I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

In the end, it must be spent everywhere and not satisfied everywhere.

"Luxuries" such as electrocardiograms, drones, and tower cranes are even more unlikely to be included in the budget.

Therefore, the most ideal solution is naturally to manage money reasonably, and find a way to make money with money.

Buying cameras and projectors to start the film industry, isn't this a way to earn cultural value with cultural value?

However, Zhu Fugui's idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Just like playing "Civilization 5", when you want to plant a wave of fields and quickly climb technology to grab wonders, there will always be blind thieves to spoil your good deeds.

Zhu Fugui brushed the treasure map of the hills and deserts countless times. On the eve of the bell ringing in the ancient city of Petra, the city was trampled by the war-crazed cavalry.

This time, the same thing happened to Daming again.

Zhu Fugui was ready to place an order to buy equipment to become a movie star, but something bad happened to Lincoln, who had never confronted him head-to-head.

Faced with increasing domestic and international pressure, Lincoln had to mobilize 7.5 federal troops and volunteer militias from various states, and marched to Nebraska in mighty force.

This Nima!

Commander Lincoln really can't do anything, No. 1 spoiler!

To be honest, Zhu Fugui basically guessed what Lincoln was planning.

This guy didn't intend to fight at all!

Because Zhu Fugui didn't even get the news from the defenders at Xinshan Pass, but from the news in the "Washington Times"!

Local newspapers in Washington dubbed the coalition forces, commanded by William Tecuse Sherman, the "New Crusade."

They compared the suddenly emerging Ming Dynasty to the Ottoman Turks who threatened European civilization in the Middle Ages, and claimed that Millikin was the chosen place, and General Sherman would fight for God and drive the barbaric yellow-skinned monkeys out of the Pacific Ocean.

However, this army with at least 2 cavalry set out from mid-January to the end of February, not even a hair appeared in Daming's field of vision.

This shows that this so-called "New Crusade" probably stopped in Nebraska.

Rather than attacking Ming Dynasty, it is better to say that they are ready to go south to Kansas, Arkansas and other places at any time, and further attack their Protestant believers from the west, the Confederate government.

Speaking of which, this is really a true crusader inheriting the tradition!

It was originally a good thing for Da Ming that the enemy nested in a no man's land like Nebraska and gnawed corn.

But the Phoenix-Omaha railway will be completed soon, and Omaha is located in Nebraska!

Forced to do nothing, Da Ming must drive away the Yankees who are in the way before the railway is completed, so that he can join forces with Paige.

Thus, the Ming Dynasty's first road protection war started!

And Zhu Fugui's cultural value had to be kept temporarily, as a mobile card in the war.

Director Zhu's movie dream was temporarily stranded.

Chapter 258 Zhu Fugui's Micro Manipulation

Unlike playing "Civilization 5", in the real world, Zhu Fugui would not dare to be a big gambler who would cause a miracle to harm the country.

Daming had a plan for the crusade against the federal government.

If you want to say who is the happiest when the road protection war broke out, it is undoubtedly Mo Bai, the acting commander of the third division of the Royal Army.

This is his best chance to take off his acting hat.

Because of his young age and relative lack of solid resume, in the last round of military expansion, the Ministry of War meant to transfer Mo Bai to the Second Division as the division commander.

The number of the second division should be ranked before the third division, but in fact it is only a second division.

The division headquarters of the Type B Division, directly under the Artillery Battalion, Engineer Battalion, Supply Battalion, Cavalry Company, Signal Corps Company, and Secret Service Company have the same organization as the Type A Division, and the equipment is also the same.

But it has only two brigades under its jurisdiction, and the firepower and mobility of these two brigades cannot be compared with the Class A division.

The predecessor of the Third Division was the Three Banners of Zhongyong created by Yin Wei. It was a powerful army not inferior to the First Division. After successive expansions, it was still one of the strongest divisions.

In the end, Mo Bai still applied to the Ministry of War to stay in the third division, but he could only serve as the acting division commander first.

Don't think that the word agency doesn't matter.

Since Ming's army also had a dual-chief system, an "agent" was actually automatically demoted by half a rank.

The political commissar of the second division, or the royal trainer, is Hooper.

It is easy to guess from the name that this is a Yin man.

Hupo, formerly known as Amber, is the descendant of the Yunwu Tribe with Zhengmiaohong.

Of course, the reason why he was able to achieve such a high position as a teacher step by step is not due to his background, but his outstanding performance all the time.

As early as when Long Live God recruited warriors to fight against the God of Plague, Hooper was one of them.

This is the starting point of his true simplicity in the emperor's heart.

It can be said that as long as those who signed up without hesitation back then, none of them have done poorly.

On the contrary, someone who was prevaricating in the past is now growing potatoes, eating crabs, wrestling with polar bears in the Aleutian Islands, feeling the fresh air of Alaska, and living a beautiful life of idyllic pastoral.

The so-called strong wind knows the strength of the grass, and the toughness knows the loyal ministers. This is the truth.

Of course, it doesn't mean that showing loyalty can directly lead to success.

For example, in the late 70s, a certain stalwart from Frog Island who swam with a basketball in his arms, my rabbit did not reward him with a golden car or a high-ranking official, but gave him the most precious learning opportunities and organizational training.

Later history proved that such rewards are much more fragrant than material rewards.

When the defector from Li Lu Deng Frog spent all his gold, silver and jewels and became a robber, the basketball hunk had become the world's leading economics boss.

For those participants in the smallpox crusade, Zhu Fugui also arranged in the same way.

According to each person's hobbies and specialties, the imperial court gave them key training.

Hopper was like this. He successively studied in the first Royal Military Theory Night School, the Royal Army Night School Young Cadres Class, and the Political and Engineering Department of the Imperial Military Supervision Department of the Ming Dynasty, and grew up to be a qualified military political cadre.

Therefore, when he revealed to Mo Bai that Marshal Zhu might transfer the third division as the main force to fight eastward, Mo Bai didn't find it strange at all.

Because every time the Ministry of War or the Marshal's Mansion briefs the troops, if they release some news in advance, they will definitely give priority to Hupo.

But there's nothing to lose about that either.

Mo Bai and Marshal Zhu are the same age, and they are only 17 years old this year.

A 17-year-old lieutenant colonel acting teacher, what is there to complain about?

What's more, in the words of the eldest brother Xia Zhixin, Mo Bai was born a pure soldier, and fighting made his blood boil.

He doesn't really care about power.

On the contrary, it is too late for Mo Bai to thank Hu Po, a good big brother who has taken care of him in politics and logistics, so that he can focus on commanding operations.

……

Three days later, the "Order No. 3 of Marshal Dewu Zhu" from the Generalissimo's Office, and the "Several Opinions on the Mobilization of Troops for Road Protection Operations" by the General Staff of the Ministry of War were finally officially issued.

As for why it is "Order No. 3" instead of "Order No. 1" following the "Order No. 2" of the Southward Campaign, it is because at the beginning of the month, Zhu Fugui had already issued an order to the farmer to prepare for spring plowing, especially It is the commander-in-chief of the pig breeding work.

What is fought in war is logistics, and logistics is pulling your hips, so there is no need to talk about it.

After all, the army of the Ming Dynasty still has feudal remnants to some extent, it is the army of the royal family, not the army of the people, and its ideological consciousness is not as good as that of the soldiers of later generations.

Sufficient supplies are the backbone for trainers to carry out their work.

In addition, the reason why the third division was chosen as the main force for the eastward advance was mainly because the proportion of recruits in the third division was moderate, and two brigades had already participated in the Santiago round and were qualified for combat missions.

Like the last southward battle, this time the eastward march to protect the road also deployed some brigades from other troops as reinforcements for the third division.

One of the most important teams is the tank battalion from the [-]st Division.

The main radius of this battle is within the central plains of North America, which is very suitable for the deployment of tank troops.

The Third Division is the second-ranked Class A division. Both Mo Bai and Hu Po have actually made many reports and want to form their own tank units.

But now the cultural value is really tight, the three masters can only continue to endure.

And to be honest, judging from Desan's experience, it is better to fight in groups like tanks.

Formation, high mobility, and lightning combat are the correct way to use thin-skinned tanks like the Han Qi series.

In the future, if the tank battalion of the first division will definitely be independent, no matter whether it is the third division or the first division, it will only be able to retain a small number of thickened new tanks, and use the infantry-tank coordinated tactics to deal with the enemy's trenches and barbed wire.

That's right, things like barbed wire + trenches cannot be kept secret.

From the very beginning when Daming brought out these black technologies, Zhu Fugui made a good psychological expectation to reduce the marginal effect of technology dissemination.

At least the Texas rednecks have learned to use barbed wire, according to reports from the San Diego frontline.

Not only on the battlefield, but further southeast, you can also see red-necked farmers using barbed wire to enclose their farms to prevent Latino mercenaries from coming to steal chickens and dogs.

Barbed wire, the so-called "one of the seven patents that changed the face of the world", played its original role two years earlier than in history:

That is: in the process of colonizing the western frontier of the United States, it played a role in clarifying property rights and delineating the border for dividing spoils.

……

Thanks to the cables laid along the railway line early in the morning, the communications troops of the third division could easily build a front-line telegraph station leading directly to Fengdu this time.

Zhu Fugui once again lived a life of waiting for fresh battle reports every day.

Sometimes when my hands were really itchy, I also sent a telegram in the name of Zhang Changgui's Minister of the Ministry of War to show off my micromanipulation and have a good time.

"Per, 3 boxes of railway supplies, Mingzhi, instant noodles, 85-degree water."

"Per, 2 boxes of railway supplies, Ming Zhi, soybean powder, suitable for salty drinks, not sweet."

Chapter 259 War Ethics and Capital Punishment

In this way, every two or three days, Zhu Fugui would harass Tiger Po.

Fortunately, the latter has a very high political awareness, and no matter what order the Ministry of War sends, it will reply immediately.

This isn't some wolf-cry story.

The military department itself should maintain communication with the front line every three hours. Zhu Fugui is only helping to train the front line commanders to maintain their attention, and it is definitely not idle nonsense.

Well, definitely not!

In addition, it can also be seen from the content of the telegram that in this war, the Fengdu-Omaha Railway under construction has shown strong strategic value.

Not only can the third division be sent to the central region quickly, but as long as it relies on the railway to fight, the supply of the Ming army is almost unlimited.

Finally, on February 2, the last day of February in the third year of Dewu, Zhu Fugui received the first official battle report jointly sent by Mo Bai:

At 27:8 on the 40th, the cavalry company directly under our division performed an expanded reconnaissance mission and encountered the enemy patrolling militia.

Our army first shot at the enemy, killing 28 enemy soldiers and taking no prisoners.

At 10:30, the Xiong Hei Division, Zhao Xizhu Division, and Zhang Jin Division of the Second Brigade of our division moved northwest to the three Indiana militia regiments to encircle them.

At the same time, the motorcycle units of our division headquarters, the first and third brigades ran for 60 kilometers, interspersed to the valley behind the enemy, intercepted the rear road, and surrounded the points to fight for reinforcements.

Successively defeated three batches of enemy reinforcements.

By 28:17 on the 4323th, the Indiana militia had been completely annihilated, with [-] dead and no prisoners.

……

Looking at Mo Bai's battle report, the corners of Zhu Fugui's mouth twitched...

You have already figured out the enemy's deployment so clearly, and you still say that there are no prisoners, you are lying to ghosts...

Zhu Fugui remembered that when Mo Bai was a small flag, there were very few prisoners in battle.

This kid is really dark!

But in Zhu Fugui's view, as long as they don't engage in torture and killing, it's fine.

In August last year, the Swiss government convened an international conference in Geneva with the participation of France, Italy, Spain and other countries. On August 8, 8 participating countries signed the "Convention on Improving the Situation of the Wounded in Armed Forces in the Field" (also known as the "Universal Red Cross Convention").

It stipulates: the principle of confirming that the wounded and sick of the opposing sides should be treated humanely without distinction under any circumstances; prohibiting any harm or violence to the life and body of the wounded and sick, especially the prohibition of murder, torture, and biological experiments. Or deliberately refuse to give medical assistance and care; medical units and their buildings, equipment and personnel are inviolable, but there should be a clear red cross or red crescent sign on a white background.

This was the prototype of the Fourth Geneva Convention.

But this stuff...

Just listen to it.

Americans are still scalping each other with Indians these days, who cares about you?
