Chapter 324 Zhao Dongquan
No matter what era, it is very common for many families in interest groups to have extensive marriages. There are not only so-called door-to-door considerations, but also political interests.
In the contemporary Beiyang Soviet interest group, there are also many military and political high-level marriages to ensure the stability and expansion of political interests. For example, Xiong Xiling did not know where to find a niece and then married her to Zhao E's eldest son, such as Hong Putao, the head of the military's quartermaster department. The eldest daughter married Kong Guanbei, the commander of the Fifth Brigade.
However, the previous marriages within these Soviet interest groups were clear cultural relics. Basically, they were married between civil officials and civilian officials, and generals and generals were married. It is rarely said that there was a marriage between culture and martial arts.
There is also a reason. On the one hand, to be honest, the humanistic values between the two military and political terms are very different. Although many senior generals in the Soviet Feng army are from international students and landlord families, in fact, most of them are from middle and lower-class society, like Zhao Dongyun, who originally came from a big family. In fact, there are not many, many of them are children of poor families. As for the civil servants group, to be honest, although there is a saying that there is a cold window for ten years, in fact, in the political arena of the late Qing Dynasty, most of the powerful civil servants were from the upper class and most of them were scholars.
For example, many former Qing bureaucrats serving in Zhao Dongyun's republican government are basically from the traditional scholarly family. In fact, a considerable number of international students in the cabinet and various governments are self-funded. These days, if you want to study abroad at your own expense, it will cost at least 1,000 or even 2,000 or even 2,000 pounds. Such a large sum of money is not even for a rich family like the Li family in Jinzhou. Take it out.
Except for a few regimes, in fact, most of the senior officials in most regimes will come from that kind of upper-class society, and there are actually very few real poor children.
This has caused more people from the social background in the Soviet military and political system. Well, that is, the so-called social elite group in this era. After all, politics has always been a game that only social elites can afford. However, in the military world, although there are many officers from landlord families, they are basically small and medium-sized landlords, but the children of a truly prominent family will not be any big-headed soldiers.
Therefore, in terms of social origin alone, the group of military generals is far inferior to the civilian system. In addition, China has always had a tradition of attaching to literature over martial arts for thousands of years, so many civil servants who self-respect themselves are scholarly and disdain to marry those clay-legged officers.
In addition to family scenes, humanistic values, etc., it is also related to Zhao Dongyun's strict prevention of military and political collusion. Zhao Dongyun himself is a warlord, so he has been thinking about rebelling over the years, but on the other hand, he also prevents his subordinates from becoming warlords and causing his own rebellion.
This is from decentralizing many powers of the army to the various departments of the command department. It is strictly forbidden for all troops to privately recruit troops, purchase weapons, and officers to interfere in soldiers' salaries, etc. Even if they are captured enemy soldiers and firearms, the army cannot decide to supplement these prisoners and weapons on the spot, but has to go through the Ministry of Education and ordnance. Only after the distribution of the ministries and other command departments can they obtain the replenishment and ordnance supplement of these captured soldiers. Even if this procedure causes many systemic troubles, Zhao Dongyun would rather be troublesome and inefficient than open this door.
At the same time, he divided the place for the senior generals of the army, so he has always implemented a strict military and political separation policy. After the four major warlords in Beiyang rose up last year, the Feng army was blocked by the anti-Feng coalition and forced to return outside the customs. Zhao Dongyun set up in Tangshan and Shanhaiguan areas of Guannei. Meng Enyuan served as the commander of the Yuguan Defense Command. If this is placed in other warlord troops, Meng Enyuan will be able to become a small warlord in the Soviet system. But in fact, there is no, why? Because when Zhao Dongyun set up the Yuguan Defense Command, he also set up the Tangshan Administrative Office to manage the administrative affairs of Tangshan, Chengde and other jurisdictions in Guan.
At the beginning, Meng Enyuan did not have the power to intervene in government affairs.
The policy of military and political separation is particularly obvious after entering the customs. For example, Zhao Dongyun has never appointed any headquarters with a fixed defense zone. The generals of the army can basically only hold military positions, such as brigade commanders, division commanders, and military commanders, but there is no "mountains" like in other warlord systems. "Commander-in-Chief of Eastern Defense" and "Commander-in-Chief of Soviet Union Suppression of Bandits" and so on.
And after defeating the enemy's prefectures and counties, the military also rarely conducts officers except at specific moments, because the cabinet will send officials from local governments and counties to take office at the first time, and then the police department begins to set up police and patrol police to maintain local security. Basically, after defeating a city, it will have nothing to do with the military. Relationship.
After the long-term implementation of this policy of military-government separation, it has gradually evolved into a basic principle in the Soviet system. Many military and political dignitaries know that Zhao Dongyun does not like military and political dignitaries to hook up with each other, so for the sake of their own power and security, they also deliberately or unintentionally avoid other people.
Although Zhao Dongyun has never talked about the separation of military and politics, most people know Zhao Dongyun's attitude, which has led to the relatively clear separation of the two-time military and government in the Soviet Union. It is basically impossible for military generals to intervene in the local government, and the local government has basically maintained the military. Distance, even the labor force, and support the military logistics are actually very rare, because the military itself has a logistics supply system, which is interesting to say. The Feng army does not prohibit the front-line troops from collecting food and fodder on the spot when the supply is tight. Well, it is actually a robbery.
However, the field troops themselves are not allowed to have direct contact with the local government to ask for food and fodder. Even if the military logistics supply does not need local support in time, people from the Ministry of Munitions Department, the Ordnance Department and other departments will generally come forward to contact the local government, and the chief officer of the unit has been strictly forbidden to make various requests to the local government without permission. Made.
In this kind of big back, Jingxia, military and political dignitaries rarely marry each other. At least Fang Biyong has never heard of any recent marriage between senior military generals and cabinet members. Most of the marriages are between generals and generals, between officials and officials.
It's the same as Zhao Dongping and Gu Lanyu's sister!
Just to make Fang Biyong curious, Zhao Dongping is not only as simple as the head of the Ordnance Department. At the same time, he is also Zhao Dongyun's extremely reliable cousin. If Gu Lanyu's sister marries Zhao Dongping, won't he be in-laws with Zhao Dongyun?
Thinking of this, Fang Biyong only hates his unmarried sister. If he introduces him to Zhao Dongping or Zhao Dongyun's other cousins or younger brothers, wouldn't he be able to be in-laws with Zhao Dongyun?
I don't know how many people in contemporary China want to have an in-law relationship with Zhao Dongyun. Naturally, it is not possible for this daughter to marry Zhao Dongyun. Now it has become a republic, and monogamy is advocated, and even concubines can no longer be accepted. If it is to divorce and remarry, Zhao Dongyun, as the president of the Republic, is basically impossible to divorce and remarry for his own image needs.
What's more, Fang Ruolian and Zhao Dongyun have been married for many years. Although Li Wan has been inserted in the middle and experienced many years of infertility, this relationship is still harmonious. After Fang Ruolian successfully gave birth to a son in August this year, her status has become more stable.
For political reasons, even if Zhao Dongyun is tired of Fang Ruolian, he will never divorce Fang Ruolian. To put it rudely, no one can take away the throne of the president's wife under Fang Ruolian's buttocks, even if she wants to give up.
Otherwise, Li Wan didn't expect Zhao Dongyun to divorce in the early years, but now, Li Wan has given up her own heart. In recent years, she has raised her little daughter at ease.
Don't even think about marrying Zhao Dongyun's family's family. As for giving Zhao Dongyun as a mistress in private, to be honest, ordinary people don't have the courage to do this kind of thing. Except for Li San, a person who is almost a slave can do this, others really dare not, unless they intend to position themselves as a favorite minister.
However, he also heard that Zhao Dongyun's younger brother Zhao Dongquan had just returned from Japan a few days ago. Although Zhao Dongquan was not young, he knew that he was not married yet.
Why don't you learn from a few other people, and then the third daughter of the second uncle's family come out to meet Zhao Dongyun? If it can be achieved, wouldn't it be possible to directly climb into a marriage relationship with Zhao Dongyun!
Thinking of this, Fang Biyong's mind is lively. Although he does not have a suitable age-appropriate sister, he has several unmarried cousins of the right age. At that time, let the family call those cousins to have a look first. If there is a suitable one, he might as well create some opportunities!
When Fang Biyong had many ideas in his heart, Zhao Dongquan, who was plotted to marry, was sitting in front of Zhao Dongyun in the reception room behind the banquet hall.
Zhao Dongquan, Zhao Dongyun's younger brother, is one year younger than Zhao Dongyun. He studied in a private school in his early years. He also studied four books and five classics in his childhood and adolescence. He also tried the road of fame, but he has never been admitted to Xiucai. In 1900, Zhao Dongyun returned from Germany and then returned to the Wuwei Right Army to serve. During this period, he returned to his hometown in Xuzhou to visit his mother. At the same time, he picked up his younger brother from home and sent him to Japan to study abroad. At that time, Zhao Dongzhi was also passed by Zhao Dongzhi.
After studying in a language school, Zhao Dongquan was admitted to a local middle school in Japan. After studying hard for several years, he tried to apply for the entrance examination of Lushi in Japan. However, the entrance examination of the contemporary Lushi was very fierce. In addition, he was not an official, so he failed to pass the exam. Finally, he was admitted to the private Waseda University. He studied for several years and successfully graduated and returned to China this year.
Zhao Dongquan has been studying in Japan for six years, but Zhao Dongyun has been studying in Germany for a long time. After living abroad for a long time, it is easy to see from them that he has a different temperament from ordinary Chinese.
