In Hong Kong at the end of June, the sun was so hot that it made people’s skin hot.
On the streets, there are very few pedestrians coming and going.
Outside the governor's residence, in the tea shed, people were sitting and relaxing in the shade.
"I heard that President Lee's troops are preparing to leave Hong Kong and return to Guangdong. Alas, after President Lee leaves, I wonder if Liu Yongfu, who takes over Hong Kong, can suppress the foreigners. If President Lee leaves, the foreigners will stir up chaos again. , then it will be a waste of President Li’s efforts, and we will still be bullied by foreigners."
"Er Niu, what you kid can do, what you can think of, President Li can't think of."
"Ma Ji, don't tell me that President Li only considers national affairs and big issues, and cannot pay attention to small things. In this matter, it is very likely that President Li really did not consider it."
"Only a ghost can believe you. I believe President Li will make the arrangements properly."
"I didn't say I didn't believe President Lee, huh, I'm just worried."
"Worrying blindly."
"Hey, why don't you understand? Forget it. If I don't argue with you, it's boring. It's just playing the piano to an ox."
The two of them were having a great fight, and several tea drinkers around them were happy to watch the excitement. The proprietress of the tea shop was in her forties, a middle-aged lady, and quite charming. She covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Two cows." , I have heard about the things you mentioned. Liu Yongfu has proposed to President Li to scare foreigners, and the news is to leave one person to station in Hong Kong to protect the safety of Hong Kong people."
"Da da,,."
The sound of horse hooves came from far and near at this time.
Several war horses galloped in, like a gust of wind passing by the tea shop, and finally stopped at the Governor's Mansion. The people who came were all wearing military uniforms, military boots, and military caps, with serious expressions, giving people a Feeling resolute, these people got off their horses and walked towards the Governor's Mansion. The leader of this group was Yang Banhou, followed closely by Qi Zhenhai, followed by Liu Jintang, Chen Yucheng, Yang Banhou and Qi Zhenhai. Several brigade commanders under his command.
The people in the tea shop couldn't help but shrink their heads when they saw Qi Zhenhai and others.
Seeing soldiers, the people subconsciously felt a little frightened.
Official residence, in the hall.
Li Zhen sat directly above, and Liu Yongfu sat on the left side of the hall. Yang Banhou, Qi Zhenhai and others came in and saluted Li Zhen together, and then sat down one by one. Li Zhen looked around at all the generals in the hall. He said hastily: "The commanders and envoys of various countries have been captured, and the overall situation in Hong Kong has been decided. I will lead the troops to leave Hong Kong, but in order to ensure the safety of Hong Kong, an army must stay and garrison Hong Kong. The purpose of inviting you here , is the candidate who is being discussed to stay."
Liu Jintang's eyes rolled and he immediately said: "President, I will leave with you. Being stationed here is not suitable for me."
Li Zhen immediately said: "Reason."
Liu Jintang smiled and said: "You know me best. I am reckless and impulsive and do not consider the consequences. If I stay in Hong Kong, once something happens in Hong Kong, it will easily expand the impact and cause turmoil in Hong Kong. You Think about it, Hong Kong has just been taken back from the hands of foreigners, and it needs stability instead of constant turmoil. Therefore, I'd better leave with you to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to Mayor Liu Yongfu."
Turning his gaze to Liu Yongfu, Liu Jintang's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Liu Yongfu's heart skipped a beat, and he said to himself, it's best not to stay with this person. If he really causes trouble, he'll be dead. Liu Yongfu is just a newcomer and has no experience in governing, so he wants to To make a smooth transition, it takes time for him to settle. If Liu Jintang stayed and caused trouble for him every three days, it would undoubtedly give Liu Yongfu a headache, so Liu Yongfu immediately turned to Li Zhen and shook his head repeatedly.
This scene fell into Liu Jintang's eyes. The boy was smiling, and a look of success flashed in his eyes.
Li Zhenxin was as clear as a mirror and nodded without expressing any opinion.
Qi Zhenhai then said: "President, I don't think I'm suitable to stay either."
Li Zhen continued: "Reason."
Qi Zhenhai then replied: "I was originally stationed in Guangzhou and had my own mission in Guangzhou. This time I came to Hong Kong to be recruited by the President to fight with the armies of various countries. If I stayed in Hong Kong, it would mean that Guangzhou would have to work separately. It will be very troublesome for foreigners to take over. In my opinion, although Hong Kong is prone to encounter foreigners from various countries, there will not be too big a problem. After all, the envoys and commanders of various countries are still in our hands, and we are not afraid of foreigners causing chaos. Guangzhou needs me more."
"Well……"
Li Zhen nodded vaguely and frowned.
The two main generals refused after taking the lead, which made Li Zhen feel a little uncomfortable.
Yang Banhou added: "President, I am not suitable to stay either."
This time, Li Zhen was depressed.
The task of staying in Hong Kong is like a ball being kicked around. It seems that Hong Kong is the unlucky star that no one is willing to touch. Li Zhen has only said that one person needs to stay behind, and has not yet talked about the benefits of staying behind. These Guys are quitting one by one. What kind of trouble is this? In Li Zhen’s view, the reasons given by Liu Jintang and Qi Zhenhai are not a problem.
Li Zhen looked at Yang Banhou and asked: "Banhou, what do you have to say?"
Yang Banhou smiled and said: "President, like Master Qi, I have my own place to be stationed, so it's not suitable for me."
Li Zhen looked depressed and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Good guys, all of them were discarded like worn-out shoes, which made Li Zhen depressed.
Li Zhen could not force Qi Zhenhai and others, so he looked at Qi Zhenhai and the brigade commanders under Yang Banhou. When these guys' eyes met Li Zhen's, it was like meeting the god of plague. They quickly avoided it, not daring to Looking directly into Li Zhen's eyes, everyone had a reluctant look on their face, and they lowered their heads slightly. Li Zhen's eyes fell on Chen Yucheng, with a smile on his face, as if seducing Little Red Riding Hood, and said with a smile: "Chen Lu Sir, what do you think of the personnel staying in Hong Kong?"
Chen Yucheng said loudly: "It all depends on the arrangement of the president."
One sentence, sonorous and powerful.
After hearing this, the people around them all showed joy on their faces, and looked at Chen Yucheng with admiration and relief in their eyes.
What I admire is that Chen Yucheng took over the errand of stationing in Hong Kong. Although Hong Kong is quite good under the governance of foreigners, in the end it is just a small place the size of a palm, with little room for exerting its influence, so no one wants to stay. This was the main reason for everyone's refusal. Secondly, with Chen Yucheng staying behind, they didn't have to worry about being sent to this small place to suffer. They were all relieved.
Li Zhen said: "It's Brigadier Chen who knows the general idea." He glanced at the rest of the people, and the ferocity in his eyes made Qi Zhenhai, Liu Jintang and others tremble.
Immediately, Li Zhen asked: "Mayor Liu, Brigadier Chen will stay and cooperate with you, what do you think?"
Liu Yongfu nodded and said: "Okay, okay."
After a brief pause, Liu Yongfu smiled slightly and said, "Brigadier Chen, I don't understand many things. Please take care of me."
Chen Yucheng also said: "Mayor Liu is too polite, let's discuss it together."
Li Zhen interjected: "Except for Chen Yucheng, no one else took the initiative to stay, so Chen Yucheng will stay in Hong Kong. However, Chen Yucheng's status as brigade commander is obviously not enough. He was promoted to division commander and led a division of troops to be stationed in Hong Kong. "
"brush,."
In an instant, there was a noise in the hall.
No one expected that Chen Yucheng would be promoted from brigade commander to division commander.
Not only Qi Zhenhai, Yang Banhou, but also Chen Yucheng himself were extremely surprised. Liu Jintang didn't feel anything at all. He was still young and had plenty of time, so he was not in a hurry. At this moment, Qi Zhenhai and the brigade commander under Yang Banhou were They felt so regretful that they wanted to slap themselves twice. If they had stayed, they would have had the opportunity to be promoted and be on the same level as their teacher. But now that this great opportunity had slipped away, you can imagine the regret in their hearts.
Once the person is selected, there is no regret medicine, and it is impossible for Li Zhen to change his order.
Each brigade commander had a sad face and his heart was bleeding.
Chen Yucheng took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and calmed down. He said to himself, this is just a small teacher, is it worth your fuss? Chen Yucheng quickly calmed down, "President, although I As a division commander, you have also given me an establishment of 10,000 people, but there are no soldiers. If we recruit again, it will be difficult to form combat effectiveness in a short time."
Li Zhen said: "This is simple. Select two brigades from Qi Zhenhai and Yang Banhou to form combat effectiveness. The remaining brigade will be slowly recruited from the people of Hong Kong."
"Thank you, President."
Chen Yucheng chuckled and looked at Qi Zhenhai and Yang Banhou with smiles in their eyes.
However, Commander Qi and Commander Yang looked sad and yelled in their hearts, "Why do you choose soldiers from your own army?" They did not dare to refute Li Zhen, so they could only swallow the pain in their stomachs, especially The two of them looked at Chen Yucheng's smiling expression, with a hint of prayer in their eyes, hoping that Chen Yucheng would not be too cruel. If the main force was transferred away, the two of them would definitely be seriously injured.
…
In the north, the vast prairie.
The Borzigit tribe, in the royal tent.
Directly above the big tent, there sat a burly man wearing a felt hat and fur clothes. This man was tall and tall, with a thick beard that was very conspicuous, and his eyes shone with a ferocious look, like A wild wolf, he is the leader of the Borzigit tribe. His eyes swept over the people in the big tent, his expression was serious and serious, and he said: "Everyone, the Emperor of Tsarist Russia has secretly given us weapons support and will manufacture them in Vladivostok." The dispute attracted the attention of the Han people, and now that we have enough strength, I think the time has come to go south, and it is time for Li Zhen to see the power of the eagle on the grassland."
His eyes were shining with hatred.
revenge.
He wants revenge.
His son Azamu's death could not be in vain. Although Li Zhen tried his best to hide it, he still found out the murderer. He did not hold back at first because he was not strong enough. Now that he has enough power, he wants to avenge Azamu.
