Heavy Industry Empire

"Generals, I haven't seen you for a long time and you are still so handsome," Jia Cai cupped his hands and said with a smile.

Zhu Yupu waved his hands quickly: "Officer Jia is joking, he is already a lost dog now,"

"The generals are joking, you are holding a heavy soldier and waiting for a price, you are a sweet potato,"

"Oh, hehe," Zhu Yupu laughed.

Closer to home, Jia Cai took out the letter Liu Tianling wrote to Zhu Yupu from his pocket and handed it to him.

Zhu Yupu was silent after watching it.

Jia Cai said: "My original intention was to let you be the first staff officer after you came here, but Commander Liu was afraid that some people would not be convinced, so he arranged for you to be the deputy chief staff officer, not to mention the salary. Fenghou, after conquering Jinan, all the original real estate will be returned to the general, but the original commander of the field means to buy it according to the market price, and then distribute it to the people."

Zhu Yupu nodded: "The conditions given by Commander Liu are very loyal. I am also 40 years old. I know my own value. It is nothing more than being mixed up in the melee of warlords. I am far behind Mr. Zhuge Bai and the others. , let’s arrange the [-] army commanders in a unified way, I’m not asking, as for the land in Jinan is about [-] mu, except for the [-] mu of rented land, let’s distribute the rest to the common people.”

Jia Cai said with a smile: "Don't worry, generals, you don't need so many. Your family has a large population, and you can't all come out to join the army. You have to live. Sell two thousand acres, and the rest will belong to your family. I will give you five tractors. That's it." You don’t have to worry about farming once you come here.”

Zhu Yupu shook his hand: "I'm really not interested in farming, it's all managed by my father,"

"Don't worry, General Chu, after following Commander Liu, he will definitely become famous all over the world and create a career as a good man," Jia Cai said.

Zhu Yupu slapped the table: "Okay, it's settled, and immediately ordered the whole army to set off and rush to Yanzhou,"

Three miles outside Yanzhou City, Liu Tianling, Huawei, and Zhao Lianyi brought hundreds of other guards. There were no chariots. The officers rode horses and the soldiers walked.

Zhao Lianyi kept watching with binoculars, and at this time the scouts had already arrived, "Report to the commander, Zhu Yupu's army has arrived ten miles away,"

"Okay, pass my order to let them come directly, and then the troops will be placed in the Yanzhou barracks," Liu Tianling said.

Zhao Lianyi said: "Commander, isn't this a little risky? If Zhu Yupu is cheating, wouldn't it be a chance for him?"

Hua Wei laughed and said, "Haha, you're actually afraid too. Where's the courage to fight on the streets?"

"It's not fear, it's caution," Zhao Lianyi retorted.

"That's right, but the possibility of Zhu Yupu playing tricks is zero. Zhu Yupu has seen our strength and understands the power of our armored forces. On this plain, fifty tanks can defeat his [-] infantry without breaking a sweat. What's more, there are [-] elite cavalry, why do you think he would do this? Strength is the only thing that restrains strength, not virtue. If there is no strength, Jia Cai will not surrender to us even if Jia Cai speaks his lips.

After waiting for about half an hour, Zhu Yupu's team arrived. The team was very long and slow. There were about a dozen canvas off-road vehicles in front of them. At first glance, they were imported from the United States. Although they were old, they were very powerful. It was very slow, and there were some old trucks behind them, with canvas roofs, and soldiers in earth-gray military uniforms inside, but there were very few trucks, and the few were pitiful. The [-] troops were basically on foot.

There are more than 1000 cavalry, but the horses are not very energetic, and they are cruising around.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Zhu Yupu ordered the army to stop three miles away. Jia Cai and Zhu Yupu were in the same car and said, "Let's go, generals, and meet Commander Liu. will disappoint you,"

Zhu Yupu smiled and said, "Okay, I still have something to ask, just to talk to Commander Liu."

The jeep stopped not far from Liu Tianling. Jia Cai and Zhu Yupu opened the door and got out of the car slowly. Liu Tianling quickly greeted him, "Welcome, welcome,"

Zhu Yupu hurriedly said: "Commander Lao Liu went out of the city to meet him, Chu is ashamed to do so."

"General Chu speaks seriously. It's admirable to be able to do such a careless act," Liu Tianling carefully looked at Zhu Yupu, who was already around 40 years old, and his face was full of weather and wrinkles, compared to warlords. , more like a farmer, with a straight back.

Zhu Yupu smiled and said, "I'm ashamed to say that I have a few small requests to join your army, and I hope Commander Liu can fulfill them."

"Oh, just talk about it," Liu Tianling asked.

Liu Tianling and Zhu Yupu walked side by side, followed by Huawei, Jiacai, Zhao Lianyi and others.

"The first request is that Zhang Zongchang is my elder brother. After Jinan was taken down, Commander Liu held his hands high and let him live," Zhu Yupu said.

Liu Tianling waved his hand: "Needless to say, I'm not the one who will kill everything. Who can clean himself in troubled times? After taking Jinan, all the family property of old warlord Zhang will be kept, and he won't be touched at all."

"So, I thank you. The second article, I heard that the commander is very good at agriculture. Wenshang is my hometown, but after the war, the people are much poorer. The commander should think of a way to see if we can let Wenshang To live a good life for the people above is also what I asked for for my hometown, "

"This is something that should be done. Since you brought it up, I will treat it specially. Now I can give you a promise. In at most three years, most of the people in Wenshang will be able to eat meat and build tile-roofed houses," Liu Tianling said. He readily agreed.

Zhu Yupu said again: "The third one is a bit troublesome."

"It's okay, let's talk,"

Zhu Yupu called a hundred soldiers over with a wave of his hand. His soldiers wore old military uniforms, old padded jackets, cloth shoes with laminated soles, leggings, and ordinary cloth hats. The guns are all made in Hanyang.

"The commander also saw that the 3 people, except for some artillery and cavalry, are mostly equipped with such equipment. Although I will be a staff officer after I say it, I hope the commander can give them a good home. It's not easy,"

"A [-]-strong army requires a lot of military resources and equipment, but don't worry, even if I take out my meal money, I will also change the soldiers' clothes. Jia Cai, call the logistics department," Liu Tianling said.

Jia Cai quickly called over to the logistics department, and Liu Tianling arranged and said, "Arrange production immediately, [-] sets of military uniforms, and one set of single-pack winter clothes.

Two pairs of military cloth shoes per person, remember to register the size and number of each person’s feet, the ones that need to fit, one pair of stab-proof military boots per person, the military salary will be paid for three months first, and all weapons and equipment will be replaced after they are adapted.”

Zhu Yupu was a little surprised, and Liu Tianling asked: "You are satisfied with this arrangement. It happens that the staff department is in charge of logistics, and you will supervise it yourself. If it is not in place, you can report it to me directly."

"I'm very satisfied. It's just that the commander is too anxious to make such an arrangement. Liu Wantao's clothes will take a long time to make."

Jia Cai said with a smile: "Don't worry about Staff Chu, we use machines to produce, and [-] workers use machines to produce, about a month is enough, not to mention we have some stocks."

"Hey, the era of the old warlords is outdated. The new generation adopts industrialized mass production. Now most of the local clothes are made by women in the village, and the shoes are the same. They don't know what industrialized production is. People always think that only the industrialized countries of the West will take this kind of approach."

Liu Tianling smiled and said: "Slowly you will see the advancement of our National Defense Army. I forgot to mention just now that these [-] soldiers will be reorganized into mechanized infantry, which means that everyone will ride on military trucks."

Zhu Yupu was even more surprised: "Doesn't this require thousands of trucks?"

"Yes, we have this capability. You may not know it yet. We have already formed an air force with hundreds of real planes," Jia Cai said confidently.

As soon as Zhu Yupu's army arrived at Liu Tianling, he immediately made careful arrangements. The convenience of boarding, lodging, military uniform and military pay was the same as that of the original army. His family was equipped with carriages and horses, etc., and Zhu Yupu was replaced with a new off-road vehicle, and he was appointed as the deputy chief of staff.

Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Originally, the young marshal planned to celebrate this Lantern Festival. The young marshal by the Daming Lake was singing and dancing upstairs. The young marshal was holding a reception. blocked.

"Young Marshal is entertaining guests upstairs, there is something to wait,"

This councilor is on fire, "disperse, urgent military situation,"

The guards really didn't dare to stop the councilor, so they let him go upstairs. In the private room, the young commander was drinking red wine with some young men and beautiful women. Everyone was drinking and talking about state affairs.

The councilor came up, with an anxious expression on his face, and entered the room without knocking on the door.

The young marshal looked displeased: "You have lost your composure. As a soldier, you must not be surprised,"

"The lesson of the young marshal is that there is an important military report," the councilor said.

The young marshal did not mean to end the reception: "Let's talk, we are all our own people,"

The councilor took out a telegram: "Zhu Yupu and this morning led an army of [-] to surrender to the Lunan National Defense Army,"

"What," the young marshal was shocked, and the goblet in his hand and the valuable red wine inside fell to the ground with a bang.

"Asshole, why did this morning's incident not be reported until now,"

The councilor was speechless.

All the drinkers saw something was wrong and knew that today's drink would not be enough, so they all hurriedly left.

The young marshal said to himself: "My military salary of one hundred thousand oceans, I killed Zhu Yupu today and cheated my money."

The councilor looked at the young marshal with a look of surprise. The old handsome Northeast King loves to swear at people, and he can swear at everyone, but the young marshal claims that civilized people seldom swear. I lost my composure, everyone is waiting for you in the conference room, let's go back and discuss countermeasures."

"All right,"

The young marshal returned angrily, hurried back to the meeting,
