For the first time, in his capacity as the overseer of Xinjiang, the second master telegraphed 20,000 soldiers and officers from the two resettlement sites in Hanzhong and Ulanqab to be concentrated in the Fengtai camp in Beijing for a five-month intensive training before January 31, 1915.

The chief instructor of this training is Zhang Pengxiang and Zhang Erye, the new Xinjiang overseers.

After receiving the telegram, the two resettlement sites for displaced people actively selected their top soldiers, preparing to show their faces to the second master in Beijing.

How did they know that these people would never return, and I am afraid that after knowing this, they would not be so active in selecting their excellent subordinates.

These people were all trained by the second master as the backbone of the Xinjiang First Army (referred to as the "New First Army") that entered Xinjiang.

After graduating from the five-month intensive training, these people will rejoin the ranks of the "Xinjiang First Army" in the form of grassroots officers, and then sweep up the bandits in the great northwest and advance, also training soldiers with combat. He was the first batch of people who entered Xinjiang with the second master.

The second master also thought about it, and it was necessary to train a group of low-level military officers who had passed the ideological consciousness and had excellent military skills.

He didn't want to train the Zhang family's private army, nor did he want to train the warlords' **. Rather, it is necessary to cultivate a group of young officers with noble patriotic sentiments and a view of the overall situation of the world. It will lay an unbreakable and solid foundation for the Chinese nation's second expedition.

Why can some small countries in the modern world go on expeditions to the world? And the Chinese nation, which has a history of 5,000 years of expeditions, can't? Why? ~~~ The second master has 10,000 dissatisfaction in his heart!

There has never been a "civilization" in this world, never has been!

Some have always been naked and strong, and whoever has a hard fist is "civilized"! Whoever kills ruthlessly and who kills wins, who is the boss of the "civilization" of this world, and who has the right to speak in this world!

Therefore, the second master never believed in the peaceful coexistence between different races and different countries. The so-called period of peace is just that in the face of power, the weak have to retreat and forbear~~~ They may not agree with you in their hearts, but they may hate you dormantly!

On December 23, 1914, the winter sun in Beijing was rarely shining. The uncles and aunts in the alley collectively leaned on the root of the courtyard wall, basking in the warm winter sun that was not blazing.

The ancient hutongs of old Beijing seem to be completely silent at this moment, as if the entire city of Beijing has been sunburned lazily~~~

Suddenly, there was a burst of chatter and quarrels, breaking the silence in the old alley.

From the fork in the alley, a group of foreign students with a mix of men and women came out. (Students who attend the new school are collectively referred to as foreign students in old Beijing.) ）

"Big sister! What are you doing here? Go home. ”

"I won't! I'm going to sign up too! It is also said in the registration briefing that all young people who are over 18 years old, in good health, and have a high school education or above, can register, male or female! What's more, as long as they are admitted, they will be issued military uniforms. The uniform of the female soldier! Hey~~~"

The girl is immersed in the longing of the women's military uniform. Get! is another "little fan girl" who was seduced by the female military uniform "designed" by the second master.

"But~~~ This is to be a soldier after all! It's going to be battle. Is it inappropriate for you to go as a girl? ”

"Brother Liu, why are you so feudal? Didn't you also see the female soldiers in front of Zhang's Mansion that day? How heroic they are! I've never seen a woman like this? Didn't you praise it back then? ”

"How can it be the same? My little sister is a girl in my family, if my parents knew that she followed me to sign up for the army, they wouldn't break my legs as an older brother? ”

"I'm not going with you, I'm signing up by myself, what does it have to do with you?"

"Liu E, go! You go with us, not with them. ”

"That's it! All right! Don't quarrel with your brothers and sisters. Whether you can be admitted or not is still a matter of two words! Let's go! If you go late, there will be no places. ”

"Aren't you going to recruit 5,000 places?"

"You know what! ~~~ That's 5,000 places nationwide! Do you know how many previous graduates are there in China? The registration deadline is until January 30 next year, how many people will come, do you know? ”

"Huh? Thanks to the fact that we are from the city of Beijing! Let's go! ~~~”

Seeing a group of dolls drifting away, an old man spoke:

"Alas! The world is going down! As the saying goes, a good man is not a soldier, and a good woman is not married. What's wrong with the dolls now? ”

"Old donkey's head! What do you know about this old-fashioned old man? That's the team that the second young master of the Zhang Mansion is recruiting into Xinjiang! Didn't read the newspapers a few days ago? The second elder of the Zhang family has been appointed as the overseer of Xinjiang. ”

"Remarkable! A feudal official! Better than his father back then. Once the second child of the Zhang family gains a firm foothold in Xinjiang, aren't these dolls all 'from the dragon'? ”

"Isn't that the reason!"

Okay! Even "from the dragon's work" came out. But in the old people's minds, these can only be thought of. After all, it was the early days of the Republic of China, and the feudal society had just perished. If the second master heard these words, he would definitely cry and laugh.

But at this time, the second master was in the Fengtai camp, in front of the contractor! Almost all the masons in Beijing were recruited by him to Nanyuan.

Nanyuan, which is usually sparsely populated, has now become a large construction site full of people. The old and dilapidated barracks were all renovated. A lot of modern training equipment has been added to the wide training ground, all of which are of course made of wood.

The previous wooden pile fence was all torn down, and a three-meter-high blue brick wall was rebuilt, blocking many curious eyes from outside the camp.

"I said Shoko, are you so laborious? Isn't it just a place for military training? That's such a waste! ”

"Shut up! Work! I'm here for you to help, not for you to chew your tongue. How to be like a! Pull the tape measure over. ”

The second master didn't care about Fa Xiao's complaints. continued to direct Tan Sanye to run around the playground. He himself held the reel of the tape measure, recording the distance and size that was pulled out by Tan Sanye.

Tan Sanye was half tired to death, and sat on the ground, panting heavily. When the breath stabilized a little, Tan Sanye came back to his senses.

"! You tired silly boy! Give me the reel and you come and run the distance. ”

"Hahaha! I also like to play sports! ”

The second master laughed and avoided the dirt thrown by the third master Tan.

"You're just a bad deal! How did I know you? ”

"Alas! The pressure of IQ, that is irremedy! ”

The second master was very helpless, and made a shrug of his shoulders at the small hair who gritted his teeth.

"Fuck off! Come here, I promise not to kill you! ”

"Alright, alright! Why don't you just run? Are you going to put on a desperate stance? In the evening, I have a treat. ”

The two friends have played enough, and the size of the second master has also been measured. The size was handed over to the contractor's master, and the two brothers sat together on the remaining green bricks of the wall.

"How many soldiers are you going to recruit? Make such a big venue. ”

"For the time being, 50,000 people, and when we enter Xinjiang, we will recruit another 2 million. After the country is stabilized, 10 million to 20 million soldiers will have to be recruited, otherwise it will not be enough! ”

The second master looked into the distance with deep eyes, but he thought in his heart - the crazy mustache during World War II mobilized a total of 17 million troops in Germany, but the mustache still failed. If it weren't for his arrogant two-front war, I don't know what the history of World War II would have been! If I want to expand my territory, why do I need more than 10 million troops~~~

"What~What? Shoko, you don't have a fever, do you? What exactly do you want to do? ”

Tan Sanye was really surprised by the number of his friends this time. He looked at the friend next to him in surprise~~~

"What? Is that scared? That's a little bit of interest! ”

The second master squinted and glanced at the surprised Fa Xiao with disdain, and continued:

"Taozi! Believe me! I'll show you a different world. We will turn the world upside down, and we will all return the suffering imposed on us by the great powers. Our goal is the Star Universe, and the tiny Earth is just our touchstone! ”

Originally, Tan Sanye was also a little excited when he listened to his friend's encouraging words, but the more he listened to it, the more wrong it became.

"you! Also the stars of the universe! Why don't you fly to the sky and ascend to immortality? ”

For Tan Sanye, who has stayed abroad and received modern education, he understands what the concept of the star universe of the novel is, so he doesn't believe the second master's nonsense more and more.

In fact, since the experiment changed history, the second master found that he would not disappear. His ambitions swelled with it. With the existence of space, who can say that these are just the second master's utopia? Anything is possible~~~

In the evening, the two brothers, who had a belly of mutton, broke up at the mouth of the alley. As soon as the second master entered the courtyard gate of the second room, Xiao Dezi came over.

"Second Young Master! The master asked you to go to the study. ”

"Got it. You go back to my father first, and say that I will take a shower and change my clothes first, and I can't enter the study with this muddy body! ”

"Yes! Second young master! ”

"Second master, are you back?"

The first to be discharged from the hospital is always the cute little vanilla.

"Vanilla, go tell the kitchenette and get some water. Second master, I want to take a bath. In addition, I asked Xianglian to prepare my clothes, and after taking a shower, I will go to the study to see my father. ”

"Got it, second master! The water has already been prepared, so go to the clean room first, and I will tell them to bring it. ”

The little girl waited for a quick bath, changed her clothes and hurried to the study.

In the study, there was only my father and my eldest brother. The two of them are still working on the "Baby Map".

"Father! Eldest brother! Something? ”

"Second brother! My father and I counted today that the number of adult children of our Zhang family who can go out on the expedition is 13,000 people who can read and write, and 8,100 people who practice martial arts and business, all of whom are 18 to 30 years old. ”

"Why are there so many? These prime people are gone, what will happen to their families? ”

The second master was a little surprised by the Zhang family's prime-aged Dingkou. It's a big family for hundreds of years! This is only the Dingkou of the near branches, what if you count those branches that go out? Good boy! It's scary.

I can't complain that there are hundreds of thousands of big families recorded in ancient books! It seems that it is really not the Spring and Autumn penmanship of the writer, it is a recorded fact.

The Zhang family only began to multiply in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, how long has it been? In hundreds of years, it has developed like this!

"If the family is an only son, he is not allowed to give out his mouth, but only money. This is the family rule set by the ancestors! ”

"Will the caravans of that clan still work?"

"The existing personnel of the caravan do not move."

"Okay then! I want them all! However, father, you have to explain to the people that where I go, I am not going to enjoy happiness, I will treat everyone equally, and there will be no special care! Fighting a war kills people. On the battlefield, I will let the children of our Zhang family charge ahead. ”

The second master solemnly warned his father, the patriarch. But he can't tell his old-fashioned father that his second grandfather Zhang is not raising the family's private soldiers, but the "people's soldiers" who protect the family and defend the country.

"Of course! Needless to say, they understand. Our Zhang family has been starting with martial arts for generations, you look at all the branches of the Zhang family in the past dynasties, how many of them are good people? How many have a good end? ”

"Then father, aren't you from the Wenshi?"

The second master was a little amused by the weird logic of the old father. According to the logic of the old father, first of all, he is not a good person! Hehe~~~

"Alas! You don't know! After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, our branch did not come out. Seeing that the family road is about to decay. The old patriarch of the elders pushed me out and married the Nalan family. Fortunately, you came out of your generation, which can be regarded as fulfilling your grandfather's grievances. ”

From the old father's words, the second master heard that the grandfather did not agree with his father's appearance back then. Also, the "turtle family" that has been protecting itself for hundreds of years has developed this kind of virtue that has nothing to do with itself, so why should I let my children stand out? It would be strange if Grandpa didn't have a grudge.

"Okay then! Anyway, these clansmen have to go through the training level, and if they can't stand it, I'll let them back, and don't embarrass them in the clan. ”

In fact, the second master doesn't want the family to be too involved, his second master is a person who wants to look up to the "Star Universe", where does he still care about the "family world"?

Joke! What era is it? Do a few old men still want to turn back the clock on history? The era of restoring the country and the world? It's scary to think about. On the way back to the hospital, the second master fought several cold war spirits in a row.
