Shanglu Police Headquarters.
After Su Yu got off the car, he quickly returned to the headquarters and held an emergency meeting to discuss strategies for dealing with the imperial garrison.
Just now, after Wang Wen's suggestion, he really got into trouble. Why should the initiative be placed in the hands of the court instead of himself?
Why can't the slogan of this first shot be to overthrow the corrupt and incompetent court that oppresses the people? Why can't it be to overthrow the emperor who is in power and is arrogant and lewd!
The reason why they have no initiative is simply because they are afraid of the millions of troops in the imperial court.
However, for him who has the world's nuclear power, why should he be afraid of this million-strong mob? Under the powerful artillery fire, even another million-strong army is just more cannon fodder.
"Commander, why are you back today?"
Liao Yuanliang came to the headquarters and asked.
Then, Guo Dahai, Wang Wu and others also came to the headquarters one after another, and Su Yu asked for two headquarters from his father.
These two men are Deng Liang and Wu Hongxin respectively, serving as the commanders of the 4th Division and the 5th Division.
Su Yu planned to expand the strength of the two reserve divisions into regular troops, namely the 4th and 5th Guard Divisions.
After everyone gathered, Su Yu introduced the two commanders to everyone, and then told everyone about the court's movements.
"What!"
Liao Yuanliang frowned slightly and said, "The imperial court plans to send three more new troops to Shanglu to establish a garrison headquarters!"
"That's right."
Su Yu nodded in response.
"Well, it seems that after the imperial court trains the new army, it plans to clean up the old mountains and rivers," Liao Yuanliang said. "If the imperial court sends three new armies, then the balance we have worked hard to maintain for more than half a year will be broken."
"We can no longer care about so much. There must be a battle between us and the imperial court."
Su Yu looked at the generals and said, "However, before the war begins, we need to be fully prepared to deal with the encirclement and suppression by the imperial army."
"Wang Wu."
Su Yu asked Wang Wu, "How is the training of the two direct artillery regiments?"
"It only takes a month to get on the battlefield," Wang Wu said, patting his chest.
"very good."
Su Yu said loudly, "Your next task is to train a large number of artillery. Among them, the size of the 122mm howitzer regiments needs to reach five. As for the anti-aircraft artillery regiments, they can be put aside for the time being."
"Five?"
Wang Wu swallowed his saliva and responded.
"Also," Su Yu turned to Liao Yuanliang and said, "the reserve force will be expanded again. Soldiers can be recruited from Jiangnan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces."
"no problem."
Liao Yuanliang responded, "Our headquarters has eliminated gangs and banned cigarettes, and has left a good image in the hearts of the people. This can play a great role in the subsequent recruitment of soldiers."
"By the way," Liao Yuanliang looked at Su Yu and asked, "How many soldiers do you plan to recruit this time?"
"Five reserve divisions."
"What, five!"
Liao Yuanliang shouted in surprise, "Five reserve divisions and five artillery regiments, could it be the commander's plan?"
"You guessed it right. Before the war with the imperial court begins, all five infantry divisions of our security headquarters will be expanded into an army. We must ensure that we have more than 150,000 troops."
"But don't worry," Su Yu continued, "based on my understanding of the court, they need to collect this year's fiscal revenue and prepare the funds needed for the war before they choose to go to war with us."
"Due to the training of the new army, the treasury is already empty, and," Su Yu said slowly, "every year, the court needs to spend at least 48 million silver dollars in domestic needs.
The queen alone needs to spend nearly ten million silver dollars every year, so the court's war funds are not very sufficient. I have a hunch that within half a year, the court will not go to war with us, because as long as it deducts the daily expenses of our queen, She will get angry! "
"According to the Intelligence Bureau's investigation, this court action against us was planned by Marshal Zeng Tianle, the current Crown Prince, and the Prime Minister of the Cabinet."
"You also know that the reason why the imperial court has been able to last so long is because of this civil and military force. Now that this civil and military force is old, I think these two people want to help them before they die. The student, that is, the prince of the current dynasty, cleans up the old mountains and rivers and unifies the country."
"So I predict that the time left for us is only half a year. Within this half year, we must go all out to develop."
"Yuanliang," Su Yu said to Liao Yuanliang, "the five reserve divisions must be recruited within two months, and Wang Wu's artillery regiment must also be formed within half a year."
"clear."
"Everyone," Su Yu said, looking at the growing team in front of him, "the war is coming. I hope we can work together to create a bright future in this troubled world."
"We will follow the commander to the death!"
...
That afternoon, everyone began to mobilize urgently according to the order.
Liao Yuanliang led the recruitment offices to set up 170 recruitment offices in Shanglu, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Jiangnan. Under the name of the garrison headquarters, all recruitment offices were full.
Wang Wu began to vigorously train artillery, and for this purpose he also established an artillery training department.
Su Yu came to Dongsheng Group. Now he plans to expand five divisions into an army, so the money he will need to spend is naturally an astronomical figure. He needs to go to the group to check last year's income.
Dongsheng Group.
Because today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are not many employees in the company, but Wang Zhong, as the company's steward, still sticks to his job.
"Master, why are you here today?"
Wang Zhong, wearing a dark red brocade robe, asked Su Yu with a smile.
"There was something going on at the headquarters, so I came back early. No," Su Yu looked at Wang Zhong and said, "The matter has been resolved. I don't have much to do. I just wanted to come to the company to learn about last year's revenue and this year's business layout."
"Please come in, sir," Wang Zhong said with a smile, "just now all the data has been sorted out."
The two came to the office. Wang Zhong made a pot of tea for Su Yu, then took out a stack of documents from the safe, put on his reading glasses, dipped his fingers in saliva and flipped through the documents.
"Our Dongsheng Group has been established for one year and two months, and we officially started making profits a year ago. Our profit last year was 18.8 million silver dollars, which does not include the fact that we spent money to sell a dock, 13 cotton processing plants, and 7 cotton processing plants. Large restaurants, 9 large department stores, 19 Millennium Bank, hospitals, transportation companies, etc. Otherwise, our net income last year was 27.9 million."
