Chapter 73
At around [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the training of the Academy Corps ended. The recruits and veterans fetched water to take a bath, and some people practiced on the training ground.Ouyang Yun finally waited until Li Tieshu was free, invited him to the only locust tree in the training ground, faced the setting sun, and said, "Brother Li, the military department informed me to go to Nanyuan for a meeting tomorrow."

After Song Zheyuan completed the mobilization of troops, as he reached a consensus with Lao Jiang's representative Xiong Bin, the 29th Army had the name of controlling Hebei, so the general headquarters moved from Zhangjiakou to Beiping Nanyuan, which was considered to be the beginning of formally taking over Hebei.The convening of a military meeting, which Ouyang Yun described as a pie-sharing, was imminent.

Li Tieshu was in the barracks, and the news was relatively closed. He asked, "Mr. Song has returned from Tianjin?"

"Well, Lao Jiang sent Xiong Bin to negotiate with him. The two sides have reached a consensus that the 29th Army will resolutely defend North China. Lao Jiang not only publicly acknowledges the current situation of our army, but also satisfies everything in terms of establishment, equipment, and military pay."

"Good thing!"

Ouyang Yun smiled wryly: "It's really a good thing, our apprentice regiment is going to be upgraded to an independent apprentice brigade."

Li Tieshu glanced at him and said, "You don't seem to be happy. Could it be that the brigade commander is someone else?"

"No, no, the brigade commander is probably me. However, the brigade commander is not so easy to be. Do you know why I can be the head of the student corps?"

"Isn't Commander Song cherishing talents?" Li Tieshu thought for a while and said, in his opinion, although Ouyang Yun is young, he is very skilled in fighting.

Ouyang Yun shook his head and said, "I asked for this regiment leader on my own initiative. For this reason, I have an agreement with Army Commander Song."

It was Guo Biao who delivered the meeting notice to Ouyang Yun.Guo Biao's newly promoted adjutant, speaking of it, has something to do with Ouyang Yun, and Song's chief adjutant has always been very close to the Japanese. Of course, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is actually what Song meant.As a result, after Song got into trouble with the Japanese because of Ouyang Yun's matter, he became a scapegoat and was sent to the guard regiment to serve as the battalion commander.

Originally, with Guo Biao's current status and status, he didn't need to do the small things of delivering meeting notices, but out of concern for Ouyang Yun, he specially asked for this job, just to sound the alarm for his little brother. .Because Song’s driver accompanied Guo Biao to deliver the letter——Guo Biao couldn’t drive, Guo Biao didn’t say anything in depth, but said to him meaningfully: “Ouyang, your promotion is really fast enough. , The 29th Army who became a brigade commander at your age is absolutely unprecedented, and the military seat is offering you as a cornucopia, don't you let him down!?"

Just for Guo Biao's words, Ouyang Yun knew that the establishment of the factory could not be delayed any longer.Although the relationship between him and Song Zheyuan looks very glamorous on the surface, one is to admire his name and sincerely rely on him, and the other is to let go of it because he admires him, but the parties involved know what is maintaining their delicate relationship——

It is the factory and industry that Ouyang Yun promised, the so-called "the future of the 29th Army".

Now that Song Zheyuan had fulfilled his promise, it was time for Ouyang Yun to show his performance. In this way, the matter of going to the United States became urgent.However, with the expansion of the Academy Corps into a brigade, there are naturally a lot of urgent affairs in the army. He came to Li Tieshu at this time to coordinate the matters of going abroad, setting up factories and expanding the army.

He truthfully narrated the scene when he and Song met for the first time. Li Tieshu was secretly amazed when he heard it. small touch.

After listening to his narration, Li Tieshu asked: "Then you will concentrate on running the factory?"

Ouyang Yun nodded and said, "Yes, so I need your help."

Li Tieshu said seriously: "Ouyang, since you trust me, I will not let you down, just tell me what you want."

"If you don't dare to be ordered, you are much better than me in leading troops. A few days ago, I received an invitation letter from the president of Harvard University in the United States, asking me to go for an interview. I would like to take this opportunity to purchase I have bought all the equipment and instruments. Now that the traffic is blocked, the trip may take several months, and I have to entrust all the domestic affairs to you. I am not very worried about Xuebingtuan, Langya and Hutong, but I am most worried It's the Secret Service Brigade. Brother Li, if I don't come back, I hope you can protect the 32 of them and hand them over to Commander Yu safely."

Li Tieshu frowned and said: "When you leave the teacher, you don't speak well beforehand, Ouyang, this is not like your style——I believe you will be able to come back safely!"

Ouyang Yun shook his head and smiled wryly. He only had this worry recently.As a time traveler, he is confident that he will not die in vain because he knows the direction of history like the palm of his hand and is protected by a body armor.But the world is unpredictable, who knows if a bullet will be fired from a corner and take him away directly? !He considered that since he has come and indeed holds the power to change the destiny of the country, wouldn't it be too unfair if he passed away without doing anything—considering that he will have a lot of things to be busy after he is stationed in Renqiu , He rushed to tell Li Tieshu these things at this time like an account of the funeral, on the one hand, just in case, and on the other hand, to stabilize Li Tieshu's heart.

If he is dead, who else in the country can protect and make good use of this power?After much deliberation, he finally decided to bet on Xuezhong——

Yu Xuezhong is now leading the 51st Army to "suppress bandits" in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region.Historically, he once served as a high-ranking official in Gansu, but was later removed from his post because of the "Xi'an Incident", and then moved to Jiangsu and Shandong to fight against Japan.He has always had a good impression of Taiwan, and he cooperated well with the Eighth Route Army during the Anti-Japanese War. After the Kuomintang defeated Taiwan in 49, he did not withdraw with Chiang.Ouyang Yun was very relieved to hand over the students of the Special Service Brigade to his care.

Of course, he could also hand them over directly to Mao Zedong, but considering the current strength of Mao Zedong and fear of future sports and other things, he proceeded from the perspective of thinking about the future of the students of the Special Service Brigade. I think it is better to leave them to Yu Xuezhong to protect them.

Under his influence, Li Tieshu now knows the role of the people's livelihood economy in the war. In the future, when he returns to Yu Xuezhong, he may be able to continue his unfinished business. For him, this time travel will not be difficult. For nothing.

In Ouyang Yun's mind, Hebei is definitely a treasure land because of the Renqiu oil field and a large number of high-quality iron ore areas. As long as it is well developed, it will not only be enough for the 29th Army to rely on Yicha to deal with the little devils for a few years or even By the end of the Anti-Japanese War, it is not impossible to build the 29th Army into the world's first-class and powerful army.

Due to the high internal pressure, the Renqiu oilfields were all direct injection wells developed in the early stage, and the mining cost and technical requirements were relatively low; while the iron mines in Yidong, Chengde Damiao, Chengde Heishan and other Hebei areas belonged to A, B-grade high-quality iron ore areas, some mining areas can even be mined in the open pit, and the cost of mining and refining will not be too high.The only thing that makes him feel comfortable is that Yidong and Chengde areas are currently in the demilitarized zone, which is actually in the hands of little devils. If it weren't for the fact that Chahar's Xuanhua and Chicheng areas also have large-scale mining areas, they could completely satisfy Yicha. The demand for iron in the two places, with his temperament, it is difficult to guarantee whether the Anti-Japanese War will break out early because of waiting for the iron to be cooked.

It is a pity that the current domestic industrial level is too low, especially in heavy industry, and some equipment has to be imported from Western countries. In this way, a trip to the United States is inevitable and necessary.Therefore, knowing that this trip to the United States must be full of dangers, he had to bite the bullet and go.

"I hope so, but everything is not absolute—" At this point, he held Li Tieshu's hand and said emotionally: "Brother Li, do you know what I'm most grateful for when I come back this time? It's just getting to know you." Help brother. I originally thought that most of the officers in the national army were incompetent and corrupt, but now I know that there are a lot of hot-blooded men. I won’t talk about the army commander, the tiger general of the country, let’s just say our 29th army , General Zhang Zizhong, General Feng Zhian, General Zhao Dengyu, and you, Brother Li, which one is not a passionate man who can serve the country with his own body? There are people like you in China. If you can’t win the little devil, it’s really unreasonable Already!"

At this time, the sun will go westward, and the evening sun will shine on his young face, covering his face with a layer of sunshine. After hearing his words from the bottom of his heart, Li Tieshu couldn't help saying emotionally: "Ouyang, what you said is too much. Well, China has never lacked hot-blooded men since ancient times, but it is often because of the cowardice of those in power that foreign thieves can take advantage of it again and again, making my great China a plaything in the hands of the great powers since the end of the Qing Dynasty—but as you said , as long as we are still alive, China will be stronger one day, Ouyang, promise me! Be sure to come back safely, remember, you are the boss of the Xuebing Corps, no matter it is a regiment-level organization or a brigade-level organization, or even a Army group, only you are our boss, and only you can lead us to victory!"

As a time traveler, the boss is what Ouyang Yun often talks about. After being in contact with him for a long time, he knows that in private, he likes his soldiers to call him the boss.Now, when Li Tieshu said such words as a big brother who was several years older than him, he undoubtedly regarded Ouyang Yun as his chief officer, a brother who could live and die together.

Ouyang Yun gave him a hug, patted him hard on the back a few times, and said "thank you".Then, the two exchanged a solemn military salute, ending the conversation.
