49. Swearing
Chen Xiu's words are right, a country's military industry is indeed much more important than a brigade.
"How old are you? Do you dare to say that the arsenal you haven't built yet is a country's military industry? Tang Hu grinned, he must go to the battlefield! How could it be reduced to a logistics unit in the rear! What's more, there is not even a shadow of this arsenal matter!
"No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles; If you don't accumulate small streams, you can't become rivers and seas. Father-in-law, things are done one by one, and they will be done only after they add up. The arsenal and steel plant I want to build will definitely become China's No. 1 military enterprise in the future! Chen Xiu was not convinced, the order was like this, he estimated that it was what Lao Chen meant. After all, Lao Tang and Lao Chen have been friends for many years, not to mention, Lao Tang has lost an arm, Lao Chen naturally thinks that it is better to go to the rear to protect the arsenal, not to mention, Lao Chen has his own little abacus, go to the rear, Chen Xiu and Tang Ning are two people, so they have the opportunity to create people with time, right? On the battlefield, who would have this mind.
"Don't teach me that! Sour! Tang Hu is really mad, if he hadn't been afraid that Chen Xiu was his son-in-law, all kinds of swear words would have come out at this moment.
Tang Ning sighed on the side, and hurriedly went to smooth his father's anger, "Dad, don't be angry." "In Tang Ning's opinion, Tang Hu has already lost an arm, and now he has the opportunity to go to the rear, which is also very good." This is an order from the high command, and as soldiers, we can only obey military orders! It's not self-denial's fault! ”
Tang Hu is still angry, and the beard he has grown in recent months is also shaking.
Chen Xiu is really a little helpless, this old Tang, why is his temper so strong? It's just to let him go to the rear, not to let him do anything.
"You have to go!" Tang Hu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, "I will resign from the post of brigade commander to the Command, you will take the soldiers of the independent brigade away, I will stay and continue to fight devils." ”
Chen Xiu's brows furrowed deeply, what is Old Tang going to do? But before he could ask, he heard Tang Hu continue, "As a deserter, I will never be a deserter in this life." ”
"That's right! I'm with you! ”
"Travel! I'll stay too! ”
"I'm here too!"
Listening to the soldiers next to him, there were soldiers who kept saying that they wanted to stay with Tang Hu, Chen Xiu's heart was cold, is this a group of horsemen who only know how to work hard?
"Hahaha!" Chen Xiu laughed, "Sure enough, it's all a group of ignorant puppets!" ”
The word "puff" is a curse word, referring to a person who has no knowledge and no resourcefulness.
"Camp Commander Chen, we don't have much knowledge, we are what you call a puppet! But we have never been cowardly on the battlefield! A soldier spoke, very dissatisfied, "We threw our heads and spilled blood, and now we have many scars on our bodies!" Why have you insulted us! ”
"Say you puffs! I'm still lifting you up! Chen Xiu pointed at Tang Hu, "Don't stare at me, a bunch of idiots!" Do you know why China has fallen to this point? Decades ago, the First Sino-Japanese Bloody War! The hundreds of millions of taels of silver were lost, do you remember! There is also the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the blood of the Old Summer Palace has not dried up yet! Have you ever wondered why?! ”
"I never think about the reason, I know what is the use of working hard! I tell you, in this era, there is never a shortage of desperate people! But we still ended up in such a field, do you know why? ”
No one answered.
"It's because of backwardness! Lag! Lag! Chen Xiu hated that iron could not become steel, "Our industrial foundation is weak, and we can't even make guns!" Up to now, a few people have taken the middle formal! If my steel mill and arsenal are built, then at most a few years, all the soldiers of the country will be able to replace themselves with good rifles! No more fighting with the Japanese with a broadsword! Do you know what it's called? This is called knowledge to change fate! My father, Chen Yifu, has donated a batch of military funds to the party and the state every year for more than 20 years, and bought me a battalion of German equipment! But so what? In the battle of Songhu, we still lost! The reason for this is that my father's actions are too weak, and this is one of them! ”
But the most fundamental reason is because this behavior is really a palliative rather than a cure! The donated military expenses are used by the party-state to buy equipment, which is good! But no one thought that if we could make it ourselves, why buy it! If the sum of money in 20 years had been started 20 years ago, would the situation be different today? ”
No one answered, yes, for 20 years, a batch of military expenses have been donated every year, even if it is 10,000 oceans a year, that is 200,000 oceans! It is more than enough to build a steel plant with 200,000 oceans.
"But now, the Mukden Arsenal has fallen into the hands of the Japanese! The arsenals in this area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are about to go into the hands of the Japanese! How many are left now? I'm telling you, it's two! Only the Hanyang Arsenal and the Gongxian Xiaoyi Arsenal remain! The Japanese invasion of China will not stop, and in the future, more and more people will become soldiers! However, there are only a few arsenals, and when you become a soldier, where are the weapons and equipment! Have you ever thought about it? ”
Chen Xiu's words made everyone have nothing to say, because what Chen Xiu said was the truth!
"Now, my father has poured all his money into ordering the rifle production line and the supporting equipment of the steel factory, these things, worth millions of oceans, let you guard and build them with me, is it an insult to you?"
The crowd remained silent.
Even Tang Hu calmed down, began to think, and then asked, "Did your father really buy the equipment?" ”
"Of course!" Chen Xiu glanced at Tang Hu coldly, "If not, how can there be an order from the Command Headquarters for you!" This batch of equipment, as long as it is played well, will soon be tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of rifles will be delivered to the fighters! Brigade Commander Tang thinks, am I joking? ”
At this moment, everyone was surprised, now that one of them has a middle school, they are already very happy, and they also know that their current equipment is quite good, and some troops don't even have a few guns! This is on the battlefield, and it is purely to give his life!
Tang Hu exhaled, "I won't mention this anymore." ”
Chen Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief,! finally calmed things down, he also underestimated the character of the soldiers in this era, there are many people who are proud of the battlefield, not everyone is so afraid of death. However, in this era, there are still too few people who understand this truth and are willing to change it. Some people, who may know, but have more than enough heart and strength, and some people, who may not know, only know that the Japanese are coming, and whatever they say, they have to block it.
"That's good! Brigadier Tang, you can remember it yourself! Chen Xiu's face is not good-looking, he is an adult, and he was scolded by Tang Hu pointing at his nose, although he scolded back, but he didn't want to lose face?
"Alright, you bastard! Just pretend to be a few words, haven't you scolded just now? Tang Hu shouted loudly again.
Chen Xiu sighed, "Okay, father-in-law!" ”
"Alright, alright." Tang Hu waved his hand, "Order, everyone has 1 day off and come back to report before tomorrow night!" Go to Nanjing City by yourself! But, remember, don't mess around! ”
The commanders of the regiments received the order, and then went to announce the order with joy.
At this time, by Chen Xiu's side, there were only the people from the Tiger Camp and Tang Ning, as well as Tang Hu and Di Feng.
"Boy, come here." Tang Hu pointed at Chen Xiu.
Chen Xiu walked over.
"Where are you going to build this factory? The device shouldn't have arrived yet, right? ”
Chen Xiu nodded, "The equipment should not have arrived, for details, I have to ask my father." However, since the command gave this order, it means that the matter is a foregone conclusion, and my father must have visited some high-level places. As for this factory, I want to build it in Luoyang or Baoji, but it really can't be built, and Hanzhong can also be built. ”
"Hanzhong? Baoji? Tang Hu raised his eyebrows, "Do you know what kind of place it is!" ”
"I know, in Shaanxi!"
