Chapter 51: A Real Soldier
Regarding Lu Hong's analysis, several bigwigs present did not express any approval or denial, but Yang Shixiang asked a few more words, and then turned the topic to the topic, "Lu Yunjuan, I see that you are very concerned about the North Koreans, you might as well talk about it, how to solve the current situation, if I use this as an excuse to interfere in North Korea, what is the best way to deal with it?" β
In fact, at this time, all the bigwigs in the house are no longer racking their brains to consider this problem, and Yang Shixiang asked Lu Hong, so naturally he didn't have much hope, and even some of the meaning of Lu Hong in the school examination, this is not an easy topic!
Lu Hong is actually struggling with psychology at the moment, to be honest, this contradiction may not be out of the question...... It's just that if the problem of the North Korean royal family is not solved, in fact, the trouble caused by North Korea will obviously not stop, and what he knows about the riots of the Donghak Party, which will soon break out, is the real source of the turmoil in North Korea.
It's just that if he is saying this, he will really become a god, but at this time, he is doing his best and obeying the destiny of heaven, and he is not in charge, if he can let Xiao Yue intervene in the situation in North Korea later, this is also a good idea.
He raised his eyebrows, and immediately said, "Lord Yang, I have a home remedy, maybe I can give it a try...... Now it is estimated that it will be extremely difficult to get the prisoner out of the hands of Yu himself, but if it is done the other way, as far as I know, isn't this Park Yongxiao wanted by the North Korean royal family during the Shenjia Rebellion, if the North Korean king can pardon Park Yong-hyo and let this guy return to the country and do it for his officials...... You can even make him the governor of a place, and that's fine! β
Lu Hong's words immediately made several people present frown...... It's not that this method is bad, but because this method is too out-of-the-way, let the king of Joseon pardon an old minister who sent someone to assassinate him before, if this Park Yong-hyo really agreed, it would be really bizarre...... However, almost all of them thought that if this Park Yong-hyo was really willing to pardon and return to China, it would be really difficult for him to say anything, it would be a family matter!
Wang Renkan was obviously not very optimistic about Lu Hong's idea, and came out with a slight smile, "Old Zhongtang, this matter is too sudden, I think it is better to ask Yuan Weiting to tell the Korean king Li Xi, this way of taking trouble is not good for them at all!" β
Li Hongzhang obviously also has a headache about this matter, saying that his wolf ambitions, how can he not know that he has been watching for so many years, when he said that he took the Ryukyus by force, and tried to attack Taiwan in the south, fortunately Liu Mingchuan was in charge, which broke off his ambitions, but the Ryukyu Islands have been covered with water and difficult to recover, this Korean thing ...... It's really troublesome!
Later, he and Wang Renkan went to the backyard to chat alone for a while, while Lu Hong was waiting outside, after today's events, Yang Shixiang and Zhou Fu looked at him quite differently, and Yang Shixiang took him outside quite politely because he had business with him later, and especially took him to take a photo with Lin Taizeng.
To Lu Hong's surprise, in front of him, a petty officer of the sixth grade, Lin Taizeng, the general rank of the second rank, was very polite, and he also took the initiative to mention his experience of studying in the UK, which was quite enthusiastic...... After thinking about it, his back to this Wang Renkan's banner was quite a bit of a tiger skin and a big banner, and Yang Shixiang made an appointment with him to go to the martial arts academy in the afternoon.
At this noon, it is naturally Li Hongzhang's top priority to catch the wind for Lord Qincha, not to mention that the political transactions between each other in the morning are obviously very successful, but Lu Hong is not qualified to be on such a stage this time, and he waited outside until the afternoon, only then did he see Yang Shixiang come out full of wine and food.
After getting into the carriage of the Governor's Palace, Yang Shixiang asked, "Lu Yunjuan, are you going to go to Tianjin Wubei Academy, or are you going to recruit that person from Beiyang Naval Academy?"
Lu Hong had already thought about this point, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord Yang, this matter has been discussed with Lord Wang, let's go to the Martial Arts Academy!" β
The carriage went out along the south gate of Tianjin Wei, down the Baihe River, and it took only half an hour to hear the movement of the army in the distance, which made Lu Hong suddenly interested, Tianjin Wubei, this is the first modern military school in modern history, the school was established for ten years, and the training methods were learned from German instructors, but I don't know what kind of good soldiers I can pick here.
Next to Yang Shixiang actually didn't take Wang Renkan's organization of this accompanying Yong Battalion seriously, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, the Qin sent out to patrol, which was according to the specifications of a first-class officer, but Wang Renkan obviously didn't enjoy this pomp this time, he naturally didn't study this, and this Qin Messenger accompanied the Yong Battalion, but proposed to recruit people from the military academy, in his opinion, it was just a pure pomp, this way was to go to the Navy to supervise military discipline, not to fight......
When he arrived outside the school, he saw a group of solemn and majestic soldiers pacing back and forth with rifles with bayonets on them outside the gate...... And there was already a military attache here who came out to greet him, and Yang Shixiang personally accompanied him, if he hadn't seen Wang Renkan's face, who would have let him, a third-grade master, help him! And under Lu Hong's watch, this Yang Shixiang did things in an orderly manner, and several military attachΓ©s quickly went out to gather the students after receiving the order one by one.
This Tianjin Martial Arts Academy is a strong part of Li Hongzhang's military affairs, Yang Shixiang is obviously very familiar with this place, but he is very interested in taking Lu Hongyi to visit the command room, instrument room, repair room and other places one by one, and in the lobby, a thin and tall bald man with two beards and a few instructors hurried over.
"Lord Yang, just now I was patrolling the field, waiting for the late ...... It's too late! The bald bearded man laughed and arched his hands.
"General Yin's office is busy with military affairs, it's okay!" Yang Shixiang also looked polite, Lu Hong stood behind him, listening to the name of this guy, it should be the general office of the Beiyang Martial Arts Academy, but I don't know what kind of character it is, it stands to reason that it should be a little famous...... His eyes were sharp, and he immediately noticed that this person was always a little different from others, and he didn't even have braids!
Groove ...... This is a fierce man, he is so capable in this era, he actually cut his braids! However, he couldn't remember how there was such a person in history!
Yang Shixiang turned around, smiled slightly, and took the initiative to introduce: "General Yin Office, this is Lu Hong Lu Yunju, who is doing things for Lord Qinchawang...... Lu Yunjuan, let me introduce, this is the general office of Yin Changyin, who studied at the Berlin Military Academy in Germany in his early years. β
Yin Chang ...... When Lu Hong heard it, he did have such a number one person in his memory, and he was a rare talent among the Manchus, but the most famous thing about this guy was not his study abroad German [***] school, nor did he later serve as the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty and the Army Minister, and later served as the chief of staff and other high-ranking officials under Yuan Datou, but this guy's notoriously nerdy spirit!
In the history I knew, after the Wuchang Uprising, this guy was the Minister of War at that time, but he led the army to suppress it, but he was defeated and defeated repeatedly, and his qualifications at the German Army Academy were even more used as a joke.
However, today he is here to catch people, Lu Hong didn't intend to ridicule this full-man military attache with the halo of the Berlin Army Academy in Germany, he immediately arched his hand and said a few polite words, "Lord Yin, the people that Master Wang wants to recruit, please help me a lot!" β
Yin Chang's beard shook, crossed his waist and said with a smile: "Lu Yun's judgment is heavy, they are all doing things for the emperor, I have already asked the students to gather at the school ground...... Lord Yang, Lu Yun judges, please! β
When Lu Hong stood on the stand in front of the school field and looked at the team of students who rumbled into the field outside the school field, this kind of military scene made him feel a sudden situation, and Yang Shixiang obviously had the bad habit of speaking as a big leader in later generations.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am calling you today to recruit the brave battalion of Lord Qincha to inspect ......"
Lu Hong naturally didn't have much interest in this guy's tirade, he turned his head sideways and asked Yin Chang, "General Manager Yin, what subjects do the students in this martial arts academy offer?" β
He actually wanted to ask, there are two thousand people in the big school field here, wouldn't they all be some big-headed soldiers and illiterate, but, so if you ask, it is somewhat contemptuous, so he asked about this subject tactfully, but Yin Chang's answer still surprised him, "Lu Yunju, the students of the academy must learn basic subjects such as astronomy, public opinion, gezhi, surveying and mapping, and arithmetic, and in terms of military strategy, they will perform test gun and artillery formations, horse teams, infantry teams, artillery teams and marches, formations, divisions, offensive and defensive styles, etc." β
Yin Chang's answer made Lu Hong quite satisfied, it seems that he should not have come in vain, the two muttered and talked for a while, only then did they hear Yang Shixiang's speech come to an abrupt end, and then Yin Chang went up and muttered a few words, nothing more than words of encouragement and encouragement.
When it was Lu Hong's turn, his speech immediately thundered, "Dear students, I have been ordered by Lord Qincha Wang to recruit these 50 places in the Yong Battalion, however, I have said it first, if you come to my camp, you may not be able to make a fortune, you may not be promoted, you may be asked to die, and you may be worse than dead...... The only thing I can guarantee is that here you will become a real military man! β
