Chapter 201 Chaos

However, Zhang Zuoxiang was not idle during the coma of Tu Sanpao. He led Zhang Xueliang to travel among the old-school people who were left by Zhang Zuolin, and visited the old-school and powerful people, including Tang Yulin. He also accompanied Yang Yuting.

After having dinner, he met with Yuan Jinkaimi, a powerful figure in the Fengtian clan, for more than three hours.

Finally, at the Federation of Parliamentary Councils of the Three Eastern Provinces held again seven days later, Zhang Xueliang was elected as the new commander-in-chief of the Three Eastern Provinces with unanimous votes. It was announced to the public that Zhang Xueliang was sworn in in Fengtian City two days later.

Later, Zhang Zuolin was in funeral! The three eastern provinces were filled with sorrow. To be honest, people at that time had a complicated mood about the bearded coach. Under the rule of this bearded coach, the three eastern provinces were compared with other years of war.

The province is relatively calm.

Although there are some bandits and some are harsh and taxes, it is much better than in the pass! At least you don’t have to worry about being forced to get a bully or collecting property without any official penalties.

But the bearded coach has been fighting for years and is fighting everywhere in a mess. It is also true. For this reason, they also paid some taxes. Therefore, the people of the three northeastern provinces are really in a complicated mood about the coach. However,

On the day of Zhang Zuolin's funeral, many people came to worship.

Not to mention the Fengtian people, the rest of the people who came here were the Japanese consul Lim Kujiro, the new commander of the Kanto Army, and the special envoy of Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiichi Tanaka, Lin Quansuke, who came to the memorial site in person.

Zhang Qun, sent by Chiang Zhongzheng, also came to Fengtian at this time and worshiped Zhang Zuolin as the General Senator.

The British Consulate in Fengtian also symbolically sent people to worship, and people from all walks of life laid wreaths to express their condolences. For a time, the Magistrate's Mansion was bustling, and people from all walks of life were in and out of the Magistrate's Mansion with their own different purposes

out.

It is worth mentioning that the elegiac couplet sent by Nanjing Government is: "The bad news has almost changed the color of mountains and rivers; there are many difficulties in promoting the country, so we should be sympathetic to the wind and rain." The lines imply that the taste of unity is extremely strong. This is even the Japanese.

Everyone feels awakened!

Zhang Xueliang was wearing a filial piety robe, tied a hemp rope on his waist, and erected his head with his head down. Tu Sanpao, Tu Qianjun and his son were also wearing filial piety robes and stood beside Zhang Xueliang. Zhang Xueliang originally wanted to

Zhu Tu Sanpao's wound had not healed yet. That day, in order to make him run to the conference room and his wound burst and bleeding, he tried his best to dissuade him from participating without having to attend.

But Tu Sanpao himself was very stubborn and asked himself and his son to wear filial robes and stand behind Zhang Xueliang as the Zhang family. Zhang Xueliang could not resist his uncle Sanpao, so he had to follow his wishes.

The public memorial service was held for two days, and Zhang Zuolin's body spent the last two days in the ice to set its final destination.

Since Zhang Zuolin died very suddenly, all the shrouds and coffins were temporarily prepared. The shrouds were originally made by the Beijing Yongzeng shrouds Club, which was originally made by Zhang Zuolin when he was worshiping the temple. The hat was matched with the clothes.

The front and back round hats.

The coffin used was made by the sunken wood accumulated in the early years of the Shuaifu, also known as "Wannian Artemisia". It was June and the weather was stuffy. In order to prevent the corpse from rotting, cloth dipped in tung oil wrapped the coffin and iced outside. The mourning hall was in front of the middle of the mourning hall.

There was a huge photo of Zhang Zuolin wearing a marshal's uniform, wreaths were placed on both sides of the coffin, and the walls around it were full of elegy couplets and pendants.

Zhang Zuolin's funeral was handled according to the customs of the Northeast. June 23 is the first day of worship, called "Search Three", also called "Search Three", and farewell. On this day, drums and music are sounding, and filial sons hold brooms to attract their souls.

The heads of various departments were wearing white sanctum robes, green jackets, and green beanie hats without red knots, followed closely behind.

In the following days, family members and all walks of life held memorial activities.

According to the customs of the Northeast, the "July 7" should be buried immediately after the "July 7", but because Zhang Zuolin died suddenly and the tomb site was not selected, let alone the tomb construction, so he had to move his coffin to the Zhang Family Temple first, and this place was actually Zhang Zuolin.

At the Guandi Temple built during his lifetime, Zhang Xueliang invited someone to sculpt a clay statue of Zhang Zuolin wearing a marshal's costume, and worshipped it here at the same time. He also sent an official Xing Shouqing to take care of it.

After settling down the coffin, choosing a cemetery became the top priority. Many people offered suggestions, including Feng Shui masters and relatives and friends. Peng Xian, who was the chief executive of the official bank office of the three eastern provinces, thanked Zhang Zuolin for his "a great achievement" and "

It is planned to build the Secret Palace of the Grand Marshal with the private land of Wanquan River, plant pine and celadon, and use light mulberry camphor." Due to various reasons, it has not been adopted.

At that time, although the Kwantung Army and the Japanese cabinet saw that the three northeastern provinces did not become as messed up as they hoped, they still felt that Zhang Xueliang was just a Huangkouru, and he was still a little tenderer than Zhang Zuolin!

He secretly ordered the commander of the Kanto Army, Hidetaro Hata and the Consul in Fengtian, Lin Kujiro, and others to take the treaty stamped by Zhang Zuolin and ask Zhang Xueliang to fulfill it.

But Zhang Xueliang is not a fool! He directly told Hata Hidetaro and Lin Kujiro: "The Huanggutun bomb has destroyed all the documents in the veteran's special car, and everything is no basis. Since it is not basis, I naturally cannot execute it.

.”

After the Japanese side, who was originally entangled in this matter, realized that Zhang Xueliang seemed to have a tendency to change his flag, the Japanese side was also a little panicked! For a moment, they didn't dare to force him too much! Instead, they turned to let Zhang Xueliang not change his flag, and even chose *

*!

They met Zhang Xueliang several times and proposed a warning not to compromise with the South. On July 19, the intention of Tianzhong was sent to Zhang Xueliang. The contents include: 1. Nanjing National Civil Affairs has a communist color and its status has not yet been stable. The Northeast cannot be violated at present.

Contact with Nanjing; 2. If the National Civil Affairs Bureau attacks the Northeast with force, Japan is willing to send troops to help; 3. If the Northeast financial difficulties occur, Japan's Masao Bank is willing to provide full assistance.

Then the Japanese Consulate General in Fengtian held a banquet to welcome Lin Quanzhu and invited Zhang Xueliang to the banquet. At that time, Zhang Xueliang took Tu Qianjun to attend the banquet. At the beginning, there was still a lot of singing and dancing to peace, and then the Japanese's thoughts were revealed!

Lin Quanjue asked the Consul in Fengtian, Lin Kujiro, to call Zhang Xueliang to his side, first conveyed Prime Minister Tanaka's opinion, emphasizing that Japan has special rights and interests in Manchuria and Mongolia, and hinted that the young marshal should not "get into the trap set by southerners."

But Zhang Xueliang suppressed the anger in his heart and smiled and said to Lin Quanzhu: "I respect the opinions of Japan very much, but please respect me too! Moreover, one of the three northeastern provinces is not something I can do! It's me.

The compatriots in the three eastern provinces are mainly willing! This is our internal affairs of China and has nothing to do with Japan!"

Hataro heard Zhang Xueliang say this, and looked at Zhang Xueliang with a sneer and said slowly: "Of course, the young marshal doesn't have to listen to the advice of my great Japanese Empire, but to reach a compromise with the rioting South. But in order to maintain our country's ability to do so in Manchuria.

The right to take necessary actions at the necessary moments! Please prepare for this!!”

Zhang Xueliang heard Hata Hidetaro constantly calling him "Young Marshal" and couldn't help but "rub!" and then he got angry! At this time, Tu Qianjun, who was standing beside Zhang Xueliang, had not spoken, suddenly looked at Hata Hidetaro coldly! That look

It was like a tiger looking at its prey! Hata Hidetaro couldn't help but get goose bumps!

"Hahata Hidetaro, right?! If you want, you can try it..." Tu Qianjun looked at the new Kwantung Army commander coldly and said in a cold voice: "I haven't been satisfied with killing outside Jinan City! You can take it

Try your head to see if my knife is good enough!”

The countless Kwantung sergeants present were furious when they heard Tu Qianjun's "slam"! Howling, "Maru Yelang!!" and wanted to pull out his command knife to pounce on him! Zhang Xueliang said nothing, and was astonished as he was ashen.

His face looked at the beastly howling of these Japanese people! And the Hataro and Lin Quansuke were drinking sake on their own as if they hadn't seen this situation.

Take advantage of his power! Tu Qianjun sneered, and then rushed forward and grabbed the wrist of a Kwantung Army first! Then a heavy technique called "Kara" twisted the neck of the Kwantung Army officer into a twisted shape! The twisted

The falling Kanto Army officer suddenly made a "keep~" sound in his throat, and he fell to the ground!

Tu Qianjun did not stop at all, and directly grabbed the remaining command knife and chopped off a Kwantung Army officer who rushed over! He heard "Take~" and the Kwantung Army officer who rushed up actually slaughtered Qianjun.

He cut open his chest and abdomen with one knife! The intestines flowed all over the floor with a "slam"!

Suddenly, screams and screams of fear came in the hall! The whole cocktail party was in chaos! And outside the Japanese consulate, there was a roar of tanks with "rumbling ~" sound! It was held in this consulate hall.

The Kwantung Army members who knew him could not help but change their faces when they heard the roar!

"Maru Noro!! You actually hurt my soldiers of the Japanese Empire!" Hataro and Lin Quansuke were already shocked by the performance of Tu Qianjun in the flashlight! They did not expect that the person beside Zhang Xueliang who had never spoken.

A child under twenty years old actually had such cruel methods! Pu let out two people just after he tried his best!

The sound of the tank car coming from outside the door made them even more frightened. They didn't expect that Zhang Xueliang was so tough! Tank car was ambushing outside to protect the car! But it was not a big deal for Zhang Xueliang, who could you even kill his father?

Are you not careful?!

"Your people are here to cause trouble first, right?" Zhang Xueliang looked at Hata Hidetaro and Lin Quansuke coldly and said slowly: "Xueliang suddenly felt uncomfortable, so Xueliang said goodbye first! I wish you all the fun

Happy! No need to give it to me!"

Hearing Zhang Xueliang say this, Tu Qianjun threw down the Japanese knife in his hand and then picked up Zhang Xueliang's coat and put it on Zhang Xueliang. Then he surrounded Zhang Xueliang and watched the Japanese slowly leave the banquet hall.

.

After leaving the door, Zhang Xueliang called Tu Qianjun into his car. Tu Qianjun was stunned for a moment, and went in without hesitation. After entering, Zhang Xueliang smiled and sorted out the messy clothes for Tu Qianjun and said, "Next time

Don’t be so impulsive. Although we all hate the Japanese very much, it is not the time to turn against each other! Keep calm! Junzi!"

Tu Qianjun remained silent. If he could calm down, how could it be my style?! Seeing that Tu Qianjun didn't speak, Zhang Xueliang stopped talking and asked Tu Qianjun to sit beside him and return to the commander's mansion together.

On the second day, the Kwantung Army reinforced 8,000 troops and 13,000 Korean minions from North Korea to the northeast. Then, a total of more than 20,000 Japanese Kwantung Army carried out a three-day massive exercise outside Fengtian City! During this period, Qingdao's

More than 20 Japanese Flying Brigade's Flight Brigade came to support it. The intentions were fully revealed!

At this time, Chiang Chiang finally took action! He connected the pressure on Japan between Britain and the United States to stop the Kwantung Army from operating in the Northeast. Zhang Xueliang also called Colt, who was in the United States, hoping that he could communicate with the US government and promised

A batch of weapons will be purchased.

These methods finally worked. Britain and the United States began to summon their respective Japanese ambassadors to their countries and clearly expressed their unwillingness to Japan to have too many actions to "surpass the bottom line" in China. Britain and the United States also had their own considerations, after all, if Japan was

If China's power continues to expand or even directly occupy the three northeastern provinces, it will not be good news for them.

Therefore, they kept putting pressure on Japan again. Under such heavy pressure, the Japanese side finally stopped watching Zhang Xueliang continue to meet in a secret meeting with Zhang Qun, a representative from Nanjing!

At the end of October 1928, the cemetery of the late general Zhang Zuolin was finally settled. Zhang Xueliang and his wife Yu Fengzhi, Zhang Zuolin's fifth concubine, Mrs. Shou and his subordinate Zhang Jinghui, visited them personally and selected Dongli of Fushun.

A Xiangyang Mountain Grove is located in the south of Yingzi Village, Gaoli, 60 miles away. There are ruins from the eastern expedition of Emperor Taizong of Tang more than 1,300 years ago. The hills are surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is very beautiful. There are green pines and cypresses on the mountain, and the Hun River is in front of it.

The majestic Tiebei Mountain is across the water from the other side. Nurhaci built a vassal city here.

In the autumn of that year, Zhang Xueliang bought land from farmers in the name of Sanshe Hall as the land for Zhang Zuolin to build a tomb. The soil quality of these mountains is not good. In order to sympathize with the people, Zhang Xueliang bought it at the preferential price of arable land. The entire transaction handler was the

After Peng Xian's cemetery was selected, he immediately sent someone to survey and conduct overall design, and named Marshal Lin. Who should I send to build Marshal Lin?! Zhang Xueliang took a lot of trouble and wanted to consider slaughtering one of the three-pao father and son.

But since the Kwantung Army is now on the side, and Tu Sanpao and his son are his most trustworthy combat power, Zhang Xueliang thought for a long time but still failed to establish it.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xueliang finally chose Peng Xian, an old subordinate who was loyal to the Zhang family for two generations. Peng Xian’s courtesy name is Xiangting, also known as Xiangting. He was born in 1887 and is from Xinmin County, Fengtian Province. He studied in a private school since he was a child and was poor.

When he was an apprentice at a grain store, his father had a good relationship with Zhang Zuolin, so he received Zhang's care and support everywhere and was gradually promoted. In 1925, he was appointed as the general office of the official bank of the three eastern provinces and the president of the Border Bank. Zhang Xueliang also trusted Peng Xian very much.

, Peng Xian was also pleased to accept the order.

So Zhang Xueliang handed over all the construction of Zhang Zuolin's mausoleum to Peng Xian, and he had to face the first most severe test since he took office - whether to change his flag!
