Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Su Bai's judgment was not complicated. The small warlords and remnants of warlords across the country have always been a scourge to the people. Even after the national and provincial governments incorporated them, a considerable number of warlords still refused to change their evil ways.

Take the Seventh Temporary Army of the Kong brothers for example. First, Kong Chen privately kidnapped government officials to show off his power, then Yang Huasen's troops mutinied, and then Kong Li killed innocent people in the name of the county government.

The reduction of the 7th Temporary Army to the 7th Temporary Division and then to the Longxing Security Division should be attributed to the moderate factions within the national and provincial governments, who adopted a relatively moderate external attitude.

But it was different for the hardliners in the national and provincial governments. Although they failed to charge Kong Li with serious crimes as they wished, the evil deeds done by the Kong brothers could not be erased from their hearts.

Just at this time, Marshal Yang killed the political instructor of the Military Control Commission’s stationed troops, and took this opportunity to solve the problem once and for all.

The method was simple. He took advantage of the fact that the Kong brothers and Marshal Yang had been enemies for many years and ordered the elimination of Marshal Yang.

The combat team belonged to Kong Li. The two divisions sent by the provincial government and the reinforced regiment of the Central Army were all reserve troops to deal with unexpected events. They were only responsible for waving flags and shouting slogans, not for charging into battle.

If Kong Li succeeds in eliminating Marshal Yang, his strength will certainly be greatly damaged. At that time, awards and medals will be just empty honors. Without strength, he will naturally be honest.

If Kong Li fails to eliminate Marshal Yang, or does not put in enough effort, or even has a tacit understanding with Marshal Yang, the two divisions of the provincial government and the reinforced regiment of the Central Army should take action to destroy them all together.

After listening to Su Bai's analysis, Kong Dai nodded repeatedly. He also guessed so. He heard that before the war, the provincial government also supplemented Kong Li's security division with some heavy equipment so that they could fight as the main force.

Kong Dai's analysis was that Kong Li had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight Marshal Yang, knowing that this was a strategy that would kill two birds with one stone for the national and provincial governments.

If you disobey orders, you will die. But if you risk everything to win this battle, you will not only survive, but also live the rest of your life in peace.

As for the military power, Kong Li should have thought it through clearly. If he lost half of his troops after this battle, he would become a fly that could be swatted to death at any time.

In the future, just obey orders obediently. In fact, it is a good ending. Almost all of the Kong family’s property has gone into the hands of Kong Chen and Kong Li, so there is enough money for them.

"Do you think Kong Li will be able to live this kind of life peacefully?" Su Bai felt that this might not be a good thing. As long as the government did not completely deprive Kong Li of his military power, even if he only had a few hundred people left after this battle, they would not let him go because of the batch of gold bars.

Unexpectedly, Kong Dai said something intriguing: "It depends on whether he can live such a peaceful life."

Yang Huasen wanted to kill Kong Chen and Kong Li. Even though he suffered heavy losses last time, he still had several hundred people. Although he could not fight a big battle, he was still capable of launching a surprise attack or a sneak attack.

Liu Yiyan wants to kill Kong Chen. Although Liu Yiyan has no strength, his style of doing things is more like a thief. He will not let Kong Chen go, and he will probably not be polite to Kong Li either.

If Kong Li really ends up with a tragic victory in this battle, and then he is asked to defend the entire Sanlong area, the troops will not be able to withstand the dispersed deployment. At that time, Yang Huasen and Liu Yimiao will have more opportunities.

If they are determined to kill Kong Chen and Kong Li at all costs, I will find a way to help them.

Su Bai, who has always insisted on not getting involved in the struggles between the parties, has unknowingly entered the game.

This was a last resort, forced by the brothers Kong Chen and Kong Li.

If he got rid of these two guys, Su Bai would be like having a huge mountain of pressure lifted off his shoulders.

Let's wait for the right time.

Su Bai told Kong Dai that a lot of goods were brought back from Shanghai this time, and they would be transported to Linhua first. For safety reasons, they would be transported to the inn where he stayed when he came back from Qingdao last time, and then transported back to the backyard of Li's house in batches.

"The war is going on now, Lin Hua won't be in danger, right?" Su Bai asked.

Kong Dai assured Su Bai not to worry. Not to mention Linhua, even Tianlong County, which was closest to the front line, was safe. Marshal Yang was now being surrounded and attacked. He had no strength to counterattack. The war would not spread to Tianlong, let alone Linhua.

"How much money is left at home?" Su Bai asked again.

"There are still more than 300 yuan."

"Well, this is all the money we have left. We have to be frugal these days."

Kong Dai was shocked: "Madam, dozens of gold bars are..." Kong Dai did not ask further, and nodded: "Okay, we are all from poor families and can endure hardships. If we save money, these 300 yuan will be enough for a few months!"

Kong Dai was talking about food, drink and some simple daily expenses, which was of course no problem, but Su Bai still had one thing to do, which was to set up a trading company.

A business that serves as a cover for itself needs a shop and a warehouse, which both cost money.

Let's wait until the goods return to Longxing. Whether we can have the money depends on the medication situation of Doctor Chen.

The most important thing now is to produce the fourth batch of drugs. Because he took Zi Yan to Shanghai for half a month, Niu Yanzi led the team to complete the fermentation and cultivation of the mold and basically stopped working.

Moreover, not only the fourth batch, but also the fifth and sixth batches of drugs have reached this step.

After about seven or eight days, I can produce three batches of medicine in succession.

After that, we can enter normal production with a batch every five days. However, as long as the new equipment arrives, the output will increase significantly. Starting from the seventh batch of medicine, the amount of mold culture will be expanded.

He came back at around three o'clock, chatted with everyone first, and then talked to Kong Dai. He still had to work today. After Kong Dai left, Su Bai planned to lie on the bed and sleep for a while, but he fell asleep and it was already time for lunch.

Kong Dai acted very quickly. He had just told him to save money in the morning, and he started eating vegetarian food for lunch.

He specially fried two eggs for Su Bai, saying that the young lady was not only physically tired but also mentally tired. Everyone could eat vegetarian food, but the young lady had to be special.

He also told everyone that since ancient times, there has been no rule for masters and servants to eat from the same pot: "This is the young mistress's. If the young mistress doesn't want to eat it, she will give it to you. No one else is allowed to eat it!"

Zi Yan rolled her eyes at him: "As if you are the only one who understands how to feel sorry for the young mistress."

Since the separation from the Kong Mansion, although Kong Dai was still entrusted by Su Bai with the position of chief steward, he no longer had the prestige of the Kong Mansion's chief steward. When they were together, they were more like brothers and sisters.

Of course, everyone respected Kong Dai as their elder, and slowly, Kong Dai got used to this new relationship. Others would be naughty with him or even talk back to him occasionally, but he would no longer fly into a rage like before.

Gao Hu went to the front yard early this morning and stayed there to eat with his soldiers at noon.

Before Su Bai finished his meal, Gao Hu came running back.

He told Su Bai that Military Doctor Chen had sent a message through someone.

Su Bai immediately said to Kong Dai, "Uncle Kong, continue frying eggs, three per person!"

This money came as soon as it was promised.
