The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

Chapter 51: Give Guns and Money to Accelerate Development

Seeing that General Duan had been brought out, the generals and officers who were watching the fun all left silently, leaving only Master Zhang Ye and his apprentice laughing awkwardly.

"Chao Rong, this is General Xu Zhenlin!"

Huang Weize was just trying to help a student expand his network, but unexpectedly he met Lao Xu. He was not going to let this opportunity go easily.

"General Xu was also paying attention to the battle two days ago. You really became famous in one battle."

"Haha, we just ran into some bandits. It's not a big deal. I didn't expect it would alarm the officers."

Zhang Ye scratched his head and smiled innocently, but he couldn't help but secretly look at the "Little Xu" who was famous in history, wanting to see what was different about this big guy.

When Xu Linlin saw this scene, the little girl rolled her eyes and couldn't help complaining.

"You weren't like this at the restaurant. Where's that crazy energy?"

"Uh..." Zhang Ye didn't expect that this girl would not give him any face at all. His expression froze immediately and he rubbed his palms awkwardly.

"Go play over there, let's talk business!"

Xu Zhenlin glanced at his precious daughter with a hint of disdain. This girl was spoiled by him. She spoke without considering the occasion and without considering other people's feelings at all.

"Humph, I'm not happy to stay!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Linlin left angrily with her chin held high.

Seeing that his daughter was so ignorant, Lao Xu was at a loss as to what to do. He smiled bitterly, shook his head and said.

"Girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up. This girl is becoming more and more disobedient. It seems that she should find a family to marry off as soon as possible."

"It won't take long for General Xu's daughter to find a good family."

Huang Weize continued with a smile and joked.

"My girl has the same temper. She's always trying to find ways to go against you. It's such a headache."

"All kids are like this. Your Shanshan is about to graduate, right? When will she be back?"

Xu Zhenlin chatted casually on this topic.

"It's almost time. I should be back by the end of the year."

When talking about his daughter, although Huang Weize said he disliked her, the smile on his face never stopped.

"My mother missed me so much when I went abroad to study this time. She kept talking about it at home and wanted to go over there to have a look."

"It's pitiful how pitiful parents are. All parents have this mentality, worried that their children will suffer hardships outside."

Xu Zhenlin sighed lightly, turned to look at Zhang Ye and asked.

"Chao Rong, where are you from? Is there anyone else at home?"

"Commander, my hometown is Tianjin. My parents died when I was twelve or thirteen, and I grew up surrounded by beggars." Zhang Ye recalled the original owner's identity information and said matter-of-factly, "I later joined the army and made two meritorious contributions, which led to me being recommended to study at the Baocheng Military Academy."

"It's really not easy for you to get to where you are today."

Xu Zhenlin took the two of them to a rest area and sat down. Then he took out a box of cigarettes, lit it himself, squinted his eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

"The bandit attack on the city has come to an end. Mo Tianhua's demotion has been announced to the entire army. The Feng faction will give you 100,000 yuan in compensation and will also assign Fushui County to you."

"really?"

Zhang Ye confirmed with a little excitement after hearing this.

In fact, for him now, these two rewards are meaningless. He has already occupied Fushui County. No matter whether the Feng family is willing or not, he will not retreat as long as they do not send a large army to besiege him.

As for the 100,000 oceans, it was something dispensable. Although money was important these days, it was not an urgently needed resource for Zhang Ye at the moment.

If he wants to make money, he can just use the old tricks and disguise himself as a bandit to rob wealthy families with bad reputations. That would be faster than printing money!

The reason why he acted so excited was just to prove his position to the two superiors.

"Of course it's true. They're in the wrong here. I think Fushui County is too little."

Xu Zhenlin took a deep puff of his cigarette, and a hint of worry appeared in his deep eyes.

"If I wasn't afraid of escalating the conflict again, I would definitely make Old Feng lose a piece of his flesh this time."

"That's all right, Commander. It's better to have it than not to have it. We haven't suffered any serious losses. We just consumed some bullets and artillery shells."

Zhang Ye blinked his eyes and deliberately brought up the issue of ammunition consumption, hoping to make some money from it.

He is not satisfied with just giving him money, as giving him ammunition is not as cost-effective as giving him money.

"Okay, if you want military supplies, just tell me directly. Stop beating around the bush."

A smile appeared on Xu Zhenlin's lips. He was not disgusted by this guy's cleverness.

He knew better than anyone that if you want the horse to run, you have to feed it some grass from time to time.

Zhang Ye went to Jingshan County alone, and without receiving any resources or help from his superiors, he has developed to this level in just over a month, which is quite amazing.

Now, he has made great contributions and brought honor to the entire Duan department. It would be really unreasonable not to give him some substantial rewards at this time.

"Tomorrow, a regiment's worth of weapons and equipment will be delivered to Jingshan County. This will include twelve mountain cannons, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, ammunition, and so on. All will be supplied to the main regiment."

Xu Zhenlin sat up straight, looked into his eyes, and explained in a slightly serious tone.

"If you're short on people, you'll have to figure it out yourself. I don't care what kind of people they recruit, but one thing is for sure: since you've taken the main group's equipment and machinery, you'll have to do the main group's work at the critical moment."

"You fought well this time, but it was only a small-scale encounter after all. It's nothing to be proud of. I hope to continue hearing reports of your victories in the future!"

"Yes, Chief! I promise not to embarrass you and the teacher!"

Zhang Ye stood up happily and responded in a resounding voice.

He has the weapons and equipment of a regiment, and a large supply of weapons. Does this mean that he is now a formal regimental commander?

Will military salaries also be paid by superiors in the future?

"Come on, I'm almost tired of hearing this kind of bullshit."

Xu Zhenlin chuckled, waved his hand, and reminded again.

"When you return, take the time to rest and reorganize the troops and improve their combat effectiveness as quickly as possible. Our Duan faction now controls hundreds of thousands of troops across five provinces and is in urgent need of fresh blood. You must not let us down!"
