Luo Erhu has always been a general under him. When he first arrived in Meishan Town, he was asked to serve as the captain of the special forces. He and he raided Huaikan Town at night and raided the Gong family. Later, he served as squadron leader, brigade captain, etc. of the gendarmerie, and was responsible for coal and Guangzhou.

He is responsible for military discipline, counter-insurgency, anti-corruption, internal security and other important responsibilities in the autonomous region. Only this year he was transferred to Huguang to command the troops.

The Huguang Bidding Group is an old formation of the Sixth Bidding Group of the Zhejiang New Army, and it is also one of the most powerful troops under Chen Tianhua. Putting Luo Erhu in Huguang has Chen Tianhua's profound meaning. I believe Luo Erhu can understand it now.

The current economic value and strategic significance of Huguang is the same as that of Ganzhou, Jiangxi. It is the two ends of a dumbbell guarding the Yangtze River fortress. I am afraid that only Chen Tianhua himself understands its far-reaching significance.

Because he knows very well what will happen to the Huguang area, especially the Wuchang New Army, in a few years?

In addition to the steel plant, the most important place in Hanyang is the Hanyang Arsenal. Privately, Chen Tianhua was wary of the revolutionaries, fearing that they had already planned to seize the arsenal.

Huoshan must be used but also defended!

Walking into Luo Erhu's Chinese army camp, wine and food had already been prepared inside. Luo Erhu said with a smile:

"General, I haven't had a drink with the General for quite some time. Today is a good opportunity, so I would like to have a good drink with the General."

Chen Tianhua smiled and said: "Okay, but when it comes to drinking, I am no match for you. I will use the wine cup later, and you will use the small soup bowl, so that we can fight!"

Luo Erhu laughed and said: "This can't be done, General. I remember when we were suppressing bandits in the winter, we were in Langzui Mountain, and I fell into your trap. I was so drunk that I slept for a whole day and a whole night before I woke up.

,I won’t be fooled this time.”

Recalling that the first time they suppressed bandits was in the dead of winter, both of them felt warm in their hearts. The horror and hardships at that time were really hard to understand for outsiders.

That time Chen Tianhua wanted to come to the center to bloom, but he was surrounded by horse bandits five times his size on the hillside. He stubbornly resisted more than ten enemy charges. As a result, Zuo Gang lost his left eye, Jiang Wu lost his right arm, and there were countless casualties.

More than a hundred remnant soldiers were wailing on the slope, thinking about how they would survive tomorrow, which was really incomparable to what they were doing now.

After a few bowls of wine, Luo Erhu's restraint was forgotten. He opened his clothes and said with a smile:

"General, I still remember when we were trapped in Langzui Mountain, drinking and waiting for the two assault battalions led by Mr. Sun Yongsun and Mr. Li Xinghong to arrive in time. Otherwise, we would never have thought that we would be here today.

Such a beautiful scene!”

"Yes, life is like a big gamble! If you want to win more, you have to place a big bet. If you lose, you will die without a burial place. If you win, you will be proud of the others. No matter you win or lose, you will be so happy and hearty.

A man with no regrets," Chen Tianhua said.

Ji Chunsheng, who was watching coldly, took a sip of wine and said with some regret:

"It's a pity that I was at the base camp in Hangzhou. I really want to have such an experience. It's worth dying. How many times can I fight in life!"

"Well, speaking of the base camp, I suddenly remembered the Army Department's expansion of the Zhejiang New Army and the unification of the military system. Chief of Staff, I want to hear your opinion. Erhu is not an outsider, so I can also listen.

The thoughts of frontline officers are for reference." Chen Tianhua changed the subject and suddenly asked a sensitive topic.

He is a person with divergent thinking. Most people, even the people around him, cannot keep up with his thoughts. I wonder what he will think about next second?

Ji Chunsheng was given the thumbs up and could no longer avoid such a sensitive topic. He had to slowly put down his wine glass, try his best to relax his highly tense nerves, and said bravely:

"As for the unification of the military system, this is an issue that any commander-in-chief must consider. Commander-in-Chief Li is currently implementing a two-horse carriage strategy of you and Young Master Li, keeping pace with each other. If military orders are not smooth and the military system is not unified, it will be a serious problem.

avoid."

"Let's talk about the general first. There are currently 4,500 people in the Second Association under Lord Li Xinghong, 2,000 people in the Huguang Luo Erhu Biao Regiment, 2,000 people in the Gannan Chen Er, Song Xiaoniu Biao Regiment, and 2,000 people in the Ganxi Yang Biao Regiment.

There are 1,500 people in the Good Beacon Regiment, 1,000 people from Hong Asi who were just sent to Chongming, about 1,100 people from the Military Coordination Office’s Special Forces Brigade, and Du

Wei's police force has more than 100 people, and the total regular army is about 12,600 people. This does not include the self-built militia in each mining area, the horse crews in the horse ranch, etc. If added, it will be close to 30,000 people.

What is the scale of this? There is also a naval escort fleet, and there are a thousand sailors and marines on board."

"However, most of the grassroots officers have no independent experience, but there are still only a few of them. This will cause problems in the effectiveness of wartime command. This is one. Second, in order to adapt to future domestic and international situation developments, Feng Feng

It is imperative to expand the army, but now there are two establishments of the new army and the security force, which is unethical.

No, some people think that the security forces are private armed forces, which will affect the safety of the court? There is also the issue of officer promotion. The New Army has now begun to implement a Western-style military rank system, but it is not convenient to implement this system in the security forces. This is a problem for officers.

This creates a huge obstacle to promotion, thereby discouraging their ambition."

"Now, most of the security force's recruits and battalion-level commanders are selected from your personal guards. But now we have a formal armament school that specializes in training officers. As long as we can provide them with a path to promotion, they

You will work hard and be loyal to your superiors and leaders.”

"A qualified mid-level officer can also effectively help you control the army. What I shouldn't say is that after these officers who graduated from regular schools went to the army, even people like Erhu, Chen Er and others did anything rebellious.

, I’m afraid it’s also ineffective.”

Luo Erhu had been listening silently, nodding his head in agreement, but when he heard the word "rebellion", he couldn't help being shocked and angry. A thin layer of sweat broke out on his body. Huo Di stood up and reprimanded:

"Master Shen, you...what do you mean by this? Back then, I followed Mr. Sun Yong to go to Keyanjian Lake Water Village to rescue the general. I have followed the general since then. How can I have any second thoughts about the general..."

Chen Tianhua smiled and waved his hand, "Oh... I mean, Erhu, why are you so excited? Chief of Staff Ji was just using an analogy, and besides, he was talking about rebellion."

"How can there be such an analogy? There is a difference between rebellion and conspiracy... I don't mean it. Sir, I, Erhu, have always respected you, but... but you say this to me, I... I am not done with you!" Luo Erhu boasted

Beard stared, still furious.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Luo Biaotong, the Erhu brother, I'm sorry. It was Ji who spoke unscrupulously, and I didn't doubt your intentions. However, your understanding of words is very biased. Rebellion means that you may not listen.
