Chapter 395: Annihilating 100,000 enemies and moving into Little North (9) The Northern Expedition is imminent
"Before the Northern Expedition of the Son of Thundercloud, in order to summon comrades, the leader Hu Nuxiu Qiyuan decided to send the patriarch out to declare the republic, in order to show the importance of the Son of Thundercloud in this matter. Our leader, Robo, is the son of the thunderclouds and the first 124 people, and he also proclaims the republic to Odo. After three years of fruitful results, Oduo was convinced of Luo Bo's wisdom and invited Luo Bo to be the head of Otto Academy. ”
"After the defeat of the Northern Expedition, Luo Bo was still able to lead the rest of the party to Odo, and I am afraid that they are all related to today!
- "Thundercloud Restoration Record: The Biography of Luo Bo"
"Odo, located on the island of Little North, opposite Rinaldo, was built by a small anti-tax mob, and is a cancer of Marcy. After that, the thunderclouds were born in vain, and the two tumors were combined, which was a big trouble for Ma Xi. ”
"Why did the two tumors meet? Because among the thundercloud fanatics, there is a rogue named Luo Bo, who rushed to Odo, and with his three-inch tongue, he was actually the head of the academy. ”
- "The Past of Ma Xi: The Chronicles of the Thundercloud Maniac"
When he handed over the report of his experience to Odo to the messenger to transmit it, Luo Bo was still a little apprehensive in his heart, he hoped that the headquarters of the Son of Thundercloud would affirm his merits, but he also did not want the headquarters to send personnel to Odo to snatch control of himself.
Fortunately, what Luo Bo was most worried about did not happen, the headquarters did not send anyone with status over, and what was sent was just a group of stunned young people who had just joined the Children of Thunderclouds, who came here to "assist Luo Bo in his work".
Objectively speaking, Luo Bo's work in Otto is extremely good, he has made some achievements, and has the qualifications of "founding 124 people", and those stunned young people have only recently joined the children of Thundercloud, and there are no people with backgrounds, so they all admire and obey Luo Bo's work very much, and Luo Bo quickly gathered them under his hands.
"Am I out of the title of 'basic unit'?" Something called ambition first appeared in Luo Bo's mind when he realized that he also had a wave of people under him, "then the most important thing at the moment is to establish my basic plate in Odo and accumulate more strength." ”
Now that Robo has married the people of Wathenton, let his son marry the daughter of the other party, and he can be regarded as taking root in Odo, which is much better than the people parachuted in from the Son of Thundercloud.
Since then, Luo Bo has successfully developed many students in the Otto Academy under the banner of promoting the concept of republicanism, and has been recommended by himself to enter the Son of Thundercloud, cultivating many cronies.
In this way, two years later, the storm rose again, the contradictions between the major warlords in the southern region of Maxi accumulated to the peak, and as the Moss Andor family shouted the slogan of returning to Rinaldo, a new round of tragic fighting began. With the start of a new round of scuffle, the first thing that will affect Otto is this year's protection fee, and now the Warlord Rinardo has asked Otto to pay it in advance this year.
When the news reached Odo, Washnton quickly called an emergency meeting to discuss it, and then the various councillors quarreled in Parliament.
"Who knows how long they can stay in Rinaldo, and now that they have paid it, what if he is beaten away? What if the new warlord arrives in Rinaldo and asks us to pay it again!"
"If you don't pay, if the other party calls, won't Odo lose his autonomy! Not to mention the loss of autonomy, as long as the other party blocks the port and cuts off trade, what will the citizens of Odo do!"
"Then restore the position of Mr. Louis Liuting and let him lead the troops again! Odo's autonomy is based on these respected gentlemen of Louis Liuting, not your protection money!"
"Louis Liuting re-leads the troops? Not to mention that this guy is almost eighty years old, is his brain good to make two statements, and letting Louis Liuting reinstate is a betrayal of the republic! The blood of his father's generation has been shed in vain!"
"Be quiet, everyone, be quiet," now Elder Odo, Wasardton, knocked the table, temporarily halting the debate among the members of the Parliament, "I would like to give the floor to Robo, the head of the house. ”
"He's a foreigner, why is he speaking here!" Before Luo Bo could speak, a member of the Louis Liuting faction took the lead in stealing the conversation, and focused on the identity label of the other party's "foreigner".
In the face of this malicious provocation, Luo Bo was unmoved, when he first came to the academy, he was treated like this several times, Luo Bo was used to it, so he followed his own steps and continued the topic.
"You should be well aware that although Odo is now relying on protection money to maintain self-government, this is only a stopgap measure, not to mention the unification of Marcy, as long as there is a hegemon like the Moss Andor family fifty years ago in the southern district, instead of such a chaotic situation, this special and short-lived autonomy will eventually be broken. ”
Some of the councillors were silent, and Robo was telling the truth, but some of them retorted stiffly: "We can fight in Alessin, we can fight further inland!
There are not many people who agree, and today's Otto is no longer the Otto of more than 40 years ago, and the councillors present now have been pampered since childhood, and few are willing to relive the glorious past of their ancestors hiding in the Alesin Wasteland and persisting in the War of Resistance.
Seeing that most of the councillors echoed him, Luo Bo continued: "So Odo should be friendly to a force in the Southern District, and I think that the Son of Thundercloud is a very suitable force for goodwill. ”
With a few cold snorts, Luo Bo knew that there must be a councilor who wanted to refute, so he didn't give the councillor time to speak, and quickly continued.
"Nowadays, the other warlords are hereditary regimes, only the Sons of Thundercloud are the same republican system as Odo, we have a common language on this point, and the goal of the Sons of Thunderclouds is to unify Marcy and not to dominate the South, so we will not go all out of our way to Odo, so that's all I have to say, please think about it. ”
After saying this, Robo left the council, and a few days later the members of the council discussed the results, and Otto refused to pay the protection money in advance before Rinaldo decided the victory, and for the son of the thundercloud, a symbolic gift of assistance as a show of goodwill.
It was done! The ecstatic Luo Bo personally escorted this aid to Finsun, the base of the Children of Thunderclouds, which was not an easy task, and the only port that Odo led to was Rinaldo, and if he wanted to smuggle through Rinaldo, he had to work hard and deal with it, and he also had to guard against the raids of troops and robbers along the way.
Fortunately, after some twists and turns, Luo Bo finally succeeded in his mission and sent aid to Finsun, which was the first time that a main city-level force had given assistance to the children of Thundercloud.
When Hunu Xiu Qiyuan received the good news from Luo Bo, he was overjoyed and "canonized" Otto as the "Second Republic" (the first was Finsune) and promoted Luo Bo.
Luo Bo accepted the promotion of Hu Nu Xiu Qi Yuan, and the two began to reminisce enthusiastically - in fact, there was nothing to talk about, and Luo Bo had little contact with Hu Nu Xiu Qi Yuan. At this moment, Sununggiozhen suddenly arrived and interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Otto is on the other side of the port of Rinaldo, right? Robo, this batch of aid headquarters is not needed, and it will all be used as naval funds for you. I am going to appoint Theoti Enzian as the Admiral of the Son of Thundercloud, and you, as his deputy, will take a break and go to Otto to form a navy, and after the Northern Expedition begins, you will support the Son of Thundercloud at sea as a navy. ”
Hu Nuxiu Qiyuan's face suddenly fell: "What kind of navy can the navy have? How many uses can the navy have? Now that the great cause of the Northern Expedition is about to take place, and there is a shortage of funds, wouldn't it be too wasteful to invest funds in the navy at this time!"
Luo Bo hurriedly lowered his head and made a humble appearance, Hunu Xiu Qiyuan was the leader of the Son of Thundercloud, and Sunungio Zhien, as the leader of the Son of Thundercloud, was not something that Luo Bo could afford to provoke.
"Why is this navy useless? Forget it, you don't know how to fight, and it's useless to tell you about the navy, pick something you can understand, let Theotsienzian go and form a navy, and cooperate with Odo, which can not only strengthen the friendship with Odo, but also promote the alliance with Odo, understand?"
The word "Bahu" instantly came to Luo Bo's mind, thinking about the relationship between Siunungio Zhien and Hunu Xiu Qiyuan, Luo Bo felt that it was very bad to go on like this.
Then Luo Bo also began to hate Siun Geozhien, this guy sent someone he didn't know, who came to Otto, didn't he come to grab meat from his pocket?
Hunusichiyuan and Sunungio Zhen quarreled, and the two ignored Luo Bo and quickly convened a general meeting to discuss the matter, but the result was that Sununggio Yen's idea was implemented.
In this way, when Luo Bo returned to Odo, there was another person by his side, Theoti Enzhian.
Teozien was recommended by Siungeozhen to join the association, and his qualifications were very shallow, and he was labeled as Siungeozhen. The family is a small aristocrat in charge of Finsunn fishing, and he obviously has a set of ship technology, and when he chatted with Luo Bo about naval construction along the way, Luo Bo was speechless.
When Theotsienzian first arrived at Odo, Robo was a little worried that he would take away his inheritance, but after seeing his attitude towards Odo, he was quickly relieved.
Because Theocienzian is extremely arrogant, he can't see it when he only looks at Luo Bo, the "founding 124", and when he faces the locals, his arrogance is suddenly revealed.
He laughed loudly at Odo's existing "navy", claiming that Odo's "deserve to be a turtle in the countryside, and can only make the achievements that a turtle should have", and he did not think that those ships were navy at all.
This greatly offended the local nobles and the sons of Thunderclouds, you must know that Luo Bo pulled the children of Thunderclouds here, many of them were born locally, which made Luo Bo ensure that he could still control the inheritance. Theocienzian was able to cooperate with Odo to build a navy, thanks to Luo Bo's cooperation in it.
Otto does have the ambition to build a navy, after all, to prevent the landing on the other side, a navy is needed, and now Teotsien Zhian can bring his own funds to build, and it also saves Otto a lot of money and technology.
And I have to say that although Theoti Enzian was extremely arrogant, he did have arrogant capital, and with the funds he brought, under the circumstances of various backs of the local nobles, he quickly put the construction of the Odo Navy in order and developed day by day.
At this time, the news of the Northern Expedition came, and Lei Yun's son Yi Nonggio Zhien was the commander of the whole army, and Juan Xiying was the deputy commander, leading the Northern Expedition of Finsun.
When he heard the news, Luo Bo's brows jumped suddenly, not because he was nervous about the Northern Expedition, but because among the commanders of the Northern Expedition, there was no name of Hu Nuxiu Qiyuan.
