With the deepening of the dispute over the right of way, newspapers all over Sichuan began to openly criticize the practices of the Qing court, and the common people also began to discuss, as if a huge volcano was brewing energy, just waiting for the general eruption, but the Qing court did not have any preparations at this time, it was still blindly high-pressure, except for Dongchuan, the rest of the places were brewing chaos, especially the Alliance, the Elders' Association and other organizations also participated, and things became more uncontrollable.

Qiao Yu is stepping up the training of the army at this time, strong strength, although because of his involvement in Dongchuan's history has undergone great changes, but it is not enough to affect the general trend of the world, the imperial cabinet is still appearing, the road protection movement is in front of you, and the revolution will inevitably come in the near future.

Sichuan is in an unfavorable situation facing the enemy on all sides, facing the pressure of the Beiyang in the north, the two lakes in the east are also a place where strong armies gather, and the Yunnan army in the south is also a strong army.

At the same time, he ordered two bullet production lines from Buscht, but this is not the same as selling weapons, and must be supported by the German political axe, and now Qiao Yu's status is still too low, and it is not enough for the Germans to bet on him, so it is not smooth to talk about it, but Yucheng Consul General Wei Si has a good impression of Qiao Yu and promised to help him persuade the country to increase support for Qiao Yu.

Although the production line was not introduced, five thousand Mauser rifles were shipped, and eight seventy-five-mm mountain guns were also shipped, plus the artillery purchased last time, which can equip an artillery battalion, which has strengthened Qiao Yu's heavy firepower, and now Qiao Yu has a scale of nearly 5,000 people, and has cannons.

Just when Qiao Yu was planning how to continue to expand his strength, suddenly came the results of the imperial court's handling of the chaos of the Yucheng patrol battalion, the dead Yunxiang was praised, Zhu Youji was transferred to Yunnan as a political envoy for the effective handling, and at the same time Niu Chuanshan took over Dongchuan Dao, at the same time, the Qing court in view of the patrol battalion was unusable, and at the same time gave Niu Chuanshan the right to train the troops, let him organize a new army, and appointed He Xin as the assistant commander, Qiao Yu because of the merit in dealing with the chaos, became the deputy assistant commander, responsible for training matters, In addition, Zhao Erfeng, the governor of Sichuan, also came with the news that he was still in Sichuan and could not return to Chengdu, but he had asked Qiao Zhen to come to Chongqing with a battalion of elite border troops to defend Chongqing.

Niu Chuanshan received the appointment of the imperial court, looked at Zhu Youji with a wry smile, and scolded the court for being confused, originally Qiao Yu's control of Yucheng was not justified, but now it is good to give the power to train the new army, and these people are even more puppets in the hands of others, looking at Zhu Youji who jumped out of the fire pit, Niu Chuanshan smiled bitterly: "Boss, you are free, but you are bitter little brother!" ”

Since Zhu Youji knew that he could leave Yucheng, he was so happy in his heart, he was overtaken by Qiao Yu in Yucheng, without any power, and he was also worried that Qiao Yu would rebel, and if he didn't do it at that time, he would have to sacrifice the flag with his head, and now that he can escape from danger, how can he not be happy, the wrinkles on the old man's face are happy.

"Brother doesn't have to be like this, you have to know if the old man is jumping into a fire pit again, now the world is stormy, brother, you can barely maintain it, it is your duty to be loyal to the court!" Zhu Youji explained a few words painlessly, and hurriedly packed up and went straight to Yunnan to take up his post.

Qiao Yu was even more overjoyed after getting the news, it seems that this Qing court is really cooperating with himself, it would be much better with a regular establishment, it just so happens that now Qiao Yu has nearly 5,000 people under him, and it is difficult to exert combat effectiveness without effective reorganization, but what is more depressing is to arrange a Shangguan for himself, that is, He Xin, the deputy commander of the original patrol battalion, although that guy is a rice bucket, but it is inevitable to control elbows, and he has to find a way to dispose of this eye-catching thing.

The subordinates were also rejoicing at this time, although everyone was trained by the army, but they were all in the name of patrol officers and patrol troops, they were a little uncomfortable, and now they were naturally very happy to be able to become regular officers.

According to the standard of the new army of the Qing court, an oblique is equivalent to a brigade in later generations, and an oblique has two standards, that is, at the regimental level, each marked with three battalions, although Qiao Yu has a lot of talents, but there are not many who can take charge of themselves, so after weighing and appointing Han Yong as the second standard commander, Qiao Yu personally served as the first standard commander, Wang Huai, Liu Yunhong, Su Ding were appointed as the three battalion officers of the first target, and the three battalion officers of the second target were Shi Yi, Zhang Zili, and Li Jingyuan.

Yu Jianxiong became the battalion officer of the artillery battalion, and Qiao Yu selected a cavalry commander from the first few guards who followed him, this person is named Zhang Tie, and Han Yong have both experienced the battle of the First Sino-Japanese War, and the equestrian skills are very good, although they are a little dull, but they are very loyal, and they are also old-fashioned, so the cavalry was handed over to him.

In addition, Qiao Yu has set up an engineer battalion, an artillery battalion, a medical team, a baggage team, and a special operations team with reading power, plus a guard battalion to protect Qiao Yu, counting that this association has more than 6,000 people, catching up with half of the town of the Beiyang New Army, if you can train the combat effectiveness of this army is still very objective, especially the equipment is German-made weapons, and Qiao Yu has also increased the configuration of machine guns, forming a machine gun battalion, equipped with more than 80 light and heavy machine guns, However, now Qiao Yu does not have so many machine guns in his hands, and he has swept away the family of the Yucheng arsenal, plus the original purchase, there are only more than 30 of them, so he has to step up the purchase.

It is not an easy thing to train the troops, when Qiao Yu was busy and anxious, He Xin suddenly came to visit, this nominally still his boss, Qiao Yu had to be politely received.

He Xin was not tall, with a big belly and a smile on his face, he entered the school field, and when he saw that the army was in full swing in training, He Xin smiled and nodded: "Shunqing, you are really young and promising, and you are very pleased to be able to form the army so quickly!" But this choreographer of the new army is ultimately a big deal, I say something unpleasant, you are still young, it is better for everyone to discuss some things, my brother is not looking for trouble with you, but someone is looking for trouble with my brother, and please help me more! ”

As soon as Qiao Yu heard this, his face immediately changed, he gave you an assistant, and he really regarded himself as a thing, and wanted to interfere in the affairs of the army, and put people in it, you are boring for yourself, Qiao Yu sneered: "Commander He, at a young age, I don't understand your official words, let's talk about something!" ”

He Xin actually didn't want to conflict with Qiao Yu, on the night of the chaos in the patrol battalion, He Xin had already seen Qiao Yu's power, so although he became an assistant commander, he was also ready to be a man with his tail between his legs, but Qiao Yu's training of the new army was completely from his own subordinates to promote officers, and the officers of the original patrol battalion were useless, how could these people not go to He Xin and say, and He Xin also felt that he was an assistant commander, your surname Qiao couldn't be eaten and wiped clean, and nothing was left, so he found the school field and wanted to ask for a little benefit, but he saw Qiao Yu's face gloomy, He Xin also felt a trace of fear, and his tone immediately softened.

"Brother Qiao, I can't help it, many people are crying and shouting around my door, everyone is a robe for many years, I can't watch everyone drink the northwest wind, you are so rewarding to eat, even if the old brother begs you!"

"He Xietong, you let those officers come to me, at that time, the patrol battalion made trouble, they ran away, what trouble fell on me, and then the patrol battalion was going to be rectified, all of them were paying money, they knew that this was a thankless thing and hid, now the court has given the establishment, and the army has become a fragrant bait, everyone wants to come up and take a bite, tell them not to think, now although the court has given the establishment, but the salary is still owed, it is all paid in advance, and my rice is never given a rice bucket!"
