Ouyang Yun's words were quite righteous and awe-inspiring, but was this what he said in his heart?

"Ghost Knows!" This is what Guo Biao said on the way back to the barracks to discuss this matter with Shan Renxiong. And there is another person who holds the same view, that is Ouyang Yun's brother Chu Tiange. Chu Tiange talked about this when he was chatting with Shui Hongsleeve, and his statement was: "The eldest brother is the best at settling accounts, and he is very resentful. Lao Jiang hurt him so badly last time, I don't believe he can really forget about it. Whether it's from a retaliatory or economic point of view, I'm sure he will definitely take Fujian for himself. ”

Guo Biao and Chu Tiange knew Ouyang Yun quite well, and their statements were definitely not untargeted. Just after the banquet ended that day, accompanied by the two beauties Pan Meiren and Bai Tassel, Ouyang Yun sat in the study, with an incandescent lamp, and began to draft a new preparation plan.

Bai Tassel stood aside, and when she saw that one of them was to take turns pulling the troops out of the gang to "suppress the bandits", and according to what she said, there were only so-called "bandits" in the border areas close to Fujian in Guangdong, and she couldn't help but laugh dumbly, saying: "The suppression of bandits is fake, and the reaction of the Central Army in Fujian is real, right?" However, if we don't talk to Li Zongren and them, we will eat Fujian directly, I'm afraid it will affect our future development. ”

The importance of Gui Jun's ally was not important when the old nest of the Xuebing Army was still in Renqiu. But after entering Guangdong, it will be different, without the Gui army as an ally, the student army is very likely to fall into a three-sided encirclement.

Seeing that Bai Tassel saw his intentions, Ouyang Yun stopped his pen and took a sip of tea, and then said with a smile: "To be honest, it turns out that I just have ideas about Fujian, but today I was a little bit by Li Zongren, but I think that the sooner this matter is resolved, the better." Meiren, tomorrow morning, after I send Guijun and them away, you can help me call Mu Jiandie and Chang Gen over. ”

Pan Meiren originally didn't know anything about military politics, but after more than a year of edification, now he has a glimpse of the trick, and said with a smile: "Isn't there a person in Fujian, why do you want to send a general to go out in person?" ”

Ouyang Yun nodded: "There is no way, the army stationed in Fujian is the original Nineteenth Route Army, but now the generals have been replaced by Lao Jiang's cronies, and they already belong to the veritable Central Army." A little more informative information will be good for our future operations. Before May, Fujian must get it done, otherwise there will be no time and energy. I don't expect it to provide much wealth, soldiers, or anything after the recovery of Fujian, but the key is that in future wars, it can be used as a buffer zone to relieve direct pressure on Guangdong and increase our strategic depth. ”

White Tassel: "By the way, didn't you say you were going to the United States?" If it wants to deal with the affairs of Fujian, then the United States will not be able to go. ”

"The United States is definitely going, about our money bags. On the Fujian side, I am ready to hand over the responsibility of Li Tieshu and Xiang Hanping. By the way, why can't the Bonn father and son come over? Call again to urge, be polite, and say that it is really inconvenient for me to go out, and ask them to be considerate. ”

The Bonn father and son are also old men in the army, and they were so humiliated by Zhang Da today, not to mention themselves, even Guo Biao and others were angry with them. If it weren't for Ouyang Yunyou's emphasis that they would not be allowed to have a head-on conflict with the former Cantonese officers, thinking that with Guo Biao's temper, they would have already stood up for the Bonn father and son.

Half an hour later, as the horn sounded outside, and then Liu Kui's voice deliberately raised the volume: "President Bonn, you are here, the commander is waiting for you, please come in!" Ouyang Yun hurriedly got up, and while asking Pan Meiren to make tea, he greeted Lu Yu. When they arrived at the hall, the Bonn father and son had already entered the courtyard, and with them were Ouyang Stern and George.

As the former consul general of the U.S. Consulate in Renqiu, George's work was closely related to the Cadet Army, so when the Cadet Army entered Guangdong, he immediately moved over, and because the United States had a consulate in Guangzhou before, the Consulate in Renqiu also became the Consulate General in Guangzhou. George rose to prominence and became Consul General.

Ouyang Yun and George have a very good personal relationship. First greeted and hugged the Bonn father and son, and then hugged George and smiled: "George, you are here too, it's great." Please come in, I just asked Meiren to make new tea. ”

The guest and host entered Ouyang Yun's study and sat down around a coffee table, Ouyang Yun first sincerely apologized to the Bonn father and son, and did not discipline his subordinates effectively.

The complexion of the father and son Bonn had recovered at this time, and when they heard this, they hurriedly waved their hands and said, "The commander is polite." Commander Zhang does not understand our situation, and it is probably also influenced by the world's prejudice against us Jews, which is why he has such extreme words. Hehe, we won't take it to heart. ”

"Thank you!" Ouyang Yun said solemnly, and when Bai Tassel served the snack, he said, "It's great that you can think like this." To be honest, although you have not been a citizen of our country for a long time, all those who have witnessed your contribution to our collective are deeply aware of it. You may not know Lu Dao, just after the meeting, if I hadn't resolutely stopped it, Guo Biao and Shan Renxiong and Tieshu would have been ready to teach Hazi Zhang Da a good lesson! Zhang Da is not deliberately targeting you, he is the one who has a stinky mouth and doesn't like to use his brains to do things......"

Stern didn't speak, and after Ouyang Yun finished speaking, he said: "Commander, the biggest difficulty encountered by the student army when it enters Guangdong is to integrate the original Guangdong army. As the white general said, I think this is actually an opportunity. I don't like to play right and wrong behind my back, but Zhang Da found someone, and he was indeed a thorn in the original Yue army. As long as he is settled, I believe that it will be good for the integration of the troops. ”

George did not attend the banquet in the evening, but he had his own unique views on the current problems of the Cadet Army. He continued with Stern's words, thinking that Ouyang Yun should come up with some thunderous means, otherwise blindly adopting the policy of Huairou would make some people with ghosts more emboldened, and it would be even more difficult to clean up at that time.

George's suggestion has a distinctly American character, that is, carrots and sticks, both pronged.

However, China's national conditions cannot be clearly understood by an American. If the matter is really so simple, I believe that Ouyang Yun doesn't need to invite Bonn and his son over, apologize in person, and directly repair Zhang Da, won't it be over?!

There were some things that were difficult to tell them, so he had to change the subject and turn to a trip to the United States not long after.

On the surface, he went to the United States at the personal invitation of US President Roosevelt, but in fact it came from Gu Lianyun's strong request.

The U.S. industry has now swelled to a considerable size as pharmaceutical and electronics factories are on the right track. Although Gu Lianyun deserves the name of a strong woman, due to gender reasons, she still encounters many obstacles in some aspects. And she desperately hoped that Ouyang Yun would come over, and it was in the hope that he could help her solve these problems.

Ouyang Yun combined the information provided by Gu Lianyun and Hu Tong to characterize his second trip to the United States (the first trip did not take place) as a "journey to show strength".

The United States, because of its special history, has been the most realistic country on earth since its birth, and everything proceeds from vested interests and speaks according to strength. As a military organization, the strength of the Cadet Army is naturally incomparable with that of a country, and it is a big country that made a windfall by taking advantage of World War I. Fortunately, Ouyang Yun has several key techniques in his hands, which has attracted the attention of the United States and obtained a relatively equal position for dialogue. However, Ouyang Yun was not deceived by the current illusion, he knew that once the Scholar Army lost its foothold in the country, then its industry in the United States would be immediately swallowed up by the Americans, and at that time, everything that he Ouyang had worked so hard to create would only make his country's future enemies stronger - this was naturally not what he wanted to see. He felt that no matter what the Americans were thinking at the moment, it was time for them to see clearly the strength of the Cadet Army, and only in this way could it be possible to dispel the snooping of some Americans.

Roosevelt's invitation was delivered through George. The tool for Ouyang Yun's trip this time will be a passenger plane converted from a heavy bomber just produced by the two sides in the United States.

In order to facilitate the smooth landing and take-off of this large passenger plane, the Great Wall Engineering Company is currently making every effort to renovate the military airport in the southern suburbs of Guangzhou. And what Ouyang Yun is most concerned about is the relevant large-scale equipment for the manufacture of aircraft that came with this passenger plane.

Speaking of which, the R&D Institute of the Soldier Army has been conducting research in this area for a long time, but because there is no ready-made equipment, although it has mastered the manufacturing technology, it cannot produce it at all. In the end, we could only test the production of small fighters and bombers. As for heavy bombers, they can only rely on joint factories in the United States. The equipment shipped this time will be able to solve the molding problem of large fuselage and the one-time casting problem of large engine casing. As long as the manufacturing problems of these two key parts are solved, and the materials and technical workers can keep up, the student army itself will be able to manufacture large aircraft.

George is called Consul General, but he really plays the role of liaison between the two sides. At the moment, he elaborated on the situation of his knowledge, and then mentioned a key question, there is no large-scale iron mine in Guangzhou, so steel resources are scarce. He suggested that Ouyang Yun could discuss the import of steel with the president during this trip to the United States.

Ouyang Yun naturally knows the situation of Guangzhou's properties better than George, a foreigner, and he has already had his own ideas about the lack of steel resources. Speaking of which, this is also one of the reasons why he is particularly watching Fujian. Because as far as he knows, Fujian Qingyuan is the largest producer of tungsten ore in China. Tungsten is an indispensable additive in the production of military steel. As long as Qingyuan is controlled, he believes that steel will have it!
