Hearing Zhang Zuolin, Marshal Zhang and Marshal Zhang say this, Han Baihang said with confidence: "In my humble opinion, it should be natural for the two marshals to want to kill people like Feng Yuxiang, but judging from the current situation
, it seems we can’t do this yet!”
Wu Peifu looked at Han Baihang and nodded seriously. Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang said hurriedly: "Don't stop, keep talking!"
Han Baihang sat down slowly. This was a family banquet. There was no need to be too formal. He continued: "The two marshals still remember the purpose of our alliance? Is it to deal with Feng Yuxiang? Of course, this
There must be this reason, but it is definitely not the main one! The revolutionary strength in the south is much more difficult to deal with than Feng Yuxiang! Our strength is still strong enough now, and they don’t dare to do anything to us, but if we ever want to fight with Feng Yuxiang
If we fight to the death, they may be waiting for an opportunity to take action, and then we will be fighting on two fronts. This will be a great disadvantage to us!"
At this time, Zhang Xueliang saw that Han Baihang's words had already had the desired effect, and he quickly lost no time in saying: "Commander, Commander Yu, I also think what Baihang said is very reasonable. As for Feng Yuxiang's revenge, we are
We will definitely report him, but he is just a small player, and we should focus our main energy on preventing the revolutionary forces in the south!"
Zhang Xueliang has not spoken here for a long time. Coupled with his identity, he has said such words now, so Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Dashuai and Yushuai have to think carefully. Wu Peifu thought for a while and said seriously: "Six sons and
What Baihang said makes sense. It's not something that we both didn't expect. This is... Well, it's not that Feng Yuxiang is too irritating. If we don't eradicate it this time, I don't know when it will happen again.
What an opportunity!”
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang also sighed: "Yes, what a pity!"
When Han Baihang knew that the two commanders had changed their minds, he quickly said: "Commander, Commander Yu, as long as our strength becomes stronger day by day, why is Feng Yuxiang still afraid that there will be no chance to deal with it? But once we fall into a situation where we are attacked from both sides, then
But everything is hard to say!"
Isn't this the truth when the two heard it? After fighting for a lifetime, how could a little Feng Yuxiang be restrained? The two looked at each other, and Zhang Zuolin said: "Shuai Yu and I also think what you said
It makes sense, then just do as you say! There are some things that must be left to you young people!"
At this time, Han Baihang knew that he should give away this credit, so he glanced at Zhang Xueliang and said to the two marshals: "Two marshals, in fact, Han Qing has considered this matter more carefully.
I was just a helper. But Han Qing was afraid that Yu Shuai would cause misunderstanding. After all, Yu Shuai wanted to clean up Feng Yuxiang's family, so he prompted me to speak out. In the final analysis, this is Han Qing's credit!"
Wu Peifu glanced at Han Baihang, turned to Zhang Zuolin and praised Marshal Zhang: "They are both tiger fathers and no dog sons. They are indeed well-deserved. But in my opinion, Han Qing sees further than you, Lao Zhang.
From now on, the family business will have a successor!" As they spoke, the two laughed.
Zhang Zuolin clasped his fists and said to Wu Peifu: "Brother Wu, this is called the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead! The six sons still need your guidance and support!"
The banquet ended harmoniously in a peaceful atmosphere. It was this simple meal that determined the overall situation of this battle.
As for the sworn alliance between Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Marshal and Yu Marshal, and the alliance between the Zhifeng and Feng families, although the two marshals did not mention a word, Han Baihang tacitly understood that they were waiting for the outcome of this battle against Feng Yuxiang.
After the war ended, everything went smoothly.
Faced with Feng Yuxiang's refusal to retreat, Han Baihang must use his own methods to make him aware of this problem.
After asking for instructions, Han Baihang obtained the consent of Zhang Zuolin, Marshal Zhang and Marshal Wu Peifu, and ordered Zhang Xueliang to serve as the commander-in-chief of this combat mission, while Han Baihang continued to serve as the general staff. But the difference was that Han Baihang independently mobilized the direct army's personnel.
Rights. Originally, Commander-in-Chief Wu Peifu wanted to give this right to Zhang Xueliang. Firstly, this would indeed be conducive to the arrangement and execution of combat missions. Secondly, it would also be a way to express his sincerity towards the Zhili-Fengtian Alliance. However, Zhang Zuolin and Commander-in-Chief Zhang Siyou
I think, this right should be left to Han Baihang. The reason is self-evident.
Zhang Xueliang always "ignores the government affairs" and leaves all military matters to Han Baihang. He knows that he may not be as thoughtful as Han Baihang in this regard, so he doesn't bother. Han Baihang is under great pressure, but
This is also his opportunity. Since no one else will interfere in this war, he has the opportunity to implement his own plan.
If we use the New Year method, that is, the Gregorian calendar, today is exactly December 31st, and it is also timely to say that tomorrow will be what Europeans and Americans call "New Year". For these days, not only Han Baihang, but also
In the Republic of China, few people care about it, except those who have returned from overseas.
The weather in Peiping is really cloudy and sunny. Yesterday there was a warm sun in the sky, which made people feel like they could no longer wear their cotton-padded jackets. But today there was a strong wind and the temperature plummeted. People who felt cold did not want to go out. But
Days like this are a good day for Han Baihang to send troops.xdw8
Even if you feel that the weather is bad, then the enemy must feel it even more than you do. What's more, such weather will make the enemy fall into a misunderstanding, that is: in such bad weather, it is difficult for the opponent to send troops, so how can they come back to attack you!
But Han Baihang did exactly the opposite.
According to the ancient Chinese art of war: the weather is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people. Now the weather is bad for both sides. The enemy's army is quiet, and our own is moving. The enemy is waiting for work, and our side is attacking over a long distance. As far as the geographical advantage is concerned,
He has the upper hand. But his victory lies in the harmony of people. Firstly, his troops are the elite Third Army Corps of the Fengjun Army, and secondly, they are the most heroic 20,000 soldiers of the Zhili Army. They are all well-trained warriors. Han Baihang
He has great confidence in them. Secondly, under his command, the army has strict orders and prohibitions, and has iron-clad discipline. This is one of the reasons why he dares to go deep into the army.
With the advantage of people and geographical location, Han Baihang has the confidence to win this battle. What's more, Feng Yuxiang's army has already experienced two defeats, and its morale has dropped sharply. He has won two battles, and the whole army is waiting to make another contribution.
The opportunity, the morale gap between the two sides is too big. More importantly, fighting requires brains. He is not trying to beat him to the death. His goal is just to make him withdraw his troops, so he is confident in this mission.
