    Zhang Zongxian went all out and acted like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water. After stupidly lowering his chips, he showed a tough attitude that would not give in.  But this kind of attitude is in Mao Renfeng's eyes "Can't you test my bottom line first and start using chips? What you do makes me very embarrassed, do you know?" Mao Renfeng was very hurt in her heart.  It was as if he saw a product he liked in the market. He bought it at the price of ten yuan, and then the stall owner told him very arrogantly that it would be three yuan or less.  When Mao Renfeng was stunned, the other party thought that he was going to hesitate, so he lowered the price again, two yuan, one copper less, and there was no door.  How can Mao Renfeng continue?  He would never say out loud that I originally planned to buy it for ten dollars.  And the message sent to him by the Marshal's Mansion asked him to calm down the emotions of the Fifth Division first.  This was despite the sky-high asking price for the fifth division.  He would never be so rich as to say that the commander-in-chief will give you special treatment and give you the equipment of a mixed brigade.  This equipment is not difficult for the Zhejiang Army, which already has a full set of military production capabilities.  Because the Zhejiang Army has no plans to expand its army in the near future.  Many local warlords in the Republic of China believed that things are easier to do when there are more people. Only with more troops can they have the capital to dominate the world.  But what if a division of tens of thousands of troops cannot defeat a regiment of more than two thousand people?  This is an imbalance in military strength.  The Fifth Division is already out of balance with the Zhejiang Army in terms of equipment and combat capabilities.  If this gap is not bridged, a growing distance will arise between the two.  Logically speaking, Mao Renfeng has every reason to show off his sense of superiority. Like a nouveau riche, he laughed at Zhang Zongxian for having no ideals and for being a salty fish who doesn't know how to stand up.  Just throw away the rags. This is a beggar's march. As a person, you must have a broader vision. Follow the Zhejiang Army. In the future, you must look at the whole country and the world. Our future is a sea of ??stars, not a stinking ditch.  But he can¡¯t say that!  The reason is that he is an agent, or to put it mildly, he is the master¡¯s confidant.  But there are many types of confidants. For example, Chen Brai is Wang Xueqian's confidant, isn't Dai Li the same?  But Chen Bulei can speak publicly and represent Wang Xueqian's wishes to a large extent, but can Dai Li do it?  If he really dares to do this, most people probably don¡¯t want to live anymore.  The same goes for Mao Renfeng. From the day he entered the Secrecy Bureau, he has been living in the shadows. He has friendship with high-ranking military officials and offers benefits. This is something he cannot reach out to.  If Zhang Zong asked for a division's equipment first, of course he could reveal his trump card and enter bargaining mode.  Because in that case, he is the one who lowers the price and is considered a villain.  This is also his only chance to show his value and ability.  But the problem is, Zhang Zongxian's small-minded asking price completely eliminates the possibility of Mao Renfeng's "establishing a career". Does this make him not annoyed?  But if he acts like a good guy at every turn and feeds the appetites of the people in the Fifth Division, not to mention his colleagues, even Wang Xueqian will be worried that the people in the Secret Bureau have begun to put their minds into the upper echelons of the army to handle intelligence and own the army.  Control After completing this step, it's time to take over the big boss.  Although Wang Xueqian is kind to others compared to other marshals, if there are any signs of shaking the foundation of his rule, he will eradicate the Secrecy Bureau without hesitation.  Mao Renfeng thought with a strange expression: "It turns out that I can never be a good person in this life!" On the contrary, Zhang Zongxian stared at the other party nervously. He was worried that the asking price was too high. According to the going prices in the Republic of China, in addition to bullets and machine guns,  In addition, there are also some equipment such as shell guns. The total value of the arms he wants is about 400,000 silver dollars.  If the equipment of an artillery company is given, then the total amount is about 600,000 silver dollars.  On the surface, 600,000 silver dollars doesn¡¯t seem like a lot of money to buy into a place!  By comparison, the asking price of the Fifth Division is already very high. In the last direct war between Feng and Feng, Feng Yuxiang's strength was completely equivalent to that of an army of Feng Army, with an army of 70,000 to 80,000 people, and the Northwest Army was brave.  Good at fighting, Feng Yuxiang is also a general with great talent in military training.  But how much money did Zhang Zuolin give to Feng Yuxiang to rebel?  It is estimated that 2 million is not needed.  In fact, at this time, Zhang Zuolin had already sent his confidant Zhang Zuoxiang to contact Feng Yuxiang. The reason why they could not reach an agreement was that the money given was too little. Feng Yuxiang felt that it was not worthwhile and did not agree.  "Feng Yuxiang's army is ten times larger than the Fifth Division, and it has a solid territory.  Being poor means being a little poorer, but no matter how poor you are, you still have your own home, right?  Of course, Feng Yuxiang's character has been ruined. If he can get the reputation of a defecting general, no one dares to truly regard him as an ally.?Look at.  However, Zhang Zuolin believed that the benefits given to Feng Yuxiang were too many and not worth it.  He gave half of the offer a try first, but Feng Yuxiang refused adamantly when faced with a huge sum of millions.  To other commanders, it may be that he has a strong character and is loyal.  But Feng Yuxiang this guy obviously disliked the money given by Fengjun, which was too little.  But what does the fifth division have?  There is nothing, not even the territory can be guaranteed, and the combat effectiveness is out of the question.  In fact, even the commander of the Fifth Division, Zheng Shiqi, was puzzled. He couldn't see the reason why Wang Xueqian liked his Fifth Division. The 7,000-man army seemed to be decent.  But if a war really breaks out, it's hard to say.  It¡¯s not unusual for someone to lose their skills along the way. The key is that the equipment is so impressive that I haven¡¯t changed my equipment for at least fifteen years.  Most of the weapons are from the Guangxu period The problems caused by the equipment alone are piling up.  The only advantage is probably that the munitions department of the Fifth Division can reach the top level of the Republic of China in terms of weapons repair technology.  While waiting nervously, Mao Renfeng finally spoke: "I will report your request to the Marshal's Mansion as soon as possible. I don't know how to reply, but since our Zhejiang Army comes with sincerity, I will not  It will disappoint the brothers of the Fifth Division. " Mao Renfeng's words can only go so far. For him, saying anything more is a step beyond his reach.  ¡°However, he also had a requirement that the report must be personally approved by General Zheng Shiqi before reporting it, otherwise he himself would not be able to shoulder such a responsibility.  Zhang Zongxian waved his hand, and naturally it was no problem. This was all promised, and there was no need to go back on it.  Besides, the commander of the fifth division is not of a high status.  If Zheng Shiqi is now the governor of Shandong, there will be two things to say.  Even the Zhejiang Army cannot allow the Fifth Division to surrender, and can only form an alliance as the bottom line.  That night, after meeting General Zheng Shiqi, Mao Renfeng said that the Zhejiang Army attaches great importance to the cooperation attitude of the Fifth Division. If you have any questions, you can use the radio station he brought to contact Zhejiang.  In this regard, Zheng Shiqi also expressed satisfaction.  The news was delivered to Zhejiang, but it was only about an hour or two later.  Wang Xueqian held a temporary meeting to discuss who to send.  The low status made the fifth division feel contemptible and not taken seriously enough.  With a high status, the location where the Fifth Division is located is too embarrassing. Wang Xueqian will definitely not go back. How can he fall into a dangerous situation with his golden body?  And others I'm afraid they are not suitable either. Now Lu Yongxiang's attitude is subtle. This person and Zhejiang are only maintaining a superficial peace.  There is even the possibility of tension between the two sides.  ¡° Moreover, this person cannot be too sensitive.  Zhang Zaiyang actually wanted to go to Shandong. He entered the Zhejiang Army system completely passively.  He is the representative of the local faction of the old Zhejiang Army, and his influence has never gone beyond Zhejiang. Compared with another local faction, Zhou Fengqi, Zhang Zaiyang's performance is quite satisfactory and he has never thought of exceeding his ability.  He never thought about taking charge of Zhejiang.  Especially the former Second Division of the Zhejiang Army, which was the first Zhejiang native unit to be adapted, which gave him a lot of points in front of Wang Xueqian.  But even so, Zhang Zaiyang still has his own embarrassment. Since he entered Wang Xueqian's staff, he has not made any achievements But Wang Xueqian still regarded his "contribution to the dragon" and appointed him as the provincial governor.  On the surface, it seems that this trip to Shandong is full of dangers. The most you can do is to be detained and detained for a period of time.  "It is rare to say that local warlords in the Republic of China would use any means to deal with hostile forces. At least they would not kill them unless they offended the other party.  These are the rules of the game in the officialdom of the Republic of China, and no one will deliberately break them.  Back then, Xu Shuzheng killed Feng Yuxiang¡¯s uncle, Lu Jianzhang.  Originally, the two sides would not deal with each other, and after the Anhui clique came to power, Lu Jianzhang betrayed the information on a large scale, and even contacted Fengjun and the Zhili clique to discuss jointly dealing with the Anhui clique.  Just like this, after Xu Shuzheng killed Lu Jianzhang, Duan Qirui was also shocked. It was a pity that Xu Shuzheng should not have done it.  Whether Lu Jianzhang should die or not is one thing, but he is a high-level general after all. Xu Shuzheng undoubtedly broke the rules by taking action.  Thinking of this, Zhang Zaiyang thought that even if someone saw through his itinerary, his life would probably be safe.  Even if we want to take action, it still depends on the face of the Zhejiang Army and even Wang Xueqian.  After all, the Zhejiang Army was angered. Anyone south of the Yellow River basically didn¡¯t dare to pat their chests and say that they could win against the Zhejiang Army.  Not to mention winning, even not losing would be pretty good.  Considering Zhejiang's strength, it won't be too difficult for him.  So, Zhang Zaiyang said: "Commander, everyone. Zhang has the audacity to ask for this mission." "Mr. Zhang is not suitable!" Unexpectedly, Wang Xueqian was the first to refuse: "I just want to bribe a local power, the Fifth Division is not  It is worthy of our efforts.The main reason is that the situation in the northern war is confusing. The Japanese can accept one defeat and two defeats but Zhang Zuolin is absolutely not allowed to treat the Zhili-Fengtian War as an exercise.  Zhang Zuolin can afford it, but the Japanese government certainly can't afford it.  " Jiang Fangzhen also opened his mouth and continued Wang Xueqian's words: "Last year, one of the reports from the Economic Research Institute caught my attention.  " "Oh, Brother Baili, don't you think that economy and military are two completely different fields and are irrelevant?  " This troubled man has a kind expression. He treats everyone the same, but he has differences with Jiang Fangzhen on the concept of building an army. The reason is mostly due to their mutual experiences. This is Wen Yingxing, who strongly advocates the military industry.  Civilian generals advocated the development of manufacturing, but for civilian use in peacetime and military use during wartime. And when orders were insufficient, the military purchased large quantities to help the industry move from the establishment stage to the mature stage. On the contrary, Jiang Fangzhen supported the military industry.  Representative of departmental independence. Of course, this is a difference in philosophy, which will not make Jiang Fangzhen look down on Wen Yingxing. But it is precisely Wen Yingxing's idea that Wang Xueqian has implemented this strategy, which seems to give people a feeling.  Wen Yingxing acted as Wang Xueqian's mouthpiece So, in Jiang Fangzhen's mind, Wen Yingxing was nicknamed "Flattery Wen". As a military strategist, he naturally has his arrogant side. Jiang Fangzhen combined German ideas and believed that.  Under the condition of insufficient industrialization, military industry specialization is easier to formulate than manufacturing standardization. Well, these are not the key points. The key point is that Zhejiang's war potential is constantly improving, and at the same time, the level of industrialization is also steadily improving. Jiang Fangzhen ignored it.  Others were joking, but continued: "Japan's investment in the navy exceeded 30% of the national finance last year. Even if the army gets one-third of the navy's military expenditure, two-fifths of the entire country's fiscal revenue will be lost.  into the army.  And this ratio is almost the same as Europe, where the war was most difficult.  " "And Japan is still developing its local industrialization and colonial professional agriculture model.  In fact, the agricultural output of the Korean Peninsula cannot meet the needs of Japan's more than 80 million people.  As a last resort, Japan can only adopt an administrative order that farmers must enter cities to work, and such an administrative order cannot last long.  ¡± ¡°So, according to my analysis, the Japanese government urgently needs an area with highly concentrated agriculture to solve the gap in domestic food and agricultural products.  The three northeastern provinces are undoubtedly its most profitable targets.  If Zhang Zuolin failed again in the Zhili-Fengtian War, the blow to Japan would be even greater than the blow he himself had to bear.  "  Wang Xueqian also had this judgment. He nodded and said: "Yes, Japan's current situation is that it is even more urgent for the army to enter the customs.  So once Fengjun enters the pass, it will be easy to say that Zhili will be defeated steadily.  In case the army is defeated, once Feng's army crosses the Yellow River, even if Zhejiang wants to stay in a corner, it will not be able to stay out.  They had to directly confront Fengjun, and the industry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang would definitely be hit hard.  " "So it will be much more beneficial to us to put the war on the banks of the Yellow River.  In addition, the railway from Shangqiu to Luoyang has been working overtime and will be opened to traffic next month" As soon as this news was announced, everyone's eyes lit up. Then the railway from Lianyungang to Luoyang will be unobstructed in the future. Once Feng Jun thought  If we want to go south, then Lu Yongxiang in Jiangsu will inevitably become the first place to fight. Even before the Zhi-Feng war, Jiangsu's ownership will be finalized. At that time, in order to fight against the Feng army, various groups in the south will briefly unite.  , Zhejiang, which is the most powerful, is likely to become the leader of the alliance. Defeating the Feng army's attempt to move south along the Yellow River will not only secure the leader's position, but also once this battle is won, Henan and Shandong will become unclaimed lands  It is not difficult to be brought under the command of the Zhejiang Army. The key is that with the convenience of railway transportation and the advantages of the navy, all the forces along the Yangtze River can be brought under their control. By then, the forces on the south bank of the Yellow River will not all belong to the Zhejiang Army.  The scope? For at most two years, annexing the entire south was not a dream. At that time, Fengjun's attempt to regain power was only to be defeated. In the Republic of China, the big man who wanted to unify was not.  No, but many. But they all failed for many reasons. The main reason is that Beiyang is too powerful. However, the terrain in the south is very changeable. Hunan has been fighting for more than ten years, which is a good explanation.  But is this a problem for the Zhejiang Army? Wang Xueqian paused and said solemnly: "So the role of the Fifth Division cannot be underestimated. This unit must exert great combat effectiveness in the short term. As long as the other party is sincere, I  The opinion is to ask people to give people, ?Give money to money, and give weapons to weapons According to the weapon ratio of the elite Zhejiang Army, this is a rare soldier and a force that will determine the future situation of the Republic of China.  The plenipotentiary who went to Shandong not only wanted to have a certain reputation in Beiyang, but also helped the Fifth Division reorganize and even formulate a defense plan.  Because the Fifth Division will go to the battlefield within half a year at the latest, I don't want the Fifth Division to recruit more troops. If there are too many recruits, the combat effectiveness will definitely be reduced.  And if they do this, there may be opposition within the Fifth Division. Only people they are familiar with think it is appropriate that no personal people go.  This person can represent the Fifth Division or the Zhejiang Army, but among us, there is only one person who is suitable, and that is Brother Baili.  " Jiang Fangzhen took a closer look. It is true that as Wang Xueqian said, there is only one person in the Zhejiang Army who can not be alienated in the Fifth Division. That person is himself. Jiang Fangzhen is in a surging mood. He seems to have been waiting for this day for a long time.  But he was also worried, what if the Fifth Division just wanted to make a profit and end?  ?  " " One million military expenditures, two million worth of weapons and equipment, this money, we can afford to lose completely.  In other words, even if the Fifth Division defected to the Zhejiang Army, would they still have a choice?  "Wang Xueqian said in a deep voice: "If they take refuge in Fengjun, they will die even worse. I don't believe Zheng Shiqi can't see the key.  ". a
