() However, the more he analyzed it, the less he dared to agree to this cooperation casually, because this was too outrageous. In his opinion, even if all these iron ores were replaced with silver ores, they would not be worth Taiwan's effort.
If they wanted to, if they sent troops to the island and even occupied the mining belt island, who would be able to take it back? If they didn't dare to take it back, those revolutionary parties wouldn't dare to take it either.
After struggling for three days, Liu Yongdian still couldn't decide whether to agree or not. In the end, his master understood better. Seeing Liu Yongdian's hesitation, he enlightened him and said, don't worry about what others want, just do it first.
See what you can get, just
If you think you are satisfied with what you can get, don't worry about how much benefit others can get. In this troubled world, if you can take one more step to see, you are a hero. If you can take two more steps to see, you are a hero. If you can take three steps to hide, you are a hero.
, that is the hero who can move the wind and rain; Sir, how many steps do you plan to take?
When Liu Yongdian heard this, he was right! Just relying on his ability to say whether it was big or small, the military preparation road, and it was the military preparation road on a broken island like Qiongya, how many steps did he plan to take? Can he save his life?
If you are successful, and you can get some benefits, you can be a big man in a few years
The governor, although he is also a great governor on a poor island, it is a profit. If he can get some property by the way, and in a few years can find a reason to go back to his hometown with the money, wouldn't it be perfect?
What do you care about what other people want to do?
"Sign, sir, I agreed to a condition. I will not betray the country, and I will not resist the revolution. I just want to go home and be a rich man. If I don't agree to their conditions, I won't be able to save my life. Why don't you sign!!!
"After Liu Yongdian thought clearly about the cause and effect, he slammed the table, as if the energy in his body was back.
Five days later, the Taiwanese representative arrived as promised and signed a secret contract with the then interim Governor of Qiongya, Liu Yongdian, at the Governor's Mansion of Qiongya. One party to this contract was the interim Governor of Qiongya, Liu Yongdian, and the other party was not Taiwanese.
Zheng Fu, but this private Taiwanese company called Shilu Mining Company, but Liu Yongdian did not force it. This contract was originally a private agreement, and no one intended to show it to the public.
On the third day after the signing of the contract, a large freighter transporting ore docked at Changhua Port. However, this time there was no ore loaded on the freighter, and no equipment was transported off the freighter. All the people who came out of the cabin were all dressed in flowers.
Soldiers in clothes, some of these soldiers got off the ship to the port, quickly lined up in teams, and stood waiting, while other soldiers used cranes to lift blacksmith cabinets and various large pieces of wood one by one from the cabin.
The boxes were hoisted onto the dock.
On the terrace outside the command room of the cargo ship, stood a middle-aged officer. He was also wearing floral clothes, but instead of wearing such a small iron pot on his head, he wore a soft cloth military cap, and his mouth
Holding a cigar in his mouth, he silently watched the numerous soldiers on the deck and dock.
If the US military liaison officers on Mindanao were here, they would immediately recognize this officer as Major Liu Xiaofu, the brigade commander of Taiwan's 1st Mountain Brigade that was the first to land on Mindanao. However, Liu Xiaofu is no longer
Brigadier, neither
He is a major. With Taiwan's military expansion, Liu Xiaofu is already a lieutenant colonel commander of the First Mountain Division. And this time, he is the vanguard to support Hainan Island, commanding his own mountain division to help Liu Yongdian form
, to train local troops.
This time, Liu Fu spent a lot of money on the Shilu Iron Mine. Not only did he transport 20,000 of the first batch of AK-01 and AK-02 semi-automatic rifles that were eliminated from the Taiwan Army, but he also brought them from Japan at that time.
The heavy machine guns, field artillery and other equipment captured from the Sixth Division were also transported here.
And there is also the entire divisional equipment of the 1st Mountain Division. In addition, as an important part of helping the defense of Hainan Island, a fleet composed of 2 Keelung-class destroyers and 10 Petrel torpedo boats have also been deployed from the naval base in Tainan.
Set sail and will soon arrive at Haikou Port and blockade the Qiongzhou Strait.
After the First Mountain Division arrived in Hainan Island and established a garrison near Changhua Port, it began to receive batches of former Qing Dynasty garrison troops sent from various places on Hainan Island by Liu Yongdian, the temporary governor of Qiongya, in the garrison. They are now called the Revolutionary Army.
Third Brigade of the 12th Division of the Fourth Army.
When these revolutionary troops arrived at the mountain division's station, Liu Xiaofu almost cried when he looked at these beggar-like troops. His brigade commanders and regimental commanders also put away their smiles and silently watched these soldiers.
Under the leadership of junior officers, according to the original affiliation, one company after another slowly filled the temporary playground of the Mountain Division.
From their military uniforms to shoes and hats to weapons and equipment, these officers and soldiers of the Third Brigade of the Revolutionary Army greatly opened the eyes of the soldiers of the Mountain Division. Let's talk about the military uniforms first. Most of them are still wearing the Qing court's robes, and the materials are about
It's a coarse cloth like linen, dark blue in color, with a double-breasted top, a circle on the front, and a two-line small letter written on the white patch in the middle.
Wearing a large bamboo hat. There are also a few people wearing white clothes and pants, and a blue waistcoat. There is also a large white round patch in the middle of the waistcoat, but there are not so many words on the patch.
There is only a big "Bing" character on it, and what they are wearing is not a bamboo hat, but a round hat with a layer of red tassels on it.
The styles of clothes are different, and the weapons in their hands are also different. Most of the soldiers wearing hats are holding spears and machetes. Only a few of them have rifles in their hands. However, the soldiers of the Mountain Division with rifles cannot recognize them.
Model. The soldiers wearing round hats are much better. They basically hold rifles, although some rifles look like they have different models.
These soldiers saw that the officers and soldiers of the Mountain Division were all wearing colorful combat uniforms, carrying a small pot on their heads, and holding obviously high-end rifles. They looked very majestic. Then they looked around and compared with their own soldiers, and they were stunned.
Like a beggar, he immediately became very hurt, not only his self-confidence, but also the man's self-esteem.
Liu Xiaofu was also very depressed looking at these rag-tag soldiers. He originally planned to use this opportunity to help Hainan Island train soldiers to let his mountain division soldiers learn more things. But now it seems that, let alone learning the advantages, it is okay not to learn.
The shortcomings are pretty good.
According to Liu Fu's plan, these Hainan Island revolutionary troops will be trained by the Mountain Division in turns for about 2 months, mainly to teach them how to use new weapons produced in Taiwan, and then teach them some combat skills. However, Liu Xiaofu saw these
After joining the army, I already ordered my adjutant to send a telegram to Taiwan. In these two months, I was able to learn the basics of weapons.
The operation is not easy, and there is probably no time to teach them those combat skills. In addition, Liu Xiaofu also specifically asked Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense in the message whether the army uniforms that had been replaced before could be used as waste. Here's
The soldiers don't even have military uniforms. It's too ugly to train a bunch of beggars on the playground all day long.
The Ministry of National Defense quickly responded and said that 5,000 sets of old military uniforms, including helmets, were already being prepared for shipment. As for the training of the Hainan Island Revolutionary Army, the Ministry of National Defense specifically stated that it would be whatever it can be trained to. Originally, Taiwan
We have no intention of relying on them to defend Hainan Island. This is just a reassurance for Liu Yongdian.
After reading the call back, Liu Xiaofu suddenly felt more at ease. At least he didn't have to worry about training. At that moment, he handed over the training task to one of his battalion commanders and left two battalions at the temporary base to be responsible for training.
mission, the remaining troops began to organize equipment and supplies, prepare to move to the predetermined defense locations, and begin to take over most of the defense of Hainan Island.
