In the month and a half when 600 trained soldiers were busy moving materials, learning to build houses, and understanding the characteristics of architecture, Liu Lang was not idle.

The 30 instructors needed, plus the qualified regiment deputy Zhang Ruhao and deputy captain Li Guobin are only 8 people, and the independent regiment is still short of 22 instructors.

Liu Lang had already arranged for the backbone of the Chinese business group to send a caravan to Wuqi Town in northern Shaanxi, where the Red Army had already arrived, where the Red Army had already arrived, where the Red Army had declared the end of the victory of the Great Strategic Shift.

Liu Lang had already learned from the telegram that, as in the previous time and space, the red troops who arrived in Wuqi Town set up an ambush on the outskirts of Wuqi Town in order not to bring the pursuers into the red base area.

However, this time it was different from the cavalry corps of the Northeast Army and the 35th Division of Ma Hongbin, which had defeated and defeated the red troops chasing the red troops in time and space, with a total of more than 2,000 people, and suddenly the red troops with 72 light machine guns, 24 heavy machine guns and 24 mortars almost didn't cry the young marshal who was far away in Xi'an, and a cavalry brigade of the Northeast Army, which did its last bit of brotherly love to the bald boss, only escaped less than one-fifth, and the fierce cavalry of the Ma Jiajun rushed the most ruthlessly and the fastest. Rushed into the ambush circle of the first column and the second column of the red army, which were also on the first line of the Toudaochuan, Erdaochuan, and Sandaochuan, and not a single one of the 3,000 people ran out, and was directly eaten clean.

Not counting the trophies captured by the red troops in this battle, such as more than 600 war horses, light and heavy machine guns, and mortars, the number of enemies destroyed alone was more than double that of time and space, and it directly dealt a painful blow to the warlord cavalry who threatened the base areas in northern Shaanxi.

Even the fierce Ma Jiajun was afraid of the red troops from then on, and no longer dared to shout that "it is easy to eliminate a group of peasant troops". Zhang Shaoshuai's Northeast Army is even far away, and if it continues to fight, it is enough to be a brother with the bald man, but his troops have been defeated. Zhang Shaoshuai is not so lacking, there are no soldiers in his hands, and his brothers have nothing to do.

This time, the caravan of the Huashang Group was not to deliver supplies, but to bring the ten outstanding red cadres back to Sichuan, and Liu Lang even ordered all ten of them to create a new identity.

The identity of the ten people who spoke Cantonese in Guangxi, Guangdong, and Guangzhou, as the former officers of the 19th Route Army, who had disappeared from the ashes, was very suitable. And that's where Zhang Yan's help is needed.

After Liu Lang arrived at the headquarters of the new 61st Brigade and had a secret talk with General Zhang Yan for a night, the identity certificates of the 10 lieutenants stamped with the seal of the new 61st Brigade were put in Liu Tuanzuo's pockets, and at the same time, the new 61st Brigade also supported 12 lieutenants and captains of the Artillery Section, Infantry Section, Baggage Section, and Engineer Section to become the first instructors of the independent regiment's training team.

Liu Tuanzuo paid the training allowance of 50 oceans per month for each of the 12 instructors, as well as the light weapons and equipment that would be delivered to the two infantry battalions of the new 61st Brigade at the end of the first month after Huamei Company was put into operation.

Relying on Liu Lang's assistance alone, an infantry regiment of the new 61st Brigade would be completely reequipped by the end of 1935, with brand-new imitation Hanyang-made rifles, imitation Czech ZB-26 light machine guns, Type 24 heavy machine guns imitating Makqin water-cooled machine guns, and 82-caliber mortars.

And Liu Lang is by no means cutting corners, the light machine guns have even reached one per squad, each infantry battalion has reached 27, and the imitation Makqin 24 heavy machine gun has reached 12, in addition to the 6 machine gun companies directly under the battalion, the three infantry companies have added 2 to each company, and the mortars have reached 6 per infantry battalion, 3 are allocated to the battalion machine gun company, and each infantry company has an 82 mm mortar.

There are also submachine guns, Liu Lang is also very partial to submachine guns, in fact, this is also the favorite of all Chinese troops, because there are few light and heavy machine guns, and all Chinese troops like to use this short-range weapon that can fire quickly as a supplement to fire suppression. Therefore, Liu Lang also specially provided two platoons with 100 submachine guns to the new 61st Brigade.

In addition to not equipping the infantry regiment with mountain artillery, Liu Lang's list of weapons and equipment for the newly formed 61st Brigade even exceeded that of the German Armament Division that the National Army was now reorganizing.

In the face of such a temptation, not to mention creating a fake identity for the "brothers" of the original 19th Route Army, even if Liu Lang said to go and follow me, Brigade Commander Zhang probably did not hesitate at all. Anyway, Liu Xiang and Liu Lang are both surnamed Liu, and both of them have a common characteristic, they especially like "little devils", of course, the word "type" has to be added in front.

If it weren't for Liu Xiang's promise when he recruited the remnants of Zhang Yan, if the war against Japan resumed, the Sichuan army would never be strained, how could Zhang Yan agree to lead the remnants of the army to surrender? The remnants of the 19th Route Army all remember the thousands of brothers who died on the front line against Japan in the "128 Shanghai Incident" three years ago.

Of course, Liu Xiang was dissatisfied with Liu Lang's secret talks and equipment delivery to his subordinates, and he was not happy with anyone, even if Liu Lang was already the nephew he relied on. For Liu Xiang, his little uncle Liu Wenhui, who relied on him to support him, is a lesson from the past, and after he is full-fledged, he will compete with him for the position of the lord of Sichuan Province.

As soon as Liu Lang left the barracks of the newly formed 61st Brigade, he was intercepted by a special car sent by Chairman Liu. This is also to knock Liu Lang, in Sichuan, there is nothing that Liu Xiang wants to know but doesn't know.

Liu Lang was not flustered, and he had no intention of hiding it from Liu Xiang about his close contact with Zhang Yanxin's 61st Brigade. The strength he can control now is only 6,000 troops in the independent regiment and the security regiment, and even if more than 4,300 people in the new 61st Brigade are added, the total is only 10,000, and there is no threat to Liu Xiang, who has a total strength of more than 100,000 troops in 52 regiments.

In fact, Liu Xiang's establishment of the security regiment may not be completely unreservedly on Liu Lang's side, as the lord of Sichuan Province, Liu Xiang's old and spicy methods are not beyond the reach of ordinary people. On the bright side, the independent regiment divided its troops to form the Northern Sichuan Security Regiment doubled the controllable strength to 6,000 people, but in fact, because of the withdrawal of the backbone force, the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment composed of 2,000 veterans and recruits who had been trained for two years in the bloody battle of the Great Wall instantly dropped by one-third, and that was the most direct combat power in the hands of Liu Lang's old foundation.

As for the Northern Sichuan Security Regiment, which is composed of all the officers and soldiers of the former Independent Regiment and the peasants in the countryside of Guangyuan, in Liu Xiang's view, as long as they are human, they have desires. Liu Lang can give the security regiment a generous salary, but he can give the officers of the security regiment a higher status, which Liu Lang can't give. Between fame and fortune, how to choose, Liu Xiang is confident that he can win over such a new army far away from the independent regiment.

This is the traditional practice of China from ancient times to the present, pampering you and guarding against you, and knocking and knocking you from time to time, so that you understand that everything you have now is given by me, but if you are not subordinate, you have to have fun.

Otherwise, the higher the position, the more lonely it becomes! Because the greater the power, the more you desire power, and the essence of wanting to protect power from loss is to guard against everyone, even if it is a pillow person or a nephew, they trust only themselves the most.

As the emperor, it is very majestic to sit on a high seat and look at the mountains, but who can understand the loneliness in their hearts!

Liu Lang didn't understand this in his previous life, he was just a knife, a knife that the country and the nation needed and could be unsheathed at any time. But in this era, he not only wants to become a knife that the country and the nation need, he has to learn to hold the knife, hide the edge, and once it is unsheathed, the wind and clouds will change color. As long as he wants to do more for his country and nation.

So Liu Lang is also learning and improving. He had to learn to swim on the edge of the vortex of power, or his ideals would be wiped out if he wasn't careful. This is not something that can be accomplished by patriotic fervor alone.

First of all, he had to tell the current lord of Sichuan with facts that his eyes were not on Sichuan, but on the wolves in the north of China, who were eyeing the fertile land of China.
