Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Monkey Who Gave Birth to Me Died (7)
Talent is the first way to raise a strong army.
Although the Praetorian Guards fought hard in the past, they established a great prestige and were known as the strongest army in the Qing Dynasty. However, in the eyes of the Western powers, there are still many shortcomings.
During the First Sino-Japanese War, the British and French colonial powers all had military attachΓ©s in their own armies, as well as in some armies of the Qing State. The Janissaries were closely observed, and even the German minister in China found his way and asked Koonz's advisory group to submit a report to them.
In Koontz's report, he stated that the Janissaries were a young group, armed with the average level of European armies, and especially in terms of infantry firepower. But the biggest flaw is the lack of a sufficient number of qualified middle and lower-ranking officers. Cadets from Nanyang and Beiyang who were trained in a short period of time have less than a year of formal military education. At most, it is enough to complete the training of military personnel, and the skills education is far from enough. As a result, in this battle, the junior and middle-ranking officers relied more on their courage - which, fortunately, was never lacking in them - to lead and direct their men, and shouted more to follow me than to rush me. Even Xu Yifan once joined the charging queue, what room for retreat was there for the officers he brought out?
Because of this, the Praetorian Guard moved poorly and commanded in panic in some parts of the battle. Middle- and lower-ranking officers suffered excessive casualties. Of the more than 1,000 Nanyang students in the first phase, more than 800 joined the Praetorian Guard, and less than half are still serving in the army. The first thing to strengthen the Praetorian Guard is to establish a formal military education system, otherwise with the gradual loss of vitality, this army may be like several strong armies in Chinese history, and finally it will be a short-lived fate. Koonz also strongly recommended that the Janissary Army education system learn from Prussian Germany!
Another major flaw is that the supporting system of the Praetorian Guard is seriously lacking. In modern times, the army corps must have a staff system, communications, logistics, military stations, and transportation ............ It is a large, complete and organic system. And the Praetorian Guard created an infantry force capable of fighting, as well as a small amount of artillery. However, this supporting system is far from sufficient. During the First Sino-Japanese War, relying on the large amount of military supplies hoarded in advance, more than 50,000 Korean civilians were requisitioned, the trade routes of Dashengkui on land cooperated, and the transport caravans hired by the sea Nanyang occasionally smuggled to transport supplies. It supported the combat operations of this Janissary Army, with a main force of less than 20,000 people, and barely ensured a wide range of mobility capabilities. But after a battle, if it weren't for the internal battle, and the army was just as clumsy in this regard, I really don't know what the result would be. For example, the Korean people who were requisitioned were extremely inefficient, and the local officials only wanted to send them out, but the people in the army did not know how to effectively command them to carry out continuous supplies to the Praetorian Guards! If it weren't for the hundreds of children of Da Shengkui who used their experience in caravan organization, there would have been jokes at that time.
Kong Ci also communicated with Xu Yifan on this issue at that time, and Xu Yifan said proudly, if it weren't for Lao Tzu, who would be able to unify so many messy power organizations? Lao Tzu, this is a people's war!
And the old man Koontz also replied unceremoniously, when Your Excellency mobilizes hundreds of thousands of troops to do a general war such as the Franco-Prussian War, it is necessary to mobilize all the forces that can be mastered to cooperate with the battle. Tens of thousands of people are fighting, if the army's own strength cannot guarantee its effective operation, it is a shame for the army!
Shame is not shameful, Xu Yifan doesn't care, but at that time, looking at the face of the old man Tie Qing of Kong Ci, Xu Yifan hummed and chirped for a long time. To solve this problem, it is nothing more than qualified personnel, and in the military education system, it is necessary to increase the number of specialized military training schools, such as logistics stations, chief accounting managers, baggage transportation, and communication and liaison............ It all costs a lot of money! He selfishly thought that with the Praetorian Guards in front of him, it was enough to usurp the great cause, and those guys in the center of the imperial court wanted to pull out a new army that could compete with him, and he Xu Yifan would have already entered Yanjing City! At that time, I guess they hadn't finished tearing the skin............ Improving the entire military system will be a matter of mastering most of the country's resources. But looking at Kong Ci's expression of not giving in, Chu Wanli didn't know where he had slipped away, and he didn't make a round, Li Yun was there, but he expressed unreserved support for anything to strengthen the army............ Xu Yifan can only grit his teeth and close his eyes, and when he arrives in Liangjiang, let you do it!
In addition to this, there is also the question of the weak heavy firepower of the Praetorian Guard, which has sufficient firepower of the infantry of the Janissaries. But it didn't matter the field light artillery, the field heavy artillery, and the siege heavy artillery -- except for the battalion where he had a field artillery battalion, everything else was zero. After the Korean war was over, he fought in southern Liaoning, simply borrowing the artillery strength of other Qing army camps, and some of them were later unceremoniously annexed to his own hands. But it's not enough!
Without artillery, what to fight a battle? Xu Yifan looked at Kong Ci with a weak heart at that time, in the short term in the future, the foreseeable enemy is the center of the Qing court, and Lao Tzu does not need to fight a large-scale battle............ But looking at the old man's constipated expression, Li Yun's eyes flashed, Xu Yifan gritted his teeth and nodded, I promised you! In the Liangjiang military education system, plus artillery construction talents, I will buy you a batch of artillery! But Lao Tzu doesn't have much money, you Koontz continue to serve, and your salary will have to be reduced a little!
This kind of pile pile is added together, which leads to the area of Tangshan outside Jiangning City, which has become the current scene.
The civil construction personnel of the brigade and brigade are surveying the terrain here and preparing to start the construction of various military schools. The first and second normal schools of Liangjiang are also planned to be located here. Tang Shaoyi is very shrewd, and now he sees that military spending is a big head, although he doesn't know where Xu Yifan got this money from, but let's hang the Liangjiang Normal here first, and then talk about it, the expenditure can also go from the military expenses, Tang Shaoyi also confidently found a reason -- military education is all modern educational talents, hired by various countries, and there are also talents who have returned from studying abroad. This teacher can be universal! This saves a lot of expenses, besides, normal students are prepared for universal education, and the students to be recruited are also those poor soldiers, anyway, they have to provide them with food and clothing, and the army supply system, add another sum to it, save trouble, and let these soldiers be mixed in the military school, feel the military prestige of the Praetorian Guard, learn some discipline, and strengthen their sense of belonging to this group............ In short, although he is in charge of civil affairs and has his own income, he still has to take advantage of Xu Yifan's small treasury!
As for why it is said to be Xu Yifan's small treasury, because the previous expenses of the Praetorian Guard were all raised by Xu Yifan, and in the foreseeable year, he will all have to go to heaven and earth to find this money. Liangjiang place, don't count on this year's income, in the New Year, no matter whether you are busy or busy, all of them have been collected, the customs salt tax, Xu Yifan has not had time to reach out, and the treasury has basically been wasted by Rong Lu, the dead ghost, Nanyang funds have been turned to invest in the cause they have opened up in Liangjiang - who let Xu Yifan be the leader, when this green and yellow is not accepted, everyone will rely on him!
I have to say that everyone has unexpected trust in Xu Yifan's ability to find a way to find money.
Around Tangshan, there are all pits and valleys full of people, and teams of chariots and horses came from the south and transported a large number of building materials. Because it is the time of the New Year, there are not many people, and everyone has to celebrate the New Year. More were officers and soldiers from the first and second towns of the Janissaries. Most of them are northerners, and they can't be counted on when they go home for the New Year on vacation, so they stay here to use their labor. These well-nourished officers and men were working profusely with a trumpet shouting and sweating profusely, dragging stones to level the area, digging pits and mud to beat adobe, cutting down trees and digging foundations, and they were working in full swing. Piles of technicians dressed in all kinds of costumes, most of whom Zhan Tianyou had trained in North Korea, were also sweating profusely and running around to provide technical guidance. In the surrounding townships, the people who cut the door for the winter were idle, with their sleeves and necks bent, selling and watching the excitement on the high and low mountains in the distance.
In the cold winter, these people who eat food and pay in the big camp are really motivated! In the winter, some people wear a white shirt and shout loudly, how much do they eat a month, so hard? Looking at the past, it was full of strong boys, don't look at the withering grass and trees around, they are here, and it seems that even the cold weather can ignite!
They didn't know that there was a reason why the Praetorian Guards were so motivated. Don't look at the Praetorian Guard's great prestige, it turned to the north and south, but it was a homeless and lonely army floating around! North Korea is just a place to live. Only now do they really have a place to stay! The construction of a military school in this place is the century-old foundation of this army, and this strong army will not slowly wither away, will not be dismantled, but will start from here, truly develop and grow, until it becomes the force of the whole country! A group that has no confidence in the future is not a good group, and Xu Yifan's start of construction with such fanfare is to give them this confidence in the future!
Moreover, news has already come out that senior military officers have also begun to screen and select officers and soldiers at the grassroots level. With the first town of the Janissaries as the backbone, at least 3,000 to 5,000 experienced officers and men with military exploits should be selected to enter schools at all levels for correctional training. They're working for their future!
The last reason is a bit funny to say, the Praetorian Guard manages and upbrings, mainly because Li Yunzong is holding on. Xu Yifan and Chu Wanli have a common characteristic, they like to be lazy. Li Yunzong has a cold face and a fierce spirit, strictly governs the army, and trains fiercely. There were some self-deprecating words in the Praetorian Guard.
"There is no right one on the field, and there is no one in the small row", "I'm not afraid that you will be naughty, just afraid of a single coach!" "Most of the soldiers are from peasant families, and they work hard, which is much easier than the usual three and two talks!
On a hill, a group of people gathered together, just looking at the vibrant scene in front of them with emotion. Among the crowd, there were those wearing the uniforms of the Praetorian Guards, as well as those in long shirts and horse coats. Several members of Xu Yifan's basic team have come to inspect the construction status here.
Li Yunzong still kept his face cold and didn't speak, facing the army, and it was rare to see him satisfied. Chu Wanli is usually mixed up, and the number two people around Li Yunzong at this time are Zhang Xuzhou and Nie Shicheng, Nie will also say something about the scene, and smile at Zhan Tianyou, who has the color of servants and dust: "Lord Zhan, if it weren't for the support of these talents under your command, how could you have this situation in such a short period of time!" This is the century-old foundation of our Praetorian Guard! It is also the century-old foundation of Dashuai! We've finally got a place to stay! If Lord Zhan is free, I'll invite someone to kneel and thank you, everyone come! β
One sentence shows Nie Shicheng's current mentality, he has truly integrated into this group.
Zhan Tianyou had a gloomy face, and his mouth was also [***]: "Thank you, don't use it, if you can tell the big handsome, use less of my people here, let me come over a few times, I kneel down to thank you, Lord Nie!" As soon as the New Year is over, people from the south and north are coming, how many factory sites to be surveyed, how many mineral deposits to be reported, and the Manufacturing Bureau and the Foreign Affairs Bureau are also a mess, and it is not clear! If you don't know your background, how to attract business stocks? I really don't know how Li Zhongtang has been in business for 20 years, how can he stand these foolish accounts! I'm going to divide myself into three people now, and I'm going to help you build a house!" Colonization and industrial development rely on capital and talents, not the Praetorian Guard! β
He offends people when he speaks, and he is probably busy these days with annoyance. Nie Shicheng smiled and didn't care about him, but Zhang Xuzhou's eyes widened. Tang Shaoyi was originally quietly listening and watching. He is now the head of the Wenchen class, and now he is also a little self-respecting. Hearing Zhan Tianyou say this, he turned his head and smiled and played a round game: "Daren, that's not what you said, without the Praetorian Guard, how could we have the situation we have today?" The career of the commander is also made by the Praetorian Guard............ Of course, to create a new situation, the burden is much heavier than before, you are so anxious, but also worried about the career of the handsome, who doesn't know? But there are some things to say, we don't care here, Xingsun is not very good to hear, right? β
As soon as two sentences are spoken, neither side will open their mouths. Li Yunzong just glanced at Tang Shaoyi lightly and patted his stomach: "Eat!" β
The big guy just reacted, and before he knew it, he had been standing here for almost a morning! Don't look at Zhan Tianyou's tough words, but such a hot situation and such a vibrant career, how can people not be intoxicated!
Tang Shaoyi also immediately smiled: "It's been a long time since I have eaten the big pot dish of the Praetorian Guard!" When I was in North Korea, after a busy day, I went to the barracks to rub a meal of fatty cabbage, that fragrant! Yunzong, let's talk about it, eat yours, we won't pay for food! β
When it comes to the saying that everyone in North Korea shares weal and woe, even Zhan Tianyou and Zhang Xuzhou, who pulled down their faces a little bit from each other, smiled. Everyone got out of the hard work together, and now that the situation is so prosperous, what else is there to make trouble!
A few adults wanted to eat, so naturally the orderly soldiers hurried over to serve and escort the adults down the mountain. Tang Shaoyi smiled and prepared to return to Jiangning City after eating, originally he planned to come over today to inspect and see if Li Yunzong and they needed the assistance of the civil affairs authorities if they had any problems. But although Li Yunzong is a person who doesn't talk much, he takes care of everything he gives him. Just as he was about to raise his feet, he noticed that Li Yunzong's cold and electric gaze came over, as if he wanted to ask him to stay. Tang Shaoyi's heart moved, and she walked over slowly, while Li Yunzong deliberately took a few steps away from the crowd. Now everyone knows that Li Yunzong has confidential words to say to Tang Shaoyi, and let go of some of them, deliberately talking and laughing there.
"Yunzong, what do you have to say?" Tang Shaoyi asked in a low voice, it is really rare for this cold-faced Hades to take the initiative to find someone to talk to!
Li Yunzong looked at Tang Shaoyi coldly, and said lightly: "According to reason, I shouldn't ask questions, but the construction here is related to the cause of the commander and the development and growth of the Praetorian Guard............ Shaochuan, you are the big housekeeper of the big handsome, how much money do you have there? β
Xu Yifan deliberately built the Praetorian Guard into an elite group, and completely Prussian-style military education, all of which made the military people regard themselves as the pillars of the country's elite. Giving elite self-esteem and pride to the groups that follow them is the only way to make people loyal to death.
The ideal is one thing, the material foundation is another, and both are indispensable. If there is no ideal but there is elite treatment, the result is twilight corruption, and there is not enough corresponding treatment but only ideals, and the result is that it is difficult to last............ Xu Yifan asked himself if he was not as rebellious as the Taizu of his time and space.
The Praetorian Guard is cultivated with sophisticated equipment and good treatment, and to continue to maintain such a backbone force, it is necessary to invest accordingly, not that this team will be dispersed if it is embarrassing for a while, the important thing is that Xu Yifan is relying on the momentum of all the momentum under his command, and is ready to sweep the world with this momentum, if this momentum is interrupted, it will stalemate with the center. Then there is something to talk about -- when the time comes, heaven and earth will work together, and the heroes will not be free. Now that you have this time and situation, you must not let it break off! Strong financial strength is the foundation. Li Yunzong doesn't usually hum or ha, but at this time, he asked Tang Shaoyi this question, which shows that he actually has a mirror in his heart!
Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly and spread his hands, there was no need to hide it for Li Yunzong: "There is not much............ It can probably last for three or five months, and the big man said that he has a way, so we can only wait and see............ To be honest, although I am also embarrassed for Dashuai, but I don't know how, I just believe that Dashuai can solve this problem, don't you say strange? β
Li Yunzong was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "I never doubt the handsome............ Since the war in Anju. Let's wait and see............ Brother Shaochuan, born to be handsome, it is really a blessing in my life............"
"How is this not the case? Let's watch the big handsome take the world into their hands! I see, this road is not too far! Tang Shaoyi was high-spirited, and seemed not to worry about his thin family background at all, and echoed with a smile.
As if to make a footnote to what he said, there were already shouts from far and near.
"Handsome! Handsome! β
"The handsome man has come to see us!"
The two looked sideways, and saw that on the way from Jiangning City to here, in the shacks and rice sheds on both sides, all the officers and soldiers of the Praetorian Guard poured out, taking off their military hats and cheering towards the carriage with the flag of the Canglong Festival!
Xu Yifan took them for the rest of their lives, and brought them to Liangjiang single-handedly, and now he has spread out such a big stall to create a foundation and glory for the Praetorian Guard for the next hundred years! Follow Xu Yifan to challenge the whole world, what he is most afraid of is that he will not end up, since Xu Yifan has started the construction of the shelf, he has indicated that he will return a good result to the loyal and brave people who follow him. And not only that, now even the soldiers can see that Xu Yifan is pursuing the world of Dingge, and they are likely to be from the dragon. This is the first time Xu Yifan has appeared in the new base camp of the Tangshan Praetorian Guard, and what he ushered in was the military hats surging all over the mountains and fields, as well as loud cheers!
Looking at the construction scene in front of him, looking at the mountains and fields with so many people, and even more at Xu Yifan's cars and horses under Canglong, Xu Yifan's subordinates all stood solemnly. The times are like this, can heroes not take advantage of their luck?
Xu Yifan's carriage and horses were surrounded by the Praetorian Guard officers and soldiers who poured onto the road in a blink of an eye. Xu Yifan, who had been in Jiangning City, also got out of the carriage with a smile, waved his hand at the big guys, and more than a dozen Goshha attendants stood beside him, escorting him to get off the car, taking a look at the work sheds one by one, tucking the quilts on the soldiers' beds, and then looking at the sick soldiers who were recuperating. Tang Shaoyi and Li Yunzong rushed over as if they had flown early and stood around him. Xu Yifan came suddenly, and when he saw them, he just nodded. Everyone understands that Xu Yifan has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and he has to prepare for how many big undertakings he has to spread, and it is not just as simple as coming to inspect!
But Xu Yifan didn't say it, and they didn't want to ask. It's just a surprise to find that Pu Yang, who was a little worried in private a few days ago, has been waiting by Xu Yifan's side again with a straight face, this kid has lost a lot of weight, looks more stable, and has a straight face that does not leave Xu Yifan's side.
This kid, figured it out?
Xu Yifan looked at a few sheds, took a rice bowl with a smile, and casually found a food shed to cook. Also in the ranks of the soldiers. This kind of attitude is nothing more than undressing and pushing food, but those who are soldiers still eat this set. The officers and soldiers who lined up with Xu Yifan were all bold enough to talk to Xu Yifan, and Xu Yifan also smiled and answered all questions. Only the kitchen master was holding the spoon and trembling there, this master was Ma Hongjun, the fat chef on the China Merchants steamer, who didn't know how he turned his waist, and actually became the head of the Praetorian Guard! Holding a big spoon and being nervous there is so much fat that the fat on the neck is shaking, and the meals eaten by the soldiers are heavy and the salt is heavy, how can the handsome man get used to this! I knew it earlier, so I took out all the housekeeping skills!
"Dashuai, when can we go back to the north to see home?"
"You kid, you want to slip away?"
"Dashuai, how can this be! What we want is to return home! When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I was greeted by gongs and drums! β
"There is this day for you! Are you in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law? Then you have to think about getting promoted quickly, otherwise you can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law and raise your daughter-in-law, and you will be covered with flowers! β
"Dashuai, the mark has already been picked! North Korea, Liaonan, and the mark picked seven devils and got a devil flag! β
"It's good to get merit, under Lao Tzu's hands, I won't bury you!"
Xu Yifan has this natural affinity, in front of the big man, he is flying and domineering, the enemy is harder than him, he is harder. In front of these soldiers under his subordinates, there is no official authority at all. The big guys in the queue were chatting happily, and the soldiers burst into laughter from time to time. When Xu Yifan lined up in front of Ma Hongjun, he was stunned when he looked at his figure that was three sets higher than others, and then said with a smile: "After three years of drought, the big man who starves to death and is in charge of the kitchen, good boy, look at you with this sentence, Lao Tzu believes it!" β
Ma Hongjun grinned and wanted to laugh, but he was so nervous that he was like crying, and his head was full of white hair. Such a big hero, who wants to be the emperor's character and laugh with him, is the ancestral tomb of the Ma family Yangzhou smoking blue? He shook his hands and cooked: "Handsome...... The mouth was ...... and his hand shook, and half of it fell to the ground. Xu Yifan looked at Ma Hongjun who was frozen there, smiled and picked it up and put it in the bowl with his own hands, and wiped his oil hand on Ma Hongjun's apron: "It smells very fragrant, the craftsmanship is good, why don't you just be my cook?" β
Ma Hongjun's legs were weak, and he almost sat on the ground, and the soldier broke out into laughter behind him. Tang Shaoyi and Li Yun, who were also in the team, glanced at each other, but their faces became a little more solemn. Xu Yifan would never come here just to chat with the soldier! They have been with Xu Yifan for a long time, Xu Yifan smiled cheerfully, but the resentment and excitement between his eyebrows were fully revealed!
Xu Yifan found a place to eat in the laughter of the soldiers. Several dignitaries and Xu Yifan's goshha also scattered to eat. Their minds were not on the food at all, they just kept looking at Xu Yifan. But he saw Xu Yifan eating and drinking there as if nothing had happened, and from time to time he laughed and scolded the soldiers around him. Anyone who is scolded has a proud expression on his face.
I don't know when, Xu Yifan's voice was low, and the movements in his hands stopped. In the dining shed, there were seven or eight hundred Praetorian Guard officers and soldiers, and the outside was even more crowded with pits and valleys, all holding rice bowls and watching their handsomeness. Xu Yifan suddenly fell silent coldly, and the laughter and noise around him suddenly became silent, and there was silence around him, only feeling that the cheerful atmosphere just now was getting tighter and tighter at this time.
Just when everyone felt breathless, Xu Yifan suddenly stood up and slapped the table in front of him, pots and pans, and leftovers, jumping up half a day high! Immediately after that, as if he was still angry, he kicked hard and kicked the table in front of him again!
"Dashuai!" More than a dozen Goshha jumped up together, everyone was shaken, Li Yun stood up and rushed over in a few big steps.
"Handsome! What's wrong? β
Some people still looked at the fat chef Ma Hongjun who was still in a daze there, how bad is your kid's craftsmanship to make the handsome man so popular?
Xu Yifan pushed away Goshha, who rushed to the side, turned his head, and looked hideous: "What's wrong with Lao Tzu?" You should ask, what's wrong with this court! β
"Handsome?"
"Just today, Lao Tzu received news that this court wants to negotiate peace with the devil, and the North Korea, which our brothers have bled for 3,000 miles, will be ceded to the little devil! Our 3,000 brothers in Pyongyang are going to make this dog-called court pay 8 million taels of hard work, and ask our defeated little devils to disarm them! β
Everyone was stunned!
The rice bowls in the hands of several soldiers fell to the ground with a clang. Xu Yifan is determined to be in Dingge, and everyone knows it, but everyone is vague about how to Dingge. Replacing this dynasty, which has ruled China for more than 200 years, is too far away for soldiers to even imagine. It's more about obeying orders, and doing whatever the marshal commands. In the countryside of the Northland, it was not that no one wrote to the Praetorian Guard, urging their children to go home and not to rebel -- the common people under the feet of the central horses of the Qing court had such a natural insight.
Speaking of the current morale of the Praetorian Guards, on the whole, it is probably what is going on, loyalty and obedience are undiminished, and the enthusiasm for building and buying goods in the army is also very high. But there is a little less taste of mourning in North Korea, and the hostile spirit when it is difficult to save the country together! Many soldiers want to return to their hometowns in fine clothes.
But this court, which everyone is still a little afraid of, is actually going to sell North Korea! To sell the place where the Praetorian Guard started, it is equivalent to this court, denying all the glory and pride of the Praetorian Guard! It is also tantamount to denying the entire basis of the survival of the Praetorian Guard!
Dongxianling fought to the death against the Fifth Division, Suchuanli fought to the death, Anzhou fought to the death, and the light soldiers of southern Liaoning advanced at the risk of death. Not to mention the martyrdom of Lushun, Zhou Zhanjie, so many sailors and soldiers in Weihai who sank themselves............ The sacrifice of so many people has saved North Korea for the world and a little luck for this country. Now this imperial court wants to give away all these hands with both hands, and also disarm the 3,000 Praetorian Guard athletes who were born and died in Korea to suppress the frontier for the country?
There is no one who has lost his conscience!
Tang Shaoyi asked in a trembling voice: "Dashuai, is this true?" β
Lao Tzu didn't want to believe it, but they just did it! What's next? Announcing that our battle was fought in vain, and the good men of the south and the north died in vain for thousands of days? Arrest us all as thieves again? β¦β¦β¦β¦ Fuck, the court is Qin Hui, Lao Tzu is not Yue Fei! β
Xu Yifan roared like thunder! He stood there with straight crossed legs, took off his military hat, and suddenly burst into tears: "Zuo Guigui, Deng Zhengqing, Zhou Zhanjie............ My good boy who was martyred in the Praetorian Guard, his soul has returned, look at this dark world! β
"Dashuai!"
A soldier suddenly knelt down: "Great handsome! Take us north! Keep North Korea, arrest all those kings and babes, the big man is the emperor, take us to do it! After beating the little devils, it's not enough, these bastards who don't eat dogs have to be cleaned up one by one! β
Xu Yifan glared at him fiercely: "Get up!" The Praetorian Guard doesn't have a habit of weak knees! β
Before he could finish speaking, more voices rang out.
"Dashuai, it's the other way around!"
"If you hit Yanjing City, North Korea can't let it out! The bones of our brothers are still buried there, so that they will not be allowed to return to their homeland, and their ghosts will be uneasy for a lifetime? β
"Lao Tzu came from Nanyang, not to betray the country! Amazing, everyone fight again in North Korea! What the fuck the court! β
"In this war, it depends on whether these guys have done a little bit of personnel! Just because they were going to surrender last time, we should fuck back! β
The roar was mixed together and rushed to Xu Yifan, who was standing in the middle, this roar was like a huge wave, and it was about to hold Xu Yifan high! Everyone was emotional, and Ma Hongjun was still banging on the rice bowl heavily, tearing his throat and not knowing what he was yelling. Only Pu Yang stood beside Xu Yifan, his face pale.
Tang Shaoyi and Li Yunzong glanced at each other, Li Yunzong came out with a high spirit, and ordered loudly: "Lizheng!" β
All the officers and men of the Praetorian Guard immediately stopped their roars, snapped upright, and everyone stood up straight. Even the fat chef Ma Hongjun stood up straight and tried his best to accept his big belly.
"The Praetorian Guard is the Praetorian Guard of the Great Marshal, the Praetorian Guard of the country, not the Praetorian Guard of the imperial court! Discipline in the army, when is the noise allowed? Along the way, when did Dashuai let me down? Everyone returned to the army and continued to work. Wait for the day, just wait for the handsome to give an order............ We just need to follow the handsome Canglong Banner, and that's enough! Listen to my command, return to the construction site in a row, and continue to work while waiting for orders! β
From the officers to the soldiers, they turned around in unison, and the rice bowl was thrown to the ground. The sound of leather boots sounded neatly, infinite indignation, and it seemed to be revealed in the sound of heavy stomping. The officers and soldiers of the brigade left solemnly, and Xu Yifan just watched with his hands. In the blink of an eye, only the empty canteen remained.
Xu Yifan was silent for a while, and said lightly to Li Yunzong: "Yunzong, you cooperate well." Li Yun pursed his lips and just kept silent, but Tang Shaoyi took a step forward and continued to ask in a trembling voice: "Dashuai, is this all true?" β
Tang Shaoyi really couldn't imagine how stupid the imperial court that made such a decision was! It was because it was incredible that he couldn't believe it.
Xu Yifan looked at him quietly and said in a low voice: "When a family only wants to keep their wealth, they can't take care of the rest............ I'm shaking their foundations, and that's what they fear the most! Everything else doesn't matter............ Even if this move really provoked me to react, they didn't care, anyway, they couldn't command me, so it was better to look at the immediate ............ If I don't grasp this opportunity, I really wasted all the effort I have put into it, and I was born and died! β
He patted Tang Shaoyi on the shoulder, and his tone was finally a little relaxed: "Shaochuan, isn't there a lack of money?" Isn't it a sad year? I took this opportunity to help you solve it! β
This sentence finally lifted Tang Shaoyi's spirits, but she immediately looked at Xu Yifan suspiciously. If Xu Yifan wants to keep North Korea, it is difficult enough, what other way can he solve the current financial difficulties?
Xu Yifan smiled and didn't explain. Tan Sitong's sudden telegram made him shoot the case, and it also surprised and delighted him. Yuan Shikai's information made him prepared, but what really happened made him a little unbelievable. This court is indeed hopeless............ He came over to perform this play, and he rehearsed in front of the mirror for a long time, for fear that his performance would be too superficial and would not have a better emotional communication with the audience............ His overall performance today was quite satisfactory, but at some turning points, he was a little stiff and did not achieve good interaction with the audience. If Li Yunzong hadn't picked up the trick very well, it might have been a bit too much.
In fact, acting is just a last skill, and he is struggling to find a place where he can't exert his strength. Liangjiang's series of actions is to force this court to jump over the wall, and if there is any opportunity, he will take the opportunity to exert his strength. Unexpectedly, when Rong Lu died, the imperial court still pretended to be a grandson, dismissed the children of the Liangjiang Banner, and dismantled the Eight Banners system, and they didn't move there. Unexpectedly, such a play came in the end! Take this opportunity to integrate the interior and explore the bottom of the southern governors!
With the big picture in mind, it's time for them to take sides............ As for North Korea, he must keep it! There's no reason he'd throw this place to Sayben! To put it mildly, it is because the luck of the two countries is not changing, and to say that the Praetorian Guard is invincible and famous, and it is also Zhang Ben who can call the wind and rain in the two rivers. If the 3,000 Praetorian Guards were disarmed, what a huge blow would this be to his prestige and his great cause?
The only thing that made him a little puzzled was, why did Tan Sitong tell him this? If he wants to rejoin his banner, Tan Sitong's best choice is to return to the old place of Shanghai alone and use the Qing Times to announce it to the world. With this big gift, it is justifiable to come back. He just used the password to contact Xu Yifan before and sent such a telegram, but he didn't have the slightest intention of contacting and greeting, which is really a bit strange............ In the past, Tan Si was the same scholar, and Xu Yifan could see it clearly at a glance, but this time, it made him a little confused.
Xu Yifan is not an immortal after all, how could he have expected that history has changed so drastically. An earth-shattering storm is also brewing in the Northland!
He was thinking about his thoughts there, and in the dining shed, Ma Hongjun suddenly turned around and rushed inside like crazy, and several fire-headed soldiers in charge looked at him dancing in a daze, and finally heard him scream: "Clean up your things, I'm going to be a cook for Dashuai!" β
There are still seven days left in the ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~, which is the end of the year.
It's sad every year, but it's okay every year.
Shi Duo stared blankly at the imperial calendar on the table. Above the small table, there is only a pot of wine and two dishes, and the heat has long been gone. Sitting in the cold night, making a pot of wine and interrupting, the result is even more upset.
Even in the Qincha Xingyuan, you can faintly hear the sound of firecrackers from the sacrificial stove outside. Tianjin New Year's paintings are famous, and his Qincha Xingyuan is also full of Yang Liuqing's four-color overprinted New Year paintings, but in his eyes, not only does it not add a little bit of New Year's atmosphere, but it makes this Qincha Xingyuan Mansion more and more like a tomb!
Others are celebrating the New Year, but he wants to sign a peace agreement with Yueben on the day of the New Year.
This turbulent Jiawu year, after he signed it himself, it was even a draw. But what about next year? What will the weather be like next year?
He smiled bitterly and raised his glass to drink alone, it is better to go back, it is better to go back............ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tianjin, British Concession.
Hirofumi Ito's cough has decreased a lot. The attachΓ©s were overjoyed at his improvement, but Ito knew that he had burned almost the last bit of energy in his body.
Every day, he just lay quietly on the second floor, and at night, he asked people to open the window. Look at the bright moon in the sky that shines on the land of East Asia and the two countries for thousands of years.
He has a clear conscience, and has won the last chance for the empire in a desperate situation.
Then Xu Yifan, will he watch him snatch some luck back?
I don't know why, but Ito feels like he doesn't care about any of this anymore. He just waited for the peace treaty to be signed and then returned to Yamaguchi Prefecture.
What is the future, is the stage for new heroes and heroes............ It's better to go back, it's better to go back............
