Later, when he returned to Qiqihar, Wang Maoru went to the summary meeting of the whole division for the recruitment of the student division, at which he scolded the soldiers of the student division: "The march is chaotic, the battle is clueless, and the defense is full of potholes, are you being a soldier?" You're an army? Can you represent China in the European War? Look at yourselves, what are you all about? After three months, the whole army will be assessed, and all those who fail to pass the military level will be banned from going to Europe! "The students who listened were terrified, they couldn't go to Europe, they couldn't go to Europe! We went to Heilongjiang from Guangzhou, Hunan, Sichuan, Shanghai, Jiangsu, and Shandong, why? One is passionate, and the other is to go to Europe, especially after the European war can provide the opportunity to study in Europe. Besides, how humiliating must that be? The division of 16,000 people was actually brushed down, and I heard that they had to rush back to their hometowns, not only losing their own people, but also losing the faces of their families.

After Wang Maoru finished scolding these student soldiers, he appointed He Anding to temporarily serve as the deputy commander of the First Division of the participating army, and Colonel Mao Ziping, a staff officer of the headquarters, temporarily acting as the chief of staff of the division, responsible for the training arrangements of the student army. The 1st and 2nd Divisions of the participating armies were pure infantry divisions composed of three infantry brigades, each numbering 16,000 men, consisting of infantry brigades and cavalry regiments. Due to the restrictions of foreign powers, it was difficult for Wang Maoru to buy artillery from abroad, so Wang Maoru never increased artillery again. Japan, the only country that could provide Wang Maoru with cannons and shells, also put up a shelf at this time, and the price of shells had changed from the original 15 yuan per round to 25 yuan per round, which was really ridiculously expensive. (The exchange rate of the silver dollar has always been volatile, but the purchasing power of a silver dollar is about 450 RMB in 2012.) ）

Wang Maoru was even more eager to build his arsenal as soon as possible, and Han Linchun, the general office of the arsenal, worked overtime to recruit workers. At the same time, relying on his previous connections in the War Department, he attracted many workers and technicians from the Guannai Arsenal. Because of Han Linchun's digging of the wall, the arsenals of Baoding and Datong almost came to a standstill.

After Russia's concessions, Wang Maoru can be regarded as a big show in the country, if it is said that in the past, the status of literati was much higher than the status of military generals, but since the beginning of the Opium War, the national strength has been weak, and the people have not tasted a victory in foreign wars since the end of the Qing Dynasty. The Russians conceded. It's not just a diplomatic victory. It is even more the credit of Wang Maoru, a military general known as the Northern Shangwu, if it were not for his tough attitude and the courage to force him almost to the end, how could the Russians make concessions? How can Harbin workers get a good death?

It was as if they had forgotten and instigated the workers to come into conflict with Russia. It was this iron-blooded general whom they worshipped.

All kinds of praise poured in, Wang Maoru threw the newspapers aside and ignored them, only he knew how dangerous it was, he gambled, he gambled, he gambled that the Russian strike would seriously hurt Russia's vitality, and that after the railway was paralyzed, the army in Vladivostok would not be able to support Harbin by railroad and sea, and he also gambled on his own luck.

Able to cross. Lucky enough, it seems that God treats himself well, he hasn't slept a day in the past few days, and he is worried about walking on thin ice every day, and it has finally been solved. His tough move has caused a national discussion. This time, there is no one who is not applauded, whether it is a partner or an enemy, they all applaud his bold shot.

After this battle, Wang Maoru's image in the army was even higher, and the atmosphere of personality cult was also transmitted from the old army to the new army. Even some students in the new army were preparing to form a party and elect Wang Maoru as the leader, but because of the restrictions of party management methods, soldiers were not allowed to join the party. Pu Ji immediately saw the wind and rain, and asked people to make Wang Maoru's avatar badge and distribute it to the soldiers who worshiped Wang Maoru for free, and for a while, this badge was spread all over the army.

After Wang Maoru knew, he called Pu Ji over, touched the mustache with his head with one hand, and stretched out his thumb with the other hand and said, "You can fucking think of this?" How did you grow this brain? ”

Pu Ji laughed and said, "Big brother, did you mention it to me before, and you forgot it?" ”

Wang Maoru stroked the mustache at the corner of his mouth, looked at the avatar, looked in the mirror again, laughed, not to mention, a bit like Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows, and said quite narcissistically: "I really forgot about it, you have a good memory." ”

"Don't worry, big brother, although you are not the leader of any party now, everyone in our army only listens to you." Pu Ji said, "No one will question your decision. ”

"Okay." Wang Maoru was very satisfied, and he didn't know how to thank this brother. "However, if the ideological education is deepened, deepened, and deepened, they must have the idea that this army can have no people, and it must not do without me, and the country can have no people, and it must not do without me."

"Don't worry, the soldiers and the common people are very stupid, after they sing ten times that the eldest brother is the emperor, they will treat you as the emperor."

Wang Maoru shook his head, "China doesn't need people to be emperors, throughout the ages, how many people have become emperors, but they have no children and grandchildren, I'm not stupid about this, you just need to make me their leader, the only leader." ”

"No problem, I'm good at this, but I still need the cooperation of Li Ziwen's pen, this kid has been shaking recently, and he married a female student from Nanyang University, it's really ...... Catch a break. Pu Ji said indignantly: "By the way, this kid is married, eldest brother, it's almost the end of the year, how are you going to handle the marriage between you and the ninth princess Ulan Tuya?" ”

"I'll leave it to you." Wang Maoru trusted him and said.

"Look, big brother." Uratsugi said with confidence that he was determined to make this wedding the best and biggest and dazzling the world.

Pu Ji has this good, although he is a gentleman, and he can't rest assured that he can do things, but he can always complete the things that Wang Maoru has explained, and no one dares to pat his chest and say to the big handsome like him, you can rest assured, Pu Ji will dare. Of course, even if Pu Ji did something wrong, Wang Maoru would not say anything, at most he would laugh and scold. Others don't have the courage to do this, for fear that they will lose their career after doing something wrong.

On October 26, the unwilling Russian army built a fort in Fularji, Qiqihar, which angered Wang Maoru, the overseer of Heilongjiang, who had a completely different personality from Bi Guifang and Zhu Qinglan. Wang Maoru's attitude was even tougher, and he directly ordered the troops remaining in Qiqihar to bayonet the Russian army. The Russian army that repaired the fort only had a few hundred people, more than 30,000 people, the bullets were loaded, the bayonets were loaded, and the combat knives were held high, so frightened that the Russian captain Belie had to send a telegram to Horvat for help. After hearing this, Horvat sighed and said, "Withdraw, don't repair the fort, wait for the domestic riots to subside, and then find Wang Maoru for revenge." Immediately, the Russian army canceled the plan to build the fort, and Wang Maoru then ordered the army to return to the barracks.

At the beginning of November, Zhang Boling, the principal of Nankai Middle School, came to Harbin to give a speech in Harbin, and later came to Qiqihar to visit his students in the army cadet division.

Zhang Boling wanted to see what happened to his students, these students were his heart, and he was fooled by Wang Maoru to come here to be a soldier, which really made him unwilling. Zhang Boling thought that he would come over to persuade these children to go back, but he wanted to see the students wearing black woolen military uniforms, cross armed belts, carrying E1-style rifles on their backs, and black high-top leather boots on their feet, standing in front of him energetically, and many of them actually grew tall. Moreover, Wang Maoru's soldiers' momentum of always holding their heads up and holding their heads high and arrogantly facing all their opponents also surprised Zhang Boling at once. He grew up so big, it's not that he hasn't seen soldiers, and he himself is an officer of the Beiyang Naval Division, after the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, because there were not enough naval warships, he resigned from the navy to develop education. It was the first time he had seen such a proud soldier, especially since these arrogant guys were still his own students, which was enough to arouse his pride.

Zhang Boling also knew that if these students were allowed to go back at this time, I am afraid that none of them would leave. As a former soldier, Zhang Boling knows too well the habits of soldiers, and an army full of combat effectiveness and hope is very attractive to soldiers.

Later, Wang Maoru learned of Zhang Boling's arrival and immediately sent someone to invite him over. Although Zhang Boling scolded Wang Maoru for recruiting students from all over the country to form a student teacher, Wang Maoru never got angry, and he also admired this educator and the president of Nankai University for a long time. Adjutant Wei Dongling led him to the meeting room, Wang Maoru held his hand tightly and said eagerly: "Principal Zhang, I have heard of your name for a long time, but you are my idol." ”

Zhang Boling smiled bitterly and said: "Wang Dashuai, you are making fun of me, if you want to say that the most famous in the country today is still your martial general who forced the Russians." ”

"Hahaha, Mr. Boling, please take a seat." Wang Maoru said enthusiastically, and said: "Governor Tang (Tang Shaoyi) is too busy, and he asked me to convey my welcome to Mr. Boling. ”

Zhang Boling asked: "General Shangwu called me here, isn't it the queen of the autumn to settle accounts?" ”

Wang Maoru laughed and said, "Mr. Boling, I am a person who holds grudges, you scolded me for being a human trafficker in Tianjin Daily, but I remember it, you can't deny it." ”

Zhang Boling shook his head and said: "How can I deny it, it was I Zhang Boling who said that you abducted 734 students from my Tianjin, but I was abducted by you 170 people in Nankai Middle School, alas, there are not even a few schools in Tianjin that open normally." What are you saying you're not a human trafficker? You, a general, are more ruthless than human traffickers, and those who are deceived will hate them when they know that they are human traffickers, and these students know that they are still moths to the fire, alas. ”
