Chapter 228 Railway Transportation Network

The three southwest roads of Longhua, with the surrender of the Southwest Army, ended in less than two months. This means that Xu Bin, who accepted the three territories of the revolutionary army, has now become the governor of the eleventh province of Longhua. The regular strength of his troops also reached the establishment of eleven main forces. Not including the other subordinate troops, the strength is naturally unprecedentedly stronger.

When facing the consuls of various countries, Xu Bin naturally does not have to endure in order to keep a low profile as before. Of course, this does not mean that he dares to arrogantly feel that he is invincible in the world. In short, while adhering to his principles, he undoubtedly has a lot more sharpness. This is also the reason why this time, after finding out that Caiyun Army has the support of the French United Nations behind it, Xu Bin will be particularly angry.

Just when the people of the whole country felt that the East China Army, which now has millions of lions, would launch a military operation to unify Longhua. Xu Bin didn't make any moves, on the contrary, the resources reserved in the land of the five realms were tilted a little bit like the newly reorganized land of the six realms. In particular, the railway construction that Xu Bin has always admired, began to use a large number of joint ventures to raise funds to carry out the development of large railways.

In the eyes of others, this may be a bit of picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon, but only Xu Bin himself knows that step by step is the most important thing. Today's East China Army seems to be strong, but in fact, it still has inherent worries. One of the biggest hidden dangers is undoubtedly that the life of the people of the newly ruled Daofu is much worse than that of the people during the reign of the original Xu Jiajun.

When ordinary people are loyal to someone or a certain party, what they see is whether their living conditions have been improved. As long as life is good, there is enough food to eat every day, and there is work to do, who will risk killing their heads to raise troops to rebel? Another reason is that Xu Bin hopes that his battle for reunification will be completed with vigor after it starts.

Only by crushing the opponent with absolute strength can it be possible to preserve the vitality of himself and Longhua. If you fight for a lose-lose victory. Xu Bin asked himself if this was not the victory he hoped to see. Moreover, the incident in the French Associated States is enough to show that these foreign governments only focus on their own interests.

For them, having interests in Longhua is the biggest premise. This means that once Longhua enters the reunification, unless Xu Bin is willing to give up some national interests to obtain the approval of these foreign governments. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for these foreign governments to intervene in the point of reunification.

It is precisely because of various considerations that Xu Bin, who knows that striking iron also needs his own hardness. There is no rush to expand the territory. On the contrary, it is still to adopt a steady and steady strategy and expand its strength step by step. As for the surrounding warlords, they will also worry about the future and accelerate the pace of army expansion, which in Xu Bin's view is also the beginning of their own death.

As the East China Army, which had its own industrial system, Xu Bin adopted the policy of hiding troops from the people and hiding wealth from the people to expand the troops. And around these governors. If they wanted to expand their armaments, they naturally had to increase the taxes on their ruling districts. The young men of the Forceful Race Hondo joined the army. This kind of oppression eventually leads to. It will be the government forcing the people to rebel.

Once these provincial governments cause chaos on their own, the East China Army will be able to clean them up in the name of quelling the chaos. If they accept foreign Shili funding and betray the interests of the state and the provincial government, as long as Xu Bin finds out, they will also be charged with traitors.

This kind of sitting back and waiting for the other person to make a mistake. Isn't the strategy of cleaning up again more suitable for the East China Army, which also needs time to adjust? As long as the main force at hand is not chaotic, Xu Bin believes that in a short period of time, he will not dare to compete with it. In that case, why rush to wage war for the sake of turf?

Xu Bin, who keeps a clear head at all times. The next military readjustment will be mainly entrusted to the staff headquarters that has been trained. He personally supervised the affairs of government affairs. At present, most of the chief civil affairs officials at the county government level have joined the People's Party, and the method of party management has been adopted to straighten out the affairs of the government as much as possible.

As long as the officials under his command are put in order, are you still worried that the people in the controlled areas will not support their East China Army? With the support of these ordinary people, who can shake Xu Bin's dominance? Although he doesn't like to engage in personality cults, Xu Bin has undoubtedly become the protector of many Longhua people.

In particular, the people close to the territory of the East China Army are looking forward to the East China Army coming over as soon as possible to liberate them, so that they can also live a relatively stable and peaceful life. This kind of anticipation will be expected for a long time, and I believe that unexpected results will be achieved.

Governments that have always been worried about Xu Bin's rise too quickly have seen that Xu Bin seems to be very satisfied with his current achievements, investing a lot of manpower and material resources to improve the situation of limited domestic transportation, and vigorously recruiting migrant workers to build railways.

This undoubtedly made countries earn a lot of profits, which is why many countries are worried about Xu Bin's rise, but also feel that this person can bring them rich returns, and have repeatedly tolerated Xu Bin's provocation of them. Of course, the French Union was excluded from the list of countries eligible to participate in the bidding this time.

The real big order was won by the three countries of Eagle Rice and Debang. Some other small countries in Europe and the United States have also received shares of various sizes. But no matter what, they all knew deeply that befriending the young governor of Longhua would have unexpected benefits.

Looking at the orders obtained by various countries, it can not only create a lot of wealth for their own countries, but also solve a lot of employment problems. The East China Army excluded the French Associated States this time, firstly, to warn all countries not to interfere in Longhua's internal affairs privately, which also shows that it is okay to make money, but Xu Bin's character is at the bottom line.

Second, I also hope that through this form of throwing money, countries will clearly support him Xu Bin, and they can also drink soup after him. In Longhua these years, they can be like the East China Army, and they can take out a large amount of cash to order things like them. There is no separation from this family, if they don't want to make money, then why bother to travel all the way to Longhua?

There is no doubt that interests are the most important link of communication and cooperation between countries at all times. Therefore, the French Commonwealth, which understood that there was no opportunity to cooperate with Xu Bin, began to work closely with the government of the Sun Country. Even the submarine that Yingmi and Xu Bin are currently cooperating in the construction of was also revealed to the government of the Sun Country by the French United States.

finally understood why their navy would have a completely annihilated Sun Country government in the Qiantang Sea. Naturally, the collection of submarine intelligence was increased, only while they were collecting information. Xu Bin also received information from the French Coalition that he was cooperating with two naval powers and deliberately leaked it to the government of the Sun Country.

For Xu Bin, who no longer has much interest in the self-ruled area, he directly handed over this information to the Yingmi government, and asked the Yingmi government to knock on the French Union. After all, Xu Bin is naturally very aware of the matter of a dog biting a dog's hair.

This kind of intelligence betraying the interests of the so-called alliance undoubtedly made the Yingmi government begin to deliberately alienate the French government. Originally, the two countries, which had asked the French Union to follow suit, directly drove all the cooperative engineers they sent out of the submarine project. Realizing this, the three military alliances that seem to outsiders to be the most unbreakable seem to have cracked.

Xu Bin, who wanted this situation, also reacted quickly, like the southern government under his rule, declaring that the people of the French Union were persona non grata. Their goods, naturally, are not popular things either. Therefore, the merchants of the French Commonwealth suddenly felt that they were a little difficult to move here.

Compared with the merchants of the French Union, some unique commodity markets suffered unprecedented losses, while the merchants of the rest of the European and American countries were smiling. Everyone knows that these things unique to European and American countries are still relatively popular in Xu Bin's territory. Now they don't buy the French Union's, they will naturally buy their country's. For a time, their market share has undoubtedly increased.

More of them are profit-based businessmen who decide who is good and who is not, and for the consuls and military attaches sent here by the domestic government, they can have a good relationship with Xu Bin, and naturally feel that their work in Longhua is very good. Having been praised by the domestic government, these consuls and military attaches stationed in Longhua will undoubtedly be more friendly to Xu Bin. Therefore, the expulsion of the commercial share of the French Union can be exchanged for further favor from other European and American powers, and Xu Bin feels that it is worth it.

With the start of the construction of the railway, the militia captains who were dispatched to various places and the new local officials were arranged. Some peasants whose families are very well-off, but who are young and middle-aged, undoubtedly have a job to earn a living. As long as they work on the railway line for a year and a half, their income is enough to build a house and buy a few pieces of furniture.

Therefore, some people in the southwest who seem to be unhappy can not survive, with the start of this railway artery from Gannan to the southwest, the poor people of the three provinces naturally respect the support of the East China Army.

As soon as the construction of the railway began, in addition to these migrant workers, it meant that the merchants also had a more convenient access to enter and sell. The southwestern merchants, who could only rely on water transportation and land transportation, undoubtedly knew very well how important this railway was to them. So much so that when the East China Army opened the People's Bank of China to them, it sold railway stocks. There is a situation where supply exceeds demand!

The railway, which costs hundreds of millions of dollars, has at least 55 percent of the shares of the East China Army. The remaining 45 percent will be allocated 20 percent to give business associations from various countries the opportunity to buy them. As for the remaining 25 shares, 10% were sold to the five merchants under the original Xu Jiajun. For the other 15 percent, the three provinces were given a 5 percent share.

So much so that as soon as the news was announced, businessmen from various countries and their own businessmen seemed to be as eager to buy as if they had a lot of money and no land to spend. If it weren't for Xu Bin's statement that the ownership of the railway must belong to the East China Army, I am afraid that the 45 percent equity released would not be enough for these businessmen who sat on the opening of the railway to buy it. In a sense, this also made Xu Bin see that the merchants of Longhua Kingdom seemed to be far richer and more likely to hide money than he imagined! (To be continued......)
