Chapter 163 Lin Xin's North American Journey (2)

This landing, Lin Xin didn't know what to do. After more than a month of sailing, he had no idea where he had been sent by the white men. The places he knew were the places in Southeast Asia around the Qing Dynasty and South America that he had heard the Portuguese talk about. However, this one did not look like it, he knew a little bit about trees, and there were no trees here that should exist in a warm climate.

After Ijik handed them over to the Apache, the men turned to transporting the goods instead of continuing to look after them. However, this does not mean that they have a chance to escape. Those who continue to supervise them are a much stronger group of warriors. Among them, there are some people who are not much different in appearance from them, while others are serious white people. This did not surprise Lin Xin, who had been well-informed, what really surprised him was that they actually communicated in Chinese.

Although the pronunciation is a bit strange and a little different from the orthodox official dialect, he and all his Chinese companions can understand the specific meaning. This couldn't help but make him wonder if those who looked very similar to them were also Chinese. Lin Xin didn't know the weapons and equipment of the 1st Field Brigade such as the Yanhuang 1st rifle, but from the moment he saw Ijik saluting a young general respectfully, he knew that this group of people was definitely stronger than Yijik.

has been in contact with white people many times, and Lin Xin knows their temperament very well. This is a group of barbarians who do not know etiquette, and if they want to gain their respect, there is only one way, and that is that the other party can easily destroy them. Lin Xin thought about it, and decided not to provoke these troops for the time being. After all, whether it's the appearance or the posture of the troops, these armies are very good. Lin Xin even thought that a long time ago, Qi Jiguang's army in the Ming Dynasty was just like this.

Lin Xin just begged these people to continue to be like Ijik, not to abuse them, not to insult women. However, he really didn't expect that the treatment he got was so good. Just completed the handover, 5,000 people, directly divided into two groups: men and women. The men were led by the male warriors, and the women were led by the female soldiers of the medical team, and they entered the two large tents and began to fire in a ladder. No way, after two months in the cabin where they could not take a bath, these people were covered with a foul smell of rancidity.

To prevent bacterial infection, it is a good idea to shave all the hairs that may harbor germs and bugs. Then, in groups of dozens of dozens, they went into the trenches, and one of them was given a small bar of soap and began to take a bath. The soldiers used a pump to pump up the seawater, first flushed them, ordered them to soap, scrub their bodies, and then flush again. Repeat it three times, and each one is washed white. The sea water does not need to be filtered, and the Pacific Ocean in this era is still very clean, and with salt, it is directly disinfected.

Lin Xin and the others did not dare to disobey the orders of the soldiers of the First Brigade of the field, everything was done, but there were many people who were very interested in soap. After taking a bath, a set of labor protection clothes was issued directly, for this kind of clothes, the company has long been able to produce their own clothes, but the quality of their original clothes is better. Their original clothes were directly gathered and burned. Wearing the new clothes, many people are still happy, and the previous panic has been slightly reduced.

Then, the soldiers brought a basket of iron lunch boxes, and one was issued to each person. Lin Xin and the others were told that this was the guy they used to eat in the next half of the year, and if they lost it, they would have no food to eat, and they were all very precious and covered them directly. Before Lin Xin could think of being hungry, the cooking squad of the 1st Field Brigade had already brought up the food. The food on the first day was very simple, instant noodles with canned meat and canned vegetables. These things were all purchased by Shawlindo in the past, plus the company itself made it with some spices from North America.

In the British North American colonies, it still sold very well. Throw all the instant noodles in a big pot and boil them, add some meat and vegetables, and the noodle soup can taste good, which is considered to be a big pot of rice. For Lin Xin, who has eaten delicacies from the mountains and seas, it is naturally nothing, but for those civilians in the East of Korea and the criminals of the Qing Dynasty, these things are delicious one by one. Even, many Dongying people are eating meat and spiced food for the first time, and they are smiling one by one.

After eating, everyone received a blanket. It looks rough and shouldn't be made of good fur. Lin Xin guessed correctly, this is all made by the company from low-value hare and deer skins, and leftovers from other fur processing. It is not comfortable to cover the body, but at least it can ensure that the body can be kept warm on this near-summer night, the key is to be cheap and durable, and the quantity is large. The ordinary family of the company is also willing to buy a carpet for use.

After a good night's sleep, Lin Xin and the others finally recovered their spirits. Early the next morning, Apache got everyone moving and began to pack up the camp. He wanted to bring these 5,000 people back to Xiao Lin immediately, because the company had already established three light factories in the past month, and the company's labor force was seriously insufficient. Lin Xin once again saw the magic of these armies, and within an hour, the camp of 3,000 people was cleaned up, and all tents and other equipment were loaded onto carriages and other vehicles.

For breakfast, they each gave out two steamed buns, just enough for an adult, and even the water was not distributed, all of which were concentrated in the hands of the soldiers. If they are all matched, it is inevitable that these laborers who cannot understand the situation will have crooked thoughts. It wasn't very peaceful, with eye-catching groups of Indians scalping and poachers trying to take advantage, as well as hungry wolves raiding at night. Even the British heard the news and organized thousands of troops to lay an ambush halfway.

Every time, Lin Xin was worried. However, the 1st Field Brigade was the first fully armed main force of Xiao Lin. After all the weapons were in place, their firepower was even more powerful than the most powerful front-line brigade on the battlefield in China during the Anti-Japanese War. This time when they came out, Xiao Lin also asked them to bring several times as many bullets and shells. The 1st Field Brigade also used the old to lead the new, and the veterans of one regiment led the recruits of two regiments, and all of them were used as actual combat drills.

The only casualty Lin Xin has ever seen is because of the ambush by the British, the number of British troops has reached more than 4,000, and they are not all cannon fodder such as militia. So, more than two dozen recruits unfortunately died. More than two hundred fighters were wounded. This casualty ratio, in Lin Xin's opinion, is really too powerful. It was the most elite Zhenghuang Banner elite that year, and the Ming army except for the Liaodong Army would have this ratio.

In particular, none of the wounded soldiers died from their wounds, and all of them were rescued by the army medical team. Only a dozen had to leave the unit, and by the time they returned to Victory, the most seriously injured had already begun recovery training. Apache's 1st Field Brigade will officially enter Victory Town to be deployed. The gap in the number of thirty warriors brought about by the trek along the way, Apache directly recruited on the spot and trained himself.

Lin Xin and the others finally arrived at the place and also met Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin didn't have much contact with these people, even if there were his own people in them. He directly announced the next order to them. These people are not slaves, but the most basic laborers. Because there were no children and old people in it, five thousand people, both men and women, were assigned labor tasks. The women went to the farm to help, and these women were all good at farm work, and the only deficiencies in strength and physical strength were also compensated for by the company's sharp and sturdy hoes and plows.

Men, divided into two parts, one part of the people with good physique, were taken away for brainwashing education. After the inspection period, they are qualified soldiers, because of the nature of Asians, these people can enter the first-line field brigade, unlike the blacks, who can only enter the second-line garrison brigade. And the rest of the people selected by the army will naturally be turned into factory labor, doing manual work with no technical content. Every day is very tiring, but the food and accommodation are very good, and even some people are happy.

Among these people, Lin Xin is not included. Lin Xin himself is tall, and he didn't exercise well when he was studying in order to gain fame, and his body was not good. But since the exile overseas, the body has been trained very well, and naturally, it was chosen. Lin Xin has never been a person who follows the rules, otherwise he would not have become the first champion of the Qing Dynasty to defect to the sea. However, he is a very studious person, and the first time he took class, he asked the teacher to stop, and the political brainwashing education almost couldn't be carried out.

In desperation, Lin Xin was brought to Xiao Lin. It was also the first time that Xiao Lin met a really smart person, and chatted with him with great interest.

"So, you used to be a champion of Jinshi, how did you fall to this point, it's really embarrassing. ”

"Oh, my lord seems to know a lot about Huaxia. ”

"Hmph, is that called Huaxia? Huaxia has been enslaved by the Manchu barbarians, because of them, Huaxia has missed the best opportunity for development, but this Aixin Jueluo style, still immersed in the dream of the Heavenly Empire, is still desperately trying to weaken the people's wisdom and reduce their own strength. Times have changed, and if Huaxia does not rise up, it will be beaten. ”

"Beaten, can those Rakshasa ghosts and barbarians still defeat the army of millions of Celestial Empires?"

"Ignorance, ignorance. I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be such a waste. If it weren't for you people, our family wouldn't have had to leave the mainland early and come here just to leave a way back for the Yanhuang people. ”

"I have known for a long time that you were plundered by the Portuguese, I don't know, what do you think of the power of these white firearms?"

"This ....."
