It took Wang Jundao seven days to finally take control of all the armies in Shandong, during which there were many conflicts, but they were all resolved in the end.

Important cities in Shandong, including Jinan, Qingzhou, Linzi, Weifang and other prefectures, as well as most county seats, have been put under the military control of the Dragon and Tiger Army.

In order to prevent mutiny, Wang Jundao disrupted the original establishment, and most of the original officers were replaced, and the officers who were not replaced were also transferred to deputy positions.

After eliminating the old and weak in the army, Wang Jundao got a total of more than 50,000 elites who echoed the selection criteria of the Dragon and Tiger Army, although these people are still far from the soldiers required by Wang Jundao, but they have all experienced more than three months of new army training, most of them have been trained for more than half a year, Wang Jundao believes that as long as he uses his training method and trains hard for more than three months, these people can barely be regarded as real soldiers.

As for the old and weak soldiers who were eliminated, they were not really old and weak, and even most of them were strong people, and the soldiers recruited by Yuan Shikai certainly did not want real old and weak people, the reason why they were called old and weak was because their age did not meet Wang Jundao's criteria for selecting soldiers.

The soldiers that Wang Jundao needs must be over eighteen years old and under thirty years old, because once such soldiers are trained to be real elite soldiers, they can be guaranteed to be elite soldiers within five or even ten years.

Soldiers over the age of 30 are declining in physical strength, energy, and intelligence, and are not suitable for long-term training, and once their physical strength and vitality are overdrawn with arduous military training, then in a few years, their comprehensive physical quality will decline rapidly, which is not conducive to the sustainable development of the army, so if you want to become a soldier of Wang Jundao, you must first have a strict age limit.

Of course, this is limited to soldiers, if it is an officer, it is a different matter, there is no age limit, because under normal circumstances, the older the officer, the more experienced, the more calm he is, the more reassuring it is to command the army and lead the troops in battle.

Wang Jundao eliminated these so-called 'old and weak', the oldest is less than forty-five years old, it can be said that they are all in the prime of life, Wang Jundao did not dismiss them, after all, they are all soldiers who have been trained by the new army, there are still some military qualities, leaving the army, it is difficult for them to find an effective way to survive in a short time, it is very likely to bring unnecessary trouble to public security, and bring many obstacles to his rule in Shandong.

Therefore, Wang Jundao directly organized 40,000 soldiers in the prime of life into a 10,000-person baggage division and 10,000 engineers, the baggage division was responsible for transportation, and the engineers were responsible for the army's engineering construction.

Of the remaining 20,000 people, 10,000 were incorporated into the logistics contingent and carried out the army's logistics construction under the command of the logistics regiment. Another 10,000 people will become military workers, of which 5,000 will remain in Jinan and become ordnance workers at the No. 3 Arsenal, which was reorganized from the Shandong Machinery Bureau, to produce weapons, while the remaining 5,000 will rush to the newly built steel city east of Tai'an to become ordnance workers at the No. 1 Arsenal.

Under the temptation of salaries that are not lower than those of the armed guards and the attractive reward system, these elites, who have not experienced much war and have no special desire for war, willingly choose to obey Wang Jundao's orders.

Who doesn't want to make more money? Who doesn't want to live with more money in peace?

As for the 50,000 elite soldiers recruited, Wang Jundao will transfer these troops into the capital, transfer them out of Shandong, and leave their hometowns, although they are not loyal to Wang Jundao for the time being, and can only passively obey his arrangement.

Wang Jundao wants to carry out arduous modern military training for these people who can become real elite soldiers, of course, the most important thing is to brainwash them, so that they know how to protect their families and patriotism, know how to be loyal to themselves, and understand the mission of soldiers!

At the same time, Wang Jundao ordered Xu Jian to be the commander-in-chief, Murong Ke to be the deputy commander-in-chief, and led the second division, the fifth division, and the first cavalry division of the Huben Army with a total of more than 40,000 people to march westward into Henan, and in the name of Guangxu, he drafted a holy decree to promote the governor of Henan and the governor of Henan to be the left servant of the military department, and the political envoy of Henan to the right servant of the household department, and entered Beijing within half a month, appointed Xu Jian as the new governor of Henan, and took charge of the military, supervision, and patrol power of Henan Province, and appointed Liu Changfeng as the political envoy of Henan Province (equivalent to the governor), and took charge of the civil affairs of Henan Province. Wang Jundao's order to Xu Jian was that if the former governor of Henan and the political envoy of Henan did not enter Beijing to take up their posts, it would be disobedience, and Xu Jian could attack directly.

Wang Jundao drafted a holy decree again, appointed Xiang Zilong as the governor of Shandong, oversaw the military affairs and patrol of Shandong, and exercised the power of supervision, appointed Qi Anmin as the political envoy of Shandong Province, and took charge of the civil affairs of Shandong Province.

As for Baiyun City, which originally managed all government affairs in the Tai'an region, Wang Jundao naturally couldn't let him stay in Tai'an anymore, so he decisively transferred him to the capital.

On November 1, Wang Jundao, who had stayed in Jinan for more than half a month, finally set off north and rushed to Yanjing.

At this time, Ding Jinyuan, the former governor of Henan, had already accepted the holy order and entered Beijing to take up his post, Xu Jian had already controlled Henan, and Pang Wei had also controlled the southern part of Zhili Province.

Accompanying Wang Jundao to the north, there were four divisions of the Huben Guard, the first division of the Longwu Army, the sixth division of the Huben Army, the baggage division, the transportation division, the logistics division, and the 50,000 elite soldiers of Shandong.

There are also high-level military and political leaders in the former Tai'an area, the core team of the Military Weapons Research Institute, the industrial construction team, the education and medical team, and so on.

Wang Jundao's purpose in doing this was very simple, that is, to transfer the military and political center to Yanjing.

The entire team of nearly 200,000 people going north was mighty, majestic and magnificent, and everyone who saw it was moved, such a spectacular scene had not been seen for many years.

The Dragon and Tiger Army has strict military discipline, and naturally there will be no harm to the people, so all the way to the north, along the way to help as many people as possible, so most of the people are welcomed, even if there is no welcome, the people do not deliberately avoid the Dragon and Tiger Army, or are afraid of it behind closed doors.

Because the team was too large, and the transportation and logistics of the baggage were also extremely troublesome, the team walked for ten days before the large army entered the Yanjing area.

Today's Yanjing, is not the Yanjing of a few months ago, due to the influence of the new deal, most people have cut off the long and ugly pigtail braids, stimulated by the Dragon and Tiger Army's victory and singing, everyone feels that they are raising their eyebrows, most people dare to walk and do things with their heads held high, and they no longer grovel like before.

The common people no longer have to be overwhelmed by all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they no longer have to worry about foreigners entering Yanjing, resulting in starvation and the separation of wives and wives.

Due to the influence of the propaganda of the New Deal, the common people live more hopefully and hopefully than before, and most of them have little culture, but they also seem to have seen the scene of peace and tranquility in the land of China many years later, and the land of China is rich and powerful.

This is a kind of spiritual change, a kind of change from inferiority to self-confidence, how many years, the people have to deal with the rule of the Manchus on the one hand, and the exploitation of foreigners on the other, and now they can finally raise their eyebrows.

The biggest feeling of all this is that he personally participated in the creation of Baiyun City, which created the development of Tai'an, and he seemed to see a second Tai'an in Yanjing.

Baiyuncheng knows very well that even if the new policy in Tai'an is implemented well, the area affected will be limited after all, and it will be limited to the Tai'an area at most, but Yanjing is different, since the Yuan Dynasty, Yanjing is China's military, political, cultural and economic center, once the new policy in Yanjing is successfully implemented, it will be radiating and spreading to all parts of China.

Thinking about it, Bai Yuncheng told Wang Jundao these thoughts in his heart.

After listening to Baiyun City's words, Wang Jundao smiled and said, "Uncle Bai, don't forget, if I hadn't occupied Tai'an and used Tai'an as a test site, how could I have figured out this new deal system that is enough to guide China's great strides without being out of touch with the national conditions?" And if I didn't have complete control over Yanjing, how could I implement the new policy so easily? ”

Bai Yuncheng's expression was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it, this is indeed the truth, if he does not have a huge military strength to control a region, if he does not find a set of new policies suitable for China, not to mention the implementation of the new policies, it will be difficult to stand on his feet.

He couldn't help but sigh and said, "I thought of what you said before. ”

Wang Jundao smiled: "What words? ”

Bai Yuncheng said: "Power comes out of the barrel of a gun!" Although in most cases the military is in the service of politics, in fact, the military is only a means, but without the military, it is impossible to establish a political power, without a political power, where can politics come from? ”

Wang Jundao said with a smile: "Therefore, all this must revolve around the political power, as long as the whole of China is conquered, it is equivalent to mastering the political power in China, mastering the political power, and having a strong military force to lay the foundation, you can better play the role of politics, and the role of politics must be better to benefit the people, only when more people benefit, can we support the political power, make the political power more stable, the political power is stable, and can better develop the military...... This is actually a process of the development of a good surname! ”

When Baiyun City heard this, his mouth suddenly opened. (To be continued.) )
