At the beginning of April, 1916, it was not very peaceful. In the capital, there was news that Yuan Shikai wanted to be the emperor. All the local warlords secretly recruited soldiers and horses to prepare for a crusade against Yuan Shikai in the north. At the same time, Yuan Shikai used money, martial arts, and official positions to lure them.| to confuse the local warlords.
(I've changed the timeline. Brothers, don't take it personally…)
The central government represented by the Northern Warlords joined the alliance and sent hundreds of thousands of labor workers to Europe!
In the capital, after the Qing Dynasty announced its disbandment, the owner's surname was Yuan. Yuan Shikai even bribed the election and obtained the support of several countries to expand the new army and become the president of the Republic of China.
Westerners, what they want is a spokesperson to continue to be full| It was enough for their interests.
In the southwest region of Zhe Province, in the 11th division headquarters of the Northern Army, in Chu Yonglong's office, the 1st brigade commander Zuo Zhang and the 2nd brigade commander Xiang Chuan, as Chu Yonglong's two capable subordinates, returned to Quzhou overnight from the outer defense line of Quzhou.
"This is a matter of the teacher's family, so it's best for Brigadier Xiang and I not to interfere. However, please rest assured that the 1st and 2nd regiments will be loyal to the teacher!”
Chu Yonglong nodded his head. He had originally thought that he would never have any biological children in his life. However, last month, there was some movement in the stomach of a concubine he had taken in. At present, he did not know if it was a boy or a girl. However, as a father, not to mention a commander of the new division of the Northern Ocean Army!
Now, Chu Yonglong had already released the news of the concubine. However, in the situation where the gender was unknown, Chu Yonglong's attitude towards Chu Tianyun was as usual. Father was father, and son was son.
"Commander, in the past half a month, the news from Shuiping Weir said that Tianyun had been training his soldiers. He even participated in the training himself.”
As time passed, Chu Yonglong felt that Chu Tianyun had become a different person after he woke up.
He even felt a little regretful. It was a little too much for him to lead a battalion, and there were also the 400 Hanyang units. The 11th Division was the new division that ranked last in the Beiyang Army. The supply of weapons and equipment was not like the infantry divisions in the top few, so they were still lacking in weapons.
"If Tianyun can continue like this, it will be a good thing for the master. This way, he can share the master's worries.”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Come in!"
At this moment, the financial officer of the 11th Division, Liu Kemin, came in to report.
"Commander, this is President Yuan's commendation order to you. There is also a sentence at the end of this order. It basically means that from this month onwards, half of the 11th Division's military pay and supplies will be provided, and we will be asked to raise military supplies ourselves.”
Chu Yonglong's face instantly darkened. The supply of the 11th Division was already insufficient in the past, but now, it had shrunk by half.
"Big Head Yuan is forcing us to rebel. 15,000 brothers, where are we going to gather the remaining military pay?”
"Commander, you may not know this, but President Yuan has been trying to win over Lu Yongxiang, the warlord of the Zhejiang Province. It is very likely that the Zhejiang Province warlord will soon become the Northern Warlord!”
"Motherf * cker, Big Head Yuan is going too far!”
Chu Yonglong's face was red with anger. The 11th Infantry Division was no match for a Zhejiang warlord.
"Commander, I think we should consider how to choose our future path. For now, our 11th Division is still safe. Since Yuan Shikai won't give us money, we'll collect it ourselves.”
On the other hand, in the southeast of Quzhou City, at the horizontal weir, the phosphorous powder produced by the fertilizer plant had been tested after almost a month.
Chu Tianyun had even sold the powder to Jinhua County in one go. Under the leadership of the Lin Chamber of Commerce, the price of the powder was not low.
With the powerful firepower of the 1st Battalion, Jinhua and some of the big landowners in the countryside around Quzhou did not dare to lower the price. This phosphorous powder was a fresh product, so the price naturally could not be lowered.
"No money, no money. A single cent really stumps me. If it wasn't for the money I extorted from Landlord Liu last time, my 1st Battalion wouldn't even have any bullets for training in the past half a month!”
"I can only sell this new raw yarn manufacturing process to the Lin Chamber of Commerce. This Old Master Lin can be considered a patriotic businessman. It's not a loss to sell it to him.”
"There are still some very capable big businessmen in the country's national industry!”
Chu Tianyun did not think too much about it after he figured this out. He stood up and said,"
"Deputy Battalion Commander Chen, pack up. We will go to Jinhua County tomorrow!”
