"If Wang Yi did not send additional Russian surrendered troops to Hokkaido this time, I really don't say that Northeast China will attack us first, or Japan. But there is no need to guess anymore!"

Xu Shichang frowned, wondering what Yuan Shikai said. After all, he was a literati and his understanding of military operations was far less than that of Yuan Daming, who had been in the army for several years.

"If the Northeast really wants to attack Japan, it will definitely use the most elite troops. I am not sure how powerful the Russian surrendered army is. However, based on common sense, their sequence in the Northeast Insurance Team is probably the best at midstream level. Such troops can naturally be competent if they only defend the city, without any problem, but they are used to conquer cities and territories, which is too underestimated by the little Japanese. And as far as I know, Wang Yi always plans and then moves. Japan is an island country. If he wants to capture it, he will definitely use landing troops. Such troops must undergo long-term training, not any troops can compete. There are two leaders in this regard in Northeast China, namely the Eighth Division and the Twelfth Division. They both participated in the battle to wipe out the South Vietnamese rebellion, and have stayed there since then, and there is no sign of mobilization at present."

"So that's it!" After Yuan Shikai's explanation, Xu Shichang finally understood the key. However, he did not know much about the Northeast Insurance Team, only knew that Yuan Shikai highly praised them. But then again, according to Xu Shichang's own ideas, Yuan Shikai was just scaring himself! Even if it was as he said, the Northeast was preparing to attack the Qing court, the new army he and Yuan Shikai jointly built was not a vegetarian! The soldiers all had one head and two feet. If they really started, who would be better than who would be better! "Weiting, when you were brother's question, shouldn't you ask, is the Northeast Insurance Team really as powerful as you said?"

Yuan Shikai smiled bitterly, and then said, "Weapons and equipment, logistics supplies, and many other unfavorable issues, just being a soldier of war is not something our soldiers can reach. Besides..." Yuan Shikai paused here, then a hint of anger appeared on his face, and said, "We are loyal to the country, but... we are so hot that we can't trust us at all."

When talking about this, Xu Shichang also sighed. Yuan Shikai established the Dingwu Army, which was in the history of later generations after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. A total of six towns in the capital were established. In the current history, the reason for establishing the new army was completely because the Qing court was disappointed with the Beiyang and Nanyang, and even suspected that the Beiyang and the Northeast had secretly colluded with interests. As for Yuan Shikai's ability to take office, this was entirely due to his outstanding performance in the Korean battlefield and Vietnam battlefield... Following the Northeast Insurance Team, he picked up the remaining ones and won the big ones with outstanding military achievements.

He was a second-generation official and was generous enough, so he naturally gained the appreciation of some officials of the Qing court. At the same time, the origin of the Huai Army was also accepted by Li Hongzhang, so he became the leader of the new army. Of course, the most important point was that the Lao Buddha and the court officials of various families were tacitly committed, that is, Yuan Shikai is now a small official, easy to deal with, and if he replaced it with other high-ranking officials, once the new army was successful, it would be too big to lose its tail.

It is also because of this that after seeing Yuan Shikai's training at the small station, some people finally began to think about it. Among the six new army towns, only three towns have been established! Among them, the first town is the strongest, with a total of 15,000 people. It is the only fully equipped town among the six towns in the capital. The remaining two towns have more than 5,000 people and more than 4,000 people. However, in the late autumn of last year, the Qing court held a grand ceremony for the Zhangde, with the designated location between Tianjin and Tangshan.

The two sides participating in the meeting were the Northern Army and the Southern Army. The Southern Army was the new army, the first town commanded Wang Shizhen's troops, and the Northern Army was the old organization of the Eight Banners and Green Camp. The meeting was set for one week. The Qing court sent Minister of War Wula Xi Chong'a and Zhili Governor Li Hongzhang as the Minister of the Military Parade, Yuan Shikai as the General Senator and the Central Referee, Feng Guozhang as the Chief of the Southern Army, Murcha * Tieliang as the Chief of the Northern Army, and Guan Cao sent by various provinces were all sent as judges. This arrangement showed that the Qing court had a profound meaning. One member of the Minister of the Military Parade, one member of the Manchu and Han, the Presiding Judge of the Southern Army was a Han Chinese, and the Presiding Judge of the Northern Army was a Manchu and a Manchu.

This training game led to an overwhelming advantage...but it also caused a group of people to suffer from red eye disease.

Unlike later history, Ronglu had already recovered from illness and was a general from another province for two years. When Cixi was celebrating her birthday, she went to Beijing to pay her respects, so she was left in the capital. The Qing court set up a general training office, and Ronglu was arranged to be responsible for specific affairs. In fact, the real purpose was to use the figures used by Lao Fu to check and balance the father of Guangxu Prince Chun Yihuan. At this time, Prince Gong Yi had already jumped into the northeast. Prince Chun was the dominant family in the court, and there was no one to check and balance. It just so happened that Ronglu had a grudge against Prince Chun, so Cixi wanted Ronglu to be the bargaining weight.

Ronglu's general training department was in charge of Yuan Shikai's new army. He had no prejudice against Yuan Shikai, but he was very respectful. However, he had a close aide named Murcha Tieliang! The Manchu white flag was inlaid with no battle, but he called himself "knowing the army". He was a real Manchu right-wing member who was extremely arrogant!

What is Tieliang's background? He was unable to take the exams within the system and could not follow the path of the imperial examination. Then in the process of rising from the Northeast, he suddenly became interested in economy and military, so he bent his door and stole the hole and walked through the back door. However, the door was not strong enough, and in the end he did not get the quota sent to the Northeast Army Officer Academy to study, and later changed it to a visit... However, according to his own statement, it became a study tour inexplicably. After a layer of gold was plastered in the Northeast, Tieliang gave himself the title of knowing the army, took the initiative to surrender Ronglu, who had returned to help him manage various things, and then gradually became a prosperous official career.

However, it is always too slow to rise step by step, so Tieliang came up with an idea! The Qing Dynasty was gradually declining, the Northeast was gradually rising, and the country was difficult to continue. The geographical advantage was that Tieliang was an official in the latest position in the capital. As for people and men... the old and young men in the capital did not want the Han people to seize their own country, and the sentiment of the Han people increased sharply.

Yuan Shikai is now the Minister of Training and Tieliang is the Director of the Army. Although Yuan Shikai is his boss, he is very dissatisfied with Yuan Shikai's leadership in the construction of the new army, so he joined forces with the young and strong gangs in the capital to find ways to seize the military power of the new army!

Tieliang often made unrelenting words, demanding that the court expel Han ministers and abolish all Han ministers' military power. He used extremely aggressive and insulting remarks to provoke ethnic conflicts between the Han and Manchu.

When Wang Yi read the report of the Northeast Intelligence Bureau on Tieliang, his mind reminded him of a Japanese manure fork in later generations - Lao Tui and Shintaro Ishihara. And it was such a person. The Qing court had issued an order to ask Yuan Shikai to let Tieliang take charge of the command of the first town of the new army.
