The Republic of Heroes

Seeing that Yang Yuting refused to take her in for the first time, the middle-aged old Xi'er was very disappointed. When he heard that he pointed out a clear way for him, he couldn't help but feel refreshed.He had heard about the name of the Suidong Army in Yan Xishan's Military Governor's Office. It is said that this small force emerging along the Suifen River had defeated the Russians and Japanese successively. A major general and brigadier seems to be telling a legendary story, and his location in a remote country casts a veil of mystery on him.

However, the middle-aged old Xier still has his own ideas. What Yang Yuting pointed out to him is indeed a rare bright road. Will be well received by others, I am afraid it is not even the icing on the cake.On the other hand, the Suidong Army must be short of people for all start-ups. If you go by yourself, you may be able to get a good job in need.In my whole life, the first 30 years have been wasted, and the next 30 years must be a glorious scene no matter what.

At the stall where Old Xier was full of worries, Wu Xiaoliang and Zhang Xueliang were very busy. The last batch of ammunition was finally loaded on the truck and transported away. The two heaved a sigh of relief, and Zhang Xueliang was even more delighted. Refraining from self-control, wiped off the sweat on his face, and undid the discipline button.

"You're done, Weizhong, let's get drunk when we go back. Have a good drink! Before the winner was decided that night, I made you pee. This time, I can't let you go."

Wu Xiaoliang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Think about how to face the thunder and anger of Marshal Zhang when you go back."

One sentence hit Zhang Xueliang's weakness, and he felt a little bit in his heart, but he didn't want the three brothers-in-law to see his fear of his father.

"I have made such a contribution, how can the merit and demerit be offset?"

While the two of them were chatting with each other, they could hear a mouthful of old Shanxi vinegar.

"Excuse me, the two major generals."

Zhang Xueliang immediately turned his face when he heard it. When he was in the Marshal’s Mansion, he hated others to call him Young Marshal. The eldest son, the eldest young master, even Zhang Hanqing was fine. He couldn’t hear the title of Young Marshal because he didn’t want to live under the shadow of his father. .This time, Lao Xi didn't flatter him well, so he stepped on Mr. Zhang's tail.

"The munitions are all delivered, it's none of your business, what should you do, don't be an eyesore here." Zhang Xueliang sent him away impatiently, but Old Xier didn't do it for flattery or scolding He just came over to strike up a conversation, but he didn't know that his words offended this Young Marshal Zhang, so he could only accompany him in a low voice.

"Don't blame the two generals, Lao Xi can't speak, so I apologize." He bowed to the ground as he spoke, really humbled to the extreme.Wu Xiaoliang couldn't bear to see it, so he stretched out his hand to help.

"Sir, there's no need to do this, just say what you have to say."

Old Xier saw that Wu Xiaoliang had given him a step by helping him, and was overjoyed. It turned out that Brigadier Wu is still a kind person.

"Old Xi is telling the truth, he wants to join the Suidong Army."

"Huh?" Zhang Xueliang seemed to have heard the funniest joke, and burst out laughing with a "puchi". He didn't show such brazenness when he turned his back on the battlefield.

But Wu Xiaoliang asked solemnly: "I don't know what your name is, sir. What are your specialties?" He felt that since Yan Xishan could photograph him for the important event of receiving arms, then he must not be mediocre. When it came to Yang Yuting and himself, and he wanted to join the Suidong Army, he probably messed up his errands and didn't dare to go back and return, so he simply joined someone else.Now it is the time for Suidong Army to use talents eclecticly. If he is really talented, Suidong welcomes him with open arms.

Old Xi'er was overjoyed again, there is a door.

"Old Xier's surname is Tantai, his name is Jize, and his style name is Zhongwu. His ancestral home is in Pingyao, Shanxi Province, and he has been doing business for generations. If you say that my Tantai family is a small family, but my brother-in-law's family is very famous in Shanxi, it is Wanquan. Li Ziyong, the son of Li Jingxiu, a wealthy businessman in the county." He mentioned these relationships in order to prove that he has a family background in business, and that his family and the family he is married to are also big businessmen for generations, so as to attract him It is definitely a business that only makes money but does not lose money.

It turned out that this old man was called Tantai Jize, a good name.Wu Xiaoliang secretly praised that Suidong really lacks the support of a decent business family. If he can build up this relationship, it can add a little help to the development of Suidong, and Sun Jiayu will also have less pressure.No matter how much truth he said, Wu Xiaoliang still chose to trust unconditionally first.

"Since Brother Zhongwu intends to join Suidong and contribute to the construction of Suidong, how can Xiaoliang not welcome him? On behalf of Suidong, I welcome Brother Zhongwu to join."

As soon as Wu Xiaoliang said this, not only Zhang Xueliang was surprised, but even Tantai Jize couldn't believe it. He thought he was going to say something, but he didn't expect the young Lord of Suidong to agree without hesitation. , So I was stunned for a while, and after a while, I was ecstatic.

"Tantai Jize thanked the chief." Tantai Jize's words of a feudal warlord knocked on Zhang Xueliang's heart, making him envious. Take the main seat.

Wu Xiaoliang really wasn't used to addressing his subordinates with such a strong master-slave relationship. He had always been used to being called Brigadier Commander, Chief, General, or even his own name.But he didn't show any hesitation, but happily accepted the gift of the old Xi who had turned against him.For these extremely conservative children of Shanxi merchants, this method is their means of maintaining their subordinates, and in turn, it is also the fundamental principle of their allegiance to one side.

Wu Xiaoliang doesn't want to and can't change their inherent concepts. He can only accept them and try to reform them in the future.

Yang Yuting laughed, watching Wu Xiaoliang accept Tantai Jize, he was secretly happy, this kid Wu Weizhong, accepting Lao Xi is also equivalent to accepting the hatred of Yan Xishan, and he is becoming more and more isolated among the governors of the provinces, which is tantamount to sending him to Suidong again. A step closer to Fengtian.

Still having their own concerns, several people rushed to Qinhuangdao Railway Station with the ammunition convoy.After the empty carriages requisitioned at the station were hung on the special train, it was already late at night and early in the morning when the ammunition was completely transferred to the train.

An extra moment of delay would be more risky. After all, Qinhuangdao was within Yuguan, and if there was one event, the trip would be in vain, so the special train set fire overnight.

The train loaded with munitions, amidst the roar of the whistle, started slowly, accelerated, and left Qinhuangdao in the north, heading straight for Yuguan.

At ten o'clock in the morning, when the train passed Yuguan, the soldiers guarding the gate did not stop it, but let it pass happily. Originally, the guarding soldiers always followed the principle that it was easy to leave the customs and difficult to enter, not to mention that they recognized that there were two major generals on the special train. , where just much ado about nothing?

They didn't know that after the special train was let go, the Beijing government was furious, and Yan Xishan, the governor of Shanxi, was furious. Then a large number of officers were dismissed. This incident also had a far-reaching impact. The war launched against the South finally could not go on.

As a result, the domestic situation changed rapidly in all provinces like dominoes. First, Tan Yankai declared autonomy in Hunan, and once again put forward the slogan of Hunan people governing Hunan, demanding the expulsion of Wang Ruxian.
