Zheng Lingfeng was very like Lanfang's soldiers. The day after he returned to Yongding Village, Zheng Lingfeng began to organize the people of Yongding Village to start training, preparing to train a militia to cooperate with the Marine Corps' operations.
It was not until this time that the villagers in Yongding Village really saw Lan Fang's soldiers.
As Zheng Lingfeng said, there really weren't many people that Zheng Lingfeng brought back, just about a hundred or so people. These people all had the same short hair, jackets, overalls, and short boots as Zheng Lingfeng. They spoke kindly, but the arrogance in their bones could not be concealed.
It's not that I'm arrogant, it doesn't feel like I'm superior to others, it's just that I have a different sense of distance from you. It's not offensive, but it does raise eyebrows.
In the eyes of the villagers of Yongding Village, this feeling of being rejected by others became a source of confidence. So in almost one day, Zheng Lingfeng pulled together a team of more than 500 people.
Not only the villagers of Yongding Village, but also people from several nearby Chinese gathering spots came to join.
Because they are militiamen, they do not undertake combat tasks, that is, carrying stretchers, cleaning the battlefield, etc., so they do not need much rigorous training. They can simply set up a few rules so that the militiamen understand all actions and follow orders.
After everything was ready, Zheng Hanxue went to Pado and said that he would invite the civil affairs chief of Pado to Yongding Village to prepare for your death.
In fact, there is no need to make any preparations. Zheng Lingfeng does not even need to ask the militia for help if he is willing. Zheng Lingfeng can capture Pado with these 100 men.
The number 100 people led by Zheng Lingfeng are not ordinary soldiers. The Lanfang Marine Corps has requirements for recruitment. Although it is not as strict as the special operations brigade, the basic requirements are still a little higher than ordinary soldiers. In addition, Shanghai
Due to the special characteristics of the Marine Corps, at least the armed swimming performance must be excellent. A hundred or ten men like this are more than enough to defeat Pardo.
What do you say about the country Siam? They are caught between the British and the French and are barely surviving. Regardless of whether it is the British or the French, as long as they launch a war against Siam, Siam has no ability to resist. Therefore, the existence of the Siamese army
The meaning is not for national defense at all, but to suppress domestic resistance forces. In this way, one can imagine the quality of the Siamese army.
The simplest situation is enough to illustrate the combat effectiveness of the Siamese army. In Siam, even the palace guards used old-style single-shot rifles, the kind that fired one shot and loaded with one bullet. There was no magazine at all.
The 100 people led by Zheng Lingfeng have all been equipped with the latest B2-type rifles, and have also been issued with the latest Type 20 general-purpose machine guns. In terms of weapons alone, the Siamese army and Zheng Lingfeng's people are completely different.
, let alone Pado City, even the Royal Palace of Siam, if Zheng Lingfeng wanted to defeat it, it would not take much effort.
Pado is a county, and the highest civil administrator is the county magistrate. This magistrate has a difficult-to-pronounce name, and the name Manu is usually used.
After receiving Zheng Hanxue's invitation, Manu, without doubting the deception, went straight to Yongding Village with a few troops.
Zheng Hanxue's excuse for inviting Manu was the tax increase. According to Zheng Hanxue, Zheng Hanxue had summoned the clan chiefs and village elders from several villages near Yongding Village to gather in Yongding Village. He invited Manu there to uphold justice, which is fine.
Suppress dissenting voices.
This reason is very normal. Manu never thought that Zheng Han, who had always been honest, would learn to plot against him, so he led a few people towards Yongding Village.
If you want to uphold justice, you always need to bring a few people with you, otherwise you won't have the confidence to speak.
Zheng Hanxue's performance was still steady and unhurried as always. When things got to this point, an arrow had to be fired, and Zheng Hanxue couldn't help but be half-hearted.
At noon, Manu and Zheng Hanxue entered Yongding Village.
Yongding Village is a village in name, but it actually has walls and watchtowers made of wood at the four corners. It has a certain ability to protect itself when encountering bandits. This is the fundamental reason why Manu will not offend Zheng Hanxue too harshly.
, if Zheng Hanxue toughens his tactics, it will take a lot of effort for policemen like Pado to break through the village of Yongding.
But the Chinese always believe in being kind to others. When encountering deliberate difficulties, as long as the knife is not held at the neck, they will never be cruel. Therefore, Zheng Hanxue has always habitually backed down when faced with Manu's intimidation.
Let Manu become more and more strict.
When entering the village, if Manu had paid more attention, it would not be difficult to see the deep hatred in the eyes of the Yongding villagers on the wall of the village. In fact, even if he found out, Manu would not pay too much attention. In recent years, with the improvement of the Chinese social status,
Descending, Manu has seen this look a lot, just look at it, you won’t lose a piece of meat, you still have to pay the tax that should be paid, not even a penny is missing, Manu has long been immune to this level of attack
.
When we arrived at the ancestral hall, just as Zheng Han had said, the ancestral hall was full of people, all of whom were village elders from Yongding Village and nearby villages.
He is still competent, at least the young man sitting in the middle, Manu, looks very eye-catching.
Who are you? When I saw that my official did not bow to Manu when he entered the ancestral hall, everyone in the ancestral hall stood up to greet him and bowed their hands in salute. Only the young man in the middle did not move, which made Manu a little unhappy.
Of course, in the territory of Yongding Village, even if Manu is unhappy, he will not express it on his face. After serving as an official for many years, Manu the City Manu still has this.
The Chinese still have a great influence on Siam. Even Manu, a standard Siamese, is proficient in speaking Chinese, and it is also standard Mandarin, unlike Zheng Han who learned their Hokkien.
You are not qualified. The young man is Zheng Lingfeng. What he says can make people choke to death.
Ha, do you know who I am? Manu laughed angrily. Even if there is a city, this city is still limited. Perhaps it is because of his consistent strength in front of the Chinese that Manu lowered his vigilance. In short, Manu said this.
When I arrived, I really felt a sense of superiority.
I asked you to come here today to inform you that from now on, I will make the final decision regarding Pardo. Do you agree that Zheng Lingfeng should not talk nonsense with Manu and directly issue an ultimatum?
Who are you? Manu is no longer arrogant now. If the young man in front of him can say such a thing, he will naturally have the corresponding confidence. Manu does not dare to be arrogant until he knows the details of the young man.
Manu is not stupid to be able to become the county magistrate. Manu is well aware of the unfair treatment of Chinese people in Siam. Although he has always been strong in front of the Chinese in Siam, Manu knows very well in his heart that if Siam does
If it goes too far, Lan Fang will not ignore it. If Lan Fang wants to argue with Siam, the Siamese people will never be able to resist it.
So all this time, Manu has not dared to push the Chinese too hard. Should he raise taxes or ask for money?
No need to walk around.
If you can't tell, let me introduce myself. I am Lieutenant Colonel Zheng Lingfeng, commander of the fourth battalion of the 2nd Marine Brigade in Lanfang. Zheng Lingfeng does not hide his name and directly reveals his name.
The largest establishment of the Lanfang Marine Corps is at the brigade level, and below the brigade is the battalion level. Zheng Lingfeng can serve as the battalion commander in the Marine Corps and is already considered a senior officer.
Lan Lanfang Manu was a little distracted for a moment, and the thing she was most worried about finally happened.
Don't move. Before Manu could react, the police captain who followed Manu reacted quickly and immediately took out his revolver and pointed it at Zheng Lingfeng.
Be careful, calm down, don't use the gun. Zheng Lingfeng, who can fire, didn't even look at the policeman. Instead, a person next to the policeman took action like lightning and grabbed the magazine of the revolver. His words were calm and his hands were motionless.
The firing method of a revolver is that the magazine must be rotated first, and then the revolver can be fired. If the magazine cannot rotate, the revolver is almost like a toy.
Put the gun away, do you want to kill us? Manu came to his senses, turned around and cursed loudly.
Manu may not know what the establishment of the Marine Corps is, but he still hears the word lieutenant colonel and battalion commander clearly. Generally speaking, it is normal for a major to serve as a battalion commander, and a lieutenant colonel is considered a high-ranking officer. You can tell from the establishment that this is not the case.
General troops.
A senior military officer from Lan Fang appeared in Yongding Village in Siam. It is self-evident what this means.
Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, what do you mean by this? When Manu faced Zheng Lingfeng again, his expression was really bitter. It was really uglier than crying.
Whatever you think it means, that's what it means. Zheng Lingfeng was not polite, raised his eyebrows and made a look. The Marines waiting nearby immediately swarmed up and knocked all the policemen who followed Manu to the ground.
At this time, you can see the difference in combat effectiveness. The burly policeman still wanted to resist, but was shaken by a Marine who raised his hand. As soon as he raised his hand to block, he was punched hard in the ribs.
Immediately afterwards, countless kicks came over me, and I was immediately bruised and swollen, and I didn't even say the famous line about challenging someone to a one-on-one situation.
Challenge someone to a duel. This is not a martial arts contest. It’s serious to use the fastest speed to defeat your opponent. Whoever has guns and cannons will challenge you to a duel. You can’t be fooled by practicing martial arts.
You are declaring war, and you have to take responsibility. Manu was really shocked and frightened. Although those fists did not hit his body, the sound of the punches hitting the flesh was still frightening.
Yes, this is a declaration of war. Zheng Lingfeng finally stood up, a whole head taller than the thin Manu, and his condescending attitude was very intimidating: As for responsibility, I don't want to shirk it at all. The day you bullied our fathers and fellow villagers, you should have this.
consciousness
Beat him to death
Kill this bitch
For a moment, Manu truly felt the power of people's war.
