Chapter 728: Goal Gwalior
"Lenghe, look, do you like this gem?" In the small villa, Zhao Guanhou held a ruby the size of a pigeon egg in his hand, holding it in his hand like a treasure, allowing Chen Lenghe to see it. The gem is flawless and has a round color. At a glance, you can tell that it is an invincible treasure.
But Leng He only glanced at it, responded casually, and focused his attention on the twins in his arms. He teased this, kissed that, and whispered: "Call mom...mom."
"I found that since the birth of two precious girls in our family, you have been watching me less and less. Now you don't even look at gems."
"Yes, because you and the gems add up are not as good as my baby. Baby, are you right?" Leng He teased the two babies, and after a long time, he looked at Zhao Guanhou with a frown.
"It's all your fault. Arrange me a general manager of Gonghe Bank and a deputy finance director. What should I do if I go to work? Otherwise, I'll quit."
Zhao Guanhou put the gem aside, "Of course, I'll fight for this general manager for you, to fulfill your wishes. You haven't always wanted to fight for power and status for women, just let you manage the Gonghe Bank, and then keep a seat for you in the Ministry of Finance. In the future, you will also want to be the Gonghe Chief Finance Minister. If a woman becomes the Chief, someone dares to say that she has no status? But if you don't like it, I will never force her. I don't oppose women's work, but I won't force women to work, and everything is voluntary. Especially my own women, this is even more so."
"After you say this, if I stay at home again, it will be a shame to your kindness." Leng He put down the child and sighed. "Forget it, since I want to be a strong woman, I have to sacrifice something. It turns out that I said I would not give birth to a child, but I am afraid of the situation today. Now, my ambitions have been wiped out by the two little girls. You two little girls, it's better to grow up soon. When you grow up, your mother can go to work... If I go to Beijing, I will leave the two children to Sister Han Zhi to take care of. I believe the women at home and leave them to others. I am afraid that the little girls will be bullied."
"Dare! My daughter is the oldest in my family. I will not agree if anyone dares to bully my daughter. Don't worry, there must be people who have opinions about you, but the children are so cute, no one will cause trouble for them."
Chen Lenghe did not deny this. She did not live in the Shuai Mansion but lived in a small villa. There were not only one or two people who had opinions about her. But they were also smart people. They knew that Zhao Guanhou’s bottom line was and would not provoke him. She coaxed her two children to sleep. She looked at them for a long time before she lazily picked up the financial statements on the table and flipped them.
"Anne is really capable. She quickly sorted out the financial situation of the two banks. The combined, transportation, and financial situation of the two banks are much better than I imagined. You used the Lu ticket redeem method to acquire a large number of two banks' bonds and passbooks, but it may not be a loss-making business. However, their banknotes are issued too many, which is severe inflation. Even if the Lu ticket redeems 60% off, it is still a big gap in precious metals. Fortunately, there is a blood transfusion in India, otherwise, we will be over this time."
"Liang Caishen tried hard to print money, but the result must be like this today. I bought bonds and redeemed the money. I did not mean to make a fortune, but just tried to reduce the possibility of rebellion. Give the people a bite of food and let them have hope of survival. They will not rise up and rebellion, and we will live a more comfortable life. The longer the people are anesthetized, the more time we have to enjoy it. Fortunately, in the end, this plate is protected, and Anne is very hard... You will also work hard in the future."
The night in India was as hot as it was, but the bonfire was still needed to marching. A bunch of soldiers surrounded the bonfire, enduring the scorching flames, and gathered around Huo Qiu intently, listening to him talk about his friendship with Guan Shuai. Apart from the soldiers, several senior officers near the fire were also impressed. The commander Shang Zhen took the adjutant to take a look from afar, but did not get close, and went back to the camp.
In another tent, the deputy division commander Yang Biao lived. After the Battle of Weifang, Yang Biao studied in the military academy again, which was a test of his studies. Around him, including Sun Pengju, the artillery commander of the division, and Geng Zhangyao, the founder of Shandong Iron Armor Train, and other generals from Shaanxi-Chinese swordsmen.
The Second Division of the Shandong Provincial Army, composed of Guo Jian's surrendered troops as the main source of troops, performed outstandingly in the Battle of Weifang and made great achievements, but its own combat losses were also very serious. The troops suffered the largest casualties. After the war, the troops were recruited from the Shaanxi immigrants to supplement them, and the troops were urgently drawn from the Third Division of the Provincial Army guarding Qingdao to fill the situation, restoring the maximum system of 18,000 people. After the promotion army returned to Shandong, the Second Division entered Tianzhu and replaced them with defense.
The composition of this army is very complex, and the main forces are swordsmen, but the highest commander is Shang Zhen, who was born in a regular army. After replenishing his troops, he joined a large number of Beiyang soldiers and the good family recruited in Shaanxi, which is very different from the original swordsmen. Among the officers, they are naturally divided into several factions because of their origins, and it is difficult for them to get along well with each other.
"Huo Qiu is too bullying! He is just a deputy brigade commander, and his eyes are on his head, so he didn't take Jiuwa seriously at all. He didn't know, but he thought he was the deputy commander. If Shang Zhen hadn't suppressed him, this division would have been probably going to usurp the throne."
"There is no way. Whoever lets the general be the confidant of the commander of the commander of the guards and was directly transferred to the regiment commander within a few days. He said he was here to fight, but in fact he was a military supervisor. He made a fortune in the last time and was transported back to the country's gold and silver mountains. This time we go to fight... I'm not relieved."
Yang Biao said, "It's not that people are worried. Our brothers must also control themselves. Huo Qiu's soldiers, including a company of military police, do a job of finding fault. If the brothers are not clean, don't blame them for looking down on us. I put this in this way, both of my military uniforms and the reputation of Shaanxi people. If anyone destroys the reputation of the group, I will be the first to refuse him! Now the heroes are competing for Shaanxi, and Chen Fan, what can I do to live in the country? I think he can't stay in Shaanxi. One day, if the Grand Marshal likes us, and borrows a team of troops to let us fight back to our hometown, maybe we can open a prefecture and benefit our hometown. But if he loses his reputation, the Grand Marshal will not dare to hand over the military power to us. Even if he fights back, it will be the business of those people in Beiyang, and it will not be our benefit."
Several officers nodded in agreement, and Sun Pengju said, "Jiuwa said that I passed the order down this time. Who dares to destroy the name of the Shaanxi Army? Without saying a word, one sword and two pieces!"
The fact that the Indian soldiers are far inferior to the Indian mosquitoes has become more powerful. At the same time, another fact is that the Indian Tu Wang is too rich. When he entered the Tu Wang's home, the dazzling golden light appeared in front of them. At the same time, the Tu Wang's concubine, daughter and family members appeared in front of them.
The status of Indian women is extremely low, which is worse than that of the pre-Kinder era women. Even after being violated by men, they will be considered their own fault. Because of the complex components of Rensheng's troops, although they can control money, they do not control soldiers to engage in Indian women. Many people have good luck here, and it is common for one person to take care of two or three wives or leave behind a few illegitimate children.
For this reason, Sun Feibao had to set up a law enforcement team, and no less than fifty heads were cut off by the heads alone to curb this trend. In addition, due to the loss of injuries and illness, the troops returning to Shandong were only 13,000. Ren Sheng was combined with the two crimes, and he made several in-depth reviews and was punished with a serious demerit within the Lu army. If it weren't for Cheng Yue's relationship, he might not even be able to keep the position of division commander.
Referring to the lessons of the former army, Huo Qiu Guang's military police this time was a company, and his own regiment mainly did not undertake the battle, but maintained discipline.
Most of the Shaanxi Army were poor, and the majority were bachelors, so both wealth and sex were prone to problems. The attitude Huo Qiu showed made Yang Biao believe that as long as the Shaanxi Army made mistakes in these two aspects, the other party would definitely take the opportunity to suppress the Shaanxi Army.
The inner house is like an officialdom, with a faction backer, and everyone has to talk about. Although Huo Qiu is not as close to Cheng Yue like the former Huai Army, he has always claimed that when he met his eldest wife, the Zhao family had to go to the kitchen himself. With such a relationship, he never looked at the Shaanxi Army, a unit with no one on the bed.
"We have shed so much blood in Weifang and so many brothers have died. We cannot be destroyed just because we can't control our hands or belts. All battalions and regiments must set up law enforcement teams. Whoever dares to violate military orders and rectify the law on the spot. The commander has an order, and you can marry a wife, you must have to nod and marry her as a wife. If anyone does something randomly, don't blame him for not accepting his brothers. As for the money and spoils, he will not treat anyone unfairly. I, Yang Biao, swear that I will not take any penny by myself. If I violate this oath, the world will not tolerate it! If anyone takes a needle and a thread privately, don't blame me for being rude!"
Sun Pengju said, "It's not enough to do this alone. We have to plan for ourselves. The brothers' hard work has never fallen behind, but when they are rewarded with merit, they always look down on others. After all, we are not the direct line? The cavalry brigade is expanded into a division, and the Sun family holds the official hat of the entire division. Brother Geng is so powerful that he can't promote it. The Fifth Division is a senior official of Long, and the future treatment is gone. If we want to fight back to our hometown, we must be the confidant of the general, otherwise why should we send us back?"
Several people nodded and expressed their full agreement with Sun Pengju's words. Yang Biao said: "This cannot be blamed on the Grand Marshal. Now there are old brothers coming to the house in their hometown and want to join the team to follow them. If it weren't for the high military salary in Shandong, maybe there would be brothers who would have to leave. In this case, who can feel at ease? You have to become your own person before you can go home."
"Yes, if you become your own people, the general will delegate power." Several people spoke in unison.
Yang Biao thought, "It's not easy to be your own person. Don't think about it now. Let's talk about it first. Helping foreign devils fight, everyone has no motivation. But for our Shaanxi army and to show off our signs of separation from the Huai army, we have to show off our ability. What kind of city we want to take is called Gua... This foreigner can't even name it, so how can the city be called Gua? It sounds like Gua. I heard that the leader is a woman, and it's very evil in war."
Sun Pengju laughed and said, "How can evil be evil than Yang Guanyin? The foreign devils are so bad. These Indian soldiers are just a bunch of tofu. If the brothers put the bayonet on, they will be finished immediately. I think this Gua City is no big deal. We just compete with the foreign devils and can't let him rob us."
In fact, after Shang Zhen's division entered Tianzhu, he did not encounter a few decent opponents. The morale of the Tianzhu soldiers had been defeated before. Although they had assembled large troops, they would be defeated once they encountered it. Shang Zhen even had some doubts about why the Albion people didn't go on their own and had to leave their military achievements and spoils to the Lu army.
What he didn't know was that on the battlefield of Thailand, although the speed of Prussia's attack was no longer as fast as when the war broke out. With Yankee's mediation, both sides had a tendency to return to the negotiating table. However, with Sardinia and Romania officially announced their joining the allies, the situation became unfavorable to the Allies.
Within Tiel, the sympathizers of the Declinemen began to rebel again, and this time, they received Prussian support and became extremely difficult to deal with.
The victory or defeat of the main battlefield is unpredictable. Although General Ross cursed the people in the headquarters again and again, he still had to transfer his precious troops to the front line of Taixi. The troops that can be used in his hands are not enough to shock the Indians.
Although the mercenaries in India and surrounding areas have slightly better combat effectiveness than the rebel army, their performance on the battlefield will never satisfy the commander. Other colonies are now staring at the here of India. Once the uprising in India becomes a delayed war, the calls for autonomy in other areas will become higher, and the terrible domino effect may occur in Albion's colony.
At this time, the economic account must be given to the upright account, and the global layout is more important than anything else. The Lu army is the magic weapon for the Albion people to quickly end the war. What's more, the enemy they have to deal with now, but the ruthless character who has suffered a few times has to be handed over to the Lu army to solve the problem with this quick knife.
"Dear Philip, may your soul be in heaven forever peaceful. The shameful murderer, the leader of the rioters, is in Gwalior, and I will end all this next. I swear in the name of my ancestors that I will send you to the gallows of the Bichim who murdered you, and watch her hanged little by little."
After fulfilling his promise to his old friend in the Heavenly Spirit, Ross picked up the quill and wrote quickly, then shouted: "Sentenceman! Leave it to Major Hawke and Heron how many schools"
This order was obtained by a Chinese collector many years later, allowing future generations to see a story about the siege of Gwalior.
