259 Singing
Regarding morality, in the nineteenth century, this was really not a big deal.
As the saying goes, when the granaries are full, when the food and clothing are sufficient, when the honor and disgrace are unknown, when the food and clothing are sufficient, when the food and clothing are not enough, or when there is not much spare money in your pocket, this person is really not moral, and the most important thing is to survive.
Look, it's all burned.
The most powerful country in the world these days is Britain, which made its fortune by issuing a "Private License", thus defeating the Spanish Invincible Fleet and establishing a modern international order.
It is still this country. Although it has become the world's leader, thirty years ago, because the Qing government did not allow him to sell opium, it blatantly used strong ships and powerful guns to bombard the Qing government's door.
It is this country again. A few years ago, because diamonds were discovered in the Oran area of South Africa, they would send troops to annex the Republic of De Vasland in a few years.
The world's bosses are all about this virtue, not to mention the United States, the British son.
By the way, European countries reached a consensus in Paris more than ten years ago and agreed to abolish the Private License, but I do not recognize this agreement in the United States, so in the current United States, the Private License is still valid.
The United States agreed to abolish the Private License until 1907. The United States had to agree to abolish the Private License because of a big panic. In this year, in terms of steel production, the United States surpassed the total of traditional powers such as Germany, Britain, France, and Russia in terms of important indicators of economic development.
As a standard American, Li Mu must be consistent with the American attitude on this point.
So, don’t talk about morality with Li Mu. Whoever mentions morality with Li Mu will be anxious.
According to the consistent theory that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, Bai Qi is naturally in line with each other.
Of course, just like having a "Private Certificate", the American instructor led the team did not expect Bai Qi to refuse to recognize his relatives. So after hearing that Bai Qi refused to admit that there was a "reserve prisoner", the American instructor who was full of joy was furious and wanted to talk to Bai Qi.
Who is afraid of whom?
No matter how the other party argues, mocks, threats, or even abuses it, Bai Qi turns it over and adjusts it to one word: "No!"
"You damn thief, your shamelessness is so refreshing. You should go to hell, where is your best destination. You yellow monkeys--" The American instructor suddenly popped up a word.
"Stop - what did you say just now?" Bai Qi couldn't believe his ears.
"I said you are a thief--" The American instructor did not respond slowly, and immediately denied it.
"Fuck you uncle--" Bai Qi screamed strangely, and suddenly slapped the American instructor in the face.
The slap was so fierce that the burly American instructor turned his body three times in the air and fell to the ground while turning. When the person was still in the air, he spewed out three feet high with blood, mixed with a few bloody teeth.
The commander can do it, but the soldiers still maintain restraint. There are so many prisoners who have not yet decided to belong to the scene. If they run around one and a half in the chaos, they will suffer a huge loss.
Besides, they are all their own people, so how can they get so angry?
Wait, this is the case. The defenders of El Cristo and Guantanamo infantry are both troops of the United States of Cuba, but American instructors are not. They are Americans, so American instructors are outsiders.
So don't blame other soldiers from the United States of Cuba for not helping. Even if they want to help, the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment is the one who helps.
So when Will and George Dewey arrived at the scene, Bai Qi was pressing the unlucky American instructor to beat him up. The others consciously maintained order, and did not help or fight, and there was no one to cheer for him.
"What should I do?" George Dewey was stunned when he saw this scene.
"Oh, they are all men. It's normal to have a bad temper, at least they didn't go too far-" Will tried to get along with him. Will is also an American.
The matter ended up being at Li Mu.
"Isn't it just a fight? It's normal-" Li Mu didn't take it seriously.
The army is a special group. Fighting cannot be said to be encouraged, but it is absolutely impunity. Of course, if you lose if you have to win, it is very good. It is easy to lock in the confinement and wash the toilet and write a check-up.
"Reim, this is an officer from the United States of Cuba who beat an officer from the United States of America. This is not a simple fight." George Dewey reminded Li Mu to sit on his butt.
Oh, I almost forgot that Li Mu is also an American.
"Don't exaggerate at any time, George, if someone calls you a 'white pig', can you bear it?" Li Mu was also doing his business. Before becoming an American, Li Mu was first a Chinese.
Yellow-skinned Chinese.
"We can discuss this issue after returning to China, but now this is in Cuba, we represent America. Strictly speaking, Tony is your employee." George Dewey said that this is an internal conflict and we can solve it behind closed doors, but before that, we should be consistent with the outside world.
"Then he is not now. I can't accept such an employee. Of course, Tony will receive some compensation and I will pay for his medical expenses." Li Mu wants to take this matter up and will not hold Bai Qi accountable.
Be held accountable?
Just kidding, Bai Qi and more than 100 people arrested a total of 17,000 prisoners. These people would provide Li Mu with more than 200,000 US dollars in profit every month. How to punish him?
To take a step back, Li Mu has been promoting "everyone is equal" in the army since the first day of the establishment of Guantanamo Infantry Regiment, "Chinese are no worse than whites." People like Tony say map cannons, and they are all blamed. Even if Bai Qi beat Tony to death, Li Mu will not hold Bai Qi accountable.
Why did Li Mu not have a military rank, but 5,000 people from Guantanamo Infantry Regiment respect Li Mu when they mentioned it?
It's because of this!
"Reim, this will have a bad impact on you." George Dewey already understood Li Mu's attitude, but he still made his own suggestions.
"Haha, it's okay." Li Mu was not worried.
Influence!
It's just a joke again. Li Mu is now a great inventor and a famous arms dealer. He is supporting a country in confrontation with Spain. He has tens of millions of funds available for mobilization. Tens of thousands of Americans and Cubans live with Li Mu. If such a big capitalist is easily affected by a low-level military officer, the term "capitalist" is too cheap.
In fact, it was precisely because he realized that Li Mu was also yellow-skinned that Tony now denies cursing Bai Qi as a "yellow-skinned monkey".
If Tony offended Li Mu, then he should be worried about Tony. Li Mu is someone who even Amis dares to plot against him. Li Mu has not taken it seriously yet.
"Okay, whatever you want, I have only one request, don't pursue this matter again." George Dewey knew Li Mu more and did not want this matter to continue to ferment.
If Li Mu's heart is a little darker, then Tony will definitely not be able to return home. The American passports these days do not say "America is your strong backing." If Li Mu and Tony are placed on the balance, to be honest, even George Dewey will choose Li Mu without hesitation.
"Of course, I promise." Li Mu promised George Dewey that he would not pursue this matter.
After George Dewey said goodbye, Benjamin made his own opinion: "If this matter falls into the eyes of some people with heart, it will indeed have a certain impact on you."
Compared with George Dewey, Benjamin and Li Mu are more involved and understand the cruelty of intrigue.
Compared with Li Mu, Tony is indeed a small person, but if Tony is placed in the white group, Li Mu's approach is indeed questionable, and if some people with hearts start hyping this matter at the right time, it will definitely have a certain impact on Li Mu.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. If someone targets me, then you will always find a reason. It's better to let them jump out so that I can see who they are." Li Mu thought far away. This is called taking a long line to catch big fish. The earlier the hidden dangers, the better.
"Okay, you know." Benjamin stopped. Since Li Mu was confident, Benjamin didn't need to be a villain: "Our striker has passed Camagui, should we go and receive Bayamo?"
It is now August 1st, and Will leads Guantanamo infantry regiments to cross the central Cuban city of Camagui and is pursuing Vila Nikolau all the way north.
Vila Nikolau has finally tasted the feeling of being defeated thousands of miles away. St. Louis is not worth making up. Palma Soriano fought. Vila Nikolau didn't even dare to enter the city when he passed by Bayamo. He could only retreat northward and try to escape back to Havana.
Will's cavalry shone brightly, with only four or five hundred troops chasing the butts of tens of thousands of Spanish regular soldiers and servants. Along the way, the prisoners had captured tens of thousands of people, including more than 6,000 Spanish.
According to Mahan's estimate, there are at most three thousand people left by Vila Nikolau, and the others are either captured or collapsed, and the 90,000 troops have disappeared.
On the second day after the Battle of El Cristo, Li Mu and George Dewey had a simple meeting. George Dewey proposed to take the opportunity to chase Willie Nikolaou's butt all the way north, preferably even Havana would be determined.
