March 25, 1908, one year after Downing came to the West.
"Vinson, are the Browning pistols, Lee-Enfield rifles, Maxim machine guns, mortars, and rapid-fire gun production lines at the Glorious Arsenal ready for mass production?"
Tangning looked at the Los Angeles government through the window and asked Vincent, the personal secretary beside her.
"Young Master, we have begun mass production of equipment.
Among them, the monthly output of Browning pistols is 15,000 pieces and 360,000 rounds of bullets; the monthly output of Lee-Enfield rifles is 9,000 pieces and 300,000 rounds of bullets; the monthly output of Maxim machine guns is 1,200 pieces and 250,000 rounds of bullets; mortars The monthly output of artillery is 900 units and 78,000 rounds of artillery shells; the monthly output of rapid-fire artillery pieces is 500 units and 45,000 rounds of artillery shells.
Except for a small part of the equipment produced that was sold to the Xizou state government troops, most of the equipment has been equipped to the "Glorious West" and "Rocky Mountain" militia forces. "
“Well, well done, you can only be tough if you have a gun in your hand.
Let's build two more arsenals, one in Salt Lake City and one in Phoenix, and name them Light and Heroes.
Build a few more militia teams, each with a size of two thousand. Do this secretly and don't make any noise.
It is very important to me to think of more ways to obtain production licenses for famous guns and artillery from various countries. Don’t be afraid of spending money. We have plenty of money. "
The United States is not a country that prohibits guns, nor does it prohibit individuals and groups from holding guns. Militia groups have been active since the birth of the country before Downing's time travel.
Tang Ning wants to control the west. Although it can't be achieved overnight, she can take her time and infiltrate step by step.
The first step is to acquire a reliable armed force and army, the second step is to control production and markets in the west, and the third step is to use capital to manipulate elections.
The great man once said that the barrel of a gun is the foundation of an organization. How could Tangning forget that?
Besides, which big American capitalist doesn’t have an armed force at its disposal?
In addition to the secret army, Tang Ning also has a 3,000-strong armed force called Jinshan Security. Everything the security does is a tribute to and reference to them.
The American capitalists are very evil, and all those consortiums are predators, and their methods are very domineering.
For example, the DuPont consortium generally likes to invite its opponents to fly in unmanned aircraft, while Morgan and Rockefeller like to use machine guns to train people.
In addition to operating secretly, hiding and hiding, everything else Tang Ning does on the surface is usually very high-profile.
On the surface, what Tangning is doing now is like paying tribute to the consortium's predecessors.
"Whig Party, how is its power now?"
After focusing on the most important things, Tangning turned her attention to political forces.
"My lord, although the Whig Party was once very glorious and had many presidents, it fell into decline for a long time in the 1970s.
Although it has been supported and controlled by you since 1904, it is too small and lacks foundation.
The East only controls the rich and sparsely populated Rhode Island and Delaware, and the others are Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Alabama, Mississippi and other backward states.
In the west, due to the late penetration, it has only captured Montana, Edwards, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and California where we are now. "
The Whig Party is really a weakling, but because it is a weakling, it is easy to be controlled. From the time he paid attention to the United States, this small party fell into his hands.
"Don't expand in the eastern part of the United States. It is the territory of the Elephant Party and the Donkey Party, and it is now valued by them. This is not good.
The three developed states in the west, Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana, must not control it, otherwise it will definitely arouse complete hostility and attacks between the two parties.
Now we are already under hostility and attack from the Xiang Party and the Donkey Party. If we go too far, we will be targeted.
The triangle is a well-known stable form. What we do is to be a corner, not the so-called dominant one.
Keep the existing control area in the east and get a few seats in other areas. We first control the western plateau area and the three coastal states. This is the key.
I have established the Whig Party headquarters in San Francisco and five fulcrums in Salt Lake City, Oklahoma, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Lincoln. In the future, our base will be in the West. "
When Tang Ning said this, he hit on the most important points, establishing the goals and basic plan for the restored Niu Party Whigs.
"Don't touch the foundation of Ansa. There are some places that you cannot touch, such as the Great Lakes region. You don't know how powerful they are.
The east must not expand. Just keep the few existing states and have some congressmen from other states. Just let our bull party have a voice in the east.
The west is the key. There are many Latin peoples, Easterners, and Indians who hate Ansa.
In this place, the proportion of pan-German ethnic groups such as Angsa and Germans is small, so this is our basic base.
We must keep in mind that to play the card of ethnic equality, Orientals, Latins and Indians must be in control and do not let others interfere.
The party platform that has always been opposed to the totalitarian government must be adhered to. The United States must be a three-pillar structure, and one company must be opposed.
What we have to do now is just like the current bull logo of the Whig Party. We need to be down-to-earth. The West is our basic base, and guarding it here is the key.
Vincent, the Niu Party must be under control, and any dissidents and traitors should be eliminated without any hidden dangers. "
Vincent took a pen and quickly wrote down the important outlines in the book. He wanted to firmly understand Tang Ning's spirit.
"Yes, young master, I remember everything."
"Well, you must remember it."
Tangning looked back at the Los Angeles government, patted Vincent on the shoulder with a smile, and encouraged him.
"This time I am sending you to the San Francisco party headquarters, and you must help me keep an eye on it.
Although your mother is Irish and you are of mixed race, you know that I never treat you as an outsider.
Work well and I will love your only daughter well. If you have children in the future, your grandson will have a share of my property. "
"Thank you, young master for your grace."
Vincent was extremely moved after hearing Tang Ning's words, because he knew that Tang Ning, the young master of the Wen family and the heir to Braganza, had a promise worth a thousand dollars.
"Before going to Los Angeles, go to Salt Lake City to inspect the Niu Party branch, and by the way, help me send half a million dollars to the Mormon Church.
Observe the branch situation, and visit Brigham Young University more. When you go to Utah, you just have to see more in all aspects, especially religion.
This Mormon is very important to me. Although I am now the leader of this sect, there will still be dissidents and careerists.
I converted to Mormonism, mastered it, and was welcomed and loved by many believers.
Under my leadership, the sect has actively developed and expanded its influence, but we must be wary of heresy at all times.
Mormon, please keep me pure, I want no heretics. "
After Tangning came to the west, he quickly realized the potential of the emerging sect Mormons, decisively used means to control it, and actively promoted it.
This sect was a big-name sect in the United States in later generations. Although its starting point was not very good, it continued to flourish.
Tang Ning, taking advantage of this sect while it is still weak, will definitely not be a loss.
Controlling the west cannot only be limited to economic and political aspects, but also has many aspects, including culture and religion, multiple latitudes, and multiple fields. It must also be controlled in the palm of your hand.
There can only be one sun in the west!
Tang Ning established the right to speak in the Western Conference. It is not enough to limit it to one side. You must have your own control over all aspects.
