With a bang, the regiment leader's head was buzzing. When did I become unable to command the troops?
But the newly appointed battalion commander was pretty good. After letting the troops go to bed, he said to the regiment commander.
"It's not that brothers are disobedient, it's just that this matter is difficult to handle. Governor Nie has a great sense of justice. It's easy for us big-head soldiers to talk about it. Once someone blames someone in the future, you officials won't be able to run away."
"Besides, if the eldest young master is fighting with his uncle, why should we get involved? The old man is not dead either."
"The cannon used by Governor Nie to bombard the concession. If it really hits our brothers a few times, who can bear it?"
The group leader was almost convinced. He felt that what his men said was reasonable.
It makes perfect sense.
So he went to his superior to explain.
Zhao Wencai was incompetent and furious. He couldn't command the army anyway.
At Shendu Station, Nie Li glanced at his brothers on the platform and delivered his final speech: "Brothers, what is our slogan?"
The soldiers below who were preparing to board the vehicle shouted loudly: "Kill the wild bears and destroy the Japanese pirates. This battle will not be won unless we win!"
"No victory, no return!"
This scene of the soldiers shouting in unison was recorded by reporters and made countless people's blood boil.
At this moment, they completely failed to realize the meaning of the words of Nie Li and the soldiers.
Immersed in the excitement, it spread all over the country.
Among the major warlords, with Nie Li taking the lead, those major warlords could no longer sit still.
If they don't say anything at this time. The reputation is completely over.
So, you, a mixed brigade, and he, a main battle group, sent out troops one after another, but in terms of scale, compared to Nie Li, they were far behind.
Nie Li has one division and one brigade, and his firepower configuration is even more superb.
The military column drove slowly until it reached Fengtian Railway Station, which was considered the end point.
dark night.
It was the first month of the year, and the weather in Fengtian was very cold.
Ice particles were everywhere, and people exhaled in vain.
At this moment, at Fengtian Railway Station, Zhang Dapao was less than 1.7 meters tall, wearing a general officer's woolen uniform, followed by Fengtian troops and government officials, standing on the platform of the station waiting.
A gentle man behind Zhang Dapao raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Old Qi, it's almost time for Governor Nie to arrive."
Zhang Dapao also took out his pocket watch to look at it and nodded: "Well, that's almost it."
"Sixth, tell the brothers to be alert. Governor Nie is here to support our three provinces. We must make people feel at home."
Behind him, Sun Lie, the sixth man, said with a smile: "Don't worry, everything is ready. The big bone soup and the big white steamed buns have been arranged for a long time."
Zhang Dapao smiled and said: "That's good. We can't lose the face of our three provinces. Didn't Tiaobenji support a group of geishas like us a while ago? Make arrangements for it too."
While the two brothers were talking.
A train whistle sounded.
Zhang Dapao's eyes lit up: "Here he comes!"
He shouted to the back: "Everyone has it, please be more energetic, don't lose our Fengtian's face!"
"Yes, Overseer."
The train slowly stopped at the station, and Zhang Dapao was waiting for people to get off the station.
The first person to come down was a group of people, probably several hundred people.
Rush to the platform.
"Everyone is on alert!"
"Take a break, stand at attention! Look to the right!"
"Count!"
"1234...."
Neat military appearance, uniform movements, all of them were over 1.75 meters tall, carrying guns and serious faces.
Zhang Dapao and his men were shocked!
Zhang Dapao glanced at Sun Lie.
"It's not easy."
Sun Lie also nodded solemnly: "You have such a great reputation. You are worthy of being someone who dares to bombard the concession. You really do have a few brushes."
Putting aside everything else, the mere formation of the troops was something that no ordinary army could do.
The soldiers in the carriage appeared one by one. They are all dressed in black coats and wrapped tightly. With this equipment and style, they will definitely kill all the domestic troops in an instant.
The helmets were worn tightly on their heads, the soldiers carried their guns and got out of the car quickly.
After everyone got off the bus, there was no chaos at all.
They all stood in line outside their carriage doors.
Staring straight ahead, motionless.
This shocked all the officials in Fengtian.
In the first car, Guo Xing stood in front of Nie Li: "Brother, Governor Zhang is personally waiting outside to greet you!"
Nie Li was wearing the uniform of a general of the national government and a thick coat. When he heard Guo Xing's words, he smiled: "Let's get out of the car. Don't keep Governor Zhang waiting!"
In the first car, Nie Li got off the car with escorts on the left and right, and saw Zhang Dapao as soon as he got off the car.
He stepped forward quickly and stretched out his hands in a very humble manner.
"Governor Zhang, I have admired his name for a long time, and today I finally saw the true god."
Zhang Dapao looked at Nie Li's young, handsome and extraordinary height, stretched out his hands, and smiled: "Brother Nie, I have long heard that Brother Nie is better-looking than the other four young masters. When I saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary. "
Nie Li laughed loudly: "It's just a skin. I'm face blind and can't tell the difference between beauty and ugliness!"
Zhang Dapao laughed out loud when he heard this statement for the first time: "Brother Nie is really funny."
Holding Nie Li's hand: "Brother Nie can support our three provinces, especially Fengtian. I, Zhang Dapao, would like to thank you."
Nie Li also said boldly: "This is our land of China, how can we allow foreign enemies to wreak havoc? This battle will be won or lost! Brother Zhang, please don't bother me."
Zhang Dapao was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "If this is where you are, it's not too late for me to welcome you."
"Come, Brother Nie, let me introduce you. These are my sworn brothers."
Nie Li exchanged greetings one by one.
About five minutes later.
Zhang Dapao then said: "Brother Nie, the camp has been arranged for you, and good wine and meat have been arranged. Brothers, relax after a long journey."
Nie Li smiled and declined: "Nie Li is not polite about the meat rice, but let's forget about the wine. Our army has discipline. Once the war breaks out, alcohol is prohibited in the army."
Zhang Dapao and his brothers were stunned by these words. Drinking is not allowed in the army?
What's the point of living then?
How can you fight with them?
Zhang Dapao was also surprised and said: "Brother Nie, we brothers are all doing stupid things. It's okay to drink a little wine, right? And drinking a little wine can also improve your combat effectiveness."
Nie Li smiled and said nothing.
Relying on blood and courage can only maintain temporary combat effectiveness.
An army that can carry and fight is not made up of bloody bravery and drunken soldiers, but is made up of iron discipline and faith.
These are the differences between the new army and the old army.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Dapao's troops and Lao Yuan's troops are both old armies.
