Although Zhang Zuolin did not know a few words, he was able to change from an inconspicuous little person to a "King of the Northeast" who controlled the land of several provinces and became the last family member of the Beiyang government, and his mind, vision, and ability could be described as rare at the time.
For the use of people together, Zhang Zuolin is even more old and spicy.
Yang Yuting, at the instigation of Xu Shuzheng, tried to develop his own power with the help of the Feng clan, and after this matter was known to Zhang Zuolin, he suppressed him for a period of time.
Subsequently, Zhang Zuolin regretted his talent, so he used Yang Yuting again and introduced him as a confidant, letting him give advice for himself, and Yang did not dare to regenerate his dissent.
In addition to Zhang Zuolin's boldness, the most important thing that Zhang Xueliang lacks is his mind and this way of employing people, otherwise, Zhang Shaoshuai would not have to set up a "Hongmen Banquet" to eradicate Yang Yuting.
Without Guo Songling and without Yang Yuting, what did Zhang Shaoshuai take to support the scene of the Northeast Army? It can only be controlled by Chiang Kai-shek.
Okay, back to the point.
One of Zhang Zuolin's subordinates, Han Linchun, was ordered to buy arms, but the arms were not bought, but the money used to buy arms was lost, so why did the old marshal not only not get angry, but gave 1 million yuan?
This subordinate was Han Linchun, one of the "Five Tiger Generals" of the Feng clan, who had been appreciated by Zhang Zuolin since he joined the Feng Army in 1922 and was appointed as the general office of the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces, and together with Yang Yuting managed and operated the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces.
In 1923, in order to continue to expand his strength and strive to be able to serve the shame of war for the first time as soon as possible, Zhang Zuolin let Han Linchun go south to Shanghai to buy arms.
Therefore, Han Linchun took 500,000 silver dollars to Shanghai, which is known as the "Ten Mile Ocean Field".
For Shanghai, Han Linchun has longed for it, but because he has been busy with military affairs, Shanghai is far away from Fengtian, which has not been able to take the time to come to Shanghai to visit and experience the bustling scenery of this ten-mile ocean field.
Eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, poisoning, What Han Linchun could think of, or what he couldn't imagine, Shanghai had it all, so as soon as he entered Shanghai, he was fascinated and couldn't open his eyes.
He had another 500,000 silver dollars in his pocket, and there was nothing he couldn't afford to play.
However, Han Linchun played too much for a while, although he was holding 500,000 silver dollars, but after all, it was not his own! Shanghai casinos are everywhere, if you can take this 500,000 to gamble and make money, it is your own money.
Therefore, Han Linchun's heart was crossed, and he gambled money, and the result was a loss.
Han Linchun lost all the 500,000 yuan used to buy arms, so there was no way to buy arms, he didn't buy arms, how could he go back and make friends with Zhang Zuolin?
He thought about it and finally decided to tell Zhang Zuolin the truth, called Zhang Zuolin, and told Zhang Zuolin every word and deed he said in Shanghai.
He had already prepared Zhang Zuolin to scold him and let him return to Fengtian to accept punishment, but who knew that after Zhang Zuolin listened, he was only silent for a few seconds, and then after scolding, he did not hesitate to say to him, if you lose, you will lose, I will give you another 1 million!
Why did Zhang Zuolin give Han Linchun 1 million?
The budget for the purchase of arms is 500,000 yuan, and the reason why Zhang Zuolin gave 1 million yuan is to be able to purchase arms smoothly, after all, he is still in a hurry to use it! After buying the arms, there are still 500,000 left, and didn't Han Linchun lose 500,000? Then let him take the 500,000 he gave birth to and gamble again, and win back the money he lost.
When Han Linchun heard this, his heart was immediately moved, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt ashamed of Zhang Zuolin.
However, he did want to get back on the field, so he gambled with 500,000 yuan, and the result was really unexpected by everyone - he actually won back with profits.
Han Linchun successfully bought the arms and found a place at the gambling table, so he happily returned to Fengtian to make a business trip.
Although Zhang Zuolin said that he would let Han Linchun take the extra 500,000 yuan and gamble again and win the money back, did he really care whether Han Linchun could win?
In fact, if han Linchun let him gamble again, whether he won or lost, Zhang Zuolin didn't care at all.
The reason why Zhang Zuolin did this was nothing more than to tell Han Linchun that he didn't mind Han Linchun's momentary mistakes, nor did he mind that Han Linchun lost money, and he cared more about Han Linchun as a person.
Han Linchun's timely frankness did not delay the purchase of arms, and also let Zhang Zuolin see that Han Linchun was not only a talent that could be created, but also a credible talent!
Therefore, exchanging two 500,000 yuan for the loyalty of a talentable and credible talent is definitely a good deal for Zhang Zuolin, why not enjoy it?
Zhang Zuolin used the trick of buying people's hearts and minds, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
Han Linchun has also always been grateful for Zhang Zuolin's trust and importance, for his birth and death, he became a rare tiger general in the Feng clan, and in 1925, when Guo Songling rebelled against the feng, he also made a sweaty contribution to Feng Zhang.
On the understanding of people, the use of people, the young marshal is far from the old marshal.
