At the same time, Wang Jiuling also arranged for many officers to take turns to go to the front line to practice and gain combat experience. Each time there were more than 200 people, and there was a trend of expansion. Wang Jiuling believed that after experiencing the war, they would be able to do more in the future when Wang Jiuling expanded the army.
Okay, take care of the soldiers below.
At the same time, they can integrate what they learned from the Germans with Chinese military tactics to form their own
Of course, Wang Jiuling's big moves were not hidden from the Japanese and Chiang Kai-shek in Nanjing. The Japanese had no choice but to find trouble with Chiang Kai-shek.
When Chiang Kai-shek questioned Wang Jiuling, Wang Jiuling told Chiang Kai-shek that the weapons developed must be tested on the battlefield. Otherwise, if it is equipped with troops across the country and it is found that the weapon is not good, it will be a big loss.
At the same time, Wang Jiuling took out the firearms data returned from the front line and told it to Chiang Kai-shek. It proved that the Zhongformal was a good gun, at least on the battlefield it was much better than the Japanese 38-caliber gun. Then he also provided 60- and 80-caliber guns.
The mortar drawings were given to Chiang Kai-shek
He also praised Chiang Kai-shek, saying that he really wanted to go north to fight against the Japanese invaders, but the country's strength was too weak, and he would definitely lose more if he fought now. However, things that were inconvenient for the central government to come forward could be done by the local governments, and the central government did not have the power to do so.
They provided money but no weapons. There was nothing the Japanese could do. The worst they could do was let Japan impose an embargo on China.
After a lot of fooling around, Chiang Kai-shek was finally taken care of. Originally, if Wang Jiuling stayed in Xikang, he wouldn't worry about Chiang Kai-shek's tricks. However, when it comes to the great cause of anti-Japanese war, if Chiang Kai-shek, the most powerful man in China, is offended, it won't matter.
It would be enough for Wang Jiuling to just ask for trouble and make someone wear small shoes. Everything from Xikang Road to Chahar was under the control of Chiang Kai-shek. If he prevented Wang Jiuling from transporting weapons and ammunition to the 29th Route Army, then there was nothing anyone could do about it.
, if there is Lao Jiang’s acquiescence and he instructs the people below to support it, then the whole journey will be smooth.
In order to defeat Chiang Kai-shek's central government, Wang Jiuling not only directly and strongly supported the 29th Route Army, but also selected two targets. One was Suiyuan Chairman Fu Zuoyi, and the other was Hebei's Shang Zhen. They were both under the name of the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Fu Zuoyi was appointed acting chairman of Suiyuan on August 18, 1931, and was officially appointed chairman on December 28, directly in charge of the military and political power of Suiyuan. In order to divide Yan Xishan, Chiang Kai-shek also tried to win over him, but did not give him
There are too many practical aids, and Wang Jiuling is very costly. Although the 29th Route Army is standing in front of Chahar, Wang Jiuling is not sure how long Chahar can last.
Therefore, it is necessary to support Fu Zuoyi in resisting Japan. Historically, Suiyuan was not completely occupied under the leadership of Fu Zuoyi. Only the section by the railway was occupied.
After Fu Zuoyi took over as the chairman of Suiyuan Province, in view of the successive years of riots, bandits everywhere, and the people's livelihood, he proposed the "immigration, solidification of border areas, development of production, and consolidation of national defense" case to the Fourth Plenary Session of the Third Central Committee of the Kuomintang, and worked hard to govern, reorganize the military, and eliminate military forces.
In just a few years, the appearance of Suiyuan has been greatly improved by eliminating banditry, rectifying taxation, finance, dredging rivers and canals, and developing industrial and agricultural production.
However, there are a large number of Mongols in the territory, and the treacherous King De is instigating the Mongolian rebellion. Although most Mongolians did not support King De in history, some Japanese still participated in treason, or secretly helped the Japanese.
There was a Japanese army pressing down on the territory, and then there were traitors and spies who made trouble, and the weapons and equipment were inferior to others. Therefore, it can be seen that Fu Zuoyi was able to preserve most of Suiyuan's territory from the September 18th Incident to the surrender of the Japanese for more than ten years.
its ability
The people sent by Wang Jiuling did not mince words. According to history, Wang Jiuling chose to trust Fu Zuoyi, so he directly assisted Fu Zuoyi with 20,000 official rifles and dozens of mortars.
When Fu Zuoyi heard Xikang's handwriting, he thought Xikang wanted him to do something. You must know that his old commander Yan Xishan now asks for 10,000 rifles each time, but only gives one or two thousand, and he also charges money. However,
Wang Jiuling gave him so many guns and ammunition at once, as well as cannons. They were all the latest production and had never been opened. Moreover, this gun was already the standard rifle of the Central Army. It is said that its performance was as good as Mauser or something like that.
Fu Zuoyi even tried the gun himself. It was indeed a good weapon. It was much more powerful than those made in Shanxi.
But what surprised him the most was that Xikang just asked him to stabilize Suiyuan early, fight back against the Japanese and traitors, and support the 29th Route Army in Chahar's bloody melee to uphold national justice. It was only that simple. Fu Zuoyi insisted that he couldn't believe it.
This is real
However, Fu Zuoyi originally planned to fulfill Wang Jiuling's request, but because of the lack of guns and ammunition, the arrival of Wang Jiuling's batch of weapons can be regarded as solving an urgent need.
At the same time, Xikang representatives hope that Fu Zuoyi will stabilize Suiyuan as soon as possible and help him build rifle production lines and bullet production lines.
Fu Zuoyi completely convinced the Xikang Army. It was such a great feat. From then on, Fu Zuoyi became Wang Jiuling's loyal ally in the anti-Japanese war in North China. He also gave full support to the 29th Route Army. After all, Chahar was gone, and Sui was next.
From a distance, you can see the arrogance of those traitors and bandits, and you know that the Japanese are already active. Fu Zuoyi feels that Xikang's method of dealing with traitors is very suitable for him, and it has set off a bloody storm in Suiyuan, but he doesn't need it now
It depends on Yan Laoxi's face, because most of his weapons are medium-sized rifles, and Xikang will soon help him build an arsenal
But Wang Jiuling also saw from here that he should imitate some light machine guns first. The mg42 is still out of the question. If something big happens, there will be no heavy machine guns, not even light machine guns. Then it will be over.
So Wang Jiuling decided to imitate the Czech light machine gun. After all, there are already many in China. In the future, the production line can also make bullets and sell them for money.
Wang Jiuling's second target of support was Shang Zhen in Hebei Province. At this time, Shang Zhen held the post of commander of the 32nd Army. The army was organized into three divisions with more than 20,000 people. However, he had not yet served as the chairman of Hebei Province.
Because he had left Yan Xishan a long time ago and now surrendered to Chiang Kai-shek, he forgot that he did not intend to support tens of thousands of rifles for him. Wang Jiuling only gave him two thousand official rifles, while Shang Zhen had long been interested in the official rifles.
He has been coveting it for a long time. When he met the veteran before, Lao Jiang showed off in particular, taking a formal rifle and going shooting with Shang Zhen. Shang Zhen also tried the gun at that time. With the intuition of a soldier with many years of experience, he felt that this
This gun is really good. I won’t compare it with other guns in China. He just said that none of the 38 or 38 guns he has played with can compare with this gun. The Mauser is about the same.
When Shang Zhen saw that the gun was still made in China, Lao Jiang told him that this gun was developed, designed and produced in China. Before leaving, he gave one to Shang Zhen and encouraged him to work hard. The arsenal was vigorously producing it and he would definitely give it to him when the time came.
His military uniform
However, Shang Zhen did not expect that the first batch of guns was not sent by Chiang Kai-shek, but from Xikang. Looking at the workmanship, it felt better than the one sent by Chiang Kai-shek, and the feel was better!
