Chapter 45: The Security Corps

The eight hard-working students are: Wang Tingzhen, Zhang Shaozeng, Jiang Yanxing, Lu Jin, Li Shirui, Li Zejun, Jia Binqing, and Zhang Hongkui. They don't have military status anymore, but does Hu care about that? What he lacks is talent. As long as it's talent, he wants it. Even if the ghost is talented, he will accept it.

Hu Xiaoyan stood on the far left: "Turn left and walk in unison." ”

Hu Xiaoyan led the team to the station of the security regiment. I met Wang Yue at the station.

Wang Yue didn't want to stay here any longer. He was forty years old, and although he was also a high-ranking officer, and had also received training from German officers, he was a little old after all, and he was wounded. Let him lead the team to train, I really can't afford to hurt it. After training every day, he is the first to lie down.

In the presence of Hu Xiaoyan, Wang Yue and others completed the handover of the security group, and then took the one hundred taels of notes written by Hu Xiaoyan and went to receive the silver happily.

Wang Tingjiao was directly appointed by Hu Xiaoyan as the head of the security regiment because he was a student who led the team, and according to the rank of the German army, he should have been a colonel or lieutenant colonel, but it was easy to cause contradictions when they first arrived to distinguish these eight people. Therefore, all eight of them were appointed captains and company commanders. And Wang Tingjiao is the captain and the temporary head of the regiment.

With the cadet cadet, he officially announced the establishment of a military school. Hu Xiaoyan considered himself the principal, and eight non-commissioned officers and students were instructors. And the cadets will be selected and recommended from among the soldiers in the future.

Every company is super supernumerary. Each platoon is 100 people, and three are lined up in a company.

A total of eight companies were discharged. So there were two thousand four hundred. All 2,400 men were infantry. In addition, there was an artillery platoon of a hundred people. There were only two cannons in total. The platoon commander of this artillery platoon is Chen Chunyuan, the son of the old man Chen Xin. The old man Chen Xin has no children, and Chen Chunyuan was passed on. After Chen Chunyuan came here with his mother, he was arranged by Hu Xiaoyan into the special forces. But one day the security regiment ** was seen by him. He entered the artillery platoon with a straight face.

Chen Chunyuan understands words and arithmetic. It's also quite diligent. followed Wang Yue and others to learn artillery, and they also learned similarly. So Hu Xiaoyan simply ordered him to lead the artillery platoon.

Men who don't love spears and cannons?

Plus a logistics platoon of two hundred people. The entire security corps is already 2,700 people. Plus 2,500 security policemen. There are more than 5,000 people in the entire security corps.

And the commander of this unit is currently only a captain Wang Tingjiao.

Hu Xiaoyan made everything clear, and convened a meeting of the adjutants. Let Wang Tingjiao and other eight people write the training plan. Although Hu Xiaoyan has a large number of people, there is a serious shortage of guns.

From Nie Shicheng, he only got 3,000 Mauser black powder rifles and 1,000 Austrian-made Manlisha rifles, which were not bad, and they were smokeless gunpowder weapons. But its performance is known even to people who know nothing about history. Because there is no name left in history at all, and it is also a weapon of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It's no wonder how good it can be. The German Mauser had only completed the design in 1898, and Austria-Hungary's scientific research capabilities were not as good as those of Germany. However, this gun has one advantage, and that is the structure, which is a good idea for beginners to know their weapons. Of course, there is no need to think about the specific accuracy and rate of fire. Far inferior to the Russian Mosinagan rifle.

That is to say, although Hu Xiaoyan temporarily has 5,000 soldiers, the only rifles that can really be used are 1,000 dispensable rifles and 3,000 training guns. But the regular army can at least have a training gun, which is better than the security police patrolling the business community with sticks.

Hu Xiaoyan had no choice but to comfort himself like this.

Of course, 2,000 soldiers were only on the books. At present, there are only 3,000 real soldiers, 500 after the elimination of the security regiment, plus 500 out of 5,000 miners. Now there are only a thousand real soldiers. The remaining 1,400 people need to be picked by Wang Tingjiao and others.

Early the next morning, Wang Tingjiao took out the training syllabus. Hu Xiaoyan didn't even look at it, so he signed his name.

This made the young Wang Tingjiao very angry: "It took me a night to write the training outline, and you didn't even read a word!" ”

"I didn't go to military school! No matter how wonderful what you wrote, I don't understand! As a supervisor, I just need to help you manage the logistics. You are an expert in training, and it certainly makes sense that you spent a night writing a good outline. What does it matter if I watch it or not? Do you want me to be blind? Hu Xiaoyan replied eloquently.

Wang Tingjiao was stunned for a moment, then slowly retrieved the outline, and after making a report, his body straightened and walked out with a pace. The pace is unusually firm.

Because Hu Xiaoyan is a staunch German fan, he places great emphasis on the elite soldier policy. Before the start of World War II, how many troops were there in Germany? But within a few months, a million-strong army was emerging from Germany. Every unit is pulled out and it is elite. How does this explain? Very simple. In the early days of the German army, it was not soldiers who were trained. They train their soldiers as non-commissioned officers. Every soldier pulled out can be a competent platoon commander or even a company commander.

Therefore, after the soldiers were recruited, these platoon commanders took them for simple training, and after a baptism of artillery fire, these recruits immediately became elite veterans. The so-called soldiers are bearing, and they will be bears in a nest. and the courage of a soldier. An excellent low-level officer can bring out a company that can fight.

Therefore, whether it is the British army or the German army, during World War II, the casualty rate of low-ranking officers is often incomprehensible to the officers of the Republic of China.

Although Hu Xiaoyan didn't read Wang Tingjiao's training outline, he knew that Wang had written it after revising and perfecting the outline he had drawn up before. Therefore, there is no need for Hu Xiaoyan to see it at all. He believed that the non-commissioned officers and students who had been trained by German instructors in the Tianjin Military Academy could perfectly understand his training ideas.

Hu Xiaoyan flipped through the report on the logistics supply of the barracks in his hand. He wrote it yesterday. Because he's going abroad, he has to set rules for everything.

Each soldier had three meals a day, a piece of meat at noon and a slice of fish in the evening. Although no one can only share a small piece. But this is already the limit of what Hu Xiaoyan can do. His old man can't afford to cut off his kidney and sell it now, but it's a pity that he can't sell his kidney in this era. Because no one is going to have a kidney replacement.

Thinking of money, Hu Xiaoyan couldn't help sighing. He has a real headache now, and he doesn't know if this trip to Europe will be able to complete the set tasks. If he can't do it, he will have to pull the flag and rebel. Because only rebellion can grab a lot of money.

Hu Xiaoyan, who had no choice, had to come to a camp next to the barracks. There were about fifty elite soldiers guarding with guns. The first thing inside the camp is a large open space. But the clearing was enclosed by a very high wooden wall.

There's nothing else here, just two planes.

The 1898 airplane was a rarity. It's just that Hu Xiaoyan has long known that the future belongs to the world of aircraft. So when he is a little more stable, he will get Chen Ronggui back from the market. Let him organize eight or nine college students to start working on airplanes.

It's just a pity that there is no mechanical engineering and engine major here. Although Hu Xiaoyan drew a basic airplane pattern. But the crowd still couldn't make it. This is normal. Diesel engines are still only on paper, and the stability is not very good. Although some people have created diesel engines, they are only the product of the laboratory and cannot be used well in cars and airplanes. In 1898, even the first Ford cars had not yet been manufactured.

So from the beginning, Hu Xiaoyan did not expect to build a thermally powered aircraft. What he wanted to build was an artificially powered airplane. It's that the power underneath the plane with a wooden frame is powered by a reinforced version of the bike. The driver sat inside and frantically pedaled the foot pedal. Power the plane.

When Hu Xiaoyan passed through the sentry post and came to the factory, he saw a group of people looking at a thing that was barely an airplane with sad faces.

Hu Xiaoyan took a closer look, and it was an airplane made of thick cardboard.

Layers of waste paper were wrapped around a very thin wooden board.

Just look at the way they look and know that they still failed. The plane can't fly, and the most critical problem is actually power. Whatever direction of the wings is empty. As long as the power is sufficient, even a plane with a crooked neck can fly. It's just that it won't fly far before it falls.

But the reality is that it is a wooden plane, and it costs one or two hundred pounds in a small plane, plus the weight of the pilot, a total of at least 200-250 pounds of weight for an airplane. Two hundred pounds is still paper and thin wood chips to make an airplane. It doesn't seem like much weight, but it's important to know that his power is powered by a person pedaling a bicycle! When the bicycle is running, the wings on both sides are made of paper-wrapped wooden strips. So they began to be swayed by the wind. There are also people who unconsciously push hard left and right when riding a bicycle. This results in poor stability of the aircraft.

When the plane flies into the sky, step on the left foot and the right foot. It is easy to cause the instability of the aircraft, which can cause the aircraft to lose its balance and fall down.

Hu Xiaoyan asked. And so it was. The discounted plane also flew a few steps. It's just a pity that in order to save weight, they let a skinny boy be the driver. As a result, the kid got tired before the plane could fly. If you change people, at most the plane will fly dozens of centimeters away from the air, and then either the power will be insufficient and it will fall, or the plane will not be balanced well and hit the wall.

In short, the situation is strange. Hu Xiaoyan reluctantly comforted them and left the aircraft research institute.

and so on. He called a meeting of all the managers.

Including Li Jingmai (mayor of Lieshan Town), Wang Tingjiao, Tao Chengzhang (overseeing the overall situation, sitting in Suzhou County), and representatives of college students.

After announcing that he was going to Europe, he had to face a lot of complaints.

Li Jingmai hopes to get more funds, although Enming has just issued a document requiring enterprises in Anhui Province to only use local coal mines in Anhui. But the construction of the new town still requires a lot of money. For example, the number of schools is too small, and the number of factories is too small...... In short, there is less of everything, that is, there are a lot of people.

Wang Tingjiao didn't say much at the first meeting, just said: I want a Mauser rifle.

Your sister's, Mauser rifles, and the German regular army have not yet completed their redressing, and they are all lacking in their own country. Where to buy it.

Hu Xiaoyan scolded him for a bloody sprinkler and gave an answer: "Wait until I come back from Europe." ”

Wang Tingjiao didn't blink his eyes, just silently wiped the saliva off his face. sat down quietly, which made Hu Xiaoyan a little embarrassed. So with a wave of his hand, he sent Wang Tingjiao a hardcover edition of "The Rise of a Great Power".

And Tao Chengzhang didn't ask for money, but took out 3,000 taels of subsidies to Li Jingmai. He sat in Suzhou County, took a lot of benefits, and got a lot of taxes from the county government. In addition to the taxes paid by the county government, all the other parts that should have been greedy for ink were borrowed by Tao Chengzhang, and he even wrote an IOU, but he was embarrassed, the borrower on the IOU was Tao Chengzhang's name. There is neither a repayment date nor collateral.

The prefectural magistrate cried when he got the IOU. He's meow, you, Tao Chengzhang, are just a civilian, and you have no identity to sign this IOU, and you have no name to come to the county government to borrow money. How the hell can I get this money back? I can't make any money by killing you and selling meat.

Tao Chengzhang, a staunch reactionary, took a firm stand, and he calmly led the police to empty the warehouse of the county government, which is now probably gone without rats.
