General Huang Xuchu, the fourth person in the Gui family, actually greeted him in person.

Li Guang was deeply honored, even flattered. Although Huang Xuchu ranked fourth in the Gui department, he was also a dignified lieutenant general and the chairman of a province. So far, Li Guang has seen all of them, except for Bai Chongxi, the second giant of the Gui family. At this time, Li Bai and the two generals were fighting with the Yue Army in the Fifth War Zone, and were preparing to fight with the dates. And Huang Shaohong has been transferred to the chairman of Zhejiang Province.

Of course, there was the need for the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and there was also Chairman Chiang's intention to transfer the core figures of the Gui faction out of Guangxi. As a matter of fact, Guangxi's military, government, and civil affairs are all on Huang Shaohong's shoulders.

There are also some reasons why Huang Xuchu was able to greet Li Guang in person. Li Guang is simply an idiot for politics, and he simply does not understand how much his several cooperation with the Gui family has affected the Gui family and the situation in China.

For the first time, Li Guang sent more than 1,000 tons of steel from the Gui system. It's only a small amount, but the help to the Gui family is like a charcoal in the snow. Using more than 1,000 tons of steel, the Gui system built tens of thousands of steel knives, hundreds of thousands of steel helmets, tens of thousands of grenades and a small number of artillery shells. The most basic configuration of the Gui army is complete. It seems that the broadsword and steel helmet that play no role in modern warfare are absolutely not to be underestimated in the specific role of the Gui army, which lacks weapons.

The second time, the two sides traded 16,000 tons of steel, not to mention that Li Guang got millions of oceans of tungsten ore, but for the Gui system, it was to turn the tungsten sand in the previous inventory into living money. Thus solving the consumption of ammunition for more than a year. China has been fighting for more than a year, and the country's reserves before the war have been exhausted. In the 39th year, almost all of them relied on foreign imports to replenish ammunition, how could it be abundant? And more than 10,000 tons of steel, the Gui department sold a part of it in exchange for millions of military spending. And the nearly 10,000 tons left behind are making mortar shells day and night.

In the whole of China, only a few thousand tons of ammunition can be manufactured in a year. Moreover, in the past year, due to the raging war, many factories have moved to the southwest, and the output has not been able to increase for a while, and it is difficult to guarantee even the pitiful thousands of tons.

If the Gui system can really produce tens of thousands of tons of mortar shells, it will be enough for the Chinese army in the whole country for two years. (Based on 1938 usage.) At the same time, it can also greatly alleviate Guijun's economic difficulties.

This is only a direct manifestation, as for the indirect benefits are greater. There is no doubt that it will increase the voice of the Gui system in the Chinese military system.

The guano trade has always been inconspicuous, but it is changing the economic landscape of Guangxi in a subtle and silent way.

Guangxi has not been a wealthy region since ancient times, and the local grain production is barely enough for its own use. But in just one year, that has changed. Now Guangxi is not only self-sufficient, but also able to sell a small amount to the outside world.

The agricultural technology of this era was not high, but the population of Guangxi was not as large as that of the 21st century, with a total of only a few million people. Hundreds of thousands of tons of guano have increased Guangxi's grain production by millions of tons in one year.

The most fundamental thing in the so-called economic development is that the people can have enough to eat. And the most urgent desire of the people for thousands of years was actually fulfilled in one year. Economically, Guangxi did not gain much in this year, after all, it also cost a lot of silver to buy guano. But in the foreseeable 39 or 40 years, the Gui family will surely receive great benefits.

Laplace, chairman of the Guano Business Group, has repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with Li Guang. Because Li Guang has been asking for guano to be sent to China, and now the ships of the guano business group have been interfered with by the Japanese army, and there are even personal intimidation. In short, Laplace was not willing to take the risk and continue to run the route to China.

Naturally, the Gui system has some understanding of these conditions, and grain has a bearing on the foundation of Guangxi, and iron and steel and explosives have a bearing on the development of the Gui system. So in the absence of the Big Three, the Fourth Giant personally came to the dock to greet Li Guang. is also to have a good relationship with Li Guang.

Politics is very complicated, and the strength of the Gui family has strengthened, so Chairman Jiang's heart is naturally not so comfortable. But it's hard to make any representations. After all, these things are very beneficial to the entire Chinese War of Resistance. Li Guang, who was also not treated well by the chairman, did not even have an official military rank. And Li Guang still did not understand why Chairman Chiang did not even say a word of encouragement to the Naval Resistance Army. Could it be that Chairman Chiang is really short-sighted and fails to see the tremendous role of the maritime resistance army in breaking the war?

Huang Xuchu is different from Li Zongren, Li Zongren dresses simply, giving people the feeling of easy communication. Huang Xuchu was elegantly dressed, but his writing was courteous, which made people feel like a spring breeze at first sight.

The governor of a province is only forty-seven years old. After Huang Shaohong left Guangxi to go to the Central Committee, he succeeded him as chairman of Guangxi Province. His father was a talented man in the former Qing Dynasty, with a family background, and he had excellent qualifications and an excellent memory, so he had a very good foundation in Chinese studies. On the surface, he is polite and self-controlled, and has no quarrel with others, but Huang Shaohong still has an unknown side, but he has another side when he commands the battle, brave, very brave.

After meeting several giants of the Gui family, Li Guang sighed that the Gui family was able to rise in a remote place and write a strong stroke in the history of the Republic of China, which is not unrelated to these leaders. can leave a strong mark in history, these people are really the pride of the times.

Huang Xuchu is the chairman of a province and has excellent management ability. For the sake of secrecy, a regiment of troops was mobilized around the pier to guard it. However, it took Li Guang two days and two nights to complete the loading operation, and the Gui soldiers unloaded all 300 tons of explosives in less than one night. By the next morning, the Pixiu was already clean, and there were more than ten baskets of citrus.

Immediately, the Pixiu sailed into the vast sea again, ready for the second transport. Li Guang did not accompany the ship this time, and Ren Tianyang was in charge of commanding the Pixiu. Li Guang knows that Ren Tianyang has been under some pressure recently. After all, there are quite a few candidates competing for the commander of the two submarines, and although he is currently the most competitive, there is always some pressure before the official appointment.

During the voyage, Ren Tianyang's eyes were always wandering around Weizhou Island, and he always wanted to give the devil a ruthless blow and make a meritorious battle, so as to steadily take the position of the commander of the Pixiu.

In order to prevent Ren Tianyang from really running to sneak attack the devils, Li Guang issued an order not to cause trouble, not to start a war with the devils, and not to attack merchant ships before sending explosives.

In the past, Li Guang did not know the role of 500 tons of explosives and propellants in the War of Resistance Against Japan, but when he heard that 500 tons of explosives could produce 3,000 or 4,000 tons of mortar shells, he immediately realized that transporting explosives was more important than attacking merchant ships, and that he absolutely must not cause any extraneous problems.

When the Pixiu quietly left the dock, Qin Zhan stomped his feet anxiously. Now the first chief torpedo on the Pixiu is designated as the captain of the PJP, and the deputy torpedo chief is vacant, but he has been looking forward to this position for a long time.

pestered Li Guang to talk about conditions, and even his senior brother was betrayed. Qin Zhan has studied martial arts and also studied. There is a master, but both martial arts and reading are taught by his senior brother Yang Weiwu. According to Qin Zhan's boasting, if his senior brother dealt with him like this, one could fight ten. Qin Zhan was going to recruit his senior brother to Li Guang as a guard, and he would be the deputy torpedo chief.

Qin Zhan's martial arts Li Guang still knows, Li Guang is more than one meter eight tall, and Qin Zhan is no more than one meter seven high, but if he moves, Li Guang can't walk a few rounds in front of Qin Zhan, even so Qin Zhan keeps his hand. But because of physical strength, if there are two Li Guang, Qin Zhan will definitely not be an opponent.

Li Guang has read a lot of martial arts novels, but he doesn't believe that anyone can really hit ten at all. But Li Guang was still very welcome to be able to dig up talents, so he agreed to Qin Zhan and gave Qin Zhan a five-day vacation.

Later, Li Guang learned that what Qin Zhan said about a dozen and ten was bragging. Not to blow his brother, but to blow himself. Yang Weiwu is now twenty-five years old, his grandfather is a famous master, family history, and now Yang Weiwu's family martial arts Three Emperors Cannon Hammer has been practiced perfectly.

Qin Zhan's home is in Guitai, not far from Qinzhou. And his senior brother Yang Weiwu was the most powerful master in Guitai when he was a teenager. However, Yang Weiwu's grandfather died during the rise of the Gui lineage, so Yang Weiwu did not join the Gui army.

That night, Huang Xu held a banquet to entertain Li Guang, and the two sides agreed that Guangxi would continue to trade with Li Guang with tungsten ore, either to offset the payment for explosives or to offset the payment for guano. Li Guang is naturally happy to agree, anyway, tungsten ore is not worried about sales at all, and Guangxi does not know that tungsten ore has begun to rise in the international market now, although there is still a gap from the rise of fifty percent, but three percent always have.

The only thing to worry about is transportation. It will be possible to ship goods from Vietnam for a while, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to continue after a long time. Li Guang suddenly remembered that it seemed that a very famous battle had occurred at the end of the 39th year - the bloody battle of Kunlun Pass.

Kunlun Pass is in the inland of Guangxi, that is to say, at the end of the 39th year, the coastal area of Guangxi may fall into the hands of the army. Li Guang reminded Huang Xuchu of the invasion of the Yue army. In my memory, the devil seems to have landed in Qinzhou Bay, and Li Guang also explained to Huang Xuchu.

Huang Xuchu is actually preparing for war all the time, this is simply a certain thing, no military strategist, anyone can see that now that the devil has just occupied Hainan Island, he naturally wants to attack Guangxi with his hands free. Although Guangxi does not have many resources, Guangxi has this Guiyue material channel, which is the thorn in my side.

Historically, the Chinese side of the Guinan Campaign was very passive, but in fact, one of the fundamental reasons was not that it was unprepared, but that there was no army. The main forces of the Gui system are now in the Fifth War Zone, and it is difficult for Guangxi to resist the attack of the Yue army by relying only on the militia regiments. Therefore, the early battle is extremely passive.

At the end of the banquet, Li Guang asked Huang Xuchu to help find a map of Weizhou Island, preferably with an officer who was familiar with Weizhou Island. In addition, Huang Xuchu was also asked to find a few people to study music.

Perhaps because the expression was not clear enough, two charming women appeared in Li Guang's room that night. One of them had a tactful voice, quite the taste of Liu Sanjie, looking at the two beautiful eyebrows, Li Guang almost turned into a wolf. Fortunately, with a little bit of wisdom, Li Guang reined in the precipice and did not make a mistake in the lower half of his body.

Under the resentful gaze of the two beautiful cuties, Li Guang closed the door. The two beauties on the stone statue island have not yet been done, and he doesn't have the courage to come up with some stories now.

The next day, Li Guang hurriedly explained his purpose and proposed to have a man. Huang Xuchu was a little unkind to Li Guangdao, "Broken sleeves? ”

Damn, such a high-ranking official is not kind. However, Huang Xuchu was still very helpful, and gave Li Guang an order to find fifty or sixty musicians.

Now there are only three qualified sonars in the Maritime Resistance Army, and if Ji Kelian becomes a submarine commander, he will obviously be absent from his post. What's more, the Maritime Resistance Army will soon have new submarines and new gunboats, and sonar is indispensable. This kind of job requires both training and talent. It is difficult to meet the requirements by just screening on the stone statue island.

So these musicians were tossed by Li Guang in a few days. Li Guang is not an examiner, but he is in charge of the first test. The means of inspection were very rough, find a black cellar and lock it up. Those who can carry it for thirty-six hours can move on to the next link.

As a result, more than half of the test was brushed off. By the time the Pixiu docked again, less than twenty had passed the exam.

Then the official examiner came on, and Ji Kelian only passed the two-hour exam to screen out six young people with potential. The sonar corps expanded again.

Through this time, Li Guangzhen knew how difficult it was to recruit a qualified sonar. At the beginning, he abducted four music students, and three of them passed. He thought that he could get twenty or thirty out of these fifty or sixty people. But the result was only six, one tenth. And after these six trainings, I don't know how many I can pass.

The ultimate reason is that Ji Kelian and these four people are all college students in the music department. In this era, most people are still in a state of undereating, there are few people engaged in music, and there are not many college students in the music department in the whole of China.

It looks like you'll have to cast a wider net to find the right talent. In order to do this, it is necessary to use the Gui system, and the fifth theater dominated by the Gui system now involves several provinces, and it should be able to recruit some talents. As a last resort, Li Guang turned to Huang Xuchu again.

Mr. Huang can be a man, and in front of him, he wrote a letter and handed it to Li Guang. The letter, addressed to Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, explained that the recruitment of technical arms was very important to Li Guang's naval resistance forces. What the Naval Resistance Force lacks is not only sonar soldiers, but almost all technical arms. Among them, sonar and mathematics majors are the most lacking.

Before the Pixiu set sail, Deputy Sonar Xue Dingyi and Qin Zhan took the letter on a long journey to the Fifth War Zone. In addition to recruiting people, they also had to bring some weapons and ammunition to Xu Zhan. Li Guang's gun for Xu Zhan is good, it is an American M1 rifle, and its quality is much stronger than that of the Zhongzheng rifle. Li Guang not only replenished Xu Zhan with 100 rifles but also 50,000 bullets this time. There are also some recruitment costs. There is only so much Li Guang can help Xu Zhan, a little fellow, and the rest can only rely on Xu Zhan to recruit himself.

Qin Zhan was so depressed, he spent a lot of spittle, and finally found his senior brother Yang Weiwu. But he still didn't get his wish to become the deputy torpedo chief. However, Li Guang promised that if this mission was completed well, he would immediately become the deputy torpedo chief when he came back. How to evaluate whether it is good or not, the right of interpretation belongs to Li Guang.
