Liang Changtai is close to 17o tall, and Wei Ze, who is not considered strong, grabbed Liang Changtai's shoulders and dragged Liang Changtai up with all his strength. Wei Ze saw that Liang Changtai was standing firmly, so he let go of his hand and said, "Comrade Liang Changtai, you can do a good job for me now!" What are you kneeling here! We are not allowed to do this in our troops. ”

"Governor! Chief! I beg you to forgive my brother. Liang Changtai said with tears on his face and sobbing.

"You! Sit me down first! Wei Ze dragged Liang Changtai to the side of the chair and asked him to sit down steadily, and then he sat next to Liang Changtai. Wei Ze looked regretful, "Comrade Liang Changtai, I heard about Liang Changan. We didn't take the Governor's Mansion to kill him because he was his younger brother. The matter of getting rid of the water thieves has been discussed by everyone, and you have voted for it! This matter will be left to the comrades in charge of waterway navigation below! ”

"Governor! I'm going with you, and I've made some credit for you, and I'm willing to use this credit to exchange my brother's life! Dudu, there are only two of us in my family, and the other brothers are all gone when they were young! How can you explain to my parents when you let me go home? When Liang Changtai said this, tears rolled down.

Wei Ze patted Liang Changtai on the shoulder, "Comrade Liang Changtai! I just told you that you are a very important member of our Governor's Mansion, and you know very well what our attitude towards the water thieves is. You think you're pleading for your brother, but everyone thinks that the water thief doesn't have to be killed! Who doesn't have a family and six relatives, who doesn't have a family and friends? You said that as soon as this opening is opened, how will you manage the affairs behind the restoration of the Governor's Mansion? We're determined to get rid of the water thieves now, and we're going to get rid of the bandits in the future! When the time comes, some people say that they are relatives of those who are who and who are within generations, and we should not touch them! What did we say then? We can't break the rules we set ourselves! ”

Although Wei Ze wanted to be appeased by gentle words at first, he himself became more and more angry the more he talked. Liang Changtai made Wei Ze feel too uninteresting, and at this time, he actually came to ask Wei Ze for pardon. Pardon is first of all forgivable reasons for some people, and Liang Changtai's younger brother has no reason to forgive at all. The only thing that is possible to impress Wei Ze is that he colded everyone's hearts after offending Liang Changtai. But at this difficult start, the comrades have made up their minds to control Guangdong as quickly as possible. At the meeting of the Governor's Mansion to Restore the Governor's Mansion, Wei Ze personally told everyone the purpose and effect of using the Thunder Method, and he also received everyone's full recognition and support. If Wei Ze was afraid of offending people at this time and spared Liang Changtai's younger brother, it would only chill the hearts of the brothers who were loyal to Wei Ze and the cause of fighting the world. Compared with the two, even if Wei Ze asked Liang Changtai to get out, he would not let Liang Changtai's younger brother go.

Liang Changtai showed no signs of being stubborn to the end, and after listening to Wei Ze's firm attitude, he just lowered his head and wiped his tears. Seeing this, Wei Ze couldn't help but soften his heart a little, after all, Liang Changtai has been following Wei Ze for three years, except for the old brother in the Yongan era, Liang Changtai is a very senior brother.

Sighing, Wei Ze patted Liang Changtai on the shoulder, "Brother Liang, I personally sympathize with your current situation. I'll give you some money, and you can buy a good coffin for your brother. This brother, let me also help you do something. In addition, you can rest assured that your brother's affairs have nothing to do with you, and the organization will never put you in a separate book. As an artillery expert, you have a lot to do in the future! Now that this matter has come out, let's admit it! ”

Liang Changtai saw Wei Ze's firm attitude and knew that he would not be implicated, so he could only admit it. Although he also tried to refuse a sum of money given to him by Wei Ze, seeing Wei Ze's sincere attitude, Liang Changtai finally accepted Wei Ze's gift.

Seeing Liang Changtai away, Wei Ze invited Luo Xuan to come in. Luo Outline wanted to know the result in his heart, but since Wei Changrong had deliberately explained that he should not do much, Luo Outline also held back his curiosity. There was also a lot of information on Luo Outline during his visit to Hong Kong, especially related to the United Kingdom. After chatting for a while about the military situation in Hong Kong, Luo asked Wei Ze, "Governor, I have seen the exercises of the British soldiers, and they are very unusual. ”

Wei Ze is of course very clear about this issue, and it is of course extraordinary that the British can become an empire on which the sun never sets. But Weeser was not afraid of the British at all, at this time the world's ocean-going level was very poor, Britain did not have much investment capacity in China at all, as long as China engaged in industrialization, even at the level of the very rudimentary level of the second industrial revolution, the British in the Far East could only be called an important force, not a dominant force.

After listening to Luo's report, Wei Ze said: "Chief of Staff Luo, once Guangdong arrives and the naval division is completed, I want you to lead your troops to take Qiongzhou Island." ”

"What is there to fight on Qiongzhou Island?" Luo Xuan was quite surprised. Judging from Wei Ze's attitude, he seems to care very much about such a ghost place as Qiongzhou Island.

Qiongzhou Island is the Hainan Island of New China, and Wei Ze naturally cares very, very much about this place. "There are coconuts on Qiongzhou Island, and you can also grow rubber! This is very important stuff. ”

"Coconut? Banana? Luo Xuan asked strangely.

Wei Ze first wrote down the two nouns he said, and after letting Luo read it, he made a simple explanation. The coconut is very important to Wei Ze, the palm hair of the coconut can be used to make zuò cables, the meat can be squeezed for oil, the zuò can be made into zuò coconut, the juice can be drunk, and the shell can be used as buttons. The waste material after making the buttons can also be used to burn very high-grade activated charcoal, and in this era of black medicine, the military significance of high-quality charcoal cannot be overestimated.

As for rubber, although Luo Xuan didn't know that there was such a thing, Wei Ze, who was engaged in shipbuilding, couldn't understand the usefulness of rubber. Historically, rubber trees were transplanted smoothly in Hainan and Guangxi, as well as in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. Not to mention the role of rubber in industry, the two things of new wheels and rubber-soled liberation shoes alone can comprehensively enhance the combat effectiveness of Weize troops.

Wearing straw sandals or cloth shoes, a 50-mile march in a day requires a lot of time to take care of your shoes. After wearing rubber-soled military boots, after an easy march of sixty miles a day, as soon as the shoes were taken off, the soldiers were able to eat and sleep. Now Weese's troops marched fifty miles a day, and needed at least half an hour to take care of straw sandals. Add to that the rotation of multiple pairs of straw sandals, and the time spent can reach an hour a day.

The troops had to rest for eight hours a day, that is, four hours. There are twelve hours in a day, and after this time, there are eight hours left, and one of these eight hours belongs to the time of eating, drinking, and Lazar. In times of war, there are at most seven hours of a day that can really be used for combat and combat rest. If the straw sandals could be replaced with rubber-soled shoes, Wei Ze's troops would have an extra hour of time every day than the other Chinese ** forces on the opposite side. The significance of this does not need to be discussed.

Coconut and rubber are both dual-use products, so there is absolutely no need to worry about sales. The only trouble is that it takes at least seven years for rubber trees to be planted and ready to be harvested, so Wei Ze also made a plan for himself, if he started the Northern Expedition, the latest bottom line would be when he harvested rubber for the first time and began to produce rubber-soled shoes in large quantities.

As for the problem of rubber planting, thanks to the blessing of CCTV's science and education channel, Wei Ze has watched a popular science program, probably talking about Yunnan is the main producing area of rubber in China, in recent years, because the price of rubber is good, many people in order to pursue immediate interests, at will deepen the stimulant, add knives and cuts, increase cutting lines, waterline rubber tapping...... These wrong rubber tapping methods, so that a rubber tree that could have been cut for more than 30 years, the economic life span is shortened to more than ten years, in the long run, it will also cause great losses to the industry exhibition, so how to change these wrong methods, what measures can make the rubber tree more glue, out of high-quality glue? After watching this kind of show, Wei Ze also gained a lot of meaningful knowledge from memory.

Weeser has been in contact with officials and businessmen in the UK, France and the US about buying and selling imported rubber seeds. At this time, the world's rubber resources are in South America, whether it is the United States, or Europe, they learned that Wei Ze intends to engage in rubber cultivation in southern China, although they are a little vigilant, but they are still happy to see it. If Weizer can really introduce success, it will be a good thing to break the monopoly of rubber in South American countries. They also expressed their support for Weese.

Luo didn't think about it so much, and he didn't understand the international trade and resource allocation behind the rubber tree. Coconut and rubber were all too unfamiliar to him, but since Wei Ze said so, it proved that Wei Ze was determined to seize Qiongzhou. Then Luo Xuan naturally has more confidence in his position as a sailor, and he will not worry about fighting in the future.

After determining the direction of the future, Luo Xuan resigned, and he had to rush back to Wuzhou, where there was too much official business to deal with. When he left the city, he saw several heads pickled in lime hanging at the gate of the city, which was very close to the port, and the announcement clearly stated that these people were the thieves who had plundered merchant ships on the Pearl River not long ago.

It was determined that Wei Ze finally executed Liang Changtai's younger brother, and although Luo Xuan had some sympathy for Liang Changtai in his heart, he couldn't help but have a rather pleasant feeling.

The fleet went upstream, but I saw that the cargo ships on the river were basically flying the flag of the Water Transport Administration. He was born in a reckless background, and now he is finally able to formulate the order on the Pearl River, which makes Luo Xuan very satisfied.

When the fleet arrived in Wuzhou, it was not only the political commissar Shen Xin who rushed to greet him, but also a few guys with braids. Shen Xin introduced to Luo Xuan: "These are the leaders of the militia in Wuzhou City, and we are discussing with them the future path of the militia at this time. I have to come with Chief of Staff Luo! ”

Luo Xuan glanced around the group with a sharp gaze before he smiled: "Go!" Go to the command and speak! ”
