Chapter 149: One to the Red Army
Liu Yun's big truth, both Ochre and Zheng still understood, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, for the prospect of establishing the Red Air Force, a little uneasy, as far as the Red Army is concerned, even a rifle can not be guaranteed in one hand, what kind of high-tech arms do you want to engage in, is it really okay.
Liu Yun smiled slightly, and helped them come up with bad ideas, "Two big brothers, in fact, the Air Force is not so mysterious, since the Nanjing government can do it, you actually have more advantages, such as cultural level, there is no certain cultural foundation, I am afraid that few people even know who Marx is, let alone understand Marx's thoughts and propositions, the Air Force can't even look at the instrument."
Ochre and Zheng thought about it, is this really the case, no matter how difficult the flight instruments of the Air Force are, it is still difficult to learn Russian and French, in the entire ranks of the Red Army, there are a large number of intellectuals, and they may not be good at fighting, but they are experts in solving this kind of problems, and they are much better than ordinary people.
Seeing that the two of them had regained their confidence, Liu Yun was also very happy, so he stretched out two fingers and analyzed them one by one, "A complete flight wing has more than 3,000 people, but the real pilots are less than 100 people, I don't believe in the 300,000 Red Army, and I can't even select a few hundred people, not to mention that I have 40,000 compatriots in China, and it is impossible that there are not even a few thousand pilots."
The two of them were stunned for a while, and then they thought about it, and the fact is that even if they set up three or five flying wings, there are only three or four hundred pilots, and not only can they directly select people from various units, but they can also slowly train candidates from various colleges and universities.
There is no need for Liu Yun to say anything else, Zhe Wenhe can already make a decision, looking at Liu Yun's eyes, he asked with some hesitation, "Brother Liu, in this way, a flying wing, no, how about cultivating a flying squadron first, these people will be the seeds of the Red Air Force in the future."
Looking at the eager eyes of Ochre Zheng and Zheng, Liu Yun didn't want to disappoint them, so he squinted his eyes and thought about it repeatedly before he responded, "Yes, but I have three suggestions, one is the trained people, it is better to have more people, and it is better to have about a hundred people."
"Secondly, not only to train pilots, but to participate in training together with flight, ground crew, medical and maintenance personnel, it is best to form a reduced flight wing, which can be expanded into a standard wing if needed, and can also form a red aviation school."
"Aviation School", Ochre Zheng and the others couldn't help but shrink their eyes, they really didn't expect that this layer, a mini flying wing, wouldn't it happen to be the cradle of the Red Air Force, from then on the Red Army could continuously cultivate new blood, and even form several flying wings.
Liu Yun hesitated for a moment, and said the last suggestion very cautiously, "I want to set up a joint military academy, with Sichuan West County, the Germans and you, to form a new type of military academy, the scale does not need to be too large, mainly to train mechanized army, inland water army and air force."
Ochre and Zheng were also shocked, and some looked at Liu Yun again, are they not satisfied with their current status, and they also want to be the king of Sichuan, the king of Xikang, or the second old Jiang, the two finally wanted to talk and stopped, after all, it was Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang, which was not a bad thing for the Red Army.
Zheng Yuanxing was a little uneasy, and his interest in Liu Yun was greatly reduced, so he went on business and continued his unfinished work, "Brother Liu, we will report this matter to our superiors, and then talk about the specific issue of cooperation, at present, I don't know if you have any opinions on the matter we borrowed."
Liu Yun is not a fool, where do you know, Chief Zheng has an opinion on him, but he is also inexplicable, how to say that he will turn his face, is it a matter of forming a joint military academy, he thinks that he has done nothing wrong, the mechanized army and air force, can it be built if it is built.
If nothing else, let's just say that the armored forces and air force of the Nanjing government have not yet exerted much power during the three-month Battle of Songhu, and they were either directly blown up on the ground by the Japanese army, or passively beaten and consumed alive, and the root cause was the lack of corresponding operational concepts.
This operational concept cannot be learned by reading a few military works, it requires repeated argumentation and practice, and the scale does not need to be too large, but it requires the participation of people who have actually been on the battlefield and have actual combat experience, and it must also conform to the basic national conditions and the feelings of the people in China.
Originally, the national army that participated in the Great Wall War of Resistance was Liu Yun's best collaborator, but this guy was arrogant, and when he saw the lazy and lazy national army, he always felt that he lacked some connotation, and suspected that even if he trained well, there would still be problems in playing on the battlefield, so he hoped to cooperate with the Red Army.
Since Zheng Yuanxing is unwilling to cooperate, Liu Yun is not forced, fortunately, there are not only Jia Lian, a qualified general, but also more than a dozen veterans such as Sun Zhixiong, it is enough to train an integrated regiment, but it is a big deal that it will take a little longer, anyway, there are still a few years before the Japanese army fully invades China.
I don't know if time and space have really changed, Liu Yun clearly remembered that during the Long March, Chief Zheng did not hold the position of the Red Fourth Front Army, but after the Long March, when he helped Zhang Guotao clean up the mess, he held a little position, but when he was in the Eighth Route Army, he was in charge of the rest of Zhang Guotao.
Liu Yun is not a nosy person, since Zheng Yuanxing said that he wanted to borrow the Tao, then it was good to borrow the Tao, and said that the establishment of a military academy needed to be considered, so he thought about it, and made a gentleman's agreement with Chief Zheng, and when the Red Seventh Regiment passed through West Sichuan County, he tried his best to provide convenience for them.
Zheng Yuanxing was a resolute and resolute person, and the day after reaching an agreement with Liu Yun, the Red Seventh Regiment drove over from Jinghua County (Dajinchuan), and Liu Daguan did not shy away from it, and directly led a group of officials to welcome the Red Army into western Sichuan County, and the guards had already removed the guards.
Pang Yuyan led the medical staff of the West Sichuan County Hospital to treat the wounds of many Red Army soldiers who had not recovered from their old wounds, while Liu Yun used the excuse that the soldiers were weak and could not resist, and the reinforcements from Maoxian County could not quench their thirst, so the gentry in the town contributed food and money to avoid causing some unnecessary disputes.
It is said that the local tyrants and inferior gentry want money and don't want to die, but when they saw that thousands of Red Army troops entered the town, they were all frightened, and they didn't need Liu Yun to say it in detail, they all consciously and voluntarily took out money and food, which seemed to be more than what Liu Daguan had apportioned, which was enough to supply the Red Seventh Regiment to attack Maoxian.
Zheng Yuanxing was a man of his word, and he strictly ordered his subordinates not to enter and leave the barracks at will, and even refused the dozens of villas provided by Liu Yun one by one, but instead asked the Red Army soldiers to take turns to visit the town and the iron and steel plant in western Sichuan as a company unit to explain the revolutionary ideas and the meaning of battle.
The Red Seventh Regiment rested in the town for three days, the soldiers did not eat the people's food in vain, after visiting and educating, not only fell in love with the small town in western Sichuan, but also helped the people do rough work, some of the soldiers also participated in mining, steelmaking and power generation, and even took the initiative to help repair the road, so that the road from West Sichuan County to Mao County was smoother, and the people gradually liked them.
Liu Yun was not idle, while trying his best to stabilize people's hearts, he ordered ant robots to help the Red Army make weapons, and he did not dare to make too advanced things, mainly Hanyang-made, shell pistols, Czech light machine guns and 82 mortars, as well as all kinds of bullets and shells.
When the Red Army was about to be launched, Liu Yun secretly sent hundreds of freshly baked military uniforms, 600 Hanyang-made rifles, 60 machine guns, 100 pistols, 12 mortars, more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition, a number of artillery shells, and more than 200 mules and horses to the Red Seventh Regiment at night.
Seeing the mountains of urgently needed materials, all the commanders and fighters of the Red Seventh Regiment looked at each other and were overjoyed.
Zheng Yuanxing also had a big headache, anything can be faked, guns and ammunition can not be faked, this is a murderous weapon, the Red Army has these equipment in hand, even if it immediately expands another regiment, it is also a trivial matter, and finally has to admit that Liu Yun is a red capitalist with a heart for the Red Army.
Zheng Yuanxing just wanted to apologize to Liu Yun, and this guy put forward his idea, "Commanders of the Red Army, I am now a special commissioner in West Sichuan County, after you leave, we who are officials, but it is difficult to be a person, see if we can leave some torn clothes, or broken weapons and other things."
Zheng Zhen and the others were old rivers and lakes, and they immediately knew the true thoughts of this guy, so they immediately ordered the Red Army soldiers to leave some of the shabby clothes, preferably the blood-stained ones, as well as tattered rifles and broadswords, anyway, with new weapons, the old ones are not used.
With Zheng Yuanxing's order, the Red Seventh Regiment basically changed its outfits, and the old clothes and weapons that were changed, except for some left for Liu Yun, the others were carefully collected, which also made Liu Daguan sigh for a while, and the Red Army at this time was really difficult.
The Red Seventh Regiment drove to Maoxian County at night, but Liu Yun ordered the guards to arrange a bunch of tattered clothes and weapons on some predetermined "battlefields" to make it look like they had fought to the death with the Red Army, and then lit strings of firecrackers in the night, and everything was alive.
When Liu Yun returned to the villa with the guards and the new Liu Mansion in the villa, a group of officials and gentry came out to greet them collectively, and they were all in tears, all of whom regarded Liu Daguan as their parents, and the prestige of the Red Army spread far and wide in Sichuan, especially the policy of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the land", which made them even more frightened.
Liu Yun is busy these days, regardless of the risk of cutting off his head, he personally dealt with the Red Army, they themselves were weak just by seeing it, and they really had to sigh at the courage of this guy, so they had to appease the emotions of the officials and gentry one by one, and took them to raise money and food to make military uniforms, and really sent the Red Army away smoothly and steadily, and there was no turmoil in the middle.
There may be a few smart people who suspect that Liu Yun and the Red Army are in a group, but who believes it, don't forget that this guy is already the biggest official in the county, and if something happens, both the Red Army and Liu Xiang will cut off his head, not to mention who wants to mix with the Red Army as the situation deteriorates.
Liu Yun has become a fine guy, seeing the officials and gentry greeted each other with tears, but pretended to be forced, looked lonely, sighed, bowed and thanked the officials and gentry for their love, he decided to go home and think about it behind closed doors, waiting for the arrival of the new Qin Mission, if he wants to kill the head, he will bear it himself.
All of a sudden, the officials and gentry were shocked, and in a blink of an eye, the Red Army rested for three days in western Sichuan County, and it was absolutely impossible to contain the fire, and it was inevitable that Shangfeng would be blamed.
