The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 1144: Stealing People

William II refused: Zhao, I will give you the concession and give me the grain.

Zhao Chuanxin replied: No, it's too little.

I'm not really here to help you in your time of need.

After some bargaining, the contract was finally finalized.

Zhao Chuanxin had stolen grain in Japan once before, and he was familiar with it, so he went to get grain again.

Zhao Chuanxin sent a batch of meat and grain to Germany, and even a stove, which solved Germany's urgent needs.

At first, the people of various countries were enthusiastic about the war, and they were willing to be controlled by the government, tighten their belts, and buy war bonds to show their support.

But gradually, the people came to their senses.

When will this end?

Gradually, there was an anti-war sentiment.

Germany was still good, and Tsarist Russia was the most noisy. Nicholas II was not popular.

If it is to buy food and guns and ammunition, the officers of each position cannot make the decision, but many of them have Zhao Chuanxin's contact information, and now they are scrambling to let Zhao Chuanxin send students to study, and even promised Zhao Chuanxin's students that they can lead a team of tens of thousands of people.

Now the war has developed to the point where the generals are not subject to the orders of the king when they are away.

Because Zhao Chuanxin's students will be given as much food and guns and ammunition as the number of soldiers they lead.

It can also reduce casualties.

Greatly alleviate the problem of insufficient rations.

And Zhao Chuanxin doesn't even mind these generals using his students as cannon fodder.

In November, the number of wireless telegraphs requesting Zhao Chuanxin to send students to study gradually increased.

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't resist this enthusiasm and sent three waves of students to take turns to lead the troops.

Military learning is fastest in actual combat.

Practice what you learn.

Until the end of December, Zhao Chuanxin brought back the last batch of students.

One reason was that the New Year was coming soon, and the other was that Yao Jia had something important to discuss with him.

"Sir, they're asking for money again. They've asked for it six times already. Even beggars wouldn't come so frequently."

Zhao Chuanxin had been planning these two lines for a long time and had invested a lot of money, which was much more exaggerated than when he fought in Jiaodong.

He looked serious: "Give it!"

Yao Jia smiled bitterly: "I think they are so greedy that I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on to the end. XXX is more reliable."

"That's why we have to bet on both sides. We must put pressure on them and let them know that our help is indispensable to either side."

It was the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month again.

When Zhao Chuanxin was setting up the lantern pole, Yao Bing was behind it, Zhao Lingjun and Zhao Nianzhen were on Zhao Chuanxin's left and right, and Benjamin Goldberg also came, standing next to him with his hands in his sleeves like a fool.

The Zhao family are all tall.

Zhao Nianzhen is already 1.1 meters tall.

Zhao Lingjun is 1.68 meters tall and is still growing.

After Zhao Chuanxin set up the lantern pole, he stretched out his hand to indicate their height.

Yao Bing is 177cm tall, Benjamin Goldberg is 187cm tall, taller than Zhao Chuanxin.

They don't know what Old Zhao means.

Suddenly Zhao Chuanxin got angry: "Can't you grow slower?"

He left without tying the lantern.

He was angry all of a sudden.

Several people looked at each other, staring at each other.

"What's wrong with my father?" Zhao Lingjun was puzzled.

"Dad must be angry with you." Zhao Nianzhen pointed at Zhao Lingjun and slandered him.

She has been targeting Zhao Lingjun recently.

Yao Bing scratched his head.

Benjamin Goldberg has grown a beard, and he said cheerfully: "Master has become more and more moody in the past two years."

After returning, Zhao Chuanxin didn't even steam buns anymore and went to Hong Kong Island.

Zhao Songzhen is shorter than Zhao Nianzhen, thin and small.

Zhao Chuanxin bent down: "Come, girl, Dad will carry you out to play."

Zhao Songzhen shook his head: "Dad, I'm grown up, I can't let you carry me."

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly went out and kicked the tree trunk in the yard.

Crack...

The tree trunk was actually broken by him!

Zhao Songzhen happened to see it, and her eyes suddenly turned red: "Dad, please don't be angry, okay, I didn't mean it."

She didn't know what she did wrong.

Zhao Chuanxin put on a hat and gloves for her: "Come on, Dad will take you for a ride on the bike."

The back seat of the modified bicycle can still accommodate Zhao Songzhen's thin body for the time being.

After this year, even Liu Baogui's temples turned white.

Only Zhao Chuanxin's hair is still thick and black, and his hairline has not moved at all.

Everyone thinks that Zhao Chuanxin's temperament is getting weirder.

His beard is scary, messy and never trimmed.

He shaved his head, and his scalp was dark blue.

He is serious and his temperament is more sinister.

This invisibly increases his appearance age.

Walking on the street, people walked around him.

Zhao Shanhe, a fat boy living in Iceland, didn't even dare to get close to this old man.

Wilhelmina controlled the number of times Zhao Jinxiu and Zhao Chuanxin met.

The last two children of Zhao Chuanxin spoke Chinese terribly.

...

The day before the Lantern Festival, Mexico finally ended years of war and began to democratize.

Carranza was stabbed.

Da Piaoliang instigated Carranza to cancel the autonomy of Constantine State.

Carranza tried to mention it, and Aguirre Ida told him: "Don John Constantine's temper is volatile, and now he is even more violent and bloodthirsty. I suggest you recognize the autonomy of Constantine State. I'm not threatening you, I promise you, as long as I tell him, you will definitely not see the sun tomorrow."

Carranza thought again and again, and finally did not dare to test the law himself. He rejected Da Piaoliang and recognized the autonomy of Constantine State through telegram.

If he was killed by Zhao Chuanxin, Zapata might be given an advantage, but the gain was really not worth the loss.

Being beautiful is quite unpleasant.

At the end of February, Zhao Chuanxin transported a batch of guns, ammunition and food to the north.

In early March, the northern royal family was overthrown.

The Romanov dynasty of more than 300 years was completely destroyed.

Nicholas II abdicates the throne.

The temporary (system) announced something to the outside world, a shocking thing: the Romanov dynasty has done many unjust things, and as a show of friendship, some of them are now returned

land. (Part deleted)

Li Yuanhong was dumbfounded: I'm boiling, what's going on?

Warlords everywhere were also confused.

They were fighting happily, and Zhao Chuanxin recovered the red T-shirt?

Don't waste every soldier?

This is the reason why Zhao Chuanxin never follows the trend and pursues independence.

Once this kind of thing is announced, it will become unclear later.

But it hasn't all been smooth sailing.

Another group of people from the north asked Zhang Shouzeng angrily: "What does this mean? Betting on both sides?"

Zhang Shouzeng has been involved in foreign affairs for many years and is very skilled in his methods: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious first, listen to me slowly..."

At this time, the North is a dual system.

A certain party originally thought that Zhao Chuanxin only bet on them.

But when the Northern Temporary System was returned to XX, they learned the truth.

Zhang Shouzeng learned with emotion and moved with reason.

"So, we are really close friends with you, and we are just indispensable human relations with them."

The other party's eyes were red, and he glared at Zhang Shouzeng and said, "All our food is being sent to Europe. I ask you to support a batch of food."

Zhang Shouzeng agreed: "No problem. Although we have to tighten our belts, it's no problem."

In the northern area of ​​Lubin Prefecture, a large amount of farmland has been opened up by the Han people many years ago and is cultivated by machines. There is really no shortage of food. Moreover, Zhao Chuanxin went to the granaries of neighboring countries from time to time to "borrow" grain.

But certainly not showing off your wealth.

When the other party saw this, his expression softened: "We have a meeting next month and lack funds."

"How many?"

"One million yuan."

"Although our finances are almost exhausted, we can."

"..."

The other party came with a strong momentum and left with satisfaction.

Duan originally wanted to take advantage of Germany, but now it is impossible because Zhao Chuanxin took action in advance.

The capital dispatched a group of Chinese industrial army regiments to Le Havre, France.

Not far after the ship sailed, Zhao Chuanxin boarded the ship.

"Everyone, I am Zhao Chuanxin."

The Chinese workers on the ship looked at this bald and bearded man in shock.

The captain hurriedly went to the deck to inquire.

After learning that the visitor was Zhao Chuanxin, he hurriedly stepped forward to show his courtesy: "General Zhao, we have not offended you..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm not going to France, I'm going to Australia instead."

The captain was confused: "Going to Australia? What are you going to do in Australia?"

"The one next door to Mala." Zhao Chuanxin took out the Abyss M1913 and put it against the captain's chin: "Do I need to explain to you?"

"No need, there's no need at all..." The captain was so frightened that he peed his pants.

So the ship went to western Australia.

Zhang Dazhu was so happy!

Australia has a population of about 5 million, but it has sent more than 300,000 soldiers to the European battlefield.

Zhang Dazhu was surprised when he learned this number.

Now he just wants to increase the population, increase the population, and increase the population.

It must be able to compete with the East-Australia branch.

France has received a letter saying that a group of engineering troops will be released to the Allied side.

They are very happy.

They need people to build railroad tracks to transport supplies, dig trenches, build forts, build roads, and build bridges. They need people to do coolies.

Wait and wait, where are the people?

They called Li Yuanhong to inquire.

Li Yuanhong's head is filled with questions: Where are the people? Didn’t people go?

The Zhili warlords and Li Yuanhong's relatives actually opposed this matter. .

But Duan Qirui agreed.

He is close to the Japanese.

His forces coerced Li Yuanhong and sent a second group of people to Europe.

Just like last time, the ship was stopped by Zhao Chuanxin before it had gone very far.

The captain sailed the ship to northern Australia, and more than 10,000 people were all owned by Dadong.

Hua Gong has no objection. Where can I go to work? You don't have to risk your life to come to Australia. They divide the land and houses.

Duan Qirui, Li Yuanhong and others finally knew where the person had gone.

Duan Qirui jumped angrily and greeted the eighteenth generation of Zhao Chuanxin's ancestors in private.

If he knew that all the fifth and fourth generations of the old Zhao family were here, he didn't know what he would think.

The two systems in the north approached Zhang Shouzeng respectively for money and food.

In July, the other party came to beg for it again. This was the third time this year, and his appetite grew bigger each time.

This time, Zhang Shouzeng asked Zhao Chuanxin for instructions.

"They went a little too far."

Zhao Chuanxin said coldly: "Here."

Zhang Shouzeng smiled bitterly: "We don't have that much money in our account, so we can't go to the bank to break it up or misappropriate funds from Internet companies, right?"

Zhao Chuanxin's voice was still cold: "I'll pay for it personally."

The guns and cannons manufactured by Benjamin Goldberg in Hankou Factory have been sold by Zhao Chuanxian to the Cursed Desert and Middle-Earth.

The world of "Code of the Old Gods" has entered an era where firearms and runes coexist.

Benjamin Goldberg made a living by not only making the guns he designed, but also making some revolvers and other types of pistols. He did not pay patent fees to the patent owners at all, because these guns and ammunition did not flow into the global market.

Zhao Chuanxin has completed the accumulation of funds.

Zhang Shouzeng hesitated: "Is it inappropriate?"

"Give it, and put the money in the account. If Lubinfu can pay it back, it will pay it back. If it can't, I will accept it."

In the past two years, Zhao Chuanxin has become more and more cold and unpredictable. Zhang Shouzeng is really worried that Zhao Chuanxin will suddenly come to the drama of Yuan Weiting.

Family empire...

Zhang Shouzeng did not speak for a while, and Zhao Chuanxin seemed to guess his thoughts.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Chuanxin said: "Lubinfu will be called a province from now on. I appoint Yao Jia as a senior official, effective immediately."

Zhang Shouzeng hurriedly said: "That's not what I mean..."

"No need to say more, do as I say."

Zhang Shouzeng was helpless.

You said Zhao Chuanxin was arbitrary?

That's true.

You said he was power-loving?

Not true.

Very contradictory.

In the past, Zhang Shouzeng could see through Zhao Chuanxin to some extent, but now he only felt that he was unfathomable.

At the same time, Li Yuanhong asked Zhang Xun to mediate the conflict between himself and Duan Qirui.

Zhang Xun led the pigtail army into Beijing, attempting to restore Aixinjueluo Puyi.

Puyi ascended the throne again!

Everyone in the world is daydreaming.

Yuan Weiting couldn't do it, and Puyi, a little kid, wanted to overestimate his own abilities?

Zhang Xun was also stupid.

He had just made a fuss, and the anti-rebel army broke into the capital, frightening Zhang Xun to flee to the Dutch embassy in Beijing.

The Dutch ambassador even sent a telegram to Zhao Chuanxin to report the matter.

There was no way, he didn't dare to offend Zhao Chuanxin. Once he got angry, he would not look at Wilhelmina's face at all.

It was August.

In Beijing,

because Zhao Chuanxin always robbed people.

Duan had to call Zhao Chuanxin in person.

After the call was connected, Duan asked tentatively: "General Zhao?"

"Speak!" It was Zhao Chuanxin's voice, with a cold tone.

Duan said: "Britain needs 60,000 people, and these people are about to set off. I hope General Zhao will not intercept them."

He waited anxiously for a reply.

"Good!" Zhao Chuanxin said concisely!

Duan was overjoyed.

To avoid more trouble, he immediately set about it.

This group of people mainly came from Shandong and Hubei.

It took two months to gather 60,000 people.

These 60,000 people set off from Shanghai in a mighty force, boarding several French ships.

The ship took the North American route, crossed the Pacific Ocean, and then took a train across North America from the west coast to the east coast, and then took a boat across the Atlantic Ocean to reach the British Empire.

Although it was a detour, it could avoid Zhao Chuanxin.

Previously, they were intercepted by Zhao Chuanxin when they went south, and now they might be able to avoid Zhao Chuanxin by going east.

Second, they could avoid the war zone and ensure the safety of the passengers (60,000 people).

Several French ships departed from Shanghai, and they had to stop in Japan first.

Less than 200 kilometers away, Zhao Chuanxin and two cruisers arrived at the same time and stopped the French ship.

Zhao Chuanxin boarded the deck, and the captain looked at Zhao Chuanxin in confusion: "Mr. Zhao, what are you doing..."

It had been clearly explained before that Zhao Chuanxin would not appear this time.

Zhao Chuanxin had a shiny bald head and a tangled beard, covering all parts except under the cheekbones, except for his mouth.

He was wearing a severely faded blue T-shirt, and his arms were holding up the cuffs.

He held a hammer in his hand and looked at the captain coldly: "Turn south and go to Australia."

The captain's head was buzzing: "But, but someone told me that you will not stop it, this ship is going to Canada..."

"The last warning, turn south and go to Australia."

The captain frowned: "I'm sorry I can't obey..."

Duh!

The captain's skull was sunken after a hammer.

He collapsed to the ground.

There was a cry of surprise from all around.

The passengers on the ship trembled.

Zhao Chuanxin asked: "Is there anyone who can drive a boat?"

No one answered.

Zhao Chuanxin bent his knees, jumped up, and jumped onto the cruiser 40 meters away. He held a man with his strong arms and jumped back onto the French ship: "Drive the ship to Australia. If anyone is against you, I will kill all the French on this ship."

This man came from the Xuantian Sect of Australia Island.

Although he knew that Zhao Chuanxin would not hurt him, he was still very nervous.

Zhao Chuanxin was too scary at this time, whether to enemies or friends.

Zhao Chuanxin jumped up and jumped onto another ship 50 meters away. He said the same thing again: "I won't repeat it a second time."

The captain here saw the situation over there through the telescope. He warned Zhao Chuanxin: "If you insist on doing it, you will have two more powerful enemies..."

Duh!

The captain's eyes were straight after a hammer.

Zhao Chuanxin went to the third ship, and the captain knelt on the ground: "I agree to everything. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Duan and the Japanese thought that the shipping would be very smooth.

But soon they lost contact with the three ships.

No matter how they sent the radio, the three ships did not reply.

Until everyone was sent to Australia, the only surviving captain dared to send a telegram to Duan and tell him the whole story.

Duan was furious!

He could no longer care about so much, and called Zhao Chuanxin and questioned him: "Zhao Tan Gong, what do you want to do? You clearly promised me..."

Zhao Chuanxin said coldly: "I fucking lied to you, and you are such a fool that you believe it. Who can you blame?"

Simple, crude and direct.

"I..." Duan didn't even get a breath, so he fainted. "Zhao Tan Gong, you are not a son of man..."

"Fuck you." Zhao Chuanxin hung up the phone directly.

Britain and France also sent notes to the Lubin Government's Foreign Affairs Bureau, questioning and protesting their actions.

Zhang Shouzeng's reply was: "We in Lubin Mansion are not targeting anyone, we are just protecting our compatriots from harm."

Our own people decide whether to stay or go. Do you have anything to say?

Britain and France had nothing to say, and it was not easy to say anything.

Japan's response was to build more desperate warships.

They seemed to want to rely on the number of warships to make up for Zhao Chuanxin's advantage at sea, hoping to get more warships to their destinations while Zhao Chuanxin was busy scuttling the warships.

After all, it takes time to build a ship.

In the past, they used human lives to win the war, but now they want to rely on battleships to win the war.

Whether you fight or not, you must at least be prepared first.

Zhao Chuanxin ignored these.

He took the ship himself to the Mediterranean.

Before coming, he told the world: "I am here to rescue the suffering people. Whose warships or submarines dare to touch my ship and kill the gods and Buddhas."

Sure enough, on the sea filled with war, only his ship sailed unimpeded.

Zhao Chuanxin arrived near the Balkans, unloaded the goods first, and then began to drop leaflets everywhere.

As long as women in war-torn areas struggle to survive, they will find a land of warmth, peace, comfort, and abundance waiting for them...

Amid strong protests from the Mediterranean countries, Zhao Chuanxin rescued the women who had been tortured by the war.

There is another commotion in the north.

Armed - equipment

uprising.

The fire is burning and the blood is boiling.

The workers held Shui Lianzhu produced in Lubinfu and Juanwang M1908 produced by Hankou Ordnance.

The man named L roared on the grounds of Smo-Erni Palace:

"Red Guards, gather."

The workers responded with a thunderous roar.

Trucks full of gun-toting workers disappeared into the night.

Their destination is-the Winter Palace!

They now have money, guns, and food.

The words "Lubin Mansion" are also printed on the boxes containing grain...

On November 8, the dust settled.

That one has a meeting in D-Palace.

In addition to the "Peace Decree" which exposed the predatory war of imperialism, Lubin Mansion was also specifically mentioned.
