Chapter 74 A Myriad of Things

"Thank you, Grandpa." Zhao Shouhong's whole body warmed up, and at this moment an emotion called moving filled his whole body, this is the feeling of a loved one.Although he lived with his parents before, they were only busy with politics and didn't care about him at all, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to live in a space hospital.Now this old man, who is over seventy years old, made him feel extremely warm family affection, which made him feel the care of his family for the first time in his life. At this time, his eye circles were already slightly moist.

"Hurry up, go back and change into casual clothes, I'll take you to eat the most famous breakfast in the imperial capital." Zhao Erzhen greeted Zhao Shouhong who stopped because of deep thought.

"It's Grandpa." Zhao Shouhong wiped away the moisture from the corners of his eyes, and ran a few steps to follow.At this time, the newborn sun had just passed over the roof, and the dazzling sunlight shone warmly on their bodies, completely dispelling the chill in their bodies.Zhao Shouhong walked side by side with his grandfather, and two long shadows slanted behind them, against the sparkling Jinshui River, as if to indicate that the history of Hualan Kingdom will enter an unpredictable turning point at this moment .

"Wow, what is this? It's obviously pot water." Zhao Shouhong vomited on the ground just after taking a sip, and couldn't help retching. Fortunately, he hadn't eaten anything else, otherwise he would vomit more than just clear water.

Zhao Erzhen happily drank from the bowl and smiled at Zhao Shouhong, "This is the most famous soybean juice in the capital city. I wasn't used to it at first, but when I get used to it, you will miss it if you don't drink it for a day." panic."

"Forget it, I won't think about it if I don't drink it for the rest of my life. It's not a matter of getting used to it. I won't be able to eat breakfast if I drink this thing. Let me have a bowl of sweet soy milk." Zhao Shouhong didn't dare to touch it again. The bowl of soybean juice on the table is gone.After breakfast, the officials of various ministries in the imperial capital were about to go to work. Even Zhang Xiaoda who had just entered the Military Aircraft Department was busy. Only officials from other provinces like Zhao Shouhong would be idle and didn't know what to do.

Zhao Shouhong naturally wouldn't do nothing, he hid at home and began to draft his new development plan.Zhao Shouhong found many problems just after writing a few strokes. Although the factory in his hand is developing at a high speed, there are too many things missing, so he wants to contact Shen Ruoxue again.

"Ruoxue, what are you doing?" Zhao Shouhong asked Shen Ruoxue's optical brain through his personal optical brain.

"Of course it's dinner, what else can I do?" Shen Ruoxue said.

Only then did Zhao Shouhong remember that the difference between White Eagle Country and Hualan Country was more than ten hours. "I just wanted to draft a development plan, and found that there are too many things missing."

"It's up to you to say? You've just started your business, and you're still far from becoming an industrial powerhouse. Be patient." Shen Ruoxue said.

"I have patience, but I just need your help. Have all your funds been invested in the financial market? Is there any money that can help me buy things?" Zhao Shouhong said.

"Let's talk, you still have money to buy that little thing." Shen Ruoxue said quite richly.

"It seems that you are very rich. How much money have you made recently?" Shen Ruoxue spoke so loudly that Zhao Shouhong couldn't figure it out.

"It's enough for you, tell me what you need." Shen Ruoxue replied with a smile, but never mentioned how much money she made.

"Probably need a glass factory to help me manufacture electron tubes, in addition to a complete set of machine tools for making electrical equipment, it would be best to recruit a group of engineers. We can train scientists ourselves, but you also know that cyborgs have no hands-on ability. It is impossible to train technicians and engineers. What's more, the knowledge of the backup cyborgs belongs to civilian knowledge, and military technology is strictly confidential, so even if my cyborgs cultivate talents, they still cannot design warship cannons, or even a rifle .” Zhao Shouhong sighed.

"Okay, I will contact you, and it will arrive in about two or three months." Shen Ruoxue said.

"Thank you very much. I will go to work first, and remember to help me get a batch of the best industrial machine tools. This is the foundation of industry." Zhao Shouhong hung up after finishing speaking.

Shen Ruoxue, who was leaning against the dining table, turned off the optical brain communication. She looked at the steak on the plate and sighed: "This guy is simply a workaholic. The connection is a work problem, and he doesn't say a word of heart-warming. The guy who doesn't understand the style , do you care that I will die after a few words?" Shen Ruoxue angrily cut the beef with a knife, as if she wanted to scatter all her anger on the steaming steak, until the steak turned into a horrible piece of minced meat, she His breath calmed down a little.

No matter how bad Shen Ruoxue's mood was, it couldn't affect him who was far away in the imperial capital. At this time, Zhao Shouhong was boring himself in the room, writing plans and calculating possible gains and losses.Now the Jin court seems to have begun to pay attention to him. Today, the empress dowager deliberately seized his military power, which is the beginning of preventing him.In the future, I must keep a low profile and stay away from military power as much as possible until my wings are full.

For the control of the army, we will need to rely on the entire party organization of the Vanguard Party in the future. I believe that after in-depth education of those students in the armed forces school with their own revolutionary ideas, they will definitely become soldiers loyal to themselves.When these people enter the army and firmly control the middle and lower ranks, it will be impossible for the upper ranks to separate themselves from themselves.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shouhong began to figure out what kind of officers he would get from the new army.What he needs are high-quality officers, commanders who will support his own military power before the students in the military equipment school grow up.

In order for these commanders to be truly useful, they must meet two conditions. The first is to be truly capable. They must be able to command the army while having excellent commanding skills, and they can even bring out a group of new officers for themselves. Come.The second is to be able to be won over and become an officer loyal to oneself so that he can control the army by himself.

It is very simple to reach the first point. With the history book in hand, Zhao Shouhong can find all the talents that have not yet been tapped.As for the second point, it's easy to handle. As long as he specifically finds low-level officers who are not yet ambitious and promotes them quickly, these people will definitely be grateful to him, and it will be easier to achieve the possibility of being loyal to him.

It was impossible for Zhao Shouhong to take away too many people, so he began to make a list and then choose among them.The first one that must be obtained is Wu Ziyu, who is now only in front of the battalion management.Wu Ziyu is from Penglai, Qilu. He just turned 32 years old this year. He was born as a scholar. Although he only studied in the surveying and mapping department of the Baoding Army Rapid Academy for one year, he is a rare general with his extraordinary intelligence. .

Chapter 75 Selecting Talent

Since joining the army in 1898, Wu Ziyu had gone deep into Mingbei alone to participate in the espionage work of the Japanese army, and obtained a lot of information several times.During the period, he was even captured by the Raksha army, but refused to confess. After being sentenced to death, he jumped out of the car and escaped. After the war, he was not only promoted to the rank of captain, but also awarded honors by the Japanese army.

Although Wu Ziyu can be regarded as a legendary figure with military exploits, since the new army in the Northern Territory has just been established, officers at all levels are already full, and it is very difficult to be promoted quickly. At this time, as long as Zhao Shouhong has the grace to know him, It is not difficult to collect for your own use.

In addition, what he wanted most was the five tiger generals who were once all-powerful under Feng Yuxiang.Zhang Zhijiang was born in Liu Laozhuang, Yanshan, Zhili.In the early years, he was a boy for the exam, and the Houjin government formed a new army to implement the conscription system. Liu Laozhuang had only a few candidates, and his father, being a village official, had to let him make up the number.

After entering the Northern Territory Army, Zhang Zhijiang was selected into the Standing Army Academy Battalion to learn cavalry. He was promoted quickly because of his proficiency in writing and ink, but now he is only a sentinel in the First Mixed Cavalry Battalion of the Northern Territory.Just 24 years old, Zhang Zhijiang respects morality and righteousness, acts vigorously and decisively, and has gradually revealed his demeanor as the leader of the five tiger generals of the Northwest Army.

Song Zheyuan was also one of the Five Tiger Generals. Feng Yuxiang once praised him for his bravery and calmness, his loyalty and diligence, his meticulousness in dealing with situations, and his skillful military training. I am afraid that the people in the future will be more familiar with this man because of the 29th Army’s Great Wall War of Resistance and the powerful swordsman team that shocked the enemy.Now that he has just joined the Northern Territory New Army and is still a recruit, it is very easy for Zhao Shouhong to ask him to come over.

Lu Zhonglin was in the same situation as Song Zheyuan. He was from Beiluzhuang, Dingzhou. Later, he was one of Feng Yuxiang's Five Tiger Generals. He is serving as a soldier in the Sixth Town of the New Army.

Of course, Zhao Shouhong couldn't take away all of Feng Yuxiang's capable men in the future, because Feng Yuxiang would be a very important pawn in his plan and would hold a pivotal position, so he turned his attention elsewhere.

Qi Xieyuan was not a highly regarded person in history. His record of repeated defeats and his post as the commander of the North China Appeasement Army, which was a puppet regime, was a person who received more infamy than praise.However, Zhao Shouhong, Qi Xieyuan, has conducted in-depth research. He found that this person is not good at strategy and dispatching troops, but he is most proficient in artillery.

Qi Xieyuan graduated from the Artillery Department of the Northern Territory Army Academy. After graduation, he began to make rapid progress. In 1916, he became the commander of the Sixth Division of the Northern Territory. This is definitely related to Duan Ruiquan, who is also proficient in artillery skills. That is to say, if his artillery skills are not very good , and won't be promoted quickly because of Duan Ruiquan's appreciation.

Of course, these are all things to say, now Qi Xieyuan is just a reserve officer who has just graduated, and he is only in front of an artillery shed, and Duan Ruiquan, who appreciates him, has not yet become popular, so it is not difficult to get this person in his hands.

The last thing Zhao Shouhong wants is Pang Bingxun. This person graduated from Mingbei Surveying and Mapping School. He can become a lame general in the melee of warlords. Commander and governor, it can be seen that he has real skills.What made Zhao Shouhong more important was that this person studied surveying and mapping, and he would be a rare staff officer. Zhao Shouhong hoped that he could lead a group of staff officers to his army.

The list of personnel was listed in one go, so Zhao Shouhong naturally had to hurry up and do this.He didn't even eat lunch, and hurried to the War Department.Just as he was going out, Zhao Shouhong was stopped by someone. He was wearing a black tuxedo, a tall top hat, and holding a civilized stick in his hand. No matter how he looked, he looked like a second devil.

Seeing Zhao Shouhong going out, this person smiled and went forward to salute: "Master Zhao, I am just looking for you, Zhang Zongxiang, who works in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and I am here to take you to the Saer Kingdom Legation at the request of Lord Shangshu To explain the situation. Originally, Master Shang Shu was unwilling to do this, but the Empress Dowager issued an order, so we had no choice but to do so."

Zhao Shouhong couldn't help but smile, for an ordinary official like him to negotiate with a country's diplomatic issues, it can be seen how much the imperial court is afraid of the people of the Western Continent. Isn't this tantamount to making himself a scapegoat?For this situation, Zhao Shouhong was mentally prepared, and he waved his hand without changing his face: "Then you lead the way." He turned his head to Wang Lingji, the company commander of the guard behind him, and said, "Go and pick two for me." The people in the class take it, and go with me."

"Master Zhao, you must not, take soldiers to the legation, isn't this a threat of force?" Zhang Zongxiang was startled, and quickly waved his hand to stop: "Master Yuan has already helped you dredge your joints. Everything has been taken care of, as long as you go and explain a little bit."

Zhao Shouhong couldn't help praising secretly, Yuan Kai really knows how to be a man, and he even wins himself over like this.However, Zhao Shouhong reckoned that Yuan Kai's wooing him was more likely because of his family. There were a few high-ranking officials from the grandparents, so he couldn't do without getting closer.

Even so, Zhao Shouhong is not someone who puts his own fate in the hands of others, he still waved his hand and said, "It's normal for me to take the guards out, not to mention that these people will only wait outside and will not enter the legation."

"But..." Zhang Zongxiang wanted to say something else.

Zhao Shouhong said: "I don't understand your diplomatic etiquette. If you are engaged in diplomacy, you should send a diplomat there. Why bother to find me. If you let me go, you must follow my rules."

"Okay, my lord will come with me." Zhang Zongxiang could only nod his head in agreement, and the two sat in sedan chairs and headed towards the legation. In order to ensure Zhao Shouhong's safety, Wang Lingji actually brought two platoons of soldiers.The guards of Sa'er Kingdom saw their formation from a long distance, and the only ten guards in the legation suddenly became tense.Although after the Gengzi Kingdom Change, all countries had troops stationed in the legation area, they were in the barracks, and the barracks were not close to the legation.

Seeing dozens of soldiers coming, the military attache of the embassy quickly wrote a note and asked a soldier to take it with him to the barracks to gather soldiers from the Sar country for reinforcements.When the two sedan chairs landed in front of the embassy, ​​the soldiers of Sa'er were sweating nervously, but they were relieved when they saw Zhao Shouhong and Zhang Zongxiang enter the embassy alone, bringing only two people with them.Looking at the dozens of Hualan soldiers standing outside the embassy, ​​they all stood upright on both sides with their chests and heads held high, and none of them shook at all, showing their excellent military qualities.

Chapter 76 Confrontation at the Embassy

Zhao Shouhong first used this method to give the Saar people a bad impression, and then he followed Zhang Zongxiang into the legation with a smile on his face.

"Master Zhang, I think you should explain why there are so many soldiers in front of my embassy." After receiving the news, Zhu Erdian's first words when he saw Zhang Zongxiang were to question those soldiers.

Zhang Zongxiang said with a troubled face: "This is none of my business, Mr. Minister. Those soldiers are the guards of Mr. Zhao."

"Master Zhao? Has your Ministry of Civil Affairs got any new diplomats?" Zhu Erdian looked Zhao Shouhong up and down, his eyes full of surprise.

"No, Mr. Zhao is not an official of our Ministry of Civil Affairs. He made a special trip to explain the conflict between the two sides in the western Xinjiang area." Zhang Zongxiang explained.

"Is he the one who rudely attacked our countrymen?" Zhu Erdian asked in surprise.

"Be careful what you say, old man." Zhao Shouhong gave Zhu Erdian a fierce look and said in fluent Saar.In this world, one is afraid of being stunned, and he is afraid of death. Now that he is the weaker side, he must first overwhelm the other party in terms of momentum, otherwise he may suffer a disadvantage this time.What's more, Zhao Shouhong knows that as his power grows, he will definitely become the object of attention from all countries. He wants to leave the Saar people with a reckless imagination before, so as to avoid excessive attention.

Zhang Zongxiang was so frightened by Zhao Shouhong's words that he swallowed wildly. He was completely unprepared for this situation.For a long time, the officials of the Later Jin Dynasty were submissive when they saw the foreign envoys, for fear that something would offend the other party.But today Zhao Shouhong did the opposite, totally disregarding Minister Saar, and even called him an old man.

Zhu Erdian can also hear the meaning of Zhao Shouhong's words. He has been a minister of Hualan Kingdom for many years, and he is already a Hualan Tong who is familiar with Hualan language.Zhu Erdian was also taken aback by Zhao Shouhong's unexpected attitude, and then he felt an evil fire rushing upwards.He couldn't stand being scolded by a young official from a weak country.

At this time, Zhao Shouhong seemed to have turned into a hooligan. He looked at Zhu Erdian and said, "I have a lot of doubts about these so-called expatriates who are holding guns and driving out the people of our country. Is it normal for people in your country to commit crimes with guns?" What's more, this is in our country and we need to abide by the laws of our country. As a local official, it is normal for me to give a little punishment."

"You are slandering the Saar Empire. You have to pay the price. Our expatriates are unarmed and have no weapons at all." Zhu Erdian snorted coldly.
