Just after the Spring Festival, Xiao Mubai got a long-awaited news. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Because of the irreconcilable contradiction between Cui Xiangkui, the commander of the 19th Town, and Li Jingxi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, the War Department of the Qing government officially transferred Cui Xiangkui from the post of commander of the 19th Town. This also meant that the year-long feud between the two ended in a complete defeat for Choi Sang-kyu.

The people in the officialdom walked the tea and cooled at this moment, and no one cared about whether Cui Xiangkui went or stayed, and their attention at this time was all focused on the people who took over the control of the nineteen towns. When Cui Xiangkui left Yunnan, only Xiao Mubai went to see him off, which made Cui Xiangkui feel emotional, there is a way to see the truth in adversity, when he was in control, he was in charge of the army, and there were countless people who flattered and stammered every day, but today there is only one Xiao Mubai, who is not very deep, came to see him off, and the world is so cold. In this regard, Cui Xiangkui was only secretly grateful in his heart.

Xiao Mubai didn't think as much as Cui Xiangkui. The purpose of going by himself is very simple, although the two have a general friendship, but in any case, it can be regarded as a colleague, and it is natural for him to go to see each other off. However, what Xiao Mubai didn't expect was that because of his behavior this time, he finally accepted a favor from Cui Xiangkui, and in the telegram sent to the War Department later, Cui Xiangkui strongly recommended him as the new commander of the Nineteen Towns.

Half a month later, the official letter from the Ministry of War appointing the new commander officially arrived in Kunming, and to everyone's surprise, the new commander was Xiao Mubai, the 38th co-ordinator. Of course, for this news, there are naturally some people who are happy and some who are worried. Li Jingxi was not dissatisfied with this, after all, Xiao Mubai, a young man, felt quite good about him, and he didn't hear any rumors about him. It's that Jin Yunpeng is not very honest, and some time ago I heard that the dictatorship is selfish.

Xiao Mubai's appointment was issued so quickly, although it was not unrelated to the money given to Yixuan and Zaitao, but more importantly, it was because of one person, this person was Zaifeng, the regent of the Xuantong Dynasty. Since he became the regent after chasing ducks on the shelves, Zaifeng has always been honest and fearful, and he has worked hard. After Cui Xiangkui stepped down from the nineteen towns this time, there were endless debates about the candidates for the new system, and at this time, his younger brother Zaitao, who had never been in tune, actually launched a candidate to himself, and it was rare that Prince Qing Yixuan actually agreed with this candidate.

Curious, Zaifeng checked Xiao Mubai's information. When he saw that this person had the experience of studying in Germany, perhaps because he had been to Germany in his early years, Zaifeng couldn't help but feel good. When he saw that Xiao Mubai graduated from the Berlin Military Academy in the information, Zaifeng couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. Others don't know what that means, how could I not know that as a person who went to Germany in my early years, it is known as the cradle of generals!

Seeing this, Zaifeng has already made a decision in his heart, not to mention that this person is innocent and does not belong to any faction. Although this Xiao Mu is a little younger, this is not a big deal, he is only 28 years old now, and he is not also the regent of the Qing Dynasty.

Just after Xiao Mubai took over the control, a series of adjustments began in the nineteen towns. Wang Zhenji, the commander of the 37th Association, was transferred to the general office of the Military Garrison Department, and his position was taken over by Qu Tongfeng, while the position of the 38th Association after Xiao Mubai left was taken over by Cai Yi, the famous "general who protects the country" in later generations. Immediately afterwards, Li Hongxiang and Luo Peijin, who had secretly joined the Communist Party before, served as the 75th standard and the 74th standard respectively, and Xiao Mubai's old subordinate Yan Weidong also came out this time, and served as the 73rd standard band, as for the 76th standard standard, it was still that Ding Jin, this person was extremely hostile to the revolution, and Xiao Mubai had to keep him under his nose for easy monitoring and control.

After this adjustment, it can be said that the Communist Progressive Party has basically completed its control of the 19th Town of the newly built Army. Although Qu Tongfeng is the leader of the 37th Association on the surface, it is unknown whether the two standards of 73 and 74 under him can listen to him at the critical moment.

Despite this, Xiao Mubai was still as cautious and cautious as ever, not to mention that there were still some Beiyang officers in the Nineteen Towns who were hostile to the revolution, such as General Senator Jin Yunpeng, and even Li Jingxi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, should not be underestimated. He didn't want to make any mistakes at this time, and the boat capsized in the gutter.

The good news doesn't stop there, he originally received a telegram from Zhao Mingchuan, which made Xiao Mubai still wonder a little, why did a telegram come over at this time, could something major happen? It wasn't until after reading the newspaper that Xiao Mubai laughed heartily. It turned out that Zhao Mingchuan sent a telegram saying that in about half a year, the Chengdu-Kunming Railway could be completed and opened to traffic.

Hearing the news, Xiao Mubai was simply ecstatic, this is even more joyful. However, at the same time, Xiao Mubai was also puzzled by the news from Zhao Mingchuan, remembering that in another time and space, New China had concentrated more than 300,000 manpower and spent six years to build it, why it was almost completed after only a year and a half.

In fact, Xiao Mubai has fallen into the empirical dogma of the original time and space. You know, in that time and space, New China did invest 300,000 troops and spent six years to build the Chengdu-Kunming Railway, but that included surveying, determining the construction route, etc., and even more, there were four years in the middle of a special period. How can he be like now, with ready-made materials in his hands, survey road map paper, the only thing missing is the appropriate scale of road construction workers, but this is not a matter for China in this era, at this time, China is not lacking people.

At the same time, hundreds of kilometers away in Quang Nam, a great event also happened at this time, that is, the newly established automobile factory successfully manufactured the first off-road truck with a load of 5 tons and was named "Zhonghua" brand.

After receiving this news, Xiao Mubai just asked the factory to step up production, without any sound on the surface, but he was already ecstatic in his heart, such a car may not be anything in the future, but in this era when everything depends on human and animal power, it is an epoch-making sign. This is a big step forward for the mechanization of the army.

Today's joint defense team, although it still bears the name of the joint defense team, is no longer Wuxia Ameng. Only those who really know it understand the horror of this force, and those inside know that the joint defense team can now sweep across the whole of Yunnan at any time. Because of the actions of exterminating mountain bandits and ambushing horse bandits in the early days, the joint defense unit has trained a large number of veterans who have experienced actual combat; although such battles are nothing, they have trained a large number of outstanding grassroots officers with good psychological quality and flexible combat skills.

It is precisely because of so many outstanding grassroots officers that Xiao Mubai was able to secretly expand the army of two divisions in Panzhihua and Guangnan in one go.

After several years of development and construction, the strength in Xiao Mubai's hands is already very different from four years ago. Regardless of the Huamei Group in the United States, the industrial output value of the Huasheng Group alone has increased from hundreds of thousands of dollars at the beginning to tens of millions of dollars now, and a large number of products, such as shampoos, skin lotions and other high-end products, have been sold to Europe and the United States through the sales channels of the Huamei Group in the United States. It is precisely because of this that under Xiao Mubai's deliberate concealment, people in China only know that this emerging enterprise is very large, with abundant funds and countless factories, but they know very little about other aspects.

The people of Quang Nam are happy, and the cultivation of new rice in Quang Nam has accounted for 67 percent of the cultivated land, and the problem of grain, which has plagued the people for thousands of years, has been fundamentally solved in Quang Nam. The abundance of high-yield grain and industrial income gave the Communist Party a solid foundation. After several years of systematic education, Xiao Mubai's original stipulation of tightening his belt and forcing school-age children to study has now begun to bear fruit, and a large number of students who have undergone systematic education have graduated in batches and entered the factory workshops and the secret army of the Communist Party in the mountains.
