Chapter 112: Temporary Victory (6)
"Capitalism?"
"Well, that's the case, what did Xiucai Gong think?"
"Well, capitalism... Capital, the capital of military capital, capital, capital, combined into capital..."Zhu Jiao pondered something with his chin pinched, and ignored the old and young masters of the landlord's family who passed in front of him.
"Hey! It's a newcomer again! In the distance, seeing these poor people tied up by straw ropes, those drunken free miners smiled and pounced on them, eating, sleeping and beating the baby, the three great joys of life, the baby here is the white and tender newcomer whose skin has not been worn out by rags and has no calluses on his hands and feet!
A miner kicked an old man who was wailing and swallowing, and succeeded in angering everyone--- everyone who was strung with rope.
There are many people who are strung with strong makeup, but how can they move when they are tied up with five flowers? What's more, there are soldiers who watch over them, and they can only stare at the living ghosts like black charcoal who pounce on them with hatred.
With a "snap" punch, the nose bone of a strong man was shattered, and the whole person fell, and even a large family fell to the ground, and the nosebleed seeped into the soil on the ground, staining the ground red.
"Almost." Seeing that the group of people who continued to fight would be dead and wounded, they ran in vain, and a soldier shouted with the barrel of his gun.
"Yes, yes, we'll be measured," a jail-like man said with a grin, gesturing to stop.
"Phew!"
The next day, a mining steam engine was dragged by a flatbed wagon to a flat clearing where coal had just been mined, and the whole thing was carried onto a short track; When the mine is dug in the future, it can be used for drainage--- the price of coal on the coal mine is about the same, and it is quite cost-effective to protect the coal mine. This was followed by a platoon of new troops, who were stationed in the enclosure where the nearby landlords were located, intending to completely cordon off the entire perimeter of the mining area.
…………
After the defeat of the Qing army, they withdrew all the way from Jiangdu County, and swept through Gaoyou like a whirlwind and clouds, so that they could gain a foothold in the Baoying area.
In the vicinity of this county seat, hundreds of miles away from Yangzhou, the Qing army, which had retreated all the way, finally collected its troops, re-established the defensive line, and controlled the blockage of the channel with shipwrecks and cannons to prevent the Zheng army from counterattacking along the canal. Liu Jian survived again in the chaos of the army, and also gathered a lot of troops with his own soldiers, not only did he not lose his head, but he also vaguely heard the limelight of raising the flag from Ao Bai's mouth.
As for why it was said from Aobai, not from the mouth of coach Zhuo Butai, the reason is not that Zhuo Butai doesn't like him, but because --- Zhuo Butai is dead.
Looking at the corpse that kept spewing out the stench and was wrapped in a white cloth, Ao Bai felt very embarrassed in his heart, he knew very well that if he had full command of this battle, he would not be beaten like this, even if he let those people break through, he would be able to take the empty Yangzhou City. As a result, his younger brother is really a reckless man!
With a heavy sigh, Ao Bai decided to send a messenger to report north. As soon as you can't contain the fire in the paper, it's not good to say nothing by yourself, and the court at this time is not twenty years ago, and now that Zhuo Butai is dead, how many people can replace him? There are people in the Han army banner who can be in command, but this is not a simple military problem, but a serious political problem! If the Han Chinese were to be the commander-in-chief and lead the Eight Banners of Manchuria, wouldn't that mean that the foundation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was useless? (Han Eight Banners: MMP Manchu people think I'm Han people, Han people think I'm Manchurian, and I don't like each other)
Therefore, Ao Bai suddenly discovered that after the death of his younger brother, he could also keep asking for money and food like Wu Sangui did before?
"Master," the servant beside him came over, "these days, the servant has found some signs of abnormality in the army. The other battalions regrouped after the collapse, and they were all three or four, but the one surnamed Liu was left with seven or eight, and if you look carefully at the ranks of his own soldiers, it seems that there is no shortcoming, and there are some additions. ”
After thinking about the joints of those things in the north, and secretly calming down, Ao Bai decided to meet the luck king under him. "Then let him come and meet me, this defeated battle is quite good!"
Soon, Liu Outline walked in. "I've seen my lord."
"Well, get up. Give him a maza. I heard that you, a general, can't fight when you win a battle, but you can do it when you lose, and after a few failures, your soldiers brought back the most. ”
Liu Outline was a little flustered, and forced out a sentence in a hurry: "If you don't win, you will lose first..."
But this sentence seemed to open the door to Aobai, he had a flash of inspiration, clapped his hands vigorously and said: "What you said is good, if you don't win, you must first defeat before you can be invincible!" ”
……
Less than 10 days after the new cabinet headed by Yang Zai was released, the cabinet, which is co-located with the Burmese Diplomatic Envoy Department, sent an official letter to the chief officials of the prefectures, prefectures and counties, asking them to arrive in Awa by the end of May to participate in the "collective study of senior cadres." This was naturally Zhu Youlang's idea, and in the face of the fact that the Northern Expedition was too smooth, Zhu Youlang had to temporarily stop swallowing Yunnan. (Zhu Youlang always thought that it would take at least a few months to recover Yunnan Mansion, but as a result, an armed walk over to throw and run, which caused a huge burden on Zhu Youlang's weak cadre team)
At the beginning of May, just when Myanmar was gradually getting hot and Zhu Youlang gradually became an otaku, Gonzalez once again came to this "Chinese city in Myanmar".
Following the Ministry of Rites Attaché into the city gate, Gonzalez once again moved into the courtyard. But this time, Gonzalez was allowed to move freely in the city, and when he asked if he could see the Chinese king again, he got a white look that he didn't know what to do, "Your Majesty, where is there so much time to see you again and again?" Wait for the announcement! ”
Gonzalez thought about it, most of the land snakes in the East have this kind of arrogance, not to mention that the former Chinese emperor also has this qualification, in the West, this emperor once had the strength of the Turkish Sultan, and Turkey at this time is in its heyday!
Since he could wander around, Gonzalez naturally went to the market. According to the interpreter, this king attached great importance to commerce as much as the Dutch and Northern Italians, so there were shops that opened every day both inside and outside the city, and most of the goods that could be seen in China could also be seen here, perhaps these people came with the emperor--- of course, the number of shops and inventory was also much smaller, and it was not possible to make much money by transporting them back.
There were a lot more porcelain on the market than there were back then, and these magical utensils attracted Gonzalez's eyes firmly, and when he saw that the red-haired man couldn't put down the sample, the shopkeeper began to rip off customers.
Gonzalez waved his hand and said in simple Chinese that he wanted to get a six-fold discount.
"If you accept the price, I, I can buy such bowls, five hundred, no, a thousand."
Although this shopkeeper also sat up slowly from his buddy and fought in the business world for many years, he had never been exposed to the experience of how to fool international friends, and was bluffed by a few words of Chinese, so he had to lower the price. After all, this list is quite large, and the price quoted by myself is twice as high as that of the bulk ones on the market.
"Seventy percent." The shopkeeper stretched out seven fingers.
"No, it's sixty percent." Gonzalez insisted in stiff Chinese, and the interpreter held back a smile on the side. "This red-haired man, where can a coarse porcelain bowl be sold for a penny?"
The shopkeeper showed a helpless expression and nodded in recognition of the price. It is naturally impossible for a thousand porcelain bowls to be delivered here, and the time and place of delivery is also a place worth bargaining, and there are FOB prices and CIF prices in modern bulk trade, which is also the reason--- which determines who bears the losses during transportation.
