This soldier is really fooled by his fortitude. What the hell is going on? I'm just following orders. You old guy just came over and ignored me.
So the soldier didn't care what kind of officer Gang Yi was, he grabbed his Type 56 semi-automatic rifle from behind and pointed the gun directly at Gang Yi.
"This old guy is looking for death!"
Although the resolute government officials and followers had never seen the gun in the soldier's hand, which country it was from, they knew very well that it was a foreign gun.
Seeing that the soldier had a bad tone and had a gun drawn, they swarmed up and guarded the fortitude in the middle.
Other soldiers at the city gate also noticed something strange here, so about 10 people rushed over, each holding a 56 and a half and pointing at the group of people.
Up to now, Gang Yi was still not honest. He roared at the soldiers outside: "I am Gang Yi, the governor of Jiangsu. You should quickly put down your foreign guns, kneel down and plead guilty, otherwise I will convict you of treason."
What Gang Yi said does make sense. These soldiers, who didn't even have any rank, actually spoke to Gang Yi with foreign accents. According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty at that time, it was indeed no different from treason.
But following Liu Hai, these big-headed soldiers had become very domineering. Regardless of whether they rebelled or not, a group of people kept pushing in with guns. In the end, the resolute guards could only retreat step by step, and then formed a circle,
Fortitude protects you behind you.
During this commotion, a senior general walked in from outside the city gate. All the soldiers immediately stood at attention and saluted when they saw this man. This was none other than Ye Faguang, the commander of the 2nd Division of the Hunan Army.
Ye Faguang came to the city gate, looked at the situation on both sides, and then asked: "What's going on?"
The squad leader in charge at the city gate immediately stepped forward and reported to Ye Faguang: "Report to the division commander, these people came to the city gate to beat the soldiers for no reason, so we surrounded them. Just when we were about to disarm, division commander came."
Gangyi could see clearly from behind, and the person in front of him should be the one in charge, so he pushed aside the government officials who were protecting him, came to the front and said to Ye Faguang: "I am Gangyi, the governor of Jiangsu, who are you, and why did you enter Suzhou without permission?
Check the people passing by."
Ye Faguang looked at the Jiangsu governor in front of him with some disdain in his heart. He didn't know how this person's official could not clearly see the current situation.
Although Ye Faguang looked down upon him a little, he still bowed his hands to him according to the rules and said: "I am Ye Faguang, commander of the 2nd Division of the Hunan Army, who has been ordered by the Governor to take over the Suzhou city defense so that the Green Battalion can go to Nanjing to reorganize."
Do you understand Gangyi? Liu Hai received his official document? For Jiangsu's tax revenue, so on the surface, he came for Green Camp, but in fact he came to check the tax bank.
But aren't you ready to give in just like that? He looked Ye Faguang up and down, and then said to him seriously: "Jiangsu Green Camp is the guarantee of Jiangsu Province. Without Green Camp, what should I do if someone makes trouble? I see you.
It's better to withdraw our troops and go back and tell the Governor that I'm sorry."
After hearing what the other party said, Ye Faguang stared and said: "Although Luying is under the jurisdiction of the governor of Jiangsu, according to the court rules? The governor also has the right to dispatch? Now that you are holding on to Luying, do you want to oust the governor and make yourself the king?"
Gangyi's face was full of anger after hearing this, "How dare you, a little officer, to frame me falsely? Don't you know that I am a disciple of the Eight Banners?"
Ye Faguang didn't want to quarrel with him here? He said directly: "The Governor has ordered all the green battalions in Jiangsu to go to Nanjing immediately to accept reorganization. The defense of Jiangsu will be temporarily handled by our 2nd Division of the Hunan Army."
After Ye Faguang said this, he directly said to the adjutant next to him: "You will send people to all parts of Green Camp now to pass the order. If they obey the order and go to Nanjing, just return it. If they are disobeying the order, make it clear to them.
The Hunan Army will immediately send troops to destroy them."
After hearing Ye Faguang's words, the adjutant immediately turned around and went out to deliver the order.
After listening to Ye Faguang's order, Gangyi, who was standing opposite Ye Faguang, was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Ye Faguang and said: "You are so reckless. Do you still have the imperial court? Is there a Qing Dynasty?"
Ye Guangfa was not a fool. When he heard Gangyi's accusation, he immediately raised his fists and saluted in the direction of Beijing, and then said: "I, Ye Faguang, am a minister of the imperial court, and naturally serve the orders of the Qing Dynasty. But you, Lord Gangyi,
Disrespecting the governor's orders means showing contempt for the imperial court."
He looked at the person in front of him fiercely and firmly remembered his appearance in his heart. Then without saying anything else, he left the city gate with a flick of his sleeves and went back to the Jiangsu Governor's Yamen.
Ye Faguang frowned when he saw the resolute man going away. In fact, Ye Faguang also had a grudge against Liu Hai for disobeying the imperial order.
What's more, this time Liu Hai dared to besiege Suzhou for tax and money matters, which made Ye Faguang even more worried about Liu Hai's future.
Gangyi returned to the governor's Yamen and immediately wrote a memorial. On the one hand, he sent someone to send it to the capital, and on the other hand, he reported to the court in advance by telegram.
Gangyi was afraid that the memorial he wrote would be intercepted by his bangs, so he had this pair of insurance.
Not to mention how the imperial court treated Gang Yi's memorial, on the ground in Jiangsu, as the 2nd Division of the Hunan Army took control of Suzhou, the capital of Jiangsu, all the green battalions in Jiangsu also saw the direction of the wind, so they no longer dared to encircle and suppress Liu Hai's military order.
He honestly took his troops to Nanjing to reorganize.
In addition, government offices across Jiangsu have also seen clearly that Liu Hai is now the boss in the Liangjiang area.
Therefore, the broken silver from various places that was originally intended to be shipped to Suzhou was diverted and shipped to Nanjing.
Only in the end did Gang Yi realize that his orders could not even be issued from the Suzhou Governor's Yamen.
Besides, Liu Hai brought all the green camps in the Liangjiang area to the vicinity of Nanjing. After counting, he found that there were about 150,000 to 60,000 troops, and there were also some old, weak, sick and disabled among them.
This is because the Liangjiang area is rich, so it can support so many people. If it is in a poor province, a province with 10,000 or 20,000 green camps would be a huge burden.
Liu Hai then followed the previous method of training the Hunan army, eliminating all the old and weak, and finally there were still 130,000 people left.
Liu Hai divided these people into 13 divisions according to the establishment of the Hunan Army, and then sent a company commander to each company to take charge of the army.
After barely controlling these 130,000 people, Liu Hai began to conduct basic training on them.
After several months of training, these Green Camp soldiers barely reached Liu Hai's standards. For the Qing Dynasty, these people could be regarded as qualified soldiers. Even if they were pulled out and compared with the second-rate troops of the great powers, they would not be any worse.
During this training, Liu Hai returned to modern times. He wanted to buy a batch of guns and ammunition from the present. Otherwise, these hundreds of thousands of people would not have weapons to use.
Although Liu Hai has mostly stayed in the Qing Dynasty plane in the past few months, he still returns to modern times once a month as agreed to trade iron ore and oil.
This time Liu Hai just came back and said hello to his wife Wang Fang as usual.
Zhang Tao on the other side quickly got the news and immediately called Liu Hai to tell Liu Hai that he wanted to come to the villa.
Liu Hai was not surprised at all that Zhang Tao knew about his return so soon. It would be strange if the country did not monitor him.
However, Liu Hai does not have any objection to this. Firstly, he spends most of his time in the Qing Dynasty plane, and secondly, what he does is indeed a bit dangerous. The surveillance of these countries can also ensure his own safety in modern times.
Free labor, what’s not to like about bangs?
Wang Fang was originally handling affairs in the company, and when she learned that Liu Hai was back, she immediately drove back to the villa. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Liu Hai eating a bucket of instant noodles there.
Although delicacies in ancient times were all natural, to be honest, there is a slight gap in taste compared to the instant noodles made with various flavors today.
But Wang Fang didn't think so. How much pain did she think Liu Hai had suffered outside? So she came to Liu Hai carefully and looked at Liu Hai eating instant noodles, with tears in her eyes.
Liu Hai was eating when he felt Wang Fang sitting next to him, so he nodded to her, but after a while, Wang Fang began to sob.
When Liu Hai heard Wang Fang sobbing, he quickly put down the instant noodles, turned around and asked, "What's going on? I've only been away for a few days, is someone bullying you?"
When Wang Fang heard Liu Hai's concern, she felt sweet in her heart. Apart from the fact that Liu Hai often went on business trips and never saw anyone, he was good at everything else. He didn't smoke, drink, or have sex with women. He looked like a model husband.
"Where is it?"
"Then why are you crying?"
Wang Fang did not answer, but sat opposite Liu Hai, looked at him carefully, and then said: "I think you are working too hard. If it doesn't work, let's stop doing it. The money we earn now is enough for us."
Live this life."
If Liu Hai had more than a billion dollars in his hands before, he would naturally want to live a comfortable life resting on his money.
But now that Liu Hai has a huge foundation in the Qing Dynasty, he has already developed the ambitions that a man should have in his heart. How can he live a life of money just like before?
"Don't worry, are you tired? With a business as big as ours, how can we just say it's over? If I really can't hold on anymore, I will naturally retire and rest, but I'm still young now and I still need to work hard.
.”
Wang Fang could only nod her head after hearing this. She also understood the man's ambition. He would definitely not be willing to let Liu Hai accompany her to eat and wait for death.
While the two were talking, the doorbell rang outside, and Wang Fang said unhappily, "Why did you come back just now?"
It seems that Wang Fang has also understood Zhang Tao's habits. Every time Liu Hai comes back, he is the first person to visit.
Liu Hai shook his head and stood up, went to the door in person and opened the door for Zhang Tao, then led him into the living room.
After they sat down, Wang Fang poured tea for them both, and then hid in the study.
After Wang Fang left, Zhang Tao couldn't wait to say: "Those battleships of yours have been refitted, and their electronic systems have reached the standards of the 1960s and 1970s. When will you take delivery of them?"
When Liu Hai heard the news, he almost jumped up with excitement. If these warships are completed, they can become his trump card. In the Qing Dynasty, no matter which country dares to deal with him, as long as these warships are deployed, they will be able to defeat him. It can make him walk around without eating.
"Okay, I will go over and take over these warships in two days. Also, when will the two Russian cruisers be refitted? Will they not be finished as soon as they are refitted?"
After hearing this, Zhang Tao hurriedly said: "I'm keeping an eye on this matter for you. I've already understood it. Russia is quite interesting this time. It even installed several sets of anti-ship missile launchers on the two cruisers. Seeing that It will be finished soon.”
When Zhang Tao said this, he glanced at Liu Hai and said helplessly: "However, due to the addition of new equipment, they require an additional US$50 million for each warship for modification costs."
