When the Far East Group encircled Daman this time, Duleazi and Edward VII had different mentality.
Al-Dulazi was a blessing in disguise and became the king of Saudi Arabia, so he believed that he needed Li Ningyu's help so that he could control the whole of Saudi Arabia step by step. Therefore, he wanted to establish a military base in Dammam in the Far East.
Express approval with both hands and willingness to actively cooperate.
Although all the four tigers of Nejd have now surrendered, the military power in their hands has not been transferred. All this is in accordance with the agreement reached between the Far East and them.
Edward VII, on the other hand, looked further ahead. This time the Far East Group was involved in Middle East affairs, which originally made the British authorities not very satisfied. But fortunately in the end, Li Ningyu was willing to hand over Jordan, which calmed some dissatisfaction in the UK.
Harmonious sound.
The figure of 30,000 garrison troops was the result of many days of discussion by the British authorities, but Li Ningyu seemed not to care about this figure at all. It seemed that this 30,000-person army could defeat a hundred people with one enemy.
Being able to sit in the position of king, Edward VII is not a big idiot. His free and easy personality does not mean that he has no scheming, so he is also preparing to build a military base in Bahrain.
Bahrain is also a small island country in the Middle East. It is in the southwest of the Persian Gulf, close to Qatar and Saudi Arabia. In the mid-19th century, both Qatar and Qatar were colonized by the British. Bahrain's geographical location is across the sea from Dammam.
The nearest place is less than fifteen nautical miles.
After delineating the sea, land and air military bases in the Persian Gulf, Li Ningyu, who was in a good mood, returned to the temporary residence with Edward VII and Duleazi. At the dinner that day, Li Ningyu also ordered people to bring out five of the things he brought from China.
Ten years old liquor.
But Dule Aziz was a Muslim and could only drink tea instead of wine, and Edward VII preferred to drink whiskey, so in the end it was Li Ningyu, Tie Bing, and Kong Xiaoping who drank the whole bottle.
Li Ningyu returned to his residence with a slight hint of drunkenness, but as soon as he walked into the room, a gleam appeared in his eyes as he was originally drunk.
Tie Bing and Kong Xiaoping, who had been following him for a long time, quickly closed the door.
"Tomorrow's drill is very important, are you ready?" Sitting on the sofa in the room, Li Ningyu took a sip of tea and said.
"Master Yu, everything is ready, just wait and watch the show tomorrow!" Kong Xiaoping, who was also drinking from a tea cup, said in an orderly manner.
Li Ningyu nodded and said bluntly to the two of them: "Okay, let's talk about the subsequent plan! Now that the site has been circled, the top priority is to put the construction of the base on the schedule as soon as possible. For this
Point, do you have any ideas?".
"First of all, I think that troops should be withdrawn from the Jordan area, so that oil exploration, mining and the construction of land, sea and air bases can be greatly accelerated!"
Kong Xiaoping, who had thought about it for a long time, was the first to express his thoughts, but was rejected by Li Ningyu, who shook his head and said: "The matter of withdrawing troops is not feasible for the time being. Although Saudi Arabia is unified on the surface, there are still internal conflicts.
There are many problems. In addition, the British want to make a profit, and they will definitely not agree to our doing this. By then, if something that is already a done deal changes, all our previous efforts will be in vain!"
"But Master, it won't do us any good if we continue to fight!" Tie Bing, who had not yet spoken, seemed to agree with Kong Xiaoping's suggestion, so he asked Li Ningyu in confusion.
But Li Ningyu did not agree and said: "I also understand this, but let's not discuss this point for now. The number of troops we have invested in Jordan is only 60,000, so we just need to slow down the progress! We are still
Let’s talk about the construction issues in the two places. Do you have any good ideas about this?”
When Kong Xiaoping and Tie Bing saw that Li Ningyu did not agree to withdraw their troops, Tie Bing followed Li Ningyu's idea and said: "The infrastructure construction in these two places is very large, especially the sea, land and air military bases. Although the area
It’s not too big, but it involves all aspects of the problem. After all, we have to do some things ourselves, so the best way is to hire more Saudi people!”
Li Ningyu was thinking about Tie Bing's words. After three minutes, Li Ningyu nodded and said: "It seems that this is the only way for now. You two will work hard tonight and make a rough plan. If there are really not enough people, you can
Although the cost of mobilizing workers directly from Africa is a little higher, these people can still be invested in exploration and production in the future!"
"Yes!" Tie Bing and Kong Xiaoping stood up and responded.
After seeing off Tie Bing and Kong Xiaoping, Li Ningyu went to bed early because he had not had a good night's sleep these days, not only because of dealing with the Far East Group's affairs, but also because he had to stay with Duan Tong almost every day.
For several hours, he was almost constantly turning.
The joint military exercise starting tomorrow morning is very important to the Far East, so he wants to face everyone in a high-spirited state. After all, this time European countries have sent envoys, including the United States in the Americas.
Minister of Canada, India in Asia, Australia, etc.
After a dreamless night, Li Ningyu slept extremely comfortably, but before dawn, he was awakened by the sound outside the door.
"Master, this is the military intelligence telegram from General Peng De of the Northern Theater Command!" the messenger outside the door said in a calm tone.
"Come in!" As soon as he heard the call from Peng De, Li Ningyu got up from the bed. After receiving the message, he signaled the messenger to go out.
Opening the paper bag specially placed for letters, Li Ningyu took out a telegram that had just been translated and read it carefully. The beginning of the letter was mainly Peng De's greetings to Duan Tong. After a few strokes, he mentioned the recent Tsarist Russia.
There was news in the Northeast, but the article mentioned another issue that Li Ningyu paid attention to.
The late Qing government, since the First Opium War, has gone to the grave. According to Li Ningyu, for some things, it is only a matter of time.
In addition, the Far East Group's foothold is not in China at all, so he just wants to wait until the inevitable moment and take action in an instant.
However, Peng De's message contained insinuations about the current situation in the country, which forced Li Ningyu to pay attention because some things were unexpectedly advanced.
The Revolution of 1911 was a great domestic revolution that broke out in 1911 AD. It occurred on the basis of the increasingly decadent late Qing Dynasty and the further deepening of imperialist aggression. It overthrew the Zhuanzhi rule of the late Qing regime, saved the nation from peril, and led the country to a new direction.
Independence, independence and prosperity.
At the same time, it ended the monarchy system in the country that had lasted for more than two thousand years, which was a great revolutionary movement.
But this incident happened ten years in advance, which shocked Li Ningyu. Peng De's telegram also mentioned that there were many things that should not have appeared in it. Peng De thought it was Li Ningyu who was directing the incident.
