Chapter 261 Relationship is Good
France has fallen into chaos, and the French can't accept all this. The left-wing republican Emile Lube was forced to step down, with the radical party Clement Fallier as the new president and organize a new cabinet.
This is definitely not good news for China. Clement-Fallier is a very radical European centralist and does not allow the rise of the Asian region at all. He also vows to change the current situation and let France win in Asia.
The Battle of Xialan Mountain actually made the entire French-Russian Ally further realize that the Chinese army does have more strength than one stage in terms of equipment, training and personnel quality, especially the oldest 31 integrated division in the Chinese army.
Within the Allie States, they are also studying and imitating new weapons such as mortars, light machine guns, submachine guns, and grenade launchers, hoping to equip their troops as soon as possible and narrow the equipment gap between the two sides.
Time has become more and more pressing. Under the order of Clement-Falier, the French also began to use chemical weapons of mass destruction on the battlefield. However, during this period, with the support of Britain and Germany, China has basically guaranteed the prevention of chemical weapons and established chemical weapons in Zibo, Shanghai and Peiping. The production line of chemical weapons such as mustard gas and light chlorine gas launched a chemical counterattack against France and Russia.
At this time of the war, everything has fallen into madness, and all international conventions have lost their meaning. At present, almost all the bullets produced from various arsenals in China have fixed cross-shaped warheads missing slots. Once they hit the opponent, it will cause large-scale damage and injury.
Even if not, experienced soldiers will use filers, nail scissors, bayonets and other tools to grind similar grooves, increasing the probability of bullets exploding in the opponent's body.
The domestic rifle bullet production line has been unified, and the 7.62mm Berkeley bullet is fully used. This bullet adopts a new pellet-type mixed smokeless gunpowder, a brass steel bottom pointed bullet, and a built-in lead core.
In terms of the most basic bullet technology and quality, domestic Berkeley bullets are stronger than the Allied rifle bullet standards. Although China is equipped and uses three rifles of different specifications in China, they are all 7.62mm Berkeley bullets.
The bullets of the light machine gun and submachine gun are made of round-headed bullets, and the range is reduced, while the bullets of the Maxim heavy machine gun are kept as 7.62mm Berkeley bullets, which is convenient for logistical replacement.
In contrast, the Allied Forces are in a mess in the supply of equipment.
In a word, China and the Allies under the control of Hu Chuyuan are completely two concepts. The Allies themselves are very clear about this point. At this moment of war, they are no longer as arrogant as before and have no belief in victory.
Of course, the Allied Forces have not completely collapsed at this time, because they do not know the last trump card of the Chinese army, even if they have learned from intelligence work that the Chinese army may be making new adjustments and may have some mechanized troops.
Recently, the intelligence department of Japan has been infiltrating crazily, hoping to find relevant data and prepared information.
The Ally countries are in chaos. In Yanjing, Hu Chuyuan is relatively quieter and quieter. He is re-adjusting his governance strategy and trying to establish a new secret secretariat to unify his work in the general credit room and the general account, and set up a reading in the secretary to belong to him alone. Directly in charge of the confidential bureau.
This morning, he gave priority to asking Miss Qiu Jin to enter his office for an interview.
Soon, the legendary Miss Qiu Jin came in, calm and atmospheric, and the aura was as if it were a special climate, which was awe-inspiring.
As soon as she came in, Hu Chuyuan's eyes lit up.
It's really interesting!
He likes this woman in black men's clothes, which is very attractive and different from the women he is used to.
Looking at her carefully, Hu Chuyuan motioned her to sit opposite him and asked her, "Why do you think of my opportunity to work in the secretariat?"
Miss Qiu Jin looked at Hu Chuyuan calmly with that clear eyes. She was not timid and bold at all. She said, "I respect everything you have done for this country, so I want to work for you, and I believe that I have this ability."
Hu Chuyuan smiled silently and asked, "If I give you a new position, what kind of work do you plan to do in the political axe?"
Miss Qiu Jin resolutely replied, "I want to engage in the work that the Prime Minister's wife is currently doing, devote myself to the great cause of women's education and equal human rights, promote the republic and spirit, and liberate China's female surname."
Hu Chuyuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, I support it. China has 194 million female surnames, and the population is the basis of national development. If these female surnames can make due contributions to the country, we will inevitably become a real world power. However, if they are still like in the past thousands of years, they only take their husband and children at home, and can't engage in any physical work, it is really a waste of national resources. Even if I want to stay at home to teach my husband and children, I also hope that Chinese women can receive appropriate modern education and work to cultivate a new generation of young people. Of course, from the perspective of human rights, like my wife, I firmly believe that men and women should be equal. For example, I support my wife and daughter to have their own career.
After a pause, he said, "Very good. I hope you can learn a lot and make achievements in the Secretariat. I won't say anything else. I hope you can work hard. The opportunity is given to you. You have to seize it!"
Miss Qiu Jin was happy for a while. She really didn't expect that the legendary man who held all the power in China was so strange.
He is different from any man.
No.
Miss Qiu Jin thought to herself that he was better than all the men he had met. He...!!
The conversation can't be very long. There are more than a dozen young people who are also looking forward to being reused by Hu Chuyuan waiting anxiously. Miss Qiu Jin is very decent to leave and prepare for her new job.
When she stood up, Hu Chuyuan said, "After going back, draw up a personal report to explain your strengths and weaknesses, your goals, what you want to do, and your specific plan. Within three days, submit it to me together with other people's reports. I will decide your work in the key secretariat according to your report. For the time being, you will be under Yu Mingzhen's management and follow him to deal with the land planning reform of the large agricultural economy.
Miss Qiu Jin was even more happy and immediately agreed.
The person behind Qiu Jin is Mei Xin, who is a real world friendship. Mei Qian wrote a letter in person, hoping that Hu Chuyuan would arrange a suitable job for his eldest daughter.
This face must be given. If there were no Mei Qizhao in those years, there would be no Hu Chuyuan today.
Besides, Hu Chuyuan almost became Mei Xin's uncle at the beginning, and the person who finally became Mei Xin's uncle was Qu Hongji.
Mei Xin is 21 years old, young and beautiful. She just graduated from Stanford University.
After the merger with the University of Auckland and the original foundation, Stanford University has become the largest undergraduate education base in the United States, retaining the undergraduate education style of Yale University. At the same time, it is the main gathering place for Asian students, especially Chinese students.
Mei Xin graduated from the Stanford School of International Relations and Journalism and studied modern journalism.
Hu Chuyuan talked to her for a long time. By the way, she asked about her parents and the current situation of Stanford University.
Let's talk about it. Hu Chuyuan felt that Mei Xin, a little girl, was very interesting. It happened that Mei Qian was particularly troublesome for Hu Chuyuan to introduce her to a promising boyfriend.
Think about it and think about it, Hu Chuyuan asked with a smile as an elder uncle, "Mei Xin, I heard that your boyfriend has also returned to China together?"
"What?"
Mei Xin was very shy and said nervously, "What's the matter... You must have listened to my father's nonsense. It's Sister Qiu Jin. She always wears men's clothes, which makes my mother think nonsense."
"Ha ha!"
Hu Chuyuan is more and more interesting.
He won't interfere in the free love of young people, but Mei Xin is really good. He wants to introduce him to his eldest son Hu Weizhong, but it doesn't work... That's their business, their fate, but he can still introduce it.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Then think it's your father's nonsense, and uncle just cares about it. Um... Your task is very simple. Like everyone else, submit a personal report. In addition, I would like to prepare. In a few days, I want to arrange for you to report some news on the Northeast battlefield. At that time, I will ask Weizhong to pick you up in the northeast. It seems that you haven't seen each other for more than ten years, right?
Mei Xin said curiously, "No, we met together in the American International Student Self-love Association last year. Has he gone to the battlefield now?"
Hu Chuyuan nodded cautiously and said, "Yes, he strongly demanded that I... To be honest, I am not willing, but I also support him to work for the country. Now he is assigned to the Zhili Corps. The situation of his troops is relatively special. After you go, you have to listen to him about how to report. He knows very well which things and information need to be kept confidential.
Mei Xin was also very excited and serious. She was also very happy. She knew that if she went to Uncle Hu to work, it would be windy and rain.
His father said that Hu Mei's two families had an iron friendship and had a friendship for two lifetimes.
Hu Chuyuan naturally took special care of Mei Xin. In the past, the Hawaiian royal family and Princess Kaorani just sent someone to send a few boxes of Hawaiian coffee beans and dark chocolate, and he took them out and gave them to Mei Xin.
Mei Xin was so happy that she ran out with a large box of dark chocolate and tin cans of coffee beans, which made the other new secretaries waiting outside envious.
This... It's good to have a relationship.
It's hard not to envy.
For these new secretaries, Hu Chuyuan has considered them in terms of ranking.
Girls are preferred. After Niu Shuxian also had an appointment, it was Chen Sanli and Zeng Zongying, who were the oldest among the male secretaries and had the highest reservation positions. The former was carefully selected to replace Sun Zongyuan, and the latter was the next minister of the Ministry of Industry and Technology in Hu Chuyuan's mind.
Li Yuanhong, Huang Zhongying, Liang Qichao, Tang Shouqian, Liang Shiyi, Luo Chengqi and Cai Yuanpei came in in turn, and the last one was Zhang Taiyan's turn.
At this time, Zhang Taiyan has been regarded as a very famous master of simplicity in China. He has studied with Niu Yugeng for many years. He has studied in China and the West. He is very open-minded. He pursues national liberation and cultural liberation movements, and also serves as the editor-in-chief of the Practical Newspaper, which Niu Yugeng is responsible for.
Because of his wide knowledge and good writing, Niu Yugeng recommended him to write for Hu Chuyuan, responsible for helping Hu Chuyuan draft official letters and sort out documents.
There is no one else to wait for later. Hu Chuyuan and Zhang Taiyan talked a lot of things. He really felt that this person was very interesting, but he was a little too enthusiastic. At present, he was not suitable to be a writer. He needed to be around for a period of time to really achieve great things and do great things.
Therefore, Hu Chuyuan temporarily adjusted his ideas and let Liang Qichao and Cai Yuanpei serve as his own writing. Zhang Taiyan followed Li Shengduo to work on economic policy first, broadening his horizons and grinding his surname.
Hu Chuyuan spent the whole morning having basic contact with these new secretaries and internal sengers, so he figured out everyone's general surname, which people still seemed a little impetuous, which people were more stable, who was shrewd, who was thick, and he was generally a little touched.
After asking them to go back to write the report first, in the afternoon, Hu Chuyuan met two new candidates, one was Hu Daqin, and the other was Shang Yunxiang, a disciple of Li Cunyi.
Hu Daqin is the director of the Academic Affairs Office of Huizhou Business School. Among the sons of the old housekeeper Hu Rong, he is the most stable one. In his early years, he was also sent to the United States by Hu Chuyuan to study. He was proficient in business courses and did some small business himself.
Hu Chuyuan transferred him here. In fact, he dealt with private accounts and also supervised some of the housekeeper's work.
Shang Yunxiang has been working in the Secret Service and has received long-term secret training from the State Intelligence Agency. Now he is transferred to the confidential secretariat to be responsible for the work of the confidential bureau. He is read by the State Intelligence Agency and is solely responsible for ensuring the confidentiality of the confidential work of the confidential secretariat.
Considering the upcoming changes in the governing style, Hu Chuyuan has begun to prepare for a rainy day and establish a new confidential secretariat for himself. In his plan, after he retires, these new secretarial officials will be transferred to the chairman's secret office of the Grand Duke Party and continue to work with him.
After a few days, the Secretariat gradually stabilized.
Because Duan Qirui's sudden attack interrupted the Allied coalition's plan to occupy Pyongyang, in the northeast battlefield, the Russians had to launch the last offensive before the arrival of winter. Yang Zongli organized a large-scale Changchun defense war around Changchun and used himself to ambush a large number of militias around Harbin. And the field soldiers are constantly scratching the supply line of the Russians.
The generation gap in weapons is very obvious. At this point, the Russians, the French and the Japanese themselves suffered the same. This wave of large-scale offensive of the Allies invested more than 600,000 Russian troops and nearly 200,000 French Far East Group.
The offensive was a little hasty, and there was a gap in weapons and equipment. In addition, heavy equipment, especially the heavy artillery troops did not keep up. In the Northeast battlefield, especially in Changchun, Yang Zong Li's seven divisions added up to no more than 230,000 people, and the militia force was more than 300,000, but the total number of artillery deployments was It is twice the offensive force of the Allied Countries.
Yang Zongli seized this period of firepower advantage and fought a counterattack, annihilating the left-wing army of nearly 70,000 Russian troops, and then withdrew to Changchun's cautious defense. At the same time, he used a large number of radio networks to command those scattered small troops to carry out sabotage and small-scale disturbances in the rear of the Allied forces.
