Suddenly, a familiar feeling of drowning came over him, and Dong Shuheng woke up, surrounded by a dark bedroom.
"Did I travel through time again?"
He touched the bedside and found that his lighter was still there. He flipped open the lid with one finger and lightly moved the gear with his thumb. With a "pop" sound, a smell of kerosene spread out. He looked around and looked around the room.
Unchanged.
"Huh!" He breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't wear it quickly.
This was indeed a dream. He remembered that in the dream, he was standing on the embankment of the Yellow River, looking at the turbulent and turbid water of the Yellow River. A gap quickly expanded around him. After a while, the entire embankment burst and the floods flooded.
, submerged farmland and villages, people were struggling in the flood, and the washed-up pigs, cattle and sheep were screaming hysterically in the water. He saw a little girl being washed past him by the current.
Subconsciously, he reached out to grab it, and then he fell into the water again. Fortunately, he didn't cross over this time. With a feeling of suffocation, he woke up from his dream.
He was sitting on the bed. The candle beside the bed was lit. Under the dim candlelight, Dong Shuheng's face was pale and his shirt was wet with sweat.
"Why did I come to this era?" Dong Shuheng asked himself in his heart. He traveled through time to save people, so naturally he came here to save people.
100 years is too long. Why must the lovely Chinese people endure this 100 years of suffering?
Tonight's dream reminded him of something that was about to happen.
…
Early the next morning, Dong Shuheng called for the Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Purchasing of the Huaihai Group. Naturally, Mr. Liu came with him. Now that Dong Shuheng is in Gaoyou, the company's headquarters is temporarily located here. Anyway, the Huaihai Group's
The model is planned and reviewed by the head office, and the subsidiaries are responsible for executing specific affairs.
"Uncle, how is the reclamation situation of the Agricultural Reclamation Company recently?"
Chen Dongsheng replied: "Currently we have about 20 farms. In addition, we have established two labor reform farms for the 4,000 prisoners you sent last time. These 22 farms have completed the construction of water conservancy facilities and have grown crops.
Crops have been harvested, but they are mainly some coarse grains and soil-improving alfalfa and soybeans. This year’s yield will not be very high, basically just enough for farm workers to eat themselves. In addition, there are nearly 50 farms under planning recently, but
Now we don't have enough manpower. Based on 2,000 people per farm, we need at least 100,000 people. However, recently, we have encountered some troubles. Some local landowners in Dongtai have occupied the farm's reclaimed land, and some people are grabbing our crops.
.”
"Humph, I'm so brave. Please compile a list of these landowners and report it to me. In addition, you don't have to worry about the cost of resettling the refugees. You will be given as much resettlement fee as you need."
"Uncle Liu, how much money is left in the account?" Dong Shuheng asked Liu Mingyuan beside him.
"There are still more than 700,000 taels. The company's business capital is in the initial stage and has not yet reached the payback period. If you hadn't continued to inject funds, young master, the company's capital chain would have been broken."
"Uncle Liu, I said you don't have to worry about funds. Just spend all the money. When our company makes a large profit next year, you will regret why you didn't spend more money and buy more machines now.
Recently, Yangtze Company will place a large order with Huaihai Machinery Manufacturing Factory. You need to ask them to expand production capacity in advance. With this order, Huaihai will be able to withdraw a large amount of funds."
"Minister Han, you have to do everything you can to buy 1 million taels of grain recently, and try to get more coarse grains, otherwise it will not be enough. Starting this autumn, we may have to feed more than 1 million mouths!" Dong Shuheng said to Han, the Minister of Purchasing Department.
Yun said.
"Shuheng, is something big going to happen?" Liu Mingyuan asked in shock. He was frightened by the number Dong Shuheng said.
"A large ditch will be excavated in northern Jiangsu after today's autumn. In addition, Fanggong Embankment will also be rebuilt, which will require a lot of river work." Dong Shuheng couldn't tell the dream directly, it would be too scary.
"In addition, Minister Chen, your side is rushing to plant corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes this summer. In addition, our farm will also send technicians to nearby villages to guide them, especially those farmers who have just changed from Zao households. Sign the contract with them directly.
The acquisition agreement allows them to plant according to our requirements and accept the guidance of our technical staff."
"Also, Minister Han, try to buy food from Britain and France and let them ship it from their colonies. Otherwise, our large order will increase domestic food prices and many people will go hungry.
Didn’t we build granaries on every farm? Anyway, they are empty now, so they can be used to store the purchased grains. As much as can be stored, 1 million taels is not enough, I will give you more!"
"Don't worry, Chairman, I will definitely buy the most food with the least money." Han Yun promised.
After sending the three people away, Dong Shuheng sat back in his seat and rubbed his temples vigorously. Things were too messy and he was becoming increasingly busy.
Thinking of what his uncle had just mentioned, he asked someone to call Ji Mingshan. Some people just cared about food but not fighting. On his way forward, this small group of people who stood in the way must be cleared away.
Ji Mingshan's Information Department has now been transferred to the Intelligence Department under the Governor's Office, and Lao Ji is now an official figure.
"See you, Mr. President!" Ji Mingshan imitated others and called Qian.
"Okay, what you learned is neither fish nor fowl. You go to my uncle, Minister Chen, to learn about the landlords' occupation of farm fields. Find out the backgrounds of these people, and then contact Captain Ai of the special team. He will know how to deal with it. Also
Regarding the batch of goods shipped from Yangzhou City, you ask the person who is following up on this matter to report to the Navy and report the specific situation to Commander Liu."
Xiao Ai and Xiao Lou now have very few opportunities to appear on screen. On the one hand, Dong Shuheng must deliberately maintain their mystery so that they can deal with some things that are inconvenient for the army; on the other hand, their training tasks are also very heavy. Dong Shuheng
However, we have formulated a very strict training plan for them, and recently the special operations team has recruited many martial arts masters, so the training must keep up.
"Hello, President!" Xiao Lou and Xiao Ai saluted Dong Shuheng with a military salute.
"Okay, you're welcome. You have worked hard during this period. After a while, the number of people will be almost the same. I will upgrade your special operations team to a regiment-level unit and become a special operations brigade. There are two tasks during this period. Xiao Ai will cooperate.
Ji Mingshan is dealing with the affairs of the landlords around the farm. My request is that if anyone offends me, I will kill him. Xiao Lou will accompany me to Yangzhou to do a business."
In mid-May, salt bandits were raging in northern Jiangsu, and 10 landlords in Dongtai were massacred within a week. Admiral Dong Shuheng was furious and ordered Chief of General Staff Liu Qingnan to lead 5,000 troops (mainly new recruits), which was regarded as a training exercise
) went to annihilate them. Later, they found out that Zhang, a salt road inspector, had colluded with the salt bandits. Admiral Dong wanted to arrest him, but Inspector Zhang got entangled with several soldiers to resist arrest, and he was killed. For a while, the whole northern Jiangsu was silent.
Dong Shuheng suddenly felt extremely pure. This time, Xiao Ai destroyed several houses and confiscated 2 million taels of silver and confiscated 120,000 acres of mature farmland. Dong Shuheng found that he gradually fell in love with confiscating homes.
Dong Shuheng had already arrived on the navy's flagship Yangzhou. The bright moon was in the sky, shining on the windy and rough river, reflecting a dim yellow light. Dong Shuheng and his party of ten ships were sailing on the river, and their destination was Guazhou upstream.
town.
Guazhou Town is in the south of Yangzhou City and is a transfer station between Yangzhou and Nanjing. Tonight, there is an escort team stationed here, but they are escorting not only gold and silver but also 1,000 young girls. The person in charge of this escort is Yangzhou
The Taiping Army wanted a deputy general named Lin Wang. This man was Zeng Lichang's confidant. He fought bravely and was not afraid of death. Countless Qing troops died in his hands.
In order to prevent being discovered, the Huaihai Navy stopped the boat on the riverside five kilometers away from the town. They used small boats to transport more than 100 special forces members and 500 soldiers from the training camp ashore. Dong Shuheng did not go ashore, so he waited for news on the boat.
Since he came to this era, he has seldom charged into battle during wars. Firstly, he is afraid of death, and secondly, there is no need. He usually only participates in the formulation of plans.
The general plan tonight is for his team to take down the camp guards and let the teaching camp in. Then the special forces team will rescue and protect the 1,000 women to prevent the Taiping Army from jumping over the wall.
The Taiping soldiers in the camp were dealt with by the officers and soldiers of the training camp. Since this battle required close combat, Dong Shuheng provided double grenades for each soldier. He also urgently distributed the 100 shotguns that had just arrived.
This way each squad can be equipped with two shotguns.
The key to this battle is to open the camp gate without alerting the defenders.
In the Taiping Army Camp in Guazhou Town, Lin Wang was lying naked on a queen-size bed. Four girls around him were also naked, and they were wrapped around Lin Wang like octopuses. Even though Lin Wang was strong and energetic,
The four ladies of Ye Yu were also very tired. At this time, he seemed to have purged all the worries in his body and fell into a deep sleep.
It was exactly three or four o'clock in the morning. At this time, the second shift of Taiping soldiers on duty had been standing guard for three hours. It was the most sleepy time. Beside the camp gate, a Taiping soldier on duty saw his companion leaning against him.
He was dozing off against the pillar, but he felt sleepy and yawned loudly.
At this moment, a big hand grabbed his open mouth and cut his throat with a pop. His companion was better than him and was killed in his sleep.
There was no Qing army activity in Guazhou Town, and it was regarded as the rear of the Taiping Army. The Jiangbei camp did not dare to cross Yangzhou City and go south. In normal times, the south gate of Yangzhou City could be opened normally. Because of this, I served as a guard this time.
Only the Taiping Army dared to be so lax in their mission.
The special forces team moved to the camp where the girls were detained and quickly took over the place. The girls who were locked up in the big tent didn't even know it.
At this time, the teaching camp filed in, and they quickly rushed to each Taiping Army camp in squad units.
"Dong dong dong..." A gong sounded. The large troops came in and finally woke up the Taiping Army. Under the scolding of their respective group leaders, they rushed to their weapons in a hurry, and they didn't even have time to put on their clothes.
"Bang bang bang..." Continuous grenade explosions sounded. Fire broke out in each tent, and then only wailing sounds were heard.
Lin Wang pushed the woman on top of him away, put on a piece of underwear, picked up his saber, and rushed out of the tent. Just as he was about to call the soldiers to come closer to him, he saw a man wearing colorful clothes.
The soldier pointed a thick-barreled firecracker at himself, without taking aim, and just "bang bang bang..." and fired five shots in a row. Each shot made Lin Wang's body bounce back a certain distance. Countless steel balls were fired.
Embedded in his body. His muscular body was covered with blood holes, and the darkness swallowed him...
…
The sneak attack ended quickly. The fighting will of the Taiping Army was not comparable to that of the water bandits. More than a dozen soldiers from the training camp were injured by bows and arrows. Even in the end, the Taiping Army team launched a counterattack, but the result was of course a defeat.
Under the fierce firepower of the training camp.
Under the attack of the navy and the teaching camp, the water village was quickly captured.
More than 1,000 young girls who were so frightened that they couldn't believe that these soldiers in colorful military uniforms were unwilling to board the ship and follow Dong Shuheng and others. This made Dong Shuheng very angry. He left the battleship and came to the camp in person
.
"Everyone, I am Jiangbei Admiral Dong Shuheng. I will ensure your safety. Please transfer to Gaoyou first. When Yangzhou is recovered in the future, I will naturally let you go home."
Perhaps it was Dong Shuheng's handsomeness or his high official position. The girls gradually felt relieved and boarded the boat under the guidance of the soldiers.
These women lined up and passed by Dong Shuheng. It was dark at this time, and Dong Shuheng had no intention of looking at them. He just felt that they all looked similar.
Cai Shusen, Zhang Dabiao and the brothers from the security squad were guarding Dong Shuheng, but their eyes occasionally glanced at the girls in the team.
This is what a group of singles should look like...
No one thought much about it. It is easy for people to relax their guard when facing a group of women.
