Xiao Guodong was very happy to see Song Zhewu, and everyone's emotions were mobilized, but because the security brigade has always emphasized that alcohol is not allowed in the army, let alone drunk, everyone still dare not drink in large quantities. The security brigade is all recruited in Hebei, and they are basically Hebei people. Most of the more than 13,000 people in the four supplementary regiments sent by Shang Zhen were from Shandong, and only a very small number of people in the brigade were southerners, such as himself and Chu Feng. Most northerners can drink alcohol, but because of this military rule, which is not a military rule, everyone does not dare to drink. Regarding drinking, Xiao Guodong is the strictest in management, that is, Zhang Yafei, Gao Zongbao, Zhang Tao, Liang Fang, Wei Guanghui and others, and no one dares to drink in front of him, even if he is not drunk, he will definitely not work. Xiao Guodong saw that many people were looking at him from time to time, hesitating and not daring to drink more, and whispered a few words to Song Zhewu. Song Zhewu laughed after hearing this, stood up and said loudly: "Tell you a good news, today the chief of staff lifted the prohibition on alcohol at the brigade headquarters for one day. There was a roar of applause, and the boys in their early 20s immediately became excited. Song Zhewu waved his hand, and then said: "Don't be happy yet, after listening to me, the deputy positions of all regiments and battalions are not allowed to drink again, and others can drink more, but they are not allowed to get drunk." The deputies immediately pulled their heads down, and the others were full of excitement. The two Song Zhewu in the past and present lives are very good at drinking, although they want to drink a little, but when they think of their responsibilities and ambitions, they can only suppress themselves, he is the top leader of the security brigade, and he must set an example. As soon as the prohibition was lifted, he immediately came to his senses, first had a drink with Wen Qing, and then Xiao Guodong accompanied Wen Qing, and he ran to each group to drink one by one.

Laiyuan is surrounded by mountains, especially around the county, which is equivalent to a basin, and the temperature rarely drops below minus 23 degrees in winter. Even so, after all, it is also a temperature of minus 20 degrees in winter, and you can't stay outside for too long.

When everyone dispersed, Xiao Guodong told Song Zhewu that Wen Qing had something to talk to him about. The two entered the reception room of the brigade headquarters, and the orderly had already poured tea for Wen Qing and Chu Feng, and when they saw the two of them coming in, they poured two more cups and then withdrew.

Although Song Zhewu has a lot of wine, but just after this circle, he drank seven or eight taels of wine, and the liquor in this era is not below 60 degrees, it is all real spirits. Song Zhewu took a sip of tea, suppressed the strength of the wine, and smiled at Wen Qingdao, who was looking at him with interest: "Instructor Wen, please say anything if you have anything, the chief of staff doesn't need to say it, even Chu Feng turned out to be my adjutant, there are no outsiders here, if you have something to say, you can talk about it." ”

Wen Qing smiled and said, "Commander Song, I have caused a lot of trouble to your department in the past ten days in Laiyuan, and Wen is here to thank you." "These Tianwenqing and his escort platoon live in the county yali, accompanied by Chu Feng every day, and they have been riding horses all over the barracks of all the security brigades these days.

Song Zhewu has been busy with the assessment these days, but he has only seen Wen Qing a few times at the assessment site, so he has no choice but to let Xiao Guodong go to chat with Wen Qing every night. Song Zhewu thought that Wen Qing was picky, and hurriedly said: "The assessment in the past few days is a test of the real combat effectiveness of the security brigade. ”

Wen Qing knew that Song Zhewu had misunderstood what he meant, he was just polite, and he didn't mean anything else, and he was really disgusted by excessive hospitality and politeness. Before he met Song Zhewu, he was just a little curious, and even a little suspicious of all kinds of legends about the security brigade. But since arriving in Laiyuan and seeing Song Zhewu and his troops, Song Zhewu has been constantly changing in his impression, gradually transitioning from a young and promising young general to a highly qualified young general, with a strong ability to lead troops, sophisticated in handling things, and a good command of his subordinates. Now he was very fond of this twenty-six or seventeen-year-old young man.

Wen Qing didn't explain much, and continued: "Your army is very young, from you to your soldiers, they are only in their twenties, the young people are all vigorous, and the entire security brigade gives people a vigorous and upward spirit. I have only seen such a spiritual unit in the first and second phases of Huangpu. That's right. Your teaching team is very distinctive, and he reminds me of Whampoa. Speaking of Huangpu, Song Zhewu found that a layer of mist seemed to rise in Wen Qing's eyes, and this hazy mist was Wen Qing's eyes looked a little confused.

Seeing Wen Qing praising his troops, Song Zhewu knew that Wen Qing would not have ill will towards him, and said with a smile: "Instructor Wen has won the award, we can't help it, when the army was first formed in 26 years, only me, Chief of Staff Xiao, and a few Baoding classmates I pulled from other units had formal military education. Almost all the soldiers were peasants, that is, there were very few students, and Chu Feng had been an instructor in the teaching team for more than a year. Except for a few of us, almost all of them did not have any military knowledge, and all the officers had to be personally trained by us little by little, and if there was any style in the teaching team, it was that we were trained. ”

"Oh?" Wen Qing asked a little puzzled: "I heard that since the establishment of the security brigade, the military salary has always been very high, if you want to poach some officers from other units, it shouldn't be difficult?" ”

"I have studied military affairs in Germany for several years, and I am deeply impressed by the military strength of the Western powers, and I formed this army with the intention of building a new army comparable to the great powers, without any of the old military habits at home. Just as the instructor said, it is true that with high military salaries, it is possible to find grass-roots officers, but in that case, some bad habits will inevitably be brought into this army, and the desire to build a completely different army from the old army will be frustrated. It's just that in this way, it will hurt a few of them, and the chief of staff was not only my chief of staff at that time, but also an instructor, company commander, platoon commander, and even squad leader. After speaking, he looked at Xiao Guodong with some guilt, Xiao Guodong just smiled and didn't make a sound.

Wen Qing saw the expressions of the two of them, nodded, and continued: "In the early days of Huangpu school, the conditions were also very difficult, but the faculty allocation was still very complete. However, there were less than 400 students at that time, and there were so many of you, which was really enough for you to be busy. After a pause, he continued to ask: "The military discipline of your security brigade is excellent, and County Magistrate Meng is full of praise for your military discipline, County Magistrate Meng is an honest man and a good parent officer, I believe his words." It can be said that most of the regulations on military discipline are focused on how to maintain relations with the common people, which is different from all the current domestic military regulations. ”

This question was very sensitive to Song Zhewu, and he now clearly felt that this civilian instructor was by no means just an ordinary army officer instructor as he said. He was also very clear about the early days of the establishment of the Whampoa school, indicating that he was in Whampoa at that time, and most of the instructors in Whampoa were incorporated into Chiang Kai-shek's First Army during the Northern Expedition. Even if he stayed in Huangpu, he wouldn't be just an ordinary instructor now! Song Zhewu knew that when Chiang Kai-shek's '4 and 12' divided the Communist Party and purged the party, Huangpu was divided into three, and Li Jishen, who was in Guangzhou, reorganized the personnel who stayed in Huangpu to continue running the school; the artillery department also had several other subjects that had been relocated to Wuhan, and the Wuhan Political Axe led by Wang Jingwei in Wuhan established the "Wuhan Military and Political School"; Chiang Kai-shek, who attached great importance to officer education and regarded Whampoa as the foundation of his beginning, opened the Whampoa Nanjing branch in Nanjing, which was later changed to the current "Central Army Military Academy", which shows that this civilian instructor has always been by Chiang Kai-shek's side. If there is one of Chiang Kai-shek's greatest strengths, it is that he never treated his Whampoa students and even Whampoa instructors badly. Most of the instructors who followed him at the beginning are now holding important positions in the army and key party and government departments, so it seems that this Wen Qing is by no means an ordinary instructor. But what is the purpose of his hidden identity to Laiyuan? There should be only one, that is, to see what kind of person Song Zhewu is, which he wants to woo; Still have to be eliminated. And, of course, his security brigade to see if there is a need to pay time and cost for this force. Song Zhewu and the Security Brigade are closely integrated, and no matter which aspect of him and the Security Brigade cannot meet Chiang Kai-shek's conditions, there is only one way waiting for him, that is, destruction. Although the current security brigade has 100,000 troops, it also has an irreparable and even fatal flaw, that is, he has no rear, and the soldiers of these security brigades will not go around the ravine with him to fight guerrillas.

Continue to say weakly, let's collect it! I give a recommendation ticket!
