stood up and took Han Baihang's arm and said, "Baihang, I heard from my subordinates that you completely wiped out the bandits in Jiamusi this time.
!You have done a great job, I want to commend you and tell you what you want!"
Han Baihang smiled and said: "Commander, it was an order for me to go to Jiamusi to suppress the bandits. Furthermore, it was also to do some good deeds for the people. You don't have to take it to heart! As for the commendation, I will not refuse it. After all, I also want to reward my subordinates!"
After Zhang Zuolin heard Han Baihang's truth, he laughed twice and said: "You, you! You know why you are not popular with others, right?"
Han Baihang also laughed and said, "Maybe it's because I like to tell the truth! What a pity, no one always listens!"
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang were overjoyed and waved their hands to signal Han Baihang to sit down.
