    After Wang Maoru took office as the president, he faced a lot of difficulties. After seeing off the Olympic athletes, Wang Maoru returned to Beijing and quickly inspected several major military regions under the accompaniment of Deputy Minister of National Defense Zhang Zuolin, namely  Beijing-Tianjin-Tang Garrison Military Region, Sulu Military Region, Liaore Military Region, Heiji Military Region, and Lianghu Military Region.  A few years ago, I would have only visited the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Military Region and the Sulu Military Region, the two military regions undergoing military reform.

    The first is the Eighth Group Army of the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Military Region. The military reform has basically been completed. There are three Type A infantry divisions, one Type B infantry division and two special forces divisions.  This year's establishment has been changed but the equipment has not been updated. After all, the reform of the National Defense Force cannot be achieved in one step. Cannons must be produced one by one, and tanks must be manufactured one by one. However, the Eighth Army is the first to realize the reform of the military system.  troops, so they took advantage.  All 20 Minjiu tanks produced before the end of the year were assigned to the Eighth Army. All 20 tanks were assigned to the 8th Armored Division by the Army Commander Wang Qiyuan. Several other division commanders were very depressed.

    After a baptism of turmoil, the Eighth Army understood the importance of ideological unity. Wang Maoru no longer asked the soldiers to be loyal to him over and over again in a daily brainwashing style, but asked the soldiers to be loyal to the country and loyal to the country.  To the army, loyal to the nation.  This is more about modernizing the military than puppeteering.  But Wang Maoru's influence in the army for many years is still there. After seeing Wang Maoru, the soldiers still couldn't help shouting: "Long live the Generalissimo, long live the Generalissimo."

    Wang Maoru didn't care. Zhang Zuolin said with envy: "Whoever has the courage to rebel now has shit in his fucking head."

    Wang Maoru conducted "One Army, One Voice" in the Eighth Army.  "A Leader" speech requires that the military must take obedience as its bounden duty and serve the people of the country.  The content of the speech "One Army, One Voice, One Leader" was also distributed to each unit by the Military Affairs Headquarters, requiring each unit to study and emphasize the necessity of obedience.

    After inspecting the Eighth Army for five days, Wang Maoru and Zhang Zuolin rushed to the Eleventh Army of the Sulu Military Region without stopping. Compared with the reform of the Eighth Army, the reform of the Eleventh Army was slower.  Before and after comparison.  Wang Maoru immediately urged Xu Zhengyi to complete the task efficiently. Xu Zhengyi quickly smiled and said that he would complete the task.

    But during the inspection of the Eleventh Army, something unexpected happened. A group of lazy people took over the mountain and became kings.  Through illegal means, he purchased several rifles, robbed several landlords of their nursing home weapons, and recruited a large group of poor people who did not want to produce and had no ability.  They just occupied the mountain and became kings, but the place they occupied was exactly when Wang Maoru was inspecting.  The place where the 211th Regiment of the 31st Infantry Division under the Eleventh Army conducts military exercises.

    Originally, the 211th Regiment¡¯s military exercises were fully armed cross-country, rapid assembly and mobilization and other combat preparation tasks. Unexpectedly, the place they had just spotted the day before was taken over by such a group of people the next day.

    It can be said that they were very unlucky. The bandit leader was called Tiger Tyrant, and he was born with a tiger head and a tiger brain.  A pair of big eyes are piercing, and the golden ring knife in his hand is said to be watertight.

    When Wang Maoru learned that the exercise site was occupied by a group of stupid bandits, he burst out laughing. Lao Zhang was also so happy that he slapped his thigh and said, "What the fuck? How come these mountain cannons can't even insert the lottery? What a fool."  The beard is so bad." What Lao Zhang said was slang, and the bandits were divided into four beams and eight pillars.  The four beams are respectively military advisor, cannon head, money and food, and sentry. The eight pillars are responsible for collecting debts, guarding, preparing horses, being the bodyguard of the boss, inquiring about information, delivering information and documents. The meaning of inserting lots is to inquire about information.

    Compared with Lao Zhang, the bandit Hu Batian is a little too young. Who is Lao Zhang? He is the bandit king of the Northeast. The Guandong bandits are not called for nothing. Although Lao Zhang is small, he was in the land of Guandong.  Lao Zhang's banner was loud and clear.  So when I heard that there was such a group of bandits, Lao Zhang's eyes lit up. He met the bandit's grandson!

    When grandpa met his grandson, Lao Zhang suddenly became energetic.

    Wang Maoru also started to laugh, but he became playful. He said that he must play a little game with Zhang Zuolin, and then said: "Brother Qi, it will take a while, how about we make a bet?"

    Zhang Zuolin asked with a smile: "How to bet? You are a bitch, you are a fox, are you trying to trick me?"

    Wang Maoru immediately shook his head and cried out: "Brother Qi, you are not much less minded than me. It is not certain who tricked whom. Listen to me, I bet they can wipe out this bandit in less than an hour."

    Zhang Zuolin took a telescope and carefully looked at the size of the cottage. He thought about it in his mind and said, "What the hell! It seems that every month the cottage is built, there are many flags, probably a small thousand people. But the bandits in the pass are  , there are more bluffers, not like bandits outside the customs.Son of a bitch, relatively honest.  I guess there are at least 500 people. This battle is not easy to fight.  Okay, let¡¯s bet!  If it takes more than an hour, I win.  Zhang Zuolin glared and said with a bad smile, and then said to other staff officers: "You should also take a look."  "

    The other staff officers all graduated from regular military academies, so they could understand the layout of the bandit's village, so they shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

    Zhang Zuolin smiled and said: "It seems that this matter needs to be handled by me, a 'professional'."

    "What are you betting on?" Wang Maoru asked confidently.

    Lao Zhang thought for a while, Xiaodou's eyes started to roll, and he suddenly smiled meaningfully: "President, how about this, I won't take advantage of you too much. It's so fucking stupid that we have more children. If  If you win, it will be up to him to choose which of your sons will marry which of my daughters in the future. If I win, it will be the other way around, what do you think?"

    Wang Maoru clapped his thigh and said with a smile: "Great, that's what I meant. Let's high-five as an oath."

    "Okay!" Zhang Zuolin clapped his hands with him and laughed: "What a bastard, a group of bandits, but they helped our two families become in-laws, hahahaha!"

    Xu Zhengyi, the commander of the 11th Army, glared at Kou Yingjie, the commander of the 31st Infantry Division, and said: "Why are you still standing there and giving orders not to suppress the bandits? Are you waiting for me to command the army?"  "

    Kou Yingjie, the commander of the 31st Division, immediately saluted and said, "Yes." He quickly ran down and started arranging manpower to suppress the bandits.  Of course, this task is obliged to be completed by the 211th Regiment. The other regiments are in mourning. Well, the 211th Regiment has taken over all the good things.  Kou Yingjie said: "Within one hour, I will capture the top of the mountain. If you don't capture the top of the mountain, I will capture your heads! Is it a hit?"

    The 211th Regiment happened to be fully armed, with full weapons and ammunition, and higher morale. The President and the Undersecretary of Defense were watching. The 211th Regiment would be embarrassed if they did not fight well, so under the leadership of the regiment leader Fan Guisheng, they immediately killed them.  .  The 211th Regiment is the main regiment of the 31st Division, and can even directly mobilize the artillery of the 31st Division during the war. So the telegram was sent, and in less than three minutes, the artillery of the 31st Division threw artillery shells at the bandit hilltops.  Since there were only 75 field guns at the division level, although this burst of artillery fire was very lively, it was actually not very powerful.  However, the bandits had never encountered such an opponent. They were so damn cruel. After twenty minutes of artillery fire, all the newly built houses on the mountain fell down.  At this time, the 211th Regiment had already prepared an encirclement. As soon as the artillery was over, the 211th Regiment immediately attacked.

    The 211th Regiment really gave Wang Maoru credit. The battle ended in fifty-eight minutes. A group of bandits only had ninety guns, two hundred and eighty swords and spears. The 211th Regiment escorted more than a hundred alive bandits down the mountain. After inspection, the bandits were found.  There were really five hundred and twenty people, and Lao Zhang thought it was really good.

    Fifty-eight minutes, the modern army killed the bandit armed forces.

    Xu Zhengyi was happily waiting for Wang Maoru to praise him, but Wang Maoru scolded him and said that there will be bandits in the Sulu area. It's your problem. Why should you take credit? It's better if you don't withdraw.  Xu Zhengyi looked resentful and depressed, secretly shouting: "Why am I so unlucky? I can't kill all these bandits."

    "But after Wang Maoru finished scolding, he felt something was wrong. He was no longer the chief of defense, but the president. Why did he curse in the tone of the chief of defense?  He looked up at Zhang Zuolin. Zhang Zuolin laughed loudly. Wang Maoru couldn't help laughing, but the others didn't understand what was going on.

    After a few days of inspection, the two took a plane back to Beijing. On the plane, Wang Maoru asked Zhang Zuolin: "Brother Seven, is the bet still settled?"

    Zhang Zuolin said: "One mouthful of foam and one nail, how come it doesn't count?"

    Wang Maoru smiled and said: "Then Brother Qi, you will have to pay for your daughter."

    "I, Zhang Nengsheng, can afford the compensation." Zhang Zuolin laughed, but he immediately said: "It's really unfair this time. We are not even a regiment, but we actually asked the artillery behind to support us. It's so fucking unfair.  It¡¯s not fair, I¡¯ll find a chance to bet with you next time.¡±

    "Okay, Seventh Brother, as long as you are not afraid of losing to me, hahaha." Wang Maoru smiled, but recalling his performance in the Sulu Military Region, he was a little embarrassed. He was the president, so why did he directly scold the commander of another army?  He said politely: "Always treat yourself as a soldier. Some habits cannot be changed."

    ¡°You¡¯re so fucked up, it¡¯s okay, haha.¡± Zhang Zuolin touched his bald head and smiled, and after a while he suddenly said: ¡°Brother Xiu Sheng, I want to ask you something.¡±

    "What's the matter? Why do you need to ask for help?" Wang Maoru said.

    Zhang Zuolin blushed and said: "Xiao Liuzi's dissolute temper is really unbearable in the army. He violated military regulations several times. If he hadn't been considerate of the fact that he is my Lao Zhang's son, he would have been expelled from the army long ago. I tried to let him succeed me.  The mantle is no longer good, so let him go into politics. You are just doing a small favor for your brother. There is really nothing that can be done about this kid.Got mixed up in the army.  "
