"Of course! I promise!"
Hearing this, Zhao Ming nodded decisively, but seeing some doubts on Zhang Kai's face, he added,
"Don't worry, I'm not desperate for my life.
A lot of their Outer Mongolian military uniforms were stripped off the prisoners of war. I plan to have all the brothers put on these, and we pretend to be a large Outer Mongolian army and sneak into the enemy's hinterland.
Once we can capture that firepower-enhanced battalion, we will also consider ourselves an anti-independence army in Outer Mongolia.
It will definitely not fall into the trap of others, and the domestic high-level officials will not be under pressure because of it, but we can secretly tell the high-level officials about this matter.
It can be said that while gaining both fame and fortune, it will not give Russia any excuse. "
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Kai was stunned. He really hadn't thought about this in such detail.
After hearing what Zhao Ming said, he finally remembered that it would definitely not be possible to openly attack a Russian firepower-enhanced battalion.
But with this layer of skin, even if Russia knew clearly that it was them who did it, there was nothing they could do but pinch their noses and admit defeat.
In addition, the unrest that one hundred thousand people could cause was unimaginable, so I was afraid that I would have to forcibly recall the Qiyan tribe to carry out a joint suppression.
But after hearing what Zhao Ming said, Zhang Kai felt relieved.
After being so careful, I think Zhao Ming won't mess around this time.
It’s better to be cautious! Being cautious means that people are much more honest than before.
Just thinking about this, Zhang Kai felt inexplicably weird, honest?
When this word is used on Zhao Ming, it sounds strange to me!
At this time, seeing that Zhang Kai, the most stable person among them, agreed to Zhao Ming's plan, the others looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
At least it proves that Mr. Zhao's decision is not random, and he also said that he will withdraw his troops immediately when he finds that something cannot be done.
Now that the matter was settled, everyone's chatter suddenly became active and they expressed their opinions one after another.
"Master Zhao, I must have a hand in this matter. We have been killing each other in the country before. Although it is fun, I still want to go abroad to have a chance to meet the Russians.
By the way, are Russians the kind with tall noses and blond hair? I haven't met any Russians yet. "
Monkey rubbed his hands excitedly. He didn't understand what he said before, but when he heard that there was a chance of a head-on confrontation with the Russians, his heart suddenly trembled with excitement.
Zhao Ming glanced at the other party and laughed and cursed, "What? You were quite afraid of the Outer Mongolians before, but now you are not afraid of the Outer Mongolians, nor are you afraid of the Russians?"
He still remembered that Monkey, after he was almost shot to death by an Outer Mongolian scout for the first time, his attitude towards the Outer Mongolians changed for a while.
However, after several subsequent fights with the Outer Mongols, I was actually very excited to fight against the Outer Mongols.
It is typical for people like Monkey to remember the beating but not the pain. Unless the beating really hurts, the kid will turn around and forget.
"That's different. I haven't seen foreigners before. I just want to go out and see the world this time!" Monkey smiled and scratched his head.
Wang Er on the side was a little surprised.
"No way, you haven't seen foreigners? Many foreigners have come to open churches here in recent years. Are there none in Guanzhong?
Oh no! Brother Hou, didn’t you say you had played Ocean Horse? You also said you wanted to take me to play with you? "
Hearing what Wang Er said, Monkey's expression suddenly changed, and Wan Duzi spilled the beans.
Ignoring these two people, everyone began to discuss in detail about settling in Outer Mongolia.
At the same time, the Dutong Mansion on the other side seemed very relaxed in comparison.
At this time, a line of vigorous and powerful characters was clearly written in black and white on the white paper on the desk, and there was another village with dark flowers and bright flowers.
"Sir, I'm very happy to congratulate you. The commander-in-chief just called me. Although he didn't praise me, it's clear that this matter has been revealed."
Adjutant Ren smiled and cupped his hands, his mood became as happy as the officer's.
"But sir, should the military meeting continue to be held? Regarding the use of troops on the grassland..."
It was not that Adjutant Ren mentioned this matter deliberately. The main reason was that it involved a large amount of financial expenditure for Chahar.
Although it is a good thing that the commander-in-chief is determined to manage education, he does not consider the following difficulties.
The land of Jin belongs to the territory directly under the commander-in-chief. Needless to say, the financial accumulation there can be used to develop education. At worst, it can be supplemented by other local finances.
But the situation in Chahar is very special. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is very poor. Not to mention the vast land and sparse population, it is not an economically strong province. The only oil and water that can be obtained is some mining and heavy industry.
But these are all for military needs, and there are very few private ones, and they can't scrape a few layers of oil and water.
After all, we have to consider the difficulties of other private businesses and cannot make a one-time deal.
Since the parents took over this place only a short time ago, it had always been someone else's territory, and what was left behind was still a mess.
As a result, as soon as he took over, the Marshal allocated a huge sum of money, amounting to millions of dollars.
However, when the order was issued, education was a major aspect. The commander felt that the banditry in Chahar must be due to insufficient education, and the cultural level here must be improved.
For this reason, a large group of cultural intellectuals were transferred from Shanxi Province and began to form an education bureau without any explanation.
Yes, finances are suddenly tight now.
But Adjutant Ren had been with his senior officer for many years, and he didn't know his own senior officer's temperament. He was brought up by a commander, and he was just as stingy.
This is both a question and a reminder to my parents that our finances are tight.
As expected, Zhang Li's brows suddenly condensed when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice, "How much silver do we still have in the treasury now?"
"Uh...Sir, I've already asked, it's less than 200,000 oceans."
Adjutant Ren lowered his head as he spoke.
"Why is there only this little left? Where is my millions of oceans?" Zhang Li was shocked when he heard this.
It had only been half a year since he took over Chahar, and Chahar was still the spoils of victory for his commander during the second Northern Expedition in the first half of this year.
But how long has it been, only half a year, and 800,000 oceans have been spent? !
"Yes...that's right, sir, we have invested a lot in education. You have forgotten that construction has started in various cities and towns in the past few months, and new schools and colleges are being built.
The investment of so much manpower and material resources is not small.
There was also the initial suppression of bandits. Because of the multiple efforts, you also rewarded the soldiers.
Later, I found that there were too many to clean out, so I gave up. "
Adjutant Ren's words reminded Zhang Li of what was going on.
It is true that there are too many bandit troubles in Chahar. It can be wiped out in other places with more efforts, but here, if the problem is not fundamentally solved, it is impossible for these bandit troubles to disappear.
"Then you're still asking about using soldiers? What kind of soldiers are you going to use? Supervise that Zhao Ming!"
Zhang Li frowned and immediately gave up his plan to continue using troops on the grassland.
On the one hand, there is really no money. Once the army moves, a huge amount of military expenditure will be spent, which is simply unaffordable.
Now he can deploy an entire division, and the monthly military expenditure alone is as much as 180,000 yuan. Of course, this is partly supported by local taxes and partly supported by military allocations from above. It has little impact on the government treasury.
But once the troops are launched rashly, the extra expenses will be an ocean in the treasury. If you fight a war, maybe 100,000 or 200,000 oceans will be gone.
