Beiyang reactionaries

Xiong Kewu nodded frequently listening to Duan Xun's words.

Including the army generals below, it is the first time to hear from Duan Xun how China will get rid of the big powers.It is easy to shout the slogan "Down with the great powers and down with the warlords".But exactly how to do it is the hardest part.

And watching Duan Xun talk freely, everyone knows that Duan Xun is not aimless.It's that I have a draft in my heart and a plan.All the people in here now are military, and they like to have someone who can lead them with a plan.

The first point Duan Xun said applies not only to Duan Xun alone, but also to the current Chinese government and all local warlords in China.

Nationalization of weapons.

With your own weapons, you can speak louder.Just look at how Duan Qirui fought back against Feng Guozhang.Duan Qirui obtained a large amount of loans and weapons from Japan, and then used the money and weapons to seduce warlords like Zhang Zuolin and Cao Kun who were wandering outside.Use a vice president position, then money and weapons.If it weren't for this, how could Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin support Duan Qirui to attack Feng Guozhang.

This is the current warlord in China.

Because Chinese warlords, even Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin, lack weapons and ammunition. It is conceivable that the Chinese army is currently dependent on foreign weapons.Including Duan Xun is also extremely dependent on Japanese weapons.

Therefore, Duan Xun will never stop his efforts to localize weapons.Although Duan Xun's Sichuan arsenal is not yet self-sufficient, it was still very helpful when Duan Xun expanded his army on a large scale.

After all, the annual output of rifles in the Sichuan Arsenal now exceeds [-] rifles a year, which can arm six or seven brigades.In addition, the Sichuan Arsenal also imitated artillery, heavy machine guns, and light machine guns.The number of troops capable of arming each year reaches more than three divisions.

"Second point, the railways and highways must be in your own hands. You can't sell the right of way if you sell anything. Only when you have the railways and highways in your hands can you not be caught by the big powers."

"The third point is that important economic lifelines must be in our own hands. What is an important economic lifeline is an industry that affects the stability of the country. For now, industries such as post offices, steel plants, coal mines, power plants, and water plants It must be firmly in our hands, and financial industries such as banks and money houses must be controlled. As for spinning mills and flour mills, we will leave it to our private capital to compete.”

"We just need to grasp these most important things and prevent them from falling into the hands of the great powers. Then we will be suppressed by the great powers, but we will never be really controlled by the great powers. Of course, the second and third points have nothing to do with our army. We As far as the army is concerned, the most important thing is to control the arsenal, the logistics, and the command of the army. Then we will not be afraid of the great powers. When we have enough strength, we will be able to expel these great powers.”

"Whoa whoa-"

Xiong Kewu took the lead in applauding, and the others also took the lead in applauding.

Duan Xun waited for a while, waved everyone to calm down, and continued: "The goal of our People's Party is to build a prosperous and strong China. But to build a prosperous and strong China, the first step is to complete the national revolution. What needs to be done is the independence of our nation. And the main force of the national revolution is us soldiers. To overthrow the warlords and the great powers is easy to shout slogans, but it is extremely difficult to actually implement them. Because the western powers are much stronger than us, the domestic warlords The strength is also stronger than ours. Therefore, what the national revolution needs is the bloodshed and sacrifice of our soldiers. Many of our soldiers may not see the day when the motherland is prosperous and strong. But this is the mission given to us soldiers by history. The future of the country needs us soldiers , our countrymen need our soldiers, and everything will not allow our soldiers to retreat."

"General, if we choose to be soldiers, we are not afraid of sacrifice. It is our honor and honor to be able to sacrifice for the country."

passionate.

Duan Xun said that these people were full of enthusiasm.Although the People's Party's party principles are very attractive, especially many of these people have been influenced by the Three People's Principles.The people's party's party spirit was born out of the Three People's Principles, but it is more attractive than the Three People's Principles.

But it's not as exciting as what Duan Xun said now.

This is the first time for Duan Xun to point out the current direction of the army.

Li Weiru, as the commander of the first division, has a seat very close to the front.He was very moved by what Duan Xun said today, and he also supported it very much.So stand up right away.

"Yes, General."

"Afraid of death not to be a soldier."

"Since you are a soldier, your mission is to defend your home and country."

Duan Xun nodded on it, and continued: "Today's meeting is held to discuss the issue of the national revolution. Documents on the national revolution will be issued soon and distributed to the party groups of each army. I want our army to understand , What is the mission of our army. Of course, this process may take five, ten, or 20 years, but no matter how time passes, I hope everyone here understands the mission of our People’s Party. Even if there is only one person in the end, we must Go on firmly."

162 Winning the Hunan Army 6

"Heling (Li Pinxian), have you made up your mind?"

"Yes."

Qi Yang.

After Tan Haoming was flanked by Liu Duanshang's troops, he was in panic all day long.He was retreating with an army of about [-] people. Liu Duanshang waited for him to walk halfway, and suddenly flanked the middle and tail of the army.Tan Haoming was running away at that time, and when Liu Duanshang attacked like this, the whole army immediately messed up.In a panic, Tan Haoming only cared about running away.Speaking of which, Tan Haoming's guards and the first regiment of the Gui army are definitely the elite troops of the first division of the Gui army. The weapons and equipment are also bought by Lu Rongting from Japan, and they are serious Japanese weapons.But Tan Haoming, the boss, is so timid, how could the army have combat effectiveness.Each wished to have two more legs.

When Tan Haoming arrived at Qiyang, he counted, and there were only about [-] people who ran back with him.Later, some people were recruited one after another, but in the end it was only about [-] people.The other troops were either killed by Liu Duanshang's troops, or captured by Liu Duanshang's troops, and some even led troops to join Liu Duanshang as soon as they got angry.

Looking at the army with only about [-] people, Tan Haoming felt that he could not defend Qi Yang at all, so he retreated towards Lingling.But soon he received the news that Baoqing had been captured by Duan Xun's troops, so he immediately withdrew from Lingling again, ran to Guilin, Guangxi, and left Hunan completely.When Tan Haoming went out for the expedition, he brought [-] Guangdong and Guangxi troops into Hunan, but he didn't expect that when he came back, he would be so miserable.

So much so that Duan Xun originally only wanted Ma Xiaojun's model battalion, but a large number of Guijun troops chose to surrender in frustration.Because Tan Haoming ran too fast, important cities in Yongzhou, such as Qiyang and Lingling areas, became empty cities in a short period of time.

Fortunately, when Li Jishen attacked Baoqing, he also suffered a lot of casualties, so he did not continue to attack at that time, but stayed in Baoqing to recuperate.When the people sent by Li Jishen reported that there was an empty city there, so when Li Jishen was about to attack, he received information that Wu Peifu and the Hunan and Guangdong Army in Chenzhou, mainly the Hunan Army, had reached an armistice agreement.

So Duan Xun ordered troops to station in Changde.

That's why Yongzhou didn't fight.After the Hunan Army and Wu Peifu reached an armistice agreement, they mobilized the first temporary division of the Hunan Army to Yongzhou to guard against Duan Xun's troops.Although the situation has been temporarily stabilized, this battle to protect the law can be said to have been a complete failure.

Especially Lu Rongting's performance made the Hunan Army very dissatisfied.

"Tiefu (Liu Xing), you too..."

"kindness."

Liu Xing nodded.

Then he said indignantly: "In this Dharma protection war, the Beiyang Army launched two campaigns to attack Hunan. Both times, our Hunan Army was the main force and fought against the Beiyang Army. But Lu Rongting just wanted to take advantage of it, but he didn't want to work hard at all. What they say sounds good, but what they do is despised. Look at Tan Haoming, he only wanted to get rich after entering Changsha, and he didn't think about how to fight. As our friendly army, this kind of person is simply a shame to our Hunan Army."

It can be said that the Hunan Army performed very well in this law protection war.

Most of the casualties of the Beiyang Army were caused by the Hunan Army.Although the Hunan Army's weapons and equipment are backward, and its military pay is not as good as that of the Guangxi Army and the Guangdong Army, its performance on the battlefield is far better than that of the Guangxi Army and the Guangdong Army.

It's a pity that the Hunan Army itself split first.

If it weren't for the split of the Hunan Army, with the strength of the Hunan Army, it would be able to fight more beautiful battles.

"Anyway, serving as a soldier is not a soldier. Although Duan Xun was from the Beiyang Army, he has a good reputation. When did we hear that Duan Xun's troops harassed the local area. With so many troops entering Hunan this time, it is Duan Xun's army has the best military discipline and the best reputation. It is even better than our Hunan Army's military discipline. Looking at some recent newspapers, they are all praising Duan Xun's army's military discipline in our Hunan. Anyway, whoever rules Hunan is not the rule , as long as it is good for Hunan, it doesn’t matter. Meng Xiao (Tang Shengzhi)’s letter guarantees that as long as he joins Duan Xun’s army, we will all be promoted to a higher level. I don’t know what righteousness or doctrine is.”

Liu Xing is very direct.

The reason why Duan Xun transferred Tang Shengzhi to Hunan was because Tang Shengzhi had a huge network in the Hunan Army.After all, Tang Shengzhi studied at Hunan Army Primary School and Wuchang Army Middle School. At present, most of the middle and lower-level officers of the Hunan Army have attended these two schools.Many of them are Tang Shengzhi's classmates and friends.

After the battle began to calm down, Tang Shengzhi began to secretly contact his classmates.Among these people, Liu Xing and Tang Shengzhi had the best relationship. They went to Hunan Army Primary School together, went to Wuchang Army Middle School, and finally went to Baoding Military Academy.The two have known each other for more than ten years, and they were classmates when they were teenagers.

So after receiving Tang Shengzhi's letter, Liu Xing decided to join Tang Shengzhi.

In the Hunan Army, he was just a company commander, and he defected to Tang Shengzhi. Tang Shengzhi guaranteed that as long as he defected to Duan Xun, he would be a battalion commander immediately.

"Brother Guiyan (He Yaozu), I'm different from you. The Guijun doesn't pay much attention to us military school graduates, so I joined the Hunan Army. But although I have many classmates in the Hunan Army, the Hunan Army is no different. After all, I am from Guangxi in the Hunan Army. After graduation for so many years, with the credit I made when I defeated Zhang Zongchang’s army, I have just erased the acting company commander. In comparison, Duan Xun’s army is the Beiyang Army, and there is no Too obvious regional color, officers from many places are there. I can't see hope in the Hunan Army, and I think a change of environment is not a bad thing for me."

Li Pinxian is very realistic.

Li Pinxian participated in the Wuchang Uprising, and graduated from Baoding Military Academy four years ago.However, after going to the Guangxi Army for two years, he was not given a real job, so he defected to the Hunan Army in a rage.However, in the Hunan Army for two years, he fought many battles with the Hunan Army and made a lot of contributions.But he couldn't get promoted, which made him very complaining.When Cheng Qian and the others attacked Yuezhou, Li Pinxian had already made contributions, but Li Pinxian was still the acting company commander.

Until this time when the Hunan-Guangdong Army counterattacked Zhang Huaizhi in eastern Hunan, Li Pinxian's troops made great contributions again.Li Pinxian was appointed as the official company commander.But at this time Li Pinxian was already very dissatisfied with the Hunan Army.The Hunan Army is the troops of Hunan people.When being promoted, the generals above are always the first to promote officers from Hunan, not from Guangxi.

So Li Pinxian decided to join Tang Shengzhi.

We are all old classmates, and the relationship is also very good.The tree moved the dead and the living, Li Pinxian wanted to change the environment.

"Hey--"

He Yaozu sighed.
