Chapter 194: The two Liu reconciled
To put it bluntly, it is not uncommon for Liu Yun to be unconcerned about cultivation in the past six months, basically fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, and the improvement is indeed not great, but the two senior sisters are different, they can't wait to practice for 36 hours a day, plus they have a good foundation before, and their progress is even more rapid by day.
Yuan Qi'er focuses on music and rhythm, sound and light have always been sharp, and it is most likely to affect people's hearts, as for the eldest grandson Mingyue, it is even more powerful, she can be hypnotized in groups on the banks of Suzhou Creek, and the major is spiritual hypnosis, these two people can complement each other more together, hypnotizing hundreds of students is still a trivial matter.
Moreover, Liu Xiang really does not occupy morality, people are group animals, and there are hundreds of people to set an example first, even if the rest of the people are resistant, they will involuntarily follow the crowd, especially after the victory in the first battle, these student soldiers are used to it, and even take the initiative to participate in tactical planning and formulation.
However, it is normal for him to be unclear about many things in the city, and Liu Yun didn't dare to talk nonsense about the things he guessed, so he had to follow Lao Jiang to see Liu Xiang, Chairman Liu's official residence changed again, this time it was near Phoenix Mountain, but this guy was a little angry when he saw someone.
The loss of a regional capital in three days, as well as nearly 20,000 troops, no one can be happy, as the saying goes, the prime minister's stomach can support the boat, and Liu Xiang is not good at attacking on the spot, so he pulled Lao Jiang's arm and talked and laughed, full of Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang is short, and he completely ignores Liu Yun.
After a period of greetings, Lao Jiang didn't bother to go around in circles, and directly asked Liu Xiang if he knew about the affairs of Maoxian, but Chairman Liu was calm and calm, and said with a bit of righteous words, "Brother Kai-shek, this matter is a few mountain bandits, and it doesn't hinder a big matter, as long as you send a team of patrol police, you can bring him to justice."
Lao Jiang frowned, walked a few laps with a cane, took out a telegram from the sleeve of his robe, and handed it to Liu Xiang without speaking.
After reading it in a hurry, Liu Xiang was still in disbelief, so he watched it three or four times, and after making sure that it was not his own dazzle, he sighed, his body flickered, the telegram fell to the ground, and he collapsed on the rattan chair, but Lao Jiang's face was slightly cold, and motioned to Liu Yun to go and see it himself.
Liu Yun was indeed curious, so he quickly picked up the telegram and read it quickly, which read, "The military commander 313 telegraph, the post department was stationed in Mao County, and from domestic garbage, etc., all links confirmed that the unit has more than 30,000 people, including more than 60 tanks."
Before the telegram was finished, Liu Yun was already stupid, it was really more magical than tricks, it was only three days, and an army of 30,000 people had been gathered, and it was just a matter of tens of thousands of horses in a rich land, but Maoxian County was already sparsely populated, even if all the people were soldiers, there were not many soldiers available.
Of course, Liu Yun is a blind eye, and the account cannot be counted in this way, because of the construction of the railway, the foreign population in the area of Maoxian County has increased by 20,000 or 30,000 out of thin air, and this is also the root cause of the grain shortage in West Sichuan County, and it is naturally easy to recruit a few thousand recruits, and the officers can find them directly from West Sichuan University.
Maoxian itself has nearly 20,000 troops, and before Liu Yun left, he also took out more than 10,000 guns, as long as the three of Changsun Mingyue handled it properly, 30,000 troops could still be pulled up, but these were bad news for Liu Xiang, without more than 100,000 troops, he didn't dare to go to Maoxian to do it.
Maybe dispatching more than 100,000 troops is also a trivial matter, but Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang's reorganization plan is completely ruined, even if they want to encircle and suppress this rebel army, what should they do with money, food and guns, Lao Jiang has already stated that he asked the West Sichuan Arsenal to provide the reorganized ordnance, and now it is a chicken and an egg.
Even if Lao Jiang doesn't remember his past suspicions and asks Wuchang to provide German equipment, transportation alone is a big problem, how long will it take for the equipment to be in place, according to the current attack speed, not to mention three or five months, it only takes ten or so days, this army can hit the city, and it is no wonder that Liu Xiang will be directly paralyzed.
"The bell still needs to be tied to the bell", Chairman Liu finally came back to his senses, this matter is all because of Liu Yun, the final solution, still need to be dealt with by this guy, Liu Xiang completely ignored Lao Jiang beside him, stood up abruptly, grabbed Liu Daguan, and after half a ring, he squeezed out a smile.
"Yicheng Xian nephew, uncle is too anxious, in many things, ignore your feelings, uncle, I'm here to accompany you, as long as you can solve the matter of Maoxian, anything can be discussed, I can divide Maoxian County to you, and give you a number of the reorganization."
Liu Yun didn't dare to agree casually, don't look at Liu Xiang looking pitiful now, if he relieves his breath, he just wants to pretend to be pitiful in front of him, and there is no place to pretend, so he said with tears in his eyes, "Uncle Xiang, you and I are a family, as long as you give an order, the little nephew will not hesitate to go to the soup."
Lao Jiang has covered his forehead, a little unbearable, he can't understand Liu Yun anymore, this guy and Kong Yuling are called the best golden combination in the Republic of China, whether it is firearms and cannons, or special anti-inflammatory drugs, he has never recognized gold and not people, but he is not the master who likes to suffer.
Liu Xiang couldn't take care of much at this time, as long as Liu Yun agreed to calm down Maoxian, so he praised repeatedly, "Good boy, it is worthy of being a good son of my Liu family, it is really a blessing for my Sichuan army to have a talent like you, you scolded Liu Zongyi for being confused before, and you were really right."
Lao Jiang's face turned a little dark, Liu Zongyi is one of the three elders of the Liu family, how could he not know, Liu Yun is his student and protégé, and he actually scolded this old man for being old and confused, it is really going to turn the sky upside down, doesn't it mean that Jiang Weizuo himself is not educated, and he actually taught such a rebellious person.
Before Lao Jiang could get angry, Liu Yun was already crying and fainting, as if he didn't hear Liu Xiang's cynicism, and hurriedly pulled Chairman Liu's trouser legs, and shouted again and again, "The little nephew is a commissioner in West Sichuan County, and the number of times he goes to Mao County is limited, and today's situation is really not the ability of the little nephew."
Liu Xiang was also stunned, and then suddenly reacted, Liu Yun really didn't tell a lie, he studied railway engineering in the United States, and after returning to China, even the county magistrates of Shanghai and Wuhan resigned one by one, with a bunch of equipment, regardless of the cold eyes of everyone, resolutely returned to West Sichuan County to build railways for his hometown.
This innocent heart is amazing and moving, how did the good uncle and nephew get to this point, Liu Xiang also felt very remorseful, reflecting on whether he really did something wrong, it was all the fault of money, if it wasn't for Liu Yun's death asking for money, he wouldn't have made this decision.
"That virtuous nephew, it's too late to say anything today", Liu Xiang is one of the heroes in the world after all, even if he regrets it in his heart, he will not show it on the spot, but instead thinks of a solution, "You rush back immediately, calm down this turmoil as soon as possible, and discuss other things later."
If he was sent back like this, Liu Yun would not agree, so he touched his tears, and then said angrily, "What Uncle Xiang said is very true, it is ridiculous that the ant people dare to riot for a little food, as for how to calm the turmoil in Maoxian, the little nephew also has some ideas, but I don't know whether to say it or not."
Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang glanced at each other slightly, knowing that this guy was going to put forward conditions, and even the capture of Mao County was pushed to the "ant people", who could defeat the ant people of 20,000 troops, they really hadn't heard of it, but they could calm down the matter as soon as possible, and it was a good thing to be able to put forward conditions to do things, but I was afraid that he would not mention any conditions.
Huaxia society is a humane society, as long as the person who does things dares to receive benefits, it means that he will try his best to do things, if he shirks or does not accept benefits, not only can things not be done, but also often secretly obstructs, as the so-called Hades is good to see the little ghost is difficult, Liu Yun can put forward conditions, Liu Xiang is willing to really rest assured.
After all, Liu Yun is younger, and he doesn't know much about the doorway, but this guy has always been honest, and the long-term situation in Ruomao County is not a good thing for anyone, only seeking common ground while reserving differences is the solution to the problem, and it is reasonable to make necessary compromises and concessions to Liu Xiang.
From the beginning of the Tang Dynasty to the end of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, for nearly 1,300 years, Maoxian County was called Maozhou, and then it was called Maozhou City.
Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang did not object, compared to the unruly Liu Yun, Liu Ebei is simply a good man, he agreed directly without saying anything, and then it was a military issue, Liu Daguan believed that there were too many troops in Maoxian, and they could be reorganized into the first and second brigades of western Sichuan.
Liu Xiang was really trembling with anger, what kind of thing is this, saying that he gave this guy the number of a division, but he just wanted two brigades, what is the difference between the establishment of a division, isn't this taking off his pants and farting, but Liu Yun is not satisfied, and wants to reorganize the second brigade into the first brigade of the railway garrison.
"Railway Garrison Brigade", Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang only then reacted, the railway is a new thing, and it really needs the protection of the army, but the first brigade of western Sichuan and the first brigade of the railway garrison are too loud, and they really make people think, no wonder Liu Yun tried to be very hesitant and tactful when he said it.
Finally, there are steel mills and arsenals, Liu Yun believes that the cost of the western Sichuan arsenal is too high, which is indeed not conducive to the reorganization and training of the Sichuan army, so he wants to build a new steel plant and arsenal, and German experts have made a plan, tentatively near Zhangming County, the steel output is twice that of western Sichuan.
The Fucheng Arsenal established in this way will be no worse than the Hanyang Arsenal, and it will be built entirely by German experts, and the quality and output will be absolutely excellent; all the ordnance of the Sichuan army in the future will be manufactured from here, and Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang will jointly own the property rights, and the West Sichuan Iron and Steel Plant will focus on railway construction.
Liu Yun's words were not finished, Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang both spoke out against it, Lao Jiang thought that the plant should not be built at all, it was completely repetitive, and Chongqing Iron and Steel Plant was able to do it, Liu Xiang hesitated for a moment, thought about it before saying, the cycle of the new factory in Zhangming is long, I am afraid that the Sichuan army can not afford to wait.
Regardless of the opposition of Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang, Liu Yun was determined about the construction of the new factory, and he promised that the new arsenal would be completed half a year later, that is, before July 1936, and at the same time, before the new factory was put into operation, West Sichuan would give 5,000 Hanyang-made products every month, and asked Chairman Liu Xiang to accept it with a smile.
In this way, Liu Yun can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, Jiang and Liu have nothing to say, firearms are the real cause of the turmoil in Maoxian County, Liu Xiang pondered and calculated in every way, isn't it just for the West Sichuan Arsenal, now build a larger new factory, let Chairman Liu play by himself.
Liu Xiang's losses were also considered, so he gave 5,000 Hanyang for nothing every month, and after seven or eight months, there were also more than 40,000 firearms, worth more than 3 million silver dollars, which was already rich enough.
