Chapter Twenty-Four: Sickert Comes to China

He Jianye did not go there during the New Year's family visit holiday, even if he came to Nanjing for more than 1 year, he did not go around in Nanjing, and the famous landscapes in the memory, such as Qingliang Mountain, Purple Mountain, Zhonghua Gate, Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Xuanwu Lake, etc., have not come and appreciated, after all, the ancestor is seriously ill, he plans to stay at home to practice boxing every day, talk to his mother and ancestor, and the senior sister can also accompany him to pass the trick when he is empty, and the little lotus He Qingya at home is also more and more watery, and experience a little warmth. He Jianye, who lives in a sweet day, is really happy to learn.

Seeing that the annual leave was about to pass, He Jianye still hadn't figured out how to use the money in his hand to provide greater help for resisting Japanese aggression in the future, there was no way! Taking advantage of the relatively stable domestic economic environment, He Jianye instructed Lin Bo to build several granaries in Qingjiang, and took advantage of the farmers' bumper grain harvest this year to carry out a large-scale grain harvesting activity, which can be regarded as a reserve of materials for the Anti-Japanese War in advance!

Unconsciously school will start tomorrow, Shizu's condition still has not improved, and the senior sister is also worried all day long, and her body is gradually haggard.

At the Central Army Military Academy, the cadets stood neatly on the playground, the chief of education, General Zhang Zhizhong, came in person today, and the students and instructors stood straight under the stage, waiting for the speech of the chief of education!

"Students, in the past year, you have achieved quite good results, here I want to congratulate the students, but you are still far from a qualified grassroots officer, you are only a little more than a year away from graduation and stepping into the army, I hope that the students can work harder to make up for their shortcomings in the remaining time, this year our military academy will also invite the officers of the German military advisory group to give you a lesson, I hope you can base yourself on the present, look forward to the future, Many of you will be the pillars of the nation and the cornerstone of the army. As for the ranking of the assessment results of the last school year that you are concerned about, it has been posted, and I believe many students have seen it; I would like to announce that the top five students in last year's assessment will be eligible to go to Germany for exchange study, but if you who have already obtained a place do not work hard in the next training and study, then it is very likely that they will be disqualified. Of course, don't panic, before the list of final military exchanges in Germany in June comes out, all of you will have the opportunity, as long as you train hard and study hard, you will get this opportunity to be focused on by the school instructors and the officers of the German Military Advisory Corps. ”

General Zhang Zhizhong, who finished speaking, stepped down amid the warm applause of the cadets, and the military academy's study plan for the new year began again, and He Jianye, who was training and studying at the military academy, still practiced boxing diligently every day, although there was still no sense of qi, but He Jianye had clearly felt the growth of his physical functions, and his strength, muscle reaction speed, endurance, and so on had increased significantly. The time soon came to May 1933, and a week passed, and the students whose homes were in Nanjing went home one after another, and the students who were not in Nanjing went out to play in pairs.

He Jianye went home like an otaku as usual, this year because He Jianye was going to Germany for exchange and study, his family never returned to Qingjiang when he came to Nanjing, only Lin Bo returned to Qingjiang to take care of business, and the eldest brother occasionally ran outside for a while, but many times He Jianye would see the eldest brother when he went home. He Jianye returned home, and after meeting his mother and eldest brother, he went to the patriarch's room to visit the patriarch as usual, and found that the patriarch's condition seemed to be serious again, and the coughed up phlegm was already bloodshot! After having dinner, He Jianye went back to the room early to sleep in desperation, and after the green shoots in the room fell asleep, He Jianye held the mentality of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and cut a cut on his hand again, and entered the house-like pattern on his stomach according to the old method. This time He Jianye didn't know whether it was because of his mood or because his body function had improved after practicing breathing recently, He Jianye didn't feel as cold as the first time, He Jianye walked through the entire warehouse area and found that this area was about 5000 square meters, and most of the warehouses were opened, which were full of all kinds of frozen meat or semi-finished unpackaged meat cooked food, and found a place that should be an employee's rest room on the edge of the warehouse where the ham was found last time, and there were some things in a mess, and He Jianye didn't take a closer look. I've been praying in my heart that there will be no pharmacy here! It would be nice if there was a pharmacy, with this purpose, He Jianye specially shuttled through various warehouses, looking for various rooms, and was no longer interested in various refrigerated warehouses with thick freezing air. Seeing that he was about to find the entire warehouse area and did not find the pharmacy, He Jianye was about to be disappointed, suddenly, He Jianye found a building next to a cold storage that was obviously illegal in the eyes of later generations, a small freezer, very abruptly established in the position of the garbage station that should have been the meat product wholesale market in the later generations, He Jianye walked over cautiously, went in to see, ecstasy instantly filled his heart, God! Drugstore! Although it seems to be a very small pharmacy in later generations, he violently opened the iron door of the room and entered it to see, a small room of less than 5 square meters was placed in a table, there was a pile of books next to the table, and on the wall of the room was a simple medicine cabinet with a lot of medicines on it, He Jianye, who did not understand the use of various medicines, did not dare to move, perhaps because the whole space was full of cold air. Or is the sealing of this room not good, He Jianye is looking for antibiotics for future generations, penicillin for injection? "Damn, this is an old product from that era? Forget it, it's unreliable, look for it again. "Roxithromycin?" This seems to be a cure for respiratory diseases, so take a box first. "Amoxicillin?" This one also takes a box of "cephalosporin?" "This is good, take so much first, I don't know if I can take it out?" He Jianye was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take things out, so he removed the packaging, filled 3 kinds of medicines in a small paper bag in the pharmacy and walked outside. Walking to the place where he came in, He Jianye kept praying in his heart, "Let me take it out!" Even if it's just 1 bag. ”

"Ding Dong!" He Jianye, who retreated, fell to the ground, felt that he was about to fall asleep, and pinched his thighs hard, trying to be a little sober, He Jianye found that the 3 white bags in his hands were still there, and immediately walked to the bedroom, put the white bags under the pillow, and fell asleep with his head on the pillow!

He Jianye, who entered the land of sleep, completely lost any feeling, Zhi felt that this sleep was unprecedentedly sweet, until He Jianye woke up and found that it was noon, He Jianye, who got up, still felt very sleepy, He Jianye, who washed his face with water, tried to make himself sober, and went to Shizu's room with 3 bags of capsules in his hand, He Jianye in a hurry opened the white pouch and was about to take two pills of roxithromycin for Shizu, and when he saw it, the capsules inside didn't know what was going on, and the capsules outside were gone. The rest were small particles of various colors, and the dumbfounded He Jianye opened the other two bags and saw that this was the case. I don't know how much to give to my ancestor! I just know that the dosage of roxithromycin is about 2 grains, and the dosage of cephalosporin is 2-4 grains, which is about 1/18 of the total number of small particles, and I only have to ask someone to weigh the small scale of the medicine to measure it, divide the medicine respectively, and tell the ancestor and the sister that this medicine is the United States itself wrote to ask an American friend to bring it from the United States, specifically to treat the illness of the ancestor, and fooled the ancestor to finish the medicine and tell the senior sister that if it is effective, after eating these 2 bags of medicine and then taking the third bag of medicine, this time it is 1/20, all three times a day. After saying this, He Jianye put down the medicine. endured the hunger in his stomach and went back to sleep, until Lin Lao Er came to tell him that it was time to go to school, He Jianye brought some cooked food from home, got into the car and dealt with two people in the car and rushed to school. Lin Lao Er looked at He Jianye, who was gobbling up, and thought, "It's not good to have too many wives!" Look at this day and night, the second young master is tired, and he is hungry."

After getting off the bus at the school gate, He Jianye dragged his lead-like legs and walked to the school dormitory, and when he was washing, he found that he didn't know when the small wound on his hand had healed automatically in a day. (Nonsense, with his pain-feared character, how big a wound does he dare to make?) The classmates in the dormitory hadn't come back yet, and He Jianye, who arrived at the school two hours earlier, didn't turn on the lights, and just fell asleep in bed.

The next morning, after almost 30 hours of sleep, He Jianye felt less tired, got up early in the morning and practiced breathing in bed. He Jianye, who practiced for half an hour more than usual, got up in the wake-up number to wash up and tidy up housekeeping. I went to the morning exercise with my dormitory classmates. On the playground after the morning exercise, the instructors informed all the trainees to dress uniformly after breakfast and prepare to participate in the morning ceremony to welcome the head of the German military advisory group to the school.

In the morning, in the playground of the Central Army Military Academy, all the cadets and instructors stood neatly on the playground, and a row of microphones were placed on the rostrum. General Zhang Zhizhong, the chief of education, took the lead on the rostrum, followed by a large wave of generals, among whom General Zhang Zhizhong was followed by an old foreign officer.

"Students, today I am honored to invite the former Commander-in-Chief of the German Wehrmacht, Army General Johannes Friedrich Leopard von Sickert, General Sickert came to China last week, met with the president and submitted the "Army Reform Proposal", which was approved by the president, and the German military advisory group will complete the reorganization of our army under the leadership of General Sickert, based on the third recommendation of General Sickert. General Sickert decided to lead the members of the German military advisory group to the Central Army Military Academy to open a course, focusing on cultivating the combat potential of our Whampoa soldiers and improving the quality of grassroots officers. A translator next to him was working dutifully, not daring to slack off.

"Gentlemen, I have come to China, a mysterious and ancient country, to help you, your current situation is worrying, your army is not yet a qualified modern army, the quality of soldiers is generally low, I led the officer corps to help you build a qualified national defense force, of course, if you want to establish a modern national defense force in one step, according to the current situation in China, it is not possible, But I will try to turn some of your so-called elite troops into an army that can be on a par with the German light infantry divisions, and Mr. Chiang told me: This is the cradle of the junior officers of your Wehrmacht, so I have decided to first send my members of the officer corps to give courses here, and try to cultivate your military qualities and combat potential. Let's work together, lads! General Sickt ended his speech full of disdain.

Under the leadership of the instructors, the cadet brigades still gave warm applause, but the applause was not as continuous and loud as General Zhang Zhizhong's speech!

"Okay, the cadet brigades are scattered according to the established teaching plan and start training." Zhang Zhizhong, the chief of education, saw that the Germans were so faceless, and he couldn't hold it on his face, so he gave the order to dissolve with a gloomy face.

Time flies very quickly under the hard training of the students, everyone knows whether they can go to Germany or not depends on the last 1 month, in the first weekend after General Sickett came to the military academy to speak, most of the students did not go out to play, in the school in twos and threes to train their weak links, He Jianye, who was worried about his heart, ran home directly home, and after going home with his mother and eldest brother, he went directly to the master's bedroom, wanting to see if the antibiotics in the future generations have any effect.

"Bang bang bang" He Jianye knocked softly on the door of Huang Hongyi's room,

"Come in," Huang Hongyi's voice came.

"Hmm, why does Shizu's voice sound so much better than last time?" He Jianye, who was full of doubts, pushed open the door and went in to see that the ancestor was no longer lying on the bed, and was sitting on a chair drinking tea. The senior sister is also not in the room to take care of.

"Master, are you well?" He Jianye asked with joy,

"It's still a bit painful to breathe, especially at dusk! It's a lot better than before, though, and the medicine you brought is very effective. Huang Hongyi said with a smile,

"It's good if it works, Master. However, an American friend said that this medicine cannot be taken for a long time, otherwise it will reduce the body's own resistance. He Jianye said,

"Well, the doctor has been coming a lot recently, and the Chinese medicine has not been broken, so you don't have to worry about this. Besides, as long as the old injuries in the body can be suppressed, as long as there are no problems in the body, the body's resistance will slowly recover. "Huang Hongyi doesn't care,

"Then master, you rest first, I'll go back to wash up first, and I'll come back to see you later." He Jianye, who was in a good mood, returned to the courtyard relaxed after washing up, humming a small tune and waiting for dinner time to come.

After dinner, in the study of He Fuchu, the two brothers He Fuchu and He Jianye were discussing the use of a large amount of idle funds in their family.

"Second brother, looking at the momentum of this year, the income of our fertilizer plant will greatly exceed that of last year, do you have any plans? If you don't have any plans, I plan to buy land around Qingjiang and buy a lot of land. He Fuchu said with a sense of wealth and arrogance,

"Big brother, can you ask the government, can we invest in minerals and open mines? I looked at the information and found that the mineral resources around Qingjiang in Jiangxi are very rich! There are many resources such as coal, iron, copper, tin, rare earths, etc.! He Jianye said,

"Well, the income from mining is indeed very large, but the investment in this area is very large, according to the current financial strength of our family, we can open a small coal yard and power plant at most, as for the follow-up steel mill there is no financial support, mainly because the cost of equipment purchase is too large, and the factory land and labor are small." He Fuchu frowned and said, "As for the government's approval, it is very easy to get, and it should not be a problem to find a time to visit Minister He Yingqin." ”

"Big brother, my plan is to build a steel mill in Geling, southeast of the Qingjiang River, relying on the mountain, it is best to dig a large space inside the mountain, and then build a coal yard and power plant around it, as for the water source, relying on the tributaries of the Ganjiang River, it is not a problem here at all." He Jianye said,

"Second brother, what are you going to do! Go up the mountain and be the king of the mountain? It's not easy for the country to train you! Feel your wings stiff and want to rebel? He Fuchu said with a frightened face,

"Big brother, you're thinking too much, I'm thinking about it! Sooner or later, the Japanese will launch another military operation in Shanghai, and then invade China, and once they do, it will definitely be a big operation, and our national defense forces will not be able to stop it in the short term. Our Jiangxi will definitely be devastated by the Japanese, the He family has a lot of industries around Qingjiang, we can follow the government, what about the industry? I had to give it to the Japanese, didn't I plan in advance, so that the people hired by us to work for us would have a good place to go, where they could escape the war? Geling is located in a hilly area, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. At that time, the Japanese will not make a big fuss about us little mosquitoes! Won't our family property be preserved? "He Jianye flickered He Fuchudao,

"Then it doesn't have to be so early! Even if the Japanese want to fight, they won't be able to fight in three or five years! The army of the Nationalist Government is not vegetarian either! Shall we wait for the Japanese to start a war before we prepare? He Fuchu said with confidence on his face,

"Big brother, take precautions and prepare early! Now take advantage of the cheap labor and the grain harvest to not build construction, and then they will all flee the chaos, where to find someone? He Jianye continued to flicker,

"I think it's still unstable, besides, Geling is a holy place of Daomen, so it's not so easy for them to let us build a lot there." He Fuchu's face was confused,

"Big brother, go and discuss with the head of the Dao Sect in Ge Ling! It's a big deal, let's donate more sesame oil. He Jianye spared no effort to persuade the eldest brother,

"Forget it, let's not talk about it yet. Recently, I will see if I can go to Minister He's palace to meet and ask Minister He's opinion. He Fuchu sighed.

"You go back and rest first! There's no hurry! You're still studying in peace, by the way, how are you practicing German? He Fuchu asked,

"I'm still learning, and I'm basically no problem communicating in daily life, but I'm not very proficient yet, and I'm still learning. Then I'll go back first. After He Jianye finished replying, he saw that it was useless to fool his eldest brother to open a coal mine and power plant in Geling today, so he said goodbye and went back to the house.

In fact, with the in-depth practice and progress of the breathing method, He Jianye himself did not find that his learning ability had improved greatly, so he didn't forget it! Anyway, he can quickly remember what he wants to learn, and his learning efficiency is at least three times higher than that of his classmates, which is most intuitively reflected in the learning of German, after almost half a year of study, he can basically communicate in daily life, although he is not proficient, but it is not easy.

At night, before going to bed, he entered the space on his stomach as usual, and helped the master take out the antibiotics according to the amount last time, He Jianye was still very sleepy, but the next morning he was able to wake up under the call of the biological clock and insist on the training of breathing, although he still felt very tired in the morning, but it was much better than last time.

In the first week of June 1933, the instructors of the military academy announced that they would carry out military exercises under the supervision of the German military advisory group in half a month to test the tactical and practical combat level of the cadets and determine the final list of exchanges to Germany; With the announcement of the instructor, the study and training of the cadets of each brigade have become more desperate, but for He Jianye, he already has the foundation of studying at the Virginia Military Academy in the United States, and the spiritual baptism of those anti-Japanese TV dramas in later generations, as well as the various analyses of World War II by various military experts in various military programs in later generations.

On the weekend of the first week, He Jianye, who returned home, saw that the state of the ancestor was basically the same as before he was not injured, He Jianye decided to ask the master tomorrow morning when the doctor came, to see if he could continue to recuperate by traditional Chinese medicine, after all, he had been taking antibiotics for almost half a month, and he was afraid that there would be problems with the ancestor's body, after all, the things taken out there, after so long, I don't know if there are any side effects, let alone if there are any side effects.

After dinner, He Jianye was in the eldest brother's study, and was told by the eldest brother to go to Minister He's mansion with him tomorrow afternoon to determine the relevant issues of going to Germany.

At night, He Jianye fell asleep after exercising and washing up in boxing, and was woken up by the voice that came once a month in his sleep.

"Boy, it's been a good day! Life is good! For the sake of your recent good performance and the determination of the relationship between two beautiful women, I will send you some benefits. The voice in my heart teased,

"Cut, what benefits do you have, just don't torture me. Let's discuss, how about this benefit offset the torture on me in the future? "He Jianye whimsically opened the way,

"The beauty you think, the revenge is not avenged, I will not disappear, or that sentence, you don't want me to torture you anymore, you will complete my obsession." The voice in his heart said hatefully, "If you're in a bad mood, tell you directly!" Whether you want to benefit or not, I see that the breathing method you practice is not sensitive enough to external induction, resulting in your little progress, I can help you! I can get out of your mind and into your body, and direct your senses in your body as you practice breathing, so that your progress will be much faster. What do you think of this? ”

"Yes, yes!" He Jianye, who always wanted to improve his strength, immediately responded,

"But first of all, you have to relax your whole body for 3 minutes before and after each breathing practice, and you are not allowed to think cranky, and your mind is ethereal. Otherwise, I won't help you. The voice in my heart said solemnly,

"Okay, no problem." After He Jianye, who didn't think about it, finished answering, he gradually fell asleep.
