Chapter 50 Every inch of land is our own
"I'm not wrong with you, good black bull, but where do you think of recruiting soldiers?"
Zhao Gang heard Hei Niu's words and cheered loudly
After hearing this, Hei Niu thought about it and asked happily:
"Inspector Zhao, I will go to Hulun River to recruit him 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. There are many people and few land there, and everyone is a hero. He is not afraid of death when fighting a war."
"Hei Niu, it seems that you are a person with a lot of heart. I don't care where to find someone, you can judge for yourself. However, you may not know how to recruit soldiers. I will teach you some of them, which will facilitate your recruitment training in the future."
Hei Niu nodded and listened carefully to Zhao Gang's words
"The first thing to call for soldiers is to look at the facial features. It is best to have eyes that are not scattered, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the lips are thick. The second thing to look at the skin, it is best to have thick and dark skin color and callous hands. The third thing to look at talking. It is best to have dull and taciturn. In addition, it is absolutely not allowed to join in. Once you find that you smoke smoke, you will be fired immediately."
After combining these few items, the others are not important. Even if you are considered to be a little worse, you will definitely become an elite soldier in the future.”
Hei Niu nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and Zhao Gang continued:
"After recruiting soldiers, the rewards and punishments must be clear. Those who advance bravely receive gold and silk, those who retreat cowardly receive axe and whip, the punishment should not be slack for a day, and the rewards must not be stopped for a day. The punishments in the army must be simple and clear, and they must not be ambiguous. Among the army, the most important military law is to be remembered. Those who violate military law must be punished!
"However, the natural principles are human feelings. After rewards and punishments, everyone will be convinced. This is to use "virtue". Only with virtue can one have power. Therefore, you must first be clear about your thoughts when doing things. It is not blinded by the servants. Naturally, you will be unbiased and will not be biased."
"But there are thousands of things in the world. If you have to do everything yourself, even if you count Wuhou’s rebirth, you will be powerless. Anyone who does things must first make a summary and let it go. I will only pick up the important points and follow the trend. I will achieve twice the result with half of the effort."
"If these three things are done, you will become a famous general in a generation. If you want to go to the next level, you must review what you have done every day and examine yourself three times. A small record every day, a mid-term record every year, and a major plan a year. If the future is better than before."
After Zhao Gang finished speaking, he looked at the black bull
"Black Bull, do you understand?"
"Inspector Zhao, I think what you said makes sense, but I have almost forgotten so many things."
"It's okay, I'll copy you after I return home."
"Inspector Zhao, thank you. I saw you so tired a while ago, but I still didn't understand the reason, but now I finally understand."
"Hei Niu, I have always regarded you as my brother, and I don't want to hide some of the words from you. Although the Qing Dynasty seemed to be full of flowers, the world was vanguard and the country would be burning. The country's power would be declining, and the chaotic times were not far away. Hei Niu, we should be heroes in this dangerous and chaotic times, and there is no shortcut besides labor. We must not regard ourselves as a high-ranking official and relax a little."
Zhao Gang's words were encouraged by Hei Niu on the one hand, and encouraged himself on the other hand.
After the Battle of Dagukou, Zhao Gang had already begun to consider how to go in the future on his way back to Lushun:
"Take the flag and rebel?" This road is a bit difficult, because after contacting people from all walks of life, Zhao Gang sadly discovered that the backward and corrupt court of the Qing Dynasty had not lost people's hearts. If he had to pull the flag and rebel, his subordinates would not have had a few people working with him. This road was obviously not possible."
"Learn from Yuan Shikai and take advantage of the situation to replace him?" This road is not good. Zhao Gang knew very well about Yuan Shikai's fate. In the end, it would be the fate of betrayal of relatives, and this was not what he wanted.
In the end, Zhao Gang didn't think of a good idea for his headache, so he had to comfort himself: "There must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain. God will not starve to death. Anyway, the biggest enemy, Japan, has fallen, and he still has a lot of time to wait. Lay your foundation first and wait for the changes in the world."
The next morning, Hei Niu rushed to Zhao Gang's mansion to report. Unlike in the past, Hei Niu brought two people over.
Hei Niu said to Zhao Gang: "Inspector Zhao, this is Liu Jiahai, who is responsible for the distribution of Japan and Russia in the Detective Camp."
Hei Newton paused, and the tall man on the left behind him took a step forward, bowed to Zhao Gang, and retreated behind Hei Newton.
"Li Yongfu"
The tall man on the right took a step forward, bowed to Zhao Gang, and retreated behind Hei Niu.
"Today, there were extremely major events in Japan and Russia, and I want them to talk about it."
"Well, say it."
"The youngest was named Liu Jiahai, who was in charge of the Russian branch. Fifteen days ago, the Russian emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne, named Yaresand II. After taking office, he sent 30,000 Cossacks to us. Seven days ago, the Russians saw that the North Korean plague was eliminated, so they transferred more than 60,000 troops in Heihezi. However, after our investigation, we found that more than 60,000 people in Heihezi were actually composed of refugees and had extremely weak combat power. The real main force was nowhere to be found, but after conducting a network-style search on the border, it was found that no large-scale gathering of regular troops was found 100 kilometers outside our border. Surprisingly, the prices of food and clothing in Vladivostok soared. Sixteen scouts had been sent to reconnaissance, but thirteen died and three were missing. The reconnaissance had no results. We could only judge in advance that the Russian army had gathered in Vladivostok, and the target was likely Japan."
"Yeah, I got it."
When the black bull saw it, he said to Li Yongfu:
"It's your time, let's talk."
"After Japan learned that the Dagukou was defeated half a month ago, the whole country was filled with grief. A few days later, a riot occurred, but it was quickly suppressed. The riots continued in the following days. Maybe to appease the hearts of the people, a few days ago, it actually announced a decisive victory against the Qing Dynasty. Emperor Guangxu had signed a city alliance, paid 60 million taels of silver, cede Northeast and Taiwan, and handed over the Qing Dynasty fleet to Japan for disposal."
"What!? When did this happen?"
"I reported to the incident on October 2nd, and because the Black Niu General Office felt it was ridiculous, he listed it as fake news and did not report it."
Zhao Gang's heart moved and couldn't help but look at Li Yongfu. He had a wide face but narrow bottom, thick cheeks and thick eyebrows, his eyes as sharp as eagles and falcons, and his bottom was slightly raised, with an unpleasant eagle-hooked nose, and his cold expression was filled with a sense of arrogance. The most famous person in history is Sima Yi. Most of these people are rebellious and will not be able to end up well.
Zhao Gang nodded slightly and said to Hei Niu:
"Okay, stay here, I have something to tell you."
After the two people left, Zhao Gang said to Hei Niu:
"Why is Japan's announcement of victory not reported?"
"At that time, Japan had only 20,000 troops, only a small number of rifles and few bullets. And there were at least 300,000 people in the capital. It was absolutely impossible for the Japanese army to win a sure victory, and it was impossible to achieve a great victory, so it was judged as false information and was not reported."
"Well, I understand. Today these two people are your chosen successors, right?"
Black bull nodded
"Yes, these two people are the best in the detective camp. They have similar abilities. I can't choose, so let you make the final decision."
Zhao Gang nodded:
"It's a dark thing, and if it falls into the hands of people with bad intentions, it will exert stronger destructive power. Therefore, I hand over the detective camp to you, hoping that your integrity and morality will reduce its negative impact. The detective camp is always a detective camp targeting foreigners. I hope you can teach this principle to the next person."
"I understand, what should Li Yongfu do?"
"This person is arrogant and unruly, and it is difficult to control. He is placed in a dark field and may cause a disaster. I will drop him into the army. This kind of personality is very plentiful in the army."
The black bull rubbed his hands back and forth, as if he wanted to use this to increase his courage.
"Inspector Zhao, I heard that the court granted your official position this time was actually promoted to you openly and secretly. The second-rank military officer will be taken back by you, and the fifth-rank civil servant will be taken back. This is obviously because the magistrates hold heavy troops, so the court has implemented this strategy. How can the court be so dissatisfied with such a wise and foolish court?
"Hei Niu, the emperor is in charge of power, and he will have his own way to get rid of the old and new ones, so there is no need to worry too much."
Zhao Gangyan said insincerely, although he knew clearly what kind of emperor Guangxu was.
"What the emperor knows, what he knows!"
Hei Niu sneered and said in a low voice.
"Inspector Zhao, our army of pacified the enemy's naval and army has greatly boosted its power, and now it has defeated the Japanese invaders at Dagukou. All the soldiers and civilians across the country have surrendered. A real man should be full of energy and should not rely on others' breath. Now China is in corruption, how can the heroes be interested?"
Before Zhao Gang could answer, Hei Niu said again:
"If the inspector has such a desire, the black cow is willing to work hard for dogs and horses, and even if he goes through fire and water, he will be willing!"
Zhao Gang's expression was frozen. If it weren't for the relatives of flesh and blood, who would dare to say it? Hei Niu's voice seemed so tempting.
"I have heard from the storyteller that Jiandian is the emperor." Yes, the last Zhao Jiandian also became emperor, and he also let his descendants become emperors for two hundred years.
"Brother, you have great achievements and are young. You either become a powerful minister or a founding lord. You have no choice."
At this time, a knock on the door appeared outside the door, awakening Zhao Gang from his dream. Hei Niu's words seemed to have lost his magic power in an instant. He was rebelling. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, many people had launched a war with such a dream. But in the end, the land of China was in trouble, and it only made the foreigners cheaper. None of these people were heroes, but they could not see through the trend of history. They did not know how to act as a mantis that blocked the carriage, which only made future generations laugh.
"Admiral Zhao is here?" Outside the door was Tang Shaoyi's voice, and Zhao Gang knew that something important must have happened, so he hurriedly called in.
Tang Shaoyi was not well-dressed and obviously rode all the way over, and saw the black bull hesitating.
Zhao Gang immediately said to Tang Shaoyi: "It's okay, the black bull is not an outsider."
"Admiral Zhao, no, the emperor and the Japanese signed an armistice agreement. The Northeast and Taiwan were ceased to Japan, and the compensation was 60 million taels of silver."
"What? Aren't the Japanese army only 20,000 at most?"
"Yes, there are actually only 16,000 people, including three thousand wounded."
"We have counted the guns and ammunition from them. They only had three thousand rifles at most, less than 20,000 bullets. The original 36,000 rifles and two.7 million bullets were seized by us!"
"Admiral Zhao, don't worry, sit down first."
"Admiral Zhao, the Japanese attacked Tianjin and got guns and ammunition."
"What about the defenders? 300,000. Even if the Japanese kill two of them with one bullet, there will be more than 200,000. They will be exhausted to death."
"I heard that 300,000 people all collapsed when they saw the Japanese fire a few shots."
"What about the emperor? He won't run out. The Japanese army is just at the end of his strength. When we run to us, will we destroy the Japanese again? Will we still have to sign the contract for the contract?"
"The common people say that the emperor doesn't like riding a horse, so he ordered people to carry a sedan chair. He took an hour's rest when he walked ten miles a day. As a result, he walked fifty miles in three days and was intercepted by the Japanese. The emperor was afraid that the Japanese would kill him, so he immediately signed the agreement."
Zhao Gang was full of grief and anger. If the court is immortal, what is the law of heaven? For a moment, I felt that I had nowhere to vent my anger. I tried my best to pull out my sword and chopped it to the desk.
