    "Xue Liang heard that Mr. Fang Zhen had established a 'Military Research Association' and had a very in-depth discussion on national defense construction and army building. This move cannot be said to be without benefit, but I think China's current military research has gone astray.  "

    This is what he says from the bottom of his heart, but sometimes sincere words can both impress and hurt people.

    "Military strategic research is Jiang Baili's proud major and interest, and it has also brought him considerable popularity, but being talked about by a child with a yellow mouth makes him unhappy, of course."  Jiang Baili was a proud man at heart, otherwise he would not have committed suicide while serving as the principal of Baoding Military Academy.  Those who commit suicide are often the proudest. Cowards do not dare and do not deserve to commit suicide.

    Of course, with Jiang Baili's self-cultivation, he would not change his expression upon hearing this. He just stared at Zhang Hanqing strangely and said slowly: "Oh, there is something new. I would like to hear the details."

    ¡°It¡¯s a misunderstanding, not the military research itself, but the timing is wrong and the wrong direction was chosen.¡± Zhang Hanqing ignored Jiang Baili¡¯s aggressiveness.  It's a joke. I'm just telling the truth. It depends on how you argue.

    "The current military situation in China, my husband and my uncle are both top military talents, needless to say. We all know that the gap between us and the Western powers or Japanese devils is not a day or two. But where is the difference?

    Is it a strategy?  You must know that China has a civilization of five thousand years, and the works of Chinese military strategists of all ages are like a pile of books.  Even now, China still has many top military scientists, including Mr. Jiang and Cai Shishu.

    Is it the number of people?  China has the largest population. Whenever possible, China can arm hundreds of divisions at any time!

    But why does China still have to endure bullying from foreign powers?  Not long ago, the first unequal treaty since the Republic of China was signed under the force of Japan!  Why?

    It¡¯s very simple, but the strength is not as good as human beings.

    The word "strength" is not the sum of the number of people in the brochure. It compares the comprehensive strength of a country, not the existing military capabilities.  The so-called comprehensive strength, Xueliang believes, is the overall strength of a country, including the integration of political, military, economic, organizational, industrial, etc. capabilities.  In modern warfare, the competition is about logistics and equipment. Of course, will is also indispensable.  But we lack these two things.  The officers and soldiers are fighting for unknown reasons, the military has various factions, the military industry is basically zero, and all weapons are purchased.

    Both Cai Shishu and his husband wanted to build a new army modeled after Germany, but there was no progress for many years.  Shu Xueliang said frankly that in the current center, there has been no support.  It's not that everyone in the center can't see it, but the situation doesn't allow it.

    Mr. Chiang¡¯s army-building theory of learning from Germany is very correct, but we just can¡¯t reach the level of Germany.  Because China is so poor that it cannot afford the salaries of its soldiers, and its divisions can only be equipped with artillery battalions, while the standard German division is an artillery regiment.  As far as this is concerned, China¡¯s current level of development cannot be reached within ten years.

    Even though we have exhausted our national strength and are equipped with the same armaments as Germany, in such a large country with so many places to defend, as long as the enemy has sufficient mobility, we can face the dilemma of insufficient troops in any direction.  Because our equipment cannot be transported to the place where it is most needed in the shortest time!  This is the impact of backward transportation capabilities on the military.

    Weapons will always wear out, they will always need maintenance and repairs, and ammunition will always be consumed.  Can we maintain strong military investment?  Does the financial situation allow it?  Can industrial capacity keep up?  For a country as big as ours, we cannot always rely on buying weapons, but what is our plan?

    "Military is the continuation of politics." Putting aside politics, talking about military affairs is just talking about military affairs on paper. Army-building plans must match the country's conditions. Therefore, Xueliang said that Uncle Shi and the gentlemen's military research direction had gone astray.  "

    Jiang Baili and Cai E nodded after hearing this.  It's nothing. If you don't even understand this at their level, it's an insult to people's intelligence.  Several other "students" in the office also smiled kindly and watched Zhang Hanqing's boastful remarks.  It is quite good for a half-grown doll to have such thinking ability.  Chinese people have a tradition of being good teachers, and as the office of the country's top research institution, it also has a certain demeanor of encouraging the underachievers, so no one interrupted him.

    Jiang Baili smiled and asked, "Does Han Qing have any solution?"

    "Yes!" This is what Zhang Hanqing was waiting for.

    "China currently lacks the spirit of conspiracy. The so-called conspiracy is to use developed industry, agriculture, transportation and economic power to support China's national defense industry, so Xueliang thought of the term 'industry to save the country'. Although it is a clich¨¦, it is  But it is the only way to talk about military development. With strong industrial guarantee, military equipment can be improved and the combat power of officers and soldiers can be qualitatively improved. At that timeWhen we talk about national defense construction, it is strategic.  The current planning can only be regarded as tactical in nature, and cannot be said to be strategic.  "

    Jiang Baili remained calm and continued to ask: "Then do you think that as long as the level of armaments is improved, the combat effectiveness of the army will increase?"

    Zhang Hanqing smiled proudly and said: "Of course not. The issue of military construction is mentioned here again. I just said that the contest of willpower is also an important part of modern warfare. The so-called willpower, from a national level, is the soul of the country.  .With this thing, we can unite the hearts of the nation and have courage when war comes. Sometimes this courage may end a war; from a military perspective, it is the soul of an army. No matter how good it is  Weapons are controlled by the soldiers who master them, and the quality of the soldiers determines the power of the weapons."

    Cai E was deeply touched by this. He once asserted: "If we don't use the military and national principles to popularize righteousness among the 400 million people living today, China will really perish. If we want to build a military and a people, we must first cultivate the soul of the country."  As for the specific content of the "national soul", Cai E has been unable to answer although he has been thinking hard.  He turned his face and asked Zhang Hanqing: "What does Hanqing think is the national soul of China?"

    Jiang Baili also found it interesting. He also restrained his smile and no longer had the thought of looking down upon Zhang Hanqing because of his age: "What does Han Qing think is the soul of China's military?"

    The two of them asked questions at the same time. Coincidentally, one asked about the soul of the army and the other asked about the soul of the country. They spoke together and stopped speaking together, as if they were well-trained.  The two old friends looked at each other and smiled at their tacit understanding.

    Zhang Hanqing said calmly: "Modern China lacks these two things. The lack of national soul means that there is no courage to aspire to become a great power, there is no spirit to gather the scattered people, and there is no way to make the desperate Chinese people feel hope.  And to gather strength for this. The lack of military spirit is the courage of soldiers to face death in any situation, the confidence to win, and most importantly, the army must know who to fight for."

    Cai E laughed, and the concept of "military soul" that had troubled him for many years was shattered by the words of the young boy in front of him.

    Jiang Baili also smiled, yes, what could be a more inspiring national spirit than the upright establishment of a great nation¡¯s self-confidence, self-improvement, and self-pride?  He couldn't believe that these words were spoken by the young man in front of him; he asked Zhang Hanqing with expectation but not confidence: "What do you think, how to forge China's national soul and military soul at this stage?"

    They have been thinking about this issue for a long time and have many plans.  Now, he wanted to hear, since this young man hit the nail on the head, would he have any novel ideas?

    Zhang Hanqing said without hesitation: "Show the spirit of the sword! For soldiers, if they meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. If a soldier is not afraid of death, he will be invincible; for the country, use the spirit of not being afraid of death to build a new era and make an unprecedented achievement."  Great change is the only way to resurrect a country and regain its standing among world powers, and it is especially suitable for China at this stage."

    "Show your sword spirit!" The two people's eyes lit up, and the hearts of everyone in the room were also greatly shocked.  What kind of mind should one have to have such insight?  For the first time, Jiang Baili admired someone from the bottom of his heart, and he was still a little-known young man.  Zhang Hanqing is elegant and gentle, but he still talks calmly and calmly in front of the world's great figures like himself, showing a maturity and wisdom that is asymmetrical for his age. At first glance, he is a well-educated son of aristocratic family.  Is there anyone in the country who can teach such young people?  Why is such an important talent of the country not recommended to serve the country in this troubled time?  With respect and joy, he said happily: "Han Qing's family background makes him a rising star in the military! I don't know who his father was, but Jiang never expected that there would be someone with such insight into current affairs in this world."  !¡±

    Zhang Hanqing smiled Hao Ran, I really don¡¯t dare to take credit for this. If you want to find someone, just ask Li Yunlong.  He said politely: "My father is Zhang Zuolin, whose courtesy name is Yuting."

    "Are you Zhang Zuolin's son?" Jiang Baili suddenly stopped.  Zhang Hanqing suddenly thought of a public case and shouted, "It's not good."

    Still four years ago in 1911, Jiang Baili was promoted by Liang Bi, his fellow non-commissioned officer, and took up the post of commander of the Forbidden Army in Fengtian Province. Later, he was transferred to Zhao Erxun to take up his previous post. In this post, he and Zhang Zuolin were officials in the same dynasty.  However, he was young and successful at the time and graduated from a Japanese university. Of course he looked down on Zhang Zuolin, who had made a fortune, and the two got along very unpleasantly.  When the Revolution of 1911 began and the Northeast was in chaos, Zhang Zuolin, who had already emerged, took the opportunity to kill him.

    As a last resort, he fled from the northeast. Zhang Zuolin hated him and sent people to chase him to the train.  Jiang was in emergency, so the staff on the train opened the restroom for him to use and locked it from the outside (originally, the train would not allow people to use the restroom before departure, which is consistent with modern practice), so he was spared.  Because of this incident, Jiang Baili did not give Zhang Zuolin any shoes in history. In official history, Jiang Baili served as Wu Peifu's chief of staff during the second Zhili-Fengtian War and advocated fighting Zhang Zuolin.

    Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other, and the enemy's son is no exception.  Jiang Baili's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees, and his tone became angry: "It turns out that he is the son of an old friend! I have been looking at each other with admiration for three days since I left. Zhang Zuolin, a mountain lord, actually gave birth to a son like you. What a trick of fate.  Now."
