At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the training of the Corps of Cadets was over. The new recruits and veterans were fetching water to take a bath, and some were practicing more on the training ground. Ouyang Yun finally waited until Li Tieshu was free and invited him to walk to the only tree on the training ground.
Under the locust tree, facing the setting sun, he said: "Brother Li, the military department has informed me that I will go to Nanyuan for a meeting tomorrow."
After Song Zheyuan completed the mobilization of the troops, he and Xiong Bin, the representative of Chiang Kai-shek, reached a consensus that the 29th Army had the name to control Hebei, so they moved the general headquarters from Zhangjiakou to Nanyuan, Beiping, and officially began to take over Hebei. By Ouyang Yun
The convening of a military meeting, described as dividing the cake, is imminent.
Li Tieshu was in the military camp and had relatively little information. He asked, "Commander Song is back from Tianjin?"
"Well, Chiang Kai-shek sent Xiong Bin to negotiate with him, and the two sides have reached a consensus. The 29th Army will resolutely defend North China. Chiang Kai-shek not only publicly recognized the current situation of our army, but also met all requirements in terms of organization, equipment, and soldier pay."
"What a good thing!"
Ouyang Yun smiled bitterly: "It is indeed a good thing. Our cadet regiment will be upgraded to an independent cadet brigade."
Li Tieshu glanced at him and said, "You don't seem happy. Could it be that the brigade commander is someone else?"
"No, no, the brigade commander is probably me. However, this brigade commander is not that easy to be. Do you know why I can be the captain of the school corps?"
"It should be that Commander Song cherishes talents, right?" Li Tieshu thought for a while and said, in his opinion, although Ouyang Yun is young, he is very capable in fighting.
Ouyang Yun shook his head and said: "I asked for this regiment leader on my own initiative. For this reason, I have an agreement with Commander Song."
The person who delivered the meeting notice to Ouyang Yun was Guo Biao. Guo Biao was a newly promoted adjutant. Speaking of which, this had something to do with Ouyang Yun. Song's chief adjutant had always been close to the Japanese. Of course, anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was actually the case.
It was Song's intention. As a result, after Song had a quarrel with the Japanese over Ouyang Yun's matter, he became a scapegoat and was currently assigned to the guard regiment as battalion commander.
Originally, with Guo Biao's current identity and status, he was not required to do the trivial matter of delivering meeting notices, but out of concern for Ouyang Yun, he specifically asked for this job, just to serve as a wake-up call for his little brother.
Because Guo Biao was accompanied by Song's driver when delivering the letter - Guo Biao couldn't drive. Guo Biao couldn't say anything in depth. He only said meaningfully to him: "Ouyang, you are promoted very quickly.
Ah, in the 29th Army, a brigade commander at your age is absolutely unprecedented and unprecedented. The army is treating you like a treasure trove. Don’t let him down!?"
Based on Guo Biao's words, Ouyang Yun knew that the matter of setting up the factory could not be postponed any longer. Although his relationship with Song Zheyuan seemed very glamorous in appearance, one admired his name and sincerely surrendered to him, and the other admired his talents and put them to good use.
But everyone involved knows what exactly maintains their delicate relationship——
It is the factories, industries, and the so-called "future of the 29th Army" that Ouyang Yun promised.
Now that Song Zheyuan has fulfilled his promise, Ouyang Yun should show his performance next. In this way, it is urgent to go to the United States. However, with the expansion of the Xue Corps into a brigade, the military urgently needs to deal with it
Naturally, he had a lot of affairs. He came to Li Tieshu at this time just to coordinate things like going abroad, setting up factories and expanding the company.
He truthfully recounted the scene when he and Song met for the first time. Li Tieshu secretly marveled at what he heard. He gained a deeper understanding of his junior officer, and also knew that the other party really regarded him as a brother and had a little secret in his heart.
A small touch.
After listening to his story, Li Tieshu asked: "Then you will be fully engaged in the factory?"
Ouyang Yun nodded and said, "Yes, so I need your help."
Li Tieshu said seriously: "Ouyang, since you can trust me, I will not let you down. Just tell me what you have to say."
"You don't dare to give orders. You are much better than me in leading troops. A few days ago, I received an invitation letter from the president of Harvard University in the United States, asking me to come over for a visit. I would like to take this opportunity to purchase the supplies that need to be purchased.
We have bought all the equipment and instruments. Now that the traffic is blocked, this trip may take several months, so I have to leave all the domestic affairs to you. I am not very worried about Xue Bing Tuan, Lang Ya and Hu Tong, I am most worried
It's the Special Service Brigade. Brother Li, if by any chance I can't come back, I hope you can protect these thirty-two people and hand them over to Commander Yu safely."
Li Tieshu frowned and said: "It's not right to say anything before we leave, Ouyang, this is not like your style - I believe you will be able to come back safely!"
Ouyang Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly. He only had this worry recently. As a time traveler, because he knew the history very well and was protected by a bulletproof vest, he was confident that he would not die in vain. But things in the world are unpredictable, and who knows which corner.
Will he shoot a bullet and take him away directly?! He considered that since he was already here and indeed had the power to change the fate of the country, wouldn't it be too unfair if he died without doing anything?
——Considering that he would be busy with a lot of things after entering Renqiu, he hurriedly told Li Tieshu this moment as if he was explaining the funeral arrangements. On the one hand, it was just in case, and on the other hand, it was also to stabilize Li Tieshu.
Heart.
If he dies, who else in the country can protect and make good use of this power? He thought about it and finally decided to bet on Xuezhong——
Yu Xuezhong is now leading the 51st Army to "suppress bandits" in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region. Historically, he once served as the governor of Gansu, but was later dismissed due to the "Xi'an Incident" and remained in office. Then he moved to Jiangsu and Shandong to fight against Japan.
Ouyang Yun had always had a good impression of the GCD and had good cooperation with the Eighth Route Army during the Anti-Japanese War. After the Kuomintang defeated Taiwan in 1949, he did not withdraw with Chiang Kai-shek. Ouyang Yun was very relieved to leave the trainees of the Special Service Brigade to his care.
Of course, he could also hand them over directly to GCD, but considering the current strength of GCD and fear of future sports and a series of other things, he thought it would be better to hand them over to the students from the perspective of thinking about the future of the special service brigade students.
Only Yu Xuezhong can better protect them.
Under his influence, Li Tieshu now has a detailed understanding of the role of people's livelihood economy in the war. When he returns to Yu Xuezhong in the future, he may be able to continue his unfinished business. So for him, this time travel is not a good one.
All for nothing.
In Ouyang Yun's mind, Hebei is definitely a treasure land because of the Renqiu oil fields and a large number of high-quality iron ore areas. As long as it is developed well, it will not only be enough for the 29th Army to rely on Yicha and the Japs for several years or even
By the end of the Anti-Japanese War, it is not impossible to build the 29th Army into a world-class powerful army.
The oil fields in Renqiu, due to the high internal pressure, were all direct injection wells developed in the early stage, with relatively low mining costs and technical requirements; while the iron ore mines in Hebei such as Yidong, Chengde Damiao, Chengde Heishan, etc. all belong to A,
B-grade high-quality iron ore areas, some of which can even be mined in the open, and the cost of mining and refining is not too high. The only thing that makes him feel comfortable is Yidong. The Chengde area is currently a demilitarized zone, which is actually controlled by the little devils.
In his hands, if it weren’t for the fact that Chahar’s Xuanhua and Chicheng areas also have large-scale mining areas, which can fully meet the iron needs of the two places, with his temperament, it is difficult to guarantee whether he will give up waiting for the iron to be put into the pot.
The Anti-Japanese War broke out early.
Unfortunately, the current domestic industrial level is too low, especially in heavy industry, and some equipment has to be imported from Western countries. Therefore, a trip to the United States is inevitable and necessary. Therefore, I know that this trip to the United States will definitely
There were many dangers, but he had to go there bravely.
"I hope so, but nothing is absolute -" At this point, he held Li Tieshu's hand and said emotionally: "Brother Li, do you know what I am most glad about coming back this time? It's that I got to know you guys.
Brother, I used to think that most of the officers in the national army were incompetent and corrupt, but now I know that there are a lot of hot-blooded men. I won’t talk about Commander Yu, the tiger general of the country, let’s just say our 29th Army.
, General Zhang Zizhong, General Feng Zhi'an, General Zhao Dengyu, and Brother Li, which one of you is not a passionate man who is able to serve the country with his own body - I have people like you in China, if I can't defeat the little devil, it is really unreasonable.
Got it!"
At this time, the sun was about to go west, and the evening glow shone on his young face, making his face covered with a layer of glow. After listening to his heartfelt words, Li Tieshu couldn't help but said emotionally: "Ouyang, you said that too much.
Well, China has had no shortage of hot-blooded men since ancient times, but it is often because of the cowardice of those in power that foreign thieves have been able to take advantage of it, making our country a plaything in the hands of the great powers since the late Qing Dynasty - but as you said
, As long as we are alive, China will become stronger one day, Ouyang, promise me! You must come back safely. Remember, you are the boss of the Corps, whether it is a regiment-level organization, a brigade-level organization, or even a
Group Army, only you are our boss, and only you can lead us to victory!"
As a time traveler, Ouyang Yun often talks about his boss. After being in contact with him for a long time, everyone knows that privately, he likes his soldiers to call him boss. Now, Li Tieshu, as the boss who is several years older than him,
When the eldest brother said such words, he undoubtedly truly regarded Ouyang Yun as his superior, a brother who could live and die together.
Ouyang Yun gave him a hug, patted him on the back several times, and said "thank you". Then, the two of them gave each other a solemn military salute, ending the conversation.
