The crackling sounds of firecrackers seemed to be bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new year. On the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, it was the eve of the new year. Fengtian was extremely lively. Even with the heavy snow, there were more people. The most lively place was the marshal's residence!
Lin Haoqiong also treated the night of the eve of the Lunar New Year as a gathering of all the forces in the northeast. All the people of the northeast gathered. It could be said to be a true gathering of heroes!
The military and political leaders of Heilong Province, Ji Province, Liao Province, and Rehe Province, who were like the old brothers who had started from scratch with Lin Haoqiong, were all here!
Jiang Dengxuan, Tang Yulin, Zhang Zuoxiang, Feng Delin, and the others were all sitting at the same table as Lin Haoqiong. These people of the older generation were all chatting and laughing. As they chatted and laughed, they planned the direction of the development of Fengtian in the future!
"Duan Zhirui wants to return Rehe to them, cede the eastern part of Mongolia, the operating rights of the two railroads, and 20 million yuan. Do you think Fengtian will agree?”
Lin Haoqiong's gaze was gloomy. Duan Zhirui's Northern Warlords had inherited Yuan Shikai's Northern Warlords and had many elite forces. Moreover, the Northern Warlords were the official rulers of China. The support they received from the western powers was something that the northeast could not achieve!
"Commander, Duan Zhirui's Northern Army has been the strongest army in China since Yuan Shikai's era. Although our Northeast Army's equipment has improved over the years, we inherited the original Northern Army during the past few battles inside the pass. Whether it's the direct line or the Wan Line, the training and tactics came from the German Army.”
Yang Yuting was sitting at the table next to him, and with him was the Northeast's non-commissioned officers. Yang Yuting was greatly trusted by Zhang Zuolin, so the group of non-commissioned officers also held high positions, such as Yang Yuting, who was currently the supervisor of Fengtian Munitions Factory.
"Inspector Yang seems to be quite suspicious of the combat ability of our Northeast Army!”
The person who spoke was Guo Songlin, the representative of the Lu Sect, who had a big beard and was wearing a thick military uniform. Beside him was Lin Xueliang. As a member of the Lu Sect, the various sects were no longer as pretentious as before!
Lin Xueliang and Yang Yuting had always been at odds with each other. At this moment, the living room was filled with a tense atmosphere!
Zhang Zuoxiang looked at Lin Haoqiong. This ruler of the northeast did not say anything. It was obvious that it was unwise for others to stop him!
"General Guo, I, Yang Yuting, have always focused on the situation and not the person. I know that the 3rd Corps can fight, but after two wars, the Northeast has undoubtedly lost. If we continue to fight with the Beiyang Army, the Northeast's chances of winning are probably less than 30%!”
Lin Xueliang's expression changed. Yang Yuting was really annoying, but his father thought highly of him. He was the supervisor of the Fengtian Munitions Factory, and he controlled the supply of war materials for the various armies in the northeast!
Lin Xueze also gestured for Guo Songlin to sit down, his palm pressing down slightly. Zhao Tianlei's storm had not been resolved yet, and he, Lin Xueze, was also involved. He wondered if his father had received the news!
"Motherf * cker, haha, today is the eve of the new year. I'll drink a glass of wine first as punishment. Who asked me to talk too much about government affairs?!”
"All of you are the pillars of our northeast. We can't hurt our harmony because of some small matters!”
"Where's that kid, Xueze? He said he would come back today. Why hasn't he come back yet? He made everyone wait for him. This Little Five deserves to be punished!!”
Lin Haoqiong missed his youngest son a little. Anping couldn't compare to Fengtian. This kid had turned Anping upside down again a few days ago!
Lin Xueze?
His fifth brother?
Lin Xueliang's memories of Lin Xueze flooded in like a tidal wave. In the past, Lin Xueze had never liked military affairs. Instead, he was very fond of scholarly and elegant matters. Because he had been weak and sickly since he was young, Lin Xueze would avoid everyone's gaze and cower in fear. He was a Lin Xueze who did not pose any threat!
Now, it was just a narrow escape, but it was a huge change. He was doing well in Anping. Although he was the regimental commander of the Third Corps in name, he did not have a base. The Third Corps was stationed in Jinzhou, which was many times larger than Anping. It was also an important traffic route. However, the power was not concentrated in Lin Xueliang's hands alone. The local government would not follow Lin Xueliang's orders!
This time, Anping's Granny Feng was Lin Xueze who uprooted the Zhao family and shot them to death without giving them any face!
When this news reached Lin Xueliang's ears, he couldn't sleep at night for a few days. He was worried, especially his father!
"Haha, marshal, are you afraid that Xueze will fall for his tricks? Zhao Tianlei's decades of experience are still in his hands. Don't worry, at most, he'll come back and give him an extra seat.”
Zhang Zuoxiang also came out to tease him. He could not speak about military affairs and was not abnormal, but for private matters and relationships, it was still possible to maintain their old relationship as sworn brothers.
Lin Haoqiong also laughed loudly. Clearly, his mood was also very good when he mentioned Lin Xueze. That Little Fifth had really shocked him!
At this moment, in the side hall of the Lin Manor!
" I haven't tidied up this place yet…"
The girl was leaning against Lin Xueze, straightening his collar and slightly straightening it.
Although the girl's face was slightly red due to the cold temperature, it was still exquisite!
She was wearing an extremely well-cut pink coat and a pure white scarf around her neck. Lin Xueze's hands were also very dishonest. The pair of slender legs below made Lin Xueze feast his eyes. Suddenly, he wrapped the girl's soft waist in his arms!
" Hehe, do you want to become Madam Lin earlier…"
Facing Lin Xueze's teasing, Yu Fengzhi also became slightly stern.| He shouted.
" Hurry up, everyone's waiting for you…"
