Chapter 40 Opening of Army University

On March 1st, the National Defense Army University officially opened. Liu Mingzhao, who was hurrying and taking his time, took the written test with a letter of introduction, but his results were not satisfactory. Among the hundreds of people who took the test together, they could only be considered average. But what followed

During the interview, Liu Mingzhao performed well. Especially his calm and meticulous character, which was undoubtedly revealed during the analysis of a battle case.

Among more than a hundred connections, Liu Mingzhao performed best during the interview and was admitted.

The newly completed National Defense Army University is built next to Jinghu Lake. On the huge playground, 550 first-year students of the Army University are lined up neatly. The students are mainly student soldiers. Each unit recommends local quotas, and there are also open examinations for recruitment.

.

When Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Forces and President of Mainland China Fang Jianxiong appeared in front of the students with a group of dignitaries from the National Defense Forces, he immediately became the focus of all the students' attention.

Liu Mingzhao is not much different from ordinary students. He has not yet become the most intelligent general of the National Defense Forces. He is naturally very excited when he sees his revolutionary idol. He straightens his waist and stares hard, fearing that the commander-in-chief will see him.

Poor performance.

Walking in front of the queue, looking at the excited young faces, Fang Jianxiong knew that there were many talented people here, and finally felt a little bit like a time traveler.

On the rostrum, I had prepared a speech script, and I had memorized it all, but I never thought that I would forget it all in the excitement. In front of so many students, taking out the speech script was obviously not enough to show off!

"Dear classmates, the Army University has started. Today, standing here, I seem to see countless generals coming out of here in the near future, swaying their blood and making contributions on the battlefield to defend the country and strive for national independence and independence. Someone may want to ask

, what is the significance of the existence of the National Defense Force? It is very simple, to protect the home and the country! Don't underestimate these four words. To put it in a small way, it is to protect your family from the suffering of invasion and injury. In a big way, the National Defense Force will definitely become the basis for the rise of the Chinese nation.

The backbone! And you shoulder the glorious mission given by history, which is to hold high the banner of the rise of the nation and build a democratic, prosperous and strong New China. Brave the enemy's fire and move forward!"

When he said the word "move forward", Fang Jianxiong completed self-hypnosis. He raised his hand in excitement and waved it down!

At this moment, it should have been the time for the preparations to be made in advance! But it seems that it is no longer needed. Hundreds of students, all excited, shouted in unison without any organization: Brave the enemy's artillery fire, move forward!

The roar of the mountains and the tsunami are astonishing!

But as the commander-in-chief raised his hand slightly, it stopped neatly and after a short period of suppression.

"Everyone is bound to die! However, death can be lighter than a feather or heavier than Mount Tai! Dying for personal interests is lighter than a feather! Dying for the rise of the Chinese nation is heavier than Mount Tai! Dear students, when you graduate with honors

.When you walk out of school and become a glorious soldier of the National Defense Force! I will take you to the battlefield to save the nation from danger! Like a man! Fight! Die! You heard it right, die! So! Dear students

, please allow me to say this: use our bloodshed and sacrifice to exchange for the invincibility of the National Defense Force! Use the young self-improvement lives of a generation of National Defense Force soldiers to carve out a bloody road for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. To win the Chinese nation to stand on the top of the world's nations again.

That day!" There was a brief pause in the speech, and the atmosphere reached its highest point! Everyone held their breath and focused their eyes on one point, waiting for the final shocking explosion!

"Long live the Chinese nation! Long live the National Defense Force!" The young Commander-in-Chief Fang exhaled softly, raised his right hand high, and shouted hoarsely! The scene was completely ignited, and the young face was twisted and ferocious with excitement. He shouted with all his strength, and the sound went up to the sky.

Roaring: "Long live the Chinese nation! Long live the National Defense Forces!"

This day will forever be remembered in the military history of the National Defense Forces! The unscripted speech on this day was constantly copied and pasted on various occasions in the days that followed.

Well! The commander-in-chief’s speech inspired a generation of young people and pointed the direction of national rejuvenation.

Kunming, Yunnan Governor's Office.

Fan Shisheng, who was ordered to rush back from Luzhou, was led to Cai E's office. The thin-faced Cai E was only of medium build and had a mustache that was popular at the time. If Fang Jianxiong was standing in front of Cai E, he would definitely exclaim: "

Movies and TV shows are all lies. It’s true that Cai E is a handsome guy, but he has a beard and is not the pretty guy like Wang Xingang.”

Cai E was meditating with a telegram in his hand. The content of the telegram was that the Sixth Division of the National Defense Forces was stationed in Bengbu, and the Huyan Huncheng Brigade went north to Shangqiu, which kicked off the National Defense Forces' Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. Politically, Cai E followed Liang Qichao, and militarily advocated for the country.

Military, soldiers are non-partisan. Looking at Cai E from the perspective of official history, he is a great, pure and excellent soldier.

Luo Peijin, currently the Minister of Military and Political Affairs, led Fan Shisheng in.

"Fan Shisheng, courtesy name Xiaoquan! Am I remembering it correctly?" Cai E stood up and asked with a smile. Fan Shisheng stood at attention and replied: "Report to the Governor, you remembered it correctly." Cai E raised his hand to signal for relief and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous.

You saw the National Defense Forces with your own eyes, tell me what you think."

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, judging from the humble position, the National Defense Force is well-trained, well-equipped, and disciplined. It is worthy of being the most powerful force in the country today." Fan Shisheng's answer was a bit like a martial arts student. Cai E nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Be specific."

Fan Shisheng told what he had seen and heard one by one. Cai E did not speak and listened quietly. When Fan Shisheng finished speaking, he did not speak immediately. Instead, he fell into silence and slowly turned around with his hands behind his back.

Pacing.

In real history, the current military and political minister Luo Peijin, who served as chief of staff, governor of Sichuan, and finally died tragically in southern Yunnan, has not yet had the opportunity to become a warlord, so he still works as an assistant to Cai E. Seeing the governor like this, Luo Peijin signaled Fan Shisheng to go out.

He quietly poured a glass of water for the governor.

"Rongxuan, what do you think of Fang Fuguo and his National Defense Force?" Cai E finally spoke, while taking the cup.

"It's amazing. The Beiyang Army has been in existence for many years, and the National Defense Force has only been in power for a few days, and now it actually has the upper hand. Not to mention anything else, the way this person leads the troops is really amazing. Also, Jiang Baili, Zhang Runong, Xu Guqing

, are all leaders in the army, and they are willing to be below them. Looking at today's China, there is no second person who can do this." Luo Peijin meant to tell the truth, and his words sounded like he had the ambition of others. He entered Cai E's

Ears, these words have no bad effect.

"The most powerful thing about Fang Fuguo is actually his military system. According to the current system of the National Defense Forces, the division commanders and brigade commanders below have no personnel power and no financial power. The two most important powers are in the General Secretary of the National Defense Forces.

In the hands of the General Staff. This is the way to prevent the emergence of warlords, and people have to admire and look up to him. I know Brother Baili's character and ideas well. It is probably because of this that he can join the National Defense Forces." Cai E's

These words also affirmed Fang Jianxiong.

Yes, yes, now if you want to bow to Cai E, what is the difference between it and dreaming? Even if Cai E is a pure soldier, then Fang Jianxiong must be able to represent this country.

"Commander, what happened to Nai Geng in Guiyang has been reported in Shanghai." Luo Peijin reported in a low voice and handed over a telegram. Cai E took it and read it, and slapped the table angrily without saying a word.

Bei Geng is the name of Tang Jiyao. After Tang Jiyao conquered Yunnan, he was "ordered" to lead his troops to aid Hubei via Sichuan, and later changed to the Yunnan Northern Expedition. Much of the history of this time and space is still on the original track, such as Guizhou.

Tang Jiyao, who was "ordered" to go to the Northern Expedition, was ordered to divert to Guiyang on the way to put an end to the "Guizhou Rebellion". According to official history, Cai E once called Tang Jiyao and asked Tang Jiyao not to go to Guiyang, because the Guizhou Rebellion was Guizhou's internal affairs. According to official history, this was

Cai E listened to the advice of Zhong Changzuo, the famous leader of the Autonomous Society.

Unexpectedly, Tang Jiyao was ambitious and continued to march into Guiyang. After arriving in Guiyang, he captured Guiyang by force. Then he went on a killing spree. After persuading Cai E, Zhong Changzuo fiercely pursued Tang Jiyao's troops, seeking to subdue Tang Jiyao again, but was assassinated in Anshun.

Due to the confusion of time and space, Tang Jiyao's capture of Guiyang was delayed, but the massacre still happened. The newspaper said, "The defeated Guizhou army, regardless of officers and soldiers, was afraid that they could not be used for their own purposes. After disarming them, they drove them to the eastern suburbs.

"Kill them all." What it means is that after the Guiyang and Guizhou troops surrendered, Tang Jiyao buried them all alive. The exact number of people killed is unknown. Then Tang Jiyao raised the butcher knife again, and except for the constitutionalists who supported him, all the people were brutally killed.

Another batch was killed. The exact number is still unknown.

(Note: Readers, please don’t say that it’s all unknown. Well, as for this matter, the author struggled with it several times and decided to adopt the official history. This official history was compiled by the Academy of Social Sciences. Well, a long-winded sentence, there is a saying that Tang Jiyao’s Northern Expedition

, was sent away. But I guess many people won’t believe this statement. Well, I don’t believe it either, but this statement exists.)

All in all, Tang Jiyao is now the governor of Guizhou and a warlord. Cai E can't do anything about him, there is a lot of noise in the newspapers, and the Nanjing Provisional Government is having a headache over this matter.

"If you can't explain this matter clearly, don't talk about it." Cai E said this with difficulty, Luo Peijin nodded knowingly, and Cai E said: "The National Defense and Army University in Fang Fuguo has started, and the Northern Expedition in Bengbu has also begun.

With the power reaching the whole country, Cai E is willing to lead his troops northward and attack Beijing to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty and establish the Republic of China."

The power supply quickly reached Marshal Fang's hand. After glancing at it, he grunted and continued to lower his head to deal with the lunch in the enamel jar in his hand. He did not dare to look at the girl who sent the telegram, Yin Weijun. This is someone who has done something bad and has a guilty conscience.

Performance! The two sisters kindly took care of the hungover Marshal Fang. This inhumane guy actually slept with his sister. Forget it, he even asked the sister who came to change shifts to look at him!

Yin Weijun's resentful eyes quickly swept across the reactionary warlord's face, and he turned around and left in a hurry. This guy is too vile, so ignore him.

There was a guy named Han Yan who was very ignorant. When he came in, he saw Yin Weijun looking ugly and said casually: "What's going on?"
Chapter completed!
