Since the Songhu battlefield announced a ceasefire on March 3, the Nanjing central government immediately formed a group to Shanghai for peace, and the Chinese team never mobilized any war. Since then, the negotiating delegations sent by the two countries entered a lengthy negotiation stage under the mediation of Britain, the United States, France, Italy and other countries.

Faced with the aggressive and powerful attitude of the invaders, the Nanjing government once again chose to give in and compromise. The tragic Battle of Songhu stopped in the grief of countless Chinese people.

Both the military and political parties of Zhejiang Province, which have been in constant internal strife, were not in the mood to hold a spring exercise according to the scheduled plan. It was publicly explained to the public that it was necessary to formulate a more reasonable and complete provincial military reorganization plan, streamline military administration, and be determined to innovate to enhance the combat effectiveness of the security forces in the province. The real reason was that Hangzhou was too close to Shanghai, and Zhejiang military and political officials were worried that large-scale spring exercises would anger the Japanese.

On March 9, the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway was reopened, and the Qingshiqiao Inspection Station built for 15,000 oceans was also revoked. After receiving a generous reward, the security forces stationed in and outside Hangzhou successively evacuated and returned to the original defense zone.

On March 10, the direct regiment of the Zhejiang Western Security Command followed the commander Fang Youchun back to Quzhou. Only Wu Ming's teaching team received the order for no reason and urgently went to the Hangzhou West Military Camp to carry out the mission.

On the morning of March 11, Wu Ming inspected the sealed fortifications for the last time and checked the fields and ditches restored for the villagers. Then, after farewell to thousands of fellow villagers in Dingjia Village, he left the Qingshi Bridge position.

The West Military Camp in Hangzhou is located in the northeast corner of West Lake, between Wulin Road and West Lake, and is officially named Zhejiang Army Prison. This place was originally the location of Dali Temple of the Southern Song Dynasty. Legend has it that Yue Fei was executed at Fengbo Pavilion in Dali Temple. After that, the Qing Dynasty built an inspection commission to imprison important prisoners. A Biao battalion was connected to the south and the east. In the early years of the Republic of China, the General Command of the Zhejiang Army expanded it into a military prison, and the Biao battalion on the edge was also expanded into the Xida camp of the Hangzhou garrison troops.

Wu Ming drove his Dodge car and carried Dai Ziran and Steve two military medical officers. They arrived early. Seeing the new deputy director of Zhejiang Security Department, Liu Rulin, training section chief and security division chief Ma Zhizhai and others greeted at the gate of the military camp, they immediately stopped the car and stopped the engine, got out of the car and saluted, and reported loudly to Liu Rulin and Ma Zhizhai with a smile on their faces.

Liu Rulin signaled the adjutant to help Wu Ming drive the car into Xidaying, holding Wu Ming's hand, and explaining the reason to leave him temporarily as he walked: "This is the barracks of the teaching regiment directly under our security department. The newly built training facilities on the playground are all built according to your standards and requirements. However, our officers and soldiers found it too difficult and said it was unrealistic and were unwilling to practice. So after discussing with Brother Ma and I, after obtaining the consent of your commander, I will temporarily leave you and your teaching regiment for a while and guide the training of our teaching regiment."

Wu Ming was quite surprised after hearing this, and pointed at Ma Zhizhai and Fan Chunlin, who were walking behind, and said, "Aren't Brother Ma and others here?"

Liu Rulin and Ma Zhizhai were quite embarrassed and smiled and didn't know how to tell Wu Ming.

Fan Chunlin, who had just changed into major uniforms, saw Wu Ming staring at him, had to bite the bullet and go forward to explain: "The teaching regiment has not been formed yet. Currently, there is only one battalion of troops. Most of the officers and soldiers are veterans drawn from the regiments directly under the security department, and most of them are locals in Hangzhou. Many officers are still children of official families, so I can't command them!"

"Hmm!? What position are you now?" Wu Ming's face turned bad.

"Battery Commander, Battalion Commander of the First Battalion of the Teaching Corps, but the deputy of the regiment commander have not even had a shadow yet. I, the battalion commander, have no use for speaking!"

Fan Chunlin was also very frustrated and felt uncomfortable. He was panicked when he saw Wu Ming being angry. He had been complacent about his transfer to the provincial capital and being promoted. He did not know that the direct teaching group with high expectations would be like this.

"well--"

Wu Ming was not angry, but just sighed a long time and turned to Liu Rulin and Ma Zhizhai: "Two brothers, you know that the veterans in Zhejiang are already unbearable and it is more difficult for new recruits to adapt to the new training method with strict requirements. What's more, you want to form a model teaching team for the whole province's military. You are actually... pretending to be confused with your understanding!"

Liu Rulin and Ma Zhizhai were very embarrassed. They all knew that there was no good source of troops in other regions in Zhejiang except for southern Zhejiang and western Zhejiang. However, western Zhejiang was the front line of encirclement and suppression, and it was also the area that was focused on this reorganization. The reason why the commander of western Zhejiang security guard Fang Youchun hurriedly led the team back was to form the second security division in Zhejiang according to the latest instructions of the Security Department and the CSRC's organizational structure. It can be said that western Zhejiang, which has the best source of troops, can no longer be expected. Only by recruiting new soldiers from southern Zhejiang, can the work of recruiting troops to southern Zhejiang is still on paper. The security guard, which is suffering from the pain of major personnel changes, can stabilize before it can be launched.

In fact, Wu Ming knew this very well. In order to avoid embarrassing everyone, he directly asked to visit the newly built training facilities. After walking around, he was quite satisfied. He stopped and asked Liu Rulin and Ma Zhizhai: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Liu Rulin waited for this sentence of Wu Ming and made a request directly: "I originally wanted you to lead your teaching team and Fan Chunlin's first battalion to train together for a period of time so that the officers and soldiers of our teaching regiment would be open to their eyes, but now it seems that it is better for you to be responsible for the overall training temporarily."

"ah!?"

Wu Ming suddenly became alert: "Brother Liu, I'll talk ugly things ahead. I can't stay in Hangzhou for a long time. I'll have to go back to western Zhejiang. It's okay to have a few days of discussion together, but it won't work for a long time. I'll have to rush back to defend the elders of my hometown!"

Ma Zhizhai immediately lowered his face: "You are afraid that we will annex your teaching team, are you?"

Wu Ming immediately waved his hand: "Where? Without Brother Ma's support and care, there wouldn't be today's teaching team... And Brother Liu, both of them are diligent and open-minded people. I can trust them. I never thought that the two brothers would do dirty things like annexing friendly forces, such as having a son without anass, which is absolutely impossible! I'm right?"

Ma Zhizhai and Liu Ru did not expect that Wu Ming was so scoundrel, so they said to death. The dozen or so captains around him were interesting and couldn't help laughing out loud. It was ridiculous. After all, the Wu Ming teaching team, which annexed the powerful horses, was the thing that the entire security department wanted to do the most but could not do. Everyone was tacitly aware of this.

Ma Zhizhai knew Wu Ming's stubborn personality well and shook his head repeatedly and couldn't say anything. Liu Rulin changed his previous kindness, took a step forward, and seriously warned Wu Ming:

"No one is trying to make you think of the teaching team, but I also talk about the ugly things ahead. You must help our teaching regiment first battalion complete the first stage of training in the shortest time, when will the task be completed, and when will you be allowed to go back, otherwise you will not think about anything. Even if I force your troops, who dares to do anything to me?"

Although Wu Ming was unhappy, he knew that his arms could not force his thighs. He pondered for a moment: "Okay, but I have two conditions that I must be satisfied."

"Tell me!"

Liu Rulin didn't say he agreed, nor did he refuse to agree. He stared at Wu Ming without blinking.

Wu Ming had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, the first condition is that I must have the greatest rights during this period of training, including the formulation of training plans, the power to implement training and the right to punish; secondly, my brother's teaching team has no money, and the ammunition has been consumed in recent training, and I need to obtain enough supplies."

Liu Rulin smiled angry: "You grandson, you have obtained 120,000 oceans and two batches of ammunition supplies from the provincial government, security department, and other channels in the past month. All of you have purchased supplies to transport them back to Quzhou. Do you think I don't know? A week ago, you once again purchased steel, copper, cloth, military shoes and other materials worth 100,000 oceans worth of steel, copper, cloth, military shoes and other materials back to Quzhou, and squeezed fifty war horses from me. Where are they now?"

"Ah! You still dare to cry in front of me now. Let me tell you that there is no way! Apart from routinely bearing the military pay from your troops, I will never give you an extra copper coin!"

Seeing Liu Rulin gritting his teeth, Wu Ming had to give in: "Okay, money is something outside of it, so I won't say it. Brother Liu, you should share some of the newly purchased American-made guns and ammunition for me, right? Just treat it as my hard-earned money, what do you think?"

Liu Rulin almost jumped up: "Don't even think about it!"

"This is not possible, that is not possible. You should have some compensation, right? If you really can't bear to leave that batch of American machinery, it should be OK to allocate ten or eight light and heavy machine guns to me? My teaching team's 500-600 troops still have no new heavy machine guns. Brother, you can't watch me on the battlefield, because of the lack of firepower, run around the mountain, right? This really insults the overall reputation of my Zhejiang Army!" Wu Ming retreated to the next best.

Seeing Wu Ming's complacent look, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Ma Zhizhai and Fan Chunlin were even more happy. They had experienced Wu Ming's face astray and had been having a headache for Wu Ming's stool-like requests. Now it's the provincial security department that it's his turn to ask for Wu Ming. If Wu Ming doesn't take the opportunity to make a big fuss, he will probably not be the familiar Wu Ming. Therefore, they all want to see what Liu Rulin should do when he faces Wu Ming who is plotting against him.

As expected, Liu Rulin finally chose to make concessions. Although he said he would make a decision based on Wu Ming's training effect, everyone knows that with Liu Rulin's personality and deep personal relationships with Wu Ming, as long as Liu Rulin does not refuse on the spot, in the end, no matter what, Liu Rulin, who has mastered the training and equipment supply of the security forces across the province, will give Wu Ming some benefits.
