For the developing and growing Germany, the industrial equipment that Yang Xingguo wants can be easily taken out by Germany.

The transaction of more than one million taels is not big for a country, but it is not small. It only takes the nod of the official in charge of foreign trade, and this is more than business.

So, as soon as Wilhelm's telegram arrived at the German headquarters, the equipment of the ironworks, steel mills, and power plants began to be loaded on ships.

As for the gunpowder factory and weapons production line that Yang Xingguo wants, it is not a foreign trade official who can speak.

In addition, Wilhelm also said in the telegram that the Liaodong Army wanted to further deepen cooperation with Germany.

As soon as the telegram was received, the news was sent to the German General Staff.

In the case of the urgent need to open the Chinese market, and to find an ally in the Far East.

The German General Staff unanimously agreed that the appearance of the Liaodong Army out of thin air was likely to be an opportunity for German forces to break into the Far East.

Of course, there are also people who are not optimistic about the local power of the Liaodong Army.

For a country, the territory controlled by the Liaodong Army is small, the population under control is small, and the number of troops is not large, only tens of thousands. More importantly, the Liaodong Army had no war potential.

However, with the Liaodong Army's successive defeats of the Russians and the defeat of the Japanese, after being put in front of the German staff little by little by Wilhelm, more and more people began to be interested in the Liaodong Army, and even the Kaiser became interested in this Liaodong Army, which was surviving in the cracks and growing and growing.

"Your Majesty, I think that we in Germany can accede to the request of the Liaodong Army and further deepen cooperation with the Liaodong Army......," the deputy chief of staff of the General Staff proposed with a serious face to the Kaiser.

Kaiser Wilhelm II thought for a moment and asked, "Tell me your reasons......"

The deputy chief of staff in charge of intelligence replied directly: "I believe that in-depth cooperation with the Liaodong Army will bring only benefits to Germany, and there will be no harm......

"Let's not care whether this Liaodong Army has the strength to become an ally of Germany. Let's just say that this transaction, as long as the empire agrees, it can bring hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the empire. “

"This is definitely a lot of money for Germany in the midst of discovery......"

"Secondly. Liaodong, China, controlled by the Liaodong Army, had a large amount of iron ore and coal mines that Germany desperately needed. As long as the cooperation is completed, Germany will have access to a steady stream of iron ore and coal at a very low price. “

"Finally, there was another reason: the Japanese were fighting the Russians in Liaodong, China, and the Liaodong Army had experience fighting both armies. In my opinion, this is a great opportunity for us to get acquainted with the combat effectiveness of the Russian and Japanese armies. As long as we send people into the Liaodong Army. to know everything we want to know......"

Seeing that the others did not speak after the deputy chief of staff finished speaking, Wilhelm II immediately decided: "Since everyone has no opinion, then this matter will be done." A colonel officer from the General Staff will be sent to the Far East to get a deeper understanding of the Liaodong Army, and then decide whether the other side is suitable for us as an ally of Germany......"

"As for the equipment and production line that the Liaodong Army wants, as long as the price is right, give it all to him......"

When Kaiser Wilhelm II's decision was sent to Yang Xingguo, Yang Xingguo was not at the headquarters.

After several days of preparation, the first batch of teachers at the Liaodong Military Academy headed by Li Zhilong. is sitting in a tent with a serious face to accept Yang Xingguo's words......

"You are all officers from my Liaodong Army, and there are even people who have studied abroad, in a word, you are all the treasures of my Liaodong Army......" Yang Xingguo's opening remarks made the dozen or so people in front of him very useful, and also made their nervousness and seriousness relax a lot invisibly.

At this time, Yang Xingguo continued: "The reason why I call you all these treasures together is because I want you to make a cameo appearance as a teacher and give me the military knowledge you have learned to other officers of the Liaodong Army......

"Of course. The whole training is only three months, and you have studied for at least three years in the military school. It is absolutely impossible to teach everyone all the military knowledge in the stomach. ”

"So. In the next three months, all you need to hand over to you is some basic knowledge of military affairs......"

"For example, knowing the map, drawing the map, analyzing the battle situation, some classic battles and tactics......"

Li Zhilong thought for a moment and replied, "Commander." Three months should be enough to teach them only these most basic military knowledge. ”

Yang Xingguo nodded and replied: "You can't eat a big fat man in one bite, we have to eat one bite at a time." Coupled with the current situation in Liaodong, our officers are not allowed to study for too long......"

"My idea is to first conduct three-month rotation training for all officers at and above the company level in the whole army, so that they can know some of the most basic military knowledge, so that they will not be unclear about even some of the most basic military knowledge when they command troops to fight in the future."

"When the military school is on the right track, we will have a longer rest time. I'll also bring them closer to the military academy for longer rotations. When the time comes, including you, you will have to go to the military academy for rotation training! “

"Ah...... We're going to train in rotation too......" Li Zhilong couldn't help but exclaim.

"Of course......" Yang Xingguo replied without thinking.

"With the advent of all kinds of new weapons, the mode of warfare and the way of warfare will also change dramatically."

"The military knowledge you have learned before will fall behind when the time comes. Therefore, as weapons are constantly updated, so should our warfare training. When the time comes, I will hire some instructors and teachers from abroad to come over and join the military academy to teach you the most advanced military theories from abroad, and we will make progress together......"

"Yes, Commander......" Li Zhilong's eyes lit up and he replied excitedly.

At this time, Yang Xingguo continued: "Of course, let you come to the military academy as a part-time teacher, and I won't let you work in vain......"

"No matter what you do, in the few months you have been in the military academy, your military salary has been doubled."

"During the entire military academy, I was the principal, and I will pay attention to and evaluate you at any time. As long as you pass the assessment, except for Li Zhilong, all of you will be promoted to the next level. “

"Okay, that's all I have to say, we'll start classes tomorrow......"

After training more than a dozen instructors, Yang Xingguo left the tent and handed over a dozen instructors to Sun Liechen.

Because, just now, his personal guard had opened the tent door curtain more than once. If nothing else, the guards must have been in a hurry to find themselves.

Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the tent, the guard reported: "Commander...... The deputy commander just sent someone to look for you, and the Germans who came a few days ago are here again today, and now they are waiting for you at the headquarters, as if they are in a hurry. “

"William came back so soon, there must be a result...... Yang Xingguo's eyes lit up and he said.

You know, for a few days, Yang Xingguo was more anxious about Germany's reply than anyone else.

Because, whether the Liaodong Army can have an industrial foundation and accumulate war potential little by little depends to a large extent on this transaction.

Fortunately for Yang Xingqing, as soon as he entered the headquarters, as soon as he saw William, William gave himself a very warm hug with a smile on his face.

"Became a ......" Yang Xingguo's face was happy, and for the first time, he did not feel disgusted by William's warm hug, and gave a very enthusiastic response.

With Yang Xingguo's understanding of William, if the deal had not been successful, he would never have been smiling and so enthusiastic.
