Wang Hengyue and Chen Laohan talked for more than two hours!

Wang Hengyue was greatly impressed when he heard this, how exquisite are these methods of the ancients? The measurement method is exactly the same as that of my time.

Although some methods sound primitive, they are the best choice in the most helpless situation, which is really doing good things for the people and saving the lives of the people! Compared with some people in my time who only shouted slogans, I don't know how many times stronger!

After hearing that Chen Laohan had finished telling everything he knew, Wang Hengyue asked him to seal a hundred taels of silver, and personally sent him out respectfully. As soon as he returned, he commanded in a loud voice:

"Get me all those water monuments, water measurement methods, water reports, and sheep reports. In particular, the recruitment of brave and strong people who know how to serve as sheep newspapers, the salary is three times according to the position of the commander of the regiment in the army! In the event of an accident, the bereavement pension will also be given three times! ”

"Heng Shuai, isn't it within the control of our forces?" Wang Qinglu asked.

Wang Hengyue was silent: "Tell the local governors, just say that I said it, there will be heavy rains in the next few months, please prepare for it early." ”

Wang Qinglu sighed softly: "I'm afraid that they won't listen to us!" ”

"It's their business whether they listen or not, but we must warn in time."

Speaking of this, Wang Hengyue stopped talking, but unfortunately, his power was only in southern Sichuan. If the whole of Sichuan were under their control, perhaps the losses would have been minimized.

Wang Hengyue has always just wanted to be a little warlord, seek maximum benefits, and slowly develop himself and then try to Sichuan. But this incident made Wang Hengyue's heart burn a flame, and he suddenly found that he was so eager to get the whole of Sichuan as soon as possible

"Heavy rain? Who is Wang Hengyue himself? Immortal? Or Zhuge Liangna? Liu Cunhou sneered disdainfully: "Pretending to be a ghost and fooling the villagers, only ignorant people will be fooled." ”

"Exactly, exactly." Chief of Staff Gao Deguang said with a smile: "Wang Hengyue is afraid that he is so sick and confused, he really regards himself as an immortal, and what will happen in a few months can be predicted." It's just that he is in a lot better now, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get it back in Luzhou. ”

Liu Cunhou said coldly: "Are you really Wang Hengyue's Luzhou?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Chief of Staff." Liu Cunhou patted his chief of staff on the shoulder: "That's Hu Jingyi's, Hu Jingyi used a Luzhou to monitor both Wang Hengyue and us." ”

Gao Deguang thought for a while: "The town guard makes Gao Jian, the town guard makes Gao Jian!" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Yucheng has opened a new Yucheng Hotel, which is very magnificent." ”

"Oh? Have you paid all the fees that should be paid? ”

"It's all handed over, but I heard that I don't know if it's true or not, it is said that this Yucheng Hotel has something to do with Wang Hengyue, I sent someone to check, but I can't find anything."

"Really? It may have something to do with Wang Hengyue? Liu Cunhou thought for a while: "Let's go, take a look!" ”

Almost everyone in Yucheng knows that a magnificent Yucheng Hotel has opened, and it was very lively on the opening day, with lion dances and other things, and many foreigners came to congratulate them.

Who is behind the scenes of this Yucheng Hotel? The big guys are talking a lot, and they have everything to say.

A group of soldiers ran over, loaded with guns, and people nearby hurriedly avoided it.

Then, the two horses came over slowly, and Liu Cunhou took the leather whip and pointed: "This is it?" ”

"Yes, that's it."

"Let's go, take a look, Yucheng Hotel, the name is very magnificent." Liu Cunhou got off his horse and said.

Ma Ben hurriedly opened the way, and shouted as soon as he entered the lobby: "What about the person in charge?" Will pant out one! Fuck, didn't you see the town guard coming?"

There were a few foreigners sitting in the lobby, and the roar of Ma Ben made them all raise their heads, and they looked at it with dissatisfaction, Liu Cunhou was startled, he didn't expect that there were really so many foreigners here!

"The town guard makes the adults come, and there is a loss of welcome, and there is a loss of welcome!" As he spoke, a young man in a dressy dress walked over.

Liu Cunhou looked at him: "Are you the person in charge?" ”

"Yes, yes, the surname Wang, Wang Huihai, just came back from the United States."

"Is the surname Wang again? Also came back from the United States? Liu Cunhou asked suspiciously: "What is the relationship between you and Wang Hengyue?" ”

"Who?" Wang Huihai was stunned for a moment and seemed to react: "Is the lord talking about Wang Hengyue, the guard of southern Sichuan?" Contempt has nothing to do with him. ”

Liu Cunhou didn't believe it, he heard that Wang Hengyue came back from the United States, and this person who came from the United States must have something to do with Wang Hengyue.

This set of logic, I'm afraid that only this Yucheng town guard can think of it.

Liu Cunhou snorted in his nose: "Check!" ”

"This" Wang Huihai hurriedly said: "My lord, I have all the formalities. Besides, there are customers in the store now, and I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to disturb the customers. Come, bring a thousand taels of silver to the adults. ”

"No need!" Liu Cunhou waved his hand: "As the envoy of Yucheng Town, Liu has a heavy responsibility, and he does not dare to relax a little. At the moment, the chaotic party is rampant, or they are hiding here, check! ”

"Why check? It's all qualified here. A voice came.

Liu Cunhou looked over and saw a foreigner with a high nose and deep eyes coming down upstairs, Wang Huihai hurriedly introduced: "My lord, this is my partner Mr. Martin. ”

Martin walked over and looked very dissatisfied: "Our formalities are qualified, you have no reason to check, you have alarmed our guests, please leave immediately, otherwise I will go to the consulate and say, the consul is my good friend, I will make the most solemn protest to your country's political axe!" ”

Liu Cunhou was startled when he thought that a foreign partner would appear and hear that he was going to alarm the consulate. He was originally a chameleon, but his face changed at that time, and he said with a smile:

"Mr. Martin, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, since it was opened by the Americans, there must be no problem, go, go!"

Laughing again and again, he retreated with his soldiers.

Wang Huihai and Martin looked at each other and smiled, Martin suddenly said very seriously: "Boss, I am a good friend of Pete, and now that I am hired here, our salary has not been discussed."

"Salary? It's good to say, it's good to say, how much salary does Pete get and how much salary do I give you? ”

"But Pete said that his boss was always on his salary, and I thought we should sign a formal contract first."

"Ah, haha, haha, yes." Wang Huihai nodded again and again, and suddenly said: "Look at how good the weather is today, by the way, Martin, how old are you, and what family do you have in the United States?" ”

"I'm twenty-six," Martin replied, and suddenly remembered the matter of wages, and before he could speak, Wang Huihai had already put his arms around him, and said as he walked out:

"Martin, this Yucheng is very fun, let's go, I'll take you to visit."

"How can this be reasonable, how can it be so reasonable, to use foreigners to oppress me!"

Back at his town guard office, Liu Cunhou was furious and scolded as he walked.

"Envoy, you're back, someone has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Who? Fuck, no, no! ”

"My lord, it's Wu Xiangzhen, the brigade commander of the 4th Beiyang Brigade."

"What? Wu Xiangzhen is here? Liu Cunhou was taken aback, hurriedly sorted out his military uniform, hurriedly walked in, and saw Wu Xiangzhen standing there admiring a painting on the wall.

"Brigade Commander Wu, hey, why don't you say it early when you come, I'll send someone to meet you." Liu Cunhou greeted him warmly.

Wu Xiangzhen arched his hand: "Don't dare to work to guard the town." ”

Liu Cunhou invited him to sit down and let people serve tea: "I have long heard that Brigade Commander Wu is coming, and my brother is looking forward to it all night." ”

Wu Xiangzhen smiled slightly and politely.

Liu Cunhou was very nervous in his heart, since he heard that the Beiyang Army was going to enter Sichuan, he was panicked, and he looked forward to not coming to his own Yucheng, who thought that the more afraid he was, the more he would come.

"Brother was ordered to be stationed in Yucheng, so let's take a look at where we can garrison troops." Wu Xiangzhen said with a smile: "I still have to rely on the town guard envoy." ”

Liu Cunhou swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

"There is another matter, brother first reveal it to the town guard envoy, and the town guard envoy also has a preparation in advance." Wu Xiangzhen said unhurriedly:

"The chaotic parties in various places have been subsided one after another, and the state is short of funds, and it really can't afford to raise so many troops, so all localities have to reduce the number of troops. The 4th Division is a counterinsurgency hero, and I hope to set an example this time. ”

"This!" Liu Cunhou was shocked, Yuan Shikai was really going to go under the knife on himself?

Zai said with pleading: "Brigade Commander Wu, please tell President Xia that although the chaotic party is peaceful, the situation in Sichuan is still unstable." As for this military expenditure, it will be resolved by Liu himself. ”

"How can I have that right to meet the President? It's just a matter of conveying it. Wu Xiangzhen stood up with a smile, and his face sank suddenly: "If there is a situation in Sichuan again, it will naturally be leveled by our Beiyang, why should the town guard raise so many troops?" ”

"I, this"

"Within a month, the reorganization must be completed." Wu Xiangzhen's voice was slightly raised: "The 4th Division will be reduced to 5,000 people, and according to the changes in the situation, it will continue to be reduced!" ”

Liu Cunhou sat there dejectedly, his face pale.

Cross the river and tear down the bridge, unload the mill and kill the donkey! Yuan Shikai has already done it, but I'm afraid that the situation is not as simple as reducing the army! Yuan Shikai, Yuan Shikai!

Wu Xiangzhen walked to the door, suddenly turned around and said with a slight smile:

"By the way, Lord Guard, I heard that you went to the Yucheng Hotel today? Brother and you discuss something, that inn brother also has some shares, and please let the town guard make your subordinates merciful! ”
