"Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the Boer Transvaal Republic wishes to hire our troops to help them fight the British, do you think we will agree?" Wang Guorui asked.

Hu Wei immediately said: "I think we can agree, because this will not only gain some benefits, but also dispel the fear of the British in our army." Our army is currently very afraid of the British, after all, the British are still the world's most powerful country, and our army naturally has a disadvantage. We defeated the Spaniards and the Dutch, but neither of these countries was a powerful country, they were some second-rate countries in Europe. And we have not yet fought against first-class countries, and the self-confidence of the soldiers is not too strong. If we face these first-class countries in the future, the soldiers' hearts will definitely be worried. As long as we can send troops to defeat the British, then we can all gain confidence in the future. Because of the confidence of the army, the army can dare to fight against the first-class countries in the West. ”

Hu Wei's meaning is very obvious, that is, he hopes that the army can fight the British. As long as they can build confidence by fighting the British, then this will also allow them to see that foreigners are "paper tigers" and can be defeated. Therefore, Wang Guorui also hopes that through this means, those soldiers will have the confidence to fight against the first-class countries in Europe. At present, what Taiwan's armed forces lack is not weapons and equipment, but confidence, which is something that cannot be seen or touched. It's like being bullied by an adult when I was young, and I was often bullied very miserably. But when he grows up, through years of training, his strength is actually no less than him, but at this time, the person who was bullied did not have the confidence to fight against the person who had bullied them. Even if he knows that his strength is not weaker than them. They don't dare to do it easily.

If there is no battle and let yourself know that your power is actually no less than theirs, then the person who is bullied will not do it easily. This is true of a person, and the same is true of the army of a country. So if you can send some troops over, and then let them see that Western devils are also carrying two shoulders and one head, and they are all the same as themselves. You can completely defeat the other party, so you will definitely be able to gain a lot of benefits in this way. In this way, their own troops can have the confidence to confront the first-class Western powers, so that they can go against the Western devils.

"Well, Hu Wei is right, you should send troops to fight. This will allow them to solve these problems of confidence in the army. If the army is not given the confidence to fight the enemy, then I am afraid that we will all face the loss of confidence in fighting the British. It is also a very necessary choice to build confidence as soon as possible. Otherwise, when we fight them next, we will naturally lack confidence, and it will definitely be very unfavorable to us. Only let our army see that those European countries are also paper tigers. This will allow them to dare to fight against their Western people, and not to stay here and be afraid. Wang Guorui said approvingly.

However, if someone agrees, then naturally there are people who oppose it, because it is definitely not possible to send troops abroad.

Yao Wendong said: "Lord Wang, I don't agree with this. If we send out troops, I'm afraid that if we are discovered, we will really have a hard time explaining it. We send our regular army, and then when the time comes, once our people are exposed. Let those foreign devils know that we have sent troops to support the Boers, then they will definitely come to us for trouble. Moreover. We are also suspected of interfering in other people's internal affairs, so it is certainly inappropriate for us. Generally speaking, countries do not interfere in each other's internal affairs, although this is just a joke, but everyone's appearance must be maintained. The Transvaal Republic is still nominally a British colony, subject to British rule. Although the Transvaal Republic had become de facto independent decades earlier, British rule was in name only. But. After all, they did not formally establish their own state, so they were still nominally colonies of the British. If the British attack them, it can actually be called 'quelling the rebellion', so we really have no reason to send troops to intervene at will. ”

"If we intervene, we will definitely face the risk of being discovered. We can't expect the British to fail to find out. This is impossible. There are always casualties in wars, and once there are casualties, it will definitely be discovered that we have begun to interfere in their internal affairs. Therefore, in the international arena, it is we who interfere in their internal affairs, so we must have been caught by someone. When the time comes, we will be the first year of junior high school, and the foreign devils will also be the fifteenth, and then they will all be able to interfere in our internal affairs, and then use various means to invade our colonies, and even directly interfere with us, we will have a basis. Of course, although this is an excuse, it is the reason why we cannot effectively prevent the enemy from interfering with us at the present time. ”

Wang Guorui also took the initiative to agree with this statement, because if someone catches a sore foot, then people can use this as an excuse to disadvantage themselves in the future, which is definitely not good. At present, Taiwan's strength has not yet been able to confront the entire Western world, so it must be temporarily compromised. Therefore, it is not possible to actively expose yourself to interfere in their affairs. If the regular army is sent directly over, it will certainly face great political risks. If you take such a big political risk to interfere in the past, it will definitely be in your own disservice. This is something Wang Guorui doesn't want to encounter, and the political risk is too high.

But if we don't go, how can we build up faith?" Hu Wei asked.

Yao Wendong also immediately said: "Then who will bear the political risks here, and can you afford it?" ”

However, Wang Guorui continued: "You don't have to argue, I have my way, you listen to my way." ”

"We can't send regular troops to fight, but we can send our mercenaries! Don't we have a lot of mercenaries? They are hunting the natives, and we can choose some of them to go out to the Boers and let them fight the British. These mercenaries have been fighting in the mountains and forests for a long time, and they are already very familiar with guerrilla warfare, so they don't actually have anything to do with it. And these mercenaries are only mercenaries, not our regular army, and we can send them out. When the time comes, foreigners come to question us, and we can completely excuse ourselves as mercenaries. As long as their mercenary identity is exposed, it will not leave us too much political risk, after all, mercenaries are a group of people who fight for money, not good people, so we can send mercenaries to fight, so we don't have to worry about any political risks. ”

"In addition, those mercenaries are actually not good goods, many of them are ruffians and hooligans from the country, and they belong to the unstable group of people. If we let them go to foreign countries to fight foreign devils, it will also be a very huge improvement for our public security environment. ”

After listening to Wang Guorui's words, everyone also felt that Wang Guorui's hand was really good, not only avoiding too many political risks, but also solving the security problems of some mercenaries. These mercenaries are all ruffians and hooligans, and their disruption of law and order is very huge. These ruffians and hooligans will definitely not be able to give birth with peace of mind, they just like to do this kind of bullying thing. And if they don't go out to fight, they will definitely have a serious impact on the surrounding security environment. The military discipline of mercenaries is certainly inferior to that of the regular army, and it is impossible for them to be directly required of the discipline of the regular army. And although they don't dare to commit crimes under the control of the representatives of the army, such as killing people, they don't dare to mess around, but there are too many things like stealing chickens and dogs, not giving money for food, etc., and they are simply overwhelmed.

And the Taiwan side is not yet able to deal with them according to the methods of the regular army, because if the law of the army is followed, it can be shot at all. However, they were not regular troops, so naturally they could not be dealt with by such harsh means, and they were not under the jurisdiction of the regular army, and the regular military courts naturally could not shoot them directly. After all, they are still ordinary people in legal status, but they have chosen to become mercenaries because of their professional factors. It would be great if they could be sent on missions abroad.

When the time comes, when they go to a foreign country, the local security environment will be much better. In addition, they are not good citizens, and sending them out on a mission not only does not cost military salaries, but also saves costs. If they die in a foreign country, it will not be too heart-wrenching for themselves, because there is no need to give pensions, and maybe the magistrates in charge of the peace will applaud and applaud, and these scourges will finally die. Coupled with the fact that even if they are caught, the political risk is not great, this is a very good choice.

"Okay, let's go and select a group of mercenaries right away, let them go to fight, and then we can go to Africa to fight instead of our regular army. Try to let our army see that these foreign devils' armies can't even defeat our mercenary parallel army, so they will naturally have the confidence to fight against foreign foreign devil armies at that time. Wang Guorui said. (To be continued......)
