Chapter 156: Dig deep

Guangzhou's "Ben Xuan" was overcrowded, and it was full of soldiers of the Free Army wearing military uniforms. Although there are many people here, they are not noisy, even if someone is drunk, they will leave quietly, and no one dares to make a mess here.

can make a group of soldiers so well-behaved, it's not that the boss is awesome, it's not that there are people above the boss, the boss here is just a few disabled soldiers who have retired from the army, and they are just ordinary officers and soldiers before they retire, and they are not.

All the diners who come in are soldiers, because this place is only open to soldiers, and the reason why both generals and soldiers like to come here is that the food here tastes really good, and on the other hand, they come here to eat with a pilgrimage mentality.

In the corner of the hall there was a table facing the counter, which was always clean, and even if the other places were overcrowded, there would be absolutely no one sitting here, because this table was reserved for their commander-in-chief, who had not been here for two years, but this table had always had a place.

"Hey, hey! This is where the headmaster soaked his wife, and we have the opportunity to make a pilgrimage today! Wang Zhanyuan, commander of the Second Division of the Border Guards, said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is where the headmaster and his wife meet!" Duan Qirui corrected with a straight face.

"Okay, don't talk about it, everyone come in and sit!" Wang Shizhen waved his hand to let a group of officers outside in.

More than 200 cadets of the Tianjin Army Military Academy have all served in the army, the worst of which is the rank of major, and the best Duan Qirui is the rank of major general. Pro-novel book name + black * rock * cabinet can watch the fastest chapter without bullet windows for free

Today, they gathered together to eat here, on the one hand, to pay respects to the holy land of the army, on the other hand, to celebrate, and then to see off a group of classmates who were leaving Guangzhou.

Wang Zhanyuan, Tian Zhongyu, He Zonglian, and Wang Yuanfeng were all division commanders of the frontier defense division, as well as a group of regiment commanders and battalion commanders who left with them, a total of fifty or sixty people.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, it was a whimsical braggadocio, and a group of young people became high-ranking officers in the army so easily without experiencing any setbacks, and they were no longer reserved in the pleasure of wine, pointing to each other and touting the shining stars on the epaulettes.

Feng Guozhang watched everyone praise each other, and then saw that he had nothing on his shoulders, he couldn't help but feel sad, he didn't understand why he didn't get the arrangement, he had been awarded several times by the commander-in-chief in the military academy, and was known as a fierce general with many stars.

"Look at your chatter, who was worried and uneasy when you were in Tianjin? Now that I've just been promoted a little bit, I'm getting nervous! Wang Shizhen saw Feng Guozhang's unhappiness, and shouted at everyone.

Feng Guozhang is relatively old among these officers, he is thirty years old, as the saying goes, he stands at thirty, but Feng Guozhang shook his head, glanced at everyone and said: "I said that you can't be too proud, you must suppress the restlessness in your heart and make some achievements on the battlefield." I estimate that a series of regulations on the establishment of the army will be promulgated soon, and they are very detailed, and even if the division of the border guard force you belong to is a small establishment, its combat strength cannot reach that of a regiment of the First Group Army, and it is even more incomparable with the special operations troops, so you must pay close attention to the army and make some achievements! ”

Everyone saw that Feng Guozhang was a little unhappy, and then they thought that he was assigned to the command class of the military academy this time and was not promoted, and they were all quiet, and they didn't know how to comfort them for a while.

Duan Qirui looked at them and smiled and said, "Okay, don't look at Guozhang with this look, you can't compare to his future!" To be honest, my ideal is to charge into battle on the battlefield, but I understand that I am not this material, so the commander-in-chief let me enter the Military Discipline Council, although I am now higher in rank than you, but my promotion has almost come to an end, at best I am a lieutenant general. ”

After Duan Qirui finished speaking, he was not frustrated, but he just felt that his highest ideal at the beginning was just a town president, but now it is in one step, "Guozhang has entered the command class for further study, Shizhen has entered the special operations unit, and the future development of the two of them in our group is the best." Therefore, you should not be proud, but supervise the army well, strive to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and grab military merits, this is what you should do, not be proud here. To put it bluntly, our gang is stained with the light of the army's new construction and no reserves, if it is in the development of more than ten years, it would be good to be able to mix a second lieutenant with people like you and me who have just graduated from the military academy and entered the army, and it is impossible to step up to the position of major and colonel like now! So don't think that if you sit in a tight position, if you don't make progress, you will be brushed at any time! ”

Duan Qirui is a member of the Military Commission, and he will definitely know more than himself, so no one dares not listen to what he says.

Duan Qirui looked at everyone and put away that arrogant expression, nodded and said, "I hope you all have to keep one thing in mind, in your heart, the principal will always be the first!" When you enter the army, you must strictly abide by military rules and become a role model in the whole army, so that your chances of promotion will definitely be greater than others! Because strictly speaking, we are the first batch of officers trained by the principal himself! ”

With the passage of time, the governments of the southern Qing Dynasty not only did not decrease, but also increased.

On September 20, the New York Times republished an article published in 1885 entitled "The Great Oriental", and this time Li Yi was completely exposed to the people of the world. Li Yi, who caused a sensation in the West in 1885, is the same person as Li Yi, the supreme leader of the current southern government.

As soon as the New York Times article was published, countries around the world dug up the reports on Li Yi a few years ago. Many politicians have also made comments in the newspapers, saying that the government had sold too many advanced technologies and factories to Li Yi in the first place.

For a time, there were fierce remarks criticizing the government everywhere, and the United States Sihai Group no longer had the possibility of stable development, and not only American politicians demanded the dismantling of the Sihai Group, but even Britain and France and other countries have been demanding that the US Government break up and sell the Sihai Group.

"Although we have made a lot of statements and asked the congressmen we have always supported, it is all useless, the US government has decided to break up our group!" Hughes said in a bit of a panic. He would never have imagined that such a huge business empire would suddenly be in danger of collapsing.

Shucai was not flustered and uneasy, because only she knew that Li Yi had said two years ago that he would start selling all the assets of the Sihai Group in the United States in 1889, and this time he publicly stood up and stepped into the front of the stage, which fully showed that he was fully prepared, and he only needed to accompany him to finish a play, "Those people on the list have been transferred, right?" ”
