When it comes to official expenditures, Qian Shuiting has indeed noticed that it is almost hypocritical - after all, he has been educated in the United States and knows that political affairs are no small matter. If he really wants to get serious, his underwear will be stripped off. 【No pop-up novel website】Looking at the scene, if the maid drank a cup of boiled water in the executive committee office, someone would reveal it.
Qian Shuiting chuckled: "Is saving office expenses the purpose of the Senate?"
"Okay, let's not talk about these lies." Shan Liang can't say anything new in terms of living conditions now. After all, the living conditions of the elders have improved rapidly after the Maid Revolution. He has another purpose this time. land.
"I went to the veteran military and political proposal on BBS - someone wants to kill Zhu Dadian..."
Qian Shuiting moved his butt on the chair, thinking "here we go again". He was tired of hearing about this matter these days. The worst thing was that as the speaker, he couldn't show his butt clearly, so he had to listen patiently to everyone. Long story.
"The fact that Lu Zeyang wants to assassinate Zhu Dadian doesn't matter in itself. It has nothing to do with the death of a Ming Dynasty bureaucrat." Shan Liang made his position clear at the beginning, "But from this matter, I feel that the elders who are now dispatched abroad have nothing to do with it." They are becoming more and more like a climate..."
When he said this, he kept looking at Qian Shuiting, spying on his reaction. Sure enough, Qian Shuiting's unnatural smile made him realize that the speaker had similar thoughts to himself.
"The tendency of veterans stationed abroad to walk alone has become more and more intense since the Chang Shide incident at Leizhou Station." Shan Liang came prepared, having already hidden an "article" in his mind. This article was not written by him alone, but more of a "collective creation". "According to the plan announced in the past, the purpose of 'Operation Engine' is to obtain the population of Shandong. From this point of view, the leaders of the Shandong Front Committee are a little confused." Target?"
Qian Shuiting continued to remain silent.
"The occupation of Qimu Island was for a transshipment base, but the occupation of Zhaoyuan was not part of the plan." Shan Liang said, "Without the authorization of the Senate, a large number of local militiamen were expanded, forming a fait accompli that the occupation of parts of Shandong's coastal areas ...Such a big strategic move is no longer just a simple tactical move like when Lu Zeyang entered Laizhou Nanguan to assist the defense."
Shan Liang continued: "For the senators who are sent abroad, do you still have the Senate in your heart? You can do whatever you want, and when you are done, ask the Senate to wipe your ass! The fait accompli will put resources into it. Anyway, as long as you have political achievements, what will you do in the end? They will all be recognized posthumously—if that’s the case, why do you need the rubber stamp of the Senate?!”
Qian Shuiting's eyebrows raised slightly.
"The incomplete liquidation of Chang Shide's incident led to such a thing. I think it can't continue like this. Now more and more veterans are sent abroad, and the power they hold is far less than that of Chang Shide and others. The factory is so simple. Some of them are already princes, with military and political power in their hands. If we don't prevent the slightest change now, it's hard to say that there will be monsters like the Kwantung Army in the future."
Qian Shuiting looked serious.
"There is no need to discuss the matter of Zhu Dadian at all - because the proposal is wrong from the starting point!" Shan Liang's voice raised a few points, "The original purpose of the engine plan was to take advantage of the Denglai Incident. To assassinate Zhu Dadian and extend the The whole incident was not part of the original plan at all. What case did he file? This is a typical act of walking alone talking to oneself!"
Qian Shuiting asked: "What is your suggestion?"
"Operation Engine is now on a summer break, and all aspects of work are not too tense. I think it is necessary for the Senate to hold a hearing on Operation Engine. A comprehensive report on the organization, implementation and completion of this operation. , and at the same time review all the current problems in the operation. Serious problems must be dealt with seriously. Some veterans may be considered for transfer."
Qian Shuiting was silent for a few minutes and said, "Are you going to launch a proposal on this issue?"
"Of course I do. I'm very willing to serve." Shan Liang said with a slight smile, specially emphasizing the word "service".
"It's so hot..." Lu Zeyang was wearing a bamboo hat and a cotton and linen blended robe. This is the coolest local attire. It is a special summer uniform made by Minister Hong specially organized by people in Shandong: cotton and linen blended materials. Weaving a bamboo hat. In contrast, the local warriors all wore linen jackets and torn straw hats, and looked wretched.
In his hand he held the order document that had just been delivered.
Fan Twelve waited by his side like a pug, wholeheartedly fawning over the "Mr. Lu" who had a "promising future". According to his idea, with the achievements of this "Mr. Lu" in Laizhou, when this chaos is over, The imperial court will definitely reward him with a thousand presidents or something. If I can serve as a small leader under his command, my future will be much better than opening a half-dead small restaurant in Laizhou City.
The weather was hot and Mr. Lu didn't have much appetite, so Fan Twelve made cold noodles, added peanut butter, and light side dishes to serve Mr. Lu.
Since Xu Congzhi died in battle and Zhu Dadian took office, the rebels' attacks on Laizhou were no longer as fierce as usual. It seems that they realized that no matter how fierce the attack was, it would be impossible to open Laizhou. Starting from June, except for leaving some troops to continue to besiege Laizhou, most of the main force of the rebels had withdrawn. The scouts sent by Lu Zeyang reported that the rebel blockade under the city had begun to weaken. Although there may still be 10,000 troops left, most of the main rebel force formed by the old Dongjiang troops had left Laizhou. Most of the rebels who remain under Laizhou City and continue to besiege the city are the remnants of the original Shandong Zhenjun, the Southern Army and the defeated officers and soldiers. Only the two thousand men and horses led by Kong Youde remained under Laizhou City, not only to monitor other rebels, but also to control the passage.
According to the judgment of the Shandong Front Committee, the rebels could not capture Laizhou for a long time, and they found that the Huangxian area had gradually come under the control of the Senate, and they had already made plans to find another way.
The rebels have been besieging Laizhou for a long time, and their main purpose is to "seize their way out." Only by breaking out of Dengzhou and Laizhou, a small seaside open space facing the sea on one side and mountains on the other, can the rebels have a large room for maneuver and continue to expand their strength. Whenever a peasant army riots, it must start as a mobile operation, in which it strengthens itself to attack the enemy. The same goes for the rebels in Denlay.
Now that there is no hope of capturing Laizhou, and since the rebels have no hope of "breaking through" by taking the Laizhou route, Li Jiucheng, as the commander of the rebels, must find another breakthrough. Then Qixia and Pingdu are their most ideal breakthrough locations.
Although the landforms have changed in ancient and modern times, the general topography remains unchanged. From the map, these two places were still the places where national and provincial highways passed through in the 2nd century. Whether they captured Pingdu or Qixia, the rebels could rush out of Denglai and directly break into the richer and wider Xisanfu area.
Furthermore, once you enter Xisanfu, you can go north to Hebei, west to Henan, or south to the south when the situation is favorable. If the situation is unfavorable, you can still return to Denglai.
Now that the main force of the rebels has found another way and Zhu Dadian has also arrived in Qingzhou, the front committee believes that the fall of Laizhou is unlikely, and it makes little sense for Lu Zeyang to continue to stay in Laizhou. It is better to transfer to the newly built Zhaoyuan Village in Zhaoyuan area as a mobile force. This is the content of the order Lu Zeyang received.
"Finally I'm leaving." Lu Zeyang stretched out. He had been fighting in Laizhou for a long time. He had already formed "deep friendships" with the people here, the officers and soldiers, the gentry and even the rebels outside the city. ―Everyone who clashed with him was "heroically killed"――Now that I want to go back, I still feel a little reluctant to leave.
However, it is summer now, and he has almost eaten sea sausage and mackerel dumplings. There will be nothing new if I stay here any longer. Sun Yuanhua's plate is now stable, and according to private letters written by colleagues in the Finance Portal, many people in the Senate criticized him, saying that he was "not doing his job properly" in Laizhou, and after he proposed the plan to kill Zhu Dadian , and some people want to "take a head on the necklace to comfort the loyal ministers and martyrs."
"Commander!" Lu Zeyang sat up from the bamboo couch.
"Yes!" A messenger ran in - he did not bring this young man from Lingao. It was replenished on the spot in Dengzhou. In order to increase the combat effectiveness of the rural warriors, he mobilized all his soldiers to serve as their commanders.
"Everyone assemble!"
Lu Zeyang's retreat lasted for a day. He first went to the city to say goodbye to Sun Yuanhua. Although Sun Yuanhua was surprised by his sudden retreat, he had relied on him to keep the south gate from falling these days, and he also had a highlight of the Nanguan victory. Although he was a little worried about his retreat, Lu Zeyang said that he was relieved after the most dangerous period in Laizhou was over. These days, his judgment of the Australians has become a bit superstitious. He even felt that they were influenced by The will of God comes to save and guide him.
The gentry, civil and military officials in the city had to be polite. Although everyone had different ideas, they were all in the same boat. General Yang, General Peng and others were full of praise for the firearms of his subordinates, and wanted to get some "Australian firearms" from him. Selling arms is the established policy. Therefore, Lu Zeyang's application was quickly approved, and one hundred Nanyang-style rifles were shipped from Lingao, each with 50 rounds of bullets and flash caps, but without bayonets. The selling price is 20 taels of silver each. In addition, there are 0 ivory handle smoothbore flash cap revolvers for officers, equipped with 50 rounds of bullets and flash caps, priced at 45 taels of silver each.
Of course, the Senate does not lack these 2,000 taels of silver. This is just a stepping stone for the arms trade. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was the military leaders who became rich. It would be a shame for the elders of the Work Energy Commission not to make a good profit from them.
Yang Yufan bought 50 sticks at once - in fact, he wanted to buy them all, but other people also wanted to buy them, so they had to divide some of them, so Zhang Tao and others bought the remaining 50 sticks. Naturally, the pistols were also snapped up.
