"Yes! Since no one has any objections, I will talk about the appointment of the commanders of the various armies.”
With a faint smile, Zhang Xuecheng looked at everyone and read,""After discussion, the commander of the first group army is Li Yunlong, the commander of the second group army is Ma Zanshan, the commander of the third group army is Chu Yunfei, the commander of the fourth group army is Wu Keren, and the commander of the fifth group army is Yu Xuezhong.”
Ma Zhanshan, Li Yunlong, and Chu Yunfei were his trusted aides. Wu Keren and Yu Xuezhong were also on his side.
When Zhang Hanqing was still the commander of the Feng army, these two had already made their stand clear and were not on good terms with Zhang Hanqing.
Now that Zhang Xuecheng had taken over, he naturally had to be rewarded according to his merits.
Hearing Zhang Xuecheng's appointment, the people in front of them were not surprised. To them, they were already very satisfied with the three commanders of the Fengjun faction.
Those two outsiders were the trusted aides of the Major and were good at fighting, so it was acceptable.
Since no one objected, Zhang Xuecheng was happy to do so. He immediately ordered someone to send the letter of appointment to them and instructed them to take up their posts immediately to prepare to form an army.
"There are five regular armies in the northeast, but there are not enough special troops.”
In addition to the five corps, we will form an armored corps and three heavy artillery divisions. There will be no military units for heavy artillery. What do you think?”
After hearing Zhang Xuecheng's words, everyone looked at each other and then said,"We have no objections to the Young Marshal's words.”
"Hahaha, good!"
Laughing, Zhang Xuecheng immediately appointed Kong Jie as the commander of the armored army and Fu Chang as the deputy commander. The three candidates for the heavy artillery division were all capable artillery generals.”
After talking about military affairs, it was time to talk about internal affairs!
Zhang Xuecheng looked at Zhang Zuoxiang and said to him,"The three eastern provinces are now surrounded by strong neighbors and are in danger, but the people are not familiar with the military and are physically weak?”
I plan to set up a reserve system in the three eastern provinces with villages as units to teach the people various military subjects. All places must have a small training every three days and a big training every five days.”
"When you have nothing to do, practice every day!"
Hearing Zhang Xuecheng's words, Zhang Zuoxiang took a deep breath and looked at him with a profound expression."It's a good thing that the Major wants to establish a reserve system, but if it's implemented, it'll cost at least ten million a year.”
Zhang Xuecheng waved his hand disapprovingly and said to Zhang Zuoxiang,"Ten million military expenses, we can still grit our teeth and take it out.”
What a joke. Ten million military expenses were nothing.
If the reserve system was established, there would be at least four to five million high-quality soldiers in the entire three eastern provinces. These high-quality soldiers would be enough to support him to fight everywhere.
If Zhang Xuecheng was more ruthless and expanded the age limit, the entire Three Eastern Provinces would double, and there would be at least seven to eight million soldiers.
What the f * ck, let's see how Mao Xiong and the foot basin fight with him then?
After this matter was decided, under the strange gazes of everyone in front of him, Zhang Xuecheng continued to speak as if no one else was around,
"I'm going to expand the production capacity of the Fengtian Munitions Factory. I'll allocate 50 million yuan from the government to buy industrial equipment in the Germanic Empire together with the 6 million yuan sent by Old Jiang.”
What was that? The Munitions Factory was going to expand its production capacity? Another 50 million from the treasury?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
They were all shocked by Zhang Xuecheng's spending spendthrift.
At present, the Fengtian Munitions Factory could produce 4000 rifles, 40 light machine guns, 100 heavy machine guns, 80 mortars, two tanks, one plane, and eight million rounds of ammunition per month.
If he spent another 56 million to buy industrial equipment in the Germanic Empire and expand military production, the monthly production of weapons in Fengtian Munitions Factory might reach the world's top level.
With so many weapons, what was the Major planning to do?
Was he preparing to beat up a bear? Or was he preparing to kick the Kwantung Army's ass? Or was he preparing to attack Old Jiang?
Zhang Xuecheng had expanded his arsenal so crazily that he didn't suddenly want to do business and produce weapons to sell to others.
War. The young marshal was madly expanding the arsenal for the sake of war.
At least half of the people in the room were high-ranking generals of the Feng army. After understanding Zhang Xuecheng's intentions, they were so excited that they could not express it in words, and their faces were flushed red.
Generals like them were very passionate about war.
Previously, Zhang Hanqing was not keen on fighting. He only knew how to indulge in debauchery and drink all day long. He spent all his time with women, listening to music and watching dances.
Letting these generals idle in the city and wander around, their bones were about to rust.
Now that Zhang Xuecheng had come to power, he had made a bold decision to reorganize the military system, establish a reserve system, and expand the arsenal.
Such an obvious signal of war made all the generals feel as if they had taken stimulants. Their blood was boiling, and they were just short of shouting in support!
In the end, even though they didn't shout loudly, they supported Zhang Xuecheng's words.
Therefore, with the support of many generals, even though the literati faction did not want to allocate money, they did not dare to refuse when Zhang Xuecheng brought a group of generals to ask for money.
In the end, the finance department agreed to allocate 50 million yuan and 6 million yuan of Jiang's military expenses for the war. A total of 56 million yuan was used to buy industrial equipment in the Germanic Empire to upgrade the military production capacity of Fengtian.
This time, Zhang Xuecheng wanted the Fengtian Munitions Factory to become one of the top factories in the world.”
