Zhang Zhengzong emphasized a few words, which was that the people below must not rot to death. If there were any problems, they could directly settle the score with him. This was because the officials at the county level were all under Lin Shumeng's control. Without his approval, those people could not take up their posts.
He couldn't run away from this responsibility, so in order to secure his position, Lin Shumeng would definitely have to deal with it. This civil servant's internal strife was much darker than a battle between martial artists.
Lin Shumeng could imagine that after he stepped down, the Lin family would definitely decline rapidly and be swallowed by others.
Ji Province was a big province, but its population was not as large as Fengtian Province. It had many mines, and the Japanese had many companies here.
After passing through Ji Province, it would be Mao Xiong's sphere of influence.
The vast and sparsely populated three eastern provinces required a large number of cavalry. It could be said that the cavalry of this period, other than the three horses in the northwest, was the most powerful.
The Feng army originally had three cavalry divisions, but Zhang Zhengzong cut off two of them. The maintenance cost of the cavalry division was too high, and the cost-effectiveness ratio was too low.
Even so, each division had a cavalry regiment. This was called having a policy and a countermeasure.
Furious Bears Division also had a Cossack Cavalry Regiment under the command of Black Province Governor Wu Bin.
Even if Marshal Zhang was going to marry a concubine, the wedding had to be lively and lively, so that the bride could get married in a grand manner.
However, other than the high officials of Fengtian City, the other high-ranking officials did not come. They only gave out congratulatory gifts.
It wasn't that they didn't want to come, but that Zhang Zhengzong had instructed them to focus on their work or raiding the bandits.
The ingredients that the marshal's residence needed these few days were massive. They had already asked someone to collect them from the fields outside the city and send them to the marshal's residence.
The pigs, sheep, and cows were all killed and cooked on the spot. The marshal's residence had also hired many cooks. Even so, the safety work was not neglected. It was simply the marshal's residence on the tip of the tongue.
Ma Shan was even busier than Zhang Zhengzong, the groom. He probably didn't even have time to attend the banquet. He had to keep an eye on the Japanese all day long. If there was a problem with the marshal's wedding, his position as president would be over.
The 27th Division and the Guards Brigade had entered the city to maintain order with the Fengtian Police Station. Many of the vantage points were occupied by soldiers, and there were many plainclothes in the crowd. It was definitely not a good choice for the Japanese to assassinate Zhang Zhengzong.
Groups of soldiers used their bodies to form a human wall.
Although they were a little tired, the soldiers were very happy. What was this?
This was an honor. Ordinary people didn't have the chance to do so.
It could be said that Fengtian City was empty today. It would be good enough for the Japanese spy to squeeze in, let alone assassinate Zhang Zhengzong.
Over a thousand cavalrymen were carrying countless banners and banners. Zhang Zhengzong was riding a blue-maned horse, dressed in an old-fashioned formal suit covered in golden threads. His left and right epaulets were tasseled, and he wore a large white ribbon with golden parallel bars. His golden helmet was slightly pointed, and there were some red tassels hanging at the top. If it were not for the weather, he would have had to put on a cloak.
There were a lot of people in this wedding procession. There were three military bands alone, and they took turns to play. Fengtian City had not been so lively for many years.
With such a grand display, the Qin family's reputation was sky-high. Even when Xiao Zhang married his wife, he did not receive such treatment. As for Old Zhang's wives, they could forget about it.
Zhang Zhengzong greeted the commoners on the roadside from time to time, especially the children. Occasionally, he would even wink at them and tease them.
In the entire team, Zhang Zhengzong was the most eye-catching. With his attire, he could be seen from a few hundred meters away.
Behind them was the bridal sedan chair. It was a proper eight-lift sedan chair. There were sixteen sedan bearers. Of course, there could be people to replace them. After all, it was so far away.
He had originally wanted to choose a carriage, but in the end, he had changed it to a bridal sedan chair. At least he respected the tradition.
"Look at everyone's envious eyes. As expected, which girl in the three eastern provinces doesn't want to marry into the marshal's manor and enjoy the glory and wealth? However, the few madams in this manor might not be happy!”Shun Zi sighed. His warhorse was half a horse behind Zhang Zhengzong. At such a close distance, Zhang Zhengzong could naturally hear what he said.
Zhang Zhengzong was still very happy on his wedding day. Not counting Old Zhang in his previous life, he had never married a wife in his future life. In a sense, this Qin Yu could be considered his first "wife".
That was why it was so grand.
Just the number of people who had mobilized the army alone had reached more than 20,000. There were even more residents who came to watch. The number was countless. The old Qin family had prospered this time. Everyone said so.
As for the old man and young wife, Zhang Zhengzong could ignore them. After shaving his beard, Zhang Zhengzong didn't think that Old Zhang's body would be that old.
"Do I need to care?"
Shun Zi smiled bitterly. It seemed that there was really no need for that, because who was the marshal? He was the master of Old Zhang's family, the leader of the three eastern provinces. Not to mention here, even in the whole country, he was also a well-known figure.
At this moment, his reputation was at its peak.
After walking around for more than an hour, they finally arrived at the marshal's residence. Ma Shan was holding a pair of binoculars and looking around. His men had already held down many suspects. They would rather kill the wrong person than let them go.
If he caught the wrong person, he could just let them go later.
Just as Ma Shan had thought, the Japanese had initially planned to assassinate Zhang Zhengzong and turn the Zhang family's happy event into a funeral. However, they realized that it was just a fantasy. With such a strong security force, not to mention taking out their guns, even if they looked around a few times, they would attract many plainclothes clothes.
Firecrackers had already been set off in the marshal's manor. The accompanying cavalry did not enter the manor. Only the military band entered.
This ceremony was very troublesome, but the Zhang family still came out.
The two daughters were looking at their new mother. Her father was good in everything except for being a little lecherous.
However, it had to be said that he looked really good dressed like this. He was getting married in a handsome outfit.
There were naturally many guests, and there were too many people who wanted to curry favor with Zhang Zhengzong.
Especially those capitalists. They were like sharks that had smelled blood. They wanted nothing more than to bite off a few pieces of Zhang Zhengzong's flesh and have a good meal.
The gold that spilled out from the King of the Northeast's fingers was enough for them to make a fortune.
The wedding banquet had started early. Because there were too many people, all the dishes were hard dishes. Old Zhang's family was rich, so they definitely wouldn't cut corners on the food. The chefs were all famous chefs.
The neat team of maids and the hundreds of people serving the dishes shocked many people. The uniform was the same. The rumors outside said that Marshal Zhang had changed his personality. Now it seemed that it was true. He had become more westernized and liked the fashionable clothes of foreigners.
This maid outfit was obviously foreign and definitely not a proper costume.
The people sitting here were all important figures in Fengtian. Zhang Zhengzong was sitting at the head of the table. He had long thrown the heavy golden helmet to the side. The weight of several kilograms was pressing down on him, causing his waist disc to almost pop out.
Zhang Zhengzong raised his cup and said," Let me say this first. It's not that I don't want to give you face, but I'm afraid that you'll force me to drink. I won't drink too much of this wine. I have to do business tonight."”
"Hahaha, Seventh Brother, Eighth Brother, I wish you this day every year. I wish you this day every year.”
"You're a straightforward person and your words are nice. However, we still have to attend the morning court session. No one is allowed to be late for the meeting the day after tomorrow.”Zhang Zhengzong also laughed loudly. This Eighth Brother wasn't bad.
Although his level of diction was not good, it was indeed not bad.
Even though he said that, Zhang Zhengzong still drank a lot in the end. This was the way of the world. It was impossible to avoid it. The higher one's position was, the more one had to protect their prestige and image.
However, he still had the ability to do so. After all, today was a good day.
