"Xiang Cheng, what does Brother Jin Bo think? He was leaving his post. Did he have any arrangements for the affairs of the northeast?”Xu Buwu asked.
"Brother Jinbo suggested that the local forces of the northeast should control the northeast. This way, the stability of the northeast could be ensured.”
"In that case, let the local forces of the northeast rule the northeast!”Xu Buwu also had no objections.
"In that case, the three northeastern provinces clearly cannot be controlled by one person anymore. They must be separated.”said Big Head Yuan.
There were more than 20 million people in the three northeastern provinces, which was equivalent to nearly one-twentieth of the country's population. Moreover, it was so close to Beijing. If it fell into the hands of those who opposed him, then the threat to Beijing would be huge.
"Jin Bo recommended three candidates to take charge of Fengtian, Ji, and Hei provinces. They are the 28th Infantry Division Commander Feng Linge, the 23rd Infantry Division Commander Meng Enyuan, and Zhu Ziqiao. Everyone, what are your opinions on this?”said Big Head Yuan.
"Mr. President, General Zhen An must have thought carefully about these three people before recommending them. He believes that these three people are suitable candidates. I also think that these three people are suitable.”Duan Xiangyan was the first to express his opinion.
Big Head Yuan nodded his head as if he agreed with this statement.
Zhang Xiluan was Big Head Yuan's sworn brother, so he had to give him some face.
"Father, I have a different opinion. Meng Enyuan and Zhu Ziqiao should be in charge of the Ji Province and the Hei Province respectively. However, Feng Linge was not suitable to be in charge of Fengtian Province.”As expected, Young Master Yuan was jealous of Feng Linge and his son, and he jumped out to oppose him.
"Why?" Big Head Yuan asked.
"Fengtian Province is the most populated province among the three northeastern provinces. Feng Linge was not powerful enough to control Fengtian Province. On the contrary, the commander of the 27th Infantry Division, Zhang Yuting, was more suitable!”Young Master Yuan was determined to stop Feng Linge from taking over Fengtian Province.
Big Head Yuan couldn't help but frown. He naturally knew what his son was like. Now, Young Master Yuan had jumped out to oppose Feng Linge. It was obvious that he had a grudge against the other party.
"Sigh, this general has already done his best. Next, it would depend on the Feng father and son's luck.”Duan Xiangyan thought to himself. He had already made up his mind not to speak anymore. Otherwise, he would definitely offend Young Master Yuan.
"Does anyone have any objections?" Big Head Yuan continued to ask.
"Mr. President, two days ago, the Foreign Affairs Department received notes from the Americans and the Japanese. The Americans hoped that Feng Linge could take over Fengtian, while the Japanese hoped that Zhang Yuting could take over the position of General Zhen 'an and take over the Northeast!”Foreign Affairs Minister Lu Zixin said.
"Humph! I really didn't expect that the internal affairs of our country would attract so much attention.”Xu Buwu snorted coldly, clearly unhappy.
As for Big Head Yuan, his expression was also a little ugly.
In order to ascend to the throne, Big Head Yuan signed the 21 Rules of betraying the country, but that didn't mean he was truly loyal to the Japanese. Now, the Japanese actually supported Zhang Yuting to take over the position of the general and wanted to control the entire northeast. This made him even more disgusted. As for the Americans who supported Feng Linge to take over Fengtian, they seemed to be less ambitious.
Apart from that, Big Head Yuan also hoped to see the Americans and the Japanese fight in the northeast. In this case, the pressure on the Beiyang government would undoubtedly be much smaller.
Therefore, Big Head Yuan had already made up his mind.
At this moment, Second Young Master Yuan barged in.
Big Head Yuan could not help but frown. Although he loved his second son, he knew that his second son had never liked government affairs.
"Bao Cen, what's the matter?" Big Head Yuan asked patiently.
"Father, I heard that today we are discussing the personnel arrangements in the northeast.”Second Young Master Yuan directly stated his intentions.
"Oh? Tell me!" Big Head Yuan felt strange.
This second son was usually indulging in poetry, calligraphy, and painting. His temper was even more unyielding!
"My son begs Father to appoint Feng Linge to take charge of Fengtian.”Second Young Master Yuan said.
"Oh? Why?" Big Head Yuan was even more puzzled.
"Because I've met Feng Linge's son once. I feel that although that kid is young, he's quite a character. His future might be limitless. After all, there were not many people who dared to reject Young Master Yuan's extortion of millions of dollars.”Second Young Master Yuan said directly.
"Second Yuan, you're slandering me!”Young Master Yuan was furious. He didn't expect Second Young Master Yuan to say this in front of Big Yuan.
Sure enough, Big Head Yuan's face turned even darker.
"Father, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!”After Second Young Master Yuan finished speaking, he left without caring whether Big Head Yuan agreed or not.
"Father, let me explain!" Eldest Young Master Yuan was anxious and wanted to explain.
However, Big Head Yuan waved his hand.""Alright, there's no need to say anymore. I'm not so old that I can't tell right from wrong.”
Eldest Young Master Yuan could only sit down sullenly. However, his hatred for Second Young Master Yuan and the Feng father and son grew even stronger.
"I have already made a decision regarding Fengtian. Feng Linge will be appointed as the Shengwu General to manage Fengtian's military affairs and patrol. As for Zhang Yuting, he would be appointed as Fengtian Military Affairs Assistant!”Big Head Yuan made his decision.
This appointment just happened to swap the positions of Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge in history.
As a result, when Big Head Yuan's appointment was announced, Feng Ping was very surprised. However, this was undoubtedly a joyous occasion for the Feng father and son.
"Haha! This time, he finally managed to suppress Zhang Yuting. I want to see what else he has to say!”Feng Linge was very excited.
General Shengwu was in charge of Fengtian's military affairs and was also a patrol envoy. He represented the highest military and political officer in Fengtian Province! Zhang Yuting was only a military affairs assistant, and he was his subordinate. This made Feng Linge feel very relieved.
"Greetings, marshal!" The trusted generals also bowed to Feng Linge.
In their view, the Northern Warlords 'appointment of Feng Linge represented their support for Feng Linge. They were also more confident in following Feng Linge.
"Father is already a marshal, so wouldn't I be a marshal?”Feng Ping thought to himself. He didn't think that he would snatch Zhang Shao Shuai's title just like that.
During the Northern Warlords period, a provincial governor was often called a marshal. Therefore, at this moment, Feng Ping could completely be addressed as the Young Marshal.
