"How many of these workers do you get used to living at sea?"

Yang Feng asked Lin Wenchang.

More than 1,000 workers have completed the assembly, most of them are young men, black and thin standing in a large area, not only pure Chinese, but also some should be considered Chinese, but to Yang Feng's surprise, the education level of these people is far greater than that of China at this time, most of them have primary school education, and even many have gone to middle school.

In fact, unlike the domestic propaganda of later generations, in the Dutch East Indies, the Chinese were the upper class, and could even be on an equal footing with the whites, including the applicable laws were the same as the whites, but for the management of the aborigines, the Dutch people used a different set of laws.

As for the Red Creek massacre, it was the early days of the Dutch colony, to put it bluntly, they and the Chinese fought for control of Batavia, before the Red Creek massacre, there were dozens of sugar plantations around Batavia, only one was Dutch, and the rest were all Chinese, is this a Chinese colony or a Dutch colony? Later, the governor of the Netherlands was arrested and died in prison, but which of those executioners was tried in the massacre after the establishment of Java?

And it was the depression in the East Indies after the Red Creek Massacre that made the Dutch people understand that it is impossible to do without Chinese here, and then their attitude towards the Chinese has completely become co-optation, and even some of the early immigrants to the Chinese have their own territories, and their status exceeds that of the old princes, and in the end it is basically formed that the Dutch are responsible for management and protection, of course, mainly to collect taxes to support the locals, and the Chinese are responsible for making money and paying taxes for them, and the aborigines are trampled on the bottom of the feet.

This is also why during the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese in the East Indies could continue to transfuse blood for the country, because the Chinese here were rich, and thousands of Nanyang mechanics could return to China to participate in the war, and also because their living conditions were better here, and they had easier access to cars than the poor and backward domestic people, and even many of them might have their own cars.

"My lord, there is no one who is not coming and going in the wind and waves to beg for a life here." Lin Wenchang said.

"They didn't want to be in the navy?"

"You mean let them drive that cruiser?"

"Yes, I can tell you clearly, I don't have a sailor now, and the Kaohsiung is a heavy cruiser, with a normal establishment of 900 people, not only this warship, I also need a large number of army soldiers, at least one division, and it must be all Chinese, but the total population here is not enough for a division!"

"As long as the military salary is appropriate, you can have as much as you want, let alone a division, I can help you recruit a army."

"What is the military salary of the people of the United States now?"

"It seems that the average soldier pays tens of dollars a month, and the officer must be much higher, but at most it is only a few hundred dollars."

"By their standards."

"Your Excellency." Lin Wenchang swallowed his saliva fiercely, and said with a little trembling lips: "It doesn't need so much, half of it is enough." ”

"Half? How can half of it be done, is it true that the lives of our Chinese are not as expensive as the gold of white people? In addition, tell them that the casualty compensation is also in accordance with the standard of the Mi Army, as long as the head of state is not dead, this standard will never change, but there is a requirement, they must join the Ming Empire, of course, if they have other nationalities, they can also retain, we recognize dual nationality, in addition, they must also join the Ming Empire Imperial Revival Party, and they are not allowed to join other parties in the future. Yang Feng said.

At this stage, if he wants to pull people, he must get a high salary, anyway, the most important thing he lacks is money, according to this standard, a soldier is only a Ming ingots a month, and now the fifty tons of gold on the Voyager are enough for a division for thousands of years, money is a fart here, and talent is what he lacks the most.

Lin Wenchang, who was dizzy by this standard, immediately ran to the workers he brought to start the propaganda, and it didn't take long to bring out half of the conditions for receiving Yang Feng from it, and after some selection, this batch recruited a total of 400 soldiers.

These 400 people mixed with the original 800 people, and then picked out the most educated Yang Feng to interview in person, just like the bald guy interviewed his students, of course, the main thing was to ask some personal questions, such as what books he liked to read, how his family situation was, how his ideological consciousness was, and so on. And this guy often inadvertently quotes some famous sayings and aphorisms such as the horse sect leader, and uses this method to lure out a lot of simple-minded hot-blooded young people, as for the results of these people, needless to say.

He used this method to finally identify all the officers of the navy and the army, and then divided the 1,200 men in half, half as the army and half as the navy, and then all of them were handed over to those robot soldiers for training, and the rest of the workers were together with the migrant workers on the island, led by Zeng Fu Yin to carry out the construction, Lin Wenchang continued to run out to recruit troops and workers for him from all over the country, and Huang Yechun was responsible for purchasing supplies from Temasek for him, of course, he was definitely not purchasing ordinary materials.

First of all, the cannonballs that Kaohsiung Ji needs, there are not many shells of various calibers carried on the original ship, and a large part of them have been moved to the shore by the Japanese army, these shells are urgently needed by Yang Feng, the battle of Temasek was not completed, these shells are basically all piled up in the ammunition depot of the Japanese army, and in the end, the cheap Britons might as well be cheap him.

In addition, there is oil, the current Kaohsiung Ji Ke has no oil at all, and the Japanese army has a large amount of heavy oil reserves in Temasek, which is also needed by Yang Feng. Then there is food, with the rapid increase in the population of Yingtianfu, food is definitely not enough, and the Japanese army has also hoarded a large amount of food for the battle of Temasek, which can be obtained.

After the Emperor read out the edict of surrender, it was not until September 3 that the British army entered Temasek to accept the surrender of the Japanese army, and for most of the month, Temasek was actually in a state of anarchy, and those Chinese who were full of hatred because of the Temasek massacre spontaneously came out to attack the Japanese soldiers, execute traitors, and even set fire to the Japanese ** camp, of course, there were also those who took advantage of the chaos to rob.

In this chaotic situation...

Well, in this chaotic situation, the head of the Ming Empire personally drove to Temasek.

"This is Temasek?"

Yang Feng stood on the deck of the European bison, looking at the city in front of him with emotion, the governor's mansion that he destroyed the night before yesterday has not yet been cleaned up, and he looks a little booed.

"My lord, it's not called that here."

Huang Yechun hurriedly said that he took this hovercraft all the way down for fifty-five knots, and his head is still dizzy.

The speed of this thing made him dumbfounded, Temasek, which could only arrive in at least one day and one night, jumped over directly in more than five hours, but this fuel consumption also made him dumbfounded, dozens of tons of oil ran out in five hours, he didn't know that Yang Feng still added an extra fuel tank, otherwise this hovercraft would not be able to run back and forth at all.

"We are the Ming Empire, so naturally we have to follow the name of the Ming Empire, Zheng He's chart is marked with Temasek, so we have to call this place Temasek." Yang Feng said dissatisfied.

Lao Huang quickly shut up.

After the European bison entered the Temasek offshore, the furious roar of the three 10,000-horsepower gas turbines did not abate in the slightest, and the multi-hundred-ton warship rushed directly onto a relatively gentle beach under the jaw-dropping gaze of the shore, and even drove forward for a while before stopping, and then the bow hatch opened after the deflat, and a red steel monster roared fiercely, rushing out of the inside, and the angular huge body instantly rolled out two deep ruts on the soft ground.

Well, Yang Feng plundered the South African Paramount Company's specially designed Marauder prototype car, and in the future, this fifteen-ton wheeled armored car will be his Führer's special car.

And on the front of this monster, two red flags hunt and dance, one is the empire's dragon hugging the sun and moon flag, and the middle of the flag is the golden Yang character, which is Yang Feng's head of state flag, as for the roof of the car, of course, there are soldiers with large-caliber machine guns, but considering that those beautiful robots can't kill, so this time the machine gunners are all human soldiers who have just been recruited by him.

The reason why they used all of them was very simple, because this time he was accompanied by a full ten Humvee M1151s, these heavily armored Humvees directly from the Ami Army, with armored bunkers on their heads, large-caliber machine guns and even grenade launchers, like ten African spotted hyenas, fiercely rushed out of the cabin one after another, and then quickly swung in front of and behind the marauders, and rushed into the city of Temasek with murderous vigour.

Those ordinary people on the shore are stupid.

Who has ever seen this kind of pomp?

Looking at the giant warships on the shore, the slow-turning turrets, the dragon and the moon flag on the masts, and the fierce armored cars, the Chinese people in Temasek feel that their brains are running out.

They were stupid, and so were the Japanese army, who were still theoretically running the city.

A group of Japanese soldiers who were lying behind sandbags with bayonets in front of the nearby barracks, silently enduring the siege of Chinese stones and rotten eggs, watched in amazement as the convoy drove in front of them.

Immediately after that, ten Humvee M1151s quickly lined up, and the 12.7 mm M2 machine guns were all aimed at them, and at the same time, the doors of these cars opened one after another, and the soldiers who were a mixture of robots and humans quickly got out of the cars, and raised their automatic rifles under the cover of the car doors to aim at the Japanese soldiers in the barracks.

At the same time, the AK630 and rocket launchers on the European bison in the distance were also aimed at this side, and after all the preparations were completed, the rear door of the predator in the middle opened, and six beautiful bodyguards came out with FN2000 in their arms, and stood in line at the front door, one of them pulled the car door, and a black German-style military hat appeared in the field of vision of the commander of the Japanese army on the opposite side.
