"The post of Deputy Secretary of the Army is vacant...... Hehe, it's quite a big deal with a bad check! It seems that Nanjing really intends to fool us as the wronged boss. ”

Slapping the telegram sent by the Nanjing Provisional Government on the table, Hu Rui smiled coldly.

They have already torn their faces to this, and they are embarrassed to send this telegram. I don't know what the artillery party thinks, it all relies on one mouth to fool others to sell their lives, and it really fools the national defense forces and the three provinces as the main culprit?!

After the Nanjing Provisional Government formed a cabinet, it was also called the Cabinet of Vice Ministers. The original deputy minister of the army was Huang Xing, a veteran of the League, and regardless of whether the official title of the deputy minister of the army was worth much, it would have taken effort for the Nanjing Provisional Government to persuade Huang Xing to give up this position.

A deputy commander of the army wants to fool Lao Tzu to sell his life, and he wants to be beautiful! Accepting this spoof of the deputy minister's false position is tantamount to acknowledging the Nanjing Provisional Government, and wanting to play word games with labor and capital, dreaming!

"Cough, Nanjing's side is slapping yourself in the face!"

Guan Ziqing copied a faint Shaoxing accent and said sarcastically quietly. As he spoke, his eyes skimmed Sun Wu and the others who were present.

It is already open that the marshal of his own family and the alliance will not deal with each other, and these people led by Sun Wu are all from the alliance. I always feel uneasy about keeping these people in the joint government of the three provinces. In addition, Guan Ziqing and others are all former Qing bureaucrats, and the idea of the same villagers and factions in the officialdom is very serious. Since Anqing's uprising, he has always regarded himself as a "descendant", and Master Shaoxing has a great ability, but he is also ruthless to potential opponents who may threaten his status.

Guan Ziqing and others have always looked down on Sun Wu, a temporary official of Qian Wuchang who was born in the alliance. Seize the moment and strike the road.

"Master, it's almost there."

looked at Sun Wu's uncertain face. Hu Rui said coldly.

Political factional struggles have always existed, and Hu Rui has turned a blind eye to the conspiracy and infighting among his subordinates, and as long as it does not develop to the point of communiqué personal vendetta and threatens the interests of the coalition government of the three provinces, it is still tolerable.

"Okay, let's continue the meeting and talk about the recent situation in various departments."

Throwing aside the telegram from the Nanjing Provisional Government, Hu Rui continued the meeting.

"Xiaolian, the soldiers and equipment required for the two second-class divisions and the three integrated divisions trained in Jihua in the third expansion of our army have all been put in place. In addition to the reorganization of the Seventh Division, the grass-roots non-commissioned officers and officers of the three second-class divisions mainly came from the reserve forces in Anhui, Jiangxi, and other places. All the backbone personnel of the local garrison regiment have been put in place, and two ships of munitions were sent from the other side of Wuhu overnight last night. The improved version of the Commission 1888 rifle, ZB30 light machine gun, Stern submachine gun, Type 89 grenadier canister, mortar, and other munitions and equipment required by the three second division regiments were all transported. At present, the reorganized Seventh Division is being reorganized and trained in Wuhu, and all three second-class divisions remain in Hubei for reorganization. The formation of the fourth division is very fast, and it is expected that it will be able to initially form combat effectiveness in about a month after the year! ”

Zhang Xiaohuai got up and introduced.

After Hubei stabilized, Jiang Baili couldn't wait to rush back to Wuhu to take charge of the preparations for the Wuhu Army University. Due to the large amount of work required for the third round of expansion. The departments involved are too wide, so Zhang Xiaohuai took the lead. Take overall responsibility for the third round of expansion of the National Defense Force.

"Brother Runnong has worked hard. The expansion work must be stepped up, and after the year, Beiyang is afraid that it will be a real fight. Brother Runnong will take care of one or two more, and if there is any difficulty, he will mention it directly. ”

Hu Rui nodded, "Lu Shi Sanjie" is by no means in vain, a reorganized division plus three B divisions totaling more than 43,000 people, involving the reserves, the equipment department, the Beiyang Army prisoners of war, and people from all walks of life. It's a lot of work just to coordinate up and down. Zhang Xiaohuai still has a considerable reputation in domestic military circles, and his status and weight are not mentioned, so it is the best choice for him to take charge of this expansion work.

"Xiaolian, then I'll say it directly. In this expansion, a number of outstanding non-commissioned officers and soldiers were transferred from the reorganized Third and Fourth Divisions. It was promoted and supplemented with the newly expanded troops. But even so, prisoners of war from the Beiyang Army and the Nanjing People's Army, patriotic students from all over the country, and so on, still occupy the majority. The composition of the newly expanded army is somewhat chaotic, and ideological work needs to be strengthened. The military quality of veterans of the Beiyang Army and the recruited recruits is different, and it takes more effort to integrate the troops. If we want to achieve the same combat effectiveness and military quality as the six integrated divisions of the Wehrmacht before, it is very necessary to extend the training time and hold large-scale confrontation exercises in addition to actual combat experience! The other is the local garrison regiment that acts as a reserve, and this expansion has transferred a large number of reserve cadres. The existing garrison regiments urgently need to be replenished, and the two provinces of Hubei and Jiangxi have only one garrison regiment, is it too few? ”

Zhang Xiaohuai was very satisfied with the equipment allocation of the integrated division and the second class division of the National Defense Force, but he was quite suspicious of the slightly chaotic way of coming from the officers and men. He and Jiang Baili were both pioneers in opposing private ownership of the military and advocating the concept of the National Defense Force.

The overly complicated way of coming has caused a disunity in the style of life and the state of mind, and it is also a bit difficult to do work. Unlike the previous six reorganized divisions, all of which were officers from the training battalion, the newly expanded four divisions are miscellaneous, and they need to be put into great efforts to reorganize.

"A number of political work cadres from the 1st, 2nd, and 5th divisions will be transferred from the teaching battalion to supplement the newly expanded troops and strengthen ideological education work! In addition, as for the confrontation drill and training to continue, Brother Runnong drafted a jihua, I will approve! Garrison Corps...... For the time being, we will first expand by one, and recruit a number of qualified young men to supplement the local garrison regiments in various parts of Anhui to fill the vacancies. ”

Hu Rui waved his hand, without any discount, and did everything as he could. For the garrison regiment serving as a reserve, Hu Rui did not plan to let go, the Army University in Wuhu was preparing, and Jiang Baili personally taught it. It's not too late to wait for the graduates of Lu University to come out and expand the disaster star, anyway, four divisions have been expanded at once, and the number of troops is enough.

Zhang Xiaohuai was warm, full of the happiness of being trusted, and suddenly had a kind of pride and ambition to die as a confidant.

"Sir, the batch of 200,000 Commission 1888 rifles imported from Germany is also in place today. The Anqing Manufacturing Bureau is in the process of redeploying manpower and production lines to modify these rifles with reference to the previous improvement plan. We now have 300,000 Commission 1888 rifles in stock, and the number is still growing. Other than that. The first batch of 500 pre-produced SKS-41 semi-automatic rifles delivered by the Hanyang Gun Plant has been distributed to various units for use. ”

The head of the armament department got up and introduced.

At present, the German army is massively replacing the Commission 1888 rifle with the new Mauser 98 rifle, waiting for the end of these old guns to be either mothballed or recycled. Because of the short time of equipment and the huge production volume, the warehouses of the German Army stocked up on a large number of brand new Commission 1888, and the quality of the original German factory was much better than that of the imitation of the Hanyang Arsenal. With a little improvement and a solution to the hidden dangers such as magazine cracking and explosion, this German first rifle with a small-caliber, smokeless propellant still has a huge market and is not at all obvious on the battlefield of World War I.

Another is that the cheap and wealthy German Army is replacing the Commission 1888 in the active army with the new Mauser 981 rifle.

Good quality and low price!

Except that the rate of fire and weight were slightly inferior to the Mauser 98. This is a great value for money firearm! Whether it's for your own use or hoarding for sale is a pretty good option.

"Marshal, all the officers and soldiers who were injured and retired in the previous battle in the three towns of Wuchang have been resettled. At the Wuchang Police Station, 34 former officers and men of the National Defense Force who retired due to injuries came to report for duty, and they are currently undergoing pre-job training. ”

Sun Wu lost no time in getting up and said, brushing his sense of existence.

He was born in the League and chose to stay in Wuchang at the beginning. If we want to gain weight in the coalition government of the three provinces, we will have to put in more efforts.

"The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat. Take off your military uniform. That's my soldier too! They are all heroes, and they can't shed any more tears after bloodshed, so don't treat them lightly. ”

His expression darkened, and Hu Rui sighed.

"Yes!"

Sun Wu didn't dare to slack off, and he was busy admitting.

Several subordinates from the former alliance were very unhappy with this group of soldiers who came to grab jobs, and they didn't ask Sun Wu to use his power to secretly stumble. Sun Wu fought a cold war. Secretly wiped the cold sweat, and planned to go back or settle it well, and by the way, clean up those few unconscious old subordinates. Don't make a mess later, and bring him with bad luck.

"Great. At present, there is no major movement on the Beiyang side, and your expectation is good, the Beiyang Army will not send troops before the year. ”

Wei Wuji stood up respectfully and said.

This time has been made by little Japanese Han Yeping, and the two major organizations of the Intelligence Department of the National Defense Force are busy on the ground. Sanniang led the internal security forces to surround the Hanyang Arsenal and the Iron and Steel Factory, both inside and out, because they could not spare experience monitoring Beiyang. Wei Wuji took over the work very consciously, and took the people from the second department to collect information on the princes of all parties in the country.

"Everything is normal in Hanyang at the moment, and the Japanese consulate in Hankou has an accident called Kawaguchi, and everything else is normal." ……

"Jiwu, I've seen the big handsome!"

As soon as he came down from the meeting, his face was deferential and flattering, and an old face full of wrinkles smiled directly into a chrysanthemum.

"Brother Jiwu, please sit down and serve tea!"

Suppressing the nausea, Hu Rui greeted and instructed his beautiful secretary.

No matter how bad this guy is, he is also a gentry, and he was also a person who was the director of the Advisory Bureau before the revolution, and he has a lot of shili in Wuchang. A while ago, I was busy arguing with the British and Japanese, and I forgot about this goods, and it really didn't work to see them again.

"Dashuai is polite, Jiwu is disturbed, please Dashuai Haihan."

Looking at Ye Fenghe's departing back, Tang Hualong's eyes were extremely complicated.

For the old man of the Ye family who sold his daughter for glory, he sent his little daughter to the door with a shy face, in exchange for the person in charge of disaster relief. Tang Hualong is disdainful, but secretly there is no less envy, jealousy and hatred!

He doesn't have a chance to sell it if he wants to!

To say that although the Ye family was an outsider who moved into Wuchang after the Xinhai year, they still had considerable fame and assets in the three towns of Wuchang. The Ye family has a total of three daughters and one son, and when the Eight-Nation Coalition Army entered Beijing in the early years of Xinhai, two daughters were lost in the rebellion. The remaining son and daughter are very favored by Old Man Ye, and they are really afraid of flowers in their mouths, and they are afraid of falling in their hands.

As the youngest daughter of the Ye family, Ye Fenghe is a famous beauty in the three towns of Wuchang! When Zhang Zhidong was appointed as the governor of Lianghu, he vigorously established industries and promoted Western learning, and the Wuchang people's customs, which were the seat of the governor's palace, were opened. For such a Western-educated, beautiful girl who is beautiful and beautiful, she is trying her best to pursue it. At the beginning, Zhang Biao, the commander of the eighth town, said openly and secretly that he hoped to bring the Ye family, who went forward, into the house as an aunt's wife, but the Ye family was stunned and refused to agree. Several times, it was pushed with excuses such as "still young" and "can't climb high", which made the account table very dissatisfied. If it weren't for the fact that the Wuchang Revolutionary Party was ready to move, and the Ye family had a certain amount of shili and as the king in the local area, it would have been used a long time ago!

This twenty-eight-year-old little lady doesn't know how many wealthy young masters in Wuchang don't want to eat.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the Qing Dynasty was about to collapse, and Zhang Biao also ran away with the remnants. After the National Defense Army settled in the three towns of Wuchang, this old immortal hurriedly sent his "young" little daughter over, and this time he didn't say any nonsense about "can't climb high", so he almost sent his daughter directly to bed!

Tang Hualong was so envious that he almost vomited blood, the two daughters of the Ye family were all admitted to the house as wives, and the eldest daughter was still born and died with Hu Dashuai!

In the future, after having a son and a half daughter, his status will be raised. The eldest daughter of the Ye family was exiled in her early years and had no relationship with the Ye family, but isn't there a small one! The girl sticks to her mother's house, that's a natural thing! Tied to this nightmare with a potential stock, is the Haichou Ye family underdeveloped?!

Where can Tang Hualong still sit still, he is determined to win the position of governor of Hubei Province. It's just that it's no fun to send a woman, although his daughters are not allowed to be others, but their posture and temperament are very ordinary. Even if you spend a lot of money to buy it, you can't buy such a beauty!

It's no fun to send a woman, for the position of the governor, Tang Hualong gritted his teeth and prepared to smash it with money!

"Brother Jiwu, forgive me, Consul Douglas of the U.S. Consulate has made an appointment, let's make a long story short."

As soon as the haode tea was served, without waiting for Tang Hualong to explain his intentions, Hu Rui preemptively spoke.

"How dare you, how dare Jiwu delay the military affairs of the marshal. It's just that this Citigroup country was raised late, and its international reputation is far less than that of the old England. The consul of Citigroup came to the door, and Duan didn't know what was going on? Jiwu is rough to negotiate matters, not talented, willing to be driven by the marshal! ”

Tang Hualong was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but change color. I couldn't help but turn over the river and the sea for a while, knocked over the words that I was going to haode, gritted my teeth and went straight to the road.

"Hey, Brother Jiwu is serious, it's not a big deal! How dare you work hard Brother Wu, this foreigner, pay the most attention to a good word! The coalition government governs the three provinces, and the Wehrmacht has seven integrated divisions, three second-class divisions, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, all of which are the latest German armaments. The three provinces are located in the Yangtze River basin, and the British have always controlled the business in this area since the end of the Qing Dynasty. Haven't Americans been advocating an open door and equal opportunities, watching Germany give us loans and purchases, their eyes are red, and they run to the door to sell it! ”

After taking a sip of tea and smacking his lips, Hu Rui said lightly.

For a moment, Tang Hualong had the feeling of being struck by lightning, and he was petrified in an instant, and his stiff body was messy in the wind...... (To be continued......)
