Hu Conglu smiled shyly, took out a cigarette from his coat pocket and handed it to Zhang Xinghai. They both lit cigarettes and walked together to the camp headquarters.

The 2nd Regiment was all stationed on the outskirts of the city, and there were no private houses, all large combination tents. Now the weather is fine, and there is nothing for the army except for mosquitoes and living in tents. Gaoyang strictly prohibits disturbing the people.

Walking into the battalion headquarters, the battalion commander Hu Bo, who was writing some documents, raised his head and saw the two of them coming in, grinning and saying, "Yo, Senior Staff Officer Hu is here, what kind of wind is blowing today." ”

"Hey, hey." Hu Conglu smiled, then took out the order book and handed it to Hu Bo.

Zhang Xinghai and Hu Bo looked at each other after reading the order, Zhang Xinghai took a cigarette and said in a deep voice, "Xiaohu, what do you want to do when you transfer troops?" ”

Hu Conglu found an ammunition box and sat down, and said softly, "It's the Overseer's own order!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Hu Conglu obviously felt that the expressions of the two people in front of him were tense, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to be serious.

His heart tightened, he straightened his back, and Hu Conglu said with a serious face: "The overseer personally ordered to arrest the Qing Gang tycoon Boss Huang!" To take him to court! ”

Zhang Xinghai frowned: "Do you want to live?" ”

"Yes, alive." Hu Conglu nodded in response.

"Huang Daheng is the inspector of the French Concession, if we arrest him, then the French," Hu Bo said worriedly.

Hu Conglu interrupted Hu Bo's words and said in a deep voice: "Camp Commander Hu! I don't care what the French think! All I know is that I must fulfill the orders given by the Overseers! ”

Hu Bo smiled wryly, his face a little embarrassed. Being reprimanded by a lieutenant made him feel quite shameless. But what Hu Conglu said, he couldn't refute it.

Zhang Xinghai saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room, so he hurriedly laughed a few times and said, "Okay, okay, everyone is doing things for the overseer." Staff Officer Hu, tell me what you want us to do. ”

Hu Conglu also reacted, and understood that his words were a little too much, so he smiled embarrassedly and said, "I think so, select a group of elite soldiers to secretly enter the French Concession. I had been to the magic capital once before I was admitted to the Military Academy, and it was not difficult to quietly bring a group of people into the French Concession. It's okay to bring weapons in, but it costs a little more! ”

Seeing that the two people in front of him had already snuffed out their cigarettes, he hurriedly took out the cigarette from his coat pocket and handed it to the two people in front of him, lit one for himself, and then said, "I will apply for an operation fund when I go back to report the plan to Chief of Staff Weix, this matter is not important." ”

Spit out the smoke ring and continued: "After waiting for people and weapons to go in, they will ambush near Huang Daheng's residence, and wait until three o'clock in the morning when people are most sleepy, and directly kill Huang Daheng alive!" ”

Hu Bo frowned and said, "It's easy to kill, the elite soldiers of our battalion are easy to deal with those little deflated three." It's just"

Zhang Xinghai on the side answered: "It's just that how did we come out after we succeeded?" ”

Hu Bo nodded and continued: "The time for action must be fast, there are patrols in the French Concession!" Although we are not afraid of the French, the task of Overseer is the most important thing. But try not to cause trouble to the Overseers as much as possible. ”

Hu Conglu nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes, it's not difficult to catch. Huang Daheng's ability to protect his residence in the French Concession is impossible to stop our elite soldiers. The trouble is the French. My idea is that the action must be done within 10 minutes. The last time I was in the Magic City, I was overheard that the French night patrols were not very active at night, and spent most of their time in the barracks. I calculated, how could it take more than 20 minutes for them to get to Huang Daheng's residence after receiving the news! ”

He stood up from the ammunition box and continued: "We will complete the task in 10 minutes, and immediately retreat in the direction of Suzhou Creek!" The remaining officers and men of the first battalion were to be deployed on the side of the Chinese boundary of the Suzhou Creek and prepare to receive the boats. The mission is successful, everyone retreats together, if you are bitten by the patrol"

A trace of coldness flashed in Hu Conglu's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Then fire!" Bring everyone back, alive or dead, and I'll personally go and ask the Overseers for the rest! ”

Zhang Xinghai stood up, patted Hu Conglu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the guys in our battalion will definitely complete the task on time." I'll personally lead the team to do it in the evening! Okay, now let's work out the specifics of the action. ”

At this time, in the garrison command, Weix was refining his new army reorganization plan after the meeting.

Wilks sat in his chair, pen in hand, scribbling and revising his plan. This time, a total of twelve divisions were obtained! It's a lot of work.

It is necessary to divide the supplementary regiments of the 6th and 19th Divisions into the new units, but we must not only throw all the new recruits out of the army, but also transfer veterans from the old units to serve as the backbone of the new units. How much to transfer, which troop veterans to transfer, these need to be arranged by Weix!

In addition, there are weapons and equipment, all kinds of military supplies, daily expenses, garrison camps, the formulation of salaries and benefits for officers and soldiers, and so on. Weix, whose head hurt when he thought about things, kept grabbing his hair.

It's okay to say anything else, but the most important thing is that there aren't so many officers! With so many troops expanded at one time, there is an extreme shortage of both senior officers and junior officers!

The senior officer said that it was good to hand it over to Gao Yang to arrange it directly, which was originally a right that Gao Yang could have. But what to do with the large number of vacant positions for rank and file officers? You can't just promote a veteran, right?

Brandt, who was helping him, walked up to him with the papers and said with a smile: "Are you still worried about the affairs of the officer?" ”

Throwing down the pen, Weix opened the cigar box on the table, lit one for himself and Brandt, and said with a slightly depressed voice, "With so many establishments expanded at one time, there are simply not enough qualified officers!" I don't know what to do now. ”

Brandt sat down and said with a smile, "There's one more thing you haven't considered. ”

"Huh?" Wiecs gave him a surprised look.

"And our business, we Germans come to mercenary contracts that always expire. What to do then? How many people do you think will be able to renew their contracts? Also, I see that the High Overseers are no longer willing to continue recruiting mercenaries from Germany, so what should we do then? Brandt said with a serious face.

Wilks rubbed his forehead and said, "I know it!" We were of great help to the High Overseers in the early stages. However, it is clear that the High Overseer cannot keep us as the main officers! We are foreigners after all! To use a slang phrase here, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different! ”

"We instructors should be able to stay a little longer, but what about those who are serving in the military now? Return? Brandt asked in a deep voice.

Weix stood up and said irritably, "Don't talk about this now, there will be a while, wait until the time comes." Now let's think about how to solve the problem of officers. ”

Brandt smiled and said, "The officer's problem is actually not difficult to solve. ”

"Huh? What's your best idea? Weix's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

Brandt stood up and said with a smile, "You forget, there are more than 1,000 cadets in the Nanjing Military Academy, and they are all the best low-level officers." And they are all ideal candidates in the heart of the High Overseer. ”

Weix was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, no, they're just rookies who have been studying for a few months!" There is simply no ability to serve directly! ”

Brandt laughed, took a cigar in his mouth and said, "You came earlier than me, but you don't know as much about the Chinese as I do!" You think they are rookies, that's because you measure them by the standards of our German army! This does not apply in China! Here, we can't even recruit enough students! ”

"And, most importantly," he said, looking at Wicks earnestly, "you don't know anything about the High Overseer!" ”

"What do you mean?" Weix asked in surprise.

"I can't explain the specifics to you, I can only tell you that as long as you send the report recommending that the cadets of the Military Academy graduate early and become the junior officers of the newly formed unit, it will definitely be approved!" Brandt said with a serious face.

Wilks was silent.

"Now the army of the High Governor has been firmly imprinted with the imprint of our German army, and they are all our students! Our influence in the military has reached a point where even the High Overseers have to face it squarely! Brandt said a little helplessly.

Wicks was silent, and suddenly said, "Could it be that the High Overseer made the navy fully British?"

Stoke nodded slightly, "Not exactly, but there is also this factor in it!" ”

In modern time and space, Gao Yang is queuing up in the bubble tea shop, and there are a lot of people at this time. Gao Yang completely relaxed himself with the mentality of a tourist, and took out his mobile phone to take a panoramic view of the bubble tea shop. After queuing for more than ten minutes, I ordered a cup of milk tea, and found a vacant seat with a few Hong Kong-style pastries to sit down and eat.

After Gao Yang finished eating the pastries, he walked around the streets of Hong Kong with milk tea, just like a tourist shopping with great interest. When I saw a beautiful attraction, I took out my mobile phone to take a photo, and when I saw a beautiful girl dressed coolly, Gao Yang would also cast a look at it, pouting and thinking that it was far worse than my little crystal. People who are in love only have their lovers in their eyes, and now in Gao Yang's heart, only Xiao Jing is the best.

Gao Yang finally met the legendary Crazy Boys. Selling pirated copies on the roadside, setting up stalls, many of them are uncle-level, if it weren't for the tattoos and scars on these uncles, Gao Yang wouldn't believe that this is the legendary old boys!
