Zhang Zhengzong heaved a sigh of relief when Little Zhang finally left. It was good that he did not see the prodigal. After all, Old Zhang's remnant memories had a huge impact on him. When he thought of Little Six from his previous world, it was very difficult for him to like this " son " of his.
Although he had turned into a middle-aged man, Zhang Zhengzong was still the King of the Northeast. If he wanted to build a strong country, his starting point was very high. He was far better than those people who dressed up as young marshals.
The Feng army held a military meeting. The division commanders of the various divisions in the office came, and there were also a few provincial governors supervising the army.
It could be said that Old Zhang's subordinates and brothers were all here. Everyone knew that Old Seven was either going to settle scores with them or divide the firearms.
In the parking lot, a large number of adjutants and guards were chatting with each other as they watched their commander enter the office.
On the Feng lineage's side, Old Zhang's brothers were also great marshals of the Feng lineage. It was just that they weren't as famous as Zhang Zhengzong, the King of the Northeast.
Previously, the Feng faction had twelve divisions, five mixed regiments, and close to two hundred thousand soldiers.
After a fierce battle, more than 50,000 people were captured, and more than 30,000 people were injured. Although some people were released, the Feng faction also bled and lost all their weapons and equipment.
It could be said that within two to three years, the Feng army would not have the strength to enter the pass.
Old Zhang had killed a batch and retreated another batch, but it was not enough because the higher-ups did not move a single one.
These people were Old Zhang's brothers and had a deep relationship with Old Zhang.
Zhang Zhengzong was seated at the head of the table. His gloomy expression caused the few people who wanted to greet him to unconsciously sit down. Everyone could sense that this Zong Shuai seemed to be in a very bad mood.
"Handsome, everyone is here." Shun Zi stood behind Zhang Zhengzong and whispered.
Ten division commanders, three brigadier generals of the mixed regiment, Yang Guanghui, and a few other high-ranking officers in charge of staff and logistics. As for the other brigade commanders, they were all dismissed.
Zhang Zhengzong stroked Old Zhang's mustache and slowly said," I called everyone here today for a major matter. It concerns the life and death of my Feng lineage.”
"Old Seventh." Before Tang Erhu could finish, Zhang Zhengzong reprimanded him,"It's a formal occasion.”
Tang Erhu was a little unhappy, but he still said honestly,"Commander-in-chief, could it be that the previous defeat has already sealed the coffin?"”
Yang Guanghui, as Old Zhang's trusted aide, naturally knew what his superior was thinking. He had to suppress Tang Erhu in order to allow Old Zhang's topic to continue. This was the way of balancing. Otherwise, Zhang Zhengzong's reputation as the King of the Northeast would be ruined, and the Feng faction would definitely fall apart.
"How can we pass this easily? Commander Tang, the 32nd Brigade of your 29th Division surrendered without even firing a shot at Sea Mountain Pass.”
Yang Guanghui had brought up the past. Previously, this matter had been suppressed by Zhang Zhengzong, so Tang Erhu, the commander, had not been dismissed. Brigadier Tang Kaizhong was his cousin, but he had only been dismissed and not executed.
"Yang Guanghui, what do you mean?" Tang Erhu glared at Yang Guanghui. This bastard's words were too vicious. He wanted to slap him in the face.
"What do you two want? Martial arts?”Zhang Zhengzong was very satisfied with Yang Guanghui. No wonder this guy could become the Chief of Staff. He was really capable and knew what Zhang Zhengzong was thinking. It was because of his status that Zhang Zhengzong was not afraid of Zhang's former brothers. Unfortunately, he was pro-Japanese.
"Don't be so cocky." Tang Erhu sat down. His behavior also let Zhang Zhengzong know how arrogant and domineering his brothers were.
"Do you know what name they gave us when we entered the pass this time? My Old Zhang can afford to lose face, but what about you?”
Zhang Zhengzong glanced at the people below him. Other than Guo Yushu and Yang Guanghui, there were not many talents that could be used in the Feng family.
And these two capable people were also full of contradictions.
One was the Lu Shi faction, and the other was the martial arts faction. They were like fire and water. In history, Yang Guanghui played a big role in the rebellion of the devil Guo. He insisted on killing that Guo.
Although the time and space were different, the situation was similar for the main branch.
"Commander, this is because we weren't prepared. Also, it has something to do with the lack of troops. The soldiers have no fighting spirit, which led to the collapse of the troops.。”
As the chief of the Fengtian police, Wang Changjiang was able to attend the meeting because he was in charge of the logistics and transportation of the Feng army. He hated the vermin in the Feng army.
"Scholar Wang, I'm going to argue with you. Don't keep thinking about expanding the scope of attack. To put it bluntly, our Feng Jun is far inferior to the straight army.”Sun Sangou knew that he couldn't continue, or else everyone would be finished. Even Old Seven, the head of the Feng Faction, had his face trampled into foam by Wu Zihao.
Other than the 3rd Brigade, all the other troops had terrible results. If they had not blocked the main army's attack, the main army would have killed their way out of the pass. Would they still be in Fengtian?
Wu Zihao was a direct warlord. He was different from Old Zhang. He was not only good at using troops, but also had literary skills and military strategies. His military talent was second to none among the current military people. He was invincible wherever his troops pointed at, and was even more eye-catching. This was the most glorious period of his life. He defeated the Wan, Feng, and Jin factions. His direct family dominated the 49 City and the north, and almost controlled half of the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
This grand marshal's power had already reached its peak, attracting worldwide attention. He also had a certain reputation among the various countries. It was said that he was going to be elected as the Grand President and become the head of state.
In 1913, it even appeared on the cover of Time Magazine and was the focus of attention.
As for the defeated Feng lineage, they could only hide in the three northeastern provinces, like a caged tiger recuperating.
Everyone understood what Sun Sangou meant. It wasn't that our army was incompetent, but that the enemy was too cunning. After all, how many of you here could be more awesome than Wu Zihao?
Did he? No!
"Let's not talk about the 6th Regiment of the Direct Army, which is currently one of the best elite troops in the Northern Ocean, but what kind of troops are the 35th Regiment of the Direct Army? How can we defeat your brigade? Is this a joke?”
Zhang Zhengzong sat at the head of the table and watched as the people below shifted the blame to each other. In the end, the one who should be responsible was the previous Old Zhang. However, as the BOSS, he definitely could not be blamed.
In the battle at Tiger's Mouth, Feng Jun was attacked from both front and back. He lasted less than an hour and Feng Jun suddenly became a joke. The soldiers laughed at Feng Jun for being inferior to bandits.
If it wasn't for the 3rd Brigade saving Old Zhang's face, he wouldn't even be able to protect the pass.
"Shut up." Zhang Zhengzong had gone berserk, and the people below immediately fell silent. No matter what, Zhang Zhengzong was still the leader. He had the final say.
"In this battle, my Fengjun's reputation has been ruined. It is imperative to reorganize the military. I have decided to reform the military system.”Zhang Zhengzong was about to make a move on Old Zhang's brothers. He wasn't Old Zhang and didn't have any deep feelings for these brothers who fought with him.
If he couldn't keep up with the times, he would be abandoned by the times. It would be better to go home and be a landlord.
"Zong Shuai, please speak." Zhang Zhengchen supported his seventh brother unconditionally. He was honest and kind. Among his eight sworn brothers, he was second to none in terms of popularity, even higher than Zhang Zhengzong, the King of the Northeast.
A large group of people looked at Zhang Zhengzong. However, Zhang Zhengzong no longer had stage fright. As the King of the Northeast, if he couldn't even control his subordinates, then he shouldn't be the King of the Northeast.
"Our Feng army learned the military system of the Japanese army, but now it seems that it won't work. We've become completely different. Our weapons and equipment are the same as theirs.”Zhang Zhengzong didn't say it clearly. One was the ability of the generals present, and the other was that the quality of the soldiers was inferior to the Japanese soldiers.
Secondly, it was too serious for the troops to drink the blood of the soldiers. How could the soldiers who had no honor in their eyes fight for the territory of the old Zhang family?
