Heroes of the War of Resistance

What's more, Brook also saw some well-built permanent positions near some important hills and roads around the inner city.Many of the large-caliber artillery purchased by Hu Biao from Menia earlier were deployed on these positions.

Seen from the air, these hills covered with grass and trees can't see anything different at all.But if there are troops, if they try to pass through the mountain road, they will be hit hard, and it will become extremely difficult to capture these positions.

The troops stationed at the Zhenning Mansion are completely different in temperament and appearance from the colonial government troops that Brook has seen.What Brook admires the most is that these troops under Hu Biao's command are all hidden and extremely secretive.

If he hadn't been Hu Biao's close friend and helped Hu Biao a lot, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to know these things!

When the group arrived in Xilong, Lin Yashi and the others were also shocked when they saw Xilong City, which was obviously different from other county towns.In their view, the career Hu Biao started in the southwest was indeed far beyond their expectations.

In just two or three years, a small remote county town that was originally poor and backward has been developed into a commercial center in the three provinces today.The number of horse teams and vehicles that travel to and from Shillong City every day is also beyond imagination.

Perhaps because the end of the year is approaching, there are many more horse teams and vehicles that come to purchase goods than before.The major shops located in the city are booming during this period of time.Especially in the shops of government-owned factories, there are more horse teams waiting to pick up the goods.

Everyone knows that this is the last chance to make money this year. Many merchants under the Chamber of Commerce will seize the opportunity to purchase more goods and then sell them to other places.Going back and forth, these caravans in the Southwest can make a lot of money.

Back at the forest manor in Shillong, Brooke, who planned to spend the New Year with him, said enviously, "Hu, it feels so good to live in this kind of place! Can I build a manor like this next to it? "

"Forget it! I don't think I will live in the manor here for long. If you really like this kind of building, when you arrive in Zhenning Mansion, I'll have someone build it for you, right next door to my house. In this way, you How do you feel?"

"Okay! I also really want to feel what it's like to be your neighbor."

"Then you have to bring your family over first. I heard from Xiaoya that you are coming to Asia this time, it seems like you are running away from marriage!"

"How is it possible! I just don't want to get married so early, and I don't like the girl they introduced to me at all. You know, I hate that kind of marriage-style wedding, and I envy you and Lin's free love even more!"

When it comes to marriage, Brooke, who is older than Hu Biao, is also full of depression.Although it can't be said that he escaped marriage, but this time he came to the Southwest, he was indeed a little afraid of facing the family's urging marriage.Speaking of this, Brooke was also very depressed.

Fortunately, Hu Biao can also understand that marriage is really nothing new for people in the upper class.But for an adventurous young man like Brook, he somewhat dislikes this combination of interests.

After hearing Brooke's complaints, Hu Biao also smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are best friends, and even better buddies. If you really don't want to go back, I will definitely take good care of you. In fact, I really need A man who knows diplomacy.

I believe you have seen this journey. Although my influence has developed well, it is still subject to considerable restrictions.If you can stay, you can also deal with the colonial government for me.Although Nuvik can do this, his identity is still a little sensitive.

Based on my analysis of the situation, even more incredible events should happen next year.Although Fusang people are very honest now, I believe they will make bigger moves next year.Fusang, who has embarked on the road of crazy domination, is hard to stop! "

Regarding Hu Biao's invitation, Brook said with a smile: "That's right! I am your most loyal and trustworthy friend, and I am honored to be your chief diplomat. I also want to see that you can be here in the future." What a situation has been created!"

Even though Hu Biao never admitted that he was a warlord, in Brooke's view, Hu Biao was already a warlord.As long as he is given enough time, Brook believes that with the current situation, Hu Biao is likely to control the entire colony.

The settlements near the southwest have already relocated a large number of domestic people.The Daman region that old Ivan was in charge of has now become a paradise where many exiled ethnic groups gather.For these people, Hu Biao still gave proper placement.

In time, the exiled ethnic groups who have lived here for a long time and fully enjoy the right to independence and freedom certainly do not want to be driven away again.In this case, they will definitely support Hu Biao, and let Hu Biao fight for their right to freedom and independence.

The colonial government that controls this area is not unaware of old Ivan's plans.The problem is, when they realized this situation, it was too late to stop it, and they didn't even dare to stop it at all.That would only make the colony more chaotic.

In addition, the country can't provide any help at the moment, and the army stationed and formed by the colonial government alone can hardly withstand the full-scale counterattack of old Ivan.Once there is unrest in the colonies, the situation will become more difficult to control.

Fortunately, at this stage, old Ivan is still very honest, and even often stabilizes the local situation for the colonial government.The tax that should be paid is quite a lot, which makes the colonial government happy but also worried.

Brook, who also saw these situations, also hoped to take advantage of Hu Biao's invitation to have more contact with Hu Biao's direct subordinates.Use the title of chief diplomat to expand the family's influence in Asia.

And Brook also believed that England and France, who had no time to care about the colonies, were still willing to deal with him as a Menian.If the family can continue to expand its influence in Asia, Brooke believes that the family will become more prosperous in the future.

Compared with those old families in Menia, the time for the Brook family to rise is too short, so that the background is insufficient.As the heir of the family, Brooke also has responsibilities and responsibilities to lead the family into a truly world-class wealthy family.

Hu Biao has ambitions, so why doesn't Brook, who is also young and vigorous, have no ambitions?Now that Hu Biao took the initiative to provide him with a platform and opportunities, how could Brook give up?As far as Brooke is concerned, he already knows that there is meat to follow Hu Biao!

The first and third chapters of the main text

As Hu Biao's housekeeper, Du Youfu's family finally realized what it means to be busy during this period of time.Du Youfu, who used to feel idle all year round, has also felt much more energetic in the past few days, and feels that this family finally has the taste of a rich family.

It's just that for Hu Biao as the owner, the manor, which was originally thought to be a bit too big, now seems a bit small.After organizing the New Year's Eve party like last year, Hu Biao suddenly found that the manor couldn't accommodate so many people.

The number of subordinates participating in the party has increased, and they are also aware that Hu Biao's strength is constantly expanding.Lin Yashi, who had just returned to the manor, also officially appeared as the hostess during this time, and brought out her son who was used to the weather here by the way.

Although Hu Biao didn't want to engage in a feudal system, in the eyes of these direct subordinates, the appearance of Hu Biao's son also meant that their team had an heir again.Even if something happened to Hu Biao, the team would not be in chaos.

Seeing this scene, Hu Biao also sighed speechlessly: "I really haven't thought about this!"

But thinking about it carefully, the wolf army has expanded from nothing to the present, and it is indeed a team pulled together by Hu Biao.No one can replace him except that he can command the armed forces.In a sense, the wolf army is indeed a bit of a private army.

Brooke, who was left behind as the chief diplomat, was also extremely shocked: "Hu, how many troops have you developed now? How do I think, apart from the colony, you still have many troops in the country?"

"If someone else asked me this question, I would definitely have shot him with a single shot. Forget what you said. I just hope that you can know these internal secrets yourself, and don't talk about them. Now, we have to keep a low profile development, understand?"

"Well! Thank you for your trust! I am your most loyal friend, and I will definitely keep a secret for you!"

"The wolf army currently has four main divisions, each of which has a strength of nearly 2 troops, including an artillery regiment. Excluding these four main divisions, the rest of the second-line troops are more numerous, adding up to about 10 troops. About ten thousand people."

"Oh Maiga! So you now have nearly 20 troops?"

"Yes! Do you think there are many? Don't forget how many troops our real opponent has. In my plan, the Wolf Army must double its size this year. Only in this way can we deal with the large-scale attack of the Fusang people! "

Seeing Brook's surprised expression, Hu Biao suddenly felt a little guilty for cheating this guy.Fortunately, Hu Biao knows that there are some things he doesn't say, and I believe Brook will know in the future that the four main divisions are no longer a secret.

In fact, the number of troops under Hu Biao's jurisdiction today should exceed 30.Special Operations Brigade, Eagle Strike Brigade, Sea Eagle and Sea Wolf Commando, Engineering Corps, etc. These units are actually the elite of the Wolf Army.

As for the armed forces behind enemy lines like guerrillas, there are so many that it is difficult to count.But the reality is that Hu Biao still thinks that the number of troops is not too many, and if they are allocated to areas that need to be defended, it may not be enough to pull all these troops over.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the year-end gathering, Hu Biao proposed the decision to establish a military academy in Zhenning Prefecture. In addition to the military academy, he would also open medical schools and other institutions closely related to the army to further train military talents.

The flight school that used to be under the responsibility of the Eagle Strike Brigade will move to Zhenning Mansion in the next year, where there will be a dedicated flight school to train more pilots in a relatively professional and systematic way, and then distribute them to each flight brigade.

Listening to Hu Biao's plan for the coming year, the subordinates who came to the party also felt that the burden on their shoulders was still heavy, but more subordinates still felt full of expectations.Because the wolf army continues to expand, their positions will continue to increase.

As Hu Biao told them before, an officer who does not want to be a general is not a good officer.For these military officers above the regiment level, who wouldn't want to be promoted to division commander?Doesn't being a division commander mean becoming a general?

Taking advantage of the opportunity to summon his subordinates, Hu Biao also began to arrange for Lin Yashi, as the general's wife, to visit the villages where the martyrs lived on Hu Biao's behalf.For such an arrangement, Lin Yashi did not intend to refuse in the slightest.

As for Nina, Hu Biao also told her that in the future, old Ivan's dealings with foreigners and immigrants will be handed over to Nina.This also means that Nina's position in the Hu family is also very stable.

What everyone didn't expect was that when preparing for dinner on the evening of the New Year's Eve, Nina felt sick as soon as she got to the table.Just when Hu Biao was worried that she was not feeling well, Lin Yashi said with joy on her face: "Uncle Fu, please call the doctor!"

Sure enough, after the doctor who lived near the manor came, the doctor who is good at Chinese medicine also said happily: "Congratulations, general, it's a happy pulse, and it shouldn't take long! I will give your lady some tonic later. Medicine for the body."

"Thank you! Thank you! Uncle Fu, give the doctor a red envelope, and everyone in the manor will get an extra salary for three months!"

"Thank you, master! Congratulations to the second lady!"

Hearing that she was finally pregnant, Nina also cried with joy: "Honey, do I really have a baby?"

"Well! You have to believe the doctor, you are really pregnant with the baby. How about it? I told you a long time ago, so that you don't have any psychological burden. You will definitely have what you should have. Look at this, the baby is in our I got pregnant on the way back!"

Remembering that on the way back from the farm, she was dragged by Hu Biao to mess around with Lin Yashi, Nina also felt that it was impossible to blush.But she knew in her heart that during those nights, Hu Biao poured all the nutrition into her body.

Just like Lin Yashi was pregnant with a child, no matter how hard she tried to stay at home, it didn't seem to work.But when she went abroad by boat, she got pregnant with the child instead.Being pregnant with a child is really a bit overwhelming.

Originally, Hu Biao also wanted to invite old Ivan to celebrate the Spring Festival with him, but Nuvic just chose a girl as his wife a few years ago.After receiving Hu Biao's approval and blessing, Nuvic really stayed on the farm, working hard to make people!
