Section 43 Mercenaries
Hei Niu agreed to follow Yang Chao, and Yang Chao asked him to tell the other soldiers that those who were willing to go with Yang Chao would go home within ten days, and then go to Jinan together. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
only said one request, no promises, but everything was in his heart, if this group of people really came desperately to follow Yang Chao, could he still leave these people behind in his life?
Bring a bunch of people to get rich? He's the best at this.
I have been staying in Qingdao and chatting with Captain Werner these days, he is still the captain of the Huayong Company, while Major Falkenhayn has been promoted to lieutenant colonel and returned to the German Ministry of Defense because of his military exploits in Beijing during the battle of the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Werner was not only not promoted, but was extremely distressed, because the Chinese soldiers began to flee again, trying to escape by all means, and he asked Yang Chao if he should go to arrest him, or ask the Chinese government for help, these were deserters.
Yang Chao persuaded him not to, there had just been a war, if it was provoking a diplomatic dispute, which was not conducive to Germany's interests in China, the governor would not agree, Captain Werner did report to the governor, and the governor did not agree, most of the soldiers in Huayong Company were actually outside the concession, after all, the Germans only occupied a very small circle of land along Jiaozhou Bay, with a population of only a few thousand, and it was impossible to recruit enough soldiers, and most of the soldiers were actually Shandong people outside the colonial range.
Therefore, if you want to arrest deserters, it is equivalent to crossing the border to arrest people, German soldiers entered the territory of the Qing State without authorization, although it may not cause anything, the Chinese government is afraid that the matter will be calm, but just after the war, the German diplomatic and colonial departments have issued a notice to Qingdao, demanding that all kinds of conflicts with the Chinese be avoided as much as possible, especially Chinese civilians!
Obviously, the Germans were not too worried about the Chinese government, but were very worried about directly clashing with the Chinese people.
From the seventh day, there was finally no more escape, but at this time, less than half of the remaining soldiers of Huayong Company, there were only about thirty people, this is what kind of bullshit company is Tama, this is shit!
He once fought in West Africa, climbed step by step to captain, went to China to find opportunities, helped the Chinese train soldiers, and served the British, just because he was not bullshit, just because he was just a Pole, he just couldn't climb up. He said his surname was Feng, but he could only say that his surname was Feng in China, and he was not a fart in Germany.
Captain Werner began to drink heavily.
"Yang, tell me, tell me how I can understand the Chinese? What the hell do I need to do to get ahead! ”
"It's very simple, become a Chinese!"
"How?"
"First of all, you have to take a Chinese name, such as Huowa, it's good, Ma Huowa!"
"Ma Huowa, okay, okay, call me Ma Huowa in the future. I want to get ahead in China! I'm going to be Werner von Mahovalski. No, it's von Mahuwa! ”
Well, as soon as Mr. Ma Huowa woke up, he suddenly decided to Yang Chao.
For before him was a large diamond, a colorless and transparent, brilliant diamond, larger than the one on the chest of the damned Doge's woman, weighing fifty carats.
And, of course, a letter, a promise that he would become a nobleman within ten years and at the same time have a fortune of three million gold marks.
So Mr. Mahuwa submitted a letter of resignation to the colonial government, and he was very resolute in order to take responsibility for the failure of the Huayong Company he had formed. In fact, a small Polish officer resigned, and the governor did not take it too seriously, and approved it easily.
"Damn the Chinese, I believe you, I believe you. If you can't fulfill your promise, I'll kill you. ”
After getting the governor's approval, Ma Huwa retired even if he retired, and then he took the approval letter and thought viciously that the military rank, the salary and subsidies he had earned for ten years of struggle, and the salary and subsidies in the colony were all finished, just because he woke up dizzy and believed the Chinese.
The first task that Mr. Ma Huowa got was to take a group of deserters under his command to Jinan!
"Young, with no background, eager to succeed, able to endure all hardships, even at risk. And most importantly a Pole. That's good, I didn't misread him. ”
Yang Chao rode on the horse and said to Yuan Keding.
Yuan Keding praised: "Brother Yang is really talented, and foreigners are just like that. ”
But he thought in his heart: "This Yang Chao, sure enough, there is a ghost, and the Germans even gave it to him." What did he have to do with the Germans? ”
They were followed by seventy-eight soldiers, ten cavalry, and sixty-eight infantry, but at this time they could only be on foot, and it was easy for people to escape from the German barracks, but it was difficult for horses to escape, so Yang Chao's new employee, Ma Huowa, could only advance on foot with the soldiers.
"I don't know what Brother Yang wants to do when he recruits these soldiers?"
Yang Chao has co-opted these soldiers who have been trained by the Germans for more than two years in the past few days, and has also pulled in the captains and officers who have trained these people, and Yuan Keding is a little confused about what Yang Chao wants to do.
Yang Chao said with a smile: "Set up a mercenary to help people solve troubles, I don't know if Lord Yuan is in trouble?" ”
Yuan Keding smiled dryly and said, "Not for the time being." ”
"But what kind of soldier is a mercenary?"
Yuan Keding asked again.
Yang Chao didn't know how to explain: "It's a foreigner's thing, it's a bodyguard, a security guard or something, understand?" ”
Yuan Keding suddenly realized: "It's the dart master!" Brother Yang, do you want to start a dart game? ”
Yang Chao said depressedly: "You can think whatever you want." However, the dart in the lower protection is a bit big, such as protecting the country! ”
Ma Huowa marched in line with the soldiers, and he didn't understand why Yang Chao didn't give him one when he had two horses.
He suddenly felt that this Chinese was a little unreliable.
Why did he get so confused?
Mahuwa couldn't help but quietly pinched the diamond in his pocket, he had already asked a drinking friend on the dock, a Jewish clockmaker from Poland who had immigrated from Ukraine to Poland, to estimate the value of this diamond at least 100,000 marks, which was real.
Although Ma Huowa is not rich, as a German officer with ten years of military experience, he is not short of money, but he doesn't want money, what he wants is status, the kind of person who looks at you and talks to you, it seems polite, but it is as polite as their dog.
Born in a small town on the eastern border of Germany, to a Russian drunkard father and a local daughter, he grew up fighting, stealing and robbing, and went to prison before graduating from high school.
He came out after a year of imprisonment, and then he changed his face, because he fell in love with a German girl from a church school, a girl who made him willing to give everything, and he was a local villain, she was the mayor's daughter (also called the mayor of a Polish town), but the girl also fell in love with him.
Later, the girl was forced by her father to marry a financier who had come to invest in coal mines in the area, not because the financier was rich, but because the financier's surname was Feng, because he was a nobleman, a half-old man nobleman.
He will never forget that day.
After that, he changed again, he became a positive, patriotic good boy, he was a soldier, he wanted to serve the Kaiser, he wanted to make meritorious contributions to Germany......
Ten years have passed, and he can't remember the girl's face clearly, and he doesn't have those longings, but he wants to make meritorious contributions to the Kaiser, but he has not changed his original intention.
