Chapter 163: Piercing the Qing Dynasty 14

"Lord Shao, Lord Tang, Mr. Liu, Long Yang, Long Yang, Wang has lost his welcome, and I hope the three of them will not be surprised!" In his camp, that is, a temporary wooden house, he met with the dignitaries of Baodao who came to visit him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Liu Fu, the family member, bought a house for the two and a half adults in advance, but he felt that he could eat and live with the majority of officers and soldiers, and he could better understand the relevant situation of the Jin Hans.

Moreover, he was not familiar with the local situation in Xuanlong, and if an Assassin came to visit him in the middle of the night, he was afraid that he would ......

Not to mention anything else, if the little chicken is scared, what will happen to the two delicate and beautiful shipwives around her?

Shao Youlian, the governor of Baodao, greeted with a smile: "General Wang is polite, I am fortunate to see it today, the general is really dignified, extraordinary, dedicated to his duties, and strict with himself. The subordinates are neat, energetic, well-equipped, well-trained, and truly a mighty and majestic division! ”

This person is the number one leader of the island, and he is in charge of administration, military, supervision and other powers, which is equivalent to the governor.

The greatest "merit" of this uncle's life was that on December 22, 1894, he and Zhang Yinhuan were both ministers of the Qincha and sent to Japan to beg for peace!

"General Wang is really a hero out of a young man, returned from a study tour, served the imperial court, and formed a fleet, the ships are strong and the guns are sharp, the formation is awe-inspiring, Tang and others admire it until!" Tang Jingsong served as the political envoy, with the same rank, equivalent to the vice governor in charge of wealth and affairs, but he was only second.

After the Japanese army landed on Treasure Island, this senior soldier, who vowed to fight the local army to the end, gave up his promise without hesitation, and fled to the other side of the ship with a huge amount of money disguised on a German steamer......

They are equivalent to the parents of Treasure Island, and their final behavior is not as good as most stepfathers and stepmothers!

A guy who looks like a monkey brother has a martial temperament, and finally spoke in a broken official dialect: "The general is proficient in Tao strategy, and it is strictly forbidden to govern the army, Liu has been in the army for decades, and he is ashamed of himself. ”

This is Liu Yongfu, who led the Black Flag Army to defeat the French army, and was "rewarded" by the imperial court.

He himself is an official who is the post of the second rank of the general soldier, and the old lady ...... Galeries Lafayette gave a large plaque with the word "blessing".

However, the Black Flag Army under his command has been abolished over the years, and now there are only more than 300 people, less than one battalion (505 people).

After a trick of rising and descending, the old Liu Tou, who is nearly sixty years old, has become a veritable commander of the light pole!

"The chief soldier is serious, and it is the heart of a child to protect the family and defend the country. Now that foreign troubles are rampant, and the country has no peace, the seven-foot man has no hesitation and throws his pen from Rong! "Damn, what Lao Tzu said is so heroic, I almost believe it!

Li Jingsong, who knew Tongqi, saw so many foreigners coming ashore with great fanfare, and the leader was the second-grade master appointed above.

Knowing that things are big, his official position is relatively humble, and he can't hold it down, if there is a change, it is difficult to escape his responsibility, so he immediately repairs a book, and he is the master and the second master.

Vice Admiral Wang alone had as many as 12,300 officers and men on the 16 warships of the fleet under his command, and the army shook out more than 10,000 "golden Hans."

The imperial court approved the naval division and land battalion, counting ten battalions of men and horses, and the total number of people is only 5,000, and now the army alone is twice as large!

After some greetings, Shao Youlian took a sip of iced tea, and when he saw that the other party's demeanor was quite kind, he asked: "General Wang, with all due respect, according to what you saw in the lower camp, your soldiers are probably far more than ten battalions, right?" Could it be that the scale of the expansion is allowed on the excerpt......"

"Lord Shao misunderstood, the superfluous people are miscellaneous servants, responsible for heavy logistics and trivial matters, and our army has no pack horses, so we must recruit more young and strong laborers. Such a trilogy has long existed in our Qing Green Camp and various departments. What's more, whether it is a soldier or a warship, I Nanyang will bear the expenses together, and the imperial court and the treasure island Minzhong will spend half a tael of silver, so you don't need to worry! "Lao Tzu directly blocked your lower road, see how you can find fault?

Shao Youlian was not embarrassed, but vaguely said: "Oh, that's the case, that's Shao Mou's worry, General Wang still hopes to forgive me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Jingsong asked again: "General Wang has many foreign soldiers, but he is so obedient, Tang doesn't know the mystery?" It is also necessary to ask the general for a word or two. If I have renew friction with foreigners in the future, I will be prepared! ”

The implication is that if you say that the land is too full, and the Taixi cattle under your command cause trouble, you will be slapping yourself in the face!

There is also a meaning, if these big men are instructed by others to infiltrate the treasure island, you will have to bear full responsibility.

This product is directly bottomed out, it doesn't matter, the deity will tell you: "Lord Tang is not from the army, and it is not surprising that he doesn't know something." What is a soldier? He who takes obedience to orders as his vocation! If you disobey orders, you will be a soldier! If it is untrustworthy, how can it be courageous? How can a group of people who go back on their word, are greedy for life and fear death, protect their families and defend the country? According to the following, those who do what they say must do what they say and what they order to prohibit can enlist in the army. Otherwise, even if he blends into the camp, he will be an opportunistic, lazy villain, and at least he will harm the people and corrupt military discipline. If it is heavier, he will flee from the battle, and the country will be destroyed! ”

Talking about responsibility, mission, and loyalty with you people is a waste of time, playing the piano to the cow!

As for the rest, the deity is a knife, and you are a fish, and Lao Tzu can chop it as much as he wants!

"General Wang's words are generous and loud, but they are really heartfelt, Tang has been taught!" Tang Jingsong really doesn't want to be taught a lot more by this junior

Shao Youlian is no longer entangled in military affairs, but makes a fuss about currency: "General, Shao still has something unclear, Li Tongzhi and his own official, and the officers and soldiers of your department use a kind of Western bill when purchasing goods locally. Merchants go to the yamen with bills to exchange for silver, and the yamen has to go to your ministry to exchange for silver taels. This matter is complicated, and the cycle repeats itself, and I am afraid that there will be a bad pool! ”

"That's right, I don't have two styles of silver in circulation in the Qing Dynasty, only a few silver ingots of Western standards. The amount of merchant bills is small, and it cannot be exchanged for one kilogram, or dozens of taels, so it is summarized to the yamen before it can be discounted. After the yamen liquidation, the amount of bills is large, and it is more convenient to exchange silver ingots at our department! ”

The chicken didn't say that they would be given a 5% rebate on the total amount, and they couldn't control how they divided it.

You have let out so many tasteless farts, the young man of the second cargo has heard enough, and he has something to say: "Two adults, my naval warship needs coal very much, but for many days, there is a huge gap in the supply tonnage, and I have heard of locally produced coal, I don't know why?" ”

The port of Gulong is already small, and you can only refuel two warships at the same time, so you are still very slow.

If the sixteen warships of the entire fleet are all full, and a week has passed, why can't there be a war?

Lao Tzu's battleship was originally a group of "Wu Dalang on the sea", guarding the baked cake shop but not full, and his legs were shorter......

Shao Youlian stroked his beard and said confidently: "General, don't worry, when Shao takes over, the island's finances will be in deficit, and it will take time to fill it." The cost of coal business is very high, and the large-scale mining costs a lot of silver, so it has been temporarily suspended! ”

"The governor does not need to worry about the cost of coal mining, and our department purchases high-quality coal, all of which are paid for and paid, and there is no arrears. A warship of our naval division must add more than 1,000 tons of coal, and the Gulong Coal Mine can not only make up for the deficit with this, but also make a lot of profits, which is a good thing for mutual benefit! ”

Nirma-pyrene, buy you some coal, and be taken a handful, something that the dog wears!

Shao Youlian laughed dryly, and then hugged his fists and said: "The general understands the righteousness and sympathizes with Min's feelings, Shao is grateful, and he must restore the coal industry as soon as possible, don't dare to delay important military affairs!" ”

At that time, with the deterioration of the war situation, the defense of Baodao became increasingly tight, and seeing that the war was about to spread to its own defense area, this cargo was immediately dotted up and down, and it was successfully transferred to Hunan as the governor!

Tang Jingsong even drew a big pie: "Don't say that the money and goods are clear, even if the mine is short and the fleet is short of coal, it can be given to the sailor for free!" ”

"The two adults must not be like this, I didn't know the local financial situation before, and since I know, I want to help you to show your gratitude. In this way, on behalf of the Nanyang sailors, I would like to donate 50,000 taels of silver to the acting director of the island. We also donated the same amount to the Xuanlong Coal Mining Bureau to start the coal mine! ”

If you don't have money, how can you moths work? Do you really think that if you say two big words, Lao Tzu will believe it? What about fooling a three-year-old?

The 50,000 taels in the front are for the two of you, and the back is for everyone, if you fight because of this money, it will be interesting!

"General Wang, how can this make ......" Shao Youlian also pretended to excuse himself

"Make! Make! The water situation of the military minyu! "As he spoke, he secretly scolded you in his heart!

Tang Jingsong shook his head and tasted it, quite approvingly: "The general's description is very wonderful, it is really Wen Taowuluo, Tang admires, he will come to Baobei in the future, and colleagues from all walks of life will warmly welcome him!" ”

Nonsense, Lao Tzu donated 100,000 taels of silver, and he couldn't even hear a good word, wouldn't it be a meat bun and beat a dog?

Liu Yongfu looked at the three of them praising each other, gritted his teeth, and said stubbornly: "Even so, Liu has a reluctant request, and I hope the general will consider one or two!" ”

"Commander-in-Chief, please!" The other party is half a level higher than himself, not to mention that he is still an anti-enamel & anti-Japanese double hero

"I'm ashamed to say that Liu's department still lacks Western fast guns, and I don't know ......"

"There are still a lot of guns in the next shot, I wonder if a thousand brand-new Mauser rifles will be enough? It's just that the matching bullets are still missing! ”

"That's enough! That's enough! The general is benevolent and righteous, and Liu is grateful! The matter of bullets, Liu raised it by himself, and he didn't bother the general! ”

After dinner, the three adults, accompanied by local acquaintance Li Jingsong, returned happily.

Shao Youlian and Tang Jingsong took the first step, and Liu Yongfu wanted to lead his men to receive Mauser rifles, so they set off a little later.

On the way, Tang Jingsong asked: "What do adults think of Wang Xiaoxiao?" How should I report to the court? ”

Shao Youlian groaned: "...... He has close contacts with foreigners, and his deeds are not yet known. However, the financial resources are abundant, and they must not be underestimated. Therefore, this person has been assimilated by foreigners, or has ill intentions, and his plans are very big, and he must not be guarded against. It must be closely monitored, and if there is an attempt to commit wrongdoing......"
