Chapter 138 Marine Brigade
Chapter 138
The Yangtze River basin can be said to be the economic lifeblood of the country, and the line of Wuhu, Anqing, Wuhan and Chongqing, which Fang Jianxiong painstakingly experienced, can be said to cover the most economically developed areas in China today. The exception is that freak in Shanghai.
The "Chuguan" is a submarine gunboat, and Zhang Zhidong ordered it from Japan. Captain Shen Honglie never thought that his name would reach Fang Dashuai's ears and be summoned. Anyway, it's always a good thing. It can be because of the confusion of time and space, Shen Honglie did not enter Beijing after the Republic of China, but became the first mate of the "Chuguan", when the navy revolted, the captain of the Manchurian abandoned the ship, and Shen Honglie took over as the captain proudly.
Fang Jianxiong only discovered by chance that there was such a fierce man in the Second Fleet (Yangtze River Fleet) in Chapter 138 Marine Brigade. Shen Honglie left the deepest impression on Fang Jianxiong during the Anti-Japanese War in history, when Shen Honglie, the mayor of Qingdao, led his troops to scuttle his warships, dismantle the naval guns, and insisted on fighting in the name of the Marine Corps. The marines led by Shen Honglie, although they have been failing, they are not discouraged, retreating and resisting until the swan song of Madang Fortress.
In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in history, the navy was probably the most determined group of people to fight, so the navy was completely annihilated, so the survivors who got off the warship picked up their rifles and continued to fight.
Fang Jianxiong was fortunate to spend some books about the navy of the Republic of China, and knew a series of unyielding names such as Shen Honglie, Chen Ce, Chen Shaokuan, etc.
"Report!" A loud voice sounded at the door of the command cabin, and Fang Jianxiong inside said in a low voice: "Come in." ”
"Shen Honglie is here on order!" With his head held high and his discipline in strict order, Shen Honglie walked into the cabin door. The Shen Honglie in history first studied in Japan, and after returning to China, he worked in the Northeast for many years. When playing with devils. That's not ambiguous at all, this guy is still strict zhòng's unhappy old Jiang.
The situation of the dominance of the navy has been twisted in this time and space. Shen Honglie is a native of Hubei and the soul of the Northeast Department of the Navy in history. In this time and space, the navy of the Republic of China still has internal fighting, but the various factions are scattered in various fleets, and it is difficult for the so-called factions to appear. So. There is no need to hang a banner of "Four Seas and One Heart" on the battleship.
Fang Jianxiong looked at this famous anti-Japanese hero in history. Shen Honglie is not the type of tall and mighty, so he is still a little bookish. Shen Honglie is also looking at this legendary figure, so young, but he has achieved today's immortal achievements. is also a young man, and it seems that he is older, and Shen Honglie is very ashamed in comparison.
"Sit down. I'm looking for you for something to say. Fang Jianxiong smiled, trying to make himself look as amiable as possible.
"Just stand on your back!" Shen Honglie straightened his waist and put on a posture of listening to the inspection. Fang Jianxiong was not reluctant. He nodded and said, "Wusongkou Fortress, Jiangyin Fortress, and Madang Fortress." All of them will be assigned to the ranks of the navy. It is not enough to have artillery to defend the fortress, but also a marine. I thought about it, the Marine Corps is a new thing, for the time being, it will be organized into a brigade, and you will be the brigade commander of the Marine Corps. What do you think? ”
Shen Honglie's brain couldn't turn a little? It was like being smashed in the face by a large piece of pie falling from the sky, and it took a while to ease up, and he hesitated for a while and said: "Back to Fushuai, I still want to be on the battleship." ”
This answer was a bit unexpected by Fang Jianxiong, Shen Honglie actually refused the position of Marine Brigade Commander. What is the specific reason, Fang Jianxiong didn't want to understand, and his face sank directly: "Shen Honglie, this is an order, Article 1 of the Regulations on National Defense Personnel, recite it again." "It is estimated that there are few naval officers who are willing to leave the battleship to become a marine, so Fang Jianxiong simply came hard.
"A qiē action listen to the command! That's it! Shen Honglie replied loudly, and Fang Jianxiong snorted twice before saying: "Go down, go to the Second Fleet Command tomorrow to take up your post, this Marine Corps, the Ministry of Defense only provides funds, and you can recruit the personnel you need." Saying that, Fang Jianxiong waved his hand, Shen Honglie's face was bitter, and he retreated unwillingly. He has no way at all, and Fang Dashuai is really too far behind Shen Honglie, a naval lieutenant.
The military order was like a mountain, and Shen Honglie had no choice, pinching his nose and admitting this errand.
In the spring, the river is as green as blue, and it is difficult for people who have not stayed on the Yangtze River to imagine such a scene. Fang Jianxiong, who was standing on the deck, looked at the surging river and couldn't help but think of that sentence: This is not water, this is the inexhaustible blood of heroes in the past 20 years.
In another time and space, when the nation was in danger, the water of the Huangpu River was dyed red with blood by the courage to go forward and succeed. "Soldiers from all over the world, hearing the righteousness of going to the difficulty, the day is coming, they are on the front line with their flesh and blood, they have built trenches, there is no retreat, the position is reduced to ashes, the military spirit is still like a rock, the courage of the battle, the fierceness of the death, enough to show the spirit of national independence, lay the foundation for the rejuvenation of China." Every time I think of this passage, it always makes people feel strong and intense.
Fang Jianxiong absolutely could not accept that such a tragedy would be staged again, and that the heroic soldiers would build the Great Wall with flesh and blood against the large-caliber naval guns of the Japanese Navy to defend the last bit of dignity of the nation.
In this time and space, probably only Fang Jianxiong has such ambitions, to lead the country on the road to rejuvenation at this historical juncture.
Nanjing was in front of me, a salute sounded on the Lion Rock Fort, the battleship slowly docked, and a long voice on the dock: "Lizheng!" ”
Fang Jianxiong descended from the battleship and shook hands with a group of officers led by Xu Shaojiao. In the accompanying crowd, Fang Jianxiong saw Xiong Kewu, Bai Wenwei, Gu Zhongchen, and of course, Sun Yue, the newly released commander of the Nanjing garrison.
Sun Yue is pro-Huang Xing, after Sun and Huang fell out, without Yuan Shikai, the great enemy of the restoration, there is a tendency for the two to go further and further. Huang Xing became the Minister of National Defense, and Sun Yue, as a pro-Huang Xing general, decided to launch a mutiny and open the city gates to welcome the Wehrmacht after making private contact with the Military Intelligence Agency. At that time, the die-hard faction in Nanjing was represented by Chen Qimei, and Huang Yin, Li Liejun and others were entouraged. One night in Nanjing, these people were all taken down, and all of them were sent to Beijing, whether they were under house arrest or done off, it was not Sun Yue's concern.
Nanjing has two divisions of the People's Army, equipped with Japanese weapons, and Suzhou also has two divisions of the so-called Jiangsu Army, whose equipment is mainly exported from Wuhu. At present, all these troops are concentrated in Nanjing to be reorganized. Fang Jianxiong didn't have the idea of taking down all these people, but except for Sun Yue, no one else would stay in Nanjing to lead the troops. The basic path is that those from the south go to the north to lead troops, and those from the north come to the south. Xiong Kewu and Gu Zhongchen will both go to the Northeast to take over the reorganized Northeast Army.
Coming to Nanjing again, Fang Jianxiong was a little emotional, passing by Nanjing back then, and now he is now the number one person in this country. Those who once called for wind and rain in the political arena, tried to fight against the tide of history, and they were swept away.
Looking at the city of Nanjing, Fang Jianxiong couldn't help but think of Sun Wen who went to Japan, a famous revolutionary, what kind of way would he choose to face the new Republic of China in the future? In Fang Jianxiong's mind, Sun Zhi's revolutionary spirit is admirable, but his ability to do things in a down-to-earth manner is too bad, and his ambition has always been not small.
After the reorganization of the Nanjing troops, they will be stationed in Hunan, and the Hunan troops will be bound for Nanjing. Fang Jianxiong is doing everything possible to guard against the formation of warlords, and sometimes it's really tiring to think about it.
I saw a group of people and others, and they got on the bus and went to Nanjing. Along the way, Xu Shaojiao reported on the progress of Nanjing's reorganization and the reversal of the original Kuomintang military figures. Fang Jianxiong deliberately mentioned Lin Shuqing, this gentleman has Zheng Quan's kind words, and he is indeed a military talent, Fang Jianxiong decided to use him and give him the position of division commander of type B, provided that he first went to Wuhu for three months of study.
"Fuguo, I stayed in Wuhu Luda for a while and found a problem." Xu Shaojiao took this opportunity to give advice, and Fang Jianxiong smiled: "Brother, please speak." Xu Shaojiao said: "A separate artillery school should be built, and it should not be mixed." ”
Artillery is undoubtedly the top priority in the future construction of the army, and Fang Jianxiong has not paid much attention to this construction mentioned by Xu Shaojiao. He immediately sat up straight and said, "Okay, I think we can set up an artillery school in Nanjing, referred to as the Nanjing Artillery School." ”
Duan Qirui and Zhang Zuolin went south together, escorted by a platoon of national defense forces, and the road was easy. Duan Qirui didn't care too much about Jiang Fangzhen's dispatch of troops to escort him, and if he was the winner, he would do the same.
After getting off the train from Pukou, Duan Qirui didn't expect Fang Jianxiong to personally cross the river to greet him, and respectfully called him: "Old Zhi, it's been hard all the way." Duan Qirui saw Feng Guozhang and Cao Kun in the crowd of greetings, and after these two walked around, they did not go north to go home, but turned around and came to Nanjing.
How to say it, they are all unwilling to be lonely.
Although Duan Qirui was moved, his face was very calm. After some greetings, when crossing the river by boat, Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, Cao Kun and others talked together, and asked about the recent situation of these old brothers who had suffered defeat on the battlefield in Shandong.
"Zhiquan, this trip up the river is a complete eye-opener." As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of Ma'anshan and said, "A section upstream by boat is the Ma'anshan Iron and Steel Plant, and those big chimneys are exciting to look at." When I arrived in Wuhu, I knew what an industrial zone was, just a Wuhu arsenal, with an annual output of 50,000 rifles, and could also produce artillery of various calibers. It is expected that in another year of construction, Wuhu will be able to produce German artillery of 105 and 150 calibers. Beiyang is indeed in the past. ”rq!!!
