Chapter 286: Xiao Shanzi has joined the army, and the big battle is about to break out!
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, 1868 has arrived.
January was supposed to be winter in the Northern Hemisphere, but in Baja California, it was still warm as spring, not only because the northern Rocky Mountains blocked the cold air from the north, but also because of the oceanic climate, which naturally couldn't be cold.
Speaking of the ocean, it is natural to talk about the important port of Baja California, that is, the capital of Ballas, this seaport city is now developing well, not only is it a seaport, the sea is developed, and there is also a railroad here, which is simply unbelievable, many local residents have a very high opinion of this railway, but in fact...... Everything that should be repaired on the Empire's side has been repaired, and there is nowhere to repair it.
But when it comes to railways, they have a very good function......
"The spring breeze blows! War drums beat! Who are the warriors of the empire afraid of! ”
"Comrades! Responding to Grand Leader Clint. The call of His Majesty Li I! Unite! Fight bravely! ”
"Soldiers and civilians of the Empire! Let's unite in Clint. His Majesty Lee I xià as the chairman of the Civic Party around! Fight the reactionaries of the United States of America to the end! ”
At this time, the whole beautiful harbor city of Barras is even more beautiful, because among the blue sea and green mountains, there are many fiery red colors, which are the flag of the empire!
There is a national flag, on top of which is a big star and three small stars around it, there is a military flag, a red base and then two crossed rifles on it. In short, it's all red, and it's really called a sea of flags!
To put it simply, the flags flutter and the gongs and drums are noisy...... Oh well. In fact, a lot of cars are pulling orchestras. When you get to a place, pull a section. Then the propagandist went up and cheered him up.
What is this doing?
Barras is basically a military station now!
Yes, it was the railroad that was used to transport troops, and the Empire had gathered a large number of troops here, many of whom were new recruits to the army.
So it seems that this big war is about to begin?
So why gather soldiers here?
It's strange that this is La Paz and not a frontline, even if it's a seaport, you can quickly transport troops to Mexico. But didn't all the Empire's railroads reach Mexico?
Why assemble here in La Paz? Wouldn't it be better to ship it straight over? The cost will be much lower!
But Li Mengyang is now using La Paz as a military station, and his decision was voted on by the Supreme Council of the entire Civic Party...... This committee is actually the previous committee of people's representatives, and then it has absorbed a number of elites.
From that point of view, what Li Mengyang has been doing recently seems to be very strange......
Strange is strange, but the whole order is reasonable and legal, there is no problem, then you have to do it, as a soldier, just obey it. But among these recruits......
"You kid, why are you so tanned? Did you suffer a lot? I've sued you before. Being a soldier is not so easy, don't you believe it! I told you to go to college earlier, you kid just don't play hard......"
"Mom! You know, I'm not a student! I knew I would be able to vote when I went to college, but I really wanted to sleep when I saw a book......
In the sea of red flags in La Paz, there is a shade of a tree, where there is a Chinese lady in a low-key and elegant tuft, who happens to be talking to her son, but the relationship between the two is ...... Because this noble lady is so young, they don't seem to be like mother and son.
"Hey, Xiaoshanzi, it's not your fault, it's me who didn't educate you well with your father, and your father always told me that he couldn't live up to your parents under Jiuquan." The lady felt a little sad as she spoke.
"Mom! Don't be like that, my dad was good to me, really! What, if you want to do this, then I'll go, if it is known that I will chat with your mother, especially your mother's identity...... "That 'son' is in a hurry."
"Oops, didn't you kid tell me who you are?" There was something strange about the lady.
"Mom, I'm ...... Actually, I know that the people above probably know, but my comrades-in-arms I didn't say, really. "This 'son' isn't stupid.
"Hey, good boy......" said this, in this tone, it really doesn't fit the identity of this noble lady.
Why?
Because this noble lady is none other than the queen of the empire, Huang Rong, how old is she this year? But twenty people!
So this 'son'?
Of course, it's Xiaoshanzi!
Xiao Shanzi joined the army, and it should be said that this is a good choice for him. You must know that he calls Li Mengyang his father, so he naturally calls Huang Rong his mother, and the other Yelena and Fiona are all Erniang and Sanniang, if you want to say this title, Li Mengyang didn't say it, and really treated him like a son.
However, such a relationship is actually invisibly a pressure!
Xiaoshanzi really told him, he is not a scholar, but now that the empire has been reformed, then if you want to vote, you must make a certain contribution to the country, either become a soldier, or you go to university, of course, there are other ways, but that is higher than these two requirements.
A person who calls the emperor his father, he does not have the right to vote, can this work?!
Therefore, Xiao Shanzi was very wise and resolute and enlisted in the army!
"Xiao Shanzi, your father can't come to see you off, don't think about it." Huang Rong's words, that must be said.
"Mom! I know! But though, I want to ask, is his father okay? It can't be true...... That's what I'm worried about. "That little mountain is also a sincere person.
"Giggle......" Huang Rong really couldn't help it, because his husband pretended to be sick this time...... It's too good to load!
"Xiao Shanzi, don't worry, your father is fine."
"That's good!"
"I'm here to send you on behalf of your father."
"I'm not a child!"
……
Let's put it this way, a woman in her twenties, even if she is married and has children. But with a boy who is not ten years younger than her. Speak in a mother's way. If this was in the future life, it would be hard to imagine, but now, Huang Rong has no other feelings at all, because this age difference is simply too normal in this era!
However, what about Li Mengyang's guy still pretending to be sick?
Yes, His Majesty, the Emperor of the American Empire, for most of the year. He didn't leave the hospital, and the basic mountain is the hospital as his home!
Isn't that too much?
Don't say it, there are many people who think Li Mengyang is a bit too much, such as Huang Rong and the other two.
"You said that you are not an emperor in the palace, but in the hospital, what kind of system is this?"
Anyway, roughly, His Majesty the Emperor is often squeezed by his own wife...... Li Mengyang also understands that this is all about hoping to live a harmonious married life, but it's just the current situation. I really need him to stay in the hospital, it's a very important thing anyway.
……
talked to his queen's mother. Farewell, Xiao Shanzi's heart is really warm, he is now also a soldier in the empire, of course, his identity cannot be concealed, so now he has a military rank, and he was given a platoon for him to carry.
This has been the case since ancient times, and Xiao Shanzi is no exception, but he really kept it a secret from his comrades-in-arms, and didn't say these things, and ah, just today, Xiao Shanzi is going to Mexico by boat with his comrades!
It's to take a boat from La Paz to Puerto Vallarta, this route is really very familiar, this is how Mexico came before, and now, the target is not Mexico, the target is El Paso!
Yes, the Empire's strategic plan has not changed much, or is it ready to open the gap from El Paso, and then fight deep into the United States, and now ......
In that case, it is too much to say that you are gathering in La Paz, right?
But it's really a must-have procedure......
Let's not talk about the grand strategy, Xiao Shanzi followed the troops on the ship, so it is naturally impossible for these recruits to be quiet.
"I said Zhou Tou, the woman you saw before, good guy, so beautiful! I'll be honest, I didn't see it too clearly, it's a little far away, but that body, that skin, oops, it's really a ......."
This is a soldier.,Sometimes it's more unscrupulous to chat.,The person who spoke is not young.,So what kind of meat joke hasn't been told?
But Xiao Shanzi, he has to scruple about it!
"Shut up! I sue you! Others can say it, but this one definitely can't say it! Don't blame me for turning my face! "Xiao Shanzi, this is really for the sake of war friendship, so can the queen talk nonsense?
"Okay, I'll not say it, hahaha...... But, Zhou Tou, I don't have any other ideas, you see what we are going to wear in the future, is this thing worn by people? ”
I saw that this young recruit took out something from his equipment.
This thing is round, but there is a rim on the side, like a hat, if it is from the afterlife, it will definitely scream, isn't this a steel helmet?!
Yes, it's a steel helmet, but this steel helmet.
"It's green!"
Of course, it's green, the same color as the military uniform, but who on the Chinese side doesn't know what it means?
Cuckold! The key is still a steel helmet, isn't this equal to 'iron green'?
The cloth hat used to be acceptable, but now, hey, it's all iron......
If you want to say, there is no way to be sincere, there are many people on the Chinese side, their concepts are still the same as before, and it is not easy to change this.
"What's wrong with the green?! What's wrong!? Why can't we wear it?! Look at me! "That little mountain is really good, I put it on at that time!
"This, didn't you marry your mother-in-law Zhou Tou......"
Well, I have to say, these guys are quite picky, but not ......
"What are you afraid of? The Emperor's ...... His Majesty has promulgated a law, and the law protects military marriages! Besides, Brother Wang, you don't seem to have a wife, right?! Besides, this steel helmet was invented by His Majesty! ”
“ALL-HAIL-LEE!” His Majesty the Emperor has come out, and he must shout slogans!
Xiao Shanzi's words are really powerful, and he looks like a platoon leader.
But in fact, most of the Chinese people still have a little pimple in their hearts, and there is no way, things under the millennium must be changed...... It really takes time.
This is just a small turmoil, and the point is that many soldiers don't understand the benefits of steel helmets, and they will understand when they get to the battlefield, but ah, when these recruits arrived in Puerto Vallarta, something bad happened! (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you for your support! Thank you very much! So why is Trump's current polls very hanging, this thing, in fact, the black car has predicted the US election this time in the book, hehehe, now it seems that the black car's prediction is a tragedy, but but, in fact, the black car predicted the far-right to come to power, and Trump, he is really more right-right than Rand, this ...... If you have a chance, the black car will talk to you about it. Thanks a lot!
