New Warlords 1909

"The military academy of the navy may pay more attention to it. The original Nanjing Naval Academy will be abolished, and it will be merged with Wusong Merchant Marine Academy and named Wusong Naval Academy. This academy can provide relevant teaching for the society to train merchant marine pilots."

"About the functional planning of the military factory should also be put on the agenda. The military factory in Hefei will lead the maintenance of firearms and the production of bullets and ammunition, and the firearms and artillery factory in Wuhu will lead the production of new standard weapons. In addition, the machinery and personnel of the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau will be withdrawn and merged. The Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau will be gradually improved and perfected, and the Jiangnan Shipyard will be separated from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau to specialize in shipbuilding and repairing."

"In addition, for wood factories, steel factories, machine factories, boiler factories, copper rolling factories, etc. that have no direct relationship with military products or machinery and equipment that are used for both military and civilian purposes, relocation! The equipment and technical personnel of the steelmaking factory can be relocated to Ma'anshan, where copper rolling The factory and other equipment and technical personnel can be relocated to Tongling. As for the machine factory and other machine factory, another factory will be established. The products are not only supplied to the Jiangnan Military Factory, but also to the entire society. Implement a commercial operation model!"

A series of reform measures and plans.It is an important measure for Hua Fei to sort out and improve the existing power resources.Mainly it is related to the military reform of direct security interests, the military industry.Education and other matters, after sorting out the reform.It will maximize the utilization of resources.Expand the use efficiency of military factories!

"About the introduction of the military rank system. I have a specific plan here. The staff department will use it for reference and formulate it! What I need to emphasize here is that after the formation of the new army, all training tasks will be handed over to the operational staff department for temporary responsibility. Except for the necessary personnel on duty, all the chief officers gave me entry to the Jagged Military Academy to study relevant knowledge. If I can’t get a certificate of completion, I can’t be awarded a military rank, and I can’t remove the cap of a reserve officer!”

Hua Fei said this.Many people pricked up their ears.Everyone understands that these words are more aimed at Hua Zhong, the commander of the Second Division.After the last Zhenjiang incident.Although Hua Fei treated them coldly, he did not punish them afterwards.But now, apparently, the real punishment has come.

Although Hua Fei has always been very strict in the selection and appointment of officers.But such a big fight, even Hua Zhong, a direct confidant, did not hesitate to use the knife, which still made everyone present feel pressured!

After the meeting was over, all the officers returned to the accompanying warships one after another, and Hua Fei came to the deck alone.Looking at the quiet cooking smoke along both sides of the river.For a moment, I let go of my miscellaneous thoughts.Indulge in it.

The country is rich and the army is strong.Abundant goods and sufficient people, the ultimate goal of all ideals is not for the quiet and peaceful home in front of you, nor for making this home richer and more beautiful.

"Report. Lurker No. [-] secret message!"

Lurker?Fang Rong?what happened?Hua Fei's heart tightened, and he quickly took the telegram.The encrypted password between Fang Rong and Fang Rong is only known by Fang Rong and him.The telegraph operators of the communication company only know this code name.

Sure enough, exactly as Hua Fei expected, when Song Jiaoren heard that the second revolution was basically over, he strongly demanded to see Fang Rong's master behind the scenes. They kept Song Jiaoren in check, except for restricting his freedom.Except for the termination of contact with any outsiders, all other treatment standards are extremely comfortable, so although Song Jiaoren doesn't understand why Fang Rong and others do what they do.But they saved Song Jiaoren's life.There must be a reason for him being detained like this, so Song Jiaoren has been very cooperative.

But when he learned from the newspaper that the second revolution broke out, the indirect reason was that he was "assassinated", Song Jiaoren was a little confused.With the end of the battle and clarity.Look at the whole process and ending.Who profited the most?Of course it was Hua Fei!Who would most like this war to break out.It's still Hua Fei!

Although Song Jiaoren didn't understand how Hua Fei knew that Yuan Shikai was going to assassinate him, and how he was sure that after he was assassinated, it would trigger a second wave of revolutionary protests against Yuan, but in the end.Song Jiaoren was completely sure that Fang Rong's mastermind behind the scenes was Hua Fei.

I don't know what method he used yesterday, but he finally confirmed his guess.So the attitude is very strong.If Fang Rong doesn't contact his chief again.He started a hunger strike!

Seeing this, Hua Fei couldn't help but smile.This impulsive and passionate revolutionary pioneer did not put his own life as a priority at all.Even after experiencing an incident like an assassination.It still cannot change their ideal and original intention of making the country stronger.

Hua Fei quickly wrote a simple reply in an encrypted way.Ask Fang Rong to tell Song Jiaoren that he will meet with him as soon as possible.Keep him calm.

As soon as the warship arrived at Wusong Port, Hua Fei saw crowds and reporters on the pier.Groups of cadets from the Wu Song Naval Academy wearing newly-issued naval uniforms are lining up with guns, standing at the pier waiting for Hua Fei's arrival.

The entire temporary political circle in Shanghai.Celebrities from all walks of life, such as the business and financial circles, came to greet him one after another.The Haitian, which had been replaced long ago, let out a long siren sound, which was a greeting to the people on the pier.

oh!Looking at the huge hull of the Haitian, the majestic artillery.Many young people who came from other places cheered excitedly, those students from the Wu Song Naval Academy.The body straightened even more.The eyes are full of pride and longing. Driving such a huge ship and guarding our seas and territories is the dream of every young man who applies for the Naval Academy!

Didi toot....The melodious and melodious sound of Western-style music was played on the pier, and teams of guards of honor were holding a grand welcome ceremony.Welcome to Hua Feidi.Including Sun Wen.Huang Xing.Hu Hanmin, Lin Sen and other revolutionary party heroes and Shanghai business circles.Many famous people, such as the banking industry, came to the pier one after another.Even the consulates of various countries in the Shanghai Concession sent representatives.Smith and Edsey were, of course, among the crowd.

"Commander Hua. Commander Hua returned triumphantly and made great contributions to the revolutionary cause. Zai Zhi and a group of comrades are waiting here to see the demeanor of Commander Hua! Sure enough, being famous is not as good as meeting you, young hero. Young hero!"

As soon as Hua Fei got off the boat, Sun Wen greeted him first, and gave Hua Fei such a high honor as soon as he opened his mouth.It made it difficult for Hua Fei to adapt.

"Mr. Sun has won the award. He is just a rude soldier. He only knows how to rely on his blood and the gun in his hand. He only defends the safety of one side and protects the people of the whole place! There is no credit for it. Let alone a hero. The real Heroes. It's those bloody battlefields. Soldiers whose souls are left in a foreign land!"

Sun Wen's expression was slightly startled, and then his eyes moved.Emotionally praised, "Okay, what a good sentence to protect the safety of one side, and a good sentence to protect the people of the whole place! Commander Hua is young. It is as ambitious as this. It really makes us ashamed. The commander does not need to belittle himself so much. The name of a hero is well-deserved. "

"Commander Hua. On behalf of my colleagues in Shanghai's industrial and commercial circles, I celebrate the commander's victory! My generation is very interested in the commander's autonomy proposal. We should fully support this move and contribute to the prosperity of businesses everywhere!" Zhang Han, a famous industrial capitalist, stood up and intervened. Come in.Although they have heard about Hua Fei's youth.But I never expected to be so young, and when facing a leader of the revolutionary party like Sun Wen.He was actually calm and composed, neither humble nor overbearing.Not in a hurry or rash, Zhang Han admired it very much.Young people can achieve such a level of scheming, it is difficult to guess, and their future is limitless.

Hua Fei still smiled back.But he said this to Zhang Han. "Please trouble Mr. Zhang to come in person. The younger generation is terrified. The prosperity of the country is not enough to say that it is not a strong industry. But the revitalization of industry requires the help of Mr. Lai and others! I am a military man who just wields guns and clubs. It is really important for industry and commerce. I am a layman. In the future, I will need more guidance from my husband and others!"

"Oh. Don't dare. If Commander Hua needs it, Zhang will do his best. I am willing to do my best." Zhang Qian was greatly surprised.Hastily said.

Zhang Han was the No. [-] industrialist in the late Qing Dynasty. He had seen countless young heroes over the years, but for Hua Fei, the commander of the First Army of the Revolutionary Army who has been in the limelight recently.I still have a lot of curiosity, you say he is a revolutionary party.He and the revolutionaries have always been very dissociated, and sometimes the relationship is very tense.He even checked out Revolutionary Party officers in the army.

You say he is the warlord of those diehards.He was even more alienated from the Beiyang government, and eventually stood on the side of the revolutionaries.Responding to the Second Revolution.And achieved a record that cannot be ignored by all forces in the country.Especially before the war, he raised construction bonds and invested in the construction of arsenals and aircraft factories.Engine factory, steel factory.The construction of a series of heavy industries such as copper smelting plants is even more confusing.

You said such a huge amount of money.If all are used to develop the military.How much military power should be expanded and how many arms should be purchased!In particular, Zhang Han and other business people are more interested in Hua Fei's implementation of the land reform bill in Anhui Province.Tax reform and business-enhancing policies.Obviously, in the concept of Huafeidi, the status of businessmen is much higher than that of the traditional landlord and gentry class.

What makes Zhang Han and others even more amazing is that Hua Fei established the Pacific Bank and Galaxy Investment Company long ago by relying on the silver dollars he earned from the Shanghai stock market.Very strategic!After several years of rapid development, Pacific Bank.It has become a well-known large bank in the Yangtze River area, providing a non-negligible assistance to Hua Feidi's army and construction, and Galaxy Investment Company.It is even more unique.Many of the companies invested in have grown and grown.for example.Today, there are four emerging department stores in Shanghai.Xianshi, Yongan, Xinxin, Daxin.Almost every store has a share of Galaxy Investment, and 30% of Dah Sing Department Store's shares are owned by Galaxy Investment Company.

In the eyes of Sun Wen and other revolutionaries, Hua Fei is a powerful warlord with an army of tens of thousands.But in the eyes of Zhang Han and others, only the assets of Pacific Bank and Galaxy Investment Company.Hua Fei is already considered a well-known giant in Shanghai.

After chatting politely with all the celebrities and gentry who came to greet him, Hua Fei, under the protection of the guards, boarded a Ford car. Seeing this, the surrounding journalists rushed forward when they saw the opportunity.Hua Fei could barely open his eyes under the flashing spotlight, and the problems were even more varied.

"Commander Hua, may I ask how confident you are that the central government will agree to the request for autonomy?"

"Commander Hua. May I ask how you will deal with the tens of thousands of captured soldiers?"

"Commander Hua, Commander Hua, our country's aircraft operations have created countless precedents in the history of the world's air forces. May I ask why Commander Hua attaches so much importance to the Air Force?"

"What does Commander Hua think of our existing air force?"

"Will Commander Hua be the governor of the autonomous government?"

"Is Commander Hua married? Is it engaged? It is rumored that Commander Hua has an affair with a female student, a lover relationship. I don't know if it is true?"

"Commander Hua..."

It was hard to get rid of those difficult reporters.Hua Fei left in the car with his head covered in sweat. These uncrowned kings are so powerful that they even found some lovers, my God.I really don't know where they found out!Hua Fei is not avoiding reporters.It's just that there are many issues before negotiating with the Beiyang government.Can't make it public yet.

anyway.Hua Fei came to Shanghai again, causing a huge shock both in Shanghai and in all walks of life in the south of the Yangtze River.Especially after the Beiyang government ceased fighting.Soon it was reported that representatives would be sent to Shanghai to negotiate the armistice, and almost all Jiangnan provinces sent telegrams to express their support.Only Li Liejun from Jiangxi telegraphed.The Beiyang government signed an armistice agreement with it.And before withdrawing from all troops in Jiangxi.His attack on Nanchang will not stop.

After getting off the pier, Hua Fei drove straight to the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, which is the largest in modern China.Huafei has long been known as the mother factory of military machinery with the most complete equipment.He also didn't expect to be able to visit Shanghai so quickly.Otherwise, it might not have invested huge sums of money to build a large military factory in Wuhu.

Feng Ru, Louis.Yang Keguan and other technical personnel that Huafei currently relies heavily on and all the technical backbones of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau are all waiting in the factory. After Huafei entered the factory, he didn't say anything, just under the leadership of a group of skilled workers.Take a tour of this historic factory district.

The manufacturing bureau occupies a large area.There are many branch factories.It even includes two schools, the craft school and the dialect school (translation).However, these two schools will soon be relocated and set up as independent education colleges.Widely recruit students.Cultivate talents, one to the manufacturing bureau.A group of staff officers who came with Hua Fei started to work and found the relevant person in charge.Discuss the splitting of the school and the relocation of related branches.

The Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has been around for some years, since Li Hongzhang built the prototype of the Manufacturing Bureau here.Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has developed through decades of ups and downs.A relatively complete manufacturing system has been formed, but some machines are aging, and the technical level and manufacturing process lag still exist.This can be seen from the dull faces of the workers in the manufacturing bureau and some of the rusty machines.If the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau wants to become the No. [-] factory in East Asia, it must invest a huge amount of money to carry out a new round of technological transformation and machine upgrades!

"We must increase the investment in the Jiangnan factory, increase the training of workers and improve the treatment of workers. We must let the Jiangnan factory take the road of marketization so that the products can sell well." Hua Fei sighed as he walked, "About the reconstruction plan of the Jiangnan factory. .I have already discussed with the staff, and everyone brainstormed. Put forward some opinions. We will vigorously promote it after referring to the revision. It is obviously unrealistic to fully introduce new machines. And many of our machines are not backward, but only in the Structurally, it lacks rationality."

"Yang Keguan. You can't let go of the affairs of the School of Mechanical Engineering. About the transformation and upgrading of the Jiangnan Factory. I will personally preside over it. You come to be my deputy and help me formulate a set of detailed plans! The main thing is to introduce a complete set of machine tool processing equipment. The relevant machines required for production! The original manufacturing machines. Can be converted to produce civilian machines!"

I heard that Hua Fei personally took part in the renovation and upgrading of the Jiangnan factory.Many old workers and technicians in the Jiangnan factory couldn't help but smile.I have been in the Jiangnan factory for many years.Which one of them has many Jiangnan factories has no feelings, but the machinery and technology are relatively backward, the funds are lacking, and corruption is rampant, making the Jiangnan factory always in a state of puffiness.

But only a few words from Hua Fei were heard.These old workers who have worked in the Jiangnan factory for many years.I couldn't help but burst into tears of excitement!Not for anything else.Just because of Hua Fei's words, such words.Even if he can't achieve it, it is enough to make them feel gratified. After all, the most powerful commander in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River today takes such an attitude of importance.It can be reassuring.

"All the machines in the factory must run at full speed for me, especially the production of guns. The factory of artillery and ammunition. Can't stop for a moment!"

"Hua Siling!" A nearly 50-year-old worker heard the words and couldn't help standing up and said cautiously. "Commander. Not to mention that full-speed production requires a lot of money. Just follow the existing conventional production. Our bullet factory can produce more than [-] rounds of ammunition every day, and more than [-] rounds of artillery shells per month. The monthly production of landmines or grenades Thousands of pieces, hundreds of thousands of pounds of smokeless gunpowder! In addition, we have a large amount of guns and ammunition in our warehouse. Enough for the commander to use! Instead of investing huge sums of money to expand production, it is better to use the money to transform... Commander forgive me. Little old man Disrespectful!"

As the old worker was talking, he realized that all eyes were on him. His heart was agitated, and he quickly shut up and apologized in panic.

"Master, what is your name? What position do you hold?"

Hua Fei's polite question made the old worker at a loss.Hastily said in a panic, "Don't dare, the little old man is named Guan Dahammer. He is just a small craftsman, responsible for the quality inspection and supervision of the products!"

"Very good. Process supervision and inspection are essential to make a product good or bad, but you are not a craftsman. You can be regarded as a quality engineer." Hua Fei laughed happily, seeming to comfort and point out "But don't worry, just give me full power and produce all the weapons and ammunition I mentioned at full speed. Store all our warehouses to the full. If the warehouses in the factory area are not enough, we will build new warehouses or rent other warehouses temporarily. .Of course, the quality of the product cannot be neglected. The master must help me check this point!"

Never before has an official been so polite to these craftsmen, Guan Sledgehammer is like that national scholar.He patted his chest excitedly. "Please don't worry, Commander. Even if I turn off the sledgehammer without sleep, I will not miss a defective product."

"Never sleep? That's not okay. The old master has collapsed. Where can I find such a loyal and responsible engineer like you!"

Hua Fei's slightly joking words caused everyone present to laugh, and those craftsmen who were somewhat cautious also relaxed a lot.
