Chapter 106: Overseer's Office
After Ge Yunfei returned to Jinan, he immediately started to deal with the aftermath. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info According to the new deployment, he ordered Li Zhong's 4th Brigade to live in Liaocheng and Heze, and formed a triangular layout with He Zhi and Wang Jiefang to guard the east and west gates of the mountain. Ordered Wang Kun's Third Brigade to be stationed in Weifang and Zibo to be used as a mobile force. The newly formed artillery regiment remained in Jinan, and served as the guard unit of the Jinan garrison, which was the guard unit of the artillery regiment. The reason why the artillery regiment was kept in Jinan was that he wanted to personally train and build an artillery unit.
The battle of Andezhen was devastating, weapons and ammunition were captured, and subordinates clamored for the expansion of troops to ensure the safety of Shandong. Ge Yunfeili disagreed, not to mention that it would cost a lot of money to expand the troops, and if he vigorously developed the armament, it would arouse Yuan Shikai's suspicions, and he must not blindly expand the troops. There is no one way to increase the armed forces, and that is to hide the army and the people. Ge Yunfei ordered all towns that formed a scale to set up police stations and send out seized light weapons to equip police forces.
In addition, the training of the police force is modeled after that of the regular forces, which in turn vigorously trains junior officers. In the event of a war, the police force can be quickly reorganized into a combat force, and then become a combat force. Armed police force, this task was entrusted to the single peak intelligence bureau, planned to gradually form a scale. There are still three years to go before the outbreak of World War I, and there is still plenty of time.
The changes in history seem to have little impact on the city of Jinan. The obvious feature is that there has been a change in the clothing and hairstyle of military and government officials. The people did not forcibly cut their braids, it was all voluntary. Most of the middle-aged and elderly people keep their braids, while young people are very enthusiastic and follow the trend.
Before Ge Yunfei came back, his wife Wenqing and Qiu Ying came to Jinan. Qiu Ying took it upon himself to fall in love with the former general's mansion, which was once the residence of the Manchu Jinan general, and after the Qing court implemented the new policy, the post of Jinan general was abolished, and this government became an official property. The General's Mansion covers an area of about 50 acres, with green trees, carved beams and paintings, small bridges and flowing water, and a small garden inside. In particular, there are several springs in the house, which gush all year round. Ge Yunfei returned to Jinan, Wen Qing and Qiu Ying had already lived in the General's Mansion, and in the face of such a situation, it was difficult to refute Mrs.'s face, so they had to acquiesce.
That morning, Ge Yunfei ran a few laps in the garden, and after the morning exercise, he was ready to go back for breakfast. "Yunfei, don't call me when you get up!" Qiu Ying was dressed in a military uniform and walked towards a female subordinate. Qiu Ying strongly demanded that she be responsible for the security work in the house, and Ge Yunfei agreed or not, there was no room for negotiation at all, so it was decided. Last night, Ge Yunfei went to bed in Qiu Ying's room, or the old rule, rotate every day, so as not to cause disharmony between the wives.
"I see that you sleep so sweetly that I can't bear to disturb you." "In the future, the morning exercise must wake me up, and I will go to the checkpoint to patrol around." Ge Yunfei walked into the living room, and Wen Qing had already asked the maid to put the food on the table. After Qiu Ying came back, he began to eat, "Yunfei, the West Courtyard has set up a gate guard to prevent me from entering, so difficult that Shan Feng doesn't know what he does, and he has to meddle in the affairs of the house?" Qiu Ying was dissatisfied. Shan Feng is not wrong, I asked him to move in. The West Side Courtyard is a forbidden place for the Intelligence Bureau, so you can't just go in. ”
"It turned out that it was your order, no wonder Shan Feng set up a gate. This guy has a lot of power now, and he doesn't seem to look like a good person, which is annoying! "This is the characteristic of his profession, you are not allowed to interfere with him!" "I heard that Hu Boyong led people to clean up the East Side Courtyard, what does he want to do?" "It's none of your business, but you can come and go as you please." "Qiu Ying, Yunfei's identity has changed now, and many things are not known to me and other capable women, so let's settle down!" Wen Qing said softly.
"It's really boring, it's still free in Qiujiazhuang!" "Qiu Ying, you can do whatever you want in the mansion, and you must not interfere in the affairs outside, understand?" "My Overseer, can you be better? Shouting about respecting women every day, this is how you are a teacher? Ge Yunfei shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "You, your temper hasn't changed at all. At this time, Shan Feng walked in and said, "Overseer, the car is ready!" After Ge Yunfei and Shan Feng left, Qiu Ying said mysteriously: "Eldest sister, have you noticed it, Shan Feng is different from before, gloomy," "Yes, I also feel that he is weird." ”
Ge Yunfei and Shan Feng drove to the barracks, and on the way Shan Feng said: "Overseer, according to your arrangement, I sent someone to contact the German Governor in secret, and he appreciates your actions very much, especially in ensuring German interests. Germany is committed to continuing to work closely with us and to support us. The German Governor-General promised that rail transport would give priority to the movement of our military supplies. In addition, the radio purchased through the German Governor has been shipped to Jinan, and the wireless communication liaison between Jinan and Beijing will be completed by the end of the year. ”
"This time, four high-power radio stations were purchased through the German governor, one in Jinan and one in Beijing. The other one is planned to be placed in Shanghai, where are you going to put the last one? "Tohoku, in the future, we will target the Japanese, and Tohoku must have a radio station so that we can grasp information about Tohoku at any time." "Good! I sent someone to set it up. The black sedan entered the barracks, and the guards standing on the pedals outside quickly jumped out of the car and opened the door.
"Report to the overseer, Zhu Ming, the commander of the artillery regiment of the Independent Division, is here to greet you, please instruct!" Zhu Ming, the commander of the artillery regiment who was waiting in the barracks, brought the generals to salute. Ge Yunfei saluted the military in return and said: "Commander Zhu, aren't you shouting that there are no cannons, how about this official not losing his words!" "Hey, hey! The Overseers didn't lose their word, and thanks to Liangbi's generosity, they sent us a large number of cannons. Zhu Ming touched his head and teased. You don't have a single artillery piece from Zhoucun, but in the blink of an eye you have fifty or sixty artillery pieces, and how to make the artillery exert its powerful power is the subject we are facing. ”
Ge Yunfei continued: "Artillery is the god of war, and building a powerful artillery unit is the common wish of this officer and all of you. Commander Zhu, we can seize the cannon, we can buy it, and we can even make it. But for a powerful artillery unit, the human factor is key. Efficient artillery commanders and skilled gunners cannot be trained overnight. In this battle of Ande Town, the first town artillery team, known as the elite division, cannot be said to be unadvanced in artillery, but its combat ability is far behind. ”
"Overseer, as far as I know, the artillery team of the Beiyang New Army, due to financial difficulties, rarely conducts live-fire training, which is the main reason for its combat capability!" "Commander Zhu, I understand what you mean, rest assured, this officer will meet your requirements, and artillery training will never be stingy with money. But I ask you very hard, and in three years I will have an artillery division in front of me. "The Qing Overseers rest assured that their subordinates will definitely live up to their high expectations." Zhu Ming couldn't help but feel his blood boiling when he heard this.
Ge Yunfei greeted the commanders of the artillery regiment and shook hands with everyone cordially. When Ge Yunfei was greeting the commanders, an officer on duty stepped forward to report that all the soldiers had finished lining up. "Overseer, all the officers and soldiers have finished lining up, please instruct!" Ge Yunfei and Zhu Ming walked to the front of the queue. "Listen to my commands, stand upright! At ease! Now I would like to ask the overseer to give a lecture. Ge Yunfei returned the military salute with a solemn expression: "Brothers??????。 “
Ge Yunfei made a sonorous and powerful speech full of enthusiasm and agitation, and after the disbandment of the troops, he accompanied Zhu Ming to see the captured artillery. Walking in front of a 76mm mountain gun, Ge Yunfei stroked the bright cannon body and said, "Look, the cannon is almost new, how about rifling?" "Returning to the Overseers, the rifling is slightly worn, which proves that the Qing artillery rarely conducts live-fire drills." "This can be attested to by the extremely poor accuracy of the artillery of the Qing army in the town of Ande. In the future, my artillery unit will never be like this. “
After that, Ge Yunfei asked Zhu Ming to gather all the officers in the barracks auditorium to give a general explanation of the role of artillery in future wars, and asked the officers to ask questions on the spot. The atmosphere was immediately warm, and the officers spoke enthusiastically, and Ge Yunfei gave fluent answers and had novel views, and his broad and profound professional knowledge made all the officers present admire. In particular, the artillery officers of the former 5th Town bowed and worshipped. Ge Yunfei stayed in the barracks for a day late and observed the artillery drills on the spot.
At dusk, Ge Yunfei returned to the general's mansion exhausted. After dinner, he went to Wen Qing's room to rest. "Yunfei, eldest brother has come to Zhou Village several times, but it just so happens that you are not there. Now that you've made a name for yourself, do you want to go home and see? "Wen Qing, to be honest, the feeling of wanting to go home and see it has always been very strong, but I have to control this desire. Sitting in this position now comes with an even greater responsibility. Besides, now that I want to go home, it will inevitably cause a sensation, and the Yan Mansion in Tianjin will inevitably surface. “
"Wen Qing, there is a good saying, the height is not cold. Now that I have more power, there are more hostile forces. For their safety, it is better not to return home for the time being. "Yes, the lace news is flying all over the sky now, if those reporters know about it, they will definitely make a big fuss, it's scary to think about." "Wenqing, everything I do is for this country, whether it's ruthless or unfilial, it's okay to give up my small family to take care of everyone, it's the only way, I'm not singing high-profile."
"It makes sense, but it's better to be careful. Why don't I go back and inform me of the situation, so that my parents can understand your troubles? "No, your goal is too big, I think it's better to let the second sister go back." At present, the north and the south are in full swing to discuss peace, and soon Yuan Shikai will announce that I will enter Beijing, and you will go with me. "Okay, listen to you. I heard that a new government was formed in the south, but I don't know what happened to Mo Xin! Sister I miss her! ”
"It is estimated that Mo Xin will divorce me soon!" "Divorce?" "Now that I have openly joined Yuan Shikai's camp, the rift between our husband and wife has intensified, and I am afraid that we will become strangers."
"Mo Xin won't be publicly reported, I heard that southern women can publicly report divorce!" "Maybe, this is Mo Xin's right." Seeing that Ge Yunfei was very calm, Wen Qing said: "You don't seem to care? "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, I don't care, let her go."
Ge Yunfei knew in his heart that the newspapers in the south had recently whipped and punished Shandong for openly supporting Yuan Shikai, and the spearhead had been aimed at him, a powerful figure in charge of the military, and characterized him as an opportunist. In the future, he will become more and more "reactionary", and it is inevitable that Mo Xin will leave him completely.
