Of course, Commander Xiao, Dijibai, can't let him work hard. He also has additional conditions, but it's still an old problem. He hopes that Liu Jingxiao can recruit some more soldiers for him after he arrives in Shandong.

Xiao Diji's two brigades are indeed very powerful now, but the biggest disadvantage is that his territory in southern Fujian has not expanded much. These civilian troops have joined forces with a large number of bandits to fight east and west, and occasionally invade near Xiamen, preparing to cross the sea to attack Xiamen, which makes Xiao Diji's troops really exhausted. Now the civilian army is fleeing in sight. Xiao Diji attacks ten times, and it is good to have a chance to beat him. Often, the teacher is useless in one battle and only kills and injures dozens of kittens and dogs.

Learning from the pain, Xiao Diji believed that the biggest problem was still insufficient troops. The two brigades could not control such a large territory in southern Fujian. Now they still felt like they were in a state of no one to deal with these civilian troops. However, now the Mok in Guangdong is looking at him with his terrible eyes. If they join forces with the civilian army to attack, it would not have ruined their own affairs.

Moreover, the soldiers he recruited from Sichuan were quite casualties. Although he defeated tens of thousands of civilian troops, he would not be able to fight without death or injury. For example, under the gun of the supervising team, Corporal Duncan led the way and turned his head many times to see the black muzzle and the snow-slim bayonet, and could only rush forward with his teeth. Moreover, he was seriously injured seven or eight times, and slightly injured twenty or thirty times. It was a miracle that he could survive.

But no one else has the good luck of Corporal Deng. During this period, the total number of casualties in the two security brigades has exceeded 1,000, and the number of casualties in the battle has exceeded 400. It is estimated that the following will start a war with Mo Di again. The number of casualties has not yet flown to the sky.

As for the soldiers in Fujian Province, Xiao Diji looked down on them very much. The civilian troops that can be defeated by several companies are really bad. Of course, he has tried it once. He once added the captured civilian troops into his own troops. As a result, he made up for 500 this month, and it was a little tested in the second month. It was not bad! The wounded and sick left with fifty people, and Xiao Diji was even more crazy. Among the escaped guys, half of them took away all their equipment, but they simply absconded with weapons.

Later he learned that the civilian army had always had more people and few guns. A new type of rifle was sold on the market for thirty or forty dollars. It would be strange if people didn't escap with weapons. However, in this case, he thought of the benefits of Liu Jingxiao. It would be fine to give you free luck, but you must get some Shandong soldiers for our family.

After receiving Xiao Diji's reply, Liu Jingxiao held a full-time meeting and officially announced the news of her preparations for transfer to Shandong.

More than 20 Sichuan soldiers ran away that night, and a few Hubei soldiers ran away. After all, this was leaving their hometown. God knows when they could return to their hometown, but the situation was better than Liu Jingxiao expected. His military pay was paid in full monthly, and the cadres were promoted quickly, and everyone felt that it was more promising.

On the contrary, the family problem made Liu Jingxiao very embarrassed. In Yichang these days, some cadres have settled their homes here, and now they can't leave. However, the Cheng Yi and the An family expenses that Xu Zhenfa had been enough. They were all with their families. The money for an appointment in Shandong was not enough.

Especially in Mengding Country, his thoughts fluctuated greatly. His family had a large population and a heavy burden on his living. He just added the family problems and found Liu Jingxiao several times. If it were someone else who came to pay the dispatch fee, it would be easier for Liu Jingxiao to get a few more empty quotas. But now the dispatch fee is due to his old friend Xu Zhen. Liu Jingxiao was embarrassed to blame him, so he comforted him: "I have a lot to do when I arrive in Shandong, and there is a way to do everything!"

The change of defense is also very annoying. Now Liu Jingxiao's troops confronted the Sichuan Army on the front line and occupied a large area of ​​land like western Hubei. Both Sichuan and Hubei armies knew the dynamic relationship between Liu Jingxiao, which of these dozens of counties belonged to.

The Sichuan Army was aiming at the wishful thinking. They claimed that they would ask Liu Jingxiao to hand over the western Hubei territory to them. They only accepted Nanjin Pass until they would not invade Yichang, and would not make it difficult for Liu Jingxiao.

This is indeed a daydream. The things that the Sichuan Army can’t get on the battlefield can be obtained by just talking. This is absolutely impossible. As for Wuhan, it has long been an idea to take these dozens of counties in western Hubei under the control of the provincial government, and also sent lobbyists to Yichang to persuade Liu Jingxiao.

But Liu Jingxiao just insisted on one word: "money". History has proved that this mysterious thing has extremely charm. In order to send Liu Jingxiao out of the country, Wu Xinguang and Liu Jingxiao repeatedly negotiated that Hubei subsidies 300,000 yuan in military salary. In addition, a large number of arms produced by Liu Jingxiao Han Factory were added, and Liu Jingxiao handed over all the territory to Wu Xinguang.

After the agreement was finalized, Liu Jingxiao asked the troops to come and take over the defense quickly. Of course, Liu Jingxiao only handed over the defense zone on the Sichuan-Hubei border to Wu Xinguang. If Wu Xinguang dared to break the agreement, he would attack sideways behind him and attack again head-on, and Wu Xinguang's army would be defeated.

So Wu Xinguang did not dare to pay the debt. After receiving the news that Liu Jingxiao gave up the defense zone, he immediately sent all the foreign and arms to Yichang, and asked Liu Jingxiao to leave as soon as possible. He now hoped that Liu Jingxiao would leave faster.

Liu Jingxiao couldn't leave for a while. Although he handed over the defense zone, the Sichuan Army still had a good impression of him, and Liu Jingxiao could not bear to be rude. After all, his wives' parents' homes are all in Sichuan, and they still have to rely on these Sichuan soldiers to take care of them. In the end, Liu Jingxiao also started a big business, which was to sell a large number of inventory of arms.

The weapons and equipment of the Sichuan Army are extremely poor, and the main equipment is still mainly composed of mesh guns. If a regiment is equipped with a series of smoothbore guns, then this regiment can be used as the main force. There is a reason. If you want to buy arms, one is to go to the southwest route, but the governors of the southwest provinces are very slippery. Since they regard Sichuan as their colony, how could they sell arms to the Sichuan Army? The other way is to smuggle from the Yangtze River, but there are many checkpoints along the way. Ten ships may not be transported to Sichuan, but one ship is transported to Sichuan, so what if they are transported to Sichuan!

Xiong Wu, a shameless guy, stuck at the Chongqing barrier, making everyone unable to buy anything even if they have money. Now that Liu Jingxiao has changed her guard, she can't control the mess anymore, so she can't get a clearance sale.

Of course, in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, his goods are all high-priced items, all old guns that have been repaired many times, and they are not well maintained, but the price is extremely high. A new smoothbore gun costs 30 yuan! It's so black!

But the Sichuan Army is different. They naturally drink as hungry as they drink. No matter what equipment Liu Jingxiao sells, they will never say the word "no". The more they are, the better. Most of the inventory released by Liu Jingxiao this time was old weapons from the Dingbian Army. Liu Jingxiao probably didn't need to bring these goods to Shandong. It just took up some transportation tonnage, which would be better to make a big profit.

For the Sichuan Army, this is really beautiful... the latest smoothbore rifles are 4,500 (and all can be bayonets!), and the infinitely powerful grenades (all of which are eliminated ignition grenades)... Several two-pound guns... there are many other guns......................................................................................................................................................................................

Everyone paid the money together. Commander Liu Jingxiao and Commander Liu carefully concluded that not only did the cadres' settlement fee be settled, but Xiao Diji's shipment also be deposited, and everyone could also give a reward of picks. Liu Jingxiao announced that after arriving in Shandong, everyone would give a reward of five yuan, and those with family members would give another five yuan. If there were officers with family members, then they would give another five yuan.

However, this weapon has to pass through Chongqing. What if Xiong Wu detains all the arms? Liu Jingxiao released all the seized arms and prisoners, but Xiong Wu detained them all, which triggered a civil war in Sichuan. Everyone turned their suspicious eyes to Xiong Wu. In the end, Xiong Wu could only curse: "The emperor's god is thick, if I detain a piece of arms, I will not die well... Five thunders blasted... I have a son without a butt... I wear ten cuckolds..."

Everyone finally felt relieved. Liu Jingxiao was the same rule. He paid the money and delivered the goods in the other hand. He was real money and did not owe any credit. As a result, everyone brought a large sum of silver to buy weapons.

Liu Jingxiao handed over this matter to Guo Junqing, but Guo Junqing was too busy and asked the cavalry commander Ding Ning for help. Ding Ning also felt troublesome and said, "What are the things that Sichuan has to organize so many divisions and brigades? And each unit only buys arms for RMB..."

Guo Junqing nodded and said, "Yes!" Although the Sichuan is divided into several systems, it is carefully divided into dozens of large and small forces. Everyone is an independent force. Liu Jingxiao's price is too high, and it is painful for everyone to buy arms, so they simply implement elite military power, only buying enough arms to equip a battalion, and then equipment for their most direct troops.

After hearing this, Ding Ning nodded and said, "If I were in charge of Sichuan, I would definitely cut all these troops!"

Unexpectedly, this statement became a fact. In the future, she took charge of Sichuan and used iron bowl methods to cut the number of more than 500 regiments in Sichuan into three regiments and five independent battalions. There were two regiments in these three regiments, and only two battalions. The soldiers in Sichuan heard that Ding Ning was either unhappy and cursed, but Ding Ning did make great contributions to Sichuan.

This is a later story, and I won't mention it for now. On March 11, Duan Tiemin issued a telegram on behalf of the central government to publicly commend Liu Jingxiao: "Bandits in the north are rising... At this time of crisis, Jingxiao, the commander of Liu, western Hubei, volunteered to quell the rebellion... not to fight for territory, not to compete for fame and status... one is dedicated to serving the country... It can be regarded as a model of the republican soldiers... specially changed to serve the bandit suppression and the commander of Yimeng... His troops immediately opened north to quell the rebellion... and made new contributions to the republic..."

This telegram is all empty talk. If Liu Jingxiao does not compete for territory or fame, he will not be Liu Jingxiao, but an angel.

It happened that Xiao Diji's fleet also arrived in Yichang, and Liu Jingxiao immediately ordered the troops to prepare for entry.

The first day was Xiao Rulang's regiment, and the second fleet escorted two new warships, then transported Liu Jingxiao's headquarters and his basic unit Chen Ce regiment. At the end were the special forces and Li He's brigade.

In addition to using Xiao Diji's ships, Liu Jingxiao also used some of the Shen family's ships in Sichuan. However, most of the Shen family's fleets were only suitable for inland shipping and could not leave the sea, so they only transferred two ships.

On the boat, Liu Jingxiao met an old acquaintance. Hua Yueying, who had a big bet with Chen Fangren, is now high-rise, and it is not an ordinary high-seller. He has been promoted from the captain to the position of mopping the floor. His current position is much higher than that of the captain's room. It turns out that he and Fu Sbo were eager to lose all his belongings to the First Fleet. After returning to Taiwan, Xiao Diji naturally did not give him a good look, and only retained him a rank of lieutenant, and was assigned to mopping the floor on the boat, and re-arranged the work depending on the situation.

Of course, Hua Yueying himself said that he is now moving down the ship to train again and doing another sailing soldier. Not only mopping the floor, but also masts and sails. However, Liu Jingxiao thinks that mopping the floor is mopping the floor, so why are you also mopping the sailing soldier?

As for Fu Sbo, after hearing Hua Yueying's words, Xiao Diji had shortage of people in the Taiwan Parliament and wanted Fu Sbo to be the speaker, but he broke into such a big misunderstanding. Fortunately, he got back thousands of strong men. Although he and Fu Sbo were saved, Fu Sbo could not continue working in the army and could only go to the parliament, but the speaker's election was no longer helpful.

Originally, this election of speakers was not chosen from below, but "released" from above. As long as Xiao Diji says, everyone will not cheer, and then pass the election of parliament unanimously. But in this way, Xiao Diji does not speak, and Fu Sbo can only be an ordinary member of parliament, and he has quit gambling.

Liu Jingxiao gave Hua Yueying a little whisper, saying that after he arrived in Shandong, he would never dare to forget Xiao Diji's help this time. The recruitment of soldiers was covered by him. The last time Hua Yueying could protect the leader was because she relied on Liu Jingxiao's strong men. Now Hua Yueying also placed her hope for promotion in the word "strong men". The two of them were there to figure out how to get the greatest profit by selling human beings.

This time I drove in, it was a smooth journey, just adding coal and water. No accident happened. In a few days, I arrived in Shanghai. The fleet was about to drive out of the Yangtze River. Looking at the endless ships, the countless tall buildings on the shore, and endlessly indulged in luxury, Liu Jingxiao suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Call Commander Han!"

Han Xinhai did not follow Li He's action, and was also at Liu Jingxiao's headquarters. When Han Xinhai arrived, Liu Jingxiao closed the door and asked: "What's going on with Xuehai and the Shen family? Xuehai's sister, what's going on with my wife who has not passed the door?"

When Murong Xuehai died, Liu Jingxiao was in a bad mood and did not inquire about what happened to him and the Shen family. He was busy with his affairs and did not ask about the Shen family. After a long time, he naturally forgot. Since he didn't ask, Han Xinhai naturally didn't say that when he arrived in Shanghai today, Liu Jingxiao remembered this incident.
