Chapter Forty-Six: Recognize a Big Brother
"Uncle Zhou, don't worry, such weapons and equipment are fighting a defensive war, and the enemy has no knowledge of our army, if Zhou Shun and they can't win, then take a piece of tofu and kill it!" Mu Han drank tea while looking at the construction of various projects in Baocheng, and said lightly.
"Commander-in-chief! Junzi is not like you who are familiar with military books, full of training, and have studied in overseas military schools! Until the end, I'm really worried! Zhou Da listened to Mu Han's persuasion, and his face was still full of anxiety.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, report to the division commander, our division has returned victoriously from all units participating in the war!" A herald trotted all the way to report.
"Huh! Uncle Zhou, now you can rest assured! ”
Zhou Da heard that he went straight to the door, and saw his son Zhou Shun and others walking towards the regiment headquarters talking and laughing from a distance, and finally took a breath. Mu Han couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at this scene.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, my 51st Regiment, my 52nd Regiment, my 53rd Regiment, the regiment directly under our division headquarters, fortunately fulfilled the mission and returned to the division victoriously!" Pang Hu, Song Liancheng, Zhu Gang, and Zhou Shun shouted in unison, all with smiles on their faces.
"Good! Good! This is the first battle of our Dragon Guard Army after it was secretly formed, and it has been victorious, which is really gratifying! The crow's feet at the corners of Zhou Daxiao's eyes also stretched, and he looked back at Mu Han, but found that he still had a calm face. At this time, everyone gradually restrained their smiles and looked at Mu Han.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Are you surprised to see that I didn't smile when I won the battle? Mu Han said with a slight smile at this time.
Pang Hu, Lian Cheng, Zhu Gang, Zhou Shun and even Zhou Da and others looked at each other and did not speak.
"It stands to reason that our army won the first battle, and we should be happy! But we can't rejoice too soon! Zhou Shun is the main enemy of your department this time, let's talk about the results! ”
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief! In this battle, with the help of the 51st, 52nd, and 53rd regiments, our regiments annihilated a total of more than 12,000 enemies, including more than 9,000 Mongolian troops and more than 2,000 Soviet troops; Nearly 1,000 enemy troops were captured, including about 200 Mongolian troops and about 800 Soviet troops. More than 11,000 rifles of various types, 50 light machine guns, and 30 heavy machine guns were captured, and almost all enemy artillery was destroyed, so no artillery was captured. At the same time, more than 2,000 war horses and nearly 3,000 sabers were captured. No one of our troops was seriously injured or killed in battle, only less than a few dozen soldiers were grazed by stray bullets! Zhou Shun replied fluently.
"Wow!" Rao knew that his army had won the battle, but after such results and battle losses were reported, everyone's jaws dropped in shock. Only Mu Han still looked calm.
"Oh! It's a very good battle of annihilation, and the results are also very fruitful! It is understandable that everyone is excited and happy. Mu Han said unhurriedly.
"Zhou Shun, I'm asking you, how are the troops participating in the war this time? How is the equipment? ”
"This?" Zhou Shun hesitated slightly, but quickly reported: "In this battle, in addition to the armored regiment, heavy artillery troops, flying brigades and left-behind men and horses of our Dragon Fifth Division, the rest of the divisions were all put into battle, totaling more than 20,000 people, including more than 13,000 infantry, all of which are standard weapons of our Dragon Guard, with a semi-automatic rifle and automatic pistol, more than 1,000 light machine guns, more than 500 heavy machine guns, and more than 3,000 submachine guns; There are more than 3,000 artillery members, including 100 60 mortars, 20 rapid-fire guns, 20 75-caliber guns, 20 mountain guns, 10 105-caliber guns, and 10 120-caliber guns; Each regiment dispatched nearly 5,000 cavalry personnel, all of whom were cavalry-standard weapons, each armed with a semi-automatic cavalry rifle, a sabre, and a pistol. ”
"Wow! Wow! Everyone screamed again when they heard this, although it was the weapon configuration of their own team, but it was too amazing to count it like this. Only after Zhou Shun finished speaking, he seemed to understand something, and the smile on his face gradually faded, and his face turned solemn. At this time, Mu Han looked at Zhou Shun's expression and smiled slightly.
"Pang Hu, Song Liancheng, Zhu Gang!" Mu Han suddenly opened his mouth and called out to the three main commanders.
"Here! Arrive! Arrive! ”
"The three of them have served in the Yi Army, the Northeast Army, and the reorganized National Revolutionary Army, so how does the light and heavy firepower configuration of our troops compare with the troops of these forces?" Mu Han asked in a deep voice.
"Of course, it is far beyond the army of the same size, and the ratio of light and heavy firepower of the Dragon Guard Army to our original troops can probably reach 10:1." All three looked at each other and gave the same answer.
"So what is the combat strength of the Mongolian army and the Soviet Russian Red Army that participated in the war this time?" Mu Han asked Zhou Shun again.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, this time our unit suddenly launched an attack while the enemy's foothold was not stable, and the enemy was wiped out almost before he had time to react! Therefore, I can't see how effective the other party is! ”
"Hmmm! Good! Think about it, how much weight does such a victory have? With almost 1:2 enemy troops, 1:100 automatic weapons and 1:20 artillery, combined with the participation of special operations forces and the slightest defenselessness of the enemy, it would be hellish if this battle could not be won! ”
"1:1001:20" two huge proportions, flashed in everyone's minds. What kind of concept is this, it's like one side with a machine gun and the other with a burning stick, and it's not even an adult bullying a child, it's simply incomparable.
"Buzz!" Everyone felt numb in their brains, and almost unanimously lowered their heads.
After a while, Mu Han carefully glanced at the people present and cleared his throat: "Ahem! Well, all heads up! Although this victory has no practical value, this battle is after all the first battle after the secret establishment of our Dragon Guard, and our recruits have also seen blood! It's still a bit rewarding! The reason why I asked that just now is to remind everyone not to get carried away by the victory in front of you and lose the direction of development. As science and technology become more and more advanced, and all kinds of new weapons emerge one after another, if we still stay at the level of previous tactics and tactics, then we may also face the situation of today's Mongolian and Soviet troops in the future. This is by no means alarmist! I hope you will be mentally prepared as soon as possible. Again, we must keep pace with the times, assiduously study new tactics and new tactics, proceed from actual combat, sweat more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime! ”
originally thought that there would be a dark battle, but it ended hastily in the shock of the eyes of all forces.
After the defeat of Yan Laoxi'er in the Central Plains War, Zhang Shaoshuai took over the old department of Feng Yuxiang's Northwest Army. Zhao Yu, who had just been appointed commander of the 109th Brigade of the 19th Division of the 29th Army, led his troops to garrison the Suiyuan and Chahar borders. After receiving the battle report, Zhao Yu had an indescribable feeling in his heart, on the one hand, he was happy that the Chinese had won the battle, and on the other hand, he was uneasy that such a super-powerful army appeared in his jurisdiction.
"Report to the brigade, someone from the Huaishuo Security Corps has come to visit, and they are carrying a large number of heavy items!" Suddenly, a communication soldier came to report, which disrupted Zhao Yu's thoughts.
"Please!"
In the meeting room of the provincial government building in Suiyuan, the capital of Suiyuan. Zhao Yu carefully looked at the young man in his early twenties, dressed in an indigo robe, heroic and handsome. After taking a sip of tea slowly, Zhao Dengyu opened his mouth and asked, "Who is here, and what is the so-called matter of this visit?" ”
Mu Han was also looking at this famous historical general, and saw that Zhao Yu was tall and burly, with a Chinese face, bright eyes, a straight waist, and a standard military sitting posture!
Mu Han nodded secretly in his heart after looking at it: he is worthy of being a famous historical general. In fact, the later generations of Mu Han admired this tiger general who led the 29th Army Broadsword Team to fight the Japanese on the Great Wall in the Battle of Xifengkou.
Looking at the idol-level figures in history, Mu Han calmed down, "General Zhao, Ming people don't say secret words, contemptible Mu Han Rehe people, two years ago, my family began to invest in Baocheng and set up several enterprises. And through the provincial government at that time, the jurisdiction of Baotou and the establishment of a security regiment were obtained. ”
"Oh! I know something about this! Zhao Yu nodded, and then frowned. But your security corps is overstaffed! Also, what is the relationship between the head of the Huaishuo Security Corps and the head of the government and county magistrate, Zhou Da, and you? ”
"Huh! General Zhao, don't hide it, Zhou Da is my father's brother! If you want to do something in troubled times in this life, if you don't have an armed force that can save your life, I'm afraid you will have been spit out by all forces long ago, and there are no bones left, right? Therefore, when I started to buy a house, I operated the number of a local militia group, so as to escort the local security and the people's peace and contentment! ”
"Oh?" As soon as he heard this, Zhao Yu's eyes flashed coldly, Mu Han only felt that his whole body was tight, and he also released an incomparable momentum at the moment, but he was afraid of causing Zhao Yu's dissatisfaction, so he had to withdraw a part of it slightly, and the aura of the two of them was comparable.
"Hahaha! Good! What a promising young man! It is really extraordinary to be able to keep your voice and face in front of me, and to be able to put it away freely! Brother Mu Han is really a real person! I see you sitting and walking, and there are faint traces of soldiers, I don't know where to serve? Zhao Dengyu looked at Mu Han with satisfaction and said.
"Back to General Zhao, the younger brother has studied at the Berlin Military Academy in Germany and the Tokyo Military Academy in Japan for several years, and after returning to China, he also trained a group of retainers and family members." Mu Han thought about it, but still told a certain truth.
"Oh? I didn't expect Brother Mu Han to be a talented person studying abroad! It's just that why don't you enter the ** effect? Zhao Yu asked.
"General Zhao, do you want to hear the truth, or do you want to lie?"
"Of course it's true!" Zhao Yu's expression was clear.
"Well, forgive the little brother for being presumptuous. The first younger brother is from Rehe, not from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the second younger brother is not from Huangpu, and the third younger brother is not used to some flies and dogs within the party-state! ”
After Mu Han finished speaking, the field fell into a terrible silence.
Zhao Dengyu's heart was also shocked, he didn't expect the young man in front of him to have such a sharp vision, and the situation within the Kuomintang was clearly analyzed.
After a while, Zhao Yu suddenly laughed, "Brother is really a hearty person, Zhao admires it!" Admire! Just don't say what you just said in a formal setting! ”
"Hehe, that's natural, the younger brother also respects General Zhao very much, and he doesn't treat you as an ordinary person, so he puts his heart into it!"
"Good! Good! What a heart-to-heart! Brother Muhan is really refreshing! Then let me ask you, what is the result of the battle of the Mongolian bandits? ”
"The little brother is about to report this matter to General Zhao!" With a wave of Mu Han's hand, Zhou Shun, who was dressed as a guard, immediately sent a gift list, and said with a smile: "This is the capture of this battle, and there is a little bit of heart from the younger brother, give it to General Zhao, talk about the heart!" ”
Zhao Yu opened the gift sheet and looked at it, his hands couldn't help shaking, and he saw that it was written: Tribute to General Fu as follows, 1. Capture 10,000 enemy rifles and 200,000 bullets from Mengsu; 100 light machine guns, 50 heavy machine guns, 5 bases of ammunition, 10 75 mountain guns, 10 38mm rapid-fire guns; 1,000 horses and 1,000 sabers. Second, the annual tax revenue of Baocheng is 200,000 oceans.
Mu Han took out another gift box and said with a smile: "The so-called sword for martyrs, and pink for beauties, this is what the younger brother got when he studied abroad, I hope General Zhao will accept it with a smile!" ”
Zhao Yu, whose hands were already trembling, took the gift box and opened it to take a look, and his eyes couldn't help but shine, only to see two exquisite Browning M1900 pistols produced by the original Belgian factory wrapped in red silk in the gift box. Zhao Yu took the gun in his hand and happily played with it for a while before putting it back, looked at the gift list again, and said with emotion: "Brother Mu Han, you have done our 109 Brigade a great favor, and the salary in the past few months has finally been settled." You don't know, my hair is gray these days because of this! With these weapons and ammunition, many brothers don't need to hold big knives and spears! My 109th Brigade can finally change its guns! ”
Zhao Yu paused, looked at Mu Han seriously and said, "Brother Mu Han, the seizure of so many weapons this time is enough for you to pull up a division!" Why would you cut your love? ”
"General Zhao, first, I admire you very much, so I give you these weapons in order to improve the strength of your department, and also make the general have a greater say. Second, all the equipment used by our department is German-style, and the weapons and ammunition are not compatible. My younger brother's family has a little money, and he also has some friendship with overseas merchants, so the weapons I need can be purchased separately. Third, I hope that General Zhao can take more care of his younger brother's industry in Suiyuan in the future. ”
Zhao Yu groaned slightly, "Brother Mu Han, I, Zhao, defend the territory, and when the people are stable under the rule of Bao, but I am afraid that after this battle, Brother Mu Han will make a big move!" The combat power of this security regiment of yours is far more than that of a division, or even an army! I wonder what my brother will do next? ”
"The soldiers are coming, and the water is coming to cover the earth! General Zhao, what do you think of the Japanese? Mu Han said softly and changed the subject.
"Oh, Japan is not small in ambition, and it has long coveted our land incomparably! However, Chairman Chiang has always adhered to the policy of first securing the interior before attacking the outside world. Zhang Shaoshuai was frightened by the Russians after the Middle Road incident, where is the courage to go to war! Besides, the Kuomintang is not monolithic! That's why the Japanese are pressing step by step! This is really a shame for me! The sword is empty, but the temple is far away! Zhao Yu sighed.
"A good sentence of the sword is empty, but the temple is far away! General Zhao, since you are also full of enthusiasm, I can tell you now that as long as no one in the country takes the initiative to provoke me, I will definitely not aim my guns at our compatriots. The armament in my hands is used to defend my family and the country against foreign aggression! I have studied abroad for many years in order to learn from the skills of Yi to control Yi, and after returning to China, I worked hard and hard to pull up an armed force in order to make a difference when foreign enemies come to attack in the future! Mu Han became more and more excited, "Ever since I had my true mind and soul, I have always had a wish, that is, what the great powers have taken from China for decades, I will let them return all the principal and interest; I want the ZH nation to stand on the highest peak in the whole world, and I want all the Chinese in the world to stand tall and proud of their black eyes and yellow skin. ”
Speaking of this, Mu Han sang loudly:
The wolf smoke rises and the country looks north
The dragon curled the horse, and the sword qi was like frost
The heart is like the Yellow River
Who can fight in 20 years
Hatred is mad and the knife is headed
How many siblings are buried in their bones
What a pity to die to repay the family and country
I sighed and was even more speechless, full of blood and tears
The horseshoe goes south and people look north
People look north at the grass and yellow dust
I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory
Dignified China wants to give way to the Quartet
Congratulations"
When the last lyrics were sung, Mu Han's upright figure suddenly burst into an incomparably majestic momentum, and everyone in the audience felt like a boulder was pressed on their chests.
After a while, including Zhao Yu, the people in the field came to their senses, and just looked at Mu Han's eyes with colorful ripples.
"It's a good sentence, China wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate! Today, I can meet a young man like Brother Mu Han, which is my biggest gain! Zhao Yu's flushed face was full of excitement, "If Brother Mu Han doesn't dislike it, Zhao is willing to marry you as a brother of the opposite sex, how about it?" ”
"Ahh How does this make! Mu Han was shocked, he brought almost all the seizures today, and took out 200,000 oceans, just to temporarily stabilize Zhao Yu, so as not to trouble him with the Kuomintang government, but he never dreamed that Zhao Yu would propose to worship him.
"What? Look down on the old brother? Zhao Dengyu's face sank.
"Nope! Of course not! Mu Han hurriedly shook his head and explained: "General Zhao is the commander of the first brigade and an important member of the provincial government, and the younger brother is just a grass citizen, how can he afford it?" ”
Zhao Yu said: "I, Zhao, am a person who makes friends, focusing on being sincere and open-minded, only looking at conduct, not asking about background. Brother Mu Han can put his heart into me, and he is brave enough to be brave, and he has the community in his heart, so he should be my brother Zhao Yu. ”
Mu Han saw that Zhao Yu was full of sincerity, and his heart moved, so he bowed to Zhao Dengyu and shouted, "Big brother!" ”
"Hahaha! Good, good. Zhao Yu was overjoyed and immediately ordered someone to set up a banquet in the living room. After three rounds of drinking, Zhao Yu Zhengse asked: "Brother Mu Hanxian, tell the truth to your eldest brother, why did you put your industry in Suiyuan instead of your hometown Rehe, and how many troops do you have in Suiyuan?" The foolish brother also knows how to do it. ”
Mu Han quickly analyzed it in his mind for a moment, and decided to tell the truth: "Brother Yaochen (Zhao Yuzi Yaochen), don't hide it. From the information I have, Japan will launch a war to invade and occupy the northeast in three or four months, and Rehe also belongs to the northeast's sphere of influence. In order to ensure the safety of the industry, the younger brother secretly trained more than 20,000 people here.
"Ahh Rao is Zhao Yu was a little prepared in his heart, but he was still shocked by Mu Han's words. "Is this true? Will the Japanese really start a war? ”
"It's true!"
"Is there a specific time?"
"This is the top-secret plan of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and no one knows the exact time until it is implemented!"
"That's a bit tricky! If there is conclusive evidence, we can report it to the government, which also avoids our country's complete passivity, but now it is all based on my brother's words, foolish brother, I believe, others may not believe it for sure! ”
"Big brother, do you believe that the government has the guts to start a war with the Japanese? If Chiang Kai-shek had that strategy, would China still be like this? ”
"Brother, are you saying that Chairman Chiang will also swallow his anger and allow the Japanese to occupy the three eastern provinces?"
"Yes, Japan occupies the three eastern provinces, and Chairman Chiang will definitely not go to war. First, the three eastern provinces are the territory of the Feng system, and Chairman Chiang has no power here, and he has no real loss if he loses it. Second, now that Zhang Shaoshuai's Northeast Army is the largest force except for the Central Army, will Chairman Chiang let him continue to grow? Third, Chairman Chiang also graduated from the Japanese Military Academy, and he knew very well that the current combat effectiveness and weaponry were far lower than those of Japan, so he did not dare to fight, because he wanted to break the net with the Japanese, and other domestic forces would soon replace him. Mu Han seriously analyzed to Zhao Yu.
"Hey, I didn't expect even Chairman Jiang to be like this, not to mention our merry young marshal! Misfortune for the country! After listening to Mu Han's meticulous analysis, Zhao Yu sighed.
"Big brother, you don't have to sigh, we don't care what others do, as long as our brothers dare to take responsibility and dare to show their swords to the Japanese, first of all, we are worthy of our own enthusiasm, and we will not come to this world in vain. At that time, when we occupy the great righteousness, there will be more people to support us, and it is not impossible to achieve great things! ”
"Good! What a dare to take responsibility, dare to show the sword! Since the brother has said everything about this, the foolish brother also said something open, as long as the elder brother raises the flag for the national righteousness, the foolish brother will definitely help. ”
"Big brother!" "Virtuous brother!" "Let's do another bowl!"
