June 15, 1912.

Nanyang Sun Zhiheng's camp will be a star twinkling, the sages are all over, this day is the day of the revival party army competition, early, everyone came to the camp playground to build a podium to take a seat.

Under the podium, there are more than 20 large square teams, one of which is particularly conspicuous, with about 1,000 people, all of whom are elite masters selected by various units.

Nanyang now has about 35,000 regular troops, and the quality of officers is also more than that of domestic troops, Nanyang Army Academy is not a decoration, in recent years, students have graduated and then assigned to the army, Sun Zhiheng's camp has been stationed in 15,000 people all year round, and other troops are stationed in various places.

Moreover, Nanyang can be said to be a soldier for all the people, even women, who have undergone some basic training, and there is absolutely no problem in shooting, and men must go through regular militia training and pass the assessment.

So in this part of Nanyang, if it is only the army, the Baath Party really does not bother anyone.

This time, students and instructors from various command academies in China came to Nanyang to observe, and outstanding students from army academies from various places were also invited to participate, and then some high-ranking members of the Baath Party, wealthy businessmen, gentry, and cultural giants.

The high-ranking officers on the rostrum were talking a lot, and everyone thought that the soldiers they had carefully selected could achieve good results, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic when they fought for each other, and if it weren't for the fact that gambling was not allowed in the army, these generals really didn't mind coming to fight.

The time reached nine o'clock sharp.

As the horn in the barracks sounded, Sun Zhiheng walked up to the microphone, without greetings or encouragement, and directly announced the start of the competition.

There are many projects in this competition, which are divided into individual projects and team projects.

Individual events include martial arts, wrestling, high jump, long jump, long and sprint, swimming, firearms shooting, archery, driving and so on.

Each arena was located in a different place, and guests could choose the items they were interested in, and the members of the task force who had been training in the mountains for nearly two months were scattered to each field to select suitable members to participate in the special task force.

"Brother Xuan, tell you something!"

Sun Zhiheng ran over and said.

"A few days ago, Brother Ye Zhongyu sent a letter, saying that an Englishman had transported some horses from Persia to sell them here, I went to take a look, but it was really a good horse, much better than the horse we originally had from Suiyuan!"

"Oh!"

"I'd like to buy some for our cavalry training."

"Hmm!"

"Don't you uh-huh, you should say something, do you want to buy it or not?"

"Didn't Senior Brother Jinglai allocate your military expenses for this year to you, you are the commander of the Nanyang Group Army, aren't you in control of Nanyang's military expenses, what are you asking me for?"

"No, brother, these horses are a bit much, well, and the price is a little too expensive."

"How expensive?"

"Hehe, it's actually not that expensive, it's just a little higher than our Suiyuan horse, and there are more of them?"

Sun Zhiheng scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Captain, how expensive is it?"

Sun Hongye, who came to participate in the military competition, was also surprised, and Jiang Fangzhen and other officers were also aroused and came over one after another.

"That person wants a horse 80 oceans, more than 300 in total?"

"What broken horses are so expensive, our horses in Suiyuan are only more than 10 oceans, and the most expensive ones are only 30, since you like it, don't you buy a few by yourself, why ask me?"

"I want to, but that bastard is not sold in bulk, it must be shipped together, and it will cost nearly 30,000 oceans at once, if I buy it, the finances are not easy now, and Brother Jinglai won't scold me to death?"

"Huh? You bastard want me to pay for it myself? ”

"Originally, I was also rich, but my daughter-in-law listened to the idea of his sister who lives in France, and invested all the money to set up a yacht factory to produce cruise ships, so isn't it a little tight lately?"

The brothers who started their businesses with Chen Xuan in the early days are basically millions of family assets now, but they have also invested in their favorite projects, so they really don't have any spare money.

"Can a mere 30,000 oceans stump our Commander Sun?"

Jiang Fangzhen couldn't help but quip.

"My ruined lady borrowed all her relatives and friends one by one in order to start that Rausch yacht shipyard, and now I hide when I see them, afraid that they will ask me for debts, do you think it is difficult to live with me?"

Sun Zhiheng said angrily, causing everyone to laugh, and at the same time, he was also concerned, this problem is not only Sun Zhiheng's family! These people's wives couldn't sit still after seeing that Chen Xuan's wife Xu Ruohan came out to open the Hongyuan Automobile Factory and began to make a lot of money.

Each of them has a way, some families make fashion, some families make jewelry, and some families run factories, and they also spend all their money, and relatives and friends have also borrowed it, so they laugh and laugh, and everyone can't laugh anymore.

But Chen Xuan is not rich, he has subsidized the cause of the Baath Party and helped the victims in China over the years, and he has long been clean and slippery, not to mention that there are two wives at home.

originally thought that Zhang Youwei was a money-saver, but after Zhang Youwei came back, she began to open hospitals and medical schools, which do not cost money? I also voted a lot in Crescent Village.

As for Zhenhua's dividends, it is only once a year, and there is no door to advance it, not to mention that the company is big, and Chen Xuan can't take the lead in breaking the rules.

"I'll be 10,000, and you can figure out the rest!"

"Don't, brother, you only give 10,000, where can I find the rest, my daughter-in-law gave me 500 pocket money every month, even if I save until I die, it will be difficult to save it back?"

"You gave me a lot of your two sisters-in-law—" Chen Xuan hurriedly stopped, but when he saw a group of joking officers, he couldn't help but be angry, "Isn't there a group of bosses here, you can ask them to borrow it!" ”

Chen Xuan laughed and said, he didn't believe that Sun Zhiheng didn't hide his private money.

A group of officers were trying to slip away, but Sun Zhiheng had already rushed over, and the elder brother and brother were affectionate, and under the entanglement of Sun Zhiheng's dead face, they finally raised all the money for the purchase of horses, leaving a group of senior officers with bitter gourd faces.

Chen Xuan smiled even more happily, he thought that he was living a miserable life alone, and he had never been embarrassed to reveal it, but now he looks at it, hehe, the eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother, and no one is much better - they are all fallen people at the end of the world!

For this group of officers, the competition in the army actually doesn't show much interest, everyone has led soldiers, what kind of scene have you never seen?

And individual bravery can really not play a big role in a war, but I am looking forward to the teamwork competition in three days.

Therefore, although the atmosphere in each arena was warm and cheering, all the officers still found a place to exchange their experience in leading troops, and everyone expressed their opinions, and many military ideas also gave Chen Xuan great inspiration.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, this is true, in the afternoon, the people sent by Sun Zhiheng to buy horses came back.

Dozens of senior officers couldn't sit still either, and went to watch the excitement together.

As soon as they arrived at the back camp, they heard a cacophony of people shouting and neighing, and everyone gasped.

"It's such a good horse, no wonder Commander Sun is so obsessed!"

"It's much better than our Suiyuan Horse Divine Horse!"

"I'm afraid that three Mongolian ponies are the size of one of these horses, right?"

Although Chen Xuan had expected that Sun Zhiheng should buy an Arab horse, and many later generations had seen it in TV and movies, but more than 300 horses were placed together, which still shocked Chen Xuan.

Where can Sun Zhiheng still bear it, staring at a big black horse and rushing over, jumping up from a distance, grabbing the horse's mane and holding on, the big black horse was frightened, and ran up in the playground at once, like lightning, the speed was amazing, and it caused a burst of exclamations.

After running a few laps, the big black horse finally calmed down and began to slow down, Sun Zhiheng circled the black horse, patted the horse's neck, and jumped down again, looking at the table triumphantly.

"Commander Sun, you must give me two horses!"

"Commander Sun, mine should be indispensable, right?"

"Captain, you have to worry about our friendship with the world!"

The officers began to curry favor with Sun Zhiheng shamelessly, but Sun Zhiheng still shook his head vigorously, obviously not wanting to share the profits.

"Everyone, everyone, don't be in a hurry!"

Sun Hongye was sweating profusely and stopped everyone and said:

"I just took a closer look, these horses are all stallions, they have not been castrated, we have our own horse farm in Suiyuan, we can transport them over for breeding, I believe that in a few years, your subordinates will have a cavalry battalion and cavalry regiment with strong combat power!"

"I said Sun Changjing, what you said is as if I don't have a horse farm in Nanyang, just to breed, you can also do it here, why do you have to get Suiyuan?"

Now that it was good, Sun Zhiheng and the officers in Nanyang also began to quarrel with Sun Hongye and other officers in Suiyuan in the northeast.

"Changjing, are you saying that we also have our own horse farm in Suiyuan?"

Chen Xuan was a little strange, he didn't give the order to fight Suiyuan, how could he have a territory?

"Instructor, the Suiyuan steppe is not like our interior, although there are so many cities, but Suiyuan is a vast and sparsely populated place, these Mongolian nobles, as long as they give a little benefit, these places are ours, and they don't dare to attack us if they have the courage to borrow them, but those horse thieves need to be guarded against!"

Chen Xuan pondered for a moment and said:

"Changjing is reasonable, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, I think so, let's not fight, Nanyang Horse Farm and Suiyuan Horse Farm each account for half, are used to train stallions, wait for two years, our horses will naturally be more and more, and we can also organize our own fleet to buy, so that we can spend a lot less money!"
