Chapter 314 Viewing the Ceremony

Although Luo Shengdong did not know the inside story of the interactions between the Cliff Garrison Office and the Guard Army Zhang Qianhu, his inference was quite accurate. Compared with the Shuizhai garrison, which had relatively "strict" military disciplines, it was early

The situation of desertion of the Guards Army, which has already collapsed in military system, has been so serious in recent times that Zhang Qianhu had to go to the Cliff Garrison Office to ask for an explanation. However, Maliko, who was the director of the Cliff Garrison Office at the time, cleverly

Seizing this opportunity, he tried his best to encourage Zhang Qianhu to open his mouth and let the Haihan militia enter Yacheng to fill the vacancies in the guard army.

Although Zhang Qianhu also knew that the nature of this matter was very serious, he had already taken many benefits from Haihan and could not speak forcefully. Secondly, the shortfall in the guard army was too large and he did not try to make up for it.

There is no way to hand over military power to the successor here. In the past, perhaps we could recruit some idle people from around Yacheng to temporarily fill the scene. Anyway, the next Qianhu will have to live on empty salary after taking office, as long as the handover can be handled.

That's fine, but now there are not many idle people to recruit in Yacheng. Even the long-term workers in many fields outside the city have gone to Shengli Port to work for the Haihan people. It is impossible to go to Yazhou Water Village to ask Luo Shengdong to borrow money.

Let’s count people.

After much grinding and grinding, Zhang Qianhu finally lost his moral integrity and agreed to the plan of sending people from the Haihan Militia to temporarily fill the vacant garrison positions at Yacheng Guard Station. Of course,

How long this "temporary" will last, and whether these people can be allowed to leave Yacheng in the future, is not something that Zhang Qianhu, who is about to retire, can decide - I will take the money, and the next person will take the blame.

The Yacheng Guards Army has an establishment of more than 1,100 people. Currently, there are only a little over 600 on staff, and the vacancies are almost half. Such a large vacancy actually makes the military feel that there is not enough militia to fill it. After all, the current militia army

The number of troops was not very large. To fill up the garrison, at least half of the garrison in Victory Port would be enough. This obviously did not comply with the military's troop deployment plan. Considering the actual combat effectiveness of the garrison, the military finally decided

Send a company of troops to Yacheng - basically this force is enough to control the situation in Yacheng, not to mention that there are also some sailors from the militia stationed in the water village outside Yacheng.

In terms of organization, whether it is the Yacheng Guards Army or the navy, it will take a long time to completely replace them. The Haihan Militia will not be able to organize so many troops to station in Yacheng in the short term.

What's more, the resources in Yacheng have been exhausted, and it is indeed not worth garrisoning a large number of troops. Now the Executive Committee is trying every means to evacuate the local military and political system. The main purpose is to control the local situation and use official power as much as possible to suppress possible threats in Sanya.

Opposition that emerged during development.

As long as the state capital of Yacheng can be controlled, it can be said that the entire southern coastal zone of Hainan Island has initially fallen into the control of the Chuanchuan Group. Only with the cover of the official skin can the executive committee let go of its hands and feet to control Sanya.

and nearby areas began to be developed on a large scale. Although the two sons-in-law in Yacheng officialdom did not know the details of the executive committee's long-term plan, based on what they knew now, they could have expected what these Haihan people would do.

The picture shows more than just this corner of Port Victory.

But I know that they are unable to change the current trend of social change. With the current situation in Yacheng, they don't even have the capital to break up with the Haihan people. They can only watch the Haihan people expand their territory day by day.

Magistrate Zhang Tong sighed and said: "Now that things have happened, if you and I, our husband-in-law, want to leave Yazhou, the only way is to rely on promotion. It's just that I just took over the post of magistrate this year. If you want to get promotion again, it won't be one or two."

It’s something that can be accomplished within a year.”

Seeing that his father-in-law had solved the knot, Luo Shengdong comforted him and said, "Father-in-law, don't worry about this. Mr. Tao once told my son-in-law that as long as he can cooperate well with them during his term of office, he will try his best to provide convenience and help my son-in-law."

My son-in-law will be promoted as soon as possible. With my son-in-law stationed in Yacheng, even if something happens, my father-in-law can rest assured that he can be entrusted to his son-in-law to deal with it."

Zhang Tongpan said: "Having said that, the expansion speed of the Haihan people is so amazing. They can operate to the current scale in one year. If they are given three or four years... who knows how many lawless things they can do.

!”

"What my father-in-law said is wrong!" Luo Shengdong retorted in a rare way: "The Haihan people are more meticulous and strict in their laws, even more so than our Ming Dynasty. In terms of public security in Shengli Port, it is actually far better than Yacheng. Wait.

When I have free time tomorrow, my son-in-law will take his father-in-law around here to get a feel for the local people."

"How can I not see the ability of the Haihan people to govern the world? It's just that these people have no government in their sights and no court in their hearts. They will cause chaos sooner or later!" Zhang Tongpan sighed helplessly.

At the reception banquet that night, Zhang Tongsuan and Wang Tongzhi, who were the official representatives of Yazhou, also appeared together. Together with Luo Shengdong and Wei Ping, the two assistants, they simply provided the best endorsement for the crossing group. From

Although the wealthy businessmen in the mainland cannot sit at the same table with these adults, no one is dissatisfied because of this. On the contrary, they are more convinced of the strength of the Haihan people - what they know is that the Haihan people are trying to "Qionglian"

With the establishment of the "Fa", local senior officials were specially invited to Shengli Port to prove their control over the Yazhou area.

In this way, the very few shareholders who had doubts were finally relieved. After all, this kind of scene where officials come forward to help businessmen is extremely rare in the mainland. I saw several Haihan leaders and Yazhou

Senior officials sat at the same table and chatted and laughed, which was enough for shareholders to have more beautiful visions for the future of "Qiong Lianfa".

April 4th finally ushered in the highlight of this anniversary celebration, which was also a program specially prepared for foreign guests to watch the ceremony, including the large-scale military parade of the Haihan Militia and the amphibious warfare exercise.

When the militia soldiers wearing gray cloth military uniforms and carrying flintlock rifles marched in phalanx along the Port Landscape Avenue towards Fort Victory, the local people who had already participated in the military parade were desperately applauding and cheering to express their feelings.

The excitement. Some outsiders who saw this scene for the first time were surprised and began to re-examine the strength of the Haihan people.

In addition to Yazhou officials and mainland business groups, the guests standing on the gate of Fort Victory also attended this rare and grand event in disguise.

Looking at the groups of militia soldiers and the equipment they used, both Zheng Zha and Zheng Ting felt that their previous understanding of the strength of the Haihan people seemed not comprehensive enough. Especially since they had received military training from the Haihan people and had fought hand in hand with the Haihan militia.

After experiencing it, Zheng Ting realized at this time that the military record of the Haihan Militia was far stronger than that of the North Vietnamese Army. These details that were ignored on the battlefield are now being re-amplified through the process of marching in formation.

After the infantry phalanx, there are also the newly established sailor phalanx, the reserve militia phalanx carrying standard spears, the security police phalanx in black attire and rattan helmets, and the artillery phalanx that uses ox carts to drag artillery. Although they are sparse,

But the cavalry team, which is rare in Yazhou, even has a small review team composed of representatives from the overseas Black Tu Port security forces.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is not the indigenous troops in front, but Commander Haihan’s phalanx, which appears last and gets the loudest cheers. There are not many people in this phalanx, and they are thirty-six former soldiers selected by the Military Commission.

A team composed of members of the police department. This phalanx is personally led by Yan Chujie, the current military leader. All thirty-six people are now serving as commanders and combatants at all levels in the Haihan Militia, and all members have participated in two

The series of battles that took place in Annan many months ago can be said to be the elite of the military and the backbone of force within the group.

What is different from the previous parade formation is that the clothing and equipment of this team are not so uniform. Although the preparatory committee originally purchased uniform camouflage combat uniforms, these guys who have had military experience are almost

Everyone has purchased more advanced combat clothing. The camouflage uniforms alone include mountain camouflage, desert camouflage, ocean camouflage, urban camouflage, jungle camouflage, snow camouflage, etc. There are also various types of combat boots, from the 3515 factory

There are all kinds of strongman military boots produced by various foreign brands, and it is almost impossible to find a few pairs that are the same. And the carrying vehicles and helmets on the body are also in a wide variety of styles. For example, the North American gang of Aixin has a variety of accessories hanging on the outside of the tactical vest.

A variety of weapons and equipment, and a night vision goggle is installed on the helmet. The whole thing is an American model armed to the teeth.

As for the weapons used by everyone, they all chose the weapons they are used to. For example, Wang Tom usually used the long and short combination of HK416 and MK23. Sniper Old Morgan carried his weapon as usual.

The extremely valuable M200 sniper rifle. Most of the soldiers who came from China before crossing over chose more traditional weapons such as the Bayi Bar. Although the military has very few in stock, it is enough to equip the troops being reviewed.

. As for the 56 semi-automatic, which was purchased in bulk as an armed common traversal before the time travel, it was not displayed in today's military parade.

When such a chaotic and motley army came out, the cheers and applause of most local people slowly stopped. They had no idea how such a phalanx could join today's occasion.

The people who came to watch the parade started making loud noises to cheer for this armed force that truly belonged to the group. Of course, the purpose of forming this square to participate in the military parade was not to show the guests.

Rather, it is purely a program for our own internal staff.

Several guests who were invited to watch the ceremony on the gate tower of Victory Fort had different moods at this time. The two representatives of the North Vietnamese mission had mixed feelings. What they were happy about was that the armed forces of the Haihan people were so powerful and they were equipped with more weapons than them.

Selling to Thang Long Province is more advanced, which shows that the capabilities of the Hai Han people in weapons manufacturing are far from being fully revealed. As their partner, North Vietnam, after receiving a steady supply of weapons from Hai Han, then attacked South Vietnam.

The chance of winning the battle will also be greater.

As for worries, it is because they are afraid of Hai Han's super armed strength. The Hai Han people have currently established three strongholds in North Vietnam: the northern Black Earth Port, the central Tushan Port and the southern Yong'an Port. Although Hai Han is in these three places

The total number of personnel and laborers deployed was less than 10,000, but insightful people in the North Vietnamese Army have realized that just these three places have almost locked up the entire coastline of North Vietnam. And North Vietnam's shipping level is already

Far inferior to Hai Han. If this momentum continues, it is only a matter of time before the Hai Han people control the shipping industry in North Vietnam. The gap in force and dependence on equipment make it impossible for the North Vietnamese regime to adopt a tougher attitude.

Negotiate with the Haihan people regarding the sovereignty of three strongholds.

After Zheng Zha's visit this time, he took the initiative to ask the Cross-Train Group to provide shipbuilding technology, partly because of concerns about sea control. Although Zheng Zha's request was finally recognized by the Haihan Executive Committee, this huge

Its technical disadvantages cannot be undone in a short time, and its initiative will remain in the hands of the Hai Han Executive Committee for a long time, which will inevitably cause great passivity to the North Vietnamese regime.

It was such a contradictory mentality that made the North Vietnamese representatives feel envious and jealous after seeing the Hai Han militia, but also inevitably gave birth to more fear and fear - this was almost the reaction expected by the Executive Committee.

Most of the people in the Mainland Business Group are military laymen, just watching the excitement, but there are some knowledgeable people among them. It can be seen that the equipment level of the Haihan Militia has far exceeded that of the Ming Dynasty's army. It was only the artillery troops that dragged it out.

Those dozen or so cannons are probably more than the cannons equipped by the entire Qiongzhou Island army combined. As for whether the Haihan militia's equipment is so exaggerated, it will conflict with the local Ming dynasty armed forces, but there is no one

The businessman is worried - the future governor of Yazhou and the commander of the naval army are sitting here, so what else is there to worry about?

One issue that the wealthy businessmen of "Qiong Lianfa" were generally worried about at the beginning was whether the company's investment projects on Qiongzhou Island could be effectively guaranteed in terms of safety. After all, Qiongzhou Island is high in the mountains and far away from the emperor, and the government's armed forces are relatively weak.

In addition to being invaded by pirates all the year round, the Li and Miao tribes also caused trouble and rebellion from time to time. Moreover, the place where the Haihan people settled was in Yazhou, the southernmost place. For most Ming people, it was already a place at the end of the world. If it really happened there,

What happened? These investors in the mainland are calling the sky and the earth for help.

When the General Office of the People's Republic of China interviewed these shareholders, Schneider also made a promise to them, claiming that Haihan "has a strong armed force" that can guarantee the development project of "Qiong Lianfa" on Qiongzhou Island. At that time, in addition to Haihan,

Apart from the few businessmen who have no doubt about the strength of the Han people, there are indeed many people who are dubious about this and even rejected Schneider's invitation to invest. However, those who finally chose to believe in Schneider now feel that their original choice was extremely wise.

——The Haihan Militia seems to be more reliable than the Ming Guard Army. What Schneider said at the beginning was not an empty promise!

The Yazhou official delegation, who was in the middle and occupied the best position, had an equally complicated psychology at this time. On the one hand, they once again confirmed that the armed forces of the Haihan people were indeed as powerful as the rumors, and on the other hand, they also

I feel a little desperate about the influence prospects of Yacheng. The rapid rise of the Haihan people in Shengli Port was accompanied by the gradual decline of Yacheng. As the official supervisor of Yazhou, Yazhou Yamen’s influence in the areas controlled by Haihan

The influence has dropped to the lowest point in history - except for the Maritime Business Inspection Group, who are relatively awe-inspiring, the local people seem to have an attitude of indifference and indifference towards the arrival of the parents. Zhang Tongpan is completely

From the attitudes of these people, we can feel their admiration and awe for Haihan, and their increasingly low sense of identification with the Yacheng government.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, how do you think our militia group is training? Can we still catch the eyes of these two adults?" Tao Donglai raised his hand to wave to the militia square that was passing in front of the gatehouse, and turned his head to

Zhang Tongpan and Wang Tongzhi asked.

Wang Tongzhi twirled his beard and said: "I think our Yazhou has never had such a majestic militia in hundreds of years. With the Haihan militia stationed here, I believe that from now on, Yazhou will be safe and there will be no need for Haihan militia."

Worry about incoming invaders."

As expected, Wang Tongzhi was retiring soon and was under less pressure. After receiving the money, he acted very hard, and he was unscrupulous in promoting Haihan. Although Zhang Tongpan felt a little disdainful, in this situation, he

It is impossible to openly oppose the Haihan people, so we can only follow Wang Tongzhi's meaning and say: "What Mr. Wang said is true. I see that the Haihan militia is so powerful that it must be extremely powerful!"

"So we have also prepared the next program to let the two adults take a look at the actual combat effectiveness of our militia. Please move forward." Tao Donglai made a gesture of invitation.

The exercise venue for the next amphibious military exercise is not far from Fort Victory, right at the mouth of the Tiandu River. However, in order to have a better viewing effect, the executive committee specially arranged an excellent stand for the guests attending the ceremony——

The "New World" ro-roller docked on the bank of Tiandu River.

Although almost everyone who came to Victory Port had seen this giant steel ship parked on the shore, only very few people were actually lucky enough to board this ship. There were also many curious merchants who applied to the executive committee.

, but most people's applications to board the ship were rejected in the name of "security issues." Being able to board such a huge steel ship is a unique life experience for these guests. There are many

After people boarded the ship, they couldn't help but knock it here and there with their hands, trying to confirm that the entire ship was really made of steel.
