Ding Yi's Struggle (8)
Qian Chujiu, who was full of depression, soon went to Paris, and Cao Jixiang, who came to see him off, found that the little fat man actually did not have any sadness of being degraded: "I feel that for a while, I can't see Zhao Di, and my heart is not happy." Nothing else. Qian Chujiu dangled his folding fan in the port and said to Cao Jixiang.
"For Lao Cao's sake, for the sake of sacrificing your life to save you, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth and please Princess Anna, that's absolutely right."
Cao Jixiang couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly when he heard it, is this forgetting after the fight?
But I heard Qian Chujiu say in a low voice: "In the end, the boss himself paid 300,000 taels, if this thing is not appetizing, why did the boss come out with such a big head?" Moreover, if you really don't want to send money to Princess Anna, then just let Venice send the money to Smyrna, anyway, it's a secret agreement, what's the change? β
Cao Jixiang listened to a spirit, at this time Qian Chujiu had already surrendered his hand to say goodbye, and with the support of the guards, he got on the boat, and while walking, he screamed: "The boss is really ruthless this time!" It's all pumping on the waist! It's not a spanking lesson, it's a spinal cane, you know? Beat Young Master Ben as a prisoner! This is ruthless! β
He doesn't mind other people's jokes at all, and he doesn't care at all that others know.
Because Ding Yi is not available, he can let Ding Yi free up to teach his juniors, I'm sorry, it's just this ridiculous Ninth Young Master.
But at this moment, Ding Yi has no time to pay attention to Qian Chujiu.
Yu Qian had already arrived in Crete, and before he went to Smyrna, he was basically united by Yao Kui.
It's not just a matter of determining the capital, it's because Ding Yi has made strategic rules and is ready to seize Asia Minor.
So it's fine. Yu Qian sprayed another thing: "Chen San did this. Not a truth! β
Yu Qian blamed that in Asia Minor, thousands of iron horsemen roamed the country. With the lethality of rifles and mortars, and the mobility of cavalry, Chen San continued to capture one city after another, large and small. Yu Qian is not a soft-hearted character, nor is he a pedantic scholar who convinces people with virtue.
You must know that he also besieged the Beijing Division first, and just lost hundreds of thousands of elite Ming in Tumubao, Yu Qian dared to fight against Ye Xian, and also won that battle, so that Ye Xian had to retreat to the grassland. His accusations. It is believed that Chen San's strategy is wrong, and it is inappropriate to do so.
"If Rujin wants to make the capital of Smyrna and seize the land of Asia Minor as its territory, this tactic is a big mistake!"
"This is Wei Huo's plan to expel the Xiongnu, not the Great Song Dynasty's strategy to collect the Northern Han and Southern Tang Dynasty."
Destructive, Chen San's approach, is too destructive. Because Asia Minor has its own civilization.
From the beginning of the Roman Empire, Asia Minor began to be Hellenistic, and the Begaemon style existed in various cities.
Other words. Asia Minor is not a nomadic concept, it has its own cities and spheres.
Therefore, Yu Qian compared it to the Northern Han and Southern Tang in the early Song Dynasty, these cities were civilized and included in the rule. It is the income of financial resources, military resources, etc., Chen San robbed, killed, robbed, and killed in a circle, and in the end, he even got these cities. It's just a ruin.
Ding Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, because he was also helpless: "There are not enough troops!" β
This is a fatal problem. After the battle, there were no soldiers to defend the town. How to do it?
"Du Zhanzhi is reluctant to use the Foreign Legion; San'er is not good at governing the world. Ding Yi was very distressed and poured bitter water on Qian.
"It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice!"
Yu Qian is in charge of military affairs, and he was speechless for a while when he listened. Because this is a matter of fact, it is not something that he can solve after spraying Ding Yi. In other words, spraying white spray will not help.
However, after returning to Smyrna, Ding Yi had to pay attention to this issue on his own.
Because Chen San's murderous nature is really too heavy, the war report is up, as well as the reports of the republican organization's personnel in the army, all present a problem, that is, in the past few months, there have been several small cities that have been slaughtered by Chen San and turned into empty cities, yes, they are empty cities, men and women are directly taken away, the old people are killed, and the property is robbed.
It is said that the city where the Virgin Mary spent the last days of her life, Ephesus, was killed by Chen San tens of thousands of people.
Ding Yi looked at it, so he had to ask Liu Ji to write: "Call San'er back." "If you don't come back, you can't do it, if you go on like this, kill Asia Minor into a no-man's land, even if Ding Yi takes it into his hands, what's the point?
"Ceuta was handed over to the Mediterranean Fleet to be stationed, by Governor Huang Xiaoyang; Wang Yue and Li Bing led the first division of Rong back to Smyrna. β
And when Chen San led the cavalry that had grown to more than 10,000 people, as well as 40,000 or 50,000 young men and women, and the squad returned to Shimai, Ding Yi was a little helpless.
In good conscience, Chen San is enough, three thousand iron horses came over, and the ones that were collected later were all cold weapons, and in just a few months, they could be called 100,000, right? If you can't say how hard you can fight, how can you do it? Besides, in addition to ammunition, the basic supply is self-care, that is, to feed the war with war.
"San'er go to the Americas." Ding Yi decided to tell Chen San the truth, because there was no need to beat around the bush, although Chen San was only a few years younger than him, he really felt like his son, "Over there, Wan Xunji has not made much progress, and you also know that Liu Zijian is tired to death there." β
"I'm thinking, I still have to go there, you arrest the military, and let Wan Xunji get the civil affairs side right."
"The import of rubber and grain will have to be increased, and you must know that we still have many fierce battles to fight on this side of Asia Minor."
"Your way of fighting is not suitable for Asia Minor, I believe that you can fight it down, and give you a few years, but after the battle, this side will become a tribe. When the time comes, it will have to be rebuilt like the grassland outside the Guanwai, which looks like the cost of war is low, but the cost of reconstruction is too great. β
Chen San scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Sir, you are still the same as before." San'er understands your hard work, this matter in the Americas, you can rest assured, the people's governance will be handed over to Xunji, and I will only take care of the military. Sir, San'er has embarrassed you and gone to the Americas, you watch, I promise not to teach you to be embarrassed anymore! β
Ding Yi patted Chen San on the shoulder, and then gave him a hug.
Chen San is definitely not simple, how can a foolish person stay in Guanwai Town for so many years? Yu Qian sprayed him, and he vaguely knew about it. Originally, I was thinking about how Ding Yi would tactfully expose this matter, or suppress it and not mention it. But I didn't expect Ding Yi to say it directly, it was the same as more than ten years ago, patiently explaining to him what the problem was.
That's why Chen San said that Ding Yi was the same as before, and he would not change or be suspicious of him because he became the emperor.
So the military layout was in the Americas, with Chen San leading the iron cavalry of the 3,000 Duyin tribes over, and he left behind the 10,000 cavalry captured and requisitioned in Asia Minor. These untrained soldiers, if they can fight locally and cross the ocean to the Americas, will be a drag.
In the Americas, there are still two regiments of the Rong 1st Division, both of which will be commanded by Chen Sanyi.
Yao Kui's side also set the basic government framework, Liu Ji drafted the edict, and Ding Yi saw that the seal was used correctly, that is, Chen San was promoted to the rank of major general, and then the governor of the naval and land military of the American Military Region; Wan An does not have a civil official title, because this part has not yet been discussed, but the ministry is clear, that is, the Governor of the Americas Special Administrative Region sea and land civil affairs; In addition, with the chronology of the Ding family's shop, he was the shopkeeper of the excellent wooden bone Dushu branch, and he was appointed to the official school of the household department of the American Special Administrative Region, specializing in food and salary. In addition, prosecutors, police chiefs, justices, and other relevant officials will be dispatched.
"Zhanzhi, if you can't get past this section, I'm afraid that this side of Asia Minor will not be easy to perform." For Du Ziteng, Ding Yi also had a headache. Because Du Ziteng is very good in military affairs, and it is okay to govern the people, but this person's narrow nationalist thinking is strict to the point of pathology, according to what he said, if he is given a regiment of Chinese soldiers and a regiment of blacks, then he definitely does not want that black regiment: "Because at least the disciples have divided a battalion of Chinese soldiers to prevent the coaxing of this Kunlun slave regiment!" β
Just reached this Cheng dΓΉ, Ding Yizhen didn't know how to say it.
So he couldn't, so he had to transfer a brigade from the 1st Praetorian Division, plus the Knights Hospitaller on Rhodes, and after Du Ziteng reorganized and trained, he was stationed in Rhodes, Crete, and Cyprus as a strategic reserve. And it is obvious that Du Ziteng is happy with such an arrangement, especially after the second batch of military households who immigrated to the country, basically turned the island of Cyprus and Rhodes into the territory of the Chinese.
And when Ceuta handed over to Governor Huang Xiaoyang, Yang Shan also returned to Smyrna, the capital of the Ding Ming Empire, and Ding Yi found that Yang Shan, an old immortal, had married a few concubines! So much so that Ding Yi couldn't help but say to him: "Sigong, you have also lived a rare life for seventy years, and you still have to focus on your body." β
"Your Majesty, it's not what it used to be, please be cautious." Yang Shan was not happy when he heard it, and directly choked, "If the minister is old, why do you summon the ministers to return thousands of miles to discuss the dynasty?" β
Ding Yi is naturally not easy to talk about, after all, as he said, this is not what it used to be, the status and identity are different, and Yang Shan's own private affairs are not easy to manage too much, and he can't talk too deeply.
As a result, on the fifth day of Smyrna, Yang Shan went to bed with a newly accepted concubine.
Ding Yi was really ridiculous when he heard it.
However, Yao Kui's side finally made a charter, and the Ximing Empire was divided into three major regions, one was the Special Administrative Region of the Americas, that is, the entire Americas except for modern Canada; One is the Mediterranean administrative region, with Crete as its capital; One is the administrative region of Zhili, with Smyrna as the capital division, and the scope is the entire region of Asia Minor.
"In this case, Poseidon is ready to fight for a hundred years?" King Louis XI of France, listening to the report of his subordinates, asked with a frown. Because these three administrative regions have one thing in common, that is, large areas of land, which have not been conquered. (To be continued......)
