In mid-August, George, the vice president of Eurasia Group, was entrusted by the group's executive president Gu Heng to conduct a bidding activity in Shanghai. After half a month, an American company finally won the bid for the Wuhu deepwater terminal project. Citibank submitted a request to Eurasia Group

Loan of US$1 million for the construction of Wuhu Wharf.

Eurasia Group once again caught people's attention, but this time the impact of the bidding was quickly overwhelmed by the rolling publicity of rubber stocks. Eurasia Group's Shanghai office was quietly listed on a morning in mid-August, followed by Eurasia Group

Citibank was entrusted to purchase machinery and equipment for a small and medium-sized textile factory from the United States.

In early September, Wuhu Yijishan Medical College opened. As a sponsor, Fang Jianxiong attended the opening ceremony and once again donated 100,000 yuan to the school in public. This incident became a favorite, and Fang Jianxiong's reputation in Wuhu was unparalleled.

On September 2, there was a civil uprising in Dengzhou, Henan. On the sixth, there was a civil uprising in Jianyang, Fujian. On the 12th, more than 7,000 mechanics in Gui'an County, Zhejiang went on strike. On the 18th, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Renjun, telegraphed a note from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Britain, Japan, and Platas Island (Dongsha Island) are Chinese territories. On the 27th, Duan Fang, the governor of Liangjiang, petitioned to set up an agricultural, industrial and industrial school in the south of the Yangtze River.

In early October, Zhu Jiabao's petition for the establishment of additional patrol battalions was approved. Anqing could add ten battalions, including two in Wuhu. On October 31, Hong Kong Chinese businessmen insulted and slandered the Chinese with Japanese insults, and riots broke out...

….

The swaying Qing Dynasty came to November 1908. Two months passed very quickly, especially Fang Jianxiong, who spent every day busy. Especially the issue of additional patrol battalions, Fang Jianxiong couldn't make up his mind.

With less effort and capital. With Zhu Jiabao's trust, Fang Jianxiong completely followed the new army's establishment when adding the troops. One month

The workers and horses were recruited and given to Jan Sen and other foreign devils for rigorous training. During this period, five more German Japs came under Fang Jianxiong's command, all of whom were retired grassroots officers who were tempted by Jen Sen. The German instructors under Fang Jianxiong,

The number increased to ten. Fang Jianxiong was very satisfied with this. His only regret was that there were too few officers in the technical arms.

In early November, Fang Jianxiong introduced a new supplementary method to the training syllabus. The German devils could not accept this supplementary method. In this regard, Fang Jianxiong did not compromise and held a one-day meeting. Based on the different national conditions, he finally persuaded

Got these foreign devils.

In his later memoirs, the foreign devil Jensen said, “At first we could not accept this supplementary method in the training syllabus. Later facts proved that on this special battlefield in China, the training of these supplementary methods was effective in the practice of war.

It played a huge role. In a private conversation with me, Chief Fang called this the "three-by-three" tactic. In my later military practice, I personally felt that the "four groups and one team" tactic proposed by Chief Fang was very effective in situations where heavy firepower was lacking.

The tremendous power exerted by China on the battlefield.”

On November 3, Fang Jianxiong was ordered to lead a teaching team to Anqing to carry out the task of guarding the headquarters of the Governor of Liangjiang.

Compared with the lively scene at Anqing Pier to welcome the New Army's Ninth Town, the scene caused by the teaching team that arrived half a month late was much quieter. The teaching team consisted of 108 people, under the command of three instructors.

We carried our luggage and disembarked from the ship in an orderly manner.

It didn't take long, only ten minutes, before they all got off the boat. During the whole process, no one spoke except for the sounds of action. The new co-president Yu Dahong, who was ordered to pick up the boat, met this small team.

, Yu Dahong was frightened.

After more than a hundred people landed, they immediately lined up in three groups, two in a row, and reported their numbers. Everyone looked solemn, wearing armed belts on their waists, double guns, leggings, and big leather boots. The last person to disembark was Fang Jianxiong, behind him

It was Qi Erzhu who was leading the horse. Wu Yunzhui, who was blindfolded, looked a little uneasy when he got off the boat.

Yu Dahong stepped forward to greet him, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Is this Fang Fuguo coming? Yu Dahong is so polite!"

Facing Yu Dahong's hand-over-hand salute, Fang Jianxiong took two steps forward, stood at attention and saluted: "Fang Jianxiong has met Lord Xietong!"

Yu Dahong was shocked by Fang Jianxiong's solemn military salute. He put away his hands with a smile and returned the military salute. He was muttering in his heart that this boy is so ignorant!

Yu Dahong was a little wary of Fang Jianxiong. The main reason was that he was worried that Fang Jianxiong would steal his position. The source of this worry was that Zhu Jiabao mentioned Fang Jianxiong's military training several times. A few days ago, Duan Fang stationed himself at the Liangjiang Governor's Palace at the Yinggong Temple outside the city.

At that time, Zhu Jiabao also praised Fang Jianxiong in front of Duan Fang. He specifically mentioned that Fang Jianxiong was Sun Baoqi's disciple. Forget it if he was just Sun Baoqi, but the fatal thing is that Sun Baoqi and Yikuang are in-laws.

Author's note: There are many conflicts in historical data. For example, Yinchang appears in the historical data of Taihu Qiu Cao, and major events record that Yinchang went to Germany as ambassador on September 23rd and August 28th on the lunar calendar. If there is anything in the article that is inconsistent with the reader

Any discrepancies that we know are entirely due to the needs of the story. In fact, on August 30, 1908, Zhu Jiabao was still in Jilin and took office in Anhui early due to the needs of the story. Please do not spray nonsense.

Looking at the teaching team who lined up neatly and acted like one person, and then looked at the equipment that made people's eyes almost fall off, Yu Dahong couldn't help but take a breath and said: "Funding the country, it's easy to lay down the capital and train the troops well."

ah!"

Fang Jianxiong put away his seriousness and said with a smile: "Don't neglect your responsibilities. All the students in the teaching team will also be subordinates of Lord Xie Tong from now on. Jianxiong also works as a patrol camp, and has a lot of business at home.

To do.”

Yu Dahong liked hearing this, but he didn't know if Fang Jianxiong was deceiving him.

"Fuguo, I will host a banquet for the new military association. Can we get together?" Yu Dahong is also a suspicious, ruthless, and cunning person. Fang Jianxiong knew a lot about him before he came, so it is undoubtedly unwise to compete for the position of the new military association.

.

Facing the invitation, Fang Jianxiong took out a list from his pocket, handed it to Yu Dahong with both hands and said: "Easy to say, easy to say, this is a trivial matter. I should have delivered it to the house in person, but Master Futai summoned me urgently, so I have to hand it over now."

To Lord Xietong."

Yu Dahong took the gift list and looked at it, and his eyes suddenly lit up. The gift list said, "Mexican Eagle Ocean costs 5,000 yuan, ten German-made German pistols, two German-made Rhine pistols, and some Wuhu specialties."

"How can you accept such a heavy gift?" After saying this, Yu Dahong stared at the gift list and couldn't move his eyes. Fang Jianxiong smiled a little bit and said: "Your Excellency, you are so polite! My home is in Wuhu, Jiye

Also in Wuhu. The brothers in the teaching team have a close relationship with Fang, please take good care of them in the future."

This was a sign of his sincerity. Fang Jianxiong would not leave Wuhu. Yu Dahong was greatly reassured. He handed the gift list to his entourage and waited for the gifts to be disembarked and sent home. Then he asked Fang Jianxiong to get on the road and go to the Heroes' Temple outside the city.

The marching teaching team was still in strict formation. Apart from the sound of footsteps and orders, no other noise could be heard. A hundred or so people walked out of the pier in high spirits, but there was a chilling atmosphere. It was fifty meters away.

Within, no one dared to come close to interfere. Yu Dahong and Fang Jianxiong rode their horses side by side, looking at the advancing teaching team along the way, and said with a few clicks: "Good guys, these soldiers are trained!"

Fang Jianxiong laughed after hearing this and said: "I hired ten German instructors, and the soldiers were trained by Germans. As for my thoughts, they are all over the ocean. I heard that there was a servant named Xiao Taohong in Liuxiangyuan in Anqing City.

Not bad, it became popular all over Anqing."

Yu Dahong first looked at the longing look on this young man's face, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Yu Dahong had long heard that Fang Jianxiong was running an industrial business in Wuhu. Isn't it just to make money? He likes money and likes women.

, this person is not a big threat. In fact, Yu Dahong himself is also fond of money and lust, but he just calls himself a hero.

Because something happened in the Huncheng Thirty-one Association, Qiu Cao completely became the soy sauce character this time. Along the way, when this matter was brought up, Yu Dahong and Fang Jianxiong had a good conversation, but the topic was all about Fengyue, such as Xiao Taohong's

The skin is white and tender.

Outside the camp, Fang Jianxiong met an entourage of Zhu Jiabao. He had seen him once before in Wuhu, and he had some impression of him.

"Why are we here? Your Excellency has been waiting for a long time!" The entourage's words were not very pleasant, and his tone was not very kind. These were all the sequelae of being humiliated in Wuhu, and they were just used to make excuses. Yu Dahong was angry and did not dare to say anything.

, Fang Jianxiong said very rudely: "I received the telegram the night before yesterday. More than a hundred people from the teaching team immediately packed up and set off. The ship from Wuhu to Anqing only takes a day and a night. Fang Jianxiong did not dare to delay for a moment! Who will take the lead?

How can our soldiers be as fast as the elite soldiers brought out by Fang? As a follower of Futai and not familiar with military matters, how dare you make such false claims?"

Almost in an instant, Fang Jianxiong changed into a different person. He had a cold and arrogant face, and stood with his head held high on the horse! He didn't even look at the follower. The follower turned purple with anger and turned around to leave.

When Yu Dahong saw this, he said: "Fuguo, you are being reckless, you are being reckless. This person is Mr. Futai who is personally accompanying Zhu Zhong."

Fang Jianxiong said lightly: "I know, but what I hate the most is this kind of layman who talks indiscriminately! We, the soldiers, serve the imperial court above and control the platform below. How can we be driven by the orders of those below to support the platform?"

Yu Dahong was dumbfounded when he heard that, and secretly thought to himself, this guy is really talented, but he is still a fool. Maybe these people who went abroad and drank foreign ink and came back have this kind of virtue. But he was respectful and generous to me.

, it seems that he came here for the sake of being a soldier.

Zhu Zhong entered the palace with a purple complexion, and a group of officials including Duan Fang, the governor of Liangjiang, and Zhu Jiabao were talking. Seeing Zhu Zhong come in with an ugly face to receive the gift, Zhu Jiabao's face sank, and he seemed to have some understanding. "Zhu Zhong, I want you to be here.

Fang Fuguo is waiting outside, why did he come in?"

Zhu Zhong stepped forward and elaborated on what happened at the door. Duan Fang heard clearly and showed no expression on his face. Zhu Jiabao's face gradually turned gloomy and he looked at Zhu Zhong until he saw that he did not dare to continue.
