Back to the Republic of China as a commander

Wang Zhenyu's words surprised every general present. Although they are generals now, in their subconscious mind, they still believe that the Beiyang government is the most powerful political group in China, and the Beiyang army is currently the strongest in China. With a large armed force, it is a very terrifying thing for people like yourself to challenge, and it is even more unthinkable that it will perish.

Wang Zhenyu looked at the surprised expressions of everyone present, and frowned subconsciously. It seems that he still thought the question too simply. He thought that when he came to this era, he had the inherent advantage of being a traveler who knew the direction of history. Pulling up a team, developing the economy and armaments, can defeat Beiyang and enter the center, but now it seems that I still underestimate history and human nature. The strength of Beiyang actually makes my subordinates even want to challenge I don’t even dare to have it. It seems that the so-called pioneer is really not bragging, at least he didn’t when people agree with him. He dares to face and challenge. Even if he fails, he deserves a thumbs up. Compliment it.

No, I want these grandchildren to be confident. Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, and dogs travel thousands of miles to eat shit. It’s a hammer to buy whether it’s a wolf or shit. Otherwise, don’t fantasize about fighting for world hegemony and saving China. It’s better to clean up early The burden, taking a family of immigrants to the United States is the kingly way. After all, personally, it is the kingly way to always stand with the winner.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhenyu said: "I'm all up, I think there is a big misunderstanding in your thinking, what we have to do now is to unify our thinking, so let's talk about what I saw in Beijing , let me announce the good news first, that is, our National Socialist Party has successfully established its own intelligence in the entire North China and Northeast China, and we have fought several times with the military and political law enforcement department under Lao Yuan's hands, all of which have been great success , this trip to Beijing, this information has brought us nearly 20 billion Chinese dollars in revenue. In addition, the Luxembourg Principality’s immigration plan has been completed for the most part, and the loan of 2000 million pounds promised at the beginning is also in place. Yuan of income, the money we can use now is 100 billion Hua Yuan, so for a long time in the future, everyone can rest assured, boldly expand our army, and update our equipment!"

Ten billion, hearing this news, all the generals here are boiling, or how to say that money is the guts of a man, maybe a man was very useless in the first half of his life, but once he develops, then you will find a Completely different people, and vice versa.

What is the concept of 100 billion Chinese yuan? According to a soldier’s monthly salary of 80 yuan, basic board and lodging of 120 yuan, and a full set of equipment of 1000 yuan, it is enough to form an army of 50 million well-equipped troops. As a unit, supporting 50 elite troops is enough to last for at least two years. What is the concept of [-] troops? It is definitely not a dream to defeat Beiyang and conquer the whole country. excited, as if a new world appeared in front of their eyes.

Xu Yuanquan was the first to stand up squinting his little eyes, as if he was still settling accounts: "Marshal, there is no need to say anything, with so much money, we don't have to stay in this ravine in western Hunan, Wuhan , Nanjing, Shanghai, Beijing, the world is so big, we can fight wherever we want, and occupy wherever we want, everything from the North and the West will be cleaned up, Commander, just tell me, brothers, what should we do!"

When Xu Yuanquan said this, everyone immediately became excited.

"Yeah, actually, I've also read the information from Beiyang, but that's it. If it's so awesome, how could it be that the Marshal's trick was adopted at the Yudai Gate, and even the nest was given to us by the Tiger Youth Army." Song Haomin The older I get, the more my mind becomes more, and people naturally become slicker, and I don't forget to flatter Wang Zhenyu from time to time.

And Wang Zhenyu has a well-known heart, the youth army looks good, but in fact it is also the battle of Yudaimen that is famous all over the country, but what happened in that battle, Wang Zhenyu knows better than anyone else, it is completely at the right time and place And plus the super luck of winning the 500 million grand prize, it is not in line with the rules at all. As for winning Hongjiang, fighting Changde is not a tough battle. The youth army pulled out and opened up their battles to face Beiyang head-on. At present, it is indeed not Beiyang's opponent.

But Wang Zhenyu knew that morale could not be discouraged, and now is the time to cheer up, so he also pretended to approve and said: "History is written by the victors, and there are only two fates for soldiers. Either they will be successful and enjoy their old age in peace; or they will die in battle." Fulfilling other people's fame and fame for a lifetime, but our youth army has only one destiny, and that is victory, victory, and continuous victory!"

Yang Wangui hadn't found this feeling for a long time, he was the first to stand up, waved his fists and shouted: "Victory, victory!"

The generals were all excited: "Victory, victory!!!"

When eating at noon, Wang Zhenyu asked Ye Ziwen to arrange a large table of dishes in the kitchen, and rewarded the group of subordinates who were still excited.

The meeting continued in the afternoon. After a whole morning of flickering, it was time for something practical in the afternoon. A miniature South China sand table co-produced by the staff department and the operations department was carried into the conference room by eight staff officers.

The first thing in the afternoon meeting was that Minister of Armaments Ma Xicheng announced the latest army list and air force development plan, but the focus of everyone's attention was on the army. However, there is little interest in this kind of service that can only be used for reconnaissance and cannot be put into actual combat.

In fact, Wang Zhenyu has not yet thought about how to develop the air force, but since it is to prepare for the future war to protect the country, the air force may still be established.

Ma Xicheng's plan is terrifying, because once this plan is finally realized, it will upgrade the firepower configuration of the army's current combat units to another level.

And in all these plans, the most important point is the problem of artillery.

Artillery is the well-deserved king of the army, at least before tanks became the dominant force in land warfare, this is beyond doubt. In the era of the Republic of China, the outcome of a war was largely affected by the number of artillery on both sides. In other words , Although it has entered the era of hot weapons, the nature of war has not changed much at this stage, and the comparison is still about who kills more and faster.

Although Wang Zhenyu knew that the mode of warfare had undergone large-scale changes with the leap in military technology, he emphasized the so-called key strikes and precision strikes, but he also had to respect the reality, that is, in the early days of the Republic of China, the cannon was still the king. Times, World War I has proved this point.

So last night, Wang Zhenyu talked for a long time alone with Ma Xicheng, his elder brother Wang Zhenbang, and several senior engineers from the Anjiang Military Factory. The guns recommended today are the result of last night's discussion.

Except for Huang Shaohong, the head of the attendant office, Wang Chenhao, the deputy chief, and He Yingqin, the secretary who just took office, the other adjutants and secretaries were not allowed to enter the conference room, so Ma Xicheng, who rarely spoke on weekdays, could only personally discuss this matter by himself. Speech on the upgrade plan of firepower configuration: "According to the intelligence data we have collected, currently the most deployed artillery in China is as follows. The first one is the 75mm 14-diameter K-type mountain gun, produced by the Shanghai factory in 1905. The gun mount is Two-wheel single-leg type, the breech block is a horizontal wedge type. The total length of the row is 4600 mm (the total length of the row is 3230 mm), the total weight of the row is 405 kg (the total weight of the row is 386 kg), and it is carried by four horses or one horse. Drag. High and low shooting range -8 degrees to +15 degrees, 2 degrees on the left and right sides of the shooting range in the direction. The grenade used weighs 3.5 kg, the muzzle velocity (0 m/s), the maximum range is 4300 meters, and the effective range is 4000 meters. This gun is our current The military factory can produce about 180 units per year. Of course, the Luxembourgers helped us to make this output. According to the original plan for military expansion, each division-level combat unit should be equipped with 75 units. Mountain gun; now let’s look at the second type, the second type is 1913 mm) double-diameter field gun, produced by the Shanghai factory in 7595, and also manufactured by the Han factory in the same year. The gun mount is double-wheeled and single-legged, and the breech block is unknown The total length of the row is 1475mm, and the total weight of the row is 8kg. It is drawn by six horses. The maximum range is 16 meters. In terms of range and rate of fire, this 3.5-fold gun is better than the 6-fold gun, but the requirements for transportation are also much higher. As for the price, we have already It has come down. At present, each gun is 510 Chinese yuan, and the market price is about 6000 yuan. There is still no market for it. At present, the largest military factory in China, Hanyang Armory Factory, is manufacturing monthly when it is the most powerful. Thirty doors, but that was during the Revolution of 14. Now due to the loss of technicians and the shortage of funds, the annual output is only 14 to 57000 doors. The second paragraph) is now with the help of Luxembourg technicians. It can also be imitated, but it cannot be put into mass production, and the price is about 10 to 87000 Chinese yuan per door!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone whispered to each other and talked a lot, this cannon really eats money,
