Zhang Fuxiao's team has been decided, and the next difficult one is Zhang Xinglu.
Zhang Xinglu is not someone who is willing to take advantage of others, but there are differences between him and Zhang Liming.
If he wants to take people away from the Zhang family, the younger generation will naturally be willing to follow him, but there are two or three generations above him, and those old guys will not agree to anything.
The old man refused to leave, and the nephews could not be disobedient and unfilial, so things came to a standstill.
Later, Zhang Longchang came to him again and again, begging him to stay, which was enough to give him face.
The two of them have always had a good relationship. Zhang Longchang has admired him since he was a child and has a good talent in martial arts. As adults, the two have often exchanged ideas.
Although Zhang Longchang has always been inferior to him, he also admires this motivated young man.
This kid also gave him enough steps, saying that he only rose to the position to balance the relationship between the branches.
Zhang Longchang also made it clear that Brother Xinglu was indeed very capable, but he was reclusive and had the same relationship with several tribesmen.
In order to bring peace to the Zhang family, this middle way was adopted. It was not because Brother Xinglu was not as capable as him.
Zhang Xinglu thought the same thing in his heart, saying that if he wasn't good enough, he could beat the crap out of others.
But if you say he has a short temper and can't tolerate criticism, he himself has no way to argue with it.
The Zhang family is not just a few people. Those who are capable naturally want to find a strong person to lead them. He can also understand those losers who are willing to choose someone who is honest and easy to bully.
After a few days of back and forth, Zhang Longchang found some brothers who had good relationships with him to persuade him, and finally stabilized Zhang Xinglu.
Although this transition was difficult, the result was good. Without Zhang Fuxiao and more than a hundred people, the Zhang family was not hurt at all.
Coupled with the recipes and supplies left by Zuer, it is only a matter of time before he can regain his strength.
Things did go as they thought. After Zhang Fuxiao left, Zhang Longchang came to power. Ordinary tribesmen had no objections when they heard that the saint was the one who stayed.
Zhang Longchang took up the position of patriarch.
He has a gentle temper and is not the kind of headstrong person. He accepted the suggestions left by Zuer and established a small council.
The internal affairs are handled by Zhang Jinyuan, and the deployment and lurking are handled by Zhang Jinzhou.
Zhang Xinglu relied on Zhang Xinglu to train the children of the clan to practice martial arts and engage in some activities of killing people and selling goods.
Zhang Xinglu was even given the title of head coach of the Zhang family.
All the disciples who practiced martial arts in the clan would respectfully call Zhang Xinglu master martial arts when they saw him, which finally put his resentment aside.
The Presbyterian Council saw that although he was young, he knew how to use people well, and gradually delegated his power.
The Zhang family steadily developed better and better, and it took nearly four years to finally control the military power outside Shanhaiguan.
Unknowingly, the officers of the Feng Faction gradually had the shadow of the Zhang family.
In the rich and prosperous place within the pass, various bureaucrats are still fighting to the death.
This place, known as a bitter cold land in the Jiangnan water town, is becoming more and more prosperous.
After the Zhang family came to power militarily, they gradually began to control the gold mining land. The Han family in the Jiapi Gou gold mine and the Li family in the Mohe gold mine were uprooted by them.
The gold was transported to the customs in exchange for batches of grain and stored.
Everything is going on in a subtle way, controlling the newspapers and public opinion without revealing anything.
While places like Peking, Nanjing, and Shanghai are bustling with activity every day, this black land has been quietly making a fortune.
It wasn't until Xiao Baga picked up the ousted emperor from Tianjin Wei and planned to come to the three eastern provinces to establish the puppet Manchukuo that the generals of the provinces knew that there was such a fierce tiger of the Zhang family outside the customs.
In the past, the Central Plains region only knew that the Fengtian Army outside the customs used gold to buy some food and cloth, but never spent a lot of money to purchase guns and ammunition.
Many warlords are laughing at their short-sightedness. They only know how to raise troops but not how to increase weapons.
No matter how strong those soldiers are, how many people can be killed with a big sword?
That is to say, the place was too bitter and cold and they couldn't spare any time, so they would have gone and robbed it early.
Now Little Japan's march has allowed them to see that they have no shortage of guns and ammunition.
The Japanese pirates spent a lot of money on this land of Longxing, and they just gathered an army of tens of thousands of people and brought enough weapons.
Unexpectedly, thousands of people went but no one came back. They all became fertilizer for the black soil.
This result shocked all the warlords, and they nervously began to recruit troops and stock up on food in preparation for war.
Unexpectedly, Fengjun suddenly fell silent. As soon as the gate of Shanhaiguan was closed, he had no intention of attacking others.
The national army also sent people to recruit people to surrender, and even lowered their posture to talk about cooperation, but they were still dragged back.
The Fengtian Army does not make friends with anyone, nor does it make enemies with anyone. I will not accept recruitment from anyone, and I will not attack anyone.
Build high walls, hoard food, don't call yourself a king, just live your life behind closed doors.
However, their soldiers are all in good shape, and even the common people are not as skinny as in other places. They are obviously living a pretty good life.
Although the area outside the Pass has always been known as a bitterly cold place, the land is fertile and the food production is not low.
The Fengtian Army's taxes were not heavy, which attracted many refugees fleeing famine.
There has always been a vast area with sparsely populated areas and no lack of wasteland, as long as the winter has not passed.
If you are diligent and willing to clear a piece of land before sowing seeds, your family can always survive.
If it were in peaceful times, begging for food in the Jiangnan area would be better than those days.
But now that there is war, a place like this is a rare and good place for the people.
Because of Zuer's relationship, Zhang Jinyuan's family has been living a good life, and Zhang Xingyue has also been reused by Zhang Longchang.
Zhang Qishan was born in the clan and did not receive unfair treatment because of his status as Qiongqi. He trained in martial arts with the children of the clan.
Because of his good martial arts aptitude, he also gained the respect of Zhang Xinglu and became the king of children among his peers.
Apart from reciting sutras every day since I could speak, my life was quite carefree.
He also often heard his father mention that he was able to grow up safely in the clan thanks to the saint he had never met.
Zhang Qishan always felt that the name Zhang Zuer was very familiar, and even occasionally a girl whose face he could not see would appear in his dreams. He remembered calling her little aunt.
Unfortunately, this dream was so bizarre that he forgot about it after waking up.
As the younger generation gradually grows up, the Zhang family is also undergoing earth-shaking changes.
Zhang Ruisong's character is still out of touch, and he doesn't have much ambition. He prefers to travel around the world to collect intelligence for the Zhang family.
However, Zhang Qishan showed amazing military talent and ambition, and immediately joined the army for training after being released into the wild.
In this life, he has no chance to go to Changsha to become the Buddha Zhang, the leader of the nine sects, but he still has the title of Buddha.
This title is truly well deserved. After all, there are very few warlords in the country who wear Buddhist beads and knock wooden fish.
At the age of 26, Zhang Qishan took over the important task of being the leader of the Fengtian Army, and his reputation as a Buddha spread throughout the military and political circles.
Warlords from all departments knew that Marshal Zhang, who served in the army, was known as an encyclopedia of Buddhist scriptures and could recite any scripture.
There are also rumors that his wife was saved from having a difficult childbirth by reciting the "Blood Basin Sutra", and it was effective.
Zhang Qishan was so angry when he heard those rumors that he smashed a wooden fish into pieces. He didn't like chanting sutras, it was all the fault of the saint.
His father is also true. When I was a child, I watched him read, and he was already a commander and his adjutant looked at him. It was really annoying!
After Zhang Qishan took over, the Zhang family began to retreat again.
The inner sect Qilin protects the Zhang family's heritage and secretly stirs up the situation in the world.
Zhang Qishan, the Qiongqi King, led the outstanding outer disciples of the Zhang family to operate in the dark and became a major warlord in a separatist regime.
Until the establishment of the Dinghua Kingdom, the Zhang family had been operating in a low-key manner like other dynasties before.
It's just that they have an internal list recording the detailed information of foreigners with pseudonyms.
There are officials, soldiers, scholars and professors, as well as wealthy businessmen, artists, and literary giants.
These seemingly unrelated people are secretly using their own power to protect the Zhang family's secrets from being discovered.
The Zhang family land, which seems to be no different from other small mountain villages, has given birth to countless wonderful and talented people.
However, whether the development here is good or bad has nothing to do with Zuer.
Even if the Zhang family here unified the world and granted him the title of Protector of the Country, he would still not be able to escape the fate of having her ears pulled.
