While Han Baihang was still running away in Nantong City, Zhang Xueliang had already arrived outside Fengtian City overnight. As soon as he entered Fengtian City, Zhang Xueliang went straight to his mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he heard the singing and singing inside.
Zhang Zuolin was sitting on the recliner, shaking his head and admiring it. Zhang Xueliang walked to Zhang Zuolin and whispered: "Dad, everything is ready, you can start."
Zhang Zuolin suddenly opened his eyes, waved to the people around him and said, "Are you sure everything is done?"
Zhang Xueliang, it turns out that you have been in the dust. Although he was exhausted, he could not suppress the joy in his heart and said: "Everything is done. Now as long as the rumor is spread and the momentum is built bit by bit, Wu Peifu will be charged with treason and treason!"
Zhang Zuolin remained silent and showed no sign of happiness at all. Instead, he handed a piece of paper on the table to Zhang Xueliang and said in a deep voice: "Take a look for yourself!"
Zhang Xueliang frowned and took it. Slowly, anger emerged on his face. He suddenly slapped the telegram on the table and cursed: "Something that fails to succeed but fails to fail!"
Zhang Zuolin waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, this matter is not your fault, nor is it Zhang Renkui's fault. Lu Lanchun is a bit surprising."
Zhang Xueliang gritted his teeth, filled with anger and nowhere to vent. The situation he had spent so much time and energy on was actually disrupted by a woman.
"What should we do now? Han Baihang has escaped. Should the plan continue?"
Zhang Zuolin gently wiped his pistol with a white cloth and said: "Of course we have to proceed. Han Baihang is just a chess piece. The net has been cast. Even if a small fish escapes, it won't be a big deal. As long as Wu Peifu is a big fish
It’ll be fine if you can’t run out.”
Zhang Xueliang said in a deep voice: "But now Han Baihang has run away. With Wu Peifu's current reputation, it may be difficult to bring him down!"
Before Zhang Zuolin could reply, a guard ran in from behind and said to Zhang Zuolin: "Commander, Mr. Jin wants to see you."
"I understand. You ask him to wait in the hall first." Zhang Zuolin stood up slowly and said to Zhang Xueliang: "You go down and rest first. The plan will be put on hold for now. We will talk about it when the situation becomes clearer."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Zuolin walked towards the hall without waiting for Zhang Xueliang to speak. As soon as he entered the hall, Jin Yunpeng immediately greeted him, cupped his hands and said: "Brother Yuting, I haven't seen you for a long time, your body and bones are still as strong as ever."
Zhang Zuolin smiled and replied: "I am getting old, and my body is not as strong as before. Yiqing, you have to stay with me for a while. I will take you to have a good stroll in Fengtian City."
Jin Yunpeng sighed: "How can I still think about hanging out now!"
Looking at Jin Yunpeng's gloomy face, Zhang Zuolin roughly guessed the purpose of his trip. He was just here to act as a lobbyist for Duan Qirui. He didn't tell the truth at the moment, but just sighed and said: "Hey, the world is difficult, everyone's life is difficult.
It’s not easy.”
When Jin Yunpeng saw that Zhang Zuolin didn't take the bait, but was very sentimental about it, he didn't care about his face and said, "I came here this time to ask you a favor from Yuting."
Zhang Zuolin pretended to be surprised and said: "I am a dying old man, how can I help you? Forget it, forget it."
When Jin Yunpeng saw that none of his requests had been fulfilled, Zhang Zuolin refused directly and said anxiously: "This is also the intention of the president."
Zhang Zuolin frowned and said, "Do you want me to keep the Zhiquan and Anfu people?"
Jin Yunpeng sighed: "Look, this is the terms of peace signed by my mentor."
As he spoke, Jin Yunpeng handed a stack of paper filled with words to Zhang Zuolin, and Zhang Zuolin read the documents in his hand carefully.
There are roughly four items listed in it: first, punish Xu Shuzheng; second, disband the border guards; third, dissolve the Anfu Clique and remove chiefs Zeng Minjun, Li Sihao, and Zhu Shensan; fourth, dissolve the Anfu Congress.
Zhang Zuolin glanced at it, put the documents together, closed his eyes and said softly: "What did Cao Kun say?"
Jin Yunpeng gritted his teeth and said, "That old dog, Cao Kun, thought the conditions were too low. Not only did he refuse to agree, he also asked Cao Rui to detain Fu Liangzuo and the more than 100 armed guards who accompanied him."
Jin Yunpeng was furious when he mentioned this. After all, everyone used to eat from the same bowl, but he didn't expect Cao Kun to be so shameless.
Now the only one who can compete with the Zhili Clique is Zhang Zuolin, so Jin Yunpeng worked tirelessly and rushed to Fengtian overnight just to get Zhang Zuolin's support.
Zhang Zuolin frowned and thought for a moment. The Zhili clique was currently very powerful. If he could get the support of the Anhui clique, he could also increase his capital to fight against the Zhili clique.
After thinking about this, Zhang Zuolin said in a deep voice: "Is this also what the president meant?"
Seeing Zhang Zuolin's softened tone, Jin Yunpeng was overjoyed and said excitedly: "I know that Yushuai you have a close relationship with my master. Now that my master is in trouble, I don't want to make a comeback. I just want to live a stable old age and save some face for each other."
Zhang Zuolin sighed: "Zhiquan is here today because Xu Shuzheng is surrounded by a group of traitors. Don't worry, even if the president doesn't say anything, I will try my best to save him face."
Jin Yunpeng was frustrated one after another by Cao Kun and Wu Peifu, so he had no choice but to ask for help from Zhang Zuolin. In this way, at least he could give the Anhui clique some breathing space.
"But now, Wu Peifu has obtained the support of Britain, the United States and other countries. What are you going to do?"
At present, under the instigation of Wu Peifu, the whole country is strongly demanding the punishment of the Anfu Congress, Duan Qirui and other criminals. Unlike Japan's harboring criminals, the British, American and French ministers in China have ordered their overseas Chinese not to allow criminals to stay within the embassy grounds, and
It is believed that the Chinese government has the right to extradite criminals and bring them to justice.
Now Duan Qirui and the Anfu National Congress have simply become street rats that everyone wants to beat. Although Zhang Zuolin promised to help, how to help is very difficult.
Zhang Zuolin sighed and said: "I will go to Luoyang in a few days. Maybe I can talk to Wu Peifu. You should also go back and have a good talk with your master. After all, we are all from the same family. I believe Cao Kun and the others will not do this.
It’s very excessive.”
With Zhang Zuolin's guarantee, Jin Yunpeng said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you so much, Yushuai. I thank you on behalf of your respected master."
Zhang Zuolin waved his hand, stopped Jin Yunpeng who was about to bow down, and sighed: "You don't have to do this. Let's go. I'll take you out. When you get back, tell the president what I mean. There's no explanation for this, and I need his help."
Jin Yunpeng was escorted by Zhang Zuolin and walked out of Fengtian City with great gratitude. Zhang Zuolin looked at Jin Yunpeng's leaving back and couldn't help but frown.
The water in Beijing is really getting muddier and muddy. Whether Zhang Zuolin can succeed or not, he actually has to fall on a small person who is on the run.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zuolin glanced towards the south.
