At this moment, Zhang Xueming revealed a sharp smile and slowly said,"
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!"
"Right now, Cao Kun and Wu Xiucai are at odds with each other, and the southern army is planning to go north. None of us will join in.”
"Right now, the soldiers and bandits of the Feng Department are colluding with each other. Their combat strength is not even comparable to that mountain bandit. If we continue to fight with Scholar Wu and the others, we will only waste money and sacrifice our soldiers.”
"Even if the southern army is really weak and can't defeat Scholar Wu, as long as the Fengjun is given a chance to recuperate, we can definitely avenge our humiliation!”
"When the time comes, we'll settle the old and new scores together. We'll lead the army north and unify the outside of the pass.”
"Therefore, from the perspective of the Fengjun, we must not rashly panic and let others take advantage of it.”
In just a few words, he had analyzed the current situation in Hua Country and made everyone understand.
"F * ck, this Xueming is just a student who just graduated from military school, but he actually has such a broad vision!”
"You guys have been leading the army for at least 30 years! Why is the difference so big!"
"You're really a good-for-nothing who only knows how to play with women!”
Zhang Zuolin's reprimand left the high-ranking officers speechless.
Seeing this, Zhang Xueming seized the opportunity and quickly said,"
"Father, I want to buy a division's worth of equipment for the 7th regiment! I believe that weapons are more important than improving the strength of the army!”
Zhang Xueming's words made the higher-ups of the Feng Army gasp.
It was unknown what method Zhang Xueming had used to recruit twenty thousand elite infantrymen in a short period of time.
Even the old troops under him were not necessarily better than Zhang Xueming's troops.
I heard that all of Zhang Xueming's soldiers can read!
One had to know that there were not many wealthy families in Fengtian City who could read. It could be seen that the quality of Zhang Xueming's soldiers was high!
If they could successfully obtain firearms, they would become the third force that could compete with the Luda Sect and the Sergeant Sect.
Now that the Feng army had suffered a great defeat, they needed a lot of money to compensate the injured and disabled soldiers and rebuild the army.
It could be said that just maintaining the current financial situation was even more difficult. There was no money to arm Zhang Xueming's private army.
Zhang Zuolin frowned and sighed,"
"Xueming, the Fengs have suffered such a great defeat and are in dire need of money. They simply can't afford to purchase firearms for the 7th Brigade!”
"But I can give you the quota to recruit five divisions. You can directly appoint the officers above regimental level!”
"But you have to think of a way to get the military funds you need!”
Hearing Zhang Zuolin's words, the higher-ups were shocked at first, but then they found it ridiculous.
What shocked them was that Marshal Zhang didn't punish Zhang Xueming for expanding his army privately. Instead, he acknowledged the legitimacy of his army.
What was laughable was that even though they agreed to the legitimacy of the army, they did not give any military support, even if the recruited soldiers were extremely elite.
A reinforced regiment with elite equipment was enough to turn these five divisions into dregs in an instant!
"Father, it's a deal!"
Everyone looked at Zhang Xueming in surprise.
Zhang Xueming didn't want military expenses. Could it be that he wanted to establish the number one Beggar Sect in Fengtian?？
What was this 'Second Young Master' trying to do?
Could it be that they wanted to fight against well-equipped veterans with wooden sticks?
……
After Zhang Xueming left the marshal's residence, he went straight to the Hans 'embassy, 135 Eastern Alley. At the moment, he still had a lot of concerns about money.
If he bought large quantities of them from western arms dealers, it would not be worth it.
Back when the plague was rampant in Fengtian City, Zhang Xueming accidentally saved a Hans citizen.
The Hans was the chief diplomat of the Hans Embassy in Fengtian City.
"Send someone to send my name card up!”
After all, he was the savior of the diplomat of the Hans Embassy. Presumably, he would still give him some face.
When Hans 'ambassador to Fengtian heard of Zhang Xueming's visit, he immediately went out to welcome him.
As the ambassador of the Hans Kingdom to Fengtian, he had naturally heard of the iron-blooded methods of the second son of the Zhang family.
Not only did he hold an important position in the Feng army, but he also held the main functional department of Fengtian City's affairs.
Most importantly, he was also the one who saved his life when he was sentenced to death by the plague.
In both public and private matters, the second son of Zhang Xueming in front of him was a popular figure in Fengtian City.
"Ambassador, you look much more energetic after a few days!”
"Young Master Zhang, you're too polite. It's an honor for the legation to have you here!”
After a simple greeting, Minister Harhausen invited Zhang Xueming into the embassy.
In an extremely simple and crude side hall.
Looking at the water that the waiter brought over, Zhang Xueming's subordinate said with an unfriendly expression,"
"Water? You want our regimental commander to drink this?"
"Water is good for physical and mental health!"
A man in a black tuxedo sat on the main seat and said with an old-fashioned and serious expression.
After Zhang Xueming and Harrison finished their small talk, they went straight to the main topic.
