Signing from HK Comprehensive becomes a legend

Chapter 634 Do you understand now?Figured it out?
The yamen of Dengfeng town guards.

In the new Shaolin Temple story, after Cao Man got the support of the bully Peter Yihang, all other warlords of the dragon set level, such as Tang Dashuai, Zhang Dashuai, Wang Dashuai, Gao Dashuai and so on.

At this moment, they are gathering in the lobby of the guarding envoy's government office, each with their adjutants and soldiers, some sitting quietly while drinking tea, some communicating with the left and right with their eyes, and some whispering together.

A few minutes later, Marshal Tang, who was in charge of Los Angeles, coughed lightly, and said in a normal voice, "What do Song Hu and Hou Jie mean? They invited so many of us from all over the world, and they said they would hold a conference. How long has it been? Haven’t seen anyone yet?”

Marshal Xu, who is in charge of Zheng Cheng, also frowned and said, "The two of them think that they can issue orders to us?"

Regardless of whether Marshal Xu and Marshal Tang can take control of one side, their original military strength is actually no worse than that of Hou Jie and Song Hu. Before those two conquered the summit, they were even stronger than Hou Song.

It's just that those two neatly settled the original summit Huolong, not to mention grabbing a new site, and they also joined forces. This is the reason why they were willing to come to a meeting after receiving the invitation and after thinking about it.

But after entering the city, neither Hou Jie nor Song Hu showed up, nor did they greet them in person, but let the soldiers send them to a hotel or the residence of some local tyrants and evil gentry, and then scheduled a meeting at 9 o'clock this morning.

It's almost 09:30...

Still not showing up?
The dissatisfaction and anger of a group of commanders has accumulated very seriously.

Just under the words of Marshal Xu, outside the lobby of the guardian envoy's yamen, there was a sound of respectful words that I have seen the Marshal and the Marshal.

Hearing that, the handsome and that commander in the main hall stopped talking, turned silent and looked towards the door.

Tens of seconds later, Zhao Xueyan walked in with Hou Jie, Cao Man, Song Hu, Adjutant Shi and others. It was obvious that this group of people was headed by Mr. Zhao, and Hou and Song acted like younger brothers.

The group of generals who were waiting to launch an attack were a little confused.

Hou Jie and Song Hu know each other, who is Zhao Xueyan? ?

Mr. Zhao... Some aspects of Mr. Zhao are not low-key, but high-profile, such as controlling Peter and other foreigners in front of Hou and Song, and talking about the money from the Ministry of Finance in front of Hou and Song...

But only Hou Jie, Song Hu, and Cao Man know about those.

There are relatively few insiders, and it is far from spreading to a wide range.

These foreign marshals don't know that Mr. Zhao is in this area.

Mr. Zhao turned himself into Brother Jiutiao and founded the Ma Bandit Heavenly Group. The incident caused a lot of trouble in Sanankang, but Sanankang is too far away from Yu Province.

Song Hu also took the initiative to contact the people over there to investigate after Mr. Zhao showed his power. It took a lot of time and money to get some general information.

If you don't investigate in advance, it can be said that you are just a small warlord entrenched in various parts of Henan Province, and it is difficult to keep abreast of Sanankang's internal changes. Warlords will always pay attention to other provinces thousands of miles away?
This room is a commander or something.

At present, I don't know how much the situation of Dengfeng has changed. Even if Mr. Zhao suddenly appeared, if he didn't check in advance, he wouldn't know.

The crowd was in a daze, but Mr. Zhao did his part. He made his way steadily to the depths of the guardian envoy's hall, and sat on the central seat, with Hou Jie and Song Hu standing below.

Mr. Zhao was surprised by a group of foreign commanders and commanders, and said with a smile, "I am Zhao Xueyan. This time, Marshal Hou and Marshal Song sent invitations to you all, and I strongly invite you to climb the peak for a while. That's what I mean."

"My purpose is very simple. I hope to spend money to borrow the soldiers and horses of the commanders."

"Whoever is willing to let me use my soldiers and horses, each person can draw a loan fee of 20 oceans a year. At the same time, I will cover the food, clothing, housing and transportation of those soldiers and horses, so you don't need to spend extra money. Similarly, I will guarantee you After handing over these soldiers and horses, personal security can be guaranteed and will not be attacked or replaced by others."

"When the period of use is over, you can get back your own troops."

When these words were finished, Hou Jie and Song Hu were expressionless, while Marshal Tang of Luocheng changed his face suddenly, and slapped the table to get up, "Song Hu, Hou Jie, you are going to risk the world's dissatisfaction for the purpose of the meeting." Take all of us in name?"

"You guys are very courageous, but I'm afraid you don't have the strength!"

Marshal Xu of Zheng Cheng also stood up annoyed, snorted coldly and didn't say much, but his hand was already on the gun pouch.

Dengfeng is already Hou Song's territory, and most of their soldiers and horses are also stationed here, but these generals from all over the world are willing to come to the talks, and they also bring some people with them.

Marshal Xu led [-] elite soldiers, most of whom were temporarily stationed outside Dengfeng City, and only [-] personal soldiers entered the city with him.

The same goes for other handsome men of all kinds.

Otherwise, when the soldiers are in chaos, who doesn't know how many soldiers they have and how much power they have to speak?Will they be so stupid to enter the summit alone?
With everyone united, the total force still surpasses Hou Jie and Song Hu.

The hotel, gentry's manor, or house they stayed in before was not too far from the town guard's yamen. As long as they sent a signal, our team would rush to rescue people.

More marshals and commanders were furious, or shouted or drew their guns.

Mr. Zhao coughed lightly, and waved his hands with a smile, "Don't be nervous, do you think 20 yuan a year is too little? That's not too little. Based on the monthly salary of a soldier who pays 8 yuan, it's 5000 yuan. One month's full military pay."

"But don't forget that it refers to the treatment of elites in Beiyang towns, and there are often examples of deduction of salary. There are really not so many people who actually get paid."

"You are lending me soldiers, and then doing nothing else. You get 20 yuan for nothing, which is enough to meet your living expenses for a year. If you want more, you will be greedy."

20 can deal with 30 elite, one month's military pay.But at the moment, there are more than a dozen generals in the lobby. Calculated in this way, what he took out at one time can make the army pay more than [-] yuan for a month.

Does Henan Province have more than 30 troops?
Far from it.

Before the fall of the three eastern provinces, the combined regular army of the three provinces was only 40. How could there be 30 regular troops in Yu Province in the era of warlord melee.

After the Zhiwan War, when the Zhili warlords reached their peak, they controlled North China, East China and all parts of the Central Plains, six or seven provinces, with a total force of only 60...

Yu Province is just one place. Most of these warlords have only 2 to 10 people, and the weak ones are less than [-], and the total number is in the early [-]s.

That's not too elite.

Spending 300 million oceans a year to get rid of this group of warlords is already a manifestation of Mr. Zhao's kindness. Who made him so kind by nature.

If it's a bit of a waste, you don't need to send the Ma Bandit Tiantuan over. You only need to dress up Song Hu and Hou Jie's subordinates and annex them one by one, and you can take care of Yu Province.

It’s just that it’s inappropriate to do that. Yu Province was just a place hit by various droughts and natural disasters in the 40s and [-]s. If you push Henan Province in this way first, and then deal with other provinces... that is to win the whole of China what?

Once it is pushed horizontally in Yu Province, all the old warlords, no matter which department they belong to, will unite to fight Mr. Zhao.

You said that he hired people from the people in Hebei Province, and other warlords saw that Yu Province was pushed horizontally, so they would not be too courageous to easily unite and fight against him?Just like Sanankang Liu Dujun, afraid to beat him and dare not move?

There is one thing to say, at present, Ji Province is recruiting workers from the people, but after the Zhiwan War, he still intends to borrow some soldiers. Instead of letting those big soldiers rely on the warlords to exploit the people in various ways, how can they be thrown into the water conservancy project? Play light and heat well.

In the severe drought in the five northern provinces, it was not the main battlefield of the Zhiwan War, so he also planned to buy soldiers to try.

It's not that he can't do the warlord alliance...but it's not harmonious like that.

It's still a small warlord bought with money to sing and dance, and all the bandit soldiers in troubled times were transferred to the Construction Corps, engaged in infrastructure construction, water conservancy and so on.

Faster and more efficient benefits to the country and the people.

After all, in troubled times, the most feared thing is that bandits are like a comb and soldiers are like a grate.

Under his explanation, a group of marshals were still excited, and some were already clamoring for more soldiers to rush into the lobby.

When the chaos first emerged, Mr. Zhao shook his head helplessly, his hands turned into ice, and life and death talismans sank into the bodies of more than a dozen warlords, including an adjutant and a pair of soldiers they brought with them, as quickly as possible.

Then crushed a talisman, covering the hall of the yamen, this is the soundproof talisman.

........................

After some time.

Everyone recovered from the horrific torment of the life-death talisman, and they all lay limp and shivering on the ground. Mr. Zhao walked through the collapsed crowd calmly.

"The situation is like this, talk to you well, why don't you understand?"

"Now that I borrow soldiers, the conditions have dropped. Each of you can only receive 10 oceans for free a year."

"But still the same sentence, I will guarantee your general personal safety during the borrowing period, and will not be attacked by others to grab the territory. When the borrowing time is over, I will return your military rights."

"Did everyone understand??"

……

Under the words, a certain commander who barely recovered a little strength suddenly grabbed the pistol that fell on the ground, and raised his hand tremblingly, "What monster? I will fight with you..."

The life and death talisman continued to strike.

Dozens of people still had the attack together, only Hou Jie, Song Hu, Cao Man and others were fine, because Zhao Zonggang talked to them about the plan to borrow troops to build water conservancy and farming, and they agreed.

No resistance.

Also did not eat the life and death talisman and the three corpse brain god pill package.

Anyway, this yamen lobby has been blocked by the sound-proof talisman, and the movement here will not be transmitted.

Marshal Hou and Marshal Song could only be extremely grateful to watch a group of people lie on the ground again and be tortured to death.

…………

after an hour.

The group of people calmed down again, Mr. Zhao said with a smile, "Do you understand now? Have you figured it out?"

Someone from the crowd on the ground spoke again, "I..."

Mr. Zhao resolutely triggered the life and death talisman torture.

A certain man whose opening voice turned into a howl screamed miserably while struggling to make a sound, "What I said is that I figured it out and agreed..."

Zhao Xueyan just slapped his thigh, "If you didn't say it earlier, forget it, since it's all aroused, let's enjoy it for a while."

"It's a bit miserable, but I can control the situation, and I won't die."

Hou Jie and Song Hu looked at each other, and both shed tears of emotion.

Brother, we are indeed smart people!
........................

a few days later.

In the area around Dengfeng City, thousands of figures in gray military uniforms were already visible, renovating the soil in the field, but Dengfeng, Hou Jie and Song Hu's troops took control and sorted out thousands of acres of farmland.

There are upper, middle and lower fields.

It is now close to the time of the Lantern Festival, which is already the beginning of March in the Gregorian calendar.

In China, the planting time of many crops is different. There is a big time difference between the south of the Yangtze River and the north.In Henan, Shaanxi, Hebei and other provinces, potatoes can already be planted. In these provinces, a wave of planting will be done in February-March, and a wave of harvesting will be around June.

Wait until August or September to plant another wave, and harvest again the next year.

The potato seeds brought by Mr. Zhao are all detoxified and high-yield seeds that have undergone various cultivation and optimization in the 21st century, and their drought resistance is also very good.

As for the number of seeds, he can buy potato seeds from the Transformers plane at will from all over the world...

Today, the soldiers and horses who ascended the peak wore military uniforms and went to work in the field. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it can be done like this in the whole Henan province. As for the fields, most of them belonged to Hou Jie and Song Hu. They robbed them, and the other part was The title deed held by the government.

Mr. Zhao has long thought about planting sweet potatoes, but the best time is April and May, and he can't just wait until April and May.The spring millet is also planted in late April, and the summer valley will have to wait until June to sow.

The planting time of millet is about May and June, and it will be harvested in mid-autumn.

First plant detoxified and high-yield potatoes on these thousands of acres of land, use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and wait for the large convoy of water conservancy construction to come, and give priority to opening canals near here. In the process, you can continue to buy land and find those who are interested in selling it. Let’s talk about Lao Cai, the landlord of the land.

Slowly buy land, the time is right, and the high-yield and drought-resistant sweet potatoes, millet, and millet will be planted again.

In addition to buying, you can also let the Gray Army Corps cooperate with various convoys to reclaim new fields. After all, some land that cannot grow wheat may not be unable to grow potatoes.

The whole Henan province, and even the other four provinces, can follow this routine.

…………

Time goes by.

In April 1920, many signs of the great famine caused by drought had been revealed. The wheat fields in most of the plains of Henan, Shaanxi, and Hebei provinces were either extremely poorly developed, with shallow roots and yellow seedlings, or large areas. directly withered.

In the fields outside the urban and rural areas, there are even large areas of dry and cracked land.

It's okay to say that only one city and one county is like this, but Bai Xiongqi, Bai Xiuzhu and his party took a car and passed through dozens of counties along the way. On both sides of the spacious official road that was leveled by various road rollers, such famine scenes were everywhere.

There are also many common people who have begun to migrate collectively and flee famine.

In the back seat of a certain car, Bai Xiuzhu was shocked, "These scenes are really scary, even if it's not the first time I've seen it... It's been like this all the way, so how should people in these prefectures and counties live this year."

Bai Xiongqi took the old Duan's order and came to Yu Province to meet Mr. Zhao and talk about something, why Lao Bai?Lao Bai's sister was kidnapped by Mr. Zhao.

This kidnapping friendship shouldn't be too bad, right?
The Zhiwan War originally took place in July. At the beginning of the war, the warlords of the Anhui clique were still all kinds of arrogant and arrogant...the result was defeated in five days.

At this point in time in this plane, Lao Duan's self-confidence made him still feel that he still has a lot of confidence in victory, but isn't this afraid that Mr. Zhao will favor Zhifeng and the Southern Alliance?
He hinted in various ways that as long as Bai Xiongqi can persuade Mr. Zhao not to favor his opponent, you will be the next No. [-] person.

Mr. Bai, this is to sell the girl.

Ever since Mr. Zhao demonstrated the rapid development of the mechanized convoy outside the capital, he no longer wanted his sister to marry Jin Yanxi.Before encountering the kidnapping case, Chief Bai also noticed the signs of the war between Zhiwan and Anhui, and he was not enthusiastic about the marriage.

He also persuaded Bai Xiuzhu not to rush to make a decision.

Not to mention his mood after he discovered such an excellent person as Mr. Zhao.

This is the first time for Miss Bai to leave... From the perspective of the upper class, she was shocked to witness the horror of the catastrophe.

Under her words, Chief Bai also expressed doubts, "That person buys grain in the capital and the south, and has been transporting it to the five northern provinces. He also planted high-quality potato seeds from abroad in early March to build water conservancy."

"Could it be that this famine was foreseen long ago?"

Bai Xiuzhu was shocked and said, "This famine can also be predicted in advance?? Is he a magic stick?"

Bai Xiongqi was speechless.

After a moment of silence, he explained, "It's not that miraculous. The drought was a sign of last year's autumn harvest, but the situation was good last year. The impact was relatively small and easy to control. If there are a few heavy snowfalls in winter... the auspicious snow will herald a good year."

"But you also know that the snowfall in the five provinces and counties is much less than in previous years. Since the Spring Festival, how many times it has rained and snowed, you can just collect the records."

"It doesn't need to be as exaggerated as a magic stick. Experienced farmers can infer the general situation of the summer harvest based on the weather changes."

Only then did Bai Xiuzhu feel relieved, "Boss Duan should also be able to receive this information, right? Have you taken countermeasures?"

Bai Xiongqi, "..."

He didn't want to talk a bit. Did he just say that we knew about it? There were also many agricultural officials urging him, but no matter whether Lao Duan or the official boss of the Anfu Department, he didn't care much about such trivial matters.

The most important thing at the moment is how to fight against other groups?If we win, that's the finishing work we need to consider. If we lose...that's none of my business.

As the convoy continued to drive, the eyes of several people in the car lit up, looking at the end of the front view, Bai Xiuzhu said excitedly, "It's so green, have you met that brother Jiutiao's potato field again?"

Compared with the withered and dilapidated large tracts of land, the most pleasant thing about passing through dozens of counties along the way is that after walking for a while, you may encounter continuous acres of potato fields, although it is still early to harvest.

But the green potato seedlings are connected into a piece, often tens of acres or even hundreds of acres.

This kind of green gives people a very different feeling in the famine!
Bai Xiongqi smiled wryly again, it wasn't once or twice that they encountered green potato fields, many times, they also found that there were already built canals, flowing river water passing through the fields, and even small drainage canals to divert water into the fields, connecting to the ground.

Only in this way can a large green field be created.

After all, with the size of Mr. Zhao's steel fleet, it is unrealistic to build the Three Gorges Dam, Xiaolangdi Reservoir, Hongqi Canal, etc. in this era. Even the most advanced fleet operations in the world cannot be realized in a short time.

However, with such a huge fleet, it is impossible to save all the dry fields by digging canals on the plains and diverting some common water systems to irrigate the counties. It is still possible to save tens of thousands of acres in one government.

As far as Dengfeng Mansion is concerned, there are 56 mu of arable land in later generations. Mr. Zhao acquired a total of [-] to [-] mu in more than a month, some of which were registered under the names of warlords and officials, and some were new fields reclaimed by the Construction Corps.
