Chapter 1031: There are many spies
"Have you heard of that? The British intervened. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"How can that be? Lao Mei hasn't repaired it yet. ”
"Yes. I am a soldier of heaven and court, and if I do not take the initiative to seek trouble with the Americans, it will be magnanimous. These yellow-haired foreigners don't know what to do, and they dare to reach out to us first. If you don't teach them a good lesson, the ghosts won't know how to write the word 'death'! ”
Just like his father Liang Zhaoxing's thoughts, Liang Haiyang, who is only 22 years old, is a person who was born in the new era and grew up in the new era, and he has a deep sense of contempt for foreigners in his bones. Chen Han was not a Manchu Qing Dynasty, because of the strong national strength and the victory of foreign wars again and again, the new young generation had endless pride in foreigners, rather than fear. Liang Hai** did not believe that the British, who were cowering in Canada, dared to take the initiative to start a war against Chen Han.
These young people have not experienced the hundred years of humiliating history of China in the original time and space, have not experienced the era when the Chinese people were oppressed, and do not know what the 'first-class ocean' is, they are born to live in the most powerful country on the planet, and they hold the strength of the country behind them, and they don't think that the British dare to reach out first.
Will Americans in the 21st century be afraid that Mexico will take the initiative to go to war against the United States?
Even if war really broke out, it was also their own army that fought Britain first.
"We have a population of more than 30,000,000, and we can muster millions of well-trained troops at the command of the imperial court, and we have a reserve army of tens of millions. How many foreigners are there? Can it be more than half of ours when added together? "This is the self-confidence that Chinese education has instilled in Chinese students since childhood.
At half past two in the afternoon, the last batch of customers also left, Liang Zhaoxing's beef soup shop entered a cold period, and his son Liang Haiyang took two hired workers to start cleaning up the seats, tidy and hygienic. And then it's time for them to eat.
Liang Zhaoxing, holding a bowl of wide noodles, sat alone at a table, with only a little chopped green onion, a few spinach, no meat, no other dishes, and the soup under the noodles was ordinary clear soup instead of beef broth. For Liang Zhaoxing, who has entered middle age, he has long had no feeling for beef. Now I feel that it is better to eat lightly.
Across the table from him, two large pots of meat and bones were resting on the table, and there was never a shortage of meat and bones in the beef soup shop, and the two hired men who had been in the shop for less than a month were far from getting tired of eating beef. It is the female relatives of the two families - Liang Haiyang's mother and his wife, each person has a bowl of clear soup noodles, a plate of boiled peanuts, and a plate of fried bean curd with vegetables.
Liang Haiyang's younger brother also held a bowl of noodles, lying on the table while flipping through the book "The Complete Biography of Yue Yue" on the table while eating. This stuff was absolutely fascinating in the past. Yue Fei is a hero who is particularly admired by the current emperor, and Yue Fei's story has appeared more than once in primary and secondary school textbooks, and it is also a magic weapon that storytellers have never tired of talking about over the years, just like the "Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin". When the Liang family's restaurant was opened, they had a special storyteller in the store at that time.
But now, if Liang Chaoyang wants to listen to the voice of the shocking wood again, it will be difficult. There are also storytellers in this part of the Americas, and there are also famous singers and tricksters, but how can they come to the ghost place of St. Mary in South Sioux now?
The economy and trade here seem to be prosperous, but compared to some places on the West Coast, it is not as attractive as the entertainment entertainers. And now in the Americas, people are most interested in war and despise the Yankees on the other side. If Liang Chaoyang could have a newspaper, he would not hold on to "The Complete Biography of Yue Yue".
Isn't South Sault Sainte's Mary too remote?
Not to mention the newspaper office in this place, there is no one to sell even newspapers. Even if a merchant brought in a new issue of the newspaper from the south, each issue would be delayed for ten days and a half months. The Mississippi River leads directly from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, but not to Tokyo and Hanjin. That's when every issue of the newspaper is delayed, and it comes and goes.
But this is St. Mary's of South Sioux, this is a small town of less than a thousand people, and life in a small town is so inconvenient.
Adam Lewis, who had just come out of the livestock market, walked towards the hotel where he was staying with a relaxed mood. The business was finally settled, 100 head of cattle and 100 horses, ready to obey his call this afternoon, and then on the cargo ship he had already booked, from Lake Huron to Sania. Although Lewis's destination in the trade is Toronto.
But these large livestock are sold to Toronto for less than the Americans give!
The Chinese army swept through the northern part of South America, taking a large number of cattle, horses, and livestock from the Spaniards. Even the Indians and Americans on the North American battlefield lost a lot of cattle, horses, and livestock to Chen Han's army.
These large livestock could not have been transported back to China for thousands of miles, so they had to be digested within the Americas.
This kind of thing is not once or twice, the two wars between Chen Han and Spain before, the Americas have experienced this kind of internal digestion.
Before the 'harvest season' comes, the price of the entire cattle and horse market will fall in an instant, and the price of a strong cow of thirty or forty yuan has dropped to twenty yuan now. The price of ordinary horses, which were all in the 100 yuan grade before, can drop by one-third in a straight line. Many of the immigrants in the country have benefited from this, and now the British are getting involved.
But Lewis had to go to the tax department at the checkpoint first to deal with the tariff problem.
More than a thousand British troops were stationed in North Sioux Sainte-Marie, which also stimulated consumption in North Sioux Sainte-Marie's to a certain extent. Moreover, the residents of South St. Mary and some of the defeated American soldiers also fled to North St. Mary, and the defeated soldiers could be sent to Detroit by the British, but the residents were not among them. There are now a number of restaurants and hotels in the city of Sault Ste. Marie North as well.
But cattle and horses can not be sold for money in North Sault Saint Mary, which is too close to South Sault Saint Mary.
Lewis paid his taxes in full from the tax office and returned to his residence with a paper pass. In the afternoon, it took Lewis a full afternoon to put all the cattle and horses in the fence of the ship, and then to the wharf of Saut Sainte-Marie, North to dine at a restaurant he frequented.
No one knew that Lewis had received a small note during the meal, and that Lewis, who had been well fed, reluctantly went somewhere he was very reluctant to go.
Lake James, the head of a British intelligence unit, waited in his hotel room for a certain 'white dove' that he had released to fly back. Yes, this is another identity of Lewis, an identity that cannot be seen in the light. He is a peripheral member of this intelligence group.
"How's the harvest? My friend. ”
"Not bad. At the end of this business, I can make a small profit. ”
"Don't interrupt, Lewis, you should know what I'm asking."
"That's bad. As a carrier pigeon, I haven't brought back any new news twice. If nothing else, my friend over there has already suffered. Lewis spread his hands, his mastermind on the intelligence line was codenamed 'Albatross', and Lewis's mission was simply to use his status as a businessman as a cover to receive information from the albatross and bring it back to Lake James.
"Albatross hopes he can get out as soon as possible. He was terrified now, desperate to get out of that place. He believes that his identity is likely to have been exposed, and he may be arrested by the Chinese at any time. Even Lewis was terrified when he met the albatross, and when he was later in the activities of St. Mary in South Su, he was afraid that a Chinese secret police would suddenly jump out.
James cursed viciously. It was a mistake, a huge mistake. I should have been alert after Lewis didn't bring back the information last time, and I should have immediately asked the albatross to quickly withdraw to St. Mary's in North Su, instead of letting the albatross stay in the south all the time, and let Lewis risk his own leakage to meet the albatross this time.
“ok。 I'll arrange it right away. If all goes well, tomorrow at noon at the Grove Restaurant, we'll pick up the wind and dust together for the albatross. After China's intelligence system was widely known to Western countries, European countries such as Britain, France, Russia, Austria and Prussia also set up their own intelligence departments, which were very formal, and there were government-established intelligence departments. He represents one of China's most invulnerable enemies today, but a Chinese word naturally pops out of his mouth, and Lewis does not find it abrupt at all.
"The mood of the Chinese in South Sudan Sainte-Marie is very stable, whether it is their garrison, the police station or the tax office, they are all working as usual. I couldn't see a hint of nervousness on their faces. "Just because he didn't get the information doesn't mean that Lewis didn't get anything.
"The price fluctuations of various materials are minimal. Even the price of cattle, horses, and livestock continued to fall by two percentage points. "This means that at least in China there is no large-scale gathering of materials at all, and of course, this may also be a trick by the Chinese." After all, Lewis's footsteps only stopped at St. Mary's in South Sioux.
James returned to the station immediately after sending Lewis away, and James was only a small shrimp in the intelligence system of the British in North America. Although the North Sioux Saint Mary is not a military stronghold, the entry point to the outside world is not only a small South Sioux Saint Mary. Here you can also keep an eye on the war in the Michigan Peninsula and information about the U.S. Great Lakes Fleet. Even in addition to the southern Su Saint Mary infiltrating into the Chinese, London was an important gathering point for the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, where many Eastern faces could be found. James was only the head of a certain intelligence group in South Su Saint Mary, and the British intelligence team in South Su Saint Mary was by no means the only one, but there were other people in charge of other things.
The British were much higher than James at the intelligence station of St. Mary's in North Sioux.
James now had to do everything in his power to inform the albatross to retreat back to St. Mary's in North Sioux as soon as possible. This does not need to be reported to the authorities for approval. The British were well aware of the procrastination and cumbersomeness of their own official style, and a special emergency mechanism was set up in intelligence work.
Otherwise, although the safety of an intelligence team is very important to the North Susan St. Mary's Intelligence Station, it is not guaranteed that it will be delayed for a day or two.
The most important thing for the British now was to get the approximate number of Chinese reinforcements coming to the Great Lakes. In this way, the Americans will have a spectrum in their hearts and prepare reinforcements as soon as possible. This is also the most important thing for the United States now. The importance of South Sioux Sainte-Marie is on the back burner.
The Americans are very numb now, and they are really making a big deal. After the British mediation was rejected by China, the whole of Washington was in mourning. The Americans find themselves now in a battle where every last drop of blood will be shed.
It is now only crying out for the aid of the British Empire. Since thinking about how to resist the attack of the Chinese in future wars.
The United States has suffered great losses in the south, Georgia and Alabama have been completely occupied by the Chinese, and South Carolina has been occupied by more than half of the Chinese army. Although these three states are only a small part of the land of the United States today, the most painful thing for the United States is the loss of troops in the defense of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina.
The loss of land, Washington is not afraid. It is the loss of living forces that makes Washington's heart ache.
When they fought the British Revolutionary War, Philadelphia [the seat of the Continental Congress] was captured by the British, but the Americans still held on. 'If the land is lost, the land is lost; Although the Americans are not necessarily aware of this truth, they do not delay them in applying it in practice.
