"Oh? What do you say?" Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang sat up and asked quickly. Zhang Xueliang turned back and glanced at Han Baihang, but said nothing.
Han Baihang replied: "According to my guess, Feng Yuxiang's hatred for Xu Shuzheng is probably not just a day or two, but the hatred was already forged in the sixth year of the Republic of China, that is, 1918 in the Gregorian calendar. No.
I wonder if the commander-in-chief still remembers that Lu Jianzhang was extorting excessive taxes, and Xu Shuzheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he finally killed Lu Jianzhang. But don't forget that Lu Jianzhang also had a subordinate who valued his words, and even his own daughter married him. This person is
Feng Yuxiang. After so many years, Feng Yuxiang finally found an opportunity for revenge, how could he not take action?"
Zhang Zuolin, Marshal Zhang and Marshal Zhang Xueliang sat aside and listened quietly, Marshal Zhang nodded from time to time.
Han Baihang continued: "But this is only a superficial reason. As I said just now, Feng Yuxiang is not interested in drinking. Since Xu Shuzheng took refuge in Duan Qirui, the strength of the Anhui clique has continued to strengthen. It is no exaggeration to say that
Xu Shuzheng played a great role in the rise of the Wan Clan. Xu Shuzheng was undoubtedly the most capable general in the Wan Clan. However, Feng Yuxiang did not kill him sooner or later, but he killed him at this time. This shows that Feng Yuxiang was not only targeting Xu Shuzheng, but also more
It could be Duan Qirui or even the whole of Peiping. This is what a drunkard does not care about drinking!"
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang were shocked. They didn't expect that Feng Yuxiang had such an intention. If he really let him realize it, the consequences would be disastrous. What he and Zhang Zuolin didn't expect, and what he didn't even notice, was that Han Baihang actually said it while he was recovering from illness.
I can tell that this is indeed the case when I heard what Han Baihang said. Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down their mood, and continued to ask: "Tell me, Baihang, what he plans to do?"
Han Baihang felt that he might have said too much, so he smiled sheepishly and said: "Since the commander asked, I will tell the truth. However, this is also a wild guess on my part, and there is no real evidence."
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang quickly waved their hands and said: "A general should have such military intuition, but it doesn't matter, and what you say is very likely to be correct."
Han Baihang said: "According to the news I heard, it is said that Xu Shuzheng came back from Europe this time and brought back a lot of gold. However, after he was assassinated, all the gold disappeared. I don't know if there is such a thing.
Return to the matter?"
Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Xueliang looked at each other. No one of them informed about this matter, and Han Baihang didn't go to check. How did he know? They both said in unison: "Yes!"
Han Baihang said: "Commander, Young Marshal, Feng Yuxiang has recruited powerful troops in the northwest. He is not short of people, but he is short of money. Moreover, the northwest is barren, and Feng Yuxiang cannot be willing to stay there all his life.
If he doesn't want to stay in the northwest, he has only two ways. One is to enter the three northeastern provinces, but this is the commander-in-chief's territory, and he doesn't have the courage yet. The other is to enter Peiping. Judging from the current signs,
This is a good plan that kills two birds with one stone. Not only did he get rid of Xu Shuzheng, Duan Qirui's right-hand man in Beijing, but he also got gold and military pay. Now, he is probably going to march into Peking!"
Zhang Zuolin, Marshal Zhang and Zhang Xueliang were all shocked when they heard this. If this was the case, wouldn't it be another war? If you think about it carefully, Feng Yuxiang's army suffered no losses at all during the Zhili-Fengtian War, and this guy also
He took the opportunity to recruit a lot of troops. Now that a year or two have passed, his strength has probably grown even stronger. This time, he probably wanted to continue the rebellion caused by Guo Songling and deal a fatal blow to the Feng clan. However,
Unexpectedly, Han Baihang came out to clean up the situation, and his plan failed. Now he changed his goal and started targeting Peiping.
Judging from the current strength comparison, Peiping's Duan Qirui is probably no longer a match for the fierce Feng Yuxiang. Once the two sides fight, it's hard to say who will fall in Peiping's hands. Xu Shuzheng was there before, maybe he can still
Resist Feng Yuxiang, but now Xu Shuzheng has also been assassinated, and the balance of victory has tipped to Feng Yuxiang.
Zhang Zuolin really didn't expect that Feng Yuxiang, who was only assigned to play the front line in the Zhili-Fengtian War, was no longer what he used to be. He already had the strength to compete with him. If he was allowed to occupy Peiping, then the second Zhili-Fengtian War would be impossible.
Didn’t all the fruits of Feng Zhan’s victory go to waste?
This is definitely not possible! xdw8
What should we do? This is an urgent problem that the Fengtian Department urgently needs to solve. Zhang Zuolin, Marshal Zhang and Marshal Zhang Xueliang all looked at Han Baihang in unison. Although they already had a general strategy in their minds, they still wanted to hear Han Baihang say it, so that they could understand the situation in their hearts.
Be confident.
Han Baihang saw that everyone was looking at him and said: "Commander, Young Marshal, I will not speak nonsense, and you two will not listen to it. If it is nonsense, you two just don't laugh at me!"
Zhang Xueliang said: "Go on, why are you so modest?"
Han Baihang knew that the young marshal regarded him as one of his own, so he laughed and continued: "I think we have to march into the pass at this time! If Feng Yuxiang really wants to march into Peiping, then we will keep him out of Peiping.
! In this way, there is no need to fight on their own territory. The two of them also know Feng Yuxiang's virtues. The last time he marched into Peiping, the entire Peiping was almost emptied by him. If he enters Peiping again this time, the city of Peiping can still survive.
Why don’t you tell me why you can’t stay?”
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. If he wanted to organize Feng Yuxiang, he had to enter the border. Wait until Feng Yuxiang broke into Peiping before he took action. It would be better to stop him outside Peiping and do that.
Without saying a word, Zhang Zuolin immediately called the guards and sent a telegram to all the armies of the Fengtian Department. He transferred the troops back to Fengtian to reorganize and prepare to enter the pass at any time. After the order was issued, the entire Fengtian Department moved into action. However, only one person did not take action.
, he did not agree with the decision of Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang. This person was Yang Yuting, Chief of Staff of the Fengjun Army.
Generally speaking, Fengjun's combat operations are planned through Yang Yuting's staff, but this time, it was actually an order issued directly by the commander-in-chief, and I heard that it was agreed upon with the young boys Han Baihang and Liuzi. Yes.
, he also admitted that Han Baihang did contribute in this battle of Fengtian, but he was just a warrior, and he knew nothing about formulating strategies.
Besides, there are Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Liuzi, who are his juniors. Even the old commander respects him so much, but he just obeys his orders, which makes Yang Yuting very angry.
