Chapter 122: Help
Under the leadership of Yu Dayou, Tang Shunzhi, and Qi Jiguang, the Flying Tiger New Army stepped up training and use of the new ordnance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Chen Di changed the military system of the Flying Tiger Army again. Of these 1,000 people, Chen Di organized them into the first regiment of the Flying Tiger Army. The 1st Regiment consisted of three artillery battalions and one artillery battalion. There were more than 300 people in each battalion and 300 in the artillery battalion.
Chen Di also set up the governor of Zhejiang in the military camp of the Flying Tiger Army to handle the administrative affairs of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Nanzhili on the spot. Of course, all the administrative orders issued by Chen Di revolve around the overall situation of the southeast anti-Japanese war.
Lu Bing, on his side, also did his best. Nanzhen Fusi's cavalry is indeed worthy of its name. They either pretended to be ordinary people, or pretended to be businessmen to investigate the reality of the Japanese in the Jiaxing area, and gathered military information to Chen Di's desk.
On this day, Ma Ruyun, the shopkeeper of Fuxing Commercial Bank, and Su Bingyan, the leader of Hui merchants, asked to see Chen Di.
Ma Ruyun and Su Bingyan earned a lot of silver for Chen Di before the fall of Zhejiang. Zhejiang fell, and the two of them carried the fine soft and ran to Suzhou. Hearing that Chen Di came to Suzhou, the two hurried to meet him.
"Woohoo." When the two saw Chen Di, they actually cried.
Chen Di, who was crying with two old men, got goosebumps.
"Two bosses, what are you doing here?" Chen Di asked.
Ma Ruyun whimpered and replied, "My lord! I, Ma Ruyun, have been doing business for decades before I bought that poor industry in Zhejiang! It's gone, it's all gone! Fields, real estate, and dozens of businesses are all gone! These bastards have occupied Zhejiang, and I'm about to become poor now! ”
Su Bingyan said: "My lord! It's not just Boss Ma! We have no less than 100 businessmen in Huizhou, Zhejiang! Let the Japanese make such a fuss, and the hard work of decades of operation is all gone! ”
Chen Di comforted the two: "Alas, as the saying goes, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood!" Money is something outside the body, and you can earn it when you don't have it! The people are gone, but they are really gone! ”
Ma Ruyun said: "My life is almost gone!" My lord, as soon as those widows enter Hangzhou, they will kill men when they see them, and they will pounce on women when they see them! I escaped death by falling to the ground and pretending to be dead! The whole of Hangzhou is almost a river of blood! ”
Chen Di said: "What? Are you saying that the Japanese invaders carried out a massacre in the city of Hangzhou? ”
Ma Ruyun nodded: "Woo woo!" My family of 80 people, only about a dozen people fled to Suzhou! The rest should all be dead! You don't know, the water of the Qiantang River is stained red with blood! ”
Chen Di hammered his fist on the desk: "Damn the wolf!" These brutes! I promise you two that I will definitely avenge this revenge for the people of Hangzhou! Rest assured, both of you! I am now organizing the military to recover Zhejiang! I will definitely take back your land and real estate for you! ”
As the saying goes, there are no eggs under the nest. Although Su Bingyan is a profiteer, he is extremely generous in this national crisis: "Zhen Haibo is saying that you are going to Zhejiang to fight the Japanese invaders?" The real estate of hundreds of our Huizhou businessmen in Zhejiang is worth no less than 10 million taels! Although we escaped from Zhejiang, we can always scrape together hundreds of thousands of taels of silver now! If the adults can reclaim those fields and properties for us, if there is a shortage of military salaries, tell us! Nearly 10 million industries have been lost in Zhejiang, and we are not short of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver! ”
Chen Di said: "Boss Su has such a patriotic heart, which is really rare!" ”
Ma Ruyun also said: "We Zhejiang businessmen are businessmen born and raised in Zhejiang! Not only land and real estate, but also relatives and friends are also in Zhejiang! We can make up as much military pay as we can to Zhen Haibo you, and we can make up as much military pay as we can to Zhen Haibo you! One word! As long as Zhenhaibo can recover Zhejiang, we Zhejiang businessmen are willing to pay tribute to you how much money they have now! ”
Chen Di said: "The silver is not given to me by filial piety, it is the military salary for the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army!" ”
Su Bingyan gritted his teeth and said to Chen Di: "Boss Ma and I will go back and gather the Hui businessmen and Zhejiang businessmen in Suzhou to make money!" All the money made up will be sent here to be used as the salary of the Flying Tiger Army! ”
Chen Di's money was all pasted on the Office of the Ministry of War, and this time he came to Zhejiang, he can be said to know everything. These two took the initiative to make up for his military salary, and he couldn't ask for it: "Okay, then the military salary of the Flying Tiger Army will be entrusted to you two!" ”
Su Bingyan and Ma Ruyun said goodbye and left.
Chen Di sorted out the military information from Jinyiwei, and then he found Lu Bing, Yu Dayou, Tang Shunzhi, Qi Jiguang and others.
When everyone came to the big tent, Chen Di first praised Lu Bing: "Nanzhen Fu Si Tiqi is indeed worthy of its name!" It's only been three or five days, and I have thoroughly touched the feelings of Jiaxing! ”
Lu Bing said modestly: "The matter within the scope is not enough to worry about!" ”
Chen Di spread out a map of Zhejiang and made a mark on it: "Everyone, please take a look." Jiaxing's widows are headed by dog breeding cattle, with a total of about 30,000. Among them, 5,000 people are stationed in Jiashan, and these 5,000 Japanese are the closest to Suzhou! Another 8,000 people were stationed in Pinghu! Six thousand people are stationed in Haining! There are more than 10,000 people left, stationed in Jiaxing Fucheng! ”
Chen Di paused, and then said: "I am going to lead the Flying Tiger Army to the south and fight these five thousand Japanese in Jiashan first!" Give the Woko a head-on blow! Mr. Tang, how is the training of our Flying Tiger Army? ”
Tang Shunzhi replied: "Firearms are far easier to train than swords, guns, swords, and halberds!" After three to five days of training, the soldiers have become proficient in the use of tiger guns, leech crossbows and grenades! It's just that the artillery battalion composed of 300 people drawn from the Jiangsu Weisu Army is still a little rusty about the control of the Furlong machine gun. But it should be possible to fight too! ”
Chen Di nodded with satisfaction: "No matter how long the training time, it is better to drag it to the battlefield and fight a real battle!" This is the first battle against the Japanese Invaders, and we must win the battle! ”
Yu Dayou replied: "Ahem, with the batch of firearms brought by Zhen Haibo, the current 1,000 Flying Tiger Army is as good as the previous 10,000 Flying Tiger Army!" ”
Qi Jiguang also said: "Yes! I have studied, we can meet the enemy with this tactic. Deal with the enemy in the distance and bombard it quickly with the Furlong machine! When the widow is within 100 steps, he will be beaten with a tiger's might! Get closer, shoot with a leech trap crossbow! Finally, blow up with a grenade! If the three-plate axe goes down, even if the Japanese have three heads and six arms, they can't carry it! ”
Tang Shunzhi said: "After all, there are many Japanese people, and the five thousand Japanese who attacked Jiashan must be guarded against the Japanese in Pinghu, Haining, and Jiaxing Mansion. Besides, we have the Furlong gun, and the Wako also has the Furlong gun! Although our firearms are far superior to the Waikos, I fear that we only have a thousand men, and if the Waiko bombard us with Furlong fast artillery, we simply cannot afford to suffer casualties! ”
Chen Di said: "I have a way to make the Furlong machine cannon of the Japanese invaders useless!" ”
Tang Shunzhi asked: "What way?" ”
Chen Di said: "You can dig a three-foot trench where the firecracker stands. Trenches are dug into ladders. When the gun is released, climb the ladder and jump out of the trench. They fired their cannons, and we went into the trenches! ”
Chen Di said this tactic, but he pondered it for two nights and came up with it. Tang Shunzhi was right, the Flying Tiger Army only had a thousand people, and it couldn't withstand attrition. If you want to guard against the Furlong guns of the Wokos, this is the best way.
