What is the biggest evil consequence of the official-oriented thinking?

It's not that officials protect each other, it's not class solidification, but mutual blame, which is something that can be concluded in minutes, just because no one is willing to take responsibility, it is normal to drag it out for three or five years.

If it is a matter involving "foreign adults", in the absence of unexpected factors, it is normal to drag on for thirty or fifty years, intercepting illegal immigrants may be a sentence, or even a normal move to follow the laws of the Qing Dynasty, but injuring the employees of the Pacific Company is by no means what the Qing officials want to see, although the boss of the Pacific Company is Chinese, but Li Mu has joined the American nationality, so it is a gap with the pure Chinese, which sounds a little hurtful, but it is a fact, even if it is a black person at the bottom of society in the United States, In the Qing Kingdom, he was also a foreigner, although for a period of time, blacks had another name called "Kunlun Nu".

In fact, it's normal, Kunlun slaves are slaves, not even servants, when the national strength is strong, all the people are ruined, and when the national strength is not strong, you have to honestly pretend to be a grandson, if you don't want to pretend, people will beat you as a grandson.

Although Li Mu does not want to be powerful in front of his father and fellow villagers, but at this time, Li Mu can not retreat, the Qing officials in the history books grovel in the face of the foreign people, then they also have to divide people, not all foreigners are "foreign people", when Japan annexed the Ryukyus, the Ryukyu officials in the Qing country had no way to ask for help, and finally committed suicide at the door of the prime minister's yamen, the Ryukyuan people are also foreigners, but because there is no strong motherland, so they can only endure humiliation.

In the United States, Li Mu regards himself as the spokesperson of the Chinese, all the Chinese in the United States have been wronged, Li Mu will seek justice for them, and the same is true in the Qing State, the officials of the Qing State can not pay attention to the Chinese in the Qing State, but Li Mu, an outsider, attaches importance to it, and it is an unexpected attention of the Qing government.

"Give the Prime Minister Yamen an ultimatum that the investigation can be let go first, but the detainees must be released immediately, and the Prime Minister Yamen must guarantee that no similar incidents will occur in the future." Li Mu has priorities in doing things, and it is impossible to use troops in winter anyway, so the Qing government is willing to delay and save the living first.

"There are few people alive anymore, yesterday the Qing army at the border crossing killed some of the detained immigrants, just near the border line, this is a demonstration to us, but also to warn the Qing people who want to emigrate, I think it is necessary for us to launch an action, at least to get rid of the Qing troops set up on the other side of the border, so as not to endanger the migration to Vladivostok." Chen Guofang's thinking is more radical, of course, it is also because he was stimulated by the Qing border guards, under normal circumstances, Chen Guofang is still relatively stable.

Politicians, do things must be done safely, it is impossible to be more radical than Li Mu, an arms dealer, maybe the behavior of the Qing army makes Chen Guofang unacceptable, but in Li Mu's view, it is normal, the Qing government has always been so cruel to disobedient Chinese, when entering the customs, there were three massacres in Jiading on the eighth day of Yangzhou, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom killed tens of millions of people, and now dozens of people have been executed.

It's just basic.

Of course, normal is normal, acceptance is acceptance, this kind of behavior of the Qing government, Li Mu is definitely unacceptable, so Li Mu's thoughts are similar to Chen Guofang's.

"I've telegraphed Leo to send some veterans to Vladivostok, and even if it is impossible to start a full-scale war, we must solve this problem first." It is indeed not easy to start a war in winter, but Li Mu is trapped by weather factors, and the Qing army will be trapped by weather factors.

It is an obvious fact that, according to Li Mu's understanding of the Qing army, the equipment level and logistics level of the Qing army are not even up to the level of the US army, let alone compared with the mercenaries of the Far East Company, this sounds very funny, after all, whether it is the US army or the Qing army, there is state support behind it, and it is said that the equipment level should be far better than that of the mercenaries.

But the actual situation is that the mercenaries with private support are far better than the mercenaries in terms of equipment level and logistics level, this is not an exaggeration, but an objective fact, the Qing army aside, the regular army of the United States is still using single-shot rifles, but the mercenaries of the Far East company have begun to use magazine rifles, and they are generally equipped with self-defense pistols, which are incomparable to the regular army.

Regarding military weapons, the standard weapons of the US military units are actually magazine-type rifles produced by the Springfield Arsenal, but the popularization of standard weapons is not an overnight thing, although the War Department has placed an order with the Springfield Arsenal, but to fully complete the reloading, it will definitely take time, the production capacity of the Springfield Arsenal is not weak, but the US War Department is not in the Springfield Arsenal priority supply sequence, anyway, these orders can't run, Li Mu is more willing to fight for those unstable orders, earn the money first.

Doesn't it sound a bit subversive of the three views, the US military industrial complex, actually does not put the orders of the US military units in the first order.

In fact, this is a normal situation, the supply of US military units has been shady for a long time, Li Mu is not a pioneer, the beard first started by the military industry, can it be said that the products of the beard are better than the quality of the products of those old military factories in the United States?

Not at all, it's because the relationship between the beard is harder, so the beard can successfully ascend to the top.

Speaking of which, Li Mu also has to thank these shady scenes, otherwise Li Mu would not have succeeded in acquiring Springfield, Colt, and Winchester.

"That's good, tell Leo that if you want the Prime Minister's Yamen to hand over people, not only the murderer who shot the gun, but also to hand over those who have been detained, tell the Prime Minister Yamen not to try to fool around, we have a roster here, those people have become American citizens, if they disappear, it will cause very serious consequences." Li Mu is ignoring and has to stir up three points, not to mention that he is unreasonable now, and he will definitely peel off a layer of skin from the Prime Minister's Yamen.

Regarding this "American nationality", in fact, it is all nonsense, and it is necessary to go through the procedure to join the American nationality, those immigrants have not yet arrived in Vladivostok, and it is impossible to go through the procedure, so Li Mu put it bluntly, it is just touching porcelain, and everyone has been executed, and the Qing State will definitely not be able to hand it over, and now it is just a matter of taking advantage of the topic.

Facts have proved that Yan Shun is more shameless than Li Mu imagined, the day after the incident, Yan Shun submitted a letter of protest to the Prime Minister Yamen, after which Yan Shun no longer showed up, all negotiations were handled by the US ambassador to the Qing State, Yan Shun himself stayed in the Ryukyus for remote control, and did not give the Qing government any chance.

It's really not okay, don't imagine the Qing government too stupid, ordinary people will be angry and blood splashed five steps when they are in a hurry, and the Son of Heaven is even more angry, the Qing government is very docile in front of Western countries on weekdays, but there are a lot of cautions behind the scenes, and the Qing government is indulged behind the Gengzi fist chaos, otherwise if the Qing government does not allow it, do those "big brothers" really have such a strong demagogic power?

It's really that strong, it's a long time ago, and it's still a mess.

Don't look at Yan Shun and the people of the Pacific Company now enjoy extralegal privileges in the Qing State, but that is all on the premise that there is no crisis to the rule of the Qing government, otherwise the Qing government will not be so easy to speak, Guangxu may be a soft persimmon, the Queen Mother and her old man are definitely not, if Yan Shun shows hostility towards the Qing State, then even if the Qing State offends the US government, it will secretly get rid of Yan Shun, at most it will be involved with the United States, and finally lose some money, which is a trivial matter compared with the country.

In Yan Shun's first representation to the Prime Minister's Yamen, he demanded that the Prime Minister's Yamen immediately release the new immigrants who had been detained, and this issue was very crucial, not only related to the credibility of the Pacific Company among the Chinese, but also related to the status of the Chinese in Vladivostok.

Again, the rulers of the Qing Empire were more indifferent to ordinary Chinese than Li Mu imagined.

Before Yan Shun negotiated with the Prime Minister's Yamen, the Prime Minister's Yamen did not know what was going on, and of course it was impossible to reply, although the Prime Minister's Yamen did not mean to be contemptuous, and after learning about the matter, he immediately sent someone to investigate, but after all, it still took time, that is, this time, completely buried the last trace of Li Mu's patience.

Well, Li Mu was originally deliberately causing trouble, and he was impatient at all.

At the end of January, before the Qing Lunar New Year, a commando team of 120 people arrived in Vladivostok, led by Li Mu, a long-known veteran instructor of the Far Eastern Company.

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, hard work." Although Li Mu is not a soldier, when he saw Jimmy, he still gave Jimmy a military salute at will, no other meaning, just handy, and no one asked Li Mu not to salute, or the military salute must be standard, Li Mu has dealt with the military in the United States a lot, Will, Yan Hu, Sherman, are all senior officers.

"Mr. Ream, Jimmy, a senior instructor at the Far East Company, reports to you." Jimmy's military salute is much more formal, and he doesn't get carried away because he wears the rank of lieutenant colonel, and in front of the boss, he still abides by the rules, which is more in line with Jimmy's identity.

In Luzon, Jimmy's military rank was Lieutenant Colonel, but that Lieutenant Colonel was not recognized by the War Department, and within the Far East Company, Jimmy's rank was still a senior instructor, which was determined only after he was responsible for training the Servant Army for the French.

In the Far Eastern Company, there is a set of internal promotion regulations, and the senior instructor does not participate in the management of the company, but at the executive level, the senior instructor is already equivalent to the person in charge of the operation, so this time the removal of the border troops of the Qing State is Jimmy in charge.

"Relax Jimmy, it's not a difficult task, it should be easy for you, and bad weather should be harder to deal with relative to your enemies." Li Mu is very confident in the mercenaries of the Far East Company, after the independence of Luzon, the Far East Company carried out a large-scale layoff, and the mercenaries who are still in the Far East Company are basically veterans, either they are superb in archery, or they are good at hand-to-hand combat, or they are good at explosives, etc., anyway, the Far East Company does not raise idlers, and now they can still stay in the mercenaries of the employee company, even if they join the US Army, at least they can mix with a sergeant major, don't underestimate the sergeant major, for the army, the sergeant major is more important than the officer.

A very simple comparison, officers can be trained, but the sergeant major can not be trained, only experienced veterans on the battlefield can serve as the sergeant major, popularly speaking, it is the king of soldiers, officers can be assigned by superiors, but the sergeant major is respected by the soldiers, in general, the soldiers believe in the sergeant major, rather than the officer, and the officer will also ask the sergeant major for advice when considering the combat plan.

Jimmy is a senior instructor, fought with the Spaniards in Cuba, and later returned to the United States with Will to join the First Cavalry Division, whether it is experience or qualifications, it is the best choice, in the process of Luzon independence, Jimmy performed well, and then was transferred to Annam to train the servant army for the French, if not with the Qing State, Jimmy has already been qualified to retire, but Jimmy will never miss the war against the Qing State, as a descendant of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Jimmy has been waiting for this day.

"It's okay Reem, the jungles of South America are harder than the ice and snow in Vladivostok, don't worry about us, we're all ready." Jimmy is not intimidated by the weather, and the Far East Company is also prepared, so there is nothing to worry about.

If the best point of the nineteenth century is that to a certain extent, the materials are absolutely abundant, such as cold equipment, which is by no means lacking in the Far East, and the Far East company is even very luxurious, even if it is an ordinary soldier, the cold equipment used in the twenty-first century is a luxury.

Extravagant, indeed extravagant, frostbite cream made of seal oil, hats and clothes made of mink, some even use bear skin for mattresses, the American military units of the twenty-first century can only use morphine to save their lives, and what did the mercenaries of the nineteenth century use? It's scary to say, many people buy wild ginseng, not the kind of understory ginseng that is farmed, it is a real wild ginseng, and the Far Eastern Company is not so wealthy, which is one of the benefits of mercenaries.

It is indeed welfare, as part of the Horse Group, it is easy for the Far East Company to get material replenishment in the Far East, mink, bear skin or something are luxury goods in the 21st century, but in the 19th century, these things are really not worth anything, a complete high-quality bear skin is not even 30 dollars, 50 years of wild ginseng is only 50 dollars, how much is it worth in the 21st century?

You can't find it at all, priceless!

Of course, this is not a mercenary deliberately to lower the price, many things are bought from the Chinese in the Qing country, and they sell things to the Qing government cheaper.

"Very good Jimmy, take a rest and set off tomorrow, my request is very simple, clean up all the outposts on the border of the Qing Kingdom, and leave no traces." Li Mu was murderous, in fact, Li Mu preferred to send someone to the capital of the Qing Kingdom to behead the actual operation, but it was not suitable now.
