Chapter 132: Attack the Philippines?
In particular, Kou Guo asked Sun many times about providing weapons and funds, Li Yang knew that Kou Guo's heart of the Qing Dynasty would not die, and he had long hoped that the Qing Dynasty would be destroyed as soon as possible, and then pry more territory and interests in the Qing Dynasty. Mr. Sun Wen also knew what Kou Guo thought, but without Kou Guo's support, it was difficult to launch an uprising, and he knew that there was no way to use it.
In the uprising, Li Yang also found a lot of problems, but because he had no command at all, he was also helpless about it. Seeing that so many intellectual youths were sacrificed in every uprising, Li Yang was very heartbroken.
The Qing Dynasty has long been troubled by internal and external troubles, with the Kou Kingdom in the east eyeing Shandong and the three eastern provinces, the Rakshasa Kingdom in the northwest coveting Xinjiang, Outer Mongolia, and the three eastern provinces for a long time, and the leased land and right-of-way ..... of Western countries in the interior.
But such a crumbling Qing Dynasty could not be overthrown by a few revolutions. Thinking of this, Li Yang couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
"Commander-in-Chief Sun, in fact, there are many benefits to attacking the Philippines." Li Yang looked at Sun Hao and said.
"Oh, what's the benefit?" Sun Hao asked with a smile.
"First, conquering the Philippines can save countless Chinese compatriots living under oppression, and can also win countless prestige, and at the same time seize the gold mines of Luzon. Second, after seizing the Philippines, the Philippines can be used as a bridgehead for attacking Taiwan and attacking the Qing Dynasty. ”
After Sun Hao heard this, he not only nodded with a smile at Li Yang, but this guy still had some military opinions.
"Brother Li, you should have other purposes for persuading this commander to attack the Philippines, right? Could it be that your uncle Yang family is facing a threat from the Mi army or local forces? ”
After Li Yang heard Sun Hao see through his thoughts, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked, but the environment that often wandered between life and death prompted Li Yang's mind to calm down immediately.
"Commander-in-Chief Sun is right, I overheard my uncle Yang Dingtian discussing this matter with my mother, and I hope that my father will go to help. However, with the strength of our Li family and the Yang family, if we want to fight a decisive battle with the local Sultan Moro Country, we are definitely not the opponent of the Dan Moro Country. ”
In the past two years, Sun Hao also knows the history of the Philippines through the knowledge of history, and after the occupation of the Philippines, the United States did not carry out a major purge of local strength, but only guided the local forces to operate according to their own models. In this era, the Philippines not only had local indigenous forces, but also some Western religious forces that immigrated early, and the Sultan Moro was only one of them.
The Sultan Moro Kingdom is not to be feared by Sun Hao at all, but it seems a bit hasty to attack the Philippines on a large scale just for the sake of a mere Yang family. Taking the Philippines is certainly a good thing, but with the size of its current army, it is obviously a bit difficult to control these territories.
As for the rice country, Sun Hao didn't take the rice country in his eyes at all, whether it was the navy or the army, Sun Hao didn't regard them as strong opponents. His opponent should be the United Kingdom, the great powers, Germany, and the Rakshasa country, as long as this newly rising country is strangled in the cradle.
The benefits of taking the Philippines are self-evident, but the matter is big, and you must ask the Chief of Staff Shen Jun, that guy's head is much more flexible than his own, and he will decide whether to attack the Philippines after asking for his opinion.
Then, the two talked for a while, and Sun Hao also learned more about the Western world, and felt that Li Yang was very important to him.
And Li Yang also admires Sun Hao even more, he has his own unique insights and foresight on the big men of this century and the future direction of the century, it seems that he is indeed not with the wrong person, with such outstanding insight and vision, he cannot achieve a great cause unless there is an accident.
"Commander-in-chief, my sister Li Ruolan has a strong sense of independence since she was a child, and her personality is a little spicy, and I hope that Commander-in-Chief Sun will be more tolerant in the future." Li Yang said worriedly, his sister's personality has been like this since she was a child, her mother can control her in the family, and everyone else is powerless, such a woman marries Sun Hao, who is the dragon and phoenix among the people, and she is still a little worried that Sun Hao can't stand her sister's character.
After Sun Hao heard Li Yang's words, he said with a smile: "Brother Li, please rest assured, everyone has his strengths and weaknesses, we can't just stare at his shortcomings, but also balance his advantages." "As a person in later generations, what kind of people Sun Hao has never seen, and those of the second and third generations in later generations are much more arrogant than Li Ruolan.
When Li Yang heard Sun Hao say this, he was a little relieved, he and his father worked in the Huaxia Army, and everyone was often unhappy because of his sister's affairs, which would be very troublesome.
Li Yang also knew in his heart that Sun Hao currently wanted to take root in Nanyang as soon as possible and stabilize the territory, and he needed the support of his family, especially money and business support. Otherwise, Sun Hao would not have agreed to the marriage.
The two talked about some other issues before returning to Li Yang's house.
In the end, Sun Hao did not agree to Li Yang's march into the Philippines, but only said that this matter must be discussed with his officers.
When the two returned home, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, and they saw that Shen Jun, Li Biao, Dongfang Hong, Yang Rong and others were still discussing something in the living room, and there was a burst of laughter from time to time.
Li Yang didn't go to the living room, Sun Hao knew that he had to go to the living room, and the matter was not over yet!
Sun Hao walked into the door of the living room, Li Biao and Yang Rong got up to greet each other with a smile, especially Yang Rong's gaze, just like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
Dongfang Hong took a sip of tea, and then said with a smile: "Commander-in-Chief Sun, two more days will be a good day, it is appropriate to get married, plus my niece Li Ruolan also worships the commander-in-chief, after we discussed with the elders, we decided to do the marriage first." ”
After Sun Hao heard Dongfang Hong's words, he felt bitter in his heart, although Li Ruolan is not the kind of woman who looks like a fairy, but she can be regarded as one in a thousand, the key is that she is too young, listening to Dongfang Hong, she is only 17 years old, such a girl is just a high school student in the next generation. Although he is not a saint and gentleman, the girl in her teens is really a little bit unable to do it, and now she wants to marry her.
Ay! It's not forced by form, and I don't want to spoil Li Ruolan so early.
The current development of Fuming City is very unhealthy, everything is self-produced and self-sufficient, and it is completely the model of the Dahe Agricultural Era, which is definitely not good. If a country wants to develop healthily, it must carry out reforms.
Now the most important thing is to get the commercial support of the Li family, the Dongfang family, and the Yang family on Davao Island, and they have the financial and commercial support of their three families in Nanyang, and their strength will definitely go to the next level.
