Zhang Xuewu gnawed on the chicken legs like a remnant of the wind, while drinking a lot of wine, and suddenly said to Zhang Xueliang after he was full: "Big brother, if the ordnance and equipment transported from Shenyang are not organized to resume production, I am afraid that the workers and technicians will run out, which is an irreparable loss!" ”

Zhang Xueliang was slightly stunned, and was embarrassed: "Now I am busy all day, and the ordnance of my Northeast Army is still very sufficient, and the Nanjing political axe will also be replenished regularly, and it takes a lot of money, manpower, and energy to rebuild the factory, and now I have nothing, and the military industry is different from other project industries, it needs all kinds of infrastructure assistance, it is not so simple, if you want to move it!" ”

It can be said that Zhang Xueliang saw through Zhang Xuewu's purpose at a glance, he really didn't have the energy to do any construction, if Zhang Xuewu really did it, it would mean that he Zhang Xueliang had done it, and when the time came, Zhang Xuewu could still refuse himself? So Zhang Xueliang gave Zhang Xuewu the mechanical equipment and the workers and technicians who were stranded in Beiping and Tianjin.

Zhang Xuewu saw Zhang Xueliang's incomparably generous, so he immediately climbed up the pole and said: "Big brother, I also want to organize a small-scale air force unit, cooperate with the secret position of the artillery school, and reconnoiter the enemy situation, you give me the Flying Eagles!" ”

Zhang Xueliang looked at Zhang Xuewu in surprise and said, "You are crazy!" I'm not Keats! Although you are my younger brother, you are in the Central Army, and your unit must be organized by the Ministry of Military Affairs, what is the flying team? It's a black hole that swallows gold, you know? The monthly salary of a lieutenant flight officer is much more than that of a colonel, expensive aircraft, maintenance, parts, fuel! What do you want? ”

Zhang Xuewu said a little helplessly: "Chengde has suffered a big loss from me, I don't want to eat a trench and grow wise!" As for the establishment, I can apply in the direction of Nanjing, but what happened to my flight reconnaissance squadron under the Pacification Office? It's a big deal, I'm frugal! ”

Zhang Xueliang glared at Zhang Xuewu and said, "Are you embarrassed to mention frugality?" Your kennel has been interviewed by European and American reporters and sent to the newspapers, China's political axe is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the meritorious ones are living like a stable? Are you giving [***] people a long face? Let's get dark! ”

Zhang Xuewu was slightly stunned, and it was estimated that it might be caused by a reporter going to interview during the time he left, so he smiled and said, "Let's call this a casual encounter, okay?" Besides, now Rehe is in ruins and waiting to be rebuilt, and I don't want to live in a horse pen, but many of my soldiers are still spending the night in foxholes! The people outside can't even drink porridge, and when it's green and yellow, can I, the provincial chairman, sleep? ”

Zhang Xueliang was slightly stunned, looked at Zhang Xuewu, who was a little thin, hesitated and said: "I'll transfer two million catties of grain to you in the past, and I don't have any more, you have to find a way as soon as possible, don't let the gang of Wang Balamb of the Supervision Yuan impeach you, the Flying Eagles will definitely not work, I will give you the Flying Bears." ”

Yes? Zhang Xuewu was a little dizzy, the Flying Eagle Team and the Flying Leopard Team were the two earliest combat detachments formed by the Northeast Army, what is the matter with the Flying Bear Team? Whose old bear can fly? Isn't that fooling people?

So Zhang Xuewu began to carry forward his spirit of being shameless and not afraid of being buried, and began to talk about feelings with Zhang Xueliang, and all the things from childhood to adulthood were turned out, including some things that were not there, such as Zhang Hanqing ate him Zhang Chengwen an extra pear in a certain year? A string of sugar gourds and so on.

Zhang Xueliang, who was annoyed by the smoke above his head, finally had to promise Zhang Xuewu to lend Gao Zhihang and other six instructors to Zhang Xuewu, once he became an army, he would return the six instructors immediately, but Zhang Xueliang looked at Zhang Xuewu's sincere sworn expression, and still felt that this matter was a little out of line, how to look at Zhang Xuewu like that shameless Liu Da'er, can Jingzhou borrow it and pay it back?

In the end, Zhang Xueliang found that Zhang Xuewu was still a little too young and lacked experience, so he said patiently: "Jiang Gong has to look at this person from two aspects, compared to this, he will treat you like this, you will have an impulse to die as a confidant, the commander of the regiment, honor, Chahar, Suiyuan, and Rehe are all separated from me, that is, it weakens me and strengthens the power of the Central Army, and it is equivalent to letting you and Shanxi's base tumbler Yan Xishan face the muzzle, you are Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng will destroy it!" How could Yan Xishan be so easy to deal with? You are now the sharp blade in the hands of Jiang Gong, weakening and solving me and Yan Xishan is equivalent to smoothing half of China, so you must be more careful in your actions in the future, you can't go far with a blood spirit, politics is different from the battlefield, this battlefield is more dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will die without a place to be buried, understand? ”

Zhang Xuewu nodded seriously, Zhang Xueliang turned around and said: "Wang Jingwei is a reorganization faction, Sun Ke is a princely faction, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi is a new Gui faction, Gu Yingfen and Xiao Focheng and others are the veteran faction, Zou Lu and others are the Xishan Conference faction, Chen Jitang is a famous riding wall and falling with the wind, Yan Xishan is a tumbler, Liu Wenhui and Liu Xiang in Sichuan, Long Yun in Yunnan, you must also grasp the balance of these people, don't contact them too much, Jiang Gong doesn't like it, a soldier is a soldier, and the farther away from politics, the safer it is, In addition, if you are in contact with the Soviet Union in Suiyuan, you must report to Nanjing at any time, Nanjing will not object to your acquisition of weapons and support, but I am afraid that you will not report it, understand? ”

Zhang Xuewu found that he was really taught this time, Zhang Xueliang is indeed not a general, but he has been fighting in the wind and rain for many years, and his views on many things can be described as very unique, perhaps his biggest mistake is to misjudge the strategic intentions and determination of the army in the early stage of the Shenyang Incident, which can be described as a momentary mistake and regret for life! Before leaving, Zhang Xueliang promised to give Zhang Xuewu 25 locomotive heads and the corresponding supporting carriage loading personnel, and the corresponding equipment also began to be shipped to Chengde, depending on when Zhang Xuewu could take Suiyuan.

Zhang Xuewu's surprise at Peking Station became stunned, and the direct description was that his jaw fell to the ground, and there were 50,000 skilled workers, technicians, engineers and their families? Wang Haimin, a former deputy director in charge, told Zhang Xuewu that there were more than 30,000 people in the arsenal in the three eastern provinces in its heyday, and most of the remaining ones are technical backbones who are unwilling to work for him.

The children cried, the women scolded, the children were dragged in tattered clothes, and the scene of helping the old and the young shocked Zhang Xuewu, more than 200 people on the side were obviously dressed decently, and many people were carrying popular suitcases, obviously these people were engineers! Zhang Xuewu really doesn't know how these people survived the past two years? First of all, five yuan will be given to each household, five yuan for the head worker, eight yuan for the technician, and 20 yuan for the engineer, and the family has no two yuan, and the child has one yuan, and the arrears of wages are fully compensated by half to Rehe.

Zhang Xuewu's decision undoubtedly caused cheers, but Zhang Xuewu's heart was bitter and heartache, is it easy to get support? It also takes strength to compare hearts with hearts! More than 100,000 just went out? Zhang Xuewu can only hope that his efforts will be rewarded accordingly.

When he learned that Wang Haimin was left alone among more than a dozen deputy factory directors, Zhang Xuewu was slightly stunned, and he found that the leather shoes of the seemingly beautiful factory director seemed to be torn, the clothes were cleanly washed, but they were also patched, the neckline of the shirt was worn out, and there was not even a watch on the wrist? The treatment of the arsenals in the three eastern provinces is absolutely first-class in China, and the dignified deputy director doesn't even have a two-year-old book? And everyone is gone, leaving him alone to guard this big stall, and he has to continue to win people's hearts with red mouths and white teeth! It seems too hard!

But the military industry is the root of life, Zhang Xuewu doesn't know Wang Haimin, and he hasn't heard of it before, he can't just rely on his own judgment and inference to directly give him reuse, that kind of situation will only appear in the novel, use people without suspicion, suspect people don't use? This sentence is very easy to say, but it is even more difficult to do, it takes a lot of courage and courage, not everyone dares to try, and open-mindedness is not the same as joking with one's own life.

Soon, Ye Yunfei, who complained helplessly, simply collected information about Wang Haimin, Wang Haimin is not from the Northeast, but from Tianjin, he studied in Italy to study mechanical manufacturing in his early years, and was hired to come to the arsenal of the three eastern provinces after returning to China. Wang Haimin also organized personnel to patrol and protect these equipment, with a strong sense of responsibility and a very strong surname in principle, and there are two wives and five children at home, and now life is very difficult.

After listening to this, Zhang Xuewu nodded and said to Ye Yunfei: "Take this note to Wang Haimin, and at the same time give him a special fee of 20,000 yuan for him to settle his family!" ”

Ye Yunfei complained on the side: "Commander, I'm about to become your full-time adjutant, or you will let me leave the army, even if you give me a company?" ”

"Lieutenant Colonel Company Commander?" Zhang Xuewu frowned and said, "Is there such a formation?" If you want to go down, the military rank will be lowered to two levels, and the front-line life and death will be fought to the death, and you highly educated officers like Lao Tzu can't bear it! In the second half of the year, you and they will go to the German school, and when you come back from studying, Lao Tzu will prepare troops for you to let your new officers take office! ”

Thank you, Captain! Ye Yunfei was a little dizzy with excitement for a while, and Zhang Xuewu wrote on a crumpled piece of paper: Wang Haimin is hereby appointed as the colonel and director of the arsenal directly under the Appeasement Office, responsible for all matters, but all human and material support will be moved at any time, which is equivalent to the personal order of the corps commander! May of the 22nd year of the Republic of China!
