Chapter 605 The Restart of the Northeast War (3)

After receiving the order from the People's Army, Zhang Zuolin couldn't help but hesitate because someone reminded Zhang Zuolin to be on guard against the People's Army and not to trust them too much. Because of the two Japanese who had been living in the Bajiaotai area, they tried their best to persuade Zhang Zuolin to be cautious and not careless.

It turns out that although Zhang Zuolin had defected to the People's Army, he has never completely cut off contact with Japan. Although Zhang Zuolin's heart really hopes that the East China government can rule the Northeast for a long time, but in the current situation is not completely clear, Zhang Zuolin dares not bet entirely on the side of the East China government, so that he maintains relations with Japan. Of course, Japan does not want to completely give up Zhang Zuolin, and hopes to pull Zhang Zuolin to Japan's side. After all, Zhang Zuolin is one of the largest local armed forces in the Northeast. If Zhang Zuolin can be pulled over, it will of course pose a great threat to the East China government and will be beneficial to Japan's actions.

In addition, within Zhang Zuolin's jurisdiction, it is more relaxed than the direct management of the People's Army, which is also conducive to the activities of Japanese intelligence personnel. Therefore, Japan set up an intelligence point in the Okayaka Platform area and stayed there for a long time. On the one hand, it collected intelligence and observed the changes in the current situation; on the other hand, it also tried to win over Zhang Zuolin. However, the current situation is not good for Japan, so it cannot come up with any practical things to convince Zhang Zuolin. Bi Jing and Zhang Zuolin was not fooled at that time, so recently, it has mainly focused on Zhang Zuolin's people under Zhang Zuolin. Last time, Tang Yulin advocated turning against the People's Army and snatching the People's Army's weapons, but it was actually instigated by Japanese spies behind the scenes.

Although Zhang Zuolin also knew that the Japanese were trying to break up, it did touch his mind, because Zhang Zuolin was really unable to see what the People's Army was, whether he really needed his help to guard the railway line, or wanted to take the opportunity to trap himself or control himself.

Although Zhang Zuolin had been to Shenyang before, he only brought more than 20 people and the team was left at the Octagonal Platform. At least Zhang Zuolin recognized that the People's Army would have some concerns. However, this time the People's Army asked him to bring 2,000 people to Shenyang, which accounted for most of his team. If the People's Army really wanted to attack him, it would not be uprooting his own power, but it would be a serious injury to the vitality, and the remaining people could not make any big waves.

Because of this, Zhang Zuolin also knew that he was indeed not clean. Bi Jing was now inseparable from Japan, but this was enough to give the People's Army sufficient reason to get rid of him. In fact, Zhang Zuolin is still not sure whether the People's Army really didn't know whether he had a secret relationship with Japan or had known it but deliberately pretended to be confused. Therefore, Zhang Zuolin could not hesitate.

However, Zhang Zuolin also knew that if he refused to go to Shenyang this time, he would undoubtedly offend the People's Army, and the achievements in suppressing bandits over the past few months would have been basically useless. Even if the People's Army won completely in the future and did not settle the account with him, he would probably completely lose the trust of the People's Army. To be a founding hero of the East China government, it would undoubtedly be just a dream.

So after thinking for two days, Zhang Zuolin finally decided to obey the orders of the People's Army and take the team to Shenyang. Because there may not be any trouble when he goes to Shenyang. Maybe the People's Army is thinking too much about protecting the railway line, and it is a bit like a 50% difference. On the contrary, if he doesn't go to Shenyang, there will be only bad things, and there is no good. Therefore, Zhang Zuolin finally decided to take Sun Liechen, Tang Yulin, Wang Liping, Zhang Sifei and others to Shenyang, leaving Zhang Zuoxiang and Zhang Jinghui to guard the octagonal platform, and secretly told the two that once they heard any bad news, they would immediately take their families and leave without caring about their lives.

Zhang Zuolin and his group left the Octagonal Platform and after two days of marching, they arrived in Chenyang. Although it was less than three months since they came to Chenyang last time, the scene was very different this time. The traces left by the war were almost gone, and the prosperity of Chenyang was even more prosperous. Various vehicles were coming and going on, and shops were open. It was at the train station, which was even more lively. Various goods were boarded and got off very frequently, crowding several platforms. The trains also drove out one after another, heading north and going south.

In addition, a large number of people got on and got off the bus. However, Zhang Zuolin and others observed that these people were not passengers, but Russian and Japanese prisoners of war. They were all very honest under the custody of the People's Army soldiers, and they were called to stand and sit.

This scene also shocked Zhang Zuolin and others. Although they all knew the results of the People's Army's foreign war, Bi Jing only heard of it without intuitive understanding. Now seeing so many Russian and Japanese prisoners of war, they have a clear understanding. Zhang Zuolin has not dealt with Russian and Japanese in recent years, and has seen many troops of the two countries. He clearly felt that the Russian and Japanese soldiers were almost written on his face. Occasionally, Zhang Zuolin would also attack the Japanese and Russian soldiers who were left alone. However, even if he was captured and killed, he was still full of contempt and arrogant towards the Chinese army. But now he saw a large number of Japanese and Russian prisoners of war, one by one, bowing his head and mind like sheep, and he did not have the disdainful look he used to look like a sheep.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but sigh. When they came to Chenyang City, the army was arranged to rest in the military camp. Someone led Zhang Zuolin to see Qin Zheng. It turned out that Qin Zheng had specially ordered that Zhang Zuolin would immediately take Zhang Zuolin to see him as soon as Zhang Zuolin's team arrived. In fact, although Zhang Zuolin was a powerful officer in the old time and space, he was just a battalion commander-level officer at this time, and there was a far difference from Qin Zheng. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Zuolin was not qualified to see Qin Zheng at all. However, it was the time to use people, so Qin Zheng planned to encourage Zhang Zuolin in person, and of course he would also fight and let Zhang Zuolin work for the People's Army with peace of mind. After all, comforting Zhang Zuolin has a great driving effect, and it is a good demonstration effect for Feng Linge, Ma Longtan, who has already joined the People's Army, Wu Junsheng, Du Lisan, etc. who are talking about surrendering.

After Zhang Zuolin learned about it, he was also surprised and happy. Of course, he knew that Qin Zheng was the second head of the East China Government. He is now in charge of the government, military, economic and financial sector in the Northeast region, and has great power, so he was quite flattered. But he was worried about what it means to transfer himself alone and whether he would want to arrest him. However, at this time, Zhang Zuolin refused, so he could only say hello to Sun Liechen and others, and then leave with the commander.

Not long after, he came to Qin Zheng's office and spent several months with the People's Army. Zhang Zuolin knew a lot about the rules of the People's Army. He knew that the People's Army would not raise a bow, so he hurriedly saluted a military salute and said, "Zhang Zuolin, the captain of the Xinminfu Detachment, reported to Chief Qin."

Qin Zheng was also wearing military uniform, and gave a bow, saying, "After a moment, Captain Zhang, please sit down."

Only then did Zhang Zuolin put down his hand and sat down respectfully in front of Qin Zheng, but his waist was still straight.

Qin Zheng said: "Although Captain Zhang has not joined our People's Army for a long time, he has performed well. He has wiped out several bandits and made many military achievements!"

Zhang Zuolin hurriedly said, "There are actually the credits of Company Commander Liu. They have strong firepower and brave combat. If it weren't for Company Commander Liu, I would not be able to destroy these bandits by relying on my team alone. Zuolin would not dare to take credit."

Qin Zheng laughed and said, "You don't have to be humble. If you don't have you familiar with the terrain and environment, and understand the habits of bandits, no matter how powerful the firepower is, it is impossible to wipe out bandits so smoothly. So if you have your contributions, he has his contributions, and none of them are missing."

Zhang Zuolin said: "Since Zuolin has joined the People's Army, it is also Zuolin's duty."

Qin Zheng said: "Yes, it's a mistake in our work. Although you have joined the People's Army, you have not given you military uniforms, standard weapons, and formal reorganizations and numbers. Maybe you are blaming us for not treating you as a real People's Army."

Zhang Zuolin hurriedly said, "How dare Zuolin? General Qiu said before that it is time for war, so it is inevitable that something is inconsistency. Moreover, the People's Army not only sent Company Commander Liu to help us, but also drew a lot of guns and ammunition to help suppress bandits. How dare Zuolin still complain?"

Qin Zheng said: "It is good that you can think of this, but we can't let you not have a formal title for a long time. Now that your team is here, I will arrange someone to send you military uniforms tomorrow, and change them all, at least like it, and also give you a temporary number. It's too late for weapons, but it's still OK to replace them with Mosinnagan rifles, oh, it's what you call Water Beads. In this way, you will be considered a formal People's Army."

When Zhang Zuolin heard this, he was happy and worried. He didn't care whether he had a military uniform or not. However, all the 2,000 people he brought were replaced with Mosin Nagan rifles, which of course greatly improved his strength. However, Zhang Zuolin did not like becoming a formal People's Army. In fact, Zhang Zuolin was very satisfied with the current state of the People's Army's extra-partner army. Even if he had defected to the People's Army and expanded his strength by suppressing bandits, it was not a formal People's Army. It made Japan still have fantasies about himself and wanted to pull himself back, so naturally he had to give himself some benefits. But now that he has become a formal People's Army, it is hard to say whether Japan still wants to pull himself back, but it is definitely not full of expectations for himself as before.
