"Doctor, how is it?"
"Commander Zhang, your son's body is fine. This is a miracle. His body seems to be stronger than ordinary people!!”
Zhang Yuting also gave the doctor a few bucks and let him go. Zhang Hanze, who stayed where he was, smiled gently. His body had been injected with a beginner gene serum. Compared to ordinary people, it was still strong enough.
"Brat, you're lucky. Otherwise, if you were so sickly all day, I wouldn't have anyone to lead the 27th division!”
Zhang Yuting patted his son's shoulder. He was naturally very happy. Now that the overall situation in Fengtian had been settled, he would be able to take up the position of Fengtian Province's Military Governor after the official appointment from Beiyang.
...............................................................................................................
After dinner, Zhang Han entered his father's study room for the first time. He had something to tell his father for the sake of the 27th Division and the future of the Zhang family.
"Father…"
"Why aren't you sleeping?"
Zhang Yuting was also a little curious and surprised. His son was a little different at dinner, especially when it came to how he treated people. Even Zhang Yuting was secretly surprised. He knew his bad temper. Sometimes, he was too impatient with his subordinates.
But today, this brat was really full of tricks when he spoke.
"Father, do you have a map of our northeast?”
"Of course. Your father loves looking at maps.”
The area where the Plaster Medicine Flag was located was all Fusang territory, including the Guandong region. The Guandong region meant the east of Shanhaiguan. In 1899, the Russians signed a land lease treaty with the Manchurian Qing Dynasty. After the Russo-Japanese War broke out, the Russians were defeated, and the Guandong region was under the rule of Fusang and became a colony.
At the same time, they signed the Portsmouth Agreement, which allowed Fusang to control all the rights and interests of the Middle East railway from Spring City in Ji Province to the Guandong State, which was also the so-called South Manchurian railway, as well as all the branch railway, including coal mines. At the same time, they allowed fifteen soldiers to be stationed along the railway every kilometer. Then, Fusang obtained the right to build the railway from Andong to Fengtian and opened up sixteen regions in the northeast as commercial ports.
The penetration of Fusang in the northeast was now fully displayed in front of Zhang Hanze for the first time. It had to be said that the heavy feeling of history made his expression a little serious.
Just beside the Huanggutun train station in Fengtian City, there were troops stationed by the Fusang people...
There were countless Fusang people in Fusang City.
The road to the rise of Fengtian had a long way to go.
It was obviously unrealistic to want to develop national industries in Fengtian. Perhaps the Japanese would find out about what happened in the morning in the afternoon. Therefore, Zhang Hanze also cast his gaze to Yingkou, a small county 150 kilometers southeast of Fengtian. It was close to the sea and surrounded by mountains. Most importantly, there was no railway connecting it, so Fusang did not have many troops stationed in this area.
The significance of the railway in this era was too great. Whether it was iron ore or the transportation of military forces, they all needed to go through the railway. Although Fusang was an industrial country, its strength was limited after all. The forces invested in the northeast were basically arranged along the railway, such as coal mines, iron ore mines, textile factories...
Yingkou was an area with poor traffic, so even Fusang people would probably not like it.
"Father, I think we can continue to rope in Feng Delin's 28th Division…"
Zhang Yuting was shocked and stood up. This kid was really strange today. In the past, he would never tell him about these things. Zhang Han was the eldest son of the family and also Zhang Yuting's most beloved son.
However, this kid had only known how to shut himself up and study. As for leading troops to war and scheming for benefits, he had never thought of learning. Zhang Yuting did not want to interfere too much, but it was different now. He had already become the military governor of Fengtian Province. The future of the Zhang family would not be as simple as it was now.
Zhang Yuting's ambition grew with the position of Fengtian Military Governor. He started as a horse bandit and walked step by step to this position. He knew better than anyone that the northeast was filled with regions than anywhere else. Whether it was Beiyang, Fusang, or the polar bears, they were all competing with each other in this place.
He had also witnessed the war between Japan and Russia. In the northeast, the people were miserable. A large number of people were displaced. The country was weak, and the industry was weak. They could only be bullied. Therefore, the northeast could only be occupied by the foreign powers. A large amount of resources were transported out by train.
If the northeast wanted to revive, it had to build an industry and an army. Zhang Yuting was convinced.
"Father, Feng Delin's 28th Division is still an infantry division under the Beiyang system. If we can use an army of more than 10,000 people, then no matter what, Beiyang will have to consider the military strength of the 27th and 28th Division.”
" The second point is the fear of Fusang. If there are two infantry divisions, once we have a conflict with Fusang, the 28th division can also provide support. However, there is one thing that we must guarantee. I'm afraid that Feng Delin already holds a grudge against Duan Zhigui. Why don't you step in and let the young master of the Feng family enter Fengtian? We can open an academy and accept all the children of the higher-ups in Fengtian.”
Zhang Yuting's eyes lit up, and he approached Zhang Hanze. Opening an academy was a brilliant move. As the elders, they naturally wanted to nurture the children of the second generation of the army well. Outside the pass, only Fengtian City had the capital to do so.
"Good boy, it seems that your years of study have not been in vain. I was just looking for some good teachers so that you little brats can learn how to fight.”
"Hanze, you've finally grown up.”
Zhang Han didn't care about the so-called academy. He didn't want to waste his time on that matter. Moreover, these second-generation soldiers were all teenagers. With his current understanding, it was really child's play to be with them.
"Father, the second generation of the army who controls the 28th and 27th divisions will be able to win the hearts of the people step by step. At that time, even if Feng Delin wants to rebel, it will be impossible.”
"But I have to say this first. I hope that father can give me a company of soldiers. A few days ago, I had a friend who came back from abroad and got me a lot of things.”
Then, Zhang Han passed a design blueprint to Zhang Yuting. On the blueprint, there were many lines and frames. It seemed to be an extremely exquisite tool.
Zhang Yuting's eyes narrowed. Then, he carefully locked all the doors and windows. His breathing was rapid.
"Maxim Heavy Machine Gun Design Blueprint?？”
"Hanze, where did this thing come from?？”
" It's a friend of mine who's studying in Germany…"
Zhang Yuting was also skeptical. This kid had always lived in seclusion. How could he have friends who studied abroad? However, there seemed to be no other explanation for such an expensive item.
"Father, you also know that all the firearms and bullets of our 27th Division are purchased from the foreign powers or are waiting to be distributed by the Northern Warlords. Not only are they expensive, but they are also controlled by others. If we can control the production of firearms, let alone one division, we can even arm three divisions.”
"It is obviously unrealistic to build a military factory in Fengtian. Not only are there spies in Beiyang, but there are also spies in Fusang. These will become obstacles, so I want to pull it to Yingkou. Although the traffic there is inconvenient, it is at least safe.”
" Once the military industry takes shape and the 27th Division has the strength to fight, we can naturally move the military industry to Fengtian. Father, time waits for no man. I want to leave tomorrow.”
