Everyone present was slightly stunned, Yan Xishan glanced at Fu Zuoyi meaningfully, he thought that the thunderous means he had just made the generals feel deeply frightened and suddenly chilled, but he didn't expect Fu Zuoyi to be so tough, it seems that the previous killing of chickens and monkeys did not play a role at all.

So Yan Xishan suddenly changed his strategy and said: "If the Yisheng Institute also has such good equipment as Zhang Xuewu, it is okay to stick to Chengde, don't you all say?" ”

Everyone on the side immediately echoed the voice, Fu Zuoyi smiled helplessly and said: "Zhang Xuewu is orthodox but from the Northeast Lecture Martial Arts Hall, compared with the army, it is a small level of Lu Xiao, even the Nanjing Military Army School is only the level of the primary military academy in Europe, there are German instructors in Lu University, I don't praise it, Zhang Hanqing in the military aspect is a little bit known to everyone, but this Zhang Xuewu is one of the outliers, if I go to stick to Chengde under the same conditions, at most five will be the whole army will be annihilated, The advantage of the enemy and us in the war is to rely on weapons, and the victory of the war is determined by the soldiers, Zhang Xuewu's commanding ability is extraordinary, and he can control the troops without collapsing if the casualties exceed sixty percent. ”

Fu Zuoyi paused, but everyone continued with a look of surprise: "I quietly went to Rehe once after the war, and repeatedly observed the place where the two armies of Chengde fought fiercely, Zhang Xuewu quite understood the combat characteristics and firepower of the army, and all the fortifications were built for the weaknesses of the army, and the military appearance of the troops was rigorous, the soldiers and officers went to the street in two people, and the three people formed an army, and there was no one who was untidy, the clothes were clean, the trade was fair, and they were very loved by the local people. The Iron Army during the Northern Expedition was not as good as it, who would dare to taste the tiger's whiskers of such an army? ”

Fu Zuoyi's words calmed down everyone present, Fu Zuoyi has always been very considerable and calm, never easily slander anyone, let alone praise, belongs to people who do not smile, since Fu Zuoyi gave Zhang Xuewu such a high evaluation, unwilling to compete with him, then the rest of the people present should weigh it carefully, Zhang Xuewu killed himself is absolutely unambiguous, if it is so fierce and ruthless? Whoever goes to Suiyuan is enough to choke!

Yan Xishan glanced at the absent-minded Shang Zhen and Yang Aiyuan not far away, Shang Zhen was a person who had been the commander of Suiyuan, and when he was in office, he partnered with Yang Aiyuan to sell car wagons and made five or six million oceans, which can be said to be a way to make money, Shang Zhen is now very close to the Nanjing political axe, and its 32nd Army is also a type A army supplied by the Ministry of Military Affairs.

I think that in the early years, Shang Zhen was also a person who had undergone all kinds of experience, it can be said that Wen Taowu was not left behind, and in the end he had to take refuge in himself, but after ten years, he ran before and after the saddle to serve himself, I am afraid it was just for the grace of unforgettable acquaintances. However, in terms of his original surname, he will definitely not be willing to be controlled by others!

Yan Xishan looked at Yang Aiyuan again, the 34th Army under his command was absolutely forbidden, Yang Aiyuan can also be said to be devoted to himself, but he has always been less confident in opposing Jiang, but he still listens to greetings, Yang Aiyuan received 900,000 oceans from Lao Jiang during the Central Plains War, and in the end he did not defect, proving that he can still pass the test.

In Yan Xishan's opinion, Yang Aiyuan's ability is insufficient, but he still has a surname, and what he needs at the critical moment is a loyal general, otherwise how can he endure it no matter how strong his ability is to become famous?

Yan Xishan repeatedly compared Shang Zhen and Yang Aiyuan, and thought that the only person who could listen to him was probably Yang Aiyuan, after all, Shang Zhen got the salary of the Central Army!

After everyone left, Yan Xishan left Yang Aiyuan alone, Yang Aiyuan saw that this scene had already understood, so he hesitated and said: "If the commander orders me to obey, just say: "If the commander orders me to obey, just know that Chief Yan must know that Zhang Xuewu is not a good person, and my 34th Army can't all be pulled to Suiyuan, at least the teaching regiment, the 9th Brigade and the artillery battalion have to stay!" ”

Yan Xishan was slightly stunned, before he started the comparison, Yang Aiyuan was ready to be wiped out? Yan Xishan appeased Yang Aiyuan and said: "We don't have anything else in Shanxi, that is, we have money and guys, I will double the loss to you, don't be afraid, he Zhang Xuewu will dare to fight against friendly forces?" Now the more than 40 county magistrates below are our own people, and you will not be able to take over the place if you are in Suiyuan Zhang Xuewu, and you will be instigating the local gentry to make a fuss, as long as he Zhang Xuewu dares to suppress it, he will ensure that he can't eat and go around! ”

Yang Aiyuan hesitated a little and said, "Then I'll obey the order!" ”

Yan Xishan nodded with satisfaction, and for a while he had a bit of a momentum of pointing out the country, but Yang Aiyuan, who was standing in front of the map, couldn't hold his spirits no matter what.

Zhang Xuewu, who fished 10,000 Czech-made rifles and 300 Czech-made machine guns in Beiping, found that Beiping and Tianjin had not only stockpiled a large number of materials from Shenyang, but also a large number of weapons and equipment imported from abroad after Zhang Xueliang entered the customs during the Central Plains War.

In the eyes of the generals of the Northeast Army, Zhang Xueliang's generosity seems to be a bit excessive? The Northeast Army replenishes weapons and equipment for the Central Army? What's going on? However, who made Zhang Xuewu Zhang Xueliang's cousin, and this cousin saved his cousin from danger not long ago, from the pain of the wilderness, and even more people also knew a little bit of the so-called inside story when Zhang Xueliang killed Zhang Xuecheng, guilt plus very guilty, so although this cousin is now the lieutenant general and corps commander of the Central Army, he is like his own person in the Northeast Army, and no one dares to say more about this.

As soon as Zhang Xuewu arrived in Beiping, he was summoned by He Yingqin, and the minister of military affairs patted Zhang Xuewu on the shoulder very happily and said: "The most headache of the chairman did not expect to let you solve it in three clicks, the chairman of the committee is very happy, and ordered me to inform you that the Executive Yuan has ordered you to clean up the locality, and take up the post of chairman of Rehe Province and acting chairman of Chahar and Suiyuan. In addition, the Ministry of Military Affairs will immediately organize people to go to Germany to purchase and negotiate ordnance, and the chairman means that if you are interested, you can send people there, and you can also buy some supplements by yourself! ”

He Yingqin's praise made Zhang Xuewu a little confused? When did you do something that made Nanjing so appreciated? It seems that he has only left Nanjing for two or three days? What the hell is going on?

Although Zhang Xuewu was puzzled, he didn't show it, but spared He Yingqin's words and said: "Minister He, we didn't give you so much, what trouble did the Ministry of Military Affairs and the chairman of the National Committee cause trouble?" ”

He Yingqin suddenly laughed and said: "It's no trouble, but next time your kid is trapped in the lonely city, it is estimated that no one will be willing to drive the division to the desperate rescue!" Sun Dianying, Song Zheyuan, Shang Zhen and other troops asked the central government for a large number of supplementary weapons, materials and soldiers, if the Nanjing political axe did not accept, they raised it on the spot until they raised enough, they also proposed a total of 5.7 million yuan to the Nanjing political axe for the bereavement and return expenses, it is simply a lion's mouth, knowing that the Nanjing political axe will not pay, and threaten the political axe like this, otherwise it will be a disturbing place. ”

But I didn't expect that in just ten days, Sun Dianying concentrated all the troops in Duolun, and Song Zheyuan and Shang Zhen and other departments all returned quickly, even ignoring the one million loads of grain that the central government was about to deliver, which is all the credit of you digging into the corner! Now don't let Song Zheyuan see you, otherwise a rush is possible! ”

Yes? Zhang Xuewu was dumbfounded and said: "Song Zheyuan is also a fierce general, his strength can't be so small, right?" Isn't it because of the lack of money that we want to ask our brother troops if there are any injuries that have not healed, have fallen behind, etc., let's help contain them! It is said that the salary of our Rehe Regiment is real, and it is also implemented if there are officers and soldiers in the local army who are willing to come to the Central Army for development! Besides, Rehe is the front line of resistance, and such officers and soldiers with combat experience are also needed! Just a few people, Song Zheyuan, is he as for him? ”

He Yingqin was also stunned and said, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, right?" Your people are now crazy, pulling people to load the ocean with big carriages, fellow villagers pulling fellows, friends dragging friends, this is all normal means, it is said that there are also people who are beaten with stuffy sticks, and the small army company is directly disarmed and pulled away by the unit! Song Zheyuan has come to me, his newly formed teaching regiment originally had more than 2,300 non-commissioned officers, and now there are less than 700 left, all of which were pulled away by the commander of your Suiyuan garrison division called Zhanyang, and the two armies almost didn't fight on the spot! Later, Xu Tingyao came to complain, in order to prevent you, they expanded a gendarmerie battalion, but this battalion was almost three companies of men and horses from you who came and went, and it broke up at that time, and now your Rehe Legion is hated by everyone! ”

Zhang Xuewu was stunned before he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have given a very outrageous and even outrageous order, that is, to let his subordinates go crazy to dig the corners, whoever has the first full force will supplement the weapons and equipment according to the establishment, and whoever is the last to be full will only be able to replenish seventy percent of the equipment, and the rest will be made up by the end of the year.

Guns are the lifeblood of soldiers! Not to mention light and heavy mortars and mountain artillery, Zhang Xuewu can imagine how his subordinates can fulfill their orders to the letter.

However, digging the foot of the wall can dig up the Jin army and the Northwest Army to run away, the Central Army dispatched a large number of military police, the Northeast Army retreated, and Zhang Xuewu was unprecedented!
