Chapter 20: Cai E, Jiang Baili
In June 1916, Chen Shao came to Guangzhou. This was because a world-renowned research result was about to be conducted in the first trial at the Guangzhou Hospital, and was launched at the same time in several major hospitals in Washington and New York, USA. Because when James came up with penicillin to apply for a patent, many people were shocked. In order to test the actual effect, the US government agreed to inject this new drug into the hospital as long as the patient agrees.
For Chen Shao, he came to Guangzhou to see if penicillin has any effect. He had known the effect for a long time. His main purpose is to relax and to talk about business with European countries when penicillin is effective. At the same time, he also brought a lot of drawings. He believed that as long as military officers from various countries in China saw those drawings, they would be very happy to establish business relationships with him.
Wang Xiaoshan and Jian San came to Guangzhou with Chen Shao. After a year of development, Chen Shao would not be as cautious as when he first came. Now his subordinates can be said to be strong. After more than half a year of suppressing bandits, the entire GX province could be said to be extremely troubled. He originally planned to just clear the bandits around the base, but when he thought about the gains of suppressing bandits, Chen Shao directly decided to suppress bandits in the entire GX province. If he didn't want to touch others' nerves, Chen Shao would also want to wipe out bandits from the surrounding provinces and cities. The bandit suppression operation of the entire province also made Li Delin of the Nanning Governor's Office unable to sleep well for several days. He thought that Chen Shao was going to send troops to seize GX province. Fortunately, Li Delin was relieved after Chen Shao repeatedly guaranteed and gave a lot of thoughts.
After half a year of development, 3,000 elite soldiers of the first regiment have all reached the level of the second-level private, and many have reached the level of the third-level private. The 7,000 reserve regiment has also been trained and will not be weaker than the first regiment six months ago. There are 4,000 naval cadets in Fangchenggang, and more than 1,000 future Marines. After half a year of development, 300 cadets can also go to heaven alone. Now the entire Huashi Town is under the control of Chen Shao, and the reserve regiment's resident is changed around Huashi Town. At the same time, a new force is stationed there, an army of only more than 400 people. It is also the first armored force under Chen Shao. It has 100 armored combat vehicles, but the training time is relatively short, and the combat effectiveness is hard to say.
Moreover, although he is in Guangzhou now, his defense is not at all. He is famous for a squad of soldiers, and there is also a platoon of guards in secret. He is a third-level soldier. In addition, he is close to the King of Soldiers. Moreover, he is not weaker than Wang Xiaoshan now. There is also a senior spy. As a senior spy, he is not weak. So Chen Shao is relieved to step out of his sphere of influence.
--------------
Chen Shao and his group arrived in Guangzhou and stayed directly in a large hotel opposite the Guangzhou Hospital.
While drinking tea in the hotel lobby, the conversation between the two people next to him reached Chen Shao's ears.
"Brother Songpo, I didn't expect that this time I came to Guangzhou was a waste of time. A group of guys who disregarded the people of the world were not worthy of leading China." The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a beard, about 30 years old.
"Oh, Brother Baili, the national conditions are like this, what can we do?" The person who answered was about 30 years old, and he shook his head after saying that.
When Chen Shao heard the names Songpo and Baili, he suddenly became clever. Could it be those two? If they were those two, they should be doing things under Yuan Shikai now, so how could they come to Guangzhou? Chen Shao resisted the urge to say hello and sat there and listened slowly.
(Jiang Baili, whose original name is Jiang Fangzhen, and whose courtesy name is Baili, is a famous modern Chinese military theorist and military educator. He studied in Germany in his early years and returned to China successively served as the principal of the Baoding Army Officer School and the acting president of the Army University. In the military theories "On National Defense", published in 1937, the military theory of protracted war against Japan was proposed, and he was the first among the Kuomintang generals. He later influenced Bai Chongxi and others to a certain extent.
Cai E (December 18, 1882 - November 8, 1916), whose original name was Gen Yin, whose courtesy name was Songpo, was a Han nationality, and from Baoqing, Hunan (now Shaoyang City). Cai E once launched a national protection war against Yuan Shikai and Hongxian's system. He was an outstanding military leader in the early years of the Republic of China. His remains were compiled into "Cai Songpo Collection".)
"Oh, it's a pity that my great man in Baoding Military Academy."
"Forget it, let's just go to Yunnan. Tang Jiyao is now the governor of Yunnan. See if he can help us."
When Chen Shao heard about Baoding Military Academy and Tang Jiyao, he knew that these must be those two. The bearded one was Jiang Baili, who was once the principal of Baoding Military Academy, but Tang Jiyao was formerly Cai E's subordinate.
A while ago, Chen Shao asked James and Mitsuo to collect teaching books from the Military Academy, and ordered Mitsuo, who were in Europe, to dig out the teachers in Munich, Germany, and several senior instructors from various military branches were also working hard to compile textbooks. He had long wanted to establish a world-class military academy. Because he was not famous, there were probably not many people who had built a military academy. Others thought it was a small warlord's fight. However, if these two were brought to Qinghe Village and established a military academy in their name, it would probably be a chance.
Thinking of this, when he turned around, he found that the people were about to leave. Chen Shao hurriedly stood up and walked over, and said with a smile: "Two, you are walking slowly, disturbing you. I first came to Guangzhou. I saw that you were talking very well and caring about the country. I wonder if I could sit down and talk about making friends with you."
Cai E and Jiang Baili were just about to get up and leave, and they heard someone calling them. They thought they were acquaintances, but they didn't expect to be a young man. As the saying goes, don't hit the smiley person, Jiang Baili and Cai E couldn't refuse directly.
"Then it's better to obey your orders than to be respectful."
Chen Shao took them to his tea table. Wang Xiaoshan and Misan stood up and asked them to sit. Wang Xiaoshan walked directly to Chen Shao and stood behind him.
"Ji San, go and ask the boss to make a pot of good tea. I want to have a good chat with these two friends."
Strangely, he didn't feel very excited when facing Cai E and Jiang Baili. Perhaps his goal was higher than these people. Even if he was familiar with these so-called celebrities, what's the use? Perhaps with his arrival, for this era, countless celebrities are destined to be beaten by themselves, and countless celebrities are fighting for their own destiny.
"My brother Chen Shao, I wonder if you know the names of the two?"
"I am Jiang Baili, this is my friend Cai E." Jiang Baili pointed at Cai E and said.
"Chen Shao, the colonel leader of the 18th Infantry Regiment of the GX Provincial Governor's Office, has met Governor Cai and Principal Jiang."
After confirmation, Chen Shao stood up immediately, with a solemn expression, and was not as excited as usual. Perhaps it was simply admiration, Chen Shao gave a military salute. However, this military salute made Cai E and Jiang Baili look a little stunned. It was obviously a bit different from the civil service, but it felt very good.
"You're welcome. I didn't expect that this brother was a colonel leader at a young age, and his future was limitless!" Cai E spoke very politely and seemed very distant.
Cai E and Jiang Baili sat against Chen Shao, but Jiang Baili thought when he heard Chen Shao report his identity. At this time, the three of them didn't say anything and were looking at each other.
When I saw Cai E in front of me, I remembered that he seemed to have some serious illness. Thinking of this, Chen Shao decided to wait and take him to the hospital for a look.
Jiang Baili was also looking at the young regiment commander opposite him. The two had already had a deal. Last year, when he was in the military academy, he received a letter saying that he had given him 10,000 new quilts. It was winter at that time, which was a solution to his own trouble. The signature on the letter was Chen Shao, and Jiang Baili was still with him, thinking about when he met it and thanking him in person.
"Chief Chen's kindness for donating for his righteousness, Jiang did not dare or forgot. I thank Captain Chen for his soldiers." Jiang Baili said the truth. It was winter at that time, but the soldiers did not even have enough clothes for Hu Han. Chen Shao's 10,000 new quilts were rescued urgently. "Also, the quality of those military quilts was very high. The soldiers who used said it was good, and even Jiang had tried it himself."
"Principal Jiang has been too rewarded! He is just a little bit of effort!" Chen Shao was not polite, basically to be honest. Among all the demons and monsters in the Republic of China, Jiang Baili and Cai E are rare real soldiers and great heroes.
Cai E also came to his senses at this time. It turned out that the two of them had already met. Seeing that Jiang Baili praised him very much, he couldn't help but ask: "I have something I don't know if Captain Chen can help answer it."
"The governor just speaks frankly, and he must know everything he is in charge of his duties."
Cai E asked calmly: "What do you think is the biggest problem facing our Republic of China!"
Chen Shao shook his head and said, "The eight words "I don't hide it from the military governor, and the internal and external troubles are not enough to explain all the problems."
"Internal and external troubles, people are not having a living? What a big horoscope." Cai E smiled and said, "Internal troubles and people are not having a living. This is the truth. It's just that this external troubles, but I don't know where to start."
Chen Shao was not anxious at all about Cai E's questioning. Yes, the Republic of China has not suffered any large-scale foreign invasion. However, even Cai E was the dragon among the people in the future, it was hard to imagine that "the army supervisor, if the internal troubles are not gone, the people will live in poverty, which will directly lead to the national strength being weak to the limit. So, will a country with a vast territory and rich resources be miserable to others? Or even reach out to take it directly?"
"You mean?" Jiang Baili was obviously awakened and asked in the jig.
"I heard that the Governor and Principal Jiang were one of the three Japanese non-commissioned officers back then. May I ask the Governor, what was the Japanese and Russians competing for in the Russo-Japanese War that year? What is North Korea today?"
