In the past 100 years, China has been defeated in foreign wars repeatedly, its national self-esteem has been lost, and its international prestige has fallen again and again. But he can't say that, otherwise the impression of being frivolous and impetuous will outweigh the losses.

"Zhishuai, the principal once admonished us that soldiers take obedience as their duty, and Zhishuai asked Xiaoliang to beat whoever Xiaoliang wanted."

Xu Shuzheng didn't drink a sip of tea, and almost squirted out, if this is said by a military man, it would be more appropriate, which of you Wu Xiaoliang pretended to be vulgar?

Duan Qirui was not angry, he was slightly disappointed in his heart, and asked Wu Xiaoliang like this, in addition to testing his attitude, he also had the meaning of taking the school examination. However, this son expressed his support for himself, and did not do much beaking, but he was rare and stable at a young age, and he was worthy of a big responsibility.

On August 24, Feng Guozhang was officially inaugurated as the president of the Republic of China, and the first round of the contest between him and Duan Qirui was unexpectedly defeated because of the sudden appearance of Wu Xiaoliang, and the strength of his direct family was greatly damaged. Since then, he has often disagreed with Duan Qirui in the opinions of the state, and the key official documents from the State Council are often left behind, which caused Duan Qirui to jump like thunder.

Wu Xiaoliang really didn't want to participate in the political struggle, he regretted it last time he accidentally got involved, and even more unintentionally affected Xu Zibing's father, Xu Zibing didn't care about the voice on the phone, Wu Xiaoliang couldn't bear to listen to it, and blurted out: "I owe you a love" He regretted it, but it was too late to take it back. Seeing this, Xu Zibing's voice immediately turned cold, "I will do the same to irrelevant people, you don't owe me anything." ”

There was a hissing current on the phone, Wu Xiaoliang was upset for a while, he was busy with the expansion of the group in the past few days, and he must ask her to go to the Liuguo Hotel to eat Western food when he is free.

Offending politicians for no reason will cause endless trouble in the future, so after awarding the medal and award, he plunged into the barracks and never came out again. Now he is a dignified major general brigade commander, and the original 15th Mixed Regiment was expanded into a mixed brigade and the number was changed to the 4th Mixed Brigade. Xu Shuzheng took great care of him, and although there was only one brigade, in the end it was expanded to the size of a division, with five infantry regiments under his headquarters, one artillery regiment, one cavalry battalion, one engineer battalion, one baggage battalion, one communications battalion, one recruit battalion, and one reconnaissance battalion directly under the brigade headquarters, with a total number of 8,000 people.

The sheer number of people was not the advantage of the 4th Mixed Brigade, it had the advantage of having superior firepower that other units did not have. Each infantry company was equipped with 12 Madsen light machine guns, and the brigade had more than 5oo light machine guns; In addition, each company has a machine gun platoon, with 4 MGO8 heavy machine guns, and more than 15O heavy machine guns in the whole brigade; The artillery regiment has 54 field guns of the 75mm 1897 model; The brigade has more than 73oo Mauser G98 rifles and 2OO Browning M19OO pistols.

With the support of Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng, all the military supplies of the 6th Army Headquarters were given priority to meet the needs of the 4th Mixed Brigade, and Wu Xiaoliang wiped out the already insufficient equipment in the arsenal of the 6th Army Headquarters like a money fan. The soldiers mainly came from the new barracks of the Beijing-Tianjin Garrison Command, and except for a few of the former cadets who returned to Baoding, the vast majority of them stayed to become middle- and lower-level officers who were formed into a mixed brigade after the expansion, so half of the students in the fifth phase of the Baoding Military Academy all dropped out, and Yang Zude felt that he had the responsibility of dereliction of duty and neglect of supervision, so he resigned and returned to the township.

Fu Zuoyi was promoted to colonel deputy brigade commander and chief of staff, Dong Haibin was promoted to colonel of the First Infantry Regiment, Wu Jingshan was promoted to colonel of the artillery regiment, and Wu Xiaoliang was appointed as the chief officer of a department and the colonel of the brigade political department, which belonged to the deputy brigade level, and was mainly responsible for the ideological work of officers and soldiers.

Because there is no doctrine, Wu Xiaoliang set up an organization in the brigade, with patriotic reunification as the purpose, all officers and soldiers in the brigade must join, every Sunday everyone must live an organizational life in the company, he hopes to make the thinking of all soldiers in this way to get the greatest degree of unity, he came from that era to know the greatness of thought, and the combat effectiveness he produces can be used with any weapon in this era.

A month after the formation of the army, Wu Xiaoliang pulled the Fourth Mixed Brigade out of Beijing City and took it to Nanyuan for training, due to the support of the 6th Military Department, bullets and shells were splashed out, at least nearly 100,000 bullets were consumed every day, as well as a base number of shells, Xu Shuzheng was distressed after getting the report, and he didn't know that oil and rice were expensive, these were the things he and Duan Qirui begged their grandfather to tell their grandmother to come to the powers, although the ammunition was open to supply, but there was no reason to waste it so much, immediately took a telegram, stopped the exercise and stationed on the spot.

Wu Xiaoliang naturally knew that Xiao Xu was distressed by the ammunition when he received the telegram to stop the exercise, but the second telegram that followed, he was a little confused.

"Brother Weizhong, your department will immediately drive to Wanping Station."

There was no reason or any explanation, but he could sense that something was wrong in just a few words.

Sure enough, something big happened in Hunan. The 6th Rong Ting of the Gui Department sent two divisions of Tan Yaoming into Hunan Province, and the Beiyang Army was defeated, and Duan Qirui decided to send Wu Xiaoliang's Fourth Mixed Brigade south to fight the fire.

At Wanping Station, Xu Shuzheng arrived with the supplies, and when he saw Wu Xiaoliang, he said worriedly: "Tan Chaling has attracted 6 Wuming, the situation in Hunan is corrupt, and Gong Zhi ordered you to rush to help." ”

Wu Xiaoliang buried himself in rectifying military affairs all day long and didn't ask about foreign affairs, no wonder he felt sudden, in fact, it was not difficult to guess if he knew about Lailong. After Duan Qirui formed a cabinet for the second time, he declared war on Germany and Austria, and loans from various countries came one after another, and even exempted the Gengzi indemnity inherited by the former Qing Dynasty, and the Beiyang government greatly increased its strength, so it wanted to unify the whole country by force, and was originally ready to encroach step by step, but it was expected that the Gui Department supported Sun Yat-sen to set up a military government in Guangzhou to crusade against Beijing, and Duan Qirui was relieved of his post as a 6 Rong Ting and Guangxi patrol envoys, and listed him as a wanted criminal crusade. And Hunan, as a buffer between the north and the south, has become a battlefield for the two sides, and poor Tan Yanmin drove the wolf at the front door and entered the tiger at the back door.

The Hunan people's local concept is very heavy, the Beiyang government insisted on the Hunan people governing Hunan during the period, Fu Liangzuo, who was born in Hunan people, was not bought because he grew up in the north, and he wanted to slowly try to figure it out when he first became the governor of Hunan, but 6 Rong Ting coveted Hunan for a long time, and sent his subordinate Tan Haoming to invade Hunan in the name of Sun Wen's protector, Duan Qirui had to transfer the eighth division of Wang Ruxian in Machang, and the twentieth division of Fan Guozhang in Baoding into Hunan. At the end of September, Lin Xiumei, the envoy of Hengyang Town, and Liu Jianfan, the envoy of Lingling Town, announced their independence from the Hunan Governor. Tan Haoming's subordinates killed Fu Liangzuo and Fan Guozhang, and Wang Ruxian, who was stationed in Liuyang, had no choice but to retreat to Pingjiang with the Eighth Division.

Wu Xiaoliang stepped on the southbound train full of concerns, and his Fourth Mixed Brigade was full of morale, singing war songs and leaving for Hunan.
