The advantage of doing this is obvious. Xu Shaojie is a veteran of the army. Even since the late Qing Dynasty, the bad habit of soldiers as generals has led to warlords everywhere. Once the world is in chaos, warlords will definitely form a separatist regime.

"You guys keep busy. As soon as the battle plan comes out, bring it to me for signature. Today is the 25th, and on the 30th at the latest, our army will attack!" Fang Jianxiong confessed and invited Xu Shaojie to go next door to watch tea and talk. This means, Ninth Town

If you choose to cooperate, you must respect the battle plan formulated by Wuhu. Xu Shaojie has no intention of resisting this. He is a person who is easy to talk to.

After sitting for a while, Xu Shaoji expressed that he wanted to see the situation of the troops. It was still early, and Fang Jianxiong readily agreed. He took him out and first went to the heavy artillery brigade that Xu Shaoji had been thinking about for a long time. As soon as he left, Yang Yanchang arrived and met Xu Shaoji.

After that, go together.

Catching up with the heavy artillery brigade for live ammunition shooting, Cheng Zhixuan specially sent someone to invite them in the morning. When they arrived at the chosen position outside the city, Cheng Zhixuan was already waiting there. When she saw Xu Shaojie coming, she quickly came over to salute and greet her. Back in Anqing, Cheng Zhixuan couldn't do anything

He was a small platoon commander, and now he is a heavy artillery brigade commander.

After some polite greetings, the group came to the command post. There was a gun scope to see the effect of shooting. Xu Shaojie was a veteran. He held up the telescope to look at the twelve 105 heavy artillery pieces lined up. The soldiers arranged their positions in an orderly manner.

At first glance, it is the result of strict training. The observation balloon rises and the target data scale is quickly calculated.

The commander at the front came specifically to ask for the order to fire artillery. Cheng Zhixuan looked at Fang Jianxiong. "You are the brigade commander. What do you want me to do?" Fang Jianxiong gave him a blank look, which meant that he did not interfere with the command, but was here to make soy sauce.

Cheng Zhixuan's heart was agitated, she calmed down silently, and loudly ordered: "Start!"

An order was given, and soon the red flag in front was waved, and the three heavy artillery opened fire one after another. There was a muffled bang. The vibration of the sound of the artillery could be felt from the command post a hundred meters away. This was a test calibration test firing.

After a while, the adjusted data was calculated. It took less than five minutes. All the cannons began to fire, and the shooting range in the distance suddenly burst into flames. The preset target was hit by the heavy artillery and a sea of ​​​​fire was created.

Xu Shaojie was shocked again. The heavy artillery brigade's well-trained training was reflected in the speed of calculating data. It only took a few minutes from test firing to salvo. This is an incredible speed!

Xu Shaojie didn't know that the soldiers who calculated the data were all trained by Germans. The ones with the best results were all sent to the teaching team to lead students.

The power of the heavy artillery is astonishing. With a visual inspection, you can feel that the target hilltop was completely changed beyond recognition, and the center of the target painted in white lime was hit one after another. If it was a position, it would have been blown up to the point where it looked like nothing.

Xu Shaojian silently calculated in his mind. Each cannon fired six shells, which is 72 rounds. How many oceans does this cost? Calculating it clearly, my teeth hurt! This is a waste of money!

"When the cannon goes off, there's ten thousand taels of gold! There's nothing we can do about it, hey!" Fang Jianxiong muttered, feeling quite distressed.

Xu Shaoji couldn't help laughing, thinking that this guy is really interesting. You should have this awareness after you come back with so many heavy artillery.

The results were reported quickly. 12 guns were fired and 60 rounds hit the target. This result was pretty good. Fang Jianxiong was quite satisfied. He said to Xu Shaojie with some regret: "The heavy artillery brigade has just been established. This result is not satisfactory."

Xu Shaoji said in his heart, be satisfied, you have heavy artillery! He sighed casually: "Commander Fang is really generous. The Ninth Town has never dared to count on such a large-caliber artillery. Even if it does, it can't afford it."

Cheng Zhixuan was not kind and showed off: "Today is a 105-caliber live ammunition shooting, and tomorrow there will be a 150-caliber live ammunition shooting. You must come and take a look."

I..., Xu Shaojie almost blurted out a curse word. There is no way it would be so offensive!

Fang Jianxiong looked at Cheng Zhixuan with a stern look and said: "How dare you be proud of this achievement? If the artillery can't hit accurately, the infantry will have to pay for it with their lives. I think you need to strengthen your ideological study in this area!"

Cheng Zhixuan's reaction was to stand at attention and loudly promised: "Please rest assured, Sir, I promise to practice the quality that every shot will hit!"

At this time, Li Muyan came over, and when he saw Fang Jianxiong, he smiled and said: "Sir, the United States has called back. Mr. Fisher took it upon himself to buy a hundred cars and ship them out a month ago, and he also recruited drivers to follow.

It’s back. It’s expected to arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest.”

Fang Jianxiong was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Okay, Fisher is indeed reassuring." He took the telegram and looked at it carefully. Fisher reported in the telegram that the negotiation with the American oil tycoon Mobil Oil has been completed, and the other party will pay a one-time payment.

Fifty million US dollars to purchase 80% of the shares of Petroleum Mexico. Fisher expressed regret for this, thinking that if he persisted a little longer, he might have achieved better results. Unfortunately, Fang Jianxiong made it very clear that he was waiting for the money now.

However, Fisher had to make some concessions.

After reading the telegram, Fang Jianxiong sighed and said: "We took advantage of Mobil Oil and took over the Mexican oil field for only 50 million US dollars. Call Fisher back and recruit as many skilled workers as possible from the United States to Wuhu. In addition, inform Fisher that let

Don't be in a hurry to come back and lobby steel, radio, automobile manufacturing and other companies in the United States to set up factories in China."

When Xu Shaojie heard about 50 million U.S. dollars, he almost fainted. What's deplorable is that Fang Jianxiong actually thought it was too little. Can you please stop this! This is U.S. dollars! A currency linked to gold!

After seeing the heavy artillery, Fang Jianxiong took Xu Shaojie to the Second Division. The division commander Jansen came out to greet him. Xu Shaojie was also surprised to see that the German was actually the division commander. Fang Jianxiong explained: "Our army lacks senior officers, so we can only use German

Fortunately, they are all my subordinates when I was studying abroad in Germany. They are willing to come back to China with me, so you can use them with peace of mind."

The second division has recruited 80% of the "bandits" and has been practicing to the death recently! Especially the light machine gunners, the sound of buzzing on the shooting range never stopped, and Xu Shao frame was attracted to them in an instant.

When he saw the Bren machine guns, Xu Shaojie was quite speechless. They were lined up in a row. At least fifty of them were shooting targets. There were people waiting behind them. Visually, there were a hundred of them at the scene. The war was imminent, and live ammunition was being fired everywhere in the Wuhu Army.

, the amount of ammunition consumed every day is a frightening figure. Xu Shaojie also noticed that even the rifles are pointed bullets. Then he saw the mortar live-fire training, which was an eye-opener along the way. The fatigue of running around and working hard came with him.

As he gradually became numb, Xu Shaoji became a little listless.

Han Ming got up after sleeping and followed Duan Feng to take a look at the situation. When he saw Xu Shaojie yawning constantly, he remembered that the adults had not rested and hurriedly went to tell Yang Yanchang, who was also shocked. Feelings Xu Shaojie last night

I haven't had much rest since I was here. I was running back and forth, so why did I forget this?

He quickly found Duan Feng and told him about this matter. Duan Feng became anxious all day long and hurriedly went to report. Fang Jianxiong was greatly ashamed after learning about it. He held Xu Shaojie's hand and said: "Mr. Xu is running for the revolution, and he still endures like this at such an old age! It's really true.

Jianxiong, a role model for our generation, is so careless that he didn't even ask about the situation of the adults."

Xu Shaojie waved his hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I'm just getting older. Going back ten years and staying up for three days is nothing."

Fang Jianxiong smiled and said: "Wuhu can prepare for military training with such peace of mind, thanks to the fact that the Ninth Town is at Ziling Pass, so the two Zhangs dare not act rashly! I know this in my heart."

Xu Shaojie couldn't take the credit, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's untrue. It's true that Er Zhang warned me about the Ninth Town, but it's not the main reason. I heard the master of the Governor's Office privately said that Zhu Jiabao went to Jiangning and met with Zhang Renjun

Later, he told him that Fang Jianxiong was good at training troops and had a deep scheming mind. He planned everything before taking action, and Wuhu could not be unprepared. Only then did he give up Zhang Renjun's intention of sending troops to Wuhu."

Fang Jianxiong couldn't help sighing after hearing this and said: "It was a miscalculation. I was thinking about Zhu Jiabao's kindness to me, so I let him go and sent someone to Jiangning. I never thought that it was because Jiangning did not send troops."

Li Muyan said it right: "No wonder Huyan Aobo sent people to tell him that he was tired of waiting in Dangtu and he didn't see any troops from Nanjing."

Fang Jianxiong smiled and said: "That's good, we can practice the team with peace of mind for a while. Tell Huyan Aobo, don't be careless. I'm keeping an eye on Jiangning, and the patrols along the river can't be relaxed. I'm still worried about Jiang Fang.

The battalion made a sneak attack by boat."

Xu Shaojie sighed secretly as he listened. Zhu Jiabao was indeed right. Fang Jianxiong had been prepared for it, but he was afraid that Jiang Ning would not send troops.

Joining forces with such a man who is good at using troops, with superior military strength and good equipment, is there any reason to be invincible?

"Fuguo, although our Ninth Town has been well-trained for a long time, the equipment is not small compared to your army." Xu Shaojie thought a little and took a shot first. After hearing this, Fang Jianxiong couldn't help but ponder and said: "Other new equipment may not be able to support it.

Your army is here, and some of the new Maxims can be allocated to your army. Well, I will support ten Maxims in the Ninth Town, and each one will come with 5,000 rounds of ammunition."

When Xu Shaoji heard this, he was extremely grateful. He held Fang Jianxiong's hand tightly and said, "I'm so grateful! If you need Ninth Town to reach out for something in the future, just say hello."

Fang Jianxiong smiled and did not show any politeness. When he turned back to send Xu Shaojie to rest, Fang Jianxiong said when there was no one around: "Master Xu, I don't ask for any help from the Ninth Town, I just want to have a few more friends. I hope you will have more friends in the future."

The Ninth Town, just don’t point your guns at the Anhui Revolutionary Army.”

After hearing this, Xu Shaoji couldn't help but think about it. Fang Jianxiong had been out for a long time, and Xu Shaoji fell asleep due to exhaustion.

Fang Jianxiong was not unreasonable. The main reason is that the internal fighting among these revolutionary parties is too fierce. After Sun Dapao comes back, will these people still tolerate Xu Shaojie to lead the Ninth Town? This matter is really hard to say. Think about the leaders of the Liberation Association.

Who are they? Tao Chengzhang, Zhang Taiyan, a group of gentlemen! They are not even allowed to join the Tongmenghui. The truth is not difficult to imagine.
