Chapter 122 Automatic Rifle
The presence of the First Gendarmerie Regiment of the Renqiu Barracks is a good thing for both the Student Brigade and the First Gendarmerie Regiment.The contest between Zhang Dali and Shan Renxiong set a tone for the relationship between the two sides, which directly led to the high enthusiasm of the officers and soldiers of the two sides for training, and they obviously wanted to compare each other.

That night, when Ouyang Yun returned to the barracks, he saw a well-groomed army in the camp, and asked Li Tieshu, "You're here?"

Li Tieshu smiled and told about the martial arts competition, Ouyang Yun's eyes lit up when he heard it, and said, "Then Zhang Dali will be rewarded?"

"award?"

"Of course we'll be rewarded, it's honor for our apprentice brigade!"

Li Tieshu rubbed his head: "It's just a discussion among friendly troops. Isn't the reward a disguised form to encourage everyone to fight for strength? If Zhang Zhen and the others know about it, is there any suspicion of being a villain?"

Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "Isn't it good to fight for strength? Don't you think this will increase everyone's enthusiasm for training? Rewards can't be done openly, but secretly. Of course, at least let our soldiers know. Prizes can be given." Be special, like sending one of your autographed pistols or something."

"My autographed pistol, that's not a gift for you. You're an 'anti-Japanese duo', so let's make this decision. By the way, how's the situation at the steel plant?"

"That's right. The quality of the steel is not bad. There are a few workers who are very spiritual. After a week or so, I can let go."

"I heard that General Zhang's team and the Japanese joined forces in Tianjin Mao. I don't know if there will be a war."

"I can't fight, but..." Ouyang Yun suddenly laughed as he spoke.

Li Tieshu looked at him in surprise, and asked, "Why are you so happy?"

Ouyang Yun looked at the officers and soldiers of the military police regiment who were still training not far away, and said, "Didn't the "He Mei Agreement" stipulate that the national army cannot enter North China? This military police regiment is the national army, right?"

Li Tieshu nodded: "It's still the elite of the national army."

"Do you think Lao Jiang dares to start a war with the little devil now?"

"Don't dare, otherwise He Yingqin wouldn't have signed the "He Mei Agreement."

"Then what do you mean by Lao Jiang sending the Gendarmerie Regiment to Renqiu at this time?"

"Maybe because of Renqiu's oil."

"The reason must be this, but the question is, can the little devil make him get what he wants? Hehe, I can conclude that the main reason why Lao Jiang sent this elite team is to mix it up. Control the student brigade through the military police regiment, and then Indirectly control Ren Qiu. If my guess is correct, our student brigade may be used as a bargaining chip to separate from 29 in the next step, and you may have a chance to become a warlord."

Li Tieshu thought about it, and felt that there was indeed a possibility. He said with a smile, "How could it be me? If there is a warlord, it would be you."

Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "Neither the Japanese nor the national government would want me to occupy Renqiu, but it would be different if you did it. I just don't know what the commander Song will do. But no matter how you say it, Mr. Jiang is destined to steal the chicken this time without losing money."

Outsiders don't know the real intention of Chiang Kai-shek's military police regiment to Renqiu, but the development of the current situation has confirmed Ouyang Yun's speculation. It was separated from the 29th Army and became an independent division, and Renqiu also became a "special economic zone" independent of the Yicha Political Committee.

At this time, more than three weeks had passed since the First Gendarmerie Regiment entered Renqiu.

The establishment of the Yicha Political Committee was the result of the National Government's second compromise with Japan.On the second day after the Gendarmerie Corps entered Renqiu, Doihara found He Yingqin and issued a strong protest. In the afternoon, he dispatched 15 planes to show off and drop a large number of leaflets demanding "North China autonomy" over Pingjin.Then, Takahashi Tan represented North China to hoard the garrison, and proposed the "North China Financial Emergency Defense Outline" to Song Zheyuan, requesting the prohibition of current bank transfers to the South, and the removal of Zhang Zizhong from his post, otherwise all consequences of the Tianjin incident will be borne by the 29th Army.The next day, Nanjiro issued the Operation Order No. 751, ordering the mixed independent brigades to form Chenshanguan, Gubeikou and other places, so that the cruiser Kuma and the destroyer Qingdao Huo at Lushunkou would sail to Dagukou in Tanggu, Tianjin, and dispatched The fighter planes of the two squadrons took turns circling over Beiping to show off their force.At the same time, the Japanese secret agents and military police stationed in Beiping began to arrest anti-Japanese activists.

For a while, Pingjin and Tianjin were shrouded in the cloud of war, and the people felt that it was difficult to breathe, and the war seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.

Under the influence of the Japanese, Song Zheyuan first made concessions and strictly ordered Zhang Zizhong to withdraw from the guard camp; followed by He Yingqin, with the help of representatives from the United Kingdom and the United States, and started negotiations with Doihara. The result was that North China’s autonomy was recognized in exchange for Japan’s cancellation of military operations 29. Release the arrested persons, use Song Zheyuan to submit an application to delay the reform of legal currency in North China, and set up a separate special economic zone in Renqiu. Japanese and British and American businessmen enjoy the same treatment and can jointly participate in the development of Renqiu.Regarding the candidates for Renqiu's executive officer and the commander of the independent division of Xuebing, the national government proposed that Zhang Zhen should be in charge, and the 29th Army would of course support Ouyang Yun. For: Ouyang Yun served as the director of Ren Qiu Jingsui and the commander of the Brigade, Zhang Zhen was the director of training and the commander of the 1st Brigade, Ji Xingwen was the chief of staff and the commander of the 2nd Brigade, Li Tieshu was the deputy commander and the commander of the 3rd Brigade , Guo Biao was the deputy chief of staff and concurrently the commander of Qiu Baoan.Interestingly, Pan Yugui, whom Ouyang Yun hated the most, was also pushed in by Song Zheyuan and the Japanese, and took up the post of Deputy Director of Jingsui.

Ouyang Yun's appointment was signed by the Executive Yuan and the Military Commission. On the day when the two appointment letters were delivered to him at the same time, he went to Nanyuan to seek an audience with Song Zheyuan.

For such a result, Song Zheyuan was very heartbroken, but the situation was stronger than others, and he had no choice but to meet Ouyang Yun with a forced face and a smile.

No one understands Song Zheyuan's mood at this time better than Ouyang Yun, so he expressed his loyalty when they met, saying that the 29th Army and the military seat will not lose any shares in Renqiu Enterprise. The armament will also be given priority to the 38th Division stationed around Tianjin.

Song Zheyuan's heartache is actually this point. Hearing his assurance, his brows and eyes widened a lot, and he encouraged him: "Ouyang, Ren Qiu is now the territory of the apprentice army division, which is good for you to let go and work hard. Just do it well." , I and all the soldiers of the 29th Army will stand behind you and support you."

Ouyang Yun nodded, thanked him solemnly, and then began to complain: "Junzuo, what's going on? Renqiu is our Chinese territory, why let the Japanese point fingers? That Pan Yugui is really, actually The entire 'Japan Economic Aid Group for Friendship with China', what economic aid group, is clearly here to plunder our resources."

After all, Pan Yugui was the puppet of the Japanese, and Song Zheyuan saw his true colors clearly at this moment, and said with a smile: "Ouyang, you have to thank the Japanese for their help in order to be able to sit in your current position. In terms of economic construction, the Japanese are indeed better than us. I have already inquired, those people in the economic aid group are indeed businessmen, and many of them have successful experience in setting up factories in Japan..."

Before he finished speaking, Ouyang Yun interrupted: "Junzuo, you know me, and you have always had an attitude towards the Japanese - you should kill them! It is impossible for me to cooperate with the Japanese, huh, that Doi was afraid The National Government controlled Ren Qiu to control the oil resources, which allowed us to take advantage of it. How could he really want to help? Military seat, you know, they and Lao Jiang’s people almost wiped out me in Hong Kong It’s gone, but I’m so lucky to let their wishful thinking come to nothing.”

Song Zheyuan nodded and said: "You are right. If it weren't for the Japanese wrestling with Lao Jiang, we would not be able to take advantage of this. Ouyang, I am relieved to hand over the Xuebing Brigade and Ren Qiu to you, but yours Temperament needs to be changed, our current strength is too weak to defend North China, so for now we should focus on accumulating strength through patience, and bear with the Japanese for the time being!"

Seeing that he used our name again, Ouyang Yun knew that he had recalculated the apprentice division into the ranks of the 29th Army, so he secretly smiled and said, "Thank you for your teaching, I have you backing me up, I have a lot of confidence." It's here." Then he turned and shouted outside: "Adjutant Liu, bring the things in."

Adjutant Liu was Liu Zheliang, he promised, and walked in with a cloth bag.Ouyang Yun finished the cloth bag, opened it, took out a rifle from it, handed it to Song Zheyuan and said, "Mr. Zuo, take a look, this is the first automatic rifle developed by the No. [-] Ordnance Factory."

Song Zheyuan, the famous name of the automatic rifle, has heard of it. Hearing this, his eyes lit up. He took it and looked at it carefully. He asked, "I heard that the automatic rifle can shoot continuously. How many times can this gun shoot with one reload?"

"Twenty times."

This gun is developed based on the G60A3 automatic rifle of the 3s of the Federal Republic of Germany. It has a length of 1050MM and an empty weight of 4.5KG. The speed is about 20 rounds per minute.The difference from the original gun is that the caliber has been enlarged to 315MM. The purpose of this is to consider the versatility of the ammunition, so it adopts the same caliber as the official one commonly used by the domestic army.

Song Zheyuan found out the performance parameters of this gun, and was very pleasantly surprised, saying: "With such performance, on the battlefield, it means that in the time it takes for a Japanese soldier to fire one shot, we can fire five or six shots or even more." He said The more I talked, the happier I was, and in the end I completely forgot that the student division had become independent, and clamored to give credit to the student who developed this gun, and to credit the great credit.

The reason why Ouyang Yun brought out this rifle during this trip was to dispel his vigilance. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he was immediately asked to name this rifle.

Song Zheyuan thought about it seriously, and finally named it "Wei Qing", taking the meaning of Wei Qing's resistance to foreign humiliation, and placed an order of [-] pieces at one time.
