Chapter 1080: Gui Yongqing
After a night of repair, Liao Fan and the others recovered their spirit from the previous few days, even if the train is good, it makes people sleep not very peacefully, and it is easy to get tired after a long journey.
However, taking advantage of the time to get off the train, Liao Fan also wrote several plans for the reform of the army into a document and asked the signal corps to send them to various military regions.
"Brother Fan, the car is ready, we have all checked it."
Liao Fan didn't like to sit in the bridge car, so Huai Yuanliang and the others borrowed all the same trucks, and the drivers were all from their own guard troops.
"It's the same as before, we're in the carriage."
Ordinary trucks also look relatively safe, if you change to other luxury cars, people think at a glance that the car is sitting on a big person, after all, in this era can sit alone in the car is not ordinary people.
"Yes!"
Despite a night's rest, they continued to consume their bodies on such a journey. Fortunately, the trucks mainly take the official road, and there are relatively few cars in this era, and the speed along the way is also fast and the car is stable.
"Brother Fan, they get on the third car! The rest of the personnel get on the bus in shifts. ”
Huai Yuanliang is responsible for arranging the vehicle, for Liao Fan's safety, Liao Fan and they are not necessarily in that car, they are a guard force, they need more than a dozen trucks, and outsiders don't know which car Liao Fan is in.
The convoy passed through several uneven places along the way, but there were troops guarding the checkpoints in these places. When they saw that it was their own army vehicle, they immediately let it go, which was the order given to them today.
"It is said that there are bandits in the surrounding mountains!" Du Yuming looked at the surrounding peaks.
When Liao Fan heard Du Yuming's words, he also looked at the surrounding peaks, although the mountains here were as steep and continuous as the peaks of Taihang Mountain. But because it is located in the south, the jungle on these mountains makes up for it, although the mountains do not look big, but the internal environment is much more complex than the Taihang Mountains.
"The existence of bandits means that the local people are not living well, otherwise who has a peaceful life, but wants to go to the mountains to live this kind of bandit-like life?"
Liao Jundong pointed out the crux of the problem in one word, as long as there are bandits in the place, it means that life in this place is really unbearable.
Liao Fan didn't speak, because as long as there are bandits, it is the responsibility of their troops, and the local economic development has a lot to do with Liao Fan, and it is their responsibility if the economy does not develop.
"As long as they don't endanger the local people, I still plan to give them a way out."
When the order to suppress the bandits was given, Liao Fan said that as long as these bandits were not traitors, he would give them a way out. On the contrary, during the war years, some bandits sold national interests to earn their own benefits, and even if such bandits surrendered, Liao Fan would not let them die well in the end.
The truck passed through the mountains, getting closer and closer to Gui Yongqing's headquarters.
"According to the reports from the various outposts, Fange's convoy will be able to reach our headquarters tomorrow night."
Gui Yongqing sat in a chair, his back to the door of the headquarters, facing a large map hanging on the wall, which was about the topography of Guangdong.
"Let the surrounding troops not relax their vigilance, and once they find something abnormal, they will assemble and set off on their own without my orders."
For Gui Yongqing, Guangdong is a strange place, although he has been to Guangdong, but he has never paid attention to the terrain of Guangdong, if a battle breaks out in Guangdong in the future, at that time to remember the terrain, I am afraid it will be too late.
Of course, he had to remember not only the terrain, but also how many roads and rivers there were, and make thorough preparations for future incidents, which was the foundation of his protection of Guangdong, and it was also his duty as a military commander.
At this time, the governor of Guangdong was Jiang Guangnai, since the last time Jiang Guangnai fought in Guangdong, he was under house arrest, Liao Fan once tried to save him, but in the end he did not take action.
But after the peaceful founding of the country, Jiang Guangnai also had to get out of danger. Originally, Liao Fan wanted him to stay in the army, at least to keep Jiang Guangnai by his side and help with advice.
Jiang Guangnai, who had experienced the last incident, did not want to stay in the army, and Liao Fan did not force him to stay, so he returned to his hometown and became the parent official of his hometown.
Fortunately, Jiang Guangnai is a Cantonese and has enough prestige in the local area, and the people can be regarded as supporting him.
"Report to the army commander, do you want to inform Governor Jiang about Brother Fan's coming to Guangdong?" An officer asked Gui Yongqing.
Gui Yongqing still looked at the map and didn't turn around: "Brother Fan, if you want Jiang Guangnai to know, you will definitely inform him, it's not something we have to worry about." ”
Local military affairs and government affairs are completely separated, that is to say, Gui Yongqing is not considered to be a military commander, but he is subject to the constraints of the provincial governor and the finance minister. In other words, these three departments can be said to be on an equal footing.
"Are we arranging protection?" The officer continued to ask.
"It is said that Brother Fan's guards can block the attack of a squad of little devils in a squad, although I don't think it is so strong, but do you think Brother Fan will hand over his safety to a group of waste and rice buckets? Huai Yuanliang was followed by General Chen before, and I still know something about this person. ”
Gui Yongqing is no stranger to Chen Cheng, and naturally he also knows a little about Huai Yuanliang, and the people who can mix around Chen Cheng and Liao Fan will naturally not be small.
"Arrange people, just be responsible for Brother Fan's food, clothing, housing and transportation! We don't have to worry about the rest. ”
Although Gui Yongqing doesn't know Liao Fan, if this trip is changed to Gui Yongqing, such a long journey, the most worrying thing is that he can't eat well and sleep well, after all, a person's physical strength is limited, and it is very tiring to spend it on the journey.
"Yes!"
There was still a day left before Liao Fan arrived at his headquarters, and Gui Yongqing wondered what Liao Fan's place was going to be.
In fact, when he received that Liao Fan was coming to Guangdong, Gui Yongqing just reminded the adjutant around him and asked him to inform him on the last day Liao Fan arrived here.
For Gui Yongqing, Liao Fan is really not a big deal, in terms of military affairs alone, he Liao Fan just took advantage of the time, place and people, if he had such conditions, he would have done the same as Liao Fan.
However, he also has to admit that Liao Fan's heart is indeed bigger than his, if he is sitting in this position today, I am afraid he really can't tolerate such a situation.
It was precisely because of admitting this that he was willing to become a military commander, otherwise with his ability to be the 13th Taibao back then, the commander-in-chief of a military region would not be a problem.
Of course, Liao Fan's arrival was indeed a headache for Gui Yongqing at the beginning, and it was even more uncomfortable to receive his boss than to receive his enemies. When the enemy comes, if you have the ability, you will kill it, and if you don't have the ability, you will endure it! But the boss who receives you, whether you have the ability or not, you have to coil if you are a dragon, and you have to lie down if you are a tiger.
If the other party is in a bad mood, even if you are a fierce beast, you still have to sell cuteness, behave meekly and make the other party happy.
Therefore, receiving Liao Fan is Gui Yongqing's biggest headache, and in the face of the most headache, Gui Yongqing has his own thoughts, that is, until the last moment, he will treat this matter as if there is no such thing. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and Liao Fan will have a way to deal with it when he comes.
"Sad, sad, I never thought that being an official would be so tired!" Gui Yongqing looked at the map.
The people next to him didn't know if he was sad about looking at the map, or because Liao Fan came to his military headquarters.
"Signal soldiers, inform the division commanders that they will come to the military headquarters tomorrow."
No matter what Liao Fan came to Guangdong this time, as the military commander here, he must report to Liao Fan about the situation of the troops, and of course the division commander under him is indispensable.
"Commander, is Brother Fan here to inspect this time, or is there something else?"
"You ask me?"
Gui Yongqing also wanted to find out why Liao Fan asked why he suddenly came to Guangdong, although he had some gossip, but these gossip messages were sometimes very unreliable, and even some of them were in the opposite direction.
And Liao Fan is not the kind of person who likes to tell others his whereabouts and purpose casually, they just guess this kind of thing.
Regardless of whether Gui Yongqing liked it or not, Liao Fan's convoy still arrived at Gui Yongqing's headquarters as scheduled.
Liao Fan also met Gui Yongqing for the first time, not that Liao Fan didn't want to meet him, but that he didn't have the opportunity to meet at all.
"When I came to you this time, I didn't ask about defense, and I didn't inspect the army."
Liao Fan saw several division commanders beside Gui Yongqing, and he understood that Gui Yongqing must have regarded Liao Fan as if he had come to inspect the troops.
"Report to Brother Fan, our troops are ready to be dispatched at any time."
Regardless of whether Liao Fan came to inspect the troops or not, as long as Liao Fan came, his troops would be dispatched at any time.
"These are the four division commanders under your command?" Liao Fan asked.
"Yes, after receiving Brother Fan's order to go to Guangdong, I ordered them to come together." Gui Yongqing concealed his meaning in front of Liao Fan at all.
If Liao Fan really doesn't like him, he doesn't like it, anyway, Gui Yongqing doesn't like Liao Fan very much. As for Liao Fan, if he really wants to suppress him, he really doesn't have the ability to resist in the army.
"Let them go back, it's enough to have you here."
Although Liao Fan didn't know these division commanders, if they really had the ability. It will definitely attract Liao Fan's attention.
Since Liao Fan gave the order, there was no need for the four division commanders to continue to stay here, they could only come in a hurry and go back in a hurry.
"I don't know why Brother Fan came to Guangdong this time?"
"Oh? Haven't you heard? ”
Liao Fan thought that Gui Yongqing already knew about what happened in Qingdao, so he could also know what Liao Fan went to Qingdao for, and he would also guess what happened to Guangdong.
"Since the stability of Guangdong, government and military affairs have been busy, and in addition to holding large and small meetings every day, our military commanders have to accept orders constantly issued from above." Gui Yongqing's adjutant said.
