Since these Japanese no longer had any threat to the Liaodong Army, Zhou Zhongju's nervous heart was relieved.

Of course, as the steward of the Liaodong Army, Zhou Zhongju did not forget to remind Yang Xingguo before leaving, taking advantage of the fact that the Japanese still believed in themselves, they would extort some silver, weapons and ammunition from the Japanese.

General Shengjing’s Mansion and General Shengjing Zengqi have been in a very good mood over the past two months.

It took a lot of money to buy weapons and equipment for the new army.

However, in Zengqi's opinion, these silvers are definitely worth spending.

The new army changed its clothes and formed combat effectiveness. As General Shengjing, Zengqi's back became much harder.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

Because of the new army, Zengqi often took advantage of the situation to rob the surrounding areas of Shengjing, and even attacked bandits who had enough of his own will, so he no longer had mercy.

In the past two months, the new army has launched five consecutive attacks, eliminating a total of five bandits.

Not only did it completely clear the public security around Shengjing and gain a good reputation, but it also brought back a lot of money and food through seizure.

The seized silver alone is enough to offset all the expenses of purchasing equipment.

Faced with one benefit after another, especially the income from money and grain, if Zengqi is in a bad mood, it will be abnormal.

At this moment, Zengqi was thinking with a thoughtful look on his face, thinking about whether the new army would attack again, go to a place further outside Shengjing to suppress bandits, and bring him more money and food income.

Just now, the old butler suddenly pushed the door open and said to Zengqi.

"Sir, Lord Liang, the magistrate of Anshan County, is here... Because you have explained before, I have taken Lord Liang to the living room. I wonder if the master is going to see him immediately..."

"See, of course you have to see me, and you have to see me immediately..." Zengqi said subconsciously, and his eyes also shot out two hot gazes.

In Zengqi's opinion, although he had only met Liang Cheng a few times, every time Liang Cheng came, he almost brought some benefits to him.

Without Liang Cheng, the new army would not have been able to change clothes to form combat power. As for itself, it would not have been possible for such a good situation now.

So, after hearing the news of Liang Cheng's arrival, Zengqi subconsciously thought that Liang Cheng must have brought him benefits.

In the living room of General Shengjing's Mansion, after the two of them greeted each other, Liang Cheng said directly without hesitation.

"Sir, the official got a very important news from the Liaodong Army. He dared not neglect it. He came to the General's Mansion to report to you..."

"Important news?" Seeing Liang Cheng's serious expression on his face, it didn't seem like a joke, Zeng Qi's face also became serious.

A pair of eyes stared at Liang Cheng, waiting for Liang Cheng to come to the following.

Soon, Liang Chengru continued to speak: "The lower officials learned from Yang Xingguo, the Liaodong Army that in three months, the Japanese would launch an attack on the Russian army stationed in Liaodong and compete with the Russian army for control over Liaodong."

As the actual manager of Liaodong, although Zengqi is speechless in Liaodong, such a big thing happened in Liaodong, and it is closely related to the two great powers of Japan and Russia. It is impossible for Zengqi to not pay attention to it.

So, as soon as Liang Cheng finished speaking, Zengqi frowned.

He asked Liang Cheng with a serious and serious question: "Is the news true... Lord Liang. You must know that this matter not only concerns Liaodong, but also the court and the two great powers. We must be cautious and cautious... ""The subordinates dare to use their lives to guarantee the guarantee..." Speaking of this, Liang Cheng immediately told him about his experience at the Liaodong Military Command.

Zengqi was not simple at all to become General Shengjing.

After only a brief thought, he said to Liang Cheng: "This Yang Xingguo plans to take advantage of the troubled waters during the war between the Japanese and Liaodong Army... He is really brave..."

"However, as long as the Liaodong Army is actually enough, and Yang Xingguo is well-organized, even if the two powerful forces cannot be driven out of Liaodong, they can still grab a lot of things from the two powerful forces..."

"However, once the battle between the two great powers of Japan and Russia is over, the Liaodong Army will face the joint encirclement and suppression of the two great powers. No one can be sure of the final result..."

"Sir, wise..." Liang Cheng quickly spoke and complimented.

Then, he continued to Zengqi: "It was precisely because of this that Yang Xingguo, the Liaodong Army, entrusted his subordinates to find the emperor, hoping that the emperor could submit a report with the emperor to the court and let the court give some support to the Liaodong Army..."

"Yang Xingguo is confident that as long as he has the support of the court, he can be a good fisherman in the bloody battle between Japan and Russia, and fight for as much as possible for the court to become the biggest beneficiary."

"If possible, it would be best to drive all the forces of Japan and Russia from Liaodong..."

"Of course, in order to avoid the two great powers of Russia and Japan from taking a handle that is unfavorable to the court, the court does not need to send troops to support the Liaodong Army, or directly support the Liaodong Army's weapons, ammunition and other materials..."

"The Liaodong Army has just eliminated a Russian division, and it suffered heavy losses. It is urgently needed a large number of troops to replenish the troops and restore its strength... "" However, the population outside the pass is limited, and even fewer people are willing to join the army to fight the Russians. These people alone cannot restore the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army... "Yang Xingguo hopes that the emperor can persuade the court, publicize the achievements of the Liaodong Army in the pass, and make the Liaodong Army famous all over the world. At the same time, he called on all the knowledgeable people and soldiers in the pass to voluntarily leave the pass and join the Liaodong Army and fight the Russians..."

"In this way, the court does not need to pay a tael of silver, nor does it have any handle to be captured by the two great powers of Russia and Japan, so that the Liaodong army can quickly restore its strength..."

"If the Liaodong Army restores its strength, it can serve the court in the upcoming Russo-Japanese War and gain more benefits for the court!"

"Even if the Liaodong Army fails, the court will not suffer any losses."

"Not only that, the court will also gain a lot of people's hearts through this matter..."

Seeing that Zengqi had been silent, Liang Cheng's words changed and continued: "Of course, Yang Xingguo, the Liaodong Army, also said that he would not let the adults help in vain..."

"Yang Xingguo promised that as long as the adults can persuade the court and let the court support the Liaodong Army, Yang Xingguo would send five hundred rifles and three heavy machine guns to the new army to increase the combat effectiveness of the new army..."

"In addition, Yang Xingguo also said... If the adults could persuade soldiers outside the pass to voluntarily join the Liaodong Army, as long as there were enough numbers, Yang Xingguo would also send two mountain cannons and fifty shells that seized the Russian army..."

"As far as Xiaguan knows, even the Beiyang New Army in the pass is rarely equipped with this kind of mountain cannon..."

"Even if you have to buy it with silver, you will have to buy tens of thousands of taels of silver for a cannon, and it is difficult to buy..."

At this time, Zengqi, who had been silent, was finally moved.

However, no matter how excited he was, he did not immediately reply to Liang Cheng.

Yang Xingguo gave himself a very generous reward. However, as an important official of the court, Zengqi also had his own ambitions. In addition to getting these rewards, he also had to consider maximizing his own interests...

This is so big and happening in your own jurisdiction. As long as you operate it properly, you may earn a huge amount of political capital for yourself. (To be continued.)
