Chapter 8: The Tibetan Rebellion

  Within a month, Yang Xing assessed the training results and evaluation results of everyone. As a result, 2 squad leaders and 6 class leaders were removed from their positions and demoted to soldiers. New class and squad leaders were elected by anonymous voting among the soldiers and appointed by Yang Xing.

  In this case, the artillery regiment consisted of:

  Lian Chang: Yang Xing

  Deputy Platoon Leader: Liu Ergou

  Document: Chen Xiaoping

  Guard: Yang Siwa

  Teaching Assistant: Yang Daniu

  A row of long: Zhang Aiwen

  Second row: Guo Xiaobo

  Three rows long: Wang Si Ma

  Four rows long: Li San Zui

  Wu Pai Chang: Zhang Er Mao

  In addition, Yang Xing found more than 20 soldiers with better training among these soldiers and turned them into instructor squads. He personally trained these people together with the squad leaders and platoon leaders, and then had these squad leaders and instructor squad soldiers train each squad and platoon.

  Considering that the cook team leader Cui Laoliu kept complaining about the tight budget, Yang Xing decided to establish a soldier committee, with Chen Xiaoping, the clerk of the company, in charge. Two soldiers were selected from each squad to serve for three months to supervise the cooking team's vegetable purchasing process. All expenses incurred by the cooking team during the purchasing process required the signature of the on-duty soldier committee member.

  Make a bulletin board in the accounting department to announce the details of this month's account.

  Seeing the artillery team's work gradually becoming standardized, with the help of some TV dramas from previous lives and military training experience, a new training outline was formulated to enhance everyone's teamwork spirit.

  The next day, after the bugle sounded, the whole regiment completed assembly within 3 minutes. Although this might have been considered poor in a previous life, it was already quite good during the early Republic of China era.

  Yang Xing saw Liu Er Gou was drilling, seeing a large crowd of people in front of him, and immediately walked to the front and said: "Brothers, after a month of training, the whole regiment's spirit and appearance have improved greatly. On this point, I heard some soldiers boasting yesterday that now they should be among the best in the Sichuan army, saying that even if they were pulled out, they would not be inferior to the Beiyang Army."

  Everyone listened and immediately laughed, some people shouted: Lian Chang, tell us, how are we compared to the Beiyang Army?

  Yang Xing suddenly turned serious and said: "You don't know the height of heaven and the thickness of earth. The Beiyang Army has been training for many years, starting from President Yuan's small station training soldiers. It has been several years, with every day being the same. You train like this for a month, and it's like comparing high and low with the Beiyang Army. It's truly speaking while standing with a sore waist, and it's also ignorance."

  As soon as the training standards of the Beiyang Army were announced, everyone was shocked. Some people asked repeatedly: "Company Commander, it's impossible to be so high, Company Commander, it's impossible to be so high?"

  Yang Xing's face sank and he said, "Impossible? How is it impossible? Otherwise, how could Feng Guozhang lead a division to defeat the revolutionary army in Wuchang, Hanyang and Hankou? Look at yourselves, look at your appearance, with such low training levels, you are so self-satisfied, so arrogant. If you really go onto the battlefield, there will only be one outcome: your heads will immediately be used as chamber pots."

  When Yang Xing said this, everyone was shocked. Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Yang Xing raised his right hand and said: "The Beiyang Army can do it, why can't we? Not to mention the Japanese, the Japanese were our vassals in the past, and their training level is even higher than that of the Beiyang Army. Therefore, last night, I drafted a new training outline. I guarantee that after half a year of hard training, everyone will reach the level of the Beiyang Army, and after three years, everyone will reach the training level of the Japanese."

  Seeing everyone's silence, Yang Xing loudly asked: Do you guys want to be inferior, far inferior to the Beiyang Army?

  Everyone heard it and loudly replied: Unwilling.

  Seeing everyone's expression, he immediately announced the training requirements.

  Every morning, conduct 5 kilometers of cross-country training. For the latest class, all soldiers in the class are responsible for cleaning and sanitation of the garrison's common area.

  Morning physical training, including 100m sprint, frog jump, push-up, single-leg lift, combined physical exercise, etc.; grappling, fighting, and bayonet fighting, as well as individual soldier training such as prone position.

  Afternoon military training, including: holding a gun to lie down, holding a gun to get up; movement postures: low posture crawling, high posture crawling, lateral posture crawling, high posture lateral crawling, rolling in. Explanation of artillery structure, artillery maintenance, and artillery aiming exercises.

  In the evening, I study cultural courses, basic mathematical knowledge and physical knowledge.

  Every week, a full assembly exercise is conducted. For the class that performs the worst in the assembly exercise, if there are two instances of being the worst in January, the head of that class will be relieved of their duties.

  He immediately gave orders and they set off on a 5-kilometer run, with everyone carrying their guns, moving forward in accordance with the requirements, Yang Xing frequently came to encourage them.

  Within two months, if a squad achieves and exceeds 4 times the worst performance in assembly drills, the squad leader will be relieved of duty.

  During this period, Yang Xing led the teaching team and the class leaders to repair more than a dozen damaged steel cannons. After a month of effort, they managed to assemble 12 good small steel cannons by dismantling the east wall and repairing the west wall, adding to the original two, making a total of over ten large cannons in the entire unit.

  During the maintenance process, instruct and guide the personnel to learn the disassembly method together, discuss with everyone why these components are damaged during use, and the possible hazards after these components are damaged.

  In the end, for some small cannons that cannot be repaired, teach these trainees to disassemble and reassemble them, and keep the unusable parts as spare parts for future use in repairing large cannons.

  In addition to summarizing training with the platoon leader every day, summarizing problems in the training process, and summarizing how to improve everyone's enthusiasm for training, physical fitness, and tactical training, I also mingle with each platoon and squad, discussing with the platoon leaders and soldiers, summarizing training essentials, and summarizing training methods.

  In the training process, there was intentional or unintentional competition between classes, as a result of which the training level of each class rose sharply.

  I see that these soldiers under my command have a bit of the flavor of the previous life's RMJFJ, seeing everyone familiar with the structure of the big guns, slowly understanding the coordinate axes, understanding the flight principle of shells, understanding the key points of shooting cannons, although it can't be 100% accurate, but the accuracy of the cannon fire has made great progress.

  Yin Changheng, the Grand Governor who had not held much hope for those twenty-odd steel cannons, heard that they were actually able to produce 12 of them, and with the entire fleet having another 14 small steel cannons on top and bottom, secretly thought that he had used the right person.

  Yang Xing is urgently teaching everyone to shoot cannons because the situation in the entire Xikang Province is extremely critical.

  After the Xinhai Revolution, people all over the country were united in the Republic, and also gave an opportunity to petty people. With British support, the 13th Dalai Lama, who had been trying to be independent, took advantage of the domestic chaos to form a Tibetan army of more than 20,000 people in India, attempting an armed rebellion.

  Although Zhao Erfeng, the former Sichuan governor, was very bad in other aspects, he did a good job in cracking down on Tibetan separatist forces and safeguarding national sovereignty.

  In the late Qing dynasty, Zhao Erfeng sent the 1st Mixed Brigade of the 3rd Division to Changdu, on the one hand striking at Tibetan separatist forces and on the other forcibly implementing land reform.

  The so-called "gaitu guiliu" refers to the abolition of the past minority nationality Tusi management system, changing it to a county system, and directly managed by Xikang Province.

  Considering the hardships of Tibetan life, the government collects only a symbolic amount of taxes from the entire Xikang Province each year, just dozens of yaks and hundreds of bundles of Qingke.

  In theory, this system was highly supported by the Tibetans, but due to domestic chaos, Zhao Erfeng was killed, and with the 13th Dalai Lama's organized rebel forces launching a crazy attack, the third brigade, which had penetrated deep into the enemy's territory, was temporarily unable to keep up with supplies and was forced to withdraw from Tibet.

  The whole of Tibet and the Tibetan-inhabited areas in Sichuan, such as Kangding, Garze and Aba, were swept up in a powerful rebellion.

  Under the instigation of the 13th Dalai Lama, the rebels launched a frenzied attack on the Sichuan army stationed in Tibet. Currently, the Sichuan army stationed in Lhasa has been breached by the rebels, and only the Sichuan army in Shigatse and Jiangzi have not been breached due to their strong resistance, coupled with the long distance, making it difficult for the rebels to gather a large army at this time.

  These Tibetans were almost the same as those who rebelled in '09, killing and robbing Hans whenever they saw them. During their retreat, some companies of the Third Regiment even became slaves to local chieftains.

  The news arrived, and the country was in an uproar. People from all over the nation and every county and city in Sichuan gathered to demand that the government take action to rescue the Han people enslaved by the bandits and defend the integrity of national sovereignty.

  Starting from May, Governor Yin Changheng has been in close communication with Yuan Shikai in Beijing. Given the current situation, it is highly likely that Governor Yin, as a member of the Nationalist Party, will send troops to Xikang to crack down on the 13th Dalai Lama's separatist forces.

  Receiving this news from Tao Zekun, Yang Xing was extremely indignant. His past experiences made him deeply resent the 13th Dalai Lama, a political monk who posed a threat to the security of the Southwest.

  Thinking that in the 21st century, China's national power and military strength have been restored, it is actually forced to negotiate with this political thug. What's infuriating is that this political thug considers itself superior to foreigners and demands autonomy for all Tibetan areas, making Dongfang want to find a Tibetan to scold at that time.

  It's hard to imagine that its predecessor was also a split master. Since the Grand Commander wants to conquer these split factions, why not go in person to quell the rebellion.

  I recalled the letter of request for battle that I had heard many times in my past life, and immediately launched a campaign to write letters requesting battle from each platoon and class, while actively preparing for war, conducting long-distance running and practicing shooting and artillery every day.

  It's like this, after arranging for everyone to write letters of encouragement, shouting out "War is bloody training, training is bloody war". After shouting out "First battle use me, using me will surely win", these soldiers' enthusiasm was even higher than before, and their training became more intense.
