In fact, it is very easy to subvert an area that is already showing signs of chaos. It does not even require Qin Zhiyuan's planning. Gao Hongshi has many talents in this field.
Qin Zhiyuan just expressed this intention to Gao Hongshi, and Gao Hongshi immediately said that it could be implemented immediately.
Just as Vittorio Emanuele III was worried, Corsica is too close to Sardinia. Gao Hongshi had already thought about this the year before last, and even mixed sand into Sardinia.
It has been going on for more than a year, and many of the people in Sardinia who are most determined to demand autonomy are Gao Hongshi's men.
Think about it, it used to be the same poor and backward country, but after several years of development, Corsica has become a paradise in Europe, while Sardinia is still the same half-dead state. How can this not make Sardinians envious?
Hate it
There is no need to say too much, just a provocation can prompt the Sardinians to move closer to Corsica.
People go to higher places.
Qin Zhiyuan has no objection to Gao Hongshi's self-assertion. The world is like this. If you don't advance against the current, you will retreat. And compared to other European countries, Italy is indeed a soft persimmon. It is really not easy to bully.
Italy is not at peace either. After the World War, the Italians did not get what they wanted. They once launched a war against Greece, but they did not expect to be beaten to pieces by the Greeks. There was a man named Mussolini in Italy.
This guy is an idiot. Although he doesn’t have much ability, he is definitely a restless element. Just last year, Mussolini established a party called the Fighting Fascist Party, and he himself is the leader of the party. My relationship with Mussolini
We have had contact, and if necessary, we can help Mussolini seize power. Gao Hongshi is indeed ambitious and knows the situation in Italy very well.
Mussolini is indeed a fool. You see, if appropriate, supporting him to come to power is not bad, but you must understand one thing, there is no free lunch in this world. Qin Zhiyuan nodded in agreement.
Qin Zhiyuan has a deep understanding of Mussolini through the history of World War II. Apart from playing with people's hearts, this guy has almost no other talents. Like Clemenceau, Mussolini is now the editor-in-chief of a newspaper. He
Italy founded by myself.
Newspapers are indeed a good tool for public opinion mouthpieces. Before many politicians come to power, they will choose newspapers as their habitat. They can make any remarks in newspapers without worrying about taking responsibility. For those big figures on stage, they can do whatever they want.
Ridicule, once certain remarks cater to the needs of certain specific groups of people, these people will have their own supporters.
From this point of view, the news access system implemented by Lanfang is indeed very necessary. In the current Lanfang, the daily news is still the only one that dominates the comprehensive news category, and the other newspapers are all professional newspapers, each belonging to financial education.
Industry and other fields.
Don't worry, if Mussolini gets a benefit from us, then he will hand over at least two benefits. Gao Hongshi's sword is already hungry. If he changes his career to business, Gao Hongshi will be a good hand.
Sardinia was just an interlude. Qin Zhiyuan forgot about it after explaining it, and showed no interest in Mussolini, a historical celebrity. Mussolini is not qualified to meet Qin Zhiyuan now. Wait for him to meet Qin Zhiyuan first.
Let’s talk about getting the rights.
Qin Zhiyuan is now busy with the expeditionary force sent to Madagascar. For this reason, Qin Zhiyuan even postponed his visit to the UK.
Regarding this matter, Qin Zhiyuan also did it on purpose. The news that a group of militiamen in Port Hedland cleanly defeated the Parth Expeditionary Force has spread all over the world. According to the intelligence analysis obtained, the United Kingdom seriously suspects that France and Lan Fang are involved.
, now the French are quarreling with the British, Qin Zhiyuan doesn't want to go to London to join in the fun during this sensitive period, and he might start a fight with Lloyd George again, which would be really embarrassing.
According to the agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre, Lanfang must send at least 20,000 foreign legionnaires to Madagascar. The current population of Madagascar is only about 1.2 million, and 20,000 soldiers are enough to help Pierre control the situation.
Pierre's cost of hiring 20,000 soldiers will be offset by Madagascar's mineral resources. According to the agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre, Lanfang can send a team of no more than 5,000 mining workers to go there.
Madagascar.
It can be seen from this point that Pierre is still wary of Qin Zhiyuan. He must have lingering fears about the Chinese population base. If the population is not restricted and the Lanfang government is allowed to immigrate to Madagascar unscrupulously, then use
In a few years, Madagascar will be another Corsica. By then, France will have worked hard in vain, and will have a bad reputation for massacring the indigenous people, and it will be used to make Lan Fang's wedding clothes in vain.
Qin Zhiyuan didn't care about this at all. Let alone five thousand people, even if he didn't send a single person, Qin Zhiyuan would have a way to immigrate to Madagascar.
It was not only Qin Zhiyuan who assisted Pierre in seeking the position of Governor of Madagascar, but also a large number of businessmen. Basically, these businessmen were following the lead of Old Renault. Old Renault and the others wanted to open a business in Madagascar, and to open a business
A large number of employees are needed. However, Madagascar will have a labor shortage due to a sharp decline in population, so Qin Zhiyuan is not worried about being unable to immigrate. Currently, only Lanfang in the world has a large amount of surplus labor. As for the French, they actively recruit people to join France.
, it is too late to increase France’s population base, and there is simply no spare capacity to export labor force.
Like France, Lanfang is also trying every means to introduce people, and because of Asia's own population base, Lanfang's efforts are much greater than France's, and the results are much better.
In addition to the Chinese, Lanfang has absorbed a large number of Annanites, Koreans, and even Japanese to join Lanfang as nationalities. In addition to accepting all Koreans, Lanfang has certain requirements for Annanese, Japanese, and even white people from Europe.
,Personal quality is only one aspect, and the degree of recognition of Lanfang culture, that is, Han culture, is another aspect.
It has to be said that Chinese culture is indeed tolerant and tolerant. Many Westerners who originally did not want to become Lanfang nationalities will choose to become Lanfang nationalities under the influence of Han culture after living in Lanfang for a period of time. Not only
Many Germans are like this, and so are the French. At least at the beginning of Lanfang's founding, a considerable number of those Frenchmen who returned to Lanfang with the Foreign Legion as employees had already gone to Lanfang with their families and successfully obtained Lanfang citizenship.
If you take a longer view, this point that Pierre insists on has no meaning. After all, Pierre has to return to France. He cannot be the governor of Madagascar for the rest of his life. As long as there are personnel changes in Madagascar, Qin Zhiyuan will have a lot to write about.
By then, it is estimated that Old Renault and the others will be able to control the economy of Madagascar, and what they want to do will definitely not be decided by Old Renault and the others.
So there is no need for Qin Zhiyuan to get entangled with Pierre on these trivial details.
The only thing Qin Zhiyuan needs to worry about is the general leading the foreign legion.
In fact, there are still many people in Lanfang's army who are suitable to lead the foreign legion to Madagascar. Many generals even have experience in doing this kind of thing. However, most of these candidates are now in high positions and cannot be replaced easily, so Qin Zhiyuan will be cautious.
Be careful.
After careful consideration, Cheng Xing'an, commander of the 11th Division of the Northern Xinjiang Military Region, came into Qin Zhiyuan's sight.
Cheng Xing'an is a veteran of the Foreign Legion. He joined the Foreign Legion during the Kapi stage and can be regarded as Qin Zhiyuan's confidant.
A more important reason why Cheng Xing'an was able to gain Qin Zhiyuan's trust is that Cheng Xing'an participated in the war against Russia's Goryeo and Japan, and is now besieging Red Russia with Kolchak's troops. It can be said that he has experienced hundreds of years of experience.
Cheng Xing'an has rich experience in fighting, especially in suppressing resistance movements.
You must know that when Lanfang's army first entered Goryeo, the Goryeo people were not sincerely willing to accept the rule of the Lanfang people, so there were many overt and covert resistance actions. The troops led by Cheng Xing'an performed well, and nothing happened at the station.
He was involved in a vicious attack on the garrison, so he was commended by the Lanfang Military Department. This was an important reason why Cheng Xing'an came into Qin Zhiyuan's sight.
After deciding on the candidate, Qin Zhiyuan immediately ordered Chen Kangjian to transfer Cheng Xing'an back to Lanfang, and immediately assumed the post of commander of the African Corps formed to go to Madagascar. As soon as Pierre took office, troops would be dispatched to Madagascar.
The Lanfang Foreign Legion has always maintained its establishment, and now there are five divisions with a size of nearly 80,000 people. Most of these troops are stationed in the northern Xinjiang region. Now they are basically involved in the war against Red Russia and cannot be deployed, so the new
Although the African Legion was nominally a foreign legion, it was actually a force composed mainly of Annamites and Koreans.
Of course, in accordance with the usual style of the Foreign Legion, the military commanders of the grassroots companies and even the backbone of the army are basically Lanfang people. Not all of these Lanfang people are Chinese, there are also Annan and Westerners.
In order to cope with unexpected needs, the Afrika Korps was larger than Pierre requested, with a total of 30,000 people. These 30,000 people were basically equipped with Lanfang's latest B2-type rifles, and the light machine guns were also replaced by Lewis-type ones.
The latest 20 formulas developed by Lanfang.
The Type 20 light machine gun was developed on the basis of the Lewis-type light machine gun. The bullets are still the same as the 97-round drum. The main improvement is the barrel that can be quickly replaced. Because the barrel can be quickly replaced, there is no need to consider the issue of heat dissipation.
So the Type 20 light machine gun finally got rid of that thick tube and became much slimmer and slimmer.
With the establishment of the African Corps, it can be said that everything is ready for the expedition to Madagascar, except for Pierre's east wind.
