"Send a telegram to Wan Xuancai, asking him to bring Tang Shengzhi's Sixth Mixed Brigade and Tian Songyao's First Mixed Brigade to Yueyang, where he will set up a garrison command for the upper reaches of the Yangtze River."

"Yes."

"Yang Jie."

"General."

"You also serve as the deputy chief of staff of the General Staff Department. After we enter Shaanxi, you will preside over the daily work of the Military Department."

"it is good."

Yang Jie is not a man with big ambitions.

Yang Jie's greatest interest is teaching and being a staff officer.However, Yang Jie has deep qualifications, not only has no relationship with the officers of the Yunnan Army, but also has a good relationship with the Sichuan Army.In addition, Yang Jie is also a classmate of Duan Xun, so he is very suitable to be in charge of the daily work of the military department.

"This time I brought the Second Army of the Southwest Frontier Defense Army (Commander Liu Xiang) and the Second Mixed Brigade (Brigade Commander Ma Xiaojun). By the way, He Yaozu and the others are coming soon, right?"

"It has arrived."

"Where is the Longyun Department that left from Tang Jiyao's side?"

"They still need some time."

"Don't worry. It will take time for Prime Minister Duan's funds to come down. After Long Yun's regiment arrives in Chongqing, He Yaozu's troops and Long Yun's regiment will be used to build a mixed brigade and give them the designation of the Fourth Mixed Brigade. He Yaozu will be in charge of the brigade. Chief, this time also enter Shaanxi with us."

"Yes."

"Inspector You (You Min)."

"arrive."

"This time I brought a gendarmerie division with me into Shaanxi."

"Yes."

"Have the Fourth Army of the Southwest Frontier Defense Army (commander Yin Chengyu) stationed in Chongqing."

"Yes."

After Duan Xun issued the order, he said to Xiong Kewu: "The reorganization of the troops is very busy. You have to worry about it during this time. All the troops must complete the new reorganization work as soon as possible."

"Yes."

"Minister Han (Han Jianduo)."

"arrive."

"Immediately start preparing the winter clothes for the army. I don't know when I will be able to return to Shaanxi this time. It is estimated that some troops will not be able to come back this year. The winter in Shaanxi is colder than ours. Don't let the troops lack winter clothes."

"Yes."

"General, why are you here?"

Chongqing Wharf.

Ren Hongjun led many people to wait for the arrival of the first batch of steel plant equipment at the pier.Originally, Ren Hongjun came to Sichuan to study, and then to start a science academy.But after coming to Sichuan, Duan Xun dragged him away before he found a school to teach or opened his own science academy.Duan Xun attaches great importance to Ren Hongjun, because in Duan Xun's eyes, Ren Hongjun is not only a technical talent, but also a management talent who understands management.It is tantamount to a technocratic talent who understands technology, so it is really a corporal who dragged him into his border supervision office in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Tibet.At present, Ren Hongjun is not only a member of the Industrial Development Committee, but also serves as the director of the Industrial Division under the business department.Mainly responsible for the design and planning of heavy industry in Sichuan.Of course, at present, it is mainly responsible for the construction of the steel plant and the construction of supporting factories around the steel plant.

Yang Xingfo and Zhou Ren had already gone down to direct the steel plant equipment to approach the pier.At this time, Ren Hongjun saw a group of soldiers coming.

Duan Xun is at the forefront.

So immediately went up.

"I just came to have a look. After all, this is the first batch of steel plant equipment, and it is also the start of our Sichuan Iron and Steel Plant."

Duan Xun's troops were preparing to enter Shaanxi. Duan Xun heard that the equipment of the steel plant was going to the Chongqing wharf, so he brought people over to have a look.Because Dong Songyan's guard regiment was incorporated into Ma Xiaojun's Second Mixed Brigade of the Southwest Frontier Defense Force, Ma Xiaojun's Second Mixed Brigade is currently only serving as a guard force.

When Duan Xun came out, Ma Xiaojun personally followed with a company of soldiers.Of course, when Duan Xun came to the wharf where the crowd was mixed, Tang Shizun also sent police to maintain order.Even many plainclothes came out, mainly to protect Duan Xun's safety.

"Have Yang Shuan (Yang Xingfo) and Zhou Ren arrived?"

"Here we are. They have been here for two days and are now directing the ship to dock and unload the equipment."

"Well, let's go and have a look."

Although it is only a steel factory with an annual output of more than [-] tons of pig iron, it is probably a small workshop in those industrial powerhouses.But for Duan Xun, this is the first step to carry his industrial dream.Compared with coal mines, setting up a steel factory has always been Duan Xun's dream.

It's just that Duan Xun has not been strong enough to dare to build a steel factory.This cooperation with Japan, using Japanese loans to purchase Japanese blast furnace equipment and set up a steel plant, made Duan Xun unable to sleep for many days.

In an industrial country, steel is definitely the most important data.

With steel, Duan Xun dared to say that his industry had started.Therefore, Duan Xun was quite excited when the first batch of steel equipment arrived today.It is very exciting to think about China's railways, weapons, and even the establishment of shipyards in the future, using the steel produced by itself.

"General, he is Yang Shuan (Yang Xingfo), and he is Zhou Ren. Hongfu (Yang Xingfo), Zijing (Zhou Ren), this is General Duan Xun, the border defense supervisor of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Tibet."

"Hello you two."

"I met General Duan."

Duan Xun saw these two people for the first time.

Although I don't know how powerful the two are, but just relying on their academic qualifications, Duan Xun is quite relieved.Regardless of how people criticize academic qualifications in 100 years, but for people like Duan Xun, academic qualifications are a good thing.

Ability is more important than education?

Probably so.

But for a high-ranking person like Duan Xun, there are countless things to deal with every day, so there is no time to carefully examine whether you are capable.And for people like Yang Xingfo and Zhou Ren, even if you haven't shown your ability yet, showing your education background is enough for Duan Xun to give them a chance.Especially in today's China, where even middle school graduates are high-level intellectuals, graduate students returning from studying in the United States are talents, and Duan Xun is willing to give them opportunities.If someone suddenly came to Duan Xun now and said that he is a talent and capable, let Duan Xun reuse him.And he didn't have any academic qualifications, nor any qualifications, so why did Duan Xun give him this opportunity.

Duan Xun is such a busy person, he must first look at their academic qualifications, their fame, and their qualifications.It's not that Duan Xun looks down on those people who have no qualifications, no education, and no fame, but that they are not qualified to be in Duan Xun's eyes at all.

Maybe some real talent is lost this way.But for Duan Xun, how can Duan Xun have the skill to distinguish who is capable and who is not.

"The equipment is so big, how are you going to transport it?"

Looking at the unloaded equipment, Duan Xun frowned.

Very big.

Although Duan Xun couldn't guess the exact weight, Duan Xun knew that the equipment was heavy just by looking at the outside.The light ones should weigh several hundred catties, and the heavy ones should weigh thousands or thousands of catties.

Needless to say, here in Chongqing.

The geology and landforms here are very different.Coming out of Chongqing Wharf, it is all uphill.Moreover, China is now an agricultural country, and there is currently no machinery and equipment.In addition, the location of the steel plant is relatively far from the wharf, so how to transport these equipment along the way.

"General, uphill must be carried by people. After reaching the road, most of the equipment can be transported with a horse-drawn cart and a few more horses. However, some large-scale equipment is not good, and it is estimated that people still need to carry it."
