Chapter 148: The Opponent (6)

After some minor repairs and minor repairs, there were no more flaws in the eyes of the three commanders of the Navy in the Naval Memorandum of the General Staff Headquarters.

www.cmfu.com release" Well, that's the end of today's meeting. ”

Before www.cmfu.com released and walked out of the conference room, Hu Kra glanced at Liu Bailiang's sleeve.

www.cmfu.com release "how?" ”

www.cmfu.com release" What do you think of Hokkien dialect? ”

www.cmfu.com release "Hokkien dialect? Liu Bailiang was confused.

www.cmfu.com release Hook shrugged: "Nothing, have a drink together in the evening?" ”

www.cmfu.com posting" no problem, where to go? ”

www.cmfu.com post "My home." ”

www.cmfu.com release ......

www.cmfu.com Xianliang Temple, the residence of Duke Wuxian.

www.cmfu.com Three months ago, the Xinjun Wang's family was killed on the way out, and after Liu Yun ascended the throne, he gave him the mansion when he canonized Hu Ke as Duke Wuxian.

In the back garden of the www.cmfu.com Mansion, in the glazed pavilion, under the light bulb, two middle-aged men wearing military collars were drinking each other.

www.cmfu.com posted: "I'd rather have a three-bedroom apartment within the Third Ring Road." ”

www.cmfu.com released three times of drinking, and the slightly drunk Hook complained to Liu Bailiang.

www.cmfu.com release the "Three Rings? Liu Bailiang was surprised.

www.cmfu.com release: "Yes, the third ring of Beijing in our time and space, according to my salary at that time, it would take 50 years without eating or drinking, hahaha." ”

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang helplessly glanced at the lotus pond outside the pavilion: "Are we too extravagant now?" ”

www.cmfu.com release "Feel guilty, don't think so much, this is what we deserve, but other than that, don't use too many brains, once greed is indulged, the universe will not be satisfied." ”

www.cmfu.com released that Hu Ke's celadon wine glass for Liu Bailiang was filled with Moutai.

www.cmfu.com release night was quiet, and the pond was filled with the sound of fish flooding.

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang took a sip lightly: "Today you asked me about Hokkien dialect, what's going on?" ”

www.cmfu.com release" nothing

www.cmfu.com both men are unhurried and suave, but Hook's composure clearly comes from his essentially mechanization, and Liu Bailiang's gentleness permeates the subconscious softness, like the difference between the mechanical control of a computer and the natural response of a plant under the influence of genes.

www.cmfu.com release: "I want to sigh that the navy has become the world of the Fujian people." ”

www.cmfu.com posted, "I hate Hokkien. ”

www.cmfu.com released, the two looked at each other and smiled.

www.cmfu.com Release: "It won't be long before they march to the position of Minister of Defense and then Prime Minister." ”

www.cmfu.com release "Wishful thinking is not the attitude that smart military men should have." ”

www.cmfu.com release "They are no longer ordinary soldiers, to the navy and the people, they are simply god-like existences. ”

www.cmfu.com release" but we are outright atheists. ”

The copper incense burner in the corner of the www.cmfu.com pavilion is quiet and useless, without the interference of incense, and you can clearly feel the smell of lotus leaves and pond mud in the pond.

www.cmfu.com release: "I remember that it was twenty-two years, we were in the North Leaf Resort, and everyone went down to the pond to catch fish, and the fish they caught were grilled and eaten by themselves - it was the most fragrant fish I have ever tasted. ”

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang narrowed his eyes, as if the fish that had been eaten had been resurrected in the lotus pond just a stone's throw away.

www.cmfu.com release, "Hehe, remember, Zhong Xiahuo drank high that night, lit the grass shed of the resort, and overturned a security guard, if it wasn't for Captain Liu to protect him, he would have been fired long ago." ”

As soon as www.cmfu.com released and heard Zhong Xiahuo's three words, Liu Bailiang bowed his head and was silent, preoccupied.

www.cmfu.com release" yes, now mentioning the old clock, it's really sad. ”

www.cmfu.com release Hook didn't know Liu Bailiang's mood, and he didn't need and couldn't understand.

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang silently swallowed a few glasses and decided to change the topic.

www.cmfu.com released "Is the emperor really determined to enter the Gurkha at all costs?" ”

www.cmfu.com release" The emperor did not say so, he just said that the request of the king of Gurkha could not be refused. Hook blinked.

www.cmfu.com released that "the post road from Chengdu to Lhasa will take at least two and a half months, and from Lhasa to Zhangmu Pass and Yadong Port for more than a month, and the transportation will depend on mules, horses and even manpower. On the other hand, the British only needed to take a 10-hour train ride from Kolkata to Darjeeling, and it took another week to march from Darjeeling to Yadong. From Kolkata to Gorkha in Birgunj, it takes only 15 hours by rail, 6 days from Birgunj to Kathman, and another 6 days to reach the Zhangmu Pass. Even from the perspective of a local war, we cannot support a large-scale conflict on the Indo-Tibetan border. ”

www.cmfu.com released Hu Ke said leisurely: "As you said at today's meeting, it will be handed over to the Tibetan army to handle it." ”

www.cmfu.com release "What if the Tibetan army fails?" ”

www.cmfu.com release Hook spread his hands: "Isn't that the matter solved?" The local militia in Tibet who disobeyed the orders of the central government acted on their own, and the local government of Tibet was severely reprimanded by the central government, and everything was restored to the original state. ”

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang frowned and said: "Threatening the British with all-out war?" ”

www.cmfu.com issued "Tibet is, after all, China's territory, and the Gurkha is not British territory, legally speaking, our army's entry into the Gurkha is not an invasion of Britain, but if the British army dares to enter Tibet, it will be a naked invasion, and it is an axiom for our army to defend the country and defend itself and counterattack." ”

www.cmfu.com Release: "With the geographical situation in Tibet, the defense is still difficult until the transportation problem is resolved, and it is not enough to take the offensive. ”

www.cmfu.com release "Despite this, in the Second Tibetan-British War of our time and space, it took the British a full 9 months to reach Lhasa. ”

www.cmfu.com release Indeed, the 15th edition of the history textbook of another time and space records that in December 1903, the second British war of aggression against Tibet broke out. In August 1904, British troops invaded Lhasa. In September of that year, the British signed the Treaty of Lhasa with the local government of Tibet, which de facto turned Tibet into a sphere of British power, and the Qing government at the time refused to recognize the treaty, and the imperialist powers expressed dissatisfaction. After many negotiations between the Chinese and British representatives, in April 1906, the two sides signed the Sino-British Treaty of Renewal of Tibet and India, which in fact affirmed China's sovereignty over Tibet, but recognized many of the aggressive interests and privileges obtained by Britain in the Treaty of Lhasa.

www.cmfu.com released: "Of course, the Qing government in that time and space was powerless to defend Tibet, but was the Chinese Empire in our time and space strong enough to use Tibet as a springboard to attack South Asia? It would take us three or four months and a lot of manpower, animal power, and grain to get our supplies from the railway terminal to the Tibet-India border, while the other side would only take a week or two and consume far fewer resources than we do. Geography and traffic conditions dictate where we are. Why didn't we put a heavy army on the Mongolian side during the war against Russia, directly cut off the Trans-Siberian Railway, and turn hundreds of thousands of Russian troops in the Far East into dead fish? Because we don't have railways in Mongolia, we can't support the supply of heavy groups. Again, why did we have to go on the defensive on the north-western front at that time? Because our railway terminus is too far away from the war zone, and the other side's railway is almost built on the border, it takes us dozens of times more time and resources to transport the same amount of supplies by mule and horse carts than the Russians by rail. In contrast, we have built a relatively good railway network in the northeast, which can quickly and efficiently transport troops and supplies, and provide reliable logistical support for the million-strong army that has been assembled here one after another. On the continent of this era, the railway is everything! ”

www.cmfu.com release Hook shook the translucent and mellow liquid in the cup, and sighed: "With the current technology and national strength, it is simply impossible to build a railway into Tibet. ”

It will also take a long time for the www.cmfu.com to promulgate the spread of trucks and the road network, and it must be taken into account that many places on the Sichuan-Tibet border are still in a semi-primitive and semi-feudal state, and in the territory of the Tusi and the lords, the central government decree can only be effective in a small area along the post road and near the garrison. In the past 15 years, thousands of people have died because of the land reform and return to the river, four county governors have been killed in the Sichuan-Tibet border area within five years, and 680 military and police officers have died in the line of duty. ”

www.cmfu.com release "That's right...... If the serfs were to be abolished in Tibet, there would be a large group of leaders who would rebel. ”

www.cmfu.com release"* The lama is also becoming more and more dishonest, and in two years, the Mongolian Living Buddha has written three times, asking the central government to give him the right to perform affairs, obviously wanting to be the king of Tibet, and not taking the minister in Tibet in his eyes. ”

Since the www.cmfu.com was originally issued by the Qing Dynasty, all lamas who wanted to submit a letter to the emperor had to be submitted by the minister in Tibet, and the minister in Tibet could decide whether to forward it according to the content of the letter, so as to reflect the authority of the minister in Tibet as the central government's plenipotentiary in Tibet and emphasize the sovereignty and governing power of the central government over Tibet.

www.cmfu.com the release of the current 13th Lama's attempt to disregard the minister in Tibet and write directly to the emperor as the supreme power in Tibet clearly has ulterior motives.

www.cmfu.com issued "The Manchurian emperor did not agree to him, and our emperor had no reason to give him that power." Hook raised his glass.

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang raised his glass in response: "Stability first, we need a peaceful time, of course, not for drinking, for development, for the future, this country still has a lot of work to do, isn't it?" ”

www.cmfu.com release "Yes, work, long live work." That's a good fit for Hook — even if he's not a workaholic in the real sense of the word.

www.cmfu.com As for India, there is no need to send troops, only to aid their nationalists, give them money and weapons, help them train guerrilla commanders and cadres of the independence movement, as long as they persist in doing it for ten or twenty years, without us sending troops, the British will be disgraced even if they have not rolled out of the subcontinent, and their days will be running out." The same is true for Burma and Vietnam, where the cost to the colonizers is getting greater, and the more our adversaries lose in their colonies, the more opportunities we have to take their place. ”

www.cmfu.com release "Proxy Wars." Hook dug up a Cold War term.

www.cmfu.com issued "No, the great anti-imperialist anti-colonial war. ”

www.cmfu.com released Liu Bailiang smiled slightly, and swallowed the last glass of wine of the day with the spirit of a so-called revolutionary.
