Arms Merchant of the Republic of China

Chapter 704: Divergence!

There are no fools here. When they walked into the conference room and did not see the senior generals of the other two armies attending the meeting, they had already guessed the reason.

Obviously, Wu Peifu and Du Haisheng have reached a consensus that they will bear the burden of sending troops to Shandong.

So, when Du Haisheng announced this decision, everyone seemed quite calm, but what made them unable to understand was why it was their first army.

After all, among the Three Route Army, only their troops are established at the latest, have the worst combat ability, and even have the shortest cooperation time. In this way, there will be excessive casualties in the Shandong battlefield.

Looking at Du Haisheng's meaning, there seems to be no room for negotiation.

Instead, Xue Yue and Duan Tianhu looked very happy, and Wu Yinghui looked a little excited.

As soldiers, their duty is to lead troops to fight, defend their territory, and fight in the battlefield. If they only train, train and train again, there is never a big battle, and they can't test the strength of the army in any case.

If you practice, you will know it before you know it.

According to Xue Yue's idea, he pulled it out for victory. Du Haisheng meant that there was another layer. He didn't say anything, and Xue Yue didn't go to break it.

At this time, Wu Peifu also took over and asked, "Chief Commander Xue, there are other people. Do you have any difficulties? If you have any difficulties, bring them up and let's solve them together."

Xue Yue shook his head, and Duan Tianhu, Zhou Wenshan, Wu Yinghui and others also shook their heads, saying that there was no difficulty.

Huang Jinrong, who had never spoken, looked sad. After thinking about it, he still gritted his teeth and said, "There is something unclear about the humble position. I hope the two officers can give an explanation."

"Uh?" When Du Haisheng saw him, he looked very confused, but he sneered in his heart. He finally stood up, but his face was still kind and asked, "What's the problem, just say it."

At the last closed-door consultation meeting, he had seen that Huang Jinrong looked reluctant. Presumably, he had guessed his combat plan at that time.

It's just that I haven't made up my mind to bring up the confusion in my heart, or I haven't found a suitable reason to refuse. Today, I finally stood up and wanted to object.

Huang Jinrong sorted out his emotions and said, "The inferior position is unclear. The Third Route Army has just been established, and the Fifth Army and the Sixth Army are also newly adapted troops. Only the two independent divisions of Tiger and Wolf may have combat experience. If the Third Route Army is given the burden of attacking Shandong, will there be anything wrong? At that time If there are major casualties, I'm afraid it will affect the momentum of the army.

Old fox!

After listening to his words, Du Haisheng and Wu Peifu muttered in their hearts.

What Huang Jinrong said is very euphemistic, but Du Haisheng understands what he means. This old guy still seems to be too conservative and serious. He wants to preserve his strength. He doesn't want to see any damage to his troops on the battlefield in Shandong, what affects morale and so on. It's just an excuse. That's all.

To deal with the old fox, Du Haisheng naturally had his own tricks. He smiled indifferently and said, "According to the meaning of Army Chief Huang, shouldn't there be casualties in the army?"

"Of course not!"

In the face of Du Haisheng's offensive, Huang Jinrong was also neither humble nor arrogant. He had thought that in any case, he could not let his Sixth Army go to the Shandong battlefield. As Du Haisheng expected, he was just afraid that his troops would be seriously damaged and could not maintain the numerical advantage over other troops, and he had guessed. Test, Du Haisheng did this in order to weaken the strength of his Sixth Army.

It is the same as Sun Chuanfang's military power at the beginning. The final purpose is to weaken the number of military power and control the army in their hands.

However, how could Du Haisheng stop like this? Seeing that Huang Jinrong looked like an ancient well, he then said, "Since it's not, why is the army casualties that Army commander Huang is worried about?"

"This..."

In the face of Du Haisheng's aggressiveness, Huang Jinrong suddenly concluded and thought for a moment, and then replied, "The humble position just thinks that it is inappropriate to let the third army, which has just been established and has not run in, take on the important task of this attack on Shandong. It is true that when soldiers fight, casualties are inevitable, but this kind of injury should also be taken. The death is reduced to a minimum. According to the humble position, it is better to let the First Route Army and the Second Route Army go. After all, these two armies have rich battlefield experience. Wouldn't it be better to return in triumph against the battle of Shandong?

Du Haisheng smiled coldly and then asked, "Since Chief Huang also said that the first army and the second army are experienced in the battlefield, and the casualties will be less than that of the third army, then I will ask Army commander Xue. After all, he has also led troops to war."

With that, Du Haisheng locked his eyes on Xue Yue and asked, "Xue, please analyze why the so-called First Army and Second Army are less casualties than the Third Army."

How smart Xue Yue is. How can he not understand Du Haisheng's meaning? He smiled indifferently and replied solemnly, "Actually, this problem is very simple. Whether it is the first army of General Du, the second army of General Sun, or the third army, the fourth army, the soldiers of these four armies have experienced countless wars. What's worse, they just crawled out of the dead. It is precisely because they have fought too many battles that they know how to better protect themselves on the battlefield and how to attack to minimize casualties. As a new army, the Third Army has never participated in the battle since its establishment, so the contrast is obvious. "

"Uh!"

Du Haisheng nodded without saying anything, and then turned to Huang Jinrong and said, "What Mr. Xue said, Mr. Huang must have heard it. It's natural to fight as a soldier. I have said some time ago that my troops don't raise rice buckets, let alone waste people and uncles. They are all uncles. What are I going to do? It should be the same as Captain Huang's mind. Because it is a newly established army, he is worried about casualties, so he dares not participate in the war. When will the army really grow up and mature? He has always been afraid of war, then he can never face the battlefield and train to run in the time. He is just a new soldier, and he is greedy for life and afraid of death. It's just a new soldier."

What he said was rude, and he didn't give Jin Rong any face at all.

And it was a heavy slap in the face. The atmosphere in the conference room seemed a little awkward, and the horizontal flesh on Huang Jinrong's face trembled a few times, as if he was thinking about countermeasures.

When Xue Yue said that, he knew that big things were not good. He was not like the other party. He liked to fight. In the past, when he was in the Youth Gang, he had to face only some gangsters. Those people were simply easy for him, and it was not difficult at all. Now, they have to face style and discipline. Lvdu's more strict army had to make him retreat.

But Xue Yue still answered along with Du Haisheng's words, which made him very unhappy.

Huang Jinrong thought for a moment and said, "Deputy Commander Du is right, but he has to consider it comprehensively. If you find some weak troops for the first army, on the one hand, it can reduce casualties, and on the other hand, it can improve the morale of the army. Wouldn't it be better?"

Du Haisheng couldn't help snorting coldly and retorted very fiercely, "Isn't Mr. Huang's words self-deception? He has developed the problem of army soldiers picking soft persimmons. How can he fight a hard battle in the future?"

"This..."

Huang Jinrong concluded again.

This time, Du Haisheng never gave him any chance to speak, but withdrew his eyes from him and continued to say, "People have seven souls and six souls. Losing the soul is equivalent to only a stiff body. There is no thought. An army is the same. In the army, there should be a military soul. The core of the military soul is not afraid of war, daring to fight, not afraid of sacrifice, and moving forward bravely. This is a kind of blood. It is a bloodthirsty character of a man who becomes extremely fierce after seeing blood. If an army does not have a military soul, not to mention fighting some weak troops, it is afraid of fighting some landlords and old money, and there is not taking The certainty of victory."

"My army will never allow troops without a military soul to exist. If anyone's army soul is lost, you can find a way to find it back for me. Otherwise, how can you lead the army to fight?"

Du Haisheng's tone was so strict that he pointed to Huang Jinrong, and he almost said the words of a soldier and a bear.

"It is the common decision of Wu Dashuai, I and the Staff Headquarters to let the Third Route Army send troops to Shandong. The purpose is not to see how many casualties there are, but to enable the Third Route Army, the weakest of the three fronts, to grow up quickly, form combat effectiveness, and fight for future wars through such a war. Preparation, only soldiers who have experienced the call of death and crawled out of the bloody dead will form their own military soul and exercise their own iron bones. No matter how gorgeous the other is, the reason is abundant, it is just bullshit. If you have any objection, you can complain to the General Staff Department in private.

Du Haisheng's words mean eliminating the possibility of Huang Jinrong continuing to discuss this issue in the conference room, so as not to affect the mood of other generals.

Seeing that things were indescribable, Huang Jinrong had to sigh and struggled like an overturned river in his heart. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "In this case, the humble position is obeyed, but the humble position is old. Recently, it has been infected with wind and cold and it is inconvenient to move. I hope that Commander Wu and Vice Commander Du can allow the inferior position to stay this time. Shanghai, rest at home.

Du Haisheng couldn't help frowning when he heard it, and an imperceptible cold light flashed in his eyes.

Instead, Wu Peifu waved his hand and began to do peace with a smile. He said, "Since Commander Huang is infected with the wind and cold and is old, let's stay in Shanghai. The position of commander of the Sixth Army is temporarily replaced by Zhang Xiaolin, and the position of deputy commander-in-chief. According to my opinion, I don't need it. Just hand over the full authority to General Xue."

Du Haisheng nodded and said, "I think it's okay."

Du Haisheng showed great disdain for Huang Jinrong's words. He said that he was infected with wind chill, old and it was inconvenient to move. This old man called three girls in the Hongkou Fengyue place yesterday and didn't leave the room all night. Don't think he didn't know what was infected with wind cold and inconvenient to move. It was obviously fighting in **. It's so intense that my legs are gone.

Old persperate!

Du Haisheng scolded coldly in his heart that this guy was exactly the same as described in the history of later generations, lustful, greedy for money, timid and unbearable.

After the meeting, Huang Jinrong and others left, leaving only Du Haisheng, Wu Peifu and Xue Yue in the conference room.

Wu Peifu walked to Du Haisheng and said, "Brother Du, look at you, you are still in a hurry. Pay attention to unity."

Du Haisheng snorted disapprovingly and said, "It seems that the commander of the Yellow Army is really old and inconvenient to move. How can he lead troops to fight? Last night, he was in the same room with three women in Yichun Tower. After fighting all night, he didn't feel exhausted for half a day. It seems that his battlefield is more suitable there."

After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Xue Yue and Wu Peifu with big eyes, but they all knew that Du Haisheng was going to have an operation with Jin Rong.
