Wang Maoru came to the Ministry of Transportation as usual to report, but was turned away again. After making a record, no one paid attention to him anymore. Since the flight department was newly added, there was not even an office. Even the person who was watching the door at the gate sniffed him, looking tall and arrogant.

Seeing their cold behavior, Wang Maoru thought to himself why the Army Department was still fighting with the Ministry of Transportation, and it was obviously not taken seriously, so he left the Ministry of Transportation and came to the Ministry of Transportation in a car. In addition to being the deputy section chief of the Flight Section of the Ministry of Transportation, he also served as the rank of lieutenant of the Central Army. Therefore, it was a formality to report to the Ministry of Transportation. However, the Army Department did not do the same as the Ministry of Transportation. After the notice was made, someone led Wang Maoru to the office of the Deputy Chief of the Army Department.

Now the chief of the army of the Beijing government of the Republic of China is Zhou Ziqi. Duan Qirui, the former chief of the army, was appointed as the chief of the army because he was also the governor of Hubei. Zhou Ziqi, who was born in the Transportation Department, served as the chief of the army. However, Zhou Ziqi, a literati and a Jinshi in the former Qing Dynasty, advocated Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Zuo Zongtang and other scholars, but he did not have the ability. The Army Department was in chaos under his command. Fortunately, the Army Department was managed by Xu Shuzheng, and the Army Department did not have the chaos.

This time, Xu Shuzheng called him. Xu Shuzheng, whose courtesy name is Youzheng, was known as "Little Fan". He is from Liquan Village, Guanqiao Town, Xiaoxian County, Jiangsu Province. He has been very smart and talented since childhood. He is literate at the age of 3, can write at the age of 7, became a scholar at the age of 13, and was a student at the age of 17, and is known as a child prodigy.

In 1901, Xu Shuzheng abandoned his literature and went to Jinan to write a letter to the governor of Shandong Yuan Shikai, who stated his principles of martial arts, but was not appreciated. Later, he was recommended to Duan Qirui's Records Office. In 1905, he was admitted to the Infantry Department of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Office. In 1910, he returned to China. After returning to China, he served as the Military Senator of the Sixth Town of the Qing Dynasty in Duan Qirui's troops, and served as the General Staff of the First Army in 1911. From 1912 to 1914, during which Duan Qirui was appointed as the Chief of the Army, during which time Duan Qirui was appointed as the Director of the Military Academy, Director of the Military Horse Department, and Director of the General Affairs Office. The Presidential Office had just appointed Xu Shuzheng as the Deputy Chief of the Army Department. He was only 34 years old this year, the youngest among all the Deputy Chiefs.

His most memorable contribution was to regain Outer Mongolia and unify China by force. Among them, unify Outer Mongolia by force, which made the first contribution to regaining territory in modern times. However, because he became famous early and was deeply appointed by Duan Qirui, he also led to his stubborn and self-righteous character and not being tactful with others. Especially within the Beijing government, various factions struggled continuously, which made him very unpopular, but he had to rely on his talents.

After the secretary brought Wang Maoru in, Xu Shuzheng stared at Wang Maoru with his eyes and put pressure on Wang Maoru without saying a word. Wang Maoru was also very curious about how Chief Xu was such a noble person and came to him. If he had any tasks and requirements, he would just give him a command. He also looked at him curiously. The two of them were paired with mung beans for a long time. After Xu Shuzheng thought about it for a long time, he said, "There is no rules, don't you know if you want to salute?"

"Ah? Oh, salute, hello, Deputy Chief." Wang Maoru hurriedly saluted a military salute, but he really forgot that he had the rank of lieutenant.

"Hmph!" Xu Shuzheng said, "It's not so good. Why join the Transportation Department?"

Your old man asked really directly, but your Army Department did not send anyone to win over him. What does this have to do with me? Wang Maoru smiled bitterly and said, "I have not surrendered to any party. I am just a businessman. I was a soldier who was recruited by the Presidential Palace. It was not what I thought of being a lieutenant."

Wang Maoru's tough answer made Xu Shuzheng look at him a few more times and said, "Okay, now that he is serving the Central Army, he must serve the Army Department and the front line in the future. I heard that your plane is well-built and can fly ten kilometers?"

"Occasionally, we fly ten kilometers, but our employees and technicians are improving. It is estimated that ten kilometers is fine, but the practicality of the aircraft still needs to be improved." Wang Maoru replied.

"Can you perform reconnaissance missions?"

"Can."

"Okay, when fighting in the future, your flight department must cooperate with the army."

"yes."

"You go down." Xu Shuzheng said.

Wang Maoru said: "Chief Xu, I have something I want to ask for advice."

"speak."

"Since the Flight Department is going to perform reconnaissance missions, it can be considered a combat sequence, then I wonder if the factory guard team in my factory can be changed to a garrison team and join the military sequence? It is not justified. With the establishment of the Army Department, we can better protect the planes and the airports. What I am worried about is that those Kuomintang people take the opportunity to make trouble." Wang Maoru said.

Today's aircraft are at most reconnaissance in Europe. The military of all European countries despises the combat role of aircraft. Moreover, they are only willing to use aircraft as the eyes of the army. For this reason, European countries and even Japan have listed the air force as Army Aviation and Navy Aviation for Army Aviation and Navy Aviation. Until before World War I, pilots from the two countries met in the air and greeted each other.

The earliest air combat was also during World War I. French pilot Andre flew a biplane to the Liege area of ​​Belgium for reconnaissance missions. At the same time, German pilot Hans also flew the plane to the Marne River to perform the same mission. After the two planes met in the air, Hans waved his hand gentlemanly to Andre according to the pilot's habit of driving, and Andre did not take this trick. He stretched out his little finger at Hans mockingly. This behavior made Hans angry, and he quickly turned around and flew towards Andre, and Andre also also

Turning around and circling with it, and once again stretched out his little finger to show insult. Hans angrily pulled out his pistol to shoot, and Andre also pulled out his pistol. The two shot each other in the air. However, because the pistol's firing speed was slow and the effective shooting distance was short, the two of them were firing bullets, and neither of them hurt anyone, and even the plane was unscathed. However, this also prompted the emergence and development of the air force. After military scientists learned the news, they suddenly realized and urgently converted the plane, thus prompting the plane to transform from the supporting role of the battlefield to the protagonist of the battlefield.

Xu Shuzheng, who returned from studying in Japan, did not take the plane seriously, just like Duan Qirui who studied in Germany, but for reconnaissance, he still fought with the Department of Transportation and obtained the Department of Transportation's commitment that when a war broke out, the Department of Transportation's Flight Department had to assist the Army with all his strength.

Seeing Xu Shuzheng thinking for a while, Wang Maoru hurriedly said, "I just want my factory guard team to have a name. After all, the factory guard team is my personal and belongs to the militia. Let the famous militia team protect the state organs with famous groups, and let people see that our country is full of people? After all, there are ten planes now."

"Hmph, Xiao Wang, don't fool me. There are ten planes, you only have four planes." Xu Shuzheng said.

Wang Maoru opened his mouth wide. How could he know the number of planes he had, and said with an honest look: "Oh, since the second-general knows, we also need to develop. Besides, after the flight team develops strongly, it will be beneficial to the army."
