I thought that Hu Lin wanted everyone to come to consolidate personal rights and control more troops. Although your Pingshan army is strong, there are only a few people, and it will be up to the sky to control the capital Zhili, so do you want to count it again?
This is the case, everyone knows that you are still stationed in the capital, and you have a clear and secret relationship with the court. But at this time, everyone came over and got on your boat, so you didn't expand your control and went to learn what kind of school Zhang Zhidong and others did.
Anyone knows that this is a cost-effective thing, no matter how much money you have, you can be poorer if you spend it on a large amount of equipment. It is said that as long as you control and train the army as soon as possible, and then configure the weapons, then everyone will be at ease.
There was a buzz in the lobby, and they were all whispering to each other about Hu Lin's intentions, which was completely contrary to common sense, and he didn't play cards according to the routine, which was a decision that was completely contrary to the current situation.
I can't think about it, many people can't figure it out, they look at Hu Lin at the top, and sit there indifferently, as if waiting for everyone to discuss, and there is no intention of stopping it at all.
After hearing this, Li Hongzhang understood better, but he also thought that it was better to grasp the army first. After all, now facing the danger of invasion by various countries, only by making the military strong first can we compete with foreigners.
Even if the Pingshan Army has powerful weapons such as airplanes, cars, and machine guns, after all, there are few, the whole country is so big, and the overseas is so wide, it is impossible to count on these planes and your tens of thousands of Pingshan troops.
Liu Kunyi smiled at this time, and looked at Li Hongzhang with a smile, as if he had a deep meaning. "Lord Li, this General Hu Lin seems to agree with Zhang Zhidong's approach, what do you think?"
Even if Hu Lin was on his side, Liu Kunyi still spoke to Li Hongzhang so bluntly. Anyway, he is the governor of Liangjiang, and his main function is in trade, no matter how he is, it is said that Li Hongzhang was the first to negotiate with Hu Lin, and the Huai army who should take the most care of Li Hongzhang is.
But at this time, Hu Lin was not thinking about the army, and it seemed that he wanted to marginalize the meaning of controlling the imperial army here?
Li Hongzhang didn't understand the meaning of Liu Kun's words, but after negotiating with Hu Lin before, the condition was that he would treat everyone equally, so now Hu Lin hasn't talked about the army, so he doesn't have to worry, so he smiled and ignored Liu Kunyi.
But Chen Fenglou, the commander of the inscription battalion of the main force of the Huai Army in the hall, couldn't look at it a little, what kind of person is Li Hongzhang, since you have put down your body to help you, you still don't pay attention to his old man's thoughts.
"General Hu, I think that what kind of academy is useless for the time being, the main energy should be used on the new army, the soldiers need Pingshan's training and treatment, so that we will not be manipulated."
Chen Fenglou stood up and said in a loud voice, with a hint of grievances for Li Hongzhang. The surrounding officials were already curious, since someone had come forward, they wanted to see what Hu Lin meant.
Seeing that someone finally questioned it, Hu Lin no longer tested the patience of these people, these people came here on the basis of Li Hongzhang's face and some of his own strength, and he couldn't let them down.
At least make your intentions clear. "Are you Chen Fenglou? I know you have been in the army for decades, you have never been afraid to fight, and you are a hero who is not born and is afraid of death. Since you asked, I will tell you that there is my intention to do this, and I will tell you later, and you don't have to worry about colding your Huaijun. ”
Hu Lin knew what the Huai army was like at this time, the first day of the first few years basically consumed a large number of naval forces, and then this coalition army attacked the capital of Zhili, and one of the remaining main forces of the Huai army was also consumed by Nie Shicheng in Tianjin City.
It can be said that there are almost no main forces in the formation, and there are still one or two battalions left, and in the end it will be 10,000 or 20,000 to the sky, and we have to count the new troops that have been newly accepted in other regions in terms of appreciation.
In fact, the Huai Army is the army with the strongest combat effectiveness in this era, and the foreign wars are basically the navy and land forces of the Huai Army, but it is a pity that they fought very badly.
The Hunan army beside Liu Kunyi stood very firmly in the Liangjiang area, maintaining its strength with a posture of neutrality in which I did not participate. It also did not develop the strength of the Hunan army, within the range that the imperial court could tolerate.
But this also limited the strength of the Hunan army in Liu Kun's hands, and the Hunan army was originally developed in the hands of Zeng Guopan in Hunan.
So even now, decades later, the Hunan army has not improved much in terms of combat effectiveness. The Huai army, which was relatively small, was much stronger in combat, and some of the Hunan army was in the hands of Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang.
Hu Lin's vague answer made Chen Fenglou a little uncertain, and Liu Kunyi, who was also concerned about military affairs, didn't understand, although he has always adhered to the development of the army in a neutral manner, but now is an opportunity, don't care about the imperial court, the old man's heart is very bright, and it is obvious that the opportunity for development has arrived.
The representative Han army of this era, in fact, there is also a Chu army in Zuozhongtang, but it is in the Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi regions. It seems that Li Hongzhang did not reply to the news about him, and Hu Lin did not ask for the time being.
Hearing Chen Fenglou's faint questioning of Hu Lin, Li Hongzhang, who really kept smiling, still spoke. "Hu Lin, it's a good thing to open a school, but it's better to discuss it with the old man in Zhang Zhidong. Now that he is not coming, what is your purpose in bringing it up here? ”
"Master Li, you are all here today, and I would like to start with the first important thing. I think it's the most important, so if you think it's important, listen to me. ”
Hu Lin didn't answer Li Hongzhang's words, and said directly to the officials under the hall. "Education is the foundation, the military is secondary, the economy is continuous, and the people's livelihood is the sky. This is what I will do later, of course, everyone's future is at the forefront, and these need everyone, and I need the personnel on the Pingshan side to carry them out. As long as you can do it well, the first step is your benefits, and I, Hulin, have always looked at the results to judge success or failure. Of course, this is without violating common sense, and I hope everyone will work together in the future. ”
And Hu Lin naturally wanted to deal with the affairs of the army first, who doesn't know how bad the army of the imperial court is, there are millions of soldiers and horses in the country but they can't find a few strong soldiers, and the army that is more powerful like the Huai army is also exhausted in foreign wars.
Now that he has participated in the country's policy and can play a decision-making role, why hasn't Hulin hurried to improve the strength of the army?
Isn't there still the Pingshan Army, as long as the Pingshan Army is there, then, at least, the foreign enemy is unlikely to have a fundamental impact on the country. Maybe there will be some losses, but look at the big picture.
Even if Russia invaded and occupied territory in Hailanpao, even if Korea was pressed by Japan with a claw, even if Taiwan was ceded by Japan, even if France was involved in Vietnam's vassal state and intended Yunnan, even if Britain entered Tibet.
None of this is important, a country is not the court at all, not the rulers, but the people. Only when the people are enlightened will there be a complete country, and ignorant people will cause the country as a whole to weaken.
As long as there are wise and fleshy people, this country will never lose its territory, and I will spit it out for me, and I will have to give a generous gift.
Just like Japan, which went from the Dark Age to the world's second largest economy, was defeated many times during this period, and there was no money left. But why did it take only ten or twenty years to get up, and climb directly to the top of the world to bully the scumbag system of those so-called big countries.
Hu Lin knew from another time and space that Japan had fallen to rise several times, that is, people, all people under the rule. This is their foundation, and the rise of a beast-like nation is not because they have a clear grasp of the general direction.
Taking World War II as an example, although there is no army and it is still supervised by the US garrison, why can it directly climb to the second economic power in the world? If he is given the conditions for developing the military, the army will inevitably be the second in the world, and there seems to be no doubt. (To be continued.)
