Chapter 435: The Primordial Covenant (Subscription Requested)

Now that Li Xian said this, he agreed that all the allies of the Huaxia Army would share the profits of the Northern Trade, which would be a feast of benefits that would be more abundant than the Nanyang Trade, and these people who could not be present were not excited.

Some of the officers of the Mixed Yuan Sect had some ideas, and they had the intention of monopolizing all profits, but they knew that Li Xian had always advocated free trade, and he would not get stuck in the way of business for his allies at the critical moment of the war against the Qing army, so he could only shake his head at this time, planning to find an opportunity to slowly persuade his own commander in the future, and not to always share too many benefits with his allies.

In fact, Li Xian had a very serious analysis of the matter of overseas trade, and knew very well in his heart that a large number of allies were invested in trade, which was beneficial and harmless to the Mixed Yuan Sect.

From a political point of view, when the Mixed Yuan Sect and the Sanyuan Sect were crowded in Guangdong in the past, many people in the Three Yuan Sect felt that the Mixed Yuan Sect had crowded out the opinions of their own sects, and there were many small actions in the open and in the dark.

Now, the focus of the Mixed Yuan Sect is obviously going to move to the north, and the relationship between the two sides has eased a lot immediately, and this time the Sanyuan Guan sent troops to help the Mixed Yuan Sect, but the final result is to thank the Mixed Yuan Sect for giving him the opportunity to participate in the trade with Japan, and it can only be said that the world is very wonderful.

As for those in Hainan and Qinzhou, they can also be better tied to the chariot of the Mixed Yuan Sect through this kind of trade activity, which can make up for the lack of troops of the Mixed Yuan Sect.

Of course, in addition to these, there are also actual immediate benefits, but Wang Jiuxuan and the others are a little less knowledgeable after all, and they can't see what Li Xian is planning.

At this spoils sharing meeting, Li Xian once again confirmed that the Mixed Yuan Sect would continue to uphold the concept of free development, help Sanyuanguan and other allies to develop to the north, and at the same time allow these allies to participate in the governance of Ningbo and Dinghai, so that they would have a place to stay.

When these sects have a foundation, they can find their own ways to seek benefits in the north.

The Mixed Yuan Sect's help to the allies actually reached this level, which was somewhat unexpected by Wang Jiuxuan, Qin Rigang and others, who originally thought that the Mixed Yuan Sect would at most give up Wenzhou and other unimportant cities to let the allies help resist the attack from Fujian or something.

At this banquet, most people get what they want, and at the same time, which city to hit first, which city to hit later, and how to divide the territory in the end, such an overall plan has also taken shape.

According to the agreement within the Huaxia Army, the strategy for the north naturally began in Zhejiang, led by the Mixed Yuan Sect, and other allies provided military and material assistance within their capabilities.

After all of Zhejiang was occupied, it was natural that the Mixed Yuan Sect would occupy the most prosperous Hangzhou and most of the area, and the other allies would divide up some of the valuable state capitals according to their contributions.

The most important thing is that everyone decided to establish the Huaxia League on the basis of the original Huaxia Army, but all sects that were willing to raise troops to resist the Qing court could join in, fight together, and then divide the territory and benefits according to the contribution in the war.

For example, the Wuyue Sword Sect such as the Huashan School and the northern martial arts sects such as Shaolin also want to expand their own sects, and they can also send their own disciples, build their own sect armies, join the Huaxia League, and then get territory within the framework of the Huaxia League.

Feng Mingyang and other martial artists were naturally more interested in this point, and had a heated discussion with Li Xian and Wang Jiuxuan and others.

The northern sects all have their own forces, and they also have outstanding disciples, which may be stronger than the original three-element view, but they are mainly traditional sect models, lacking regular armies, and lacking modern firearms and military training.

Li Xian, Wang Jiuxuan and others promised that according to the model of aiding the Guangxi Demon Sect at the beginning, they could provide guns and artillery to these northern sects, and at the same time, these sects could also send their disciples to study at the military academy of the Huaxia Army and participate in the actual combat of the army at the same time.

After training and actual combat, the disciples of these sects can grow into excellent officers, and then they can return to their original sects, help their sects form armies, and then help the sects occupy territory through the army.

As for the current Huaxia Army, it will be able to get a large number of outstanding warriors with strong martial arts and literacy to serve, which will not only expand the special combat team, but also increase the foundation of the officer corps, which will also be of great benefit.

With the current strength of the rebel army, most of them have entered the steam engine era of the capitalist era, and there has begun to be a surplus of arms, and the cost of a musket is only about ten silver dollars, and 10,000 guns are also 100,000 yuan, which is not too much of a burden on the Mixed Yuan Sect, the Sanyuan Temple, and even the Heaven and Earth Society.

Of course, the only thing to worry about is that after the Qing court is expelled, these northern sects will also become stronger, and then they may have to compete with each other again, and there will be a situation of warlord secession.

However, the previous battle in Putian sounded the alarm for the Mixed Yuan Sect and other sects, understanding that the Qing court was a behemoth after all, dead but not stiff, and with the assistance of a special existence like Thirteen Yiren, it was a dream to think that with tens of thousands of firearms under his command, he could run amok, and even easily overthrow the rule of the Qing court.

If you don't fight cautiously and gather all the forces that can be united, even with the strength of the Mixed Yuan Sect and the command of a genius military strategist like Li Xian, you may also suffer defeat and end up in a realm of no return.

Therefore, at least during this period of time, whether it was the northern sect or the rebels in Guangdong, they were still united, and they all thought about the destruction of the Qing court first and then thought about anything else.

This originally unimportant banquet led to a lot of things, and it took an important step towards the establishment of the Huaxia League, which covered most of the martial arts schools in the land of China, and had a very important impact on the history of China for decades and even hundreds of years.

After this banquet, which was later called the "Taichu Covenant", Li Xian alone convened the senior officers of the Mixed Yuan Sect to discuss the future military strategy.

"We had a very good banquet today, not only sorting out the interests of our existing major factions of the Huaxia Army, but also sorting out the interests of the various major factions in the north.

Next, we can focus on the battlefield and concentrate our superior forces to conquer Hangzhou and occupy it. Li Xian was in a good mood and said excitedly.

"Yes, when we occupy Hangzhou, Jiading, Huzhou, etc., and have a steady stream of financial resources, we can seek the whole of Zhejiang, and then occupy the whole of Jiangnan.

The winners and losers in the capture of Jiangnan, or the entire world, are in these three state capitals, but it is a pity that neither the Qing court nor our allies are aware of this. Qiao Daqing nodded, also looking very excited.

"It's also the handsome man who has a torch in his eyes and sees the winner and loser, otherwise we may have to take a few detours. After all, the commander of the navy, Hu Chong, was born in a commercial bank, and he was relatively old, so he usually paid attention to the color of his boss, so he patted Li Xian on the back at this time.

"Haha, needless to say, if you praise each other, we are now one step ahead of others strategically, and we have to achieve it tactically.

How to fight this Ningbo and how to conquer Hangzhou, let's discuss it. Li Xian said with a laugh.
