Chapter 87: Sending Troops
"Why is that?"
Xu Zibing asked puzzled.
"Bingbing, do you know why your father has been in politics for 20 years? For the Father knows what they want. This Wu Weizhong is no exception, but what he wants is neither promotion nor wealth. Xu Shichang did not answer his daughter's question, but asked himself.
Xu Zibing was even more puzzled and asked, "Isn't it for promotion?" So why is he? She was very dissatisfied with her father's statement, if it wasn't for money, why did he start Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory? If you are not promoted, why should you apply for a military academy and at least be a brigade commander?
Xu Shichang stared at the night outside the window, and pointed to the void in his right hand: "A million kilometers of territory to the north!" ”
Xu Zibing said with a smile: "Daddy is joking, Daddy is obviously afraid that he and Xu Youzheng will join forces to cause trouble for you, so he took him away." ”
Xu Shichang was told by his daughter, stretched out his hand to scratch her nose, and said with a smile: "You are the worm in your father's belly, if your father doesn't want to be like Feng Huafu, he has to take away all the generals around Duan Zhiquan, one is Xu Youzheng, and the other is your Wu Weizhong." ”
Xu Zibing's face flushed when he heard his father say this: "Is he so powerful?" Can you be as famous as Xu Youzheng? Besides, how did Xu Youzheng's father take him away? ”
Xu Shichang stroked his beard and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed!" ”
……
The exhibition of the situation was not as strict as Xu Shichang said to Wu Xiaoliang, Liu Xun obediently returned to Jiangsu without waiting for Wu Xiaoliang to make a move, and Feng Guozhang saw that the general trend had gone and had to announce that he would no longer run for president.
In February, the Northwest Frontier Preparatory Office received an official letter from the 6th Army Headquarters, ordering it to reorganize the army and stand by at any time. Wu Xiaoliang cultivated an unusual flavor behind this sudden order. Sure enough, Xu Shuzheng personally went to the preparatory office to bring a piece of news that stunned him.
"Weizhong, Zhigong agreed to send troops."
How could Duan Qirui agree so happily? Wu Xiaoliang tried to find the answer behind the surface, and Xu Shuzheng directly solved the mystery.
"But the target is not Outer Mongolia, do you remember the Suifenhe tragedy we talked about that day?"
"Of course I do." Wu Xiaoliang was inexplicable.
"The government has officially sent a note to the Kolchak government in Omsk, Russia, that our country will send police forces to the banks of the Suifen River to maintain law and order in the area and protect the lives and property of its businessmen."
After listening to what Xu Shuzheng said, Wu Xiaoliang was shocked for a long time, could the person who gave Duan Qirui his idea also a traverser, isn't this the United Nations peacekeeping police force in later generations.
"Weizhong, Weizhong?"
Xu Shuzheng saw that Wu Xiaoliang was distracted and called him a few times, and a trace of dissatisfaction appeared on his face.
"Father-in-law, whose idea was this?"
Xu Shuzheng sighed in his heart: It's just that Xu Buwu is afraid that you will get in the way and wants to take you away, Zhigong does not agree to send troops to Mongolia, and he has to come up with such a compromise method, that is, to meet your desire to send troops, and without touching Zhigong's bottom line, Xu Buwu's goal is of course to raise his hands in favor. The young people are sharp and don't play cards according to common sense, and the old guys don't like it.
"Weizhong, this is also a helpless way, Zhigong in Outer Mongolia will not let go, and go to the northeast in the name of maintaining law and order, where Tsarist Russia is weak, you can move with your camera."
"Yougong, can you decide to go to the army?"
Xu Shuzheng sighed: "The government does not allocate a single soldier, only the student soldiers of the Preparatory Department and your direct battalion. From the bottom of his heart, he felt sorry for this young man who was full of enthusiasm for serving the country, but unfortunately many things were involuntary. I will support him when appropriate, but the help is limited, and he can only ask for more blessings in the future.
Wu Xiaoliang clapped his hands and said happily: "Great! "Although the result was not satisfactory, he finally had the opportunity to send troops, and what he needed was this legitimate opportunity.
Xu Shuzheng felt like a big stone in his chest, this young man did not care about personal interests and was bent on seeking the country, but he was regarded as a thorn in the side by those scheming politicians, and he was driven away quickly. And as long as he has the opportunity to do things for the country, he can not care about those oppression and exclusion. If Wu Xiaoliang was furious at this moment and scolded those politicians and bastards, he might be more comfortable.
"You can rest assured in terms of equipment, I will resist the pressure and give priority to your troops, but this time the nominal task is to maintain law and order, and it may be difficult to get too many heavy weapons." Xu Shuzheng paused and continued: "Feng Huafu's resignation is a foregone conclusion, and he is no longer a threat to you. Xu Buwu, the new owner of Xinhua Palace, is known as the crystal fox, and he is meticulous in all aspects, in my opinion, he will not only not be difficult for you, but will also do his best to meet your requirements. ”
Xu Shuzheng talked about Xu Shichang, Wu Xiaoliang sighed in his heart, a few days ago he asked himself to discuss the matter of dealing with Liu Xun, it may be just a pretense, what is the ultimate goal? He thought about it, and immediately understood that this crystal old fox did not want him to stay in the city of Beijing to get in the way, and he was willing to drive him by temptation, because the condition he threw out was exactly the dream of sending troops. Now that he has fulfilled his promise, he has done himself a great favor when he studies it carefully. Of course, from Xu Shichang's point of view, it was to drive away a big trouble.
Wu Xiaoliang was silent, Xu Shuzheng thought that he was still worried about the armament issue, and hurriedly relieved his heart and said: "Weizhong, you can rest assured in terms of armaments, I will arrange it properly." ”
"Thank you and take care of me." Wu Xiaoliang is grateful for Xu Shuzheng's concern, and he has already subverted the image of the arrogant and domineering general of the 6th Army in his previous life.
Xu Shuzheng said with concern: "The only thing I'm worried about now is that the student corps has not been trained and its combat effectiveness is weak, and many of these people are from rich families, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to endure the harsh climatic conditions in the Northeast." ”
Regarding the combat effectiveness of the student soldiers, Wu Xiaoliang is still quite confident, they are all enthusiastic young people who are interested in serving the country, as long as they sharpen and guide them a little, they can become a sharp weapon, and the ideal is the most powerful spiritual pillar, he can support a person to overcome unimaginable difficulties and achieve the goal.
"I just beg the bigwigs in Congress not to pull back their legs and be satisfied."
"Those old people, they only know how to go to the Bada Hutong and soak in the bathhouse all day long, and they will make noise in the Congress when they have nothing to do, and they are not very capable, and they can shut up with a word." Xu Shuzheng was very disdainful of the dignified members of Congress.
"Xiaoliang still has a reluctant request."
"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."
"There are a few competent candidates in the preparatory department, and I hope that Xiaoliang will be taken away again." Wu Xiaoliang wanted to bring Wang Huaishi and Qian Mingjun with him, Wang Huaishi was meticulous and capable, and he was an excellent assistant, and Qian Mingjun wanted their Lao Tzu to cast a mouse trap when creating obstacles for himself.
Xu Shuzheng laughed and said: "Don't say it's a few people, it's no problem for you to take the entire preparatory office away." ”
