When Shi Dakai set off a huge wave in Anhui, Guo Ye and hundreds of elite soldiers under him had already taken a ship to the port of Philadelphia in the United States.
On the port of Philadelphia, Colt has long been looking forward to it, this is the first time his biggest partner has come to the United States, he must be entertained, in less than two years, Guo Ye has earned him millions of fortunes! There is no doubt that it is his own big benefactor!
"Dear General Guo, we meet again, welcome to the United States of America!"
Colt laughed and came to Guo Ye's approach, stretched out his hands and gave Guo Ye a big hug.
For this miraculous general in front of him, Colt has admired it to the extreme, who can accurately predict the economic situation in the United States from 20,000 miles away, and be able to command remotely, in just three months, swept away millions of dollars from the American gold market, even those big bankers and investors in England do not have such superb ability.
Moreover, in this gold war, all the financial elites are full of curiosity and amazement for these two mysterious young men, before that, the two of them were unknown, three or four months, a battle to become famous, Morgan is naturally famous all over the world, becoming the upstart of the American financial industry, the best of the rising stars; But who the mysterious Chinese really is, no one knows.
Only Colt understands what kind of magical abilities this person possesses!
Guo Ye smiled: "Mr. Colt." We met again. Nice to see you. ”
Colt and Guo Ye talked and laughed a few words. They left the harbor together and came to the lodging that Colt had arranged for them.
"Colt, how's it going?"
Colt sighed and replied: "Now the rebel party in the south has regarded our arsenal as a thorn in the side, and I have been thorned in the flesh, although I have done some communication with the rebel party in the south through some connections, but the effect is very unsatisfactory, and the arsenal has been disturbed by the small group of rebel party troops in the south three or four times. Their purpose is not only to destroy our factory, but even to completely control the military shovel for their use, but if it is really not possible, then we have to move the place, after all, we are only a factory, and it is impossible to compete with the southern rebels......"
Guo Ye was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the problem to be so serious.
"Has the arsenal suffered losses? How's it going? ”
Guo Ye hurriedly asked.
Colt smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, I am lucky to have the army brought from China." The first three attacks had been repelled by our convoy, with the exception of some damage to the factory walls and premises. The rest is fine, but next, if the southern rebels send troops, it will be difficult for us to resist, after all, with the lessons of the previous three times, they will definitely send a large number of troops! ”
"Doesn't the government of the north send troops to protect the arsenal? You know, more than two-thirds of the rifles in the northern army are now produced by us, and once there is a problem with the armament shovel, then the northern government is not finished? ”
Guo Ye asked.
Colt smiled bitterly: "Send troops to protect? Where is it so easy? In the current civil war, the rebel parties in the south have the support of Britain and France, and they are strong and well prepared; On the other hand, the government in the north, lacking the support of its allies in the back, and at the same time rushing to the battle, passive to the extreme, the government army was killed by the rebels in the south and retreated, where is there still extra troops to protect the arsenal? ”
Forehead......
Guo Ye's face turned dark, and he was a shameless country in England and France, so special!
Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "It takes time to relocate the factory, before and after, I'm afraid that we don't have more than half a year, and thinking about resuming work will not only cause us a huge loss, but even your government army can't bear such a big loss, right?" ”
Colt said abruptly, "So what? Now that the government army has been defeated in successive battles, there is no power left to protect our factory! When the southern rebels really arrive, we won't just lose a little bit......"
Guo Ye sneered: "Since your government army doesn't have the ability to protect our property, then we'll do it ourselves!" If I don't come to America, that's it, since I'm here, I'm going to see which one of Lao Tzu's arsenals comes to spread wild! My brothers don't eat dry food! ”
Colt's eyes lit up and he asked, "General Guo, how many people did you bring this time?" ”
Guo Ye replied lightly: "There are not many people, only three battalions, 1,200 people, but if the southern rebels want to rob my arsenal, then it depends on whether they have the ability!" ”
Guo Ye was thinking left and right in Jinan, but he still made up his mind to take his own training army out for a trip, three battalions, a cavalry battalion, an infantry battalion, and an artillery battalion, all of which were carefully selected elites, plus Chen Hai and Gao Qi and Luo Bicheng and other brothers, Guo Ye was ruthless and wanted to rebuild his lineage, although the combat strength of the American rebels was not as good as that of Britain and France, but it was also much stronger than those old soldiers and long-haired and twisted bandits in China, only in the face of more powerful opponents, You will become stronger faster!
Colt was excited in his heart, the strength of three battalions, plus the original two or three hundred troops of Baoding Town, that is the military strength of an integrated regiment! With this force, what are the southern rebels afraid of? If it's a big deal, it's a big deal!
Guo Ye continued: "Colt, my people can't come in vain, there are requirements, since the government army can't help, then let them allocate weapons and artillery for us, I want your most advanced artillery, give me two battalions of artillery and unlimited shells, and also, they can't work hard in vain, let the northern government pay the money, as for the mercenary money, you are better than me, go and get me a reasonable data back." ”
Colt said excitedly: "Okay, General Guo, this matter is on me, the artillery equipment is simple, it is available in Richmond, and it can be equipped for us at any time, as for the mercenary money, I will strive for a monthly remuneration of two hundred dollars for each of them, as for the arsenal, I will not use them in vain, I will provide them with a subsidy of one hundred dollars a month, how about it?" ”
Guo Ye smiled coldly and replied: "In terms of the arsenal, you are in charge, but in terms of the government, this amount is not good, in a word, not less than five hundred dollars per month, everyone, you just talk according to this standard, I don't believe that the northern government is willing to give up the arsenal!" ”
