Chapter 128: The Arms Have Arrived
(The subscription is miserable, there are not two hundred until now, and almost a hundred have been collected after being put on the shelves, and the book friends who are still reading the book try to subscribe to it, the results are too miserable, and I really don't know if I should continue.) In addition, Xie Lu Xie Adjutantious, 55240155, Chubby My Day Monthly Pass. )
"My lord! This is Chen's assistant's home. Ding Cheng introduced to Qin Yu.
"Well, go in and have a look." Qin Yu nodded, someone had already informed him of Qin Yu's arrival.
"I didn't know if the adults came, but I didn't welcome you..." Chen Tao, who was medium-sized and had a small mustache, hurriedly greeted him.
"Forget it, you are a military assistant, and you are also an old subordinate who followed me all the way, and I know that I don't like these polite and false courtesies." Qin Yu waved his hand, walked into Chen Tao's courtyard, and saw several people in the house eating. In addition to Chen Tao, there are several children and five or six women.
"These are your homes?" Qin Yu looked at Chen Tao.
"Exactly."
"It looks like you'll be a full house of children and grandchildren in the future." Qin Yu smiled.
"What are you doing? This is Lord Qin, I haven't seen the adults yet, and I will serve tea to the adults. Chen Tao was a little embarrassed at first, and then glared at the woman dining in the house.
"No need, I'm here to talk to you about business, I happened to pass by you just now, so I'll come in and have a look." Qin Yu said.
"What do you command?" Chen Tao invited Qin Yu to the study.
"I intend to set up a new agency dedicated to spying on enemy intelligence. I've been thinking about this for a long time, but I haven't had a suitable candidate, and I was going to see it later, but the Japanese came to me today, and they know the details of me. When I said it in front of me, I was a little frightened, like a person without clothes, and it didn't feel good. I, Qin Yu, have never been as uncomfortable as I am today since my debut, and I can't be controlled by the Japanese. Qin Yu had a calm face. Thinking of the presumptuousness of Takayama Gongtong in front of him today, there was a fire in his heart.
"What do you need to do with your humble duties?" When it comes to business, Chen Tao seems to be much calmer.
"Aren't the Japanese strong? I want you to set up a special intelligence agency to be responsible for counter-espionage against Japan, Tsarist Russia. The details of the infiltration of Japan and Tsarist Russia into the northeast were all pulled out one by one. And then there are the black sheep who have been bought. The murderous aura in Qin Yu's eyes was undisguised.
"The meaning of the lord is a little more clear, that is, to clear the details of Japan and Russia in the Northeast, but Japan and Russia have been developing in the Northeast for so many years, not to mention the power of the open, the influence of the secret has almost reached the point of pervasiveness. If it is really cleared, I am afraid that it will not be able to solve the problem by getting rid of one or two people, and the disputes caused are likely to rise directly to the level of national diplomacy. Before the First Sino-Japanese War, Japan sent a large number of fine works into the Northeast, and at this time it has been more than ten years since the First Sino-Japanese War, and the foundation of the Japanese can be imagined. Once the decision was made to purge the Japanese of the finesse. With the Japanese temperament, it is naturally impossible to give up. Once the contradiction reaches the point where it cannot be reconciled. The Japanese did not have many options, either to get rid of Qin Yu or to remove Qin Yu from his post directly through Beijing. Or directly send troops, no matter which one it is, the consequences are not something that ordinary people can bear.
"You don't have to think much about these things, I just ask you. If you are asked to do something, can you do it well, if you can't do it, I will find someone else. Qin Yu said directly, you must be careful as a spy as a spy. Pay attention to the details, Chen Tao's reputation in the army Qin Yu has also heard of some, no matter how big or small the military affairs are, they are all done properly, and there are few mistakes, because the requirements are relatively strict, so that once many soldiers hear that they are assigned to Chen Tao's hands, they will beat the drum in their hearts and shout misfortune.
"Your Excellency has an order, how dare you disobey the lowly position, as long as the adult transfers enough people to the lowly position, the lowly position has the confidence to suppress the arrogance of the Japanese." At this time, he was a regiment-level military affairs assistant, and his status in the army was also quite high, according to his qualifications at this time, he would also have a great future in the future, but Qin Yu set up another organization, although it is still a blank now, but it has great potential for development in the future.
"Well, you are called the Military Intelligence Department here, and I will help you promote your rank to colonel after a while, and this year's activity funds are temporarily arranged at 300,000 yuan." Qin Yu nodded.
"Thank you for your promotion, rest assured, once you have a humble position, you will not let the Japanese be too presumptuous in Mukden." Hearing Qin Yu say that he would take out 300,000 yuan to do this, Chen Tao's heart was shocked, it seems that Qin Yu no longer attaches great importance to Japanese spies.
was threatened by Gao Shan Gongtong openly and secretly, Qin Yu's attention to intelligence was raised to an unprecedented height, no wonder Zhang Zuolin would die at the hands of the Japanese in history, no wonder Ishihara Waner expected that even if only a small number of Kwantung Army was dispatched, Zhang Shaoshuai did not dare to resist, these seem to be some luck behind them, but in fact there is its inevitability, these seemingly risky actions of a small number of Japanese soldiers are actually based on the high accuracy of intelligence.
From the time crossing, Qin Yu went all the way too smoothly, and he made a huge scene from scratch, and he inevitably felt a little complacent in his heart, so that he ignored many important things. With the frequent appearance of the Japanese, Qin Yu woke up in horror, how pale and powerless his personal efforts seemed in front of a country.
"My lord, Chinokov and Novlavich are here."
"Really? After waiting for so long, I finally got my stuff here. "Qin Yu's mind that was a little depressed by Gao Shan Gongtong before suddenly became excited." Let's go, let's see. ”
"Drive, drive!" A group of soldiers wielded their whips to drive the horses pulling the wagons.
The long convoy was followed by another large group of soldiers, and the wagons were neatly arranged with long wooden boxes. Under the escort of the soldiers, he slowly entered from the north gate of Fengtian City.
"I've seen my lord." Ma Zhanshan, who was in charge of this escort, saw Qin Yu, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and knelt on one knee to salute. "These things have been shipped in exactly what they want."
"Get up, the Qing Dynasty is over, we are now the Republic of China, we can't kneel." Qin Yu smiled. Seeing this large amount of munitions, Qin Yu was in a good mood.
"Lord Qin, I didn't expect to meet again so soon." Chinokov and Novlavich stepped forward to greet each other.
"Yes, with the increase of cooperation in the future, there will be more and more opportunities for us to meet." Qin Yu said, "How many things have been transported this time?" ”
Previously, in order to ensure that this arms deal did not attract too many people's attention. In this era, there is no cipher code, Qin Yu didn't let the telegram be sent over there, anyway, it was only a matter of time before he received something, but he didn't expect Japanese spies to be pervasive, Qin Yu's thoughts were in vain.
"My lord, the East and West Humble Officials have sent people to count them, and there are more than 7,300 water beads and 2 million rifle rounds. 23 76MM MOUNTAIN GUNS, 6,000 SHELLS. 15 heavy machine guns. 200,000 rounds of machine gun ammunition. Seeing Qin Yu dismount, Ma Zhanshan got up and whispered to Qin Yu.
"Well, except for a little less artillery, there is not much difference in ammunition." Qin Yu nodded, it seems that Ni Jiting's corrupt element still has some influence, this is better, the more influential Ni Jiting is, the more room there is for cooperation in the future. There are more and more things that can be traded at low prices, and these arms can arrive so quickly. Qin Yu estimated that he was not going through any formal channels, but directly from a certain arsenal in the Far East, and then put some mouths into it, which was similar to the last time he traded grain, and the cost was only to bribe some officers. In order to prepare for the Japanese threat to the Far East, especially after the defeat of Japan and Russia. The Tsar had accumulated a large amount of military supplies in the Far East, and at this time the First World War had not yet begun, which was really nothing to the arsenal of Tsarist Russia in the Far East.
Qin Yu walked to the back of the line and looked at the cannon that glowed with metallic luster. The black and faint muzzle, unusually breathtaking, the artillery has a strange and moving charm on the battlefield of this era of cannonism. RUSSIA'S 76MM CANNON IS STILL VERY COST-EFFECTIVE, THE RANGE IS LONG ENOUGH, IN THE RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR, THE JAPANESE ARTILLERY IS OFTEN HIT BY THE TWO SHELLS SUDDENLY FIRED BY THE RUSSIAN SIDE, THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE RUSSIAN ARTILLERY HAS A CERTAIN ADVANTAGE IN THE RANGE.
IN ADDITION, IN THE BATTLE BETWEEN THE TWO ARMIES, TSARIST RUSSIA CAPTURED JAPANESE 75MM SHELLS, WHICH COULD BE FIRED DIRECTLY WITH 76MM GUNS. However, the Japanese 75MM mountain artillery could not fire the shells captured from Tsarist Russia, and Tsarist Russia had to take advantage of this point.
It's just that these cannons are not small, but it seems that the manufacturing process is a little bad, and it looks a little rougher than the dozen or so German guns in the Second Mixed Association. The artillery of the Second Mixed Association was eliminated from the hands of the Six Towns of Beiyang, and it was at least a few years older than the artillery of Tsarist Russia.
Of course, Qin Yu does not have the conditions to pick and choose at the moment, with these 23 mountain guns, the combat power of Qin Yu's troops will definitely go to another level, but the training of gunners is more troublesome.
"By the way, when will the other things arrive?" Qin Yu asked, compared to these things, Qin Yu values the two bullet production lines more, only based on self-production, in the future, in the Northeast can it compete with Japan. The two bullet production lines don't seem to have much effect, but they can solve the problem of the source of bullets for Qin Yu, no matter who they buy from, they will be controlled by others, and after producing them themselves, Qin Yu can rest assured that the soldiers can carry out enough live-fire training, and good marksmanship is fed with bullets. Compared with the old Japanese permanent divisions, Qin Yu's previous subordinates and the Second Mixed Association had a much worse shooting accuracy. If there is a real fight, this gap will be directly manifested in the combat strength and casualties of both sides.
"Those machines have been purchased in the United States, and it should be no problem to transport them to the provincial capital of Fengtian within two months." Novlavich said.
"Within two months? Okay, that batch of machines doesn't need to be transported to Fengtian City, and they will be left in Taonan directly. Qin Yu thought for a while and said, Fengtian City is not deeply rooted, but in Taonan, it is not easy for Japan to play tricks, and it is more conducive to the blockade of news over there.
