Shocking the Nation
On June 28th, 1928, the Jinling government announced a piece of news that attracted the attention of all the powers in the Republic of China. Today, the Jinling government announced that Ji Yun had successfully taken office and established the Chahar People's Government. This meant that another warlord had appeared in China.
What truly shocked these old fellows was that this fellow who appeared this time was surprisingly young.
According to the reporter's report, the main character of this incident was less than 20 years old. Which of the people present was younger than 30 or 40 years old?
Moreover, how did this guy come out? In such a desolate place like Chahar, he could actually produce such a powerful weapon.
The strength of this place wasn't just their combat strength, but also the strength of this group of people. Their equipment was also extremely good. Although he didn't know the exact details, the number of light and heavy machine guns they were equipped with was already very shocking.
What they didn't know was that Ji Yun's infantry regiment had a total of 300 light and heavy machine guns. Quite... As for the infantry division, although there was no such unit yet, if it was really established, it would be a good idea. An infantry division had at least a thousand light and heavy machine guns.
As for the German Machinists with the most advanced equipment and the strongest combat power in China after this period of time, they had not been formed yet. Even if they were formed, the firepower of two or three German Machinists with light weapons might not be comparable to the firepower of a full division on Ji Yun's side.
Of course, the big shots in the country didn't know that the army that Ji Yun built was a monster. Even if they were to face the M Nation soldiers of the same size or Hans, who was stronger, they would still have the upper hand.
Some people said that China's history was actually a history of war. How long were the days of peace? The Chinese people's attitude towards war was different from the people in Europe and the United States. This was because the wars that both sides had experienced were naturally not completely the same. However, there would also be a certain degree of similarity. The reason why we would have different attitudes towards war might be reflected in our religious beliefs and our daily behavior.
Some people said that in the John Bull Army, the nobles were the ones who suffered the most casualties in every battle. It was true that they bore their own responsibilities, and that was also their honor.
However, in China, it was not only the nobles who were required to do so. In the world, there was no king's land, and there was no king's subject. Ever since the establishment of the military title system in Qin, it had changed. The estrangement between commoners and nobles had been gradually eliminated. Unlike Europe, where nobles were nobles and civilians were civilians.
Some people said that China didn't have a big family that had been passed down for thousands of years, so the Chinese didn't have the aristocratic style like England.
Ji Yun didn't know if the families in Huaxia that claimed to have been around for thousands of years were real, but ever since Chen Sheng and Wu Guang shouted," Kings and generals, would you rather have guts?" Some things in this country had quietly changed. Some of the original systems were directly broken, and people's thoughts changed again.
Reality proved that if a country wanted to become strong, it would be impossible. It was not advisable to be complacent, but at the same time, one had to have the spirit of doing things.
Just like what a certain founding marshal of the Republic said,"We are the world's greatest idealists and doers.”
History had proven countless times that verbal attacks were useless. In the end, one had to solve the final problem with their hands. Therefore, there was a saying,"War is the last resort of diplomacy."”
Putting that aside, when the warlords in China heard this news, they ignored those who did not have great ambitions.
However, Li Bai from Gui Province, Feng from the Northwest Army, and Yan Laoxi from Jin Province all had different thoughts about this matter.
As for the northeast, Zhang Xiaoliu was preparing to change sides not long after Old Zhang died. Moreover, he still had to face the pressure of the Japanese on the outside. Moreover, there were many problems within his Northeast Security Force. His qualifications were too shallow, and he could not do anything to those old guys who thought they had worked hard. There was also a guy surnamed Yang who was worried about him all day long. Zhang Xiaoliu was still quite resentful about this matter.
Therefore, in less than a year, there was a shooting incident in Tiger Hall. It was also very sad to be beaten to death like that.
Let's not talk about us for now. Zhang Shao Shuai is currently very busy.
Turning to the Northwest Army, the Northwest Army referred to the warlords who made a name for themselves in the northwest region of China at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China. It was named the Northwest Border Army in 1919, which was adapted from the " participating army " that was originally planned to participate in World War I. For example, the "National Army" commanded by Feng, and the Han, Song, Shi, etc. that were split from Feng's system after the "Central Plains War".
However, the current Northwest Army was not the divided army of the future. It was now completely unified and could be considered a behemoth.
In August 1926, Feng returned from Polar Bear and took an oath in Wuyuan on September 17th to reorganize the National GEMIN Army Coalition and accept the leadership of the People's Party.
In May 1927, Feng sent troops to Tongguan to participate in the Northern Expedition. The number of troops reached 250,000, and then 400,000. At this time, the Northwest Army reached its peak. During the Northern Expedition, the National Revolutionary Army had four armies, namely Baldy Jiang's First Army, Feng Mou's Second Army, Yan Laoxi's Third Army, and Li Zong's Fourth Army.
In 1927, Feng's troops crossed the Yellow River. In 1928, they participated in the second phase of the Northern Expedition and occupied Tianjin. At the beginning of 1928, the second Northern Expedition ended, and the Northwest Army was downsized. The entire army was downsized to twelve divisions, with a total of 220,000 people.
Right now, the Northwest Army had a large number of people and was valiant. It was considered a powerful army in China.
In the Northwest Army headquarters, Feng was discussing with his subordinates about what had happened during this period of time.
To be honest, I have five Tiger Generals and Thirteen Gangsters under me. Dozens of people are discussing something in the conference hall. Feng Yuxiang sat high up in the main seat, looking at the scene before him. His heart was filled with pride.
He could indeed be considered the top figure in the country now. There were indeed some people who could be compared to him. Moreover, there were also various problems in his army. Among the various armies, although the Northwest Army had the strongest combat strength, their equipment was the worst. Otherwise, they would not have so many broadswords. However, he believed that these problems would be solved sooner or later.
Feng coughed lightly and picked up the tea on the table. He took a sip and said,"Everyone, tell me about the incident that happened on the 4th of this month at Old Zhang in Northeast China. Also, I have confirmed the news from Yan Laoxi.”
The people below were immediately enraged. Some people said that it was Baldy Jiang's conspiracy. There were also people who said that it might be supported by a foreign force. However, these people had never suffered a loss at Ji Yun's hands.
Therefore, he did not pay much attention to this matter. In the end, under the suggestion of his subordinates, Feng Yuxiang only decided to pay more attention to the Chahar People's Government and let his intelligence personnel keep an eye on it.
As for Li Bai and his wife, who were staying in Gui Province, they basically made the same decision as him. After all, they were in Gui Province, which was far from Chahar.
However, this time, Ji Yun's name could be considered to have shaken China.
