"Yes."

"Fang Chen."

"General."

"I know it's not easy on your side, but the army needs weapons now. You ask the masters in the arsenal to work harder to ensure the supply of weapons needed for the expansion of the army. Also, all the arsenals and ordnance factories under the Border Inspection Office , as well as all kinds of machinery factories controlled by the military, all of which are fully allocated to you. If you want people, money, and machines, I will satisfy you. There are also some machinery and equipment needed by the arsenal. I will contact the Japanese side to see Can you buy a batch of machinery and equipment to continue to expand our arsenal."

"Yes."

Han Linchun originally had a lot of stock in his hands.

But before Duan Xun's economy was tight, he sold a lot of weapons to Lu Yongxiang and Lu Rongting.Half of that money was invested in railway construction and road construction, and the other half was invested in the construction of power plants.

That's why there is a lack of weapons.

Now there are only more than 40 troops, and Duan Xun's arsenal needs to be fully operational. Duan Xun believes that the scale is still too small.Now is the time for the "arms embargo". It is impossible to directly buy some arms or the parts needed to manufacture firearms.

But it is no problem to buy some machinery and equipment.

In fact, many of the machinery and equipment needed by the arsenal are not much different from those needed by those machine manufacturers, and they can be completely converted and used.That is to say, the machinery and equipment of civilian machine factories can produce weapons, and military factories can also produce civilian products.Given Duan Xun's current relationship with Japan, even if Japan knew that Duan Xun purchased machinery and equipment to expand the arsenal, they would not stop it too much.

Still need to scale up.

The annual production of rifles should be more than [-].

"Minister Gu, although there will be many problems, the training of recruits must be accelerated. For the training of recruits, I will follow the method of Minister Xiong (Xiong Kewu) and hand over all the seized and confiscated weapons to your mobilization department. Although these weapons There are all kinds of things, some of them are very backward, but we should deal with them first. I will not assign the students who graduated this year to the army, but let them report to your mobilization department to help you train recruits. You must give me training within half a year Send out [-] qualified recruits."

"Yes."

Gu Pinzhen nodded.

The biggest difference between Duan Xun's side and the Yunnan Army is that the recruit training and troops are completely separated.Now China's warlords are expanding their armies by directly recruiting troops and assigning them directly to the troops.Then recruits are trained in the army.

But Duan Xun trained the recruits first, and then assigned the recruits to various units.

There is one more step.

But it does a lot.

It's just that this is the first time that Gu Pinzhen has trained so many recruits within half a year.Training [-] new recruits within half a year is still the lowest goal.

"Brother Geng Guang (Yang Jie)."

"General."

"Currently there are military academies in every province, and the establishment is very chaotic. There are too many and too scattered military academies. Go back and discuss with the Ministry of Academic Affairs to see how to reorganize these military academies. According to my opinion, we don't need so many military academies right now."

"Yes."

"Everyone, since there is no war at present, the next biggest thing for the troops is the reorganization work. One year, no matter what, the reorganization work of each unit must be completed within one year. I hope everyone will work hard together."

"Yes."

There's nothing like Army work.

After the meeting was over, Duan Xun found that Lang Boyu had been at the door.All the generals left before Lang Boyu walked in.

"General, Kulun Telegram: The 'Kulen Agreement' has been signed with the eighth Jebtsundam Babok Dogegen, and it can be published publicly as long as the general agrees."

"Wang Yinchuan, the plenipotentiary representative of Duan Xun, the Border Superintendent, and the eighth Jebtsundamba signed the 'Kulun Agreement'."

"Border Inspectorate has issued a 'Cullen Statement'."

"The Eighth Jebtsundamba, on behalf of the autonomous government, decided to cancel the autonomy of Outer Mongolia."

"The Treaty of China, Russia and Mongolia is abolished, and Tannu U Lianghai officially returns to China."

"Sun Yat-sen sent a telegram and stated that the recovery of Outer Mongolia's merits this time is more than that of Fu Jiezi and Chen Tang."

"Introduction to General Li Yunlong, the commander of the cavalry brigade who first reached Kulun."

"General Jing Yuexiu who overshadowed Fu Jiezi."

1919 10 Month 17 Day.

Wang Yinchuan, as the plenipotentiary representative of Duan Xun, director of the Mongolian and Tibetan Committee of the Border Defense Supervision Office, signed the "Kulun Agreement" in Kulun on behalf of Duan Xun and the eighth Jebtsundamba, abolishing the autonomy of Outer Mongolia and canceling all the privileges of Outer Mongolia.The "Khakhta Agreement" signed in 1915 and all previous treaties between China, Russia and Mongolia were abolished.

After the "Kulun Statement", the Eighth Jebtsundamba gave a statement to the Mongolian and Tibetan Committee to abolish the autonomy of Outer Mongolia, abolish the "Kyakta Agreement", and abolish all previous political, economic and military agreements signed by China, Russia and Mongolia. treaty document.

At this time, not to mention those who support Duan Xun, such as Lu Yongxiang, Governor of Zhejiang, Ni Sichong, Governor of Anhui, Zhang Guangjian, Governor of Gansu, Li Houji, Governor of Fujian, He Fenglin, the envoy of the Songhu Guard, and even Duan Xun's enemy, Zhiluyu. Envoy Cao Kun, Patrol Envoy of the Three Eastern Provinces Zhang Zuolin, Jiangsu Governor Li Chun, Jiangxi Governor Chen Guangyuan, Guangdong and Guangxi Patrol Envoy Lu Rongting, and Commander-in-Chief of the Guangdong Army Chen Jiongming also sent congratulatory messages to Duan Xun.

Not sending congratulatory messages is not enough, because the whole country is sending congratulatory messages.

As well as President Xu Shichang, as well as Prime Minister Jin Yunpeng, who is currently in crisis, and even Sun Yat-sen, Duan Qirui, and Feng Guozhang, who are currently in the field, all sent congratulatory messages to Duan Xun.If anyone doesn't send a congratulatory message at this time, maybe the public opinion will say, why don't you send a congratulatory message?Are you Chinese?Can spray you to death.

So even if you don't like Duan Xun, you have to send a congratulatory message to Duan Xun in order to deal with public opinion about this warlord who is not interested at all.

sensation.

It was far more sensational than Duan Xun announcing that the troops were marching into Kulun.Because at that time, the troops were going to march into Kulun and cancel Mongolian autonomy.And now the goal is really accomplished.The whole public opinion is boiling.

you could put it that way.

This is the biggest event in these years, or after the founding of the Republic of China.In history, Xu Shuzheng marched into Kulun and won Outer Mongolia and gained a great reputation.Lian and Duan Qirui have always been rivals Sun Yat-sen gave Xu Shuzheng the highest evaluation.If Duan Qirui's Anhui faction hadn't been defeated very quickly in the Zhiwan War, Xu Shuzheng might have been able to do a lot of things with this reputation.

Now that Outer Mongolia has canceled its autonomy, Duan Xun has been pushed to the highest position of public opinion.

The national hero's hat was firmly worn on Duan Xun's head.After all, no matter what, Duan Xun also canceled Mongolian autonomy, and completely abolished the "Khaktu Contract" signed at the beginning, allowing Tannu Ulianghai to completely return to the embrace of China.

Let Duan Xun's popularity soar now.

Duan Xun originally sold only 3000 million of the public bonds issued in Shanghai, and there are still 1000 million to continue to work on.Unexpectedly, within two days on the 17th and 18th, the remaining 1000 million public bonds were sold out immediately.Wang Yongjiang took advantage of this opportunity to issue another 2000 million public bonds, which were also quickly purchased, allowing people to appreciate Duan Xun's current influence in China.

More than that.

When Duan Xun issued a notice to recruit recruits, a large number of students asked to join the army.And not only the students in the area under Duan Xun's current control, many students came to Duan Xun to join the army because of Duan Xun.Far more than ever before.

Even the fact that Jin Yunpeng has handed in his resignation letter in Beijing is now overshadowed by the events in Outer Mongolia.Public opinion has been paying attention to the war between Jin Yunpeng's cabinet and the generals of the army.Many newspapers are concerned about the future of Jin Yunpeng's cabinet, but when the incident in Mongolia comes out, few newspapers pay attention to it.Because compared to taking down Kulun and taking back Tangnu Wulianghai, the Beijing incident is not much news.

What news can be compared with what is happening in Outer Mongolia now.

Amidst the praise, Duan Xun called everyone to discuss the aftermath of Outer Mongolia.Kulun was taken down, and the autonomy of Outer Mongolia was also cancelled, but how to control Outer Mongolia is the most important thing.
