Chapter 174 How to Make a Life
When it comes to playing methods, who can play with me, Yan Xishan? When Zhang Xuewu was killed by mouth, Yan Xishan was proud, because the whole process was concocted and planned for him. Although Zhang Xuewu seemed to take advantage of it, his lost reputation and reputation were irreparable in any case.
Zhang Xuewu also expected that Yan Xishan had set a stumbling block and a black hand on himself. The reason why he did not respond was that Zhang Xuewu did not care so much about the so-called reputation at all, and Zhang Xuewu was also ready to cheat Yan Laoxi in the personnel and equipment of the 34th Army.
When Feng Heping arrived in Baotou with 2 million yuan, Zhang Xuewu immediately ordered the release of Yang Aiyuan, the commander of the 34th Army, Xi Yuping, the deputy commander, Li Yuguo, the chief of staff, and three division commanders and a large number of regimental commanders. More than 2,000 defeated soldiers with old rifles returned to Taiyuan.
Zhang Xuewu didn't believe it. Yan Xishan was actually prepared for a long time, but he didn't expect Zhang Xuewu to play so much? More than 20,000 people have become more than 2,000 obsolete old, weak, sick and disabled? The whole army's weapons and equipment! More than 13,000 rifles, more than 300 light and heavy machine guns, and most importantly, 12 75mm mountain guns imported from Italy were all in Zhang Xuewu's pocket.
Yang Aiyuan's 34th Army is his direct line of Lao Yan! Under the circumstances, the Yanxian faction represented by Xu Yongchang and the Jinnan faction represented by Fu Zuoyi are more prominent, especially the Fu Zuoyi's faction, which has recently been closely connected with Nanjing and has been a little prosperous.
Yan Xishan is very clear that Fu Zuoyi is not Xu Yongchang, who is willing to go to Nanjing. Since the beginning of the 21st year of the Republic of China, under his repeated efforts, Chiang Kai-shek instructed the Nanjing Central Political Conference to appoint him as a member of the National Political Axe Military Committee, and was able to serve as the director of the Taiyuan Appeasement Office, and finally regained the military administration of Jinsui. How many days has it been? Suiyuan is gone. One of Yang Aiyuan's army let Zhang Xuewu strip naked?
Although Yan Xishan made Zhang Xuewu bear the scolding this time, in fact, it was himself who suffered losses. Jin's ticket can only be regarded as two million national dollars in the world for 70 million yuan now. His ten-year Shanxi economic development plan also seems to have stalled, and all the causes are induced by Zhang Xuewu. How can this not prevent Yan Xishan? Hate it to the bone? Since Zhang Xuewu is so good at fighting, why don't you transfer to Qianxiang to suppress bandits? Yan Xishan found that he seemed to have thought of another good idea. The idea was indeed a good idea, but it seemed to be a long-term plan.
However, before that, Yan Xishan still threw cheap things to vent his anger as usual. The friction between the Rehe Legion and the Jin army had just come to an end. Although Zhang Xuewu was scolded a lot, it was not obvious from the surface that he was taking advantage of him.
For Feng Heping's placement, Zhang Xuewu fulfilled his previous promise. He understood the truth that people were untrustful, and Zhang Xuewu really lacked government personnel in local management. Suiyuan and Chahar had been rotten for a long time, and Rehe was even more happy. They had long run away. After winning the battle, these abandoned their positions at that time. The local officials returned to their respective places, hoping to continue to scrape the ground.
Of course, these officials have been out of the door, otherwise the Supervisory and the Executive Yuan can close their eyes and pretend not to know? Chahar, Rehe and Suiyuan are all first-class poor and remote areas, but they all have sideline tobacco cultivation. In addition, Chahar's Chahan Aobao and Suiyuan's gold and silver mines. Although the local people can't eat their stomachs and clothes, there are very few poor officials.
However, Zhang Xuewu will naturally not let this group of dirty ghosts get along well, and Zhang Xuewu wants to build Chahar, Rehe and Suiyuan into an important barrier that can prevent the North Military Road from entering Shanxi and cut off Jingpu Road, so he can't tolerate the existence of these corrupt officials, but he has just finished Yan Xishan's doing it. The bosses of the Political Council and the Supervisory? It seems that even Zhang Xuewu feels a little crazy.
So, Zhang Xuewu came up with a good idea! The Falcon Brigade and the Blade Brigade, which have been expanded into five squadrons under the jurisdiction of two brigades, are assigned by Zhang Xuewu. Qin Buer and Yao Le take turns to command and make up to "make a living"!
"Do life!" This is Zhang Xuewu's mantra of educating Yao Le and Qin Buer. Zhang Xuewu directly told Yao Le and Qin Buer: "The purpose is very simple. The hard training is to improve the living standard and eat more meat, and supplement some expensive imported equipment and weapons, but the legion department is very difficult now and has no money!"
Qin Fuer and Yao Le, who were originally very happy, also looked at each other? They know that the legion commander's habits must have a follow-up, otherwise they will never easily recruit them to face, because this is likely to be a secret matter.
Zhang Xuewu first complained about the shortage of funds. The cost of the two special paratroopers operation brigades was higher than that of Zhanyang's Suiyuan garrison. You know, after the Suiyuan garrison division received a part of the reorganization of the Jin army, now it is also the establishment of three brigades and six regiments, with 16,000 troops!
The two special paratroo commando brigades, Falcon and Blade, together with support personnel, have no more than 2,500 support personnel. The real combat detachment, has 200 Falcon, and the sharp blade is 187. The rest are reserve personnel and support troops. The five divisions of the Rehe Army are all officially established by the National Government Axe, but only three divisions are paid by the country. The two garrison divisions were paid and stationed by the province, but the two special paratrooper assault brigades were not organized. They spent the money of the whole army, so the two of them were secretly ashamed! Anyone who spends so much will be hated!
If it hadn't been for the surprise attack and retreat of the enemy by the special paratroopers at the end of the Battle of Chengde, they would have been sprayed to death by the foam stars below!
"If you don't have money, you have to find a way to make money! But we need to be more elegant and make a living! Money is no different from bandit's beard. We are all professional soldiers. We can't do these illegal things. Let's take action as a subject of makeup investigation! I have a list here. A total of 346 county magistrates and three Mongolian princes in Chahar, Rehe and Suiyuan need your care. What they collect is the people's fat and the people's ointment. We take it from the corrupt officials and use it for the people! This is a righteous act. I will inform the local garrison of your actions. If necessary, they will cooperate and go back to explain to the team members that this is a military operation! First, it was carried out in Rehe, Chahar and Suiyuan. After the troops were trained and matured, they entered the three eastern provinces and North Korea to punish those great Han annihalation and merchants!" Zhang Xuewu said righteously, and Qin Buji and Yao Le's eyes were boiling.
But when the two of them return, they will feel that it's not that smell. Isn't this a kidnapping, extortion and robbery? Unexpectedly, such a thing became a just act after being said by the commander of the army. The most important thing is that the training funds of the two brigades are indeed very tight now, and many equipment and weapons continue to be added.
Solved the funding problem of the two special paratrooes of Falcon and Blade. Zhang Xuewu can be said to have easily returned to Rehe Chengde. Chengde, which was destroyed by the war, is being rebuilt in full swing. However, the reconstruction of the city gives people the feeling that it is more appropriate to build a large military fortress or base. Dang, the many street forts and the permanent fortifications on the outer line are made of bluestone and reinforced concrete.
Zhang Xuewu can be said to be at a loss in the face of the three provinces that are waiting to be rejuvenated, especially the hot August, which made him feel uncertain. The Nanjing delegation to Germany led by Song Ziwen originally left him a place, but I don't know how Zhang Xuewu angered the Japanese side. It is said that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was not It is unreasonable to go to the German embassy to submit a diplomatic note. If Germany allows Zhang Xuewu to enter the country as a member of the delegation, it would have considered lowering the level of diplomatic relations with Germany to the ambassadorial level.
Moreover, Zhang Xuewu created a small-scale friction not long ago, and the consequences almost ignited the Central Plains War again. Although everyone who knew the truth knew that Yan Xishan and Zhang Xuewu would not play against each other with real knives and guns, they had no choice but to contribute to the flames, especially those who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic. The image of the anti-Japanese hero established by Zhang Xuewu was also basically destroyed, and Yan Xishan also deducted three points from himself, killing 3,000 enemies and losing 800.
Zhang Xuewu himself is definitely unable to go to Germany, which is a forelimin. Although General George Fotzell of the German [***] Advisory Group has done his best, the door for Zhang Xuewu to Germany is still closed, and even the status of the dead is not allowed to enter the country.
In desperation, Zhang Xuewu had to send Hao Wenbin and Li Songtao to Nanjing to follow the delegation to visit Germany. Due to the unexpected victory of the Battle of Rehe, it can be said that many subsequent historical events have undergone major changes. Zhang Xuewu found that the variable surname of history was actually two-way random, and I also changed my enemy, and I'm not the only one who is fierce, and I'm even more like this.
However, there seems to be no change in history, that is, Chairman Jiang's efforts to advance and suppress him failed again without exception. In the face of the in-depth strategy of the Central Army, the large and small warlord factions in various places were a little panicked.
Zhang Xuewu remembers that in actual history, Song Ziwen did not lead a group again after his visit to Germany in 1931. This time, because of the fruitless negotiation in Shanghai, Song Ziwen had to face the indignation of some domestic public opinion, so he had to go abroad to avoid it temporarily.
German Chancellor Hitler, who has recently come to power, also expressed enough enthusiasm for China. In the face of the economic depression and recession in Europe, Hitler hoped that a large amount of arms purchases could stimulate Germany's heavy industry.
So on August 20, 1933, the German political axe officially submitted an invitation to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Nanjing through the minister in Nanjing, inviting the Chinese political axe to go to Germany to negotiate various cooperation and development and investment matters.
