Chapter 120: Entering the Bandit Mountain
Cheng Lei suddenly had an idea in his heart, can the Tieji tribe be directly transformed from a nomadic tribe to a modern tribe? He can expand a piece of land to the north of the Lion King base to the Tieji tribe, and then let the people of the Tieji tribe directly become the people of the Lion King base, and then slowly assimilate, by that time the Lion King base has grown its personnel, and the Tieji tribe can also get the greatest protection. It's just that in this way, it has become the lion king's base and annexed the Tieji tribe, I don't know if Dun Leha can agree.
When he told Shigeyama about this idea, Shigeyama raised his hands in approval. Because he knew that with his friendship with Cheng Lei, even after the Tieji tribe was annexed by the Lion King Base, Cheng Lei would definitely not treat him badly, and would definitely give him a very good position!
However, in this way, Chongshan must assist Cheng Lei to persuade the leader of Dunleha that it is best to let the leader of Dunleha take the initiative to join the Lion King base, so that there will be no misunderstandings and the like that will embarrass everyone. But is the chief of Dun Leha so convincing? Cheng Lei shook his head, he felt that it would definitely not be that simple, so he decided to let Chongshan go back first to find out the tone of the leader of Dunleha, if Dunleha's will was to agree to join the Lion King base, then they would implement this plan.
However, Shigeyama felt that more than eighty percent of the leaders of Tun Leha would not agree to this matter. Because Dun Leha is the kind of tribal leader who is very uncivilized, he does not dare and does not want to risk the infamy of betraying his people to do such a thing. However, Cheng Lei still hopes to try it if he can, and Cheng Lei also listed many benefits for Chongshan after joining the Lion King Base.
The first is, of course, to be able to be protected by the Lion King Army in all directions, and at that time, Cheng Lei will no longer have to worry about the tribe of his father-in-law who will say that some people in the base will say that he always takes care of his father-in-law's tribe. The second is that when the time comes, the residential area of the second Lion King Base will be established between the Lion King Base and the Silver Tower City to be inhabited by the Tieji tribe, so that the Tieji tribe can become a bridge between the Lion King Base and the Silver Tower City, and at that time, the technology and culture of the Tieji tribe will develop by leaps and bounds, and it will no longer be the nomadic tribe that is still very backward now. Moreover, Cheng Lei will also give sufficient material security to all the people of the Tieji tribe, and will definitely make the treatment of the herdsmen of the Tieji tribe the same as that of the residents of the original Lion King base residential area. The third and most attractive one, as long as the iron-based tribe submits to the Lion King base, all suitable adult men and women of the iron-based tribe can go to work in the major factories and other departments of the Lion King base, and they will get a salary, of course, they can also join the army, Cheng Lei is actually more inclined to them to join the army is the best.
Moreover, Cheng Lei, the position of the leader of Dun Leha, can be decided now, that is, one of the deputy leaders of the Lion King base. Now there are two deputy leaders in the Lion King Base, one is Zheng Bin and the other is Qi Mi, but Zheng Bin's jurisdiction is more biased towards the Lion King Army, and Qi Mi's jurisdiction is biased towards the Lion King Base. What Cheng Lei means is that if the leader of Dun Leha is willing, after becoming the deputy leader of the Lion King base, he will have jurisdiction over the civilians of the first and second residential areas. Now there are more than 30,000 civilians in the residential area of the Lion King's base, and if the 10,000 or 20,000 civilians of the Tieji tribe join, there will be nearly 50,000 civilians, and then the authority of the leader of Dun Leha will be very large. Chongshan and Tiemu will be directly transferred to the government affairs center by Cheng Lei, Chongshan is very good at diplomacy, so he can serve as the deputy minister of the foreign affairs department of the Lion King Base, and if he performs well, he can also be the minister. As for Tie Mu, he is very researched and experienced in logistics, so Cheng Lei is ready to let him serve as the head of the Lion King Army's independent heavy regiment, specializing in providing material support for all combat troops. At that time, the transport team of the logistics department that specializes in supplying the Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment will also be included in the Heavy Regiment, because he holds the economic lifeline of each unit, so the head of this Heavy Regiment can be said to be a high authority, and he can let Cheng Lei give him this position, which also shows that Cheng Lei is very interested in Tiemu.
Chongshan listened carefully to all of Cheng Lei's ideas, and he felt that Cheng Lei was simply too godly, and he actually took out this plan without much thought in a short period of time. And also arranged suitable positions for the three of them, father and son, how can this not make Chongshan feel admired? If he can follow such a smart person as Cheng Lei, he will definitely be able to make a great career in the future! Chongshan thought about these silently in his heart, and then took his leave and went back, his idea was to tell Cheng Lei's all the plans to the leader of Dunleha as soon as possible, and then see if he could attract the heart of the leader of Dunleha and Tiemu. If it can really attract them, then it will save the mountains and more words.
But can the chiefs of Dun Leha and Temu agree? Not only is Chongshan's heart bottomless, but Cheng Lei is also not very optimistic about this plan. Because the Tieji tribe is not a tribe of the leader of Dun Leha alone after all, there are more than 10,000 herdsmen and thousands of cavalry in the tribe, if most people are against it, then there is no luck at all, they just don't want to hold that idea anymore, because the power of the senator meeting within the Tieji tribe is very heavy, how heavy is it? If the tribal leader makes a big mistake, the council of elders can directly convene an emergency meeting to remove the leader! This is also what Cheng Lei is worried about, even if the leader of Dunleha agrees to his proposal, this is a question related to how the entire Tieji tribe will go in the future. If someone says that the leader of Dun Leha betrayed the Tieji tribe for the sake of his power, the chief of Dun Leha is probably powerless to refute it. By that time, the Senate would have deposed the head of Dun Raha again, and the Tieji tribe would be out of their control.
How can the Senate of the Ironbase Tribe be able to agree to this proposal, and then put pressure on Tunleha if the Tunleha chieftain does not agree? Cheng Lei called Zheng Bin and Qi Mi to discuss, Qi Mi thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Captain, how much is the annual income of the Tieji tribe, and are those elders all big herdsmen?" Even if they are large herdsmen, how much property can they have? ”
Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin immediately understood what he meant, and Zheng Bin said: "You mean that we will take them down directly with money?" ”
Qi Mi nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean, I don't believe that those patriarchs who are herdsmen or tribal rangers will be able to resist the temptation of money." You think, what are they joining the Council of Elders, for? In fact, it is just to get some benefits for himself or his family. I have already seen through the people who engage in politics in this world, and each of them is a personality that cannot afford to be profitable. If this senator is not greedy for money, I won't believe it if I am killed! ”
Zheng Bin said thoughtfully: "It's okay to use money to smash them, but the key is how much money to use?" If we take less, I'm afraid they won't agree with us at all. If we take too much, then we will suffer. How do you measure that? ”
Cheng Lei called a guard in at this time and asked him to go to the base immediately on the way to the Tieji tribe to chase back Chongshan, there is something particularly important. Chongshan drove his tank, so he walked very slowly, and the guards went in Cheng Lei's command car, so they were not afraid of not being able to catch up with Chongshan at all.
At this time, Cheng Lei said: "As for how much we should spend, then we will know if we chase Chongshan back." Now Shigeyama has fully supported our idea, so he is his own person, and there is no need to hide anything from him. ”
Qi Mi and Zheng Bin both nodded in understanding, and after an hour, Chongshan was finally chased back. After entering the house, Chongshan was still complaining that Cheng Lei didn't finish the matter at one time, and he ran away in vain, but Cheng Lei's words made him feel very frightened. Chongshan also heard the meaning of Cheng Lei's words, they wanted to bribe the elders of the Senate to achieve the results they wanted.
Chongshan gave them a number, the average Senate member is ten gold victors per month, so everyone is envious of them, after all, the Tieji tribe is a nomadic tribe, even those rangers are only twenty or thirty silver Karens per month, which is only twenty or thirty lion king yuan. The patriarchs who had nothing to do all day had ten golden victors a month, and there were eight of them in all. I am afraid that this money will be a lot of money in the hands of a small ordinary person or other people. However, the members of the Senate did not count on only those who made money, they had other ways to make money, but they used their power to win it.
According to Shigeyama, all the members of the Senate were worth no more than two thousand gold victors, which included all their own cattle, sheep, livestock, and furniture. And two thousand gold victors are still too much, and the poorer of them don't even have a thousand gold victors!
Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin discussed it together, and immediately decided to invite those members of the Senate to come to the Lion King Base as soon as they returned from Chongshan. Presumably Cheng Lei's invitation to those elders will give him face, after all, Cheng Lei is the leader of the Lion King Army, and the current Tieji tribe is fully responsible for their safety by the Lion King Army. In the past, the thousands of rangers of the Tieji tribe were relatively large in the territory of the Scorching Sun Federation, but now, since the Baronos launched an invasion of their neighbors, the armed force of thousands of people is not a big force at all. Now even the number of Duke Dozan's city guards is as many as a few thousand, and the Federation Army of Daheng City, needless to say, has now expanded to forty or fifty thousand people, and they want to ensure that the Liedong Federation will definitely be able to withstand the invasion of the Balon'ou people in the future.
After Cheng Lei and the others discussed, they made a decision that they must use their absolute financial resources to buy off those members of the Senate and let them fully support the Lion King Base to annex the Tieji tribe. Of course, the Senate will also be disbanded directly after the Lion King Base completes the annexation of the Tieji tribe, and those Senate members cannot have any objections, because since they have already taken the money, they don't have to think about holding power anymore, they can't have both, this is something that a three-year-old child can think of and know.
Just when Cheng Lei and the others were discussing how to annex the Tieji tribe in the past few days, the Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment also marched along the prairie towards the bandit mountain, and they had already entered the hinterland of the grassland. Because the weeds on the grassland are overgrown and all grow very tall, and some of the weeds have grown to the height of more than one person, so the vehicles of the Iron Tiger Regiment are quite difficult. In desperation, Montali had no choice but to order the pickup and jeep convoys, which had been in front, to start falling backwards, with tanks and armored vehicles at the front, so that the road could be better opened up, and it would also be easier for the infantry and heavy wagons to travel.
Eight days later, the first vanguard of the Iron Tiger Regiment, the eighth company of the 1st reconnaissance battalion, entered the sphere of influence of the bandit mountain. The commander of the eighth company sent a vanguard detachment of 12 people to take the lead in entering the bandit mountain, which they were very familiar with before, to complete the reconnaissance mission of the bandit mountain.
The supreme commander of the twelve was a man under thirty years of age, he was a lieutenant and a platoon commander of the Eighth Company, Lake. The other eleven men he led were also the best eleven soldiers in their platoon, all armed with SW-1 automatic rifles, methodically conducting a circular reconnaissance around the edge of the Bandit Mountain. All the people were very nervous, because they had heard that there was now an armed force of several hundred men stationed in the bandit mountain, but they did not know whether it was two hundred or three hundred. Moreover, the main goal of this reconnaissance is also to see the number of these people stationed in the bandit mountain, and whether they have been completely stationed here, and also to conduct detailed reconnaissance of their firepower points and complete all the map operations, so that after the two sides of them fight the fire, the Iron Tiger Regiment can get the greatest advantage to attack the enemy!
Just as Lake and his soldiers had just infiltrated the outermost layer of the Bandit Mountain, intending to go a little further inside and reconnoitre, they suddenly noticed a flash of fire on a hill about fifty meters high in front of them. Since it was already night, the glow of the campfire that those people were burning would travel far away. And these people don't seem to be afraid of being seen at all, maybe they have stayed too comfortable on the bandit mountain during this time. If they had known that an elite force of more than a thousand men was preparing to open fire on them, they would not have been so comfortable.
Lake was tempted not to alarm them, but after some testing, he found that the hill was a sentry and fortress that could be attacked in all directions. If they want to enter, they can only move forward after clearing the hill. But it's easy to say, if you want to clean up this mountain, Lake's heart is also very bottomless. (To be continued.) )
