Yang Yuting is a native of the northeast and has been very smart since childhood. A year before the Xinhai Revolution, he graduated from the Japanese Army Non-Commissioned Officer School. He talked to Xu Shuzheng, the little fan military master, and Xu Shuzheng had no one in sight, but he admired this classmate very much.
The little Zhuge of the warlord
After Yang Yuting returned to China, he served as an aide-de-camp of the Army of the Three Eastern Provinces, and after the Xinhai Revolution, he became Zhang Zuolin's adviser on the recommendation of Xu Shuzheng. In 1916, Yuan Shikai claimed that the emperor had failed, Zhang Zuolin wanted to drive out Duan Zhigui sent by Yuan Shikai, Yang Yuting secretly plotted, united with Feng Delin, and drove away Duan Zhigui, and Zhang Zuolin became the overseer of Fengtian Province as he wished.
Zhang Zuolin relied more heavily on Yang Yuting and directly promoted him to chief of staff and chief of staff of the Fengtian Overseer's Office.
In 1917, when the direct and Anhui clans were fighting in Beijing, Yang Yuting took the opportunity to join forces with Xu Shuzheng to Go to Qinhuangdao to directly rob Feng Guobu's staff of the head-moving technique of a batch of cattle, which was the famous "Qinhuangdao amputation" incident in the history of the Republic of China. This batch of equipment is first-class good equipment that Feng Guozhang bought with foreign loans. Zhang Zuolin switched shotguns for cannons, armed seven brigades in one go, and the Fengzhi warlords became the third largest force in the Beiyang Warlord Club.
All this is the work of Yang Yuting. In 1922, the First Zhifeng War broke out, and due to the lack of training of the Feng army and the incompetence of middle and senior generals, it led to a total rout and withdrew to Guanwai.
When the Feng army reached the critical juncture of life and death, Zhang Zuolin used Yang Yuting to establish the Army Finishing Office of the Three Eastern Provinces, and Yang Yuting served as the actual person in charge of the Finishing Office. Under his tutelage, Fengjun dismissed a large number of officers from the green forest, appointed a large number of new-style talents, and adopted foreign methods to train soldiers. A large number of new generals began to play an important role, such as Han Linchun, Jiang Dengxuan, Li Jinglin, Guo Songling and others were reused, and these four people, together with Zhang Zongchang, were once known as the Five Tiger Generals of the Feng Army.
In 1924, the second Zhifeng War broke out, the Feng clan attacked the Shanhaiguan and Shimenguan fortresses in one fell swoop, coupled with the defection of Feng Yuxiang of the direct lineage, Wu Peifu was defeated and fled back to Wuhan, Zhang Zuolin waved his division into the customs, taking advantage of the situation to seize half of China.
From the three northeastern provinces to Shanghai and Jiangsu, it has become the world of Fengshi. The victory in this war was the peak of Feng's family, and it was also the peak of Zhang Zuolin's favor for Yang Yuting.
The apex of life is often the beginning of depression. Not long after Yang Yuting served as the overseer of Jiangsu, he was driven away and lost his territory in Jiangsu. Guo Songling's rebellious actions also seriously injured Feng Jun's vitality. Yang Yuting, a generalist in management and diplomacy, has excellent management and diplomatic skills. His first big job in the northeast was to serve as the inspector of the arsenal in the three eastern provinces. When he first arrived, the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces was still a small factory, far inferior to the Gongxian Arsenal and the Taiyuan Arsenal. However, under the rectification of Yang Yuting, the arsenals in the three eastern provinces once became the largest and most complete arsenals in the country, with not only Chinese technicians, but also many foreign engineers. In 1928, there were already 20,000 people and 8,000 machines. This arsenal has an annual output of more than 60,000 guns and 150 large-caliber artillery pieces, and after the "918" incident, there were about 500,000 guns that fell into the hands of the Japanese army alone, which shows the strength of its production capacity. And this factory from small to large is Yang Yuting's single-handed management.
What is even more rare is that Yang Yuting graduated from the Japanese Army Non-Commissioned Officer School, has a lot of understanding of Japan's internal affairs, political circles, and automobile circles, and is also a good hand in Japanese diplomacy. Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the situation and status of Northeast China have been relatively special, sandwiched between Japan and Russia, and both countries have been eyeing the Northeast Tiger. How to maintain the balance of power between the two countries, and maintain integrity and independence, this is a big problem that tests the political circles in northeast China. Zhang Zuolin's method was to tie up with Japan, keep paying the account on credit, promising economic benefits to Japan, and gaining Japan's economic and political support. Every day the skill or the Japanese minister forced Zhang Zuolin to be anxious, they all pushed to find Yang Yuting, Yang Yuting then separated things to do, slowly to do, for a long time, the Japanese did not get anything cheap from Zhang Zuolin and Yang Yuting.com.
Jiang Tingdian, a scholar of the Republic of China, went to the northeast to study and investigate, and got to know Yang Yuting. Yang Yuting's policy statement on Japan was recorded. He believes that Tohoku's established policy is to avoid open conflict with Japan, and he allows Japan to benefit from its business start-up in order to make faster progress than Japan. "Chinese is getting more and more day by day, and we can't oppose us running education in the northeast and creating Chinese schools." At the very least, Japan cannot oppose our development of agriculture. In many respects, the interests of China and Japan are parallel. Your compatriots in Kannai have no power to give us military assistance, nor do they have to prompt us to openly clash with Japan. ”
This past recorded by true data is enough to prove that Yang Yuting is sober and clever in his diplomacy with Japan.
