Han Fuyu ordered Cao Fulin, the new commander of the 29th Division, and Sun Tongxuan, commander of the 20th Division, to immediately arrange for the replenishment of food and ammunition for the troops, and the troops should be ready to set off at any time. After you have made the arrangements, take the commanders of each brigade to the headquarters of the 20th Division for a military meeting. The two agreed to hurry to make arrangements.

The military station here in Luoyang is the general military station for the military supply of the Northwest Army, and the military supplies of the troops stationed in Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qingdao, and Ningbo are all sent here from various places, and then distributed by the military stations according to the needs of each place. Although Wen Chenglie had already transported most of the various materials in the military station to Shaanxi according to Feng Yuxiang's order, there was still a lot of food and a small amount of ammunition left. Han Fuyu occupied Luoyang this time, and these materials, including the personnel of the military station, and even Wen Chenglie, the director of the Northwest Military Station, naturally fell into his hands.

The food and ammunition had to be taken away, otherwise they would have to be blown up and burned. Otherwise, Chiang Kai-shek would suspect that he and Feng Yuxiang still have incense love, and even break the connection, in that case, he Han Fuyu will be displeased on both sides, and if he wants to stand on his own, it will be a fantasy.

It's a pity to burn and blow it up, he Han Fuyu is now back in Kaifeng, it can be said that he is starting from scratch, asking for money without money, and asking for no people. If there is no money, there will be no weapons, and there will be no soldiers, and there will be no troops. Without a team, he Han Fuyu should be unstable as the chairman of Henan Province, and he Han Fuyu will be nothing.

Yesterday, the telegrams sent to all sides, except for Pang Bingxun and Yang Hucheng, have already heard back.

Chiang Kai-shek was the first to reply, and in addition to greatly praising him in the telegram for his deep understanding of righteousness, Chiang Kai-shek returned to him the post of commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army, ordering him to take command of the 20th and 29th Divisions, as well as the units of the Northwest Army stationed in Shaanxi.

Sun Tongxuan and Cao Fulin were extremely excited about Chiang Kai-shek's order, believing that this was equivalent to Chiang Kai-shek's appointment of their commander-in-chief as the new commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army. Sun Tongxuan is better, Cao Fulin is very excited, he is not as good as Sun Tongxuan and Li Shuchun, and even less than his two Li Hanzhang and Qiao Lizhi, these people are Han Fuyu's henchmen. He had been away from Han Fuyu for too long. But if Han Fuyu becomes the commander-in-chief of the New Northwest Army this time, he will have one more meritorious contribution than those generals who are still in Shaanxi, and he will be the veteran of the New Northwest Army.

Regarding the warm attitude of Sun Tongxuan and Cao Fulin, Han Fuyu and Li Shuchun just looked at each other helplessly and smiled bitterly. Chiang Kai-shek ordered him Han Fuyu to command the troops of the Northwest Army in Shaanxi, but Han Fuyu didn't even think about it, not to mention that those generals in Shaanxi still listen to Feng Yuxiang, that is, Feng Yuxiang is no longer in the army, and it is not his turn to be Han Fuyu in this position in the Northwest Army. Although with his exploits over the years, he has successfully ranked among the top and even the core of the Northwest Army, and the number of people in this core is only a dozen or so, but his qualifications can only be ranked in the middle and lower among these people, and he should be ranked with Sun Liangcheng. He and Sun Liangcheng both belong to the one that has both ability and strength. However, if you want to command the Northwest Army, which has been crisscrossing northern China for more than 20 years, these alone are not enough.

Don't say that there are veterans like Liu Yufen, not to mention Lu Junlin and Song Zheyuan, his superiors in his early years, even Sun Liangcheng will not be willing to obey him. If he, Han Fuyu, really wants to be the commander-in-chief, then Chiang Kai-shek will have a lot of peace of mind, and without him using his sword, the Northwest Army will fight and fall apart.

If Chiang Kai-shek ordered him to command Shi Yousan, Ma Hongkui, Pang Bingxun, and even Yang Hucheng and Xi Lichi, it would be more realistic. Han Fuyu believed that with his iron buddy Shi Yousan really helping him, he was trying his best to pull Yang Hucheng down, and it would not be a problem to integrate these people under his command.

It's just that these people's troops are not in Shaanxi now, although he was led by Han Fuyu, and even he instigated and influenced these people to rebel against Feng and join Chiang, but Chiang Kai-shek did not hand over these people to him, but each had his own appointments: Shi Yousan was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the 13th Route Army, Ma Hongkui was appointed as the commander of the 11th Army, Yang Hucheng was appointed as the commander of the new 14th Division and the commander of the Nanyang garrison, although Xi Lichi and Pang Bingxun's names were also on the telegram, but because they had not yet called Chiang Kai-shek to confirm, Chiang Kai-shek was afraid of making jokes, so they had not been appointed for the time being.

Chiang Kai-shek did not hand over these real troops to him, but gave him a vacant position full of imagination. He Han Fuyu is not a three-year-old child, Chiang Kai-shek's purpose, he can figure it out with his toes.

Chiang Kai-shek is nothing more than very optimistic about his Han Fuyu's ability, this time he Han Fuyu can pull out 100,000 Northwest Army to surrender to Chiang Kai-shek in a fit of anger, which not only surprised Feng Yuxiang, but also frightened Chiang Kai-shek. As soon as the troops of more than 100,000 people came, the Northwest Army was immediately injured, and Feng Yuxiang had not had time to pull someone into a fight with him, but he was severely knocked by his own people, although this stick could not kill him Feng Yuxiang, but it also made him unable to fight again. However, Chiang Kai-shek still thought that he was not ruthless enough, and that the Northwest Army still had an army of more than 300,000 troops, which was still the largest and most dangerous local force, and Chiang Kai-shek would not be relieved if the Northwest Army was not completely resolved. The appointment given to him was to let Han Fuyu continue to work hard, pull more people out, and completely bring down Feng Yuxiang. Chiang Kai-shek's subtext is that you can bring as many troops as you can pull, and it depends on your Han Fuyu's ability.

Don't say that he, Han Fuyu, has basically pulled out most of the generals and troops he can influence, even if he, Han Fuyu, can pull out some more troops, he will not do that, he thinks that Chiang Kai-shek is now guarding against him. This time, Shi Yousan, Ma Hongkui, Yang Hucheng and others were not handed over to him for control, which is proof.

Han Fuyu could guess Chiang Kai-shek's thoughts, Chiang Kai-shek was absolutely unwilling to see the Northwest Army that had just defeated a Feng Yuxiang and a new Northwest Army of Han Fuyu come out, even a Northwest Army with a great loss of vitality would not reassure Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek would be even happier if he suddenly conjured up a few or even a dozen small Northwest Army, which were not subordinate to each other. Shi Yousan, Yang Hucheng, Ma Hongkui and others did not hand over the troops to him, because they were afraid that his Han Fuyu's strength would be too strong, and Chiang Kai-shek would have to personally absorb those people.

He still understands the truth of rabbit and dead dog cooking, he doesn't have the financial resources and strength of Song Zhewu, and he doesn't have the ability of Song Zhewu, who has always made him unable to see through what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd.

However, he is still very satisfied with the number of the Third Route Army given to him by Chiang Kai-shek, with this number, as long as he can get money, he can expand the army, there can be two divisions, it can be four divisions, or even six divisions, it depends on his own ability Han Fuyu. He could imagine that Chiang Kai-shek could tolerate his bottom line, and there should be no problem with less than 100,000 people, and such a force would be enough for him to control a province without posing any threat to Chiang Kai-shek.

It seems that he will really have to get closer to Song Zhewu in the future, and if something happens, he will have to take care of it. Han Fuyu secretly made up his mind.

The two pieces of news in the second telegram that Chiang Kai-shek followed made Han Fuyu even more happy, one was that Chiang Kai-shek had ordered Song Zhewu of the Fourth Route Army to send powerful troops to the west in the starry night to meet him Han Fuyu; The second is that Chiang Kai-shek told Han Fuyu that he was now in Nanchang to arrange an invasion of the remnants of the Guangxi Gui system, and he could not get out of Henan for the time being, but he had entrusted his wife Song Meiling to come to Kaifeng Labor Army in person and bring him 5 million oceans as a reward. He also told him that Chiang Kai-shek knew that the Northwest Army was very miserable and owed a lot of wages, and the money was to supplement his previous arrears, which meant that the future military salaries would be paid correctly.

This made Han Fuyu very happy, but he would not use this money to make up for the salary, it was Feng Yuxiang who owed the salary, not him Han Fuyu, why let him make up for this hole. The 5 million will be used to buy guns, buy artillery, and recruit soldiers.

What makes him happiest is not the 5 million oceans, although the money is good, but life is more important. Han Fuyu was most happy when Chiang Kai-shek said that he had given an order to Song Zhewu to lead his troops to meet him in the starry night. Based on his observation, this Song Zhewu didn't know what medicine Chiang Kai-shek gave him, and he bowed down to Chiang Kai-shek, but obeyed his orders, and if he had Chiang Kai-shek's words, he didn't worry that Song Zhewu would not come to answer him.

There is a reason why Han Fuyu very much hopes that Song Zhewu will come to pick him up. With his many years of experience in warfare, one might even say intuitive, he always thought that he was still in danger, even dangerous! There must be pursuers, and now his troops are still unstable, and they can't engage the pursuing Northwest Army at all, otherwise they are likely to surrender at the first touch. Thankfully, the pursuers could not arrive until late afternoon or even midnight at the earliest, and he still had time to withdraw to the east of Gongxian. But for some reason, there was always a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, and this uneasiness could also be said to be intuition, Han Fuyu was not the first time he had this feeling in his years of fighting, which couldn't help but make him cautious. But fortunately, Song Zhewu will arrive soon, even if there are pursuers, he is not afraid.

However, the last news in this telegram made him a little unhappy, that is, Chiang Kai-shek told him that the troops of the relevant Central Army had been ordered to actively advance to western Henan; Tang Shengzhi's Fifth Route Army marched into Henan; appointed Tian Songyao of the Sichuan Army as the commander-in-chief of the 12th Route Army, with jurisdiction over the 29th Army and other departments; The 29th Army of the Sichuan Army was organized into the 14th Route Army, with Deng Xihou as the commander-in-chief, and attacked Guanzhong.

The two route troops in Sichuan have nothing to do with him, and the troops of the Central Army are okay, but Tang Shengzhi's Fifth Route Army gives him some headaches, and Tang Shengzhi's Fifth Route Army is also a rootless duckweed, and it will be difficult for him to stay in Henan and not leave. But even if he doesn't want to, he has no way to oppose it now, who knows if Feng Yuxiang will send troops to fight him in anger, if there are two people Tang Shengzhi and Song Zhewu blocking for him, he will have the bottom, and it will be much safer.

In addition, Shi Yousan and Ma Hongkui both telegraphed back to him that they had received an order from Chiang Kai-shek to go directly to Xuchang. Yang Hucheng and Xi Lichi did not call him back, it is estimated that they were directly in contact with Chiang Kai-shek, otherwise Chiang Kai-shek would not have compiled a number for Yang Hucheng. It's just that Pang Bingxun hasn't called back, which makes Han Fuyu a little uneasy, but it's not far from Gong County, and he has already sent someone to contact him as soon as he arrives in Luoyang.

Han Fuyu thought about it for a while, and saw that Sun Tongxuan and Cao Fulin went to organize the troops, and also took Wu Huawen and Wang Chenghua to prepare to return to the headquarters of the 20th Division, which was also his temporary headquarters of the Third Route Army.

Walking down the steps of the parade platform, he said to Wu Huawen who was following him as he walked: "Shao Zhou! When you get to Kaifeng, you won't follow me anymore. ”

Han Fuyu's abrupt words made Wu Huawen stunned, Wu Huawen didn't understand what Han Fuyu meant, and asked hesitantly: "...... teacher?"

Meaning that his title was wrong, Wu Huawen hurriedly changed his words and said: "Commander-in-chief, where did Shao Zhou do not do well?" Please also ask the commander-in-chief to make it clear. ”

Han Fuyu waved his hand and said: "Shao Zhou, don't get me wrong, you are already the education chief of the officer education corps with Mr. Feng, how can you say that you are also a brigade commander, take the risk to run back with me Han Fuyu, how can I treat you badly!" This time, Chairman Chiang gave me 5 million oceans, and if we have money, we can buy weapons and recruit soldiers, and I want to build a pistol brigade and make you the brigade commander. ”

When Wu Huawen heard that he was going to be the commander of the pistol brigade, he didn't notice that he had reached the last step under his feet, and he stumbled under his feet and almost fell. Said loudly: "Chief Xie commands cultivation!" ”

Han Fuyu turned around, waved his hand to stop Wu Huawen, who was still about to speak, and said: "Shao Zhou, don't thank me first, I can say ugly things ahead, I want an elite army like Wenge's guard brigade, I will give you a year, if you can't do it, I will change people." ”

Wu Huawen nodded again and again. Wu Huawen was promoted, Wang Chenghua on the side was hot, Wang Chenghua's expression Han Fuyu saw it in his eyes, and said to Wang Chenghua with a smile: "Don't be blushing, stay by my side for two years with peace of mind, and I will let you out when the time comes, as for whether you can be the battalion commander or the regiment commander, it depends on your own creation." I, Lao Han, will not press you under his hands and let you be aggrieved for a lifetime, whether you become a Chan or a snake depends on your own ability.

Han Fuyu was about to return to his general headquarters, and when he saw the guards standing guard in front of the "Guanghan Palace Gate", he couldn't help but stop.

The so-called Guanghan Palace is a lounge with windows in the north and south under the platform where Han Fuyu just came down. The West Engineer Barracks was the barracks when Wu Peifu was training in Luoyang, and this platform was Wu Peifu's parade platform. Wu Peifu put a lot of effort into the training of the troops that year, practicing three nines in winter and three dogs in summer, even if it was windy and rainy, it never stopped, and the room below was a special place for officers to rest. Because this room is well ventilated, it is as cool as autumn in summer, and of course, if you don't raise the brazier in winter, it is even more cold and biting, so it was called Guanghan Palace by the officers and soldiers at that time, and this name has been passed down to this day. The military and political dignitaries of the Northwest Army, who were captured by Han Fuyu in Shaanzhou and Luoyang, are now locked up here.

Han Fuyu believed that the Northwest Army would absolutely not be able to stop the attack of the Central Army this time, not to mention that he had pulled out more than 100,000 horses. This time the Northwest Army can be said to be a big injury, the Northwest Army is over, Feng Yuxiang is also finished, and the remaining Yan Xishan will not be able to become a climate at all. If no one takes the lead, no one from other local powerful factions will dare to resist the central government in an armed manner, and the country will be stable for a while.

According to Han Fuyu's idea, as soon as he arrived in Kaifeng, he would immediately expand the army, suppress bandits and reassure the people, rectify order in all parts of Henan, and restore the people's livelihood. He believes that Liang Shuming's ideas are very insightful, and rural construction is also very feasible. Not only that, but he also wants to vigorously carry out national education in Henan, and he wants people to see that Han Fuyu can not only govern the army when he gets off the horse, but also manage the people when he gets off the horse. Let the people know that he Han Fuyu not only has the talent of a general, but also the rule of the prime minister.

And if he wants to build Henan well, the most important thing is to do a good job in civil affairs, and the military is only an auxiliary means, of course, he will not forget to develop his army, and without the army, there will be nothing for him Han Fuyu, which he has deeply experienced in the past six months.

But if he wants to do a good job in civil affairs, he needs a lot of talent. There are many military talents under his command who can fight and kill, but there is almost no talent who can handle civil affairs, and it is not easy to gather a large number of such talents in a short period of time. Coincidentally, he coerced a lot of civilian personnel of the Northwest Army from Shaanzhou and Luoyang this time, and even several directors of his Henan Provincial Political Axe, most of these people Han Fuyu understand, most of them are very capable talents, if they are persuaded and follow him Han Fuyu, then he Han Fuyu is a gathering of civil and military forces, and he can let go and act with ease.

For low-level personnel, Han Fuyu believes that there is no big problem, Feng Yuxiang is not a national political axe, these people are not there to have a bite to eat, as long as they are not corrupt and solicit bribes, he Han Fuyu will definitely give them much more than Feng Yuxiang gave them. At least the military salary he will pay to the troops next month must be higher than that of the Northwest Army, and he doesn't dare to think of a military salary like Song Zhewu's Fourth Route Army, and even if he thinks about it, he can't do it. However, like the Central Army, even if it is close, it will be much higher than the military salary of the Northwest Army. However, Han Fuyu had already made up his mind that the military salaries given to officers at all levels must be higher than those of the Central Army, even if he Han Fuyu paid out of his own pocket, he did not hesitate to do so.

However, it is a little difficult to deal with these high-level civil servants, these people have been with Feng Yuxiang for a long time, especially Feng Yuxiang has a habit, that is, he respects literati very much, and they all have some feelings for Feng Yuxiang. For his betrayal of Feng Yuxiang, this matter is very dissatisfied, even hostile, Li Shuchun has already hit a nail.

But Han Fuyu still couldn't give up these people, he decided to make an effort himself!

Some book friends said that Deep Blue did not have a good grasp of the amount of money in this article, and they all thought that it would be hundreds of thousands of oceans at that time. Therefore, Shenlan wants to say here that in the historical data, Chiang Kai-shek was very happy to throw Feng into Jiang this time, and he gave Han Fuyu and Shi Yousan 5 million oceans each (there is also a saying that they gave a total of 15 million oceans to the two of them), and gave hundreds of thousands of oceans to other people, such as only 300,000 to Ma Hongkui.
