Chapter 768: The Fourth Covenant of the Ganges

Mai Ke led the Raptor Brigade to the banks of the Indus River, preparing to suddenly join in those fierce battles, turn the tide of the battle in one fell swoop, and take down the last territory in the Southwest Asian, Indian and Pakistani regions.

Unexpectedly, Peter's message disrupted his plans.

It turned out that Peter told him that the preparations for the Ganges covenant had been completed, and that the celebration would be held soon, when in fact the target date that everyone had decided in advance was today.

Although he was a little unhappy, Mai Ke still resolutely turned a ninety-degree bend and flew north; as for the Raptor Brigade, Da Niu arranged for a squad of guards to lead it, and continued to march westward to find Liuhua.

Although the preparations for the Ganges Covenant were all in place, there was still one thing that had not been done - the Covenant Commander was still there waiting for the Lord.

Xiao Chaogui and Peter have been looking for and inspecting this candidate for the past few days, but all of them have not been satisfactory; Mai Ke has no choice but to adopt the mentality of "there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain".

He remembered the task given to Gu Jizhi to draw an administrative map for the Indian Peninsula Alliance;

Gu Jizhi? There is also a surname Gu? Yes! Gu Yanzhi!

He's my assistant to the acting prime minister! I've been hiding in the snow for a long time.

He should be the perfect person to be the leader of the covenant! Yes, he is it!

This time, Mai Ke is really in a talent emergency, and the best of the talent pool that was originally prepared has been sent to those holy cities in the Indian Peninsula to be mayors.

All are used by local Indians, including those who are untouchable. It's mostly symbolic, and it's a bit overwhelming for them to do their jobs.

Therefore, he has asked Feng Yunshan to try his best to find a way to release all the people in the talent pool, and let them go to those cities that have been built to be mayoral assistants, and if they need it, they can either be the mayor or the mayor's assistant, and they can go to the newly built holy cities in need to provide support.

In particular, the battle to overthrow the Manchus was about to begin, and thousands of mid-level cadres were to be sent to the newly occupied areas.

Mai Ke was thinking about cadre reserves. Lingxi had already taken Gu Yanzhi over with a move. Directly on the back of the clouded leopard that Mai Ke was flying.

In order to facilitate talking, Mai Ke simply made out the transparent space again, and the two of them entered it and sat on the ground. A brief description of what has happened since the last parting.

Mai Ke listed the important things he did. It took ten minutes. Just told Gu Yanzhi in general terms that the Celestial Army had occupied Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Southwest Asia, regardless of the ground. or the population, which greatly exceeded the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

In fact, although Mai Ke said it accurately, Gu Yanzhi did not have a very clear concept, let alone these Asian regional music, even how big China's territory is, he is not very clear.

Mai Ke sighed, isn't this a white man's eyes for the blind man!

He didn't talk about it anymore, and promised that after he finished boarding, he would beat him around and shock him fiercely.

Gu Yanzhi also reported the situation of Niangzishui, mainly after Tan Guo and the others left, because he knew what happened before, Tan Guo must have reported it to Mai Ke.

The production of gold is very stable, and after the last report by Tan Guo, according to Mai Ke's instructions, two measures were taken.

The first is to limit the gold output of the Yindong mine, which is based on the initial production of four tons in one month, and gradually decreases it, and now the output is set at two tons a month.

In terms of the extraction of sand from the gold mines, it was even less, because Maike later provided a more refined refining process than the original system, which increased the extraction rate of pure gold by 50 percent.

As soon as such measures were implemented, the number of miners was reduced from 4,000 at the beginning to 3,000 now.

The second measure is to declare the Yindong area a military restricted area, strictly prohibit the entry of the living, and the news of the deposit mine and gold production will not leak out. Because this golden mountain is so eye-catching, if you don't pay attention to it, it will attract snoopers, and those who take risks will also flock to it.

In addition to strictly guarding the secret, otherwise the information will be leaked, the mine has also strengthened protection.

In order to achieve this goal, the miners who have been laid off are still engaged in related industries and still live in this forbidden area, so that they will not be targeted and leak secrets, intentionally or unintentionally.

The vast majority of these people have switched to maintaining the mine team, doing some patrolling, guarding, complete work, etc.

"How is Zhang Wen?" Mai Ke cared about this old man, and after Mai Ke left, Gu Yanzhi took over the main liaison work.

One of the two is a generation of Confucianism, a high-ranking official of the heavenly kingdom, and the other is a heirloom of poetry and books, and the current county magistrate, and they communicate with each other and have countless common languages.

After coming and going, the two developed from a working relationship to a friendship that was irreversible.

So much so that later, after three successes, the two of them would get together, drink a little wine, and talk about the mountains.

"That guy has made a fortune!" Michael still remembers that at the beginning, Zhang Wentang, the county master, owed a lot of debts, couldn't plug the hole, and was so anxious that he was like a fire in the house.

As a result, Michael made a small trick and let him participate in the promotion of bottled river water of life, which not only immediately blocked the hole, but also made him rich overnight and suddenly became a multimillionaire!

It's tens of millions of silver!

It is estimated that if it were at that rate, the county master would have become the god of wealth a long time ago, and now he has accumulated at least a few hundred million.

"No! He still had only ten million in his hand, and he said that the silver was more than enough to pay the creditors, and that the surplus was not only not good for him, but that it was sufficient for him to cause trouble! ”

"Remember he's already a Christian, right?" Mai Ke remembered that he didn't preach the gospel directly with Mai Ke, but when the Holy City was established that day, the gospel drifted to the county seat with the wind, and Zhang Wen, who was standing south of the county office, happened to hear it.

Therefore, he also decided to believe.

"That's right! Almost the entire county government from top to bottom has been developed into a Christian by him. What's even more interesting is that those who are officials and clerks. Every day begins with prayer. ”

"Do you also have to pray when you try prisoners?" Mai Ke couldn't imagine that Zhang Wen was so devout that he really prayed constantly.

"Needless to say, before each trial, wait for everyone to come together and pray once before proceeding with the following procedure. Gu Yanzhi also said with admiration.

"Did any Manchu troops go to make trouble?" Mai Ke asked worriedly.

Because the Holy City is very wealthy, and the Tan brothers are very generous, even the government is very friendly, and a lot of silver is constantly handed over. They even see some problems. I also closed my eyes. ”

The two of them talked about it, and Gu Yanzhi asked what he was doing this time.

Mai Ke told him about the preparation to make him the head of the Ganges covenant. Say it's a whole new experience. An unprecedented test. It is expected that he will do this well with the knowledge and wisdom of a sophisticated politician and the mentality of a Christian.

As soon as Lao Gu heard this appointment, his mood immediately became happy and sad.

Happily, he has finally gone from a state of almost idleness to the front line of real knives and guns; This covenant leader is completely unfamiliar with him, not to mention that he has never done it, and he has never heard of it!

But since Mai Ke specially called him over, it must be not trivial.

However, even if there are many difficulties, so what? Will my old Gu know the difficulties and retreat? As long as it helps to overthrow the Manchu rule, I will not hesitate!

Therefore, Gu Yanzhi immediately said that he must do this errand well, and at the same time expressed his wish, hoping that when the Manchu rule was overthrown, he could personally participate in it and personally punish a few Manchu villains to comfort the spirits of the ancestors.

Mai Ke agreed to his request without hesitation, so at that time, as soon as the place became normal, he either made a temporary cameo, or changed his job, and participated in it with a different four; besides, the overthrow of the Manchu rule was not something that could be completed in a day or two, at least in a month or two.

Mai Ke did not intend to settle the Manchu Qing as quickly as India did, and he was a little unconvinced that he had occupied such a vast territory so quickly.

The two soon arrived in Delhi, which would also be the headquarters of the Ganges Covenant.

Delhi has changed dramatically!

Last time, Mai Ke put Delhi in order, demolished all the dilapidated residential areas, and built all 100 residential buildings in the western suburbs, with the result that three-quarters of the original area of Delhi was vacated and used as a new development base.

To the south of Delhi, there was a large sloping area, three times the size of the city of Delhi, which Mai Ke designated as the headquarters of the Ganges Covenant, with other facilities besides a 150-story skyscraper.

Mai Ke named this place New Delhi.

Since then, it has become the New Delhi Special District, or New Delhi for short, which actually includes Old Delhi.

On the tenth floor of the skyscraper, there is a circular display stand, which can be used as a platform for various events, and as an exhibition stand, and when there are no events, as a window for advertising.

Among other features, one of the features of this circular booth is that it can rotate automatically, so that the people on it can take care of all directions without moving, so that everyone standing around can see it.

When Mai Ke and Gu Yanzhi arrived, they were all ready, and Peter, Xiao Chaogui and other senior officials were already waiting there.

As soon as Peter saw the two of them stepping down from the clouded leopard, he immediately announced in his loud voice: "The inaugural meeting of the Ganges Covenant is now open!

Mai Ke couldn't cry or laugh, this brother is still so hot!

Mai Ke walked up quickly and announced the appointment of Gu Yanzhi!

Gu Yanzhi also went to the stage to measure his face, but obviously no one knew who he was.

Then Mai Ke appointed two covenant leaders, both of whom were well known to everyone—one was Nehru and the other was Jawaharlal Ignorance.

All three men came in a hurry from the work they were doing, and after Mike announced it, they took the oath of office together, and put their hands on their Bibles, pledging to serve the people wholeheartedly and glorify God.

Then Peter was about to announce what was going on, when suddenly, a shrill howl came from the western mountains!

Mai Ke looked up, not good!

A black round thing, at a speed that is difficult to see with the naked eye, flew towards the rostrum!

Mai Ke hurriedly rose into the air and rushed towards the thing, he had already identified that it was a bombshell!

It was a dull rumble that everyone heard, coming from the West Mountain.

If this bomb blows up a skyscraper, it's a big joke!

In just two or three seconds, Mai Ke was sweating profusely, and his brain was racing faster than ever, thinking about how to resolve the crisis.

In the midst of the emergency, he turned on all the power he was carrying and decided to take a risk!

He quickly approached the bottom of the bomb and, with a gentle movement of his mouth, pushed at the south bottom of it, causing it to change its direction slightly.

The bombs and skyscrapers will pass over the huge crowd on the east side of the building, plunge headlong into the river, and explode!

Although the catastrophic consequences of the collapse of the building and the heavy casualties were avoided, the bomb still caused heavy casualties!

It turned out that there were a considerable number of boats moored in the river, and they were all visitors who came from afar along the river, and most of them went ashore, but some of them watched the ceremony on the boats and did not go down, plus the crew members above.

This explosion sank five ships at that time, killing nearly a thousand people!

And Mai Ke, at this time, didn't care about anything else, and went straight to the source of the bomb!

If there are a few more, Mai Ke can't guarantee that they will all succeed like the first one!.
