After returning to the Tengyue Town Barracks, Yang Meng did nothing else, and first divided the seizures of the scientific expedition into categories. Map books or something, naturally, they were packed and handed over to Minghu Academy.

The book "On War" has become the first popular science book of the New Army, and every New Army must read and learn it, and this is Yang Meng's request.

There are soldiers and no generals, this is just a trivial matter for Yang Meng, there are so many new troops in Yunnan, let's fight slowly! There are always suitable generals who will stand out in the battles, and finding generals in the sea of blood is Yang Meng's way.

The generals who have experienced actual combat are the generals, and those who have learned it, Yang Meng can't trust it very much.

After sorting out the equipment of the British army, Yang Meng also drew some sketches based on his own experience, these are Ding Taichen's tasks, the equipment of 10,000 people, just next, let the Blue Flag Army try these equipment through actual combat.

"Get Du Zhenhu!"

Yang Meng has some things, and he has to explain to Du Jianhu, the people of the brigade can easily find out, I am afraid that the British side will send some scattered stalls, the map is a key thing, in case someone takes away the map of Yunnan, it will be a bad thing for himself.

"Third Master!"

"Hmmm! The soldiers in Tengyue Town are still doing their jobs, so let's learn more! It's not a place that hasn't been used.

After I'm gone, look for a few rooms. People who are very powerful, preach in the villages in the Tengyue area, you can let them walk around the building, and say that they eat the flesh of blonde and blue-eyed people. Yang, the children born are also exceptionally strong! And it can also heal!

Find a few god sticks and Lang Zhong, brag about it, and put this matter on the matter. Pass down the Tengyue border. The bigger the noise, the better! ”

Yang Meng did so. It's just pure helplessness, saying that to resist foreign obscurity, eight adults will not do it, if they come according to their own foolish statement, one counts as one, and the foreign devils want to come in casually through the Teng Crossing Border, then they will have to worry about their own lives.

"I know it!"

Explaining this matter to Du Jianhu can be regarded as pulling him. Ma Qinghu is gone, it is inevitable that Du Jianhu will not be convinced, and he will do something against the water.

Although Du Jianhu is not very good, his two elder brothers can still use one of them, because his own brother is connected, and Yang Meng does not want to kill the three tigers of the Du family.

"Let's go down!"

Du Jianhu, who was sent away by Yang Meng's words, was also full of regret, and he knew why he had to do it today! Ma Qinghu can lead 10,000 soldiers and horses out of the country when he returns with no qualifications, but he, the old man who followed Yang Sanye to quell the chaos, can only do some indiscriminate work.

It would be nonsense to say that Du Jianhu had no resentment in his heart. Thinking about the two brothers in Kunming, Du Jianhu clenched his fists and beat himself a few times. Then he disappeared into the barracks.

"Gather the rest of the mountain monkeys, you guys are ready to pack, and we will leave Tengyue today."

Compared with the great powers, Yang Meng is still too unfamiliar with his own territory, when he entered the mountain city, because he was not familiar with geography, he ran wild in the mountains for six days, compared with the so-called scientific expedition group of England, Yunnan was undoubtedly behind them in the drawing of topographic maps.

Now Yunnan can only be described by one side of the water and soil and one side of the people, although Yang Meng has let people build a road through Yunnan, but this road, only connect some big cities, to rush, the rest of Yunnan is still by the steep mountains and rivers, divided into a block of closed areas.

The maps of Yunnan are not important now, but the maps of Burma, Vietnam, India and Thailand, although some were captured from the scientific expeditions, but the accuracy of these maps is still not enough to support field warfare.

Kachin, Shan, and Mae Sai may all be battlefields in the future, especially Kachin, which is close to India and is the first choice for the second battlefield in England.

Not to mention the side of the Messe, going north from the Salween River, capturing Mengla, and breaking through the middle, this should be the first choice of the English.

Whether it is the first choice or the alternative, the border must not be broken, and once the border defense line is breached, then it will be a big trouble.

The Lisu led by Qiao Gunai, most of whom are located in the narrow strip from Kachin to Shan State, are undoubtedly the best border guards, and it has become a matter of necessity for mountain monkeys to survey the terrain of this narrow strip.

Sending the mountain monkeys over, Yang Meng also has a purpose, that is, to explore the ethnic group settlement in this area, since he is ready to support Qiao Gunai, Yang Meng naturally wants to fight for him some fertile and beautiful areas.

There are some things that are not suitable for Qiao Gunai's clansmen to do, and such dirty work can only be handed over to the mountain monkeys.

"Third master, the mountain monkeys have gathered!"

"Oh......"

After collecting his thoughts, Yang Meng reviewed his plan again in his heart, and felt that there was nothing missing, so he slowly paced out of the barracks.

"Your spirits are not bad! It's just that I don't know how Lu Dao is able, your leader Yang Ba has been sent out by the third master, and it's up to you next!

Whether it's a dragon or a tiger or a mule, I don't look at what you say, what I see is what you do!

I will give you a task, scatter the land, and help your fellow clansmen Qiao Gunai, survey the terrain from Kachin to Mae Sai, and see if there are those fertile and beautiful lands for your people outside to enjoy.

For a month, I am waiting for your news in Mengla, if you don't do well, this mountain monkey should be disbanded!

There is no requirement for how to do things, Lao Tzu only needs the result! ”

Excited about the mountain monkeys, Yang Meng didn't arrange specific matters, these people have their own uniqueness, and the arrangement is too detailed to be detrimental to their play, as for what to do, it depends on their ability.

After saying this, Yang Meng didn't give them a chance to ask questions, and took his guards and embarked on a journey to Mengla.

"Before you go out of Tengyue, be wary of Lao Tzu, don't be plotted!"

Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, this sentence Yang Meng is aimed at Du Jianhu, in the past two years, I don't know if this kid's backbone has been smoothed out, in case he is angry. Shoot your own black gun. It's not impossible.

Now is the critical time. In addition to his own guards, no matter which one he faces, Yang Meng is wary! Leading a large group of men and horses to deal with himself, no one in Yunnan has this ability, but it is possible to gather a few people to ambush him.

Ping'an Tengyue came out, and Yang Meng's heart became leisurely, from Tengyue to Mengla. There are no big roads, most of them are mountain roads of the horse gang, which are steep and abnormal, and some places can only lead the horses to go, and Yang Meng's leisurely mood is immediately gone, which is not a good thing for him.

"Send a message to Uncle Ding Feige in Dali, and ask him to immediately arrange for people and horses to transport heavy artillery to Mengla, one hundred and fifty guns is the lowest number!

Three men left their horses behind and marched to Mengla. Let Xu Ziwei survey the terrain over there and organize people to build a few military villages with earthen walls! ”

The mountain road is difficult. It is easier to defend, but the transportation of heavy artillery is troublesome, and it is your own trouble, from Dali to Mengla thousands of miles away, the transportation of heavy artillery is definitely a big trouble.

The English, if they take the Salween River, are only a few hundred miles by land, although it is not very easy to walk, but it is much easier for them to transport heavy artillery than Yang Meng.

Although it is a temptation, it is by no means to let England see how unafraid of death the people of Yunnan are, but to let England see the military strength of Yunnan.

The slightly better road is to ride a horse, and the mountain road leads the horse to go, one is to march quickly, and the other is to pity the horses, from Tengyue to Mengla, a group of people walked for twenty-seven days, and the average day is only sixty or seventy miles.

When he arrived in Mengla, Yang Meng asked the guards who were marching in a hurry, and it only took twelve days for them to run away, and it seemed that the horses were a burden here.

The newly formed Blue Flag Army has begun to run in and train under the leadership of Ma Qinghu, and if you look at the configuration of the Blue Flag Army, it is not too bad. There are also dozens of cannons, but for a 1,000-strong artillery battalion, these dozens of cannons are still a little too few.

"How's the construction of the walled city?"

After reading the preparations of the Blue Flag Army, Yang Meng recruited Xu Ziwei over, and the first thing he asked was defense.

"It's already under construction, and it will be completed in a dozen days."

"Is there any movement on the British side?"

"Sun Boqing is here, let him speak!"

"Hmmm! When I asked him to come in, I was just about to ask about the situation in Myanmar and Vietnam. ”

Calculate the time, as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke, the British army should have a month or two to prepare, starting a war, it's not that simple, the British army has a government behind it, they are not like themselves, whether to start a war or not, they have the final say.

"Third master, the situation here is quite stable, the British army on the side of the United States and Cyprus has not made any major movements, it seems that they are waiting for some news."

Knowing what Yang Meng wanted to ask, after Sun Boqing came in, he didn't say anything else, but first talked about the situation of the British army in the United States and Cyprus.

"Hmmm! Do you know how they came here? ”

"According to the news from Myanmar, it seems that it is an expedition to find a missing team. The group traveled overland and had no contact with the Burmese army. Since 20 years ago, after the First World War between Britain and Burma, the Burmese country was very afraid of the British army, and this time they were looking for an expedition, but the Burmese side did not refuse. ”

After listening to what Sun Boqing said, Yang Meng also roughly estimated the strength of Burma, I am afraid that it will be beaten by the British army, and now it is the policy of Burma to compromise.

"They didn't encounter any obstacles in their way?"

"It is said that there is, but it was suppressed by the King of Burma!"

"Hmph...... It's another place where a bunch of waste is in charge! What about France? ”

If you can't fight, you will admit it, this Burmese king is not much different from the court of the Qing Dynasty, in fact, then again, the leader of the Qing Dynasty is too cowardly, you have been convinced, don't you have to obey the little brother around you?

"There were few people over there, and in the name of an expedition, they shrank at Luang Nam Tower. This France is different from England, they are mainly engaged in trading and proselytizing in Annam, although the two are somewhat contradictory, but they are still not too intense. ”

Yang Meng thought that Annan was the world of France, but he didn't expect that these objects had not yet been moved.

"What is the situation in Annan?"

"It's better than ours! There was civil unrest everywhere, and the Annan court was even more rotten at home, and it was too busy to take care of itself! ”

"Hmmm! It's better, during this time, contact the mob of Annam, see if we can join forces, if it is too strong, try the way of King Annam, don't use the name of the court, call our own name.

Let Ma Qinghu prepare a thousand Blue Flag troops with British equipment, and I will meet the group of people in Lang Nanta. ”

France is Yang Meng's main target this time, and now it seems that the foundation of cooperation is stronger, from those missionaries of Minghu Academy, Yang Meng also has a general understanding of the current situation in France, this object is also an unlucky egg, in the battle for colonies, almost all lost, and now I want to reach out to Asia, but I dare not do it, it seems that the threat of England is not small!

War is only a means, cooperation is the goal, and the object of cooperation chosen by Yang Meng is not England but France.

When they arrived at Luang Nanta, the French expedition team was also well-behaved, and honestly handed over the collected information to Yang Meng, and Yang Meng did not disarm these people, but only ordered the equipment they used to survey the terrain, and then some military equipment of the French army, these things Yang Meng also had to study.

Yang Meng's attitude towards this French expedition was not bad, but he just ordered a batch of equipment from them, neither capturing them nor expelling them.

After seeing the equipment of Yang Meng's group, the French team leader, who knew the situation in the Southeast Peninsula very well, posted it warmly.

"Huh...... Don't worry, watch the show first! ”

Whether Britain or France came from China, the purpose of seizing the southeast peninsula is self-evident!

Leaving a meaningful word, Yang Meng left Lang Nanta with a neat and tidy army of one thousand blue flags.

The enthusiastic attitude of the French team leader is a good start. (To be continued......)
