Chapter 572: Five Billion Land Vouchers
Baikal region, Ulan-Ude.
For the Khalkha Mongols, the battle was over, less than two hours, as short as autumn in the steppe.
But for the officers and men of the Qin army, the prelude to this great battle lasted for two months, and it was the most anticipated decisive battle in the whole of Transbaikal. But the Russians are too anticlimactic.
Even if the Russian cavalry in Ulan-Ude City hit a bag in front of the Qin army's front, the bloody scene in front of the battlefield clearly showed the strength of the Qin army. But the so-called Transbaikal Cossacks couldn't even rush in front of the Qin army front and force the infantry to bayonet each other, so it can only be said that there are few warriors.
The barbed wire fence that stood in front of the front line didn't do much.
"Enough artillery, rifles and heavy machine guns that can kill people and horses a mile away, more intensive firepower, more accurate shooting. No matter how many Russian cavalry there are, they will end up in ashes in the face of this kind of force. Dalma said with emotion. The glory that belonged to the cavalry, it really ended. ”
The Battle of Bali Bridge was just the end of the cavalry myth. Now is the end of the cavalry era.
Dalma looked at the frightened expressions of the crowd behind him, and only prayed in his heart that his own people would understand this more. Don't think about the glory and freedom of the past, his father-in-law is Prince Yi Zaiyuan, the thirteenth son of Emperor Kangxi, Aixin Jueluo. Yinxiang's fifth grandson, his ancestor Celing was named Prince Zasak by the Manchu Qing Dynasty because of his contribution to helping the Qing court quell the Erlut rebellion, that is, the Prince of Khalkha and the King of Chaoyong, and the hereditary replacement, and the successive generations also won the honor of Shangzhu (marrying the princess as his wife) twice. Dalma's hereditary princely family. When it comes to his feelings for the Manchu Qing, he is definitely the highest value group of people in Outer Mongolia. However, when the Qin army entered Outer Mongolia, he was one of the people who led the surrender.
When the 3,000 cavalry of the 1st Cavalry Division took advantage of the victory to pursue. When he crashed into the chaotic military formation of the Russian army, the battle came to a complete end. Former Prince of Saiyin Noyanbu. Che Linduanduobu, who is currently the deputy director of the Outer Mongolia Civil Affairs Department, sighed lowly: "It's over......"
A young man in a short coat not far from Dalma and Chelin Duandob was still very entangled at this time: "This is the end?" How should I write this war chronicle? I can finish it in a few words. Hey, I knew I wouldn't take this trouble......"
On the other hand, Dalma's fifteen-year-old son, Nayantu, said depressedly: "Why is this happening? The Russians also have guns, why is there such a big difference? "In the past, the Russians in Baikal bullied the Outer Mongolian tribes, but this is not how they did it.
There were not only one or two Han Chinese reporters who came to Ulan-Ude, but there was one who followed Chelinduan Dobu, and it was also the foreign affairs correspondent of Ta Kung Pao in Kulun. casually continued: "With guns and no morale, what kind of elite soldiers are they?" Lao Maozi has been besieged in the city by the official army for two or three months. Morale has long been drained. Ten percent of the combat effectiveness can be left with five achievements, which is good. ”
Nayantu was silent for a while, then leaned over to his father Dalma and whispered, "Abba, I want to enter the Han Academy. Abba, you can help me speak, I'm going to Beijing......"
Sungkyun Public School, Nayantu doesn't have to think about it. But now in the city of Beijing, the aristocratic public school is not just a chengjun. It's just that Chengjun's specifications are higher, and there is a prince.
The battle report in the Baikal region was quickly sent by the Qin army from Kulen to Zhangjiakou. Then go to Beijing. It's time for the wax moon. It was about to be the New Year's Festival, and with the big victory, the government and the opposition, both inside and outside the imperial capital were beaming.
If it weren't for the resurgence of the battle for Yili in Xinjiang. Skobelev's first attack on Erie failed, and the Russian army saw Gongchen City, and the energy of the entire army was about to be bad. It was at this time that an urgent report from Almaty came from the rear - the Qin army in the south of Tuschi made a major attack. Although Skobelev still had a heartbeat, he was forced to retreat to Almaty with his army.
Although Skobelev drew the cavalry of Central Asia. Preparing war supplies, the attack on the Erie Valley was again launched in November. When it's snowing and icy. Those old Maozi and the Central Asian cavalry didn't seem to know what the cold was, and now they had reached Gongchen City, and there was a fierce battle on both sides.
If the news of the great victory in Xinjiang comes, the Manchu civil and military forces will really be able to live a peaceful year.
……
ZN Sea, Baoyue Building.
The eldest princess Liu Mengyao, who is nearly twelve years old, tilted her head, clasped her palms, and looked at Mama Wang with a pitiful look.
Fifty-five-year-old Mama Wang pursed her thin lips and said with a very resolute attitude: "Eldest princess, unless you get the warrant of the queen's mother, of course, the emperor's can also be, otherwise even if you have the signature of the princess, the slave will never dare to let you out of the palace." ”
Liu Mengyao took off the sunglasses that could cover half of her face, and said with a sad face: "Mama, I just want to show Sister Qin this last time, I won't make trouble." ”
Mama Wang was not shaken by Liu Mengyao's 'crying and mourning' at all, and shook her head firmly: "The queen has a will, and you are not allowed to go to Uncle Huo's mansion today." If you really want to go to Grandpa Huo's mansion, the eldest princess, you have a grudge against the slave and the maid, and you want to watch the slave and the maid being beaten into the cell. Mama Wang didn't understand why Liu Mengyao looked down on Grandpa Huo's three sons-in-law so unpleasantly, how to say that she was also a rising star in the army, but when she met the eldest princess three times, she was teased and disgraced.
This is the day of the engagement of the third lady of Grandpa Huo, and the queen specially gave instructions to Baoyuelou that the eldest princess is not allowed to take a step out of the palace, otherwise be careful of her skin.
Mama Wang didn't dare to disobey the queen's will.
"Then I won't go to Sister Qin, can Mama let me out of the palace? I'm going to the fair! ”
"Celestial Princess, you can stop today. Grandpa Huo's third lady is just engaged, not married. If you want to see her in a few days, you can see her at any time. Besides, even if the third lady is married, you can also see her when she comes to the palace to pay tribute to her mother during the New Year's holidays. If you can't do it, let's go to the door, and no one will stop you. Today is really not good. The slaves didn't know why the queen gave this death order, but the slaves didn't dare to disobey half of the queen's order. Liu Mengyao's personal palace maid took the crystal sunglasses and said so.
Liu Mengyao slumped her shoulders, and she vaguely guessed a not-so-good result in her heart. "Amitabha, God bless, but don't be what I think......" Now after listening to the words of the two closest elders, he was careful and his liver was jerked.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Great Qin, who is still twelve years old, is not yet in the season of Sichun. But Liu Mengyao, who has been pampered by Liu Xian since childhood, has the gene of 'fighting unevenness' in her bones. Sixteen-year-old Huo Guangzheng's third daughter, Huo Qin, as the cousin who is most compatible with Liu Mengyao, had a different heart before she was 'forced to marry' by her father. This is also the biggest reason why Liu Mengyao directly looks at the rising star of a certain army, not to mention that the age difference between the two is ten years, the latter not only has a son at home, but also a concubine, the only flaw is that Mrs. Zhengfang died of illness two years ago.
In Liu Mengyao's eyes, such a marriage match itself is absolutely unsuitable and unsuitable. However, because of this incident, Liu Mengyao's mother, the queen mother of the Great Qin Empire, suddenly felt the need to choose a wishful husband for her daughter as soon as possible.
She will never let Liu Xian manage this matter. After more than ten years of contact, she is really afraid of the 'wonderful ideas' in Liu Xian's mind, sometimes it is too deviant. With Liu Xian's love for Liu Mengyao, if it was time for Liu Xian to choose a horse for Liu Mengyao, he really didn't know what was going to happen.
Of course, for Liu Xian at this time, as a father whose daughter is less than twelve years old, there is absolutely no idea of 'choosing a horse' in his mind. There is nothing to say about Huo Guangzheng's choice of choosing a son-in-law. At this time, there was no soil for freedom of marriage in China. The order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker are the right reason.
Liu Xian is now looking at the budget for the railway from Zhangjiakou to Kulun. The railway is not very difficult, but due to the sensitive geographical location, the land it passes through seems to have no other goods other than wool and leather, and the stimulating and promoting effect on the economy is simply not comparable to that of the railways in other regions. It would not be enough to raise funds for such a railway in the market, so Liu Xian simply decided to have the government fully fund the construction. The entire Zhangku Railway stretches for more than 2,200 miles, with a total budget of nearly 1 billion yuan.
It took more than three hours to read the entire report. Liu Xian approved the word 'read' on it.
Putting down the pen, Liu Xian pinched the root of his nose, and his eyes were sour.
Even if the 1 billion yuan budget is to be completed in five years, the annual budget expenditure of 200 million yuan will add a heavy weight to next year's budget and fiscal deficit.
The capital saved when fighting the world can be almost reimbursed. The largest resource that remains in the hands of central and local governments is land. It's not the land inside the Kansai, it's the land outside the Kansai.
The Qin army is now in the millions, and over the years, veterans have been retired, and a considerable part of the land in the hands of the government has been spent on this aspect. Just three days ago, at a cabinet meeting presided over by Fan Debang, Liu Xian put forward a very "constructive" proposal -- to exchange double, triple, or even five times the land area outside the customs in exchange for the arable land in the soldiers' hands.
Fill the border with soldiers. I want to build the Corps and develop the Great Northern Wilderness during the Red Dynasty.
This amount is tentatively set at three times the land area of Kannai! As a strong measure, it was extended to the military. Liu Xian still can't estimate how the army is reflecting. Anyway, scolding the mother must be indispensable.
"Your Majesty." Before Fan Debang spoke, he habitually bowed his waist slightly to Liu Xian, and then straightened up and said: "The battle in the Northeast is coming to an end, Heilongjiang and Jilin have become hinterlands, and the value of large tracts of land has increased sharply. Huaxia Bank has communicated with some large investors in the state bonds, and many of them have expressed their acceptance of the exchange of government bonds for land in the Kanto region. ”
This is the water cloud pavilion of the zn sea, Liu Xian is taking advantage of the good sun today to bask in the warmth. The Vanderbang is here.
"So what?"
"Huaxia Bank is ready to issue 5 billion land vouchers ......" (to be continued......)
