And when Li Ningyu looked at Liu Yongfu carefully, he also looked at Li Ningyu carefully. Because Li Ningyu was only more than 10 years old and not tall, Li Ningyu never wore official uniforms, but was as green as him.
Li Ningyu was dressed in a strong suit and looked at his appraising eyes. Li Ningyu naturally understood. Then Li Ningyu took a step forward according to the rules and said: "My subordinate, Li Ningyu of the Southwest Han Army Banner and Military Academy, pays homage to the Admiral!".
"Haha, you must be the young military academy boy!" Seeing Li Ningyu coming in front of him, Liu Yongfu immediately dismounted and then Li Ningyu heard his rough and feminine voice.
Then Li Ningyu waited for him to have a brief exchange and talk, and then took him to meet the main officers in Li Ningyu's camp. After about an hour of delay, he was ready to set off. Since the Black Flag Army itself is Vietnam
Of course, their team was in the front, and Li Ningyu's battalion was behind. When passing by the middle of the team, the shrewd Liu Yongfu still found several boxes on the cart.
Liu Yongfu turned to look at Li Ningyu, and Li Ningyu looked at him and said: "These are some of my personal belongings!" Then his eyes changed, as if he wanted to say something but did not say it.
, instead he yelled and rode away. Seeing him leaving, Li Ningyu naturally followed him on horseback, but Li Ningyu didn't know that his original impression suddenly disappeared in Liu Yongfu's heart.
Entering Vietnam, Liu Yongfu asked Li Ningyu to garrison in northern Vietnam, while the other three battalions of the Southwest Han Army Flag Battalion went with his brigade towards the capital Hue. At first, Li Ningyu heard about his arrangement.
, Li Ningyu was very dissatisfied, but he seemed to be very insistent, and Li Ningyu could not resist the execution, thinking: "Okay, I will stay in the north then, but don't look for me when you cry."
Several major events happened in the earth's world next. On July 28, there was a huge earthquake in Italy. On August 1, the Shanghai Water Company was established. On August 27, a volcano erupted in Indonesia and caused a tsunami, which directly caused the death of about 36,000 people. On September 28, Germany
Emperor William's assassination attempt failed, and when all this happened, Li Ningyu was leading his battalion in intense training and preparations for war.
Just when major events were happening in various countries, some major events also happened here in Li Ningyu. On the last day of September 1883, the French government appointed Guba as the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force and began to advance towards northern Vietnam. The general responsible for the expedition to Vietnam
The Qing admiral Liu Yongfu had already been defeated and fled due to the disparity in strength and weapons.
But on the last day of September, Li Ningyu was extremely happy, because in response to Li Ningyu's 100% accurate prediction, the German minister's assistant Morini had already set off to return to Germany immediately after the news of the earthquake in Italy. He had originally promised to give
The 300 guns and 3,000 rounds of ammunition that Li Ningyu bought turned into 500 guns and 10,000 rounds of ammunition. After Li Ningyu saw the arrival of hundreds of carriages escorted by Zhang Jun personally, Li Ningyu immediately began to prepare for the war.
general mobilization.
After walking out of the camp, Li Ningyu immediately shouted: "Iron soldiers gather everyone!" In about a stick of incense, 432 camp soldiers and the escort team who accompanied Zhang Jun to escort the guns gathered in the training ground.
Looking at the tanned faces around him, Li Ningyu winked at Zhang Jun, and then dozens of large boxes were opened. Brand-new black gun bodies and yellow-orange bullets were fired at everyone present.
All the soldiers brought unlimited temptation, and just after their eyes showed it.
Li Ningyu jumped off the high platform, took out 5 bullets from the box, loaded the bullets, slowly raised the rifle, aimed at the target in the distance, and then immediately pulled the trigger.
"Nine rings! Ten rings! Ten rings! Ten rings! Nine rings!" Then the voice of the target announcer came from the distance, and there was a sigh in the team. Quiet, quiet, the iron soldier immediately shouted loudly.
Caressing the still-heating rifle, Li Ningyu walked up to the high platform again, glanced around and said slowly: "Hello everyone! I'm calling everyone together today. I have something bad to tell you, but before that, I want to tell you something bad.
We are not here to enjoy the mountains and rivers! We are soldiers who are here to guard the country's borders. Although you are all good, and you have practiced your enemy-killing skills through such hard training, there are some things I still want to say in advance.
!".
"Right now I just want to tell you what's in my heart. Maybe I will behead myself because of what I said today, but I will never regret it! Because what I said is true, not a single word is false. Today, yesterday,
The day before yesterday, our country has been suffering bullying from foreigners, and the powers of various countries opened the door to our country with powerful ships and cannons!".
"In the two Opium Wars and other battles, many of our heroes died, but why is our nation still in disaster? In recent years, almost all the powerful countries in the world have treated our country with thousands of years of
Nations in history have launched one or even multiple wars of aggression!”.
"They either ganged up and invaded openly, or they invaded alone without declaring war; but more often they teamed up to plunder, forcing us to sign unequal treaties one after another, and these unequal treaties encroached and devoured our territory.
At the same time, they also sent troops to control important trading ports and establish concessions!"
"When there is a war, there are naturally sacrifices, and the great powers extort huge compensation after every war. What should we do?"
"Resist!", "Drive them away!" After Li Ningyu's words stung everyone's hearts, the soldiers in the camp shouted in excitement.
"Yes, but we are still very weak now, coupled with Lafayette's repeated compromises, and the Western powers have long entered the industrialization era. If we want to surpass them, it may take a long time, but I believe that as long as we unite,
We will surpass them, because we have 50 million compatriots. As long as we unite, the world will tremble because of us!" As soon as Li Ningyu finished his heartfelt words, the soldiers in the audience immediately roared.
: "Unity is strength! Unity! Unity!".
Then, starting from the iron soldiers, a cry of unity is strength rang out in the camp: "Unity is strength, unity is strength! This strength is iron, this strength is steel, harder than iron, stronger than steel, fire at the fascists,
Let all non-oppressive systems die! Shine toward the sun, toward freedom, and toward the new China!"
"Unity is Strength" was sung by everyone present. Then, looking at the expectant eyes, Li Ningyu ordered the firing of guns. From the guard Wang Yongxi to the camp soldier Liu Sangguo, it took about an hour to send out 500 guns.
The new rifles were distributed, and Li Ningyu felt a kind of invisible pressure when he saw the joy of everyone holding the new rifles. This time it was particularly strong. It may be that the time is getting closer. History is constantly moving forward, and I am also constantly moving forward.
forward.
