7. Governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang
The battle of Wuxi shocked China and foreign countries, Lu Yongxiang died in the chaos of the army, and the Zhejiang army died and surrendered, and it was wiped out in a blink of an eye.
Immediately, Li Bufan reorganized the Zhejiang Army, sent troops into Zhejiang, and swept through Zhejiang all the way.
On August 15, more than half a month after the Battle of Wuxi, many officers under Li Bufan jointly elected Li Bufan as the "Governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang" and sent a telegram announcing to all walks of life. Such a drastic change has caused an uproar throughout the country.
The high-level officials of Beiyang were furious, although Li Chun and Lu Yongxiang belonged to different factions, but they were both generals of Beiyang, and they had killed so two feudal officials in a row, which was worth it. You must know that although the Beiyang warlords fight to the death, such high-level officials are basically not in danger of life, and if they fail, they will be powered to go into the field, this is the rule. But now that the rules are broken, if Li Bufan, a person who breaks the rules, is still allowed to be the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, then who will abide by this rule? Aren't their lives in danger in the future?
The immediate family led by Cao Kun was furious: "Severe punishment, severe punishment must be severely punished." ”
Although Duan Qirui was defeated in the wilderness, he is still a Beiyang boss with huge influence. Although Li Bufan didn't pay attention to killing Lu Yongxiang in the battle, the Anhui system in the north has been completely finished, and if the south loses it again, then there is no need to mix. At the moment, he said: "Brother Cao, any accident will happen on the battlefield." It was just an accident, and the general inevitably died in battle. In the north we were defeated, and we all recognized the Anhui lineage. Could it be that Brother Cao is going to force people to be cornered just for the sake of Jiangsu? ”
Cao Kun was awe-inspiring in his heart, although he was also a Beiyang boss, his qualifications and prestige could not be compared with the famous "Beiyang Three Heroes". It is obvious that Duan Qirui wants to protect Li Bufan, in fact, it should be to protect the strength of the Anhui system, once the Anhui system is pressed, there will be trouble, I am afraid that the whole world will become a pot of porridge. At the moment, he calmed the restless direct generals, and said: "Brother Zhiquan is serious. This younger generation is too ignorant of the rules, if you don't educate it, then won't you be lawless in the future. ”
"Are there still fewer lawless people?" Duan Qirui said lightly, "I think the ability of this junior is not small, at least stronger than Li Chun and Lu Yongxiang." As long as it doesn't bring disaster to the country and the people, it's good to let young people experience it. If we don't give young people a chance, and our older generation dies, then won't we have no successor in Beiyang? ”
Cao Kun also heard that Duan Qirui was sarcastically mocking his lawlessness, otherwise how could the local government resist the central government and seize it instead? However, now the direct line is still unstable, the power of the Anhui line has not been digested, Duan Qirui's influence is huge, and there is a threat from the Feng family in the north that is close to him, if the Anhui family and the Feng family join forces, I am afraid that he will have to go back to his hometown if his ass is not stable. smiled at the moment: "Brother Zhiquan is right." Brother Zhiquan really loves the younger generations as always and promotes the younger generations. So take a look first? ”
Duan Qirui's goal was achieved, so he said: "Since this is the case, then the old man will leave." "Say goodbye and leave.
Watching Duan Qirui leave, Cao Kun's face was gloomy. His think tank Bian Shoujing pondered for a while and said: "Dashuai, Jiangsu is a land of great wealth, should we give up this anointed land to the Anhui system?" ”
Cao Kun said in a deep voice: "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, if you force other dogs to jump off the wall in a hurry, causing the union of the Feng and Anhui systems, then the gains outweigh the losses." Besides, Li Bufan is just a rising boy in his early twenties, what kind of governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang does he call himself, how can the old man in Anhui be embarrassed? Let's wait and see the excitement. ”
-------------
Strength is king.
Li Bufan was born in the military, and Wu Di, a traverser, also believed in this. For the time being, they did not move the official administrative system of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but went all out to rectify the three armies, recruit troops, eliminate the old and weak in the troops to the production and construction corps, recruit young and strong people into the army, and prepare to build 10 divisions and about 120,000 troops.
The ten divisions are: Rongwei Division, which is concurrently served as the division commander by Chief of Staff Li Huashan; Three divisions of the First Army were stationed in Jiangbei with Li Songshan as the commander, and three divisions of the Second Army were garrisoned by Li Huangshan and stationed in Zhejiang; The three divisions of the Third Army are temporarily commanded by the Li Air Force, and since there is no Air Force at present, the Li Air Force is stationed in the vicinity of Ma'anshan, and can quickly communicate with the base vehicles, and its purpose is to quickly seize the southern part of Anhui in the rain; Of course, there is also a guard regiment, that is, the Tiger Ben Regiment that is currently composed of all clone soldiers, with Li Hengshan as the leader.
The number of Tigers has been reduced to less than 1,500, and a large number of clones have been transferred to various departments to serve as officers, with these officers as the backbone, they can maintain absolute control over the troops without opposition. The establishment of the unit was abolished at the brigade level and was set up as a system of five regiments and five battalions of one division. Although the basic clones are brave and good at fighting, they are only suitable for becoming middle and low-level officers, to be precise, even platoon-level officers, battalion level are barely enough, after all, clones are far less flexible than normal officers, and are only suitable for frontal combat. However, there is no way to do it at this stage, and the rabble used to deal with the warlords in the civil war is basically enough, especially the training of the troops is absolutely qualified, and the training and execution of orders by the clone officers can be described as meticulous.
"Antiques, old antiques, too backward, how can such equipment make good equipment?" Li Qing, an expert on light weapons, shook his head while carefully inspecting the equipment of the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau. Of course, as soon as he entered the organization of the military-industrial staff to start producing ammunition for AK, he was full of disappointment with the arsenal.
Li Bufan frowned and said, "The existing equipment can't make weapons? ”
Li said lightly: "Commander, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice." Even I find it difficult to make a first-class rifle with such equipment, and seventy percent of it seems to me to be obsolete. We should now purchase equipment as soon as possible, and at the same time establish a machinery factory and an industrial machine factory, so that we can steadily improve and increase the tightness of the equipment and keep pace with the times. ”
Li Bufan nodded and said, "Okay, it's up to you." What about ammunition production? ”
Li shook his head lightly and said, "It's not good." The current gunpowder power is too poor, and the range of 7, 62 mm * 39 bullets can only reach more than 300 meters, or even 350 meters. But our original ammunition range can reach 600 meters (built hundreds of years later, more powerful), and the production capacity is barely 10,000 rounds a day, which is too little. ”
Li Bufan had a sad face, for automatic weapons, 10,000 rounds of ammunition were finished in a few minutes, so he had to smile bitterly: "It's better than nothing." ”
Wu Di smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother. Didn't you drag your German comrades-in-arms to find out the missing list of the Verdun area? Pierre has already reissued his visa to return to France, confident that everything will be fine. Fortunately, we copied the squires and rich people in Ma'anshan, and the money is still enough for the time being. ”
Li Bufan immediately said: "Then we should let Pierre develop the North African oil fields now." ”
Wu Di smiled bitterly: "Boss, you want him to die." He has only now gone back and has no foundation, can such a huge wealth be kept? It's got to be gradual. I was prepared for this, so I let him go to the Americas to develop a few small oil fields, step by step. ”
Li Bufan frowned and said: "It's so troublesome in their own country, so isn't it even more troublesome abroad?" ”
Wu Di laughed and said: "As long as the wealth does not reach the point where people lose their minds, who will risk killing him?" Besides, is it useful to kill him? If France wants to investigate and not say, even those interests will definitely fall into the hands of France, who wants to offend France for a small oil field? ”
Li Bufan nodded: "Let's not talk about foreign things first." Shanghai is still in the hands of Lu Yongxiang's subordinate He Fenglin, you see if you can take it down. ”
Wu Di sighed and said: "Shanghai is a place that is too intriguing, and all countries will react if they move him." Now the troops have not been trained well, and I personally think that it is not appropriate to poke this hornet's nest now. As long as our 100,000-strong army is trained, then no one will be afraid. ”
Li Bufan sneered: "Now the two provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are in turmoil, and these bureaucrats don't want me, a stinky hairy boy, to stand on their heads and." Opposing my army and shirking taxes just wants me to not be able to hold on. ”
Wu Di smiled cruelly: "That's very simple. That means that the tax chief is wasted, we can send a tax director, and the police chief is not cooperative, so naturally he will be removed from his post and investigated, and we will send another police chief, if the police do not cooperate, then we will change a group of police. Although it is not convenient to do it now, it is still okay to know a little surgery. Playing tricks with the traverser, isn't that looking for death? Even if Jiangsu and Zhejiang are all opposed, so what? The counties and cities are also scattered, and they can be easily broken individually. ”
Li Bufan said with a straight face: "I remember you talking about rebellion." I really have to guard against this hand. Now we are recruiting young people with a primary school education level 3 or higher, and we are starting to train them in government affairs. lest you have to take the burden when you get it, and you can't clean it up. It's just that all of this costs money, and I'm sure that since you want to travel back in time to this era, you won't be unprepared, right? ”
Wu Di looked at Li Bufan vigilantly and shouted, "What do you want to do?" Didn't you give you all the information? ”
Li Bufan sneered: "You treat me as a three-year-old child." According to you, you are highly educated, why do you have no money when you first arrive? What would you do if you were asked to mobilize the clones to rob them? But how can you mix if you don't rob? Where does that what accumulation. ”
"Primitive accumulation." Wu Di corrected it casually, but as soon as he said it, he couldn't wait to give himself a slap.
Li Bufan said with a smile: "Then tell me, where did you come from the original accumulation." I guess, you probably know the secret tombs of a few ancient emperors, and be the captain of the golden school."
Wu Di jumped up and shouted, "You are a tomb robber." Is Lao Tzu like that? Lao Tzu has pirate treasures, shipwreck coordinates on the bottom of the sea, me, me, you, you, you. Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Bufan looking at him proudly, which made him wake up, and he wanted to tear his big mouth.
Li Bufan smiled and said: "Oh, it turns out that there is a treasure, and those who see it have a share." ”
"My money. You don't want to get an inch. ”
"No matter what I do, I don't want to have the opportunity to dig in this life."
"Shame on you."
