The stationing of the First Gendarmerie Regiment of Renqiu Barracks was a good thing for the Cadet Brigade and the First Gendarmerie Regiment. The competition between Zhang Dali and Shan Renxiong set a tone for the relationship between the two parties, which directly led to The officers and soldiers from both sides were training with great enthusiasm, and they obviously wanted to compete with each other.
That night, Ouyang Yun returned to the military camp and saw a neatly-dressed troop in the camp, and asked Li Tieshu, "Here they are."
Li Tieshu smiled and told the story about the martial arts competition. Ouyang Yun's eyes lit up and he said, "Is there any reward for Zhang Dali?"
"award."
"Of course I will be rewarded. It will bring glory to our cadet brigade."
Li Tieshu touched his head: "It's just a competition between friendly forces. If you give a reward, isn't it a disguised form of encouragement for everyone to fight for victory? If Zhang Zhen and the others find out, it will be suspected of being a villain."
Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "Isn't it good to fight for victory? Don't you think this will increase everyone's enthusiasm for training? You can't reward them openly, but secretly. Of course, at least let our soldiers know that prizes can be obtained It has to be a little special, like giving me your signature pistol or something."
"My signature pistol is not worth giving to you. You are the 'anti-Japanese heroes', so let's decide like this. By the way, how is the situation in the steel factory?"
"Yes, the quality of the steel is not bad, and a few workers are very smart. If I give it a week, I can let it go."
"I heard that General Zhang's troops are fighting with the Japanese in Tianjin. I wonder if there will be a war."
"I can't fight, but..." Ouyang Yun said and suddenly laughed,
Li Tieshu looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why are you so happy?"
Ouyang Yun looked at the officers and soldiers of the 1st Gendarmerie Regiment who were still training not far away, and said: "Didn't the Ho-Mei Agreement stipulate that the national army cannot enter North China? This 1st Gendarmerie Regiment is the national army, right?"
Li Tieshu nodded: "They are still the elite of the national army."
"Do you think Chiang Kai-shek dares to start a war with the Japs now?"
"You don't dare, otherwise He Yingqin wouldn't have signed the Ho-Mei Agreement."
"Then what do you mean by Chiang Kai-shek sending a military police regiment to Renqiu at this time?"
"Maybe he is interested in Renqiu's oil."
"The reason must be this, but the question is, can the little devil make him get what he wants? Hehe, I can conclude that the main reason why Chiang Kai-shek sent this elite is to mix things up, control the student brigade through the Military Police Regiment, and then Indirectly controlling Renqiu, if my guess is correct, in the next step, our student brigade may be used as a bargaining chip to separate from 29, and you may have the opportunity to become a warlord."
Li Tieshu thought about it and felt that it was indeed possible. He smiled and said: "How could it be me? If a warlord really emerges, it will be you."
Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "Neither the Japanese nor the National Government want me to occupy Renqiu, but it will be different if you do it. I just don't know what Commander Song will do, but no matter what, I will Jiang is destined to steal the chicken but lose the rice this time."
Outsiders don’t know Chiang Kai-shek’s true intention of sending the Military Police Regiment to Renqiu, but the development of the current situation has confirmed Ouyang Yun’s speculation. After the three-way struggle between the Nationalist Government, the Japanese Government and the 29th Army, the Cadet Brigade was indeed It was separated from the 29th Army and became an independent division, and Renqiu also became a "Special Economic Zone" independent of the Yicha Political Committee.
At this time, more than three weeks had passed since the First Gendarmerie Regiment entered Renqiu.
The establishment of the Yicha Political Committee was the result of the second compromise between the National Government and Japan. The day after the first military police regiment entered Renqiu, Dofeihara went to He Yingqin to issue a strongly worded protest, and in the afternoon, 15 aircraft were transferred Planes flamboyantly dropped a large number of leaflets calling for "North China Autonomy" over Pingjin. Then, on behalf of North China, Gao Qiaotan hoarded troops and proposed the "North China Financial Emergency Defense Outline" to Song Zheyuan, demanding a ban on the transportation of cash to the south and the lifting of Zhang Zizhong's Otherwise, all the consequences of the Tianjin incident will be borne by the 29th Army. The next day, Nanjiro issued combat order No. 751, ordering the mixed independent brigade troops to be deployed at Gubeikou, Shanhaiguan and other places, and to send the cruiser Kuma and destroyer Qingdao to the port of Lushun. They were all heading to Dagukou in Tanggu, Tianjin, and sent two squadrons of fighter planes to take turns hovering over Peiping to show off their force. At the same time, Japanese spies and military police stationed in Peiping began to arrest anti-Japanese activists.
For a time, Pingjin and Tianjin were shrouded in the clouds of war. The people all felt difficulty breathing, and the war seemed to be about to break out.
Forced by the despotic power of the Japanese, first Song Zheyuan made concessions and strictly ordered Zhang Zizhong to withdraw from the guard camp; then He Yingqin started negotiations with Doihara with the help of representatives from the United Kingdom and the United States. The result was that North China's autonomy was recognized in exchange for Japan's cancellation of military operations. , release the arrested persons, use the method submitted by Song Zheyuan to slow down the legal currency reform in North China, and establish a separate special economic zone in Renqiu. Japanese and British and American businessmen enjoy the same treatment and can jointly participate in the development of Renqiu. When the candidates for the political chief and the division commander of the independent military division were selected, the Nationalist Government proposed that Zhang Zhen should be appointed as the commander. Of course, the 29th Army supported Ouyang Yun, but the Japanese did not know what they thought, but they actually agreed with the 29th Army's proposal, and finally decided on: Ouyang Yun. Yun serves as director of Qiu Jingsui and commander of the academy division, Zhang Zhen serves as training director and commander of the 1st academy brigade, Ji Xingwen serves as chief of staff and commander of the 2nd academy brigade, Li Tieshu serves as deputy division commander and commander of the 3rd academy brigade, Guo Biao He was the deputy chief of staff and concurrently served as the commander of Qiu Security Guards. Interestingly, Pan Yugui, whom Ouyang Yun hated the most, was also squeezed in by Song Zheyuan and the Japanese and served as the deputy director of Jingsui.
Ouyang Yun's appointment was signed by the Executive Yuan and the Military Commission. On the day when the two appointment letters were delivered to him at the same time, he went to Nanyuan to seek an audience with Song Zheyuan.
For such a result, Song Zheyuan felt severe physical pain, but the situation was stronger than others, so he had no choice but to face Ouyang Yun with a forced smile.
No one understands Song Zheyuan's mood at this time better than Ouyang Yun, so he expressed his loyalty as soon as they met, saying that the 29th Army and the Army's shares in Renqiu Enterprise will not be less. In addition, the Second Ordnance Factory produced The armaments will also be given priority to the 38th Division stationed around Tianjin.
This was actually the most painful thing for Song Zheyuan. After hearing his assurance, his eyebrows relaxed a lot and he encouraged: "Ouyang, Renqiu is now the territory of the Military Academy. It's good for you to go ahead and do it. Just do it well." , I and all the officers and men of the 29th Army will stand behind you to support you."
Ouyang Yun nodded, thanked him solemnly, and then began to complain: "Military seat, what's going on? Renqiu is our Chinese territory, why do we let the Japanese point our fingers? That Pan Yugui is really... They have established a 'Japan Friendship Economic Aid Group to China'. What kind of economic aid group is clearly here to plunder our resources?"
After all, Pan Yugui was a puppet of the Japanese. Song Zheyuan finally saw his true face clearly. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Ouyang, you can sit in your current position, and you have to thank the Japanese for their help. In terms of economic construction, the Japanese are indeed better than us. I have already inquired and found out that those in the economic aid group are indeed businessmen, and many of them have successful experience in setting up factories in Japan..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ouyang Yun: "Military, you know that I have always had the same attitude towards the Japanese. I deserve to be killed. It is impossible for me to cooperate with the Japanese. Humph, that Doihara is afraid The Nationalist Government controlled Ren Qiu's oil resources, which allowed us to take advantage. How could he really want to help? You know, military commander, they and Chiang Kai-shek's people almost wiped me out in Hong Kong. Yes, but I am lucky, so their wishful thinking failed."
Song Zheyuan nodded and said: "You are right. If it weren't for the struggle between the Japanese and Chiang Kai-shek, we would not have been able to take advantage of this. Ouyang, I can rest assured that the Xuebing Brigade and Ren Qiu will be left to you. It's just yours." Our temper needs to be changed. Our current strength is too weak to defend North China, so for now we should focus on accumulating strength through patience. We should be patient with the Japanese for the time being."
Ouyang Yun saw that he had used the title "our" again, and knew that he had re-counted the military training division into the ranks of the 29th Army. He smiled secretly in his heart and said, "Thank you for your teachings. You support me. I have enough confidence." Got it." Then he turned around and shouted outside: "Adjutant Liu, bring the things in."
Adjutant Liu was Liu Zheliang. He agreed and walked in with a cloth bag. Ouyang Yun opened the cloth bag and took out a rifle from it. He handed it to Song Zheyuan and said: "Military seat, take a look. This It is the automatic rifle first developed by the Second Ordnance Factory."
Song Zheyuan, the famous name of the automatic rifle, had heard of it. His eyes lit up when he heard this. He took it and looked at it carefully, and asked: "I heard that the automatic rifle can shoot continuously. How many times can this gun shoot with one load?"
"Twenty times."
This gun is developed based on the G3A3 automatic rifle of the Federal Republic of Germany in the 1950s and 1960s. The total gun length is 1050MM, the empty weight is 4.5KG, it uses a 20-round magazine, and has four right-hand twist riflings of 315MM, with a range of about 450M. , the rate of fire is about 600 rounds per minute. Different from the original gun, the caliber is enlarged to 7.92MM. The purpose of this is to consider the versatility of the ammunition, so it uses the same medium-sized ammunition currently used by the domestic army. caliber,
Song Zheyuan figured out the performance parameters of this gun and was greatly surprised. He said: "With such performance on the battlefield, it means that in the time it takes a Japanese soldier to fire one shot, we can fire five or six shots or even more." He said. The more he talked about it, the happier he became. In the end, he completely forgot about the fact that the military training division had become independent. He clamored to credit the military training division for developing this gun, and to record great achievements.
The reason why Ouyang Yun wanted to bring out this rifle during this trip was to dispel his wariness. Seeing that his goal was achieved, he immediately asked him to name the gun.
Song Zheyuan thought about it carefully, and finally named it "Weiqing", which means Wei Qing resists external humiliation, and placed an order for 20,000 bottles at a time -
