Chapter 54 New Barracks

In the process of Duan Qirui, Wang Yingkai and Feng Guozhang competing for control of the right town of the Beiyang Standing Army, Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang and Wang Yingkai are the bigwigs standing behind them. Although they will also take action in person, they are only limited to the strategic level, such as the appointment of middle and senior officers in the right town.

For Zhao Dongyun and Chen Guangyuan, they are the specific commanders in this war, commanding the army on the front line to compete with each other.

However, for Gu Baoyu, Liu Fu, Shi Congbin and others, it is just a chess piece in this battle, and it is a chess piece with no autonomy.

Liu Fu, who came out of the fifth commander, looked bitter, because Chen Guangyuan just told him that the specific affairs of the reorganization of Su Yi's own army would be carried out by him, and the young soldiers after the reorganization of Su Yi's own army would also be allocated to his first battalion.

The consolidation of Suyi's own army was a trouble from beginning to end. Not long ago, the officers in Suyi's own army still wanted to wrap up soldiers and make trouble. Although the military chaos had been suppressed by Zhao Dongyun before it began, and the military officers involved in it were arrested, but the rest Those soldiers are not so easy to deal with.

Even after the reorganization of Suyi's own army, many young men selected will join his first battalion, and it will definitely not be easy to train these old grated soldiers.

Thinking of this, how can Liu Fu's face get better!

This was originally a matter that was given to the third battalions of the fifth standard, but now all of them have been pushed down, which has to make Liu Fu sigh for his bad luck.

However, he thought he was unlucky, but he did not complain: This is the war between Zhao Dongyun and Chen Guangyuan. How can he involve me?

Because he knows that this war is not only the war between Zhao Dongyun and Chen Guangyuan, but also involved himself, Gu Lanyu, Lin Yongquan and others. Who made him a member of Duan Qirui's faction and who let him get the position of the first battalion management of the fifth bid by relying on Duan Qirui's push behind his back.

Since he defected to Duan Qirui and obtained the position by Duan Qirui's recommendation, he must bear the blow from the enemy of his faction.

However, there must be a degree of this bearing, and today's thing is obviously beyond his ability to withstand Liu Fu.

With a bitter face, he soon saw Zhao Dongyun. When he told the matter from beginning to end, he also made Zhao Dongyun a little surprised.

Chen Guangyuan had a little trick, which suddenly shirked his responsibility and pushed it back to Liu Fu of his faction.

At this moment, Zhao Dongyun doubted whether Duan Qirui's decision to send Liu Fufu to the fifth target was right or wrong.

At the beginning, when many factions competed for many leadership and management positions in the Third Association, Duan Qirui and Zhao Dongyun promoted Gu Lanyu, Lin Pingxiong and Liu Fufu to compete for management positions. When competing for the head of that battalion, considering that Zhao Dongyun was also the sixth standard general leadership, Zhao Dongyun was to operate the sixth standard. For his own territory, Gu Lanyu and Lin Pingxiong were left behind in the sixth target. However, on the other hand, in order to contain Chen Guangyuan, Duan Qirui sent Liu Fufu to the first battalion of the fifth standard.

Speaking of which, Liu Fu's nature is similar to Chen Guangyuan's. Chen Guangyuan came to contain Zhao Dongyun, while Liu Fu was sent to contain Chen Guangyuan.

What Zhao Dongyun didn't expect was that Liu Fu had not played a role in holding Chen Guangyuan, so Chen Guangyuan hit him with explosives and kicked him back to Zhao Dongyun's feet, so it's not good to save Zhao Dongyun or not to save him.

With the ability of Liu Fu and his subordinates alone, it is almost impossible to reorganize the Suyi army. In addition, if the Qingzhuang after the reorganization of Su Yi's own army is stuffed to him, the first battalion of Liu Fufu may be very tragic.

In this case, if Zhao Dongyun helps Liu Fu, he is actually helping Chen Guangyuan, because the reorganization of Suyi's own army is not only a matter for Liu Fufu, but also Chen Guangyuan's business.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Dongyun said to Liu Fu, "The reorganization of Su Yi's own army still needs to be completed. It's not easy to explain. In this way, I asked Ren Zhengen to go over and be your helper. He is a student of Lao Wu and has also served in the Huai Army. He still has a way to deal with those Huai army ruffians!"

Ren Zhengen was newly defected to Zhao Dongyun. He served in the Huai Army in his early years, and later served in the vanguard of the Shandong Wuwei Right Army. The vanguard of the Wuwei Right Army was the new army from the old army of Shandong. It can be said that Ren Zhengen still has some experience in the reorganization of the old army.

Zhao Dongyun then said, "As for the youth of Suyi's own army after the reorganization, don't be busy adding to your first battalion. I have other arrangements!"

It's nothing to help Liu Fu reorganize Suyi's own army. Although this one failed to trap Chen Guangyuan, there will be many similar opportunities in the future, which is not bad.

And let Liu Fu leave Suyi's own army Qingzhuang first. This is not to say that he wants to help Liu Fufu, but that Zhao Dongyun planned to disperse these Qingzhuang into the fifth standard three battalions from the beginning. Although there is some disgusting Chen Guangyuan's idea here, he also wants to scatter these old army Qingzhuang to help them quickly. Digest quickly.

However, Chen Guangyuan went against his will to fall all these young men into the first battalion of the fifth standard, which Zhao Dongyun could not stand whether publicly or privately.

It seems that we have to find an opportunity to knock on Chen Guangyuan and let him know that it is okay to do small actions, but it must not affect the overall editing progress of the Third Association, otherwise the board will be ruthlessly knocked down.

After sending Liu Fufu away, Zhao Dongyun called Lin Yongquan again to talk about this.

Lin Yongquan said, "We also said that we should recruit and train uniformly. Now it's not good for us to directly order the young men of the old army to be equally divided among the three battalions of the fifth bid, otherwise I'm afraid there will be criticism."

"Your Excellency, didn't you say that you want to establish a new soldier training camp? I think you can use these young men of Suyi's own army as the first batch of recruits to fill the new barracks, and then allocate them to the fifth standard third battalion after a month of initial training, so that the people below will have nothing to say!"

Zhao Dongyun nodded after hearing this: "This is a way, just do as you say!" If you just want to do this, the new barracks will also be established in advance. You have to do it quickly!"

Lin Yongquan said, "The barracks of the recruit training camp used the barracks of our new machine gun camp, and we are also familiar with the new recruit training. Don't worry, it won't delay!"

"You will be fully responsible for this new barracks. I will transfer the missing personnel one by one and try to build the new barracks as soon as possible!" Zhao Dongyun said so.

He is still relatively relieved about Lin Yongquan's military training ability. Just as Yuan Shikai trusts Zhao Dongyun's military training ability, Zhao Dongyun also trusts Lin Yongquan's military training ability.

Since last year, Lin Yongquan has been training the machine gun battalion. From one team at the beginning, to one battalion, and then to three battalions, it can be said that Lin Yongquan is responsible for most of the training of the three machine gun battalions newly built by the Beiyang Army.

If he hadn't trusted Lin Yongquan's military training ability, Zhao Dongyun would not have appointed him as the staff officer of the Third Association. This position may be a combat staff officer with no real power elsewhere, but Lin Yongquan is different. In the Third Association, he is a staff officer, but he is still a member of the Third Association. The general office of the new barracks is responsible for the recruitment and training of the Third Association.

The new barracks is not a formal organization or combat force under the Third Association. There are no three words in the official establishment of the Third Association. However, the Third Association was created. At the same time, although the Third Association is scheduled to be assigned to the right town of the Beiyang Standing Army, in fact, there are only people's words in the right town of the Beiyang Standing Army. It has not been officially established yet.

Therefore, strictly speaking, the current Third Association is not under the jurisdiction of the Beiyang Standing Army, but directly under the jurisdiction of the Beiyang Military Administration.

So the temporary third association is actually an independent unit. Independent units have the advantages of independent units, that is, no one cares about it. In this third association, Zhao Dongyun can do whatever he likes, and others can't control it.

But there are also disadvantages. For example, there are no various departments and institutions to solve various problems in the process of military training. Zhao Dongyun has to deal with the staff, supervision, law enforcement, grain and salary, ordnance, military medicine and other affairs of the Third Association by himself. What's more annoying is that according to the formal establishment of the Third Association, these institutions cannot be established, so Zhao Dongyun can only set up similar institutions in private and then use officers at all levels to serve concurrently.

For example, Zhao Dongping's official position is the sixth standard staff officer, but he is also responsible for ordnance affairs within the Third Association, and also has a famous and unspeakable name, that is, the General Office of the Ordnance Section of the Third Association.

For example, Lin Yongquan, whose official position is the staff officer of the Third Association, but within the Third Association, he also serves as the General Office of the New Barracks and the General Office of the Supervision Section.

However, these positions such as the General Office of the Ordnance Section, the General Office of the New Barracks and the General Office of the Supervision Section have not been officially recognized, basically only Zhao Dongyun's verbal promise.

These oral positions are not officially recognized, and those private institutions naturally have no official purpose, such as this new barracks.

In order to form a unified recruitment and training within the Third Association, Zhao Dongyun sent his own direct officers to recruit soldiers, and after recruiting soldiers, he was also preparing for unified training. After passing the training of new recruits, Zhao Dongyun sent them to various battalions.

In order to train new recruits, Zhao Dongyun also set up a new barracks, with Lin Yongquan as the general office, and then transferred many senior officers to co-operate.

The training in the new barracks is actually very simple. Generally speaking, it is to teach the formation, distinguish the left and right, simple shooting, fighting, etc., and the most important thing during the new barracks is to supplement the new recruits and enhance their physical fitness.

Limited by the general lack of nutrition in this era, even if the physical quality of new recruits is emphasized, these recruits who can't eat a few pieces of meat all year round. Even if they look tall, their actual physical fitness is slightly better. The requirements of the new soldiers are still relatively large.

So the first thing these recruits do is to eat more to meet their physical requirements. When the soldiers have good physical fitness, it is time to carry out subsequent high-intensity training!

If you carry out high-intensity tactical training as soon as soldiers are recruited, half of those soldiers will have to die in a few days!

While Zhao Dongyun was busy editing and practicing the Third Association, Fuyuan Machinery Factory, which placed many high-level hopes in Beiyang, also began to accept machinery and equipment from Germany and began to carry out preliminary trial production.
