Chapter 10: The Conspiracy of Two Persons
"Yes, I said Wenge, Liu Bang is the emperor, and you want to be the emperor too?" Xiao Guodong was happy when he saw Song Zhewu, and he was also very happy, so he deliberately made fun of him.
"Aren't I happy, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Song Zhewu's words were indeed a little inappropriate, and he was a little embarrassed. Xiao Guodong saw that Song Zhewu was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly diverted the topic.
"Wenge, there have been a lot of things recently, and you have to give me some things to tell me, so as not to deviate from what I do. Specifically, there are 5 things. What happened to this attack with the participation of the Northwest Army? Shang Zhen's attitude towards us. How will the troops be expanded? Are the special forces you are talking about now ready to be formed? There is also the question of which direction we want to develop in the future. ”
Song Zhewu put away his smile, Xiao Guodong was right, many things must be clarified, especially the development direction of this army in the future, but many things cannot be said at present, to be exact, it is difficult to say. Song Zhewu just wanted to take advantage of his own knowledge of the historical trend to take precautions, prepare in advance, and lay out before the event occurred. To win the greatest benefit for himself, after the start of the Anti-Japanese War, he will have greater strength and give the little devil the biggest blow. Song Zhewu decided to answer one by one, so as to buy himself more time and make up more reasonable reasons for sensitive questions.
"Okay, Brother Xiao, I'll answer you from the beginning one by one. First of all, this bandit attack has the problem of the participation of the so-called Northwest Army. In fact, it was not the Northwest Army, but the troops of Sun Dianying of the Twelfth Army. Song Zhewu saw Xiao Guodong's look of surprise, and continued: "The Twelfth Army was ordered to go to the Songshan area to suppress bandits, and here it was a battalion of troops. Because the battalion commander was an old acquaintance with the bandit leader, and the bandit leader said that our convoy had brought a large amount of ocean and a box of gold bars. It can be determined that this battalion was only passing by and seeing that it was interested in getting rich, so it joined in. Where are they going? Why wear the costume of the Northwest Army? We captured the deputy commander of this battalion, who is now seriously injured and unconscious, and when we return to Laiyuan, we will learn more about the situation. Rather, where did these bandits get the false news that we have brought a large sum of money, and it needs to be brought to our attention. From the analysis of the fact that the bandits said that we had a box of gold bars, I guess it was me. Although we shipped a lot of things this time, but there was only one box, which was to contain the color enhancer for printing and dyeing, and in Tianjin, I even paid 3 million to buy it, and only I was very interested in him now. ”
Song Zhewu handed Xiao Guodong a cigarette, picked one up himself, lit it for Xiao Guodong and himself, and continued: "Shang Zhen's visit to Tianjin this time has two purposes, one is to win us over, and the other is to arrange a place for the four supplementary regiments he has recruited. Shang Zhen has been excluded in the Jin Sui army because he is not from Shanxi, nor is he Yan Laoxi's old department, and this time he became the chairman of Hebei Province, and he must want to take the opportunity to stand on his own. But his own strength is limited, Zhang Yinwu in Beiping and Fu Zuoyi in Tianjin are not something he can deal with by himself, so he wants to win us over, and is willing to help us become bigger and stronger. His four supplementary regiments were originally intended for the cadets of the "Peiping Political and Military School" he opened in Beiping, but Yan Xishan did not want Shang Zhen's strength to become stronger, so I guess he used the "Military Consolidation Case" issued on July 14 to pressure him. Although Shang Zhen is the chairman of Hebei Province and is nominally under the central government, he is in the Jin Sui Army after all, and Yan Xishan cannot expand the organization if he does not agree. Therefore, he handed over these four regiments to us, and made it clear to me that in a year, after graduation, some of the cadets of the military and political schools would be arranged to come over. As for us, we must fully support him now, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, without his support, we will be struggling, or even unable to survive. On the issue of the establishment of the troops, it will be very good to do what the eldest brother said. The affairs of the special forces, the eldest brother must also take care of it. ”
Song Zhewu saw Xiao Guodong open his mouth to say something, waved his hand and said, "I know what the eldest brother is going to say, I will talk about the special forces later, I will answer the last question of the eldest brother first." To put it bluntly, this "Sorting Out Military Bill" is a disarmament bill, and the chairman of the NPC National Committee does not like the various factions to support their own troops and do their own thing. But he didn't have the ability to release the military power with a glass of wine, so he had to weaken the strength of the Northwest Army, the Gui Department and the Jin Sui Army first, and the way was to disarm. The specific methods of disarmament are: 250 divisions of the country's 300 divisions will be reduced; The 50 divisions under the retention, each with 15,000 troops, a total of 800,000 troops, are divided into 12 districts throughout the country, each district retains the army in proportion, and each group army is handled separately. According to this motion, Feng, Yan, and Li each have one district, and of course the number of troops must be reduced in large quantities, while Chairman Chiang can also control the other eight districts in the name of the central government in addition to the original one district, and if his descendants are scattered, there is no need to reduce them at all. Such a plan will obviously not be approved by Feng, Yan, Li and others. On the one hand, in order to weaken the strength of the factions, Chairman Chiang must disarm; On the other hand, in order to preserve their strength, various factions are openly and covertly fighting against disarmament. The two contradictions are irreconcilable at all, so in the end there will be a war between the central and local governments. We now have to vigorously expand our forces and strengthen our strength, so that once a big war breaks out, we can get what we want. ”
After Song Zhewu finished speaking, Xiao Guodong didn't say anything, just silently lit another cigarette and smoked it slowly. It's not that he doesn't believe Song Zhewu's analysis, on the contrary, he believes it too much. Two years ago, when Song Zhewu invited him to form a unit, he found that Song Zhewu had changed, he had a deep view of the problem, a clear and organized way of analyzing the problem, and he was no longer the hairy young man he used to be, but more like a politician with rich experience and profound thoughts. He didn't know what had happened to them in the past two years to change Song Zhewu. And then the Northern Expedition was victorious, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party split, including the second Northern Expedition this year, he was all mentioned by him one by one. This time it is likely to be said by him again, and Xiao Guodong also agrees with Song Zhewu's analysis.
Thinking of this, Xiao Guodong snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and said, "Since you want to fight, you must prepare early." We still have few people, and we still have to recruit soldiers; Weapons, ammunition, artillery and a large number of reserves, these are your business, I am responsible for recruiting people and training troops. Plus, you have to make money faster. Now I can't afford the military in my hand. ”
"How many more? Song Zhewu is a little uneasy? "Recently, due to the relocation, several factories have no income for almost two months because of the relocation, and in the past, the money was directly handed over to Xiao Guodong, and now how much is left, Song Zhewu does not know." In addition to the money for the start of the factory, there is less than 3 million, which is only enough for two months' military salary. Xiao Guodong replied.
"Two months, that's enough time. Big brother, don't worry, I'll earn you another 2 million next month. Xiao Guodong laughed: "Wen Ge, if you don't go into business as a soldier, you will definitely become the richest man in China." I really admire your ability to make money. ”
"By the way, Wenge, you still have to take care of this special forces matter personally, but I just heard you say something, I don't know how to do this." Song Zhewu smiled and said, "Big brother, those who can work hard, I have to trouble you in this matter." As he spoke, Song Zhewu took out a thick stack of paper full of words from the small leather bag at the head of the bed and handed it to Xiao Guodong. This is the training plan of the special forces, you take a look at it first, and after reading we are totaling. ”
"Report, a regiment leader Zhang has arrived." Chu Feng interrupted the conversation between the two by the sound of a report outside the door.
Thank you friends for your support, I will work hard, today is still two chapters.
