Chapter 4 Emergency Rescue (Part 1)
There was nothing to say all night, and Chen Hao woke up before dawn the next day. He could not help but feel sad when he thought of his parents and relatives. If they knew that they had come to the late Qing Dynasty and became a rich man in just one day, I don’t know what kind of expression they would have.
The men in the camp have all killed people and seen blood. Nearly half of them are literate, found a place to stabilize, taught them future combat skills and tactics, and broadened their horizons. These people are the solid foundation for their future conquest!
In this era, everything is empty, and only strength is the most important thing. Technology and industry are no longer possible. Only by using patriotic ideas to unite the Chinese around you and build a strong army beyond the times can we quickly gain a foothold in Nanyang, have the opportunity to develop ourselves, and realize our dream of building China into the world's largest power!
Now I have some funds in my hands, and it is more than enough to buy conventional weapons and build a small naval fleet, but it is difficult to vigorously develop the navy. Moreover, the cultivation of naval talents takes at least several years to accumulate. I have no conditions and energy to develop the navy. Without a strong navy, I will be limited to an isolated island and difficult to expand outward. Therefore, I must use my extraordinary tactical ideas and formulate a huge plan to deal with warships now, which will achieve the greatest success at the lowest cost!
Britain launched two Opium Wars. The large-scale import of opium not only made the Chinese people's already fragile body weaker, but also plundered a lot of wealth. In order to cover up and rob a large number of cultural relics from the Old Summer Palace, it also burned the Old Summer Palace. These things have always made me feel uneasy. Therefore, with a stable base, I must plant a large amount of poppy and make high-purity heroin, so that this high-end product can harm these robber countries and double the wealth they plundered.
Borneo is its primary development goal. It is a typical tropical rainforest climate, with an average annual temperature of about 26 degrees. There is no four seasons. The grain output is extremely high. Taking it down to manage the land in a unified manner, and the grain output will be greatly improved. If you have food in your hands, you will not panic. With this food, you will gain great reputation in the future. When you return to the country, you will get the greatest support. In addition, you will also need to plant a large amount of rubber and store this strategic material with a very long planting cycle early. In the future, you will have to ensure that you develop a mechanized force. Of course, two years later, you cannot miss the big meal of rubber hype around the world. This is the best time to make a fortune.
Thinking of this, the sky was already lit up slightly, and there were slight footsteps outside. I slowly got up and walked out of the tent. I saw Luo Jun, Song Sicheng, Xia Xingyu and others sitting outside their tent waiting, and the others were also sitting quietly on the ground to rest, waiting for themselves to come out.
Seeing Chen Hao come out, everyone stood up and saluted him silently. Of course, more than ten children, five women and three seriously injured were resting in another tent, and they did not have such good resilience.
Xia Xingyu handed it over with a clean wet towel. Chen Hao took it and just wiped his face. Xia Xingyu handed over two more fruits and dry food. Chen Hao couldn't help but think with a bad taste: Such a handsome young man, so careful and thoughtful. If he was a man who likes men's style, he wouldn't know whether he should escape, hehe!
After breakfast, Chen Hao said to Luo Jun, "Let everyone gather together, I have something to say." As he said that, he stood on a big stone, waiting for everyone to gather together.
After the people arrived, Chen Hao moistened his voice and began to mobilize political ideas before the start of the thrust. He said loudly: "Comrades, brothers, you have suffered so many years! But do you know why you have suffered so much? The once proud Chinese were sold here to act as the cheapest coolies. The former people of the Supreme People of China swallowed their anger under the double oppression of colonists and the South Asian nobles! Countless Chinese built the Indonesian archipelago and created prosperity here! Countless Chinese people brought civilization and prosperity to this land with thousands of years of hard work! However, the rewards received were killings and expulsions. Do you know why this is?"
Many people are really confused. Why are Chinese so hardworking and kind, but they are abused and massacred in various parts of Southeast Asia? Isn’t the country strong? Chinese are too hardworking and rich? Indonesians are too lazy? Or is it because foreign devils are too greedy and cruel? Some of them have thought about these things to a greater or lesser extent, but some people don’t understand them at all. Now that Chen Hao wants to tell them the answer, they all raised their ears.
"I think the most important thing is that we Chinese do not have a strong country support! The Opium War began to the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, our country was defeated again and again, and forced to sign humiliating treaties again and again! Our great Chinese people are called the sick husbands of East Asia by outsiders! The outside world is changing with each passing day and development is growing thousands of miles away. Our most hardworking and smartest nation in the world is stuck and left behind by others.
The mountains and rivers are broken, the national strength is weak, imperialism is watching the tiger and the national crisis is unprecedentedly serious! This is the real situation of the state dynasty. In this way, how can you Chinese overseas be regarded as a respectable person? How can you be treated fairly? When you are bullied and massacred, how can anyone stand up and speak justice for you?
Because Britain, the United States, France, Russia and Japan and other countries are too powerful in the country and the country are difficult to save the fate of being slaughtered, the country sent me here. There are millions of Chinese people, but no powerful enemies. Without me, you will be a mess and will be strangled by the Dutch and Indonesians. But I promise that under my leadership, the people strangled will become them! In order to change your destiny and save thousands of Chinese compatriots, I will lead you to fight to the death, fight back, build a new and powerful country, and then lead you back to the country and expel the power of the imperialist country in the motherland! Give me a bright world of China! And you will all become national heroes and will be recorded in the history of China!"
Everyone was excited when they heard it, and they were so excited that they all knelt down on the ground with a loud bang, shouting loudly: "I wish to die for the Lord!"
Chen Hao continued: "Today, I will lead you to Qingyuanzhuang 100 miles away to rescue his compatriots who were besieged by more than 3,000 Indonesians. I want you to see that under my leadership, you will become tigers, making their short bodies tremble under your sword! My words are over, and I am ready to set off!"
Walking down the big stone, Chen Hao said to Xia Xingyu: "Since the mountain behind Qingyuanzhuang is difficult to climb, you must hurry over and climb in to report the news while it is dawn. Therefore, you set out now, and I will launch an attack in the middle of the night. Remember, if the Indonesians do not move, don't move. Once there is chaos, you lit a torch and rushed out to kill the enemy! Do you understand?"
Xia Xingyu nodded and replied, "I understand! There is no movement, no movement, light a torch and kill it out!" After saluting, he turned around and ran away.
Chen Hao took out the pocket watch that Song Sicheng gave him when he left last night and looked at it. It was exactly 6 o'clock. Through my understanding in the camp yesterday, Qingyuan Village should be able to hold on for a while. Xia Xingyu's physical strength can travel about 15 miles per hour. It takes about 7 hours for 100 miles. In addition, the time for rest and eating dry food on the road is 8 hours. It is about 2 pm to reach the back mountain of Qingyuan Village, so there will be about 4 hours before dark. It only takes 2 hours to climb the mountain. The time is enough, so you will definitely get the cooperation of the village.
After thinking about it, he said to Luo Jun standing next to him: "Find someone who is smart and capable of adapting me." Luo Jun immediately shouted: "Ye Hui! Come and listen to the instructions of the lord!" Then he said to Chen Hao: "Ye Hui has been to Western Studies, and is the accountant of my family, and he is very capable!"
A gentle and 30-year-old young man came immediately and saluted Chen Hao and said, "Sir, please give me instructions!" Chen Hao said, "I want you to bring 20 strong men and Chen Xiang from Qingyuan Village to escort the children, women and wounded people to Qingyuan Village. Is there any problem?"
Ye Hui was stunned and asked, "Sir, leave 20 people. You only brought more than 30 people to raid more than 3,000 Indonesians outside Qingyuan Village. How can you be enough?"
Chen Hao replied confidently: "Enough! Don't forget that there are brothers in Qingyuan Village to answer! You haven't answered my question yet."
Ye Hui thought for a while and said, "The Indonesians that lord defeated yesterday should be the largest force nearby. Qingyuanzhuang, a hundred miles away, has gathered more than 3,000 people. I believe there should be no large enemies along the way. If I really encounter a large enemy, as long as I, Ye Hui, have not fallen yet, I will protect everyone's safety!"
Chen Hao nodded with satisfaction, patted Ye Hui on the shoulder, and said, "Very good. I heard that you have been to Western Studies and have also taken care of the accounts. After this time, I have a more important task for you to do!"
Ye Hui was shocked and said excitedly: "But as the Lord's orders, even if you go up to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, the villain will be willing to refuse!"
Chen Hao nodded and rushed towards Qingyuanzhuang with more than 30 people including Luo Jun, Song Sicheng, Liu Liang.
