Chapter 166 Bo Shoude and Wu Dazhou
Chapter 166 Bo Shoude and Wu Dazhou
(I started to update today, but this year I am a little busy with work. My superiors have thrown all the things at hand to me. There are many things to learn to do. I can't maintain one update a day later. There are more and less efforts to ensure that the book friends who are impatient can keep it for a while before reading it.)
(There are too few updates, and Yali, who is subscribed, will no longer ask for anything. Thank you for your support from book friends all the time, and I wish you a happy Lantern Festival)
"Brother Ziming, Brother Zuo Zhou, when I parted, I thought everyone had no chance to get together again."
The train was near the station, a young man in his thirties and a young man in his twenties walked out of the carriage one after another. As soon as he sucked in two breaths of fresh air, Yuan Dingrong, who is currently the commander of the 6th Regiment of the 3rd Feng Division, came up with excitement.
"Brother Xingguo, it's you!" The older Wu Dazhou immediately looked happy when he saw Yuan Dingrong.
The three of them punched each other in the chest to show their excitement.
"Okay, I didn't expect you to be a lieutenant colonel now." Bo Shoude (named Ziming) smiled when he saw the epaulette on Yuan Dingrong's shoulder.
"How can I compare with you two? Brother Zuo Zhou has served as the governor of Shandong, and Brother Zi Ming has also served as the commander of Shandong Guardians. The commander of the army. It is not comparable to that of a lieutenant colonel leader now." Yuan Dingrong smiled.
"The Shandong Capital Army is just a passing cloud. A few days ago, I was just a prisoner at the bottom. Now I have no position, so don't make fun of me." Wu Dazhou shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"The 30,000 Lu troops were just mobs, and they were short of food and bullets. How could they compare with the current Fengtian army?" Bo Shoude also said. "Although he has never been able to witness the style of the Fengtian army, the changes in the Fengtian Railway oil line that he saw from the train north were roughly a little."
"The style of Fengjun will definitely surprise Brother Zuozhou and Brother Ziming. Okay, let's not talk much, get in the car, don't let Xingshuai wait for a long time." Yuan Dingrong made a gesture to the two of them.
"I don't know how Xingshuai will arrange for us two down-and-out people." Bo Shoude said while getting in the car.
The driver was a soldier. Yuan Dingrong sat in the car and said without hesitation, "We are all old acquaintances, so I will tell you directly. With your abilities, you will definitely be very useful in the Fengtian army in the future, but the premise is to follow the rules of Fengtian."
"By the rules of heaven?" Bo Shoude and Wu Dazhou were both stunned.
"Yes, the Fengtian army is different from the previous new army, and is very different from other troops in the Republic of China." Yuan Dingrong said, "The military rules will be given to you at that time, but don't think it's just empty words and must be strictly abide by them."
"Oh? There is always a point. Brother Xingguo might as well reveal it first." Bo Shoude said.
Yuan Dingrong said, "In the past, everything was centered on the military chief. However, the officers of Fengtian were responsible for training and fighting, military discipline, ideological education, and military capital distribution. Of course, the premise is that although Brother Zuo Zhou and Brother Zi Ming can accept the appointment of Xingshuo, it is obviously not possible to follow the previous military position. You still have to be mentally prepared."
Wu Dazhou smiled and said, "Duan Qirui is very wary of me. Since I was deceived into Beijing prison, I have never thought about coming out again. How can I bargain again? According to the previous position of Shandong Governor, I am on par with Xingshuai. Even if Xingshuai gives me such a big official, I dare not ask for it."
"That's right, that's right," Bo Shoude nodded repeatedly.
"Speaking of this, it's really God's will torment. When we were following Brigade Commander Lan Tianwei, we were full of energy and wanted to do something big for the country. Unexpectedly, Xingshuai's chess move was a step ahead. We all had to leave the Northeast because of Xingshuai, and we were gathered together again because of Xingshuai." Wu Dazhou said with emotion. "I don't know how the other old brothers are doing now."
"Apart from the fact that Nie Ruqing killed some people, everyone else was doing well in Fengtian," Yuan Dingrong gritted his teeth when he thought of Nie Ruqing.
"Actually, it's good to stay in Fengtian. Brother Zuozhou and I were taken to Shandong. After several battles, we are no more than ten. Okay, let's not talk about these disappointing things." Bo Shoude said, "There are unexpected situations in heaven, and people have good fortune and good fortune. Fortunately, most people have a good home now. Speaking of which, Fengtian's treatment is really good. When I brought tens of thousands of people in Shandong, I basically relied on riding horses. I haven't taken such a car a few times. I didn't expect you, the lieutenant colonel leader, could just sit on it casually."
"This kind of car is not a rare item in Fengtian. It costs more than 1,000 yuan. Even a wealthy businessman in Fengtian can afford it." Yuan Dingrong said, "Of course, I can't afford it now. I don't have to ride it many times. I usually have large military trucks in the army, but it's not as comfortable as this kind of car. Xingshuai asked me to pick you two up, so I'll have the chance to get here today."
After leaving the station, as Yuan Dingrong said, on the wide street, in addition to rickshaws, bicycles, and trucks passing by from time to time, black cars in groups of three or three drove past from time to time, which surprised Wu Dazhou and Bo Shoude.
"Good, even Shanghai and Fengtian City are probably the case." Bo Shoude, who has lived in Shanghai for a long time, said. In terms of economic scale, Shanghai is of course larger than Fengtian, which has only developed for a few years. However, in terms of mechanization, Fengtian City is already ahead of China. Therefore, Fengtian City can make people feel the atmosphere of modern civilization more than Shanghai.
Wu Dazhou noticed another point, pointing to a truck lane that happened to be passing outside the car window, "Xingguo, you just said that the military truck is similar to this one?"
"Well, if there is an emergency, Fengtian can mobilize hundreds of trucks to transport artillery, supplies and troops at any time. For example, the Feng 2nd Division went to Suiyuan this year, and the weather was hot, Fengtian called a considerable number of trucks." Yuan Dingrong nodded. "Now each division has a small number of trucks, but the number will gradually expand afterwards."
"Which division do you belong to now?" Bo Shoude asked.
"Feng 3rd Division."
"How many trucks do you have like this?"
"During military exercises, at most 60 vehicles were used to transport the entire artillery regiment, but usually only 15 vehicles were usually only 15, which is considered to be the highest number of trucks in the Feng army, second only to the 27th Division and the Feng 1st Division and the Feng 2nd Division. Other divisions are a little less."
Hearing this, Bo Shoude and Wu Dazhou both came to a quiet moment. The Fengtian has always been known for their excellent equipment in the outside world. Fengtian controlled the vast Korqin and Xilingol grasslands, as much as the pack horses are needed. The Fengtian's mobility is more than any domestic unit. Now it is so shameful that every division is equipped with military trucks. When he thinks that those artillery are transported to the battlefield by trucks at the fastest speed, his artillery team is still dragging horses and wandering around the road. Thinking about fighting with such an enemy makes people feel a little scared.
In any era, talents, aircraft, tanks, and armored vehicles have not yet raging, and the concept of mechanization is not so deeply rooted in people's hearts. In addition to human training factors, artillery is almost a decisive force on the battlefield. Who can put the cannon into the battlefield as fast as possible largely determines which side the balance of the war victory tilts.
"You can see that Xingguo, you have a high opinion of Xingshuai." Wu Dazhou smiled and said, "Okay, Ziming and I are also lucky to see this legendary Xingshuai today."
"You can't accept it." Yuan Dingrong said frankly. As he was speaking, the car had already entered the yard of the government building.
"Okay, I can only send it here." Yuan Dingrong got off the car and said, "Super Xing is the only talent. With the talents of Brother Zhou and Brother Ziming, he will definitely be of great use in Fengtian. I hope that we can be comrades together in the future and create a different Northeast Army under the leadership of Mr. Xing."
Bo Shoudedao, "When did you start to talk, don't worry, since you have chosen to come to Fengtian, as long as Xingshuai doesn't drive people away, Chief Lan is in Fengtian, so we will naturally not leave."
Yuan Dingrong smiled and said, "Okay, then I, Jinghou and the other two, will go and have a banquet, and then ask a few old acquaintances who are now in Fengtian City to have a good drink together."
Under the leadership of the guards, Bo Shoude and Wu Dazhou walked into Ye Chong's office one after another, and Lan Tianwei was also there.
"I have met Mr. Xing! Chief Lan." Wu Dazhou and Bo Shoude saluted Ye Chong one after another.
Ye Chong looked at the two of them. Wu Dazhou was in his early thirties and stayed in prison for a while. His face turned pale, but he was free again and in a good state of mind. He was a young soldier.
"You are Ziming, you are really too young. You are a young young man. It's better to meet him than to be famous. I didn't expect you can still lead an army of tens of thousands of people. Brother Zuo Zhou is also good. Brother Ji Hao's second-class association was really full of talents." Ye Chong smiled. Bo Shoude was quite handsome. In the words of later generations, or in the words of the men in Northeast China today, he was just a slut.
"Xing Shuai is too rewarded." Bo Shoude quickly said modestly, thinking that Ye Chong looked no bigger than him, and he was very old-fashioned when speaking.
"Shishou Xing is praising himself in a roundabout way. Zuo Zhou, Ziming has led tens of thousands of people and is more than me, but how can he compare to Xing Shuai's commander in several provinces?" Lan Tianwei shook his head and said, "It's the end of the year. Lan Tianwei, the deputy chief of staff, will be converted to the commander of the 10th Division next year. Now it is talking about this matter with Ye Chong.
"Okay, I'm not kidding anymore." Ye Chong looked at the two of them and said, "Zi Ming, you have led tens of thousands of troops before, served as the commander of the Seventh Army, Brother Zuo Zhou, you have served as the governor of Shandong. The battle has always been good. You even used a group of mobs to defeat the 5th Central Division. But Fengtian does not have such a high position for you. How about Fengtian condescendingly as a regiment commander? As for military positions, you will be a lieutenant colonel."
Wu Dazhou and Bo Shoude looked at each other, which was expected. Before coming on the way, the two had already learned that a group of Fengtian troops was a large group of 3,000 people. Although the military position was several levels lower than before, it would be a false statement that there was no gap in their hearts. However, no matter how prominent the body was, they were all the past. Now the two are just civilians and are not treated in the central government. It is still reasonable to be the leader of Fengtian.
"If it weren't for Xingshuai, Beizhi would still be imprisoned in Beijing prison at this moment. I don't know when I will see the light of the sky again. I am just a prisoner. There is no reason to be picky at this time. Thanks to Xingshuai's favor, since Xingshuai has a regiment commander, Beizhi will definitely lead a regiment of soldiers for Xingshuai." Wu Dazhou said.
Bo Ziming also said, "Brother Zuo Zhou is right. It is enough that Xingshuai gave us a chance to display our abilities. Since ancient times, fame will be obtained immediately. If we do not rely on military merits, even if Xingshuai's words make me become the commander again, others will still not accept it. What does it mean to be a commander like that?"
"Okay, I'll wait for you to take your military merits to my table. I will personally award you a medal!" Ye Chong said.
"Yes, Xingshuai."
"Brother Ji Hao, you have to go back to the General Staff and take them to settle first. It's a bit hard to get all the way to Fengtian. Let's take a day off first and start familiarizing them with the rules and regulations of Fengtian's army tomorrow."
"Okay, Xingshuai, then Beizhi took them there."
"Yes." Mu Sui and his friends went out, and Ye Chong raised the phone, "Hey, Brother Zhineng, please inform the person in charge to terminate our arms transaction with Tsarist Russia. Except for some of the newly produced arms in the Tongliao Arsenal, transport all the others to the recruit training office, except for some of the newly produced arms in the Tongliao Arsenal to the temporary First Army and the Second Army."
"What should I do if the Tsarist Russians ask?" Wenshan's voice came from the phone.
"No matter who he is, we still have to look at the Russians' faces." Ye Chong said.
"Okay, let's arrange it immediately."
"Well, that's it." Ye Chong hung up the phone. Although the profit of the arms was very attractive, Ye Chong was not short of this little money now. The Tongliao Arsenal produced more than 5,000 rifles in a month, 75-caliber field cannons, and more than 70 mountain cannons, and 105-heavy field cannons are still only 2. As for bullets, even if they are not considered production, they only need reserves, and there is no problem to fight a few big battles. Once these materials start, transporting them to the front line can increase their army a considerable chance of winning.
Ye Chong, a Russian now, has not taken it seriously yet. What he is really worried about is that the *** people intervene. With such hard power, the more you have on hand, the better.
With these arms, coupled with the personnel urgently recruited from the security brigades in various counties, even if there is some loss on the battlefield, the personnel can be replenished as soon as possible.
