Chapter 115 Listening to Hadith
Early this morning, Guan Xuqing had just gotten up and finished scrubbing.Bella, the dean of the German Military Academy and Chief of the German Army General Staff, brought more than a dozen outstanding army officers from the Qing Dynasty to the suite prepared for Guan Xuqing in Germany.

Perhaps in the past few days, Guan Xuqing only had time to meet these generals whom he had hand-picked to go to Germany that year only this morning.Many of them include Feng Xianghua, Zuo Zongtang's successor in his heart.

"See you, Your Majesty." More than a dozen Qing military officers wearing the uniforms of the German Army Academy knelt down in front of Guan Xuqing.

"This is not in the Qing Dynasty, I have followed the customs of the country. Don't be too polite, let's be flat." Guan Xuqing alone helped Feng Xianghua who was kneeling in the front.

After studying in Germany for three years, this 40-year-old man has not only made great progress in military theory, but also restrained his temper a lot. That violent temper is no longer visible.Taciturn, he always wins the championship in various competitions of the academy, and he is also the oldest general among the officers studying in Germany.Everyone affectionately called Big Brother Feng, isn't it? How many generals are left who participated in the suppression of the Taiping Army?Feng Xianghua is one of them.

Other Wang Feng, Fang Shizhen, Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, Zhang Xun, Cao Kun, Lu Rongting, Xu Shichang, Duan Zhigui, Zhao Bingjun, etc. also got up one after another.

Guan Xuqing listened carefully to Bella's detailed introduction of personal achievements. In fact, it was an introduction, but in fact, she kept praising everyone for their accomplishments. Whether it was excellent military skills or theoretical knowledge, it seemed that all of these people were excellent. He is a character who can stand alone.

Individual study subjects are different, and Guan Xuqing already had a detailed division of labor before going abroad.For example, the purpose of Wang Feng, known as Wang Crazy, came here to learn special operations, and his task after returning home was to organize a special force.

And Zhao Bingjun, who is known as the "Great Demon Fox" by later generations, has studied spy skills and management. After he returns to China, he will have a contest of intelligence and courage with the "Chrysanthemum" agency.

Others have learned to fight in the mountains, some have learned to fight in the plains, and so on.

After the introduction, Bella also left first with Zhiqu.In the room, apart from Wang Yu, the personal leader of the Imperial Forest Army who was beside Guan Xuqing, there were only a dozen or so officers who were studying abroad.

"Now we are the only ones left. You don't have to be so cautious. In the past few years, you must have learned real talents and knowledge in Germany. You have also learned a lot. You can speak freely about your opinions on the country. Today, no matter what you say is right or wrong. Wrong, I will pardon you and others without guilt." Guan Xuqing said while sitting on the sofa.

At this time, Zhao Bingjun stood up first, and raised a standard military salute to Guan Xuqing: "Your Majesty, I have read all kinds of books in Germany in the past few years. I have some opinions on the several army battles in Europe, and maybe I will have some ideas for us in the future." It was used by the Qing Dynasty when it fought against other countries."

"Oh? Tell me." Guan Xuqing said with interest.

"In the previous wars, the emphasis was on the formation of troops and the construction of positions. There are strong and permanent firepower points, strong logistical support, and reserves. Such positions cannot be conquered. But now, the development of artillery is quite fast. Hurry up, no matter how strong the firepower is, it may be directly destroyed by artillery from a distance of several kilometers or even further, so I feel that today's war is better than anyone else's concealment and cover-up. To be discovered is to be wiped out." Zhao Bingjun Said unhurriedly.

Guan Xuqing patted the armrest of the sofa lightly with his fingers, and looked at Zhao Bingjun with satisfaction: "Bingjun, I'm so relieved that you can see this. But how do the troops hide it? Tell me about it."

Zhao Bingjun continued: "I learned spy skills in Germany. I only learned how to detect opponents and how to hide my identity. But how to hide a large number of troops has to be asked by Madman Wang. His special forces won the academy competition last year." Got No.1."

"Oh? Hehe, madman Wang, don't bring this madness to Germany, making the Germans think that I am crazy like all the officers of the Qing Dynasty gave you." Guan Xuqing joked to Wang Feng.

Wang Feng was originally a rough person, not very good at talking.Being teased by Zhao Bingjun and Guan Xuqing blushed, not knowing how to deal with it.He faltered and said: "Reporting to the emperor, I am only proficient in concealment techniques for small-scale troops of dozens of people. This is like Liu Junmen with 5 troops. I will not hide."

"Hehe, in two months, everyone will return to the country after studying. You can speak freely about what you think about the domestic army. The Qing Dynasty does not belong to me alone, nor does it belong to the Manchu family. It belongs to our Chinese sons and daughters. How to make the Qing Dynasty strong, how to make the Qing Dynasty stand firm, I will do it." Guan Xuqing did not make things difficult for Wang Feng, and said to everyone present.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Everyone present knelt down and shouted in unison.

"You don't need to talk about it all. You are all soldiers who have studied new war theories in Germany, not those corrupt and scumbags from the imperial court in China. Xianghua, your father fought well in Burma. What do you think after returning to China?" Guan Xuqing admired this brave and strategic general very much.

"I am willing to continue to be the pioneer under my father's command, to open up the territory for the emperor and create a prosperous situation in the Qing dynasty." Feng Xianghua is not like Zhao Bingjun and other young people who are quick to accept new ideas, and he is still old when answering the emperor's questions. He fell to his knees honestly.

Guan Xuqing helped Feng Xianghua up and continued: "I mean, if all the army of the Qing Dynasty were handed over to you, how would you arrange it?"

"Your Majesty, what virtue can I do? I dare not." Feng Xianghua spoke nervously and incoherently.

"Don't be nervous. I didn't hand over the troops to you. I just said that if I hand them over to you, what would you do?" Guan Xuqing continued to ask with a smile.

Feng Xianghua settled down, thought for a moment and said: "I feel that our military equipment in the Qing Dynasty is now world-class. Although our individual combat capability is not as good as that of the German soldiers, we should be invincible in Asia. It's just that the military establishment is slightly inappropriate. , with 5 horses as a unit, it is inconvenient to command during coordinated operations. In addition, the generals of each unit will inevitably be suspected of cronyism after leading troops for a long time. Therefore, I believe that we should follow the example of Germany and use divisions as combat units. One reorganized division consists of two brigades Composition, a brigade is composed of three regiments, a regiment is composed of three battalions, and so on. The 50 divisions of the National Standing Army are enough to dominate Asia. Germany currently has only 24 standing divisions, and the United Kingdom has only 12 standing divisions. "

Guan Xuqing nodded. In fact, he had long wanted to change the current military establishment.At the beginning, in order to streamline the army and take back the military power, a few reliable people were selected to hand over the military power to them, and such an army establishment was tailored for them.But now there are more than 40 new troops, and it is not at ease to hand over these troops to Shui, so there is the current dilemma of being trained by other military sects.But this kind of troop formation was proposed by myself, and it is not easy to overthrow it and start over. Now it is better to let these talented students who have returned from Germany speak out.

"Hehe, not bad. After returning to China, I will hand over this matter to you. In addition, every 10 divisions are used as a group army. In Qing Dynasty, we can divide them into four groups: Southeast, Northeast, Southwest, and Northwest. There are no such divisions in non-war periods. Army generals, the troops are only responsible for defense, and I personally appoint army generals during the war.”

"Your majesty is wise! I obey the order."

"You are all the elites of the Qing Dynasty, and you are all the wealth of the Qing Dynasty. The court paid such a high price for you to study abroad. It is not for you to return to the country to be a commando. It is for you to learn what you have learned. , What you see is applied to our Daqing, making our Daqing stronger, understand?"

"According to the order."

Throughout the morning, Guan Xuqing talked about everything with several generals studying abroad.Guan Xuqing also revealed the relevant plan to fight against Japan, and Wang Feng already regretted because he went to study in Germany and missed the war with the British in Burma.I'm afraid I missed another war in these two months.

No matter what Guan Xuqing says, he looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. If you don't take me back, I will sneak onto the warship.Anyway, what I learned is special operations, and I will try it on the emperor's warship first.

This aroused Guan Xuqing's interest, and he turned to Zhang Yu and said, "Do you have the confidence to prevent this lunatic Wang from entering my cabin?"

Zhang Yu blushed, looked at the arrogant Wang Feng and said, "No matter how bad I am, I will swear to protect the emperor's safety, not to mention a living person, even a fly cannot fly into the emperor's cabin."

Guan Xuqing said to Wang Feng again: "Crazy Wang, I think it's better to forget it. Zhang Yu and his group of Imperial Forest Army did not attack lightly or severely. If you are really disabled, all my money will be wasted."

"Your Majesty, just look at it, let alone the 200 people. Last year, I took the actual combat test in this building. With 3000 people deployed, I led 50 people to break through easily and decapitated the opponent's general. If I really After entering the emperor's cabin, the emperor will definitely take me back." Wang Feng said confidently.

Except for Guan Xuqing and Zhang Yu, everyone else present had a deep understanding of Crazy Wang's abilities. Although they didn't know much about the Imperial Forest Army around the emperor, they were definitely much worse than Crazy Wang. The imperial forest army has been lacking in training for a long time, and they are also too old.

Guan Xuqing clapped the case and said: "Okay, Crazy Wang, I want to see your skills. It's agreed, if you can't come back, I will punish you heavily. If you really come in, I will not only take you back but also let you stay in the country." For all the troops in the country, you choose the special forces you need, and all the troops you choose will let the local troops let you go, and all the troops will make way for you."

Wang Feng's eyes flashed: "Really? Your Majesty, you are not allowed to lie. I will go to prepare first. The day you leave Germany is the day I enter your cabin. You don't need to inform me when to leave. I will let you Zhao Bingjun helped me to investigate, that kid was born to be a spy, and he is very good at collecting intelligence."

Zhao Bingjun glared at Wang Feng but did not speak.

"Hahaha, interesting and interesting. I want to see what you bastards have learned in Germany. Alright, let's all kneel down." Guan Xuqing waved his hands.
