Chapter 132: Digging the Corners of the Beiyang Wall (Part I)

Mainland, Shandong, Weihaiwei, some people were drunk in taverns.

"Lao Tzu was on the Zhenyuan ship back then, how could he ever be afraid of the Japanese Kou? It's all those mediocre officials of the imperial court who actually deducted the funds of our Beiyang Naval Division, so that we couldn't beat the Japanese at all. And that old lady in the Forbidden City, I want to ......"

"Brother Niu, be cautious, be cautious!" Someone immediately persuaded him.

But the cow brother snorted: "Hmph, be cautious? Now that the Beiyang Naval Division has been disbanded, we have nowhere to go, and the imperial court no longer wants us. The brothers are all scattered, and my Zhenyuan ship has been captured by the Japanese pirates, what kind of face do I have to go to my hometown fathers? I don't have the face to go back, I can only live here one day at a time! ”

"Hey, the court! Taiwan Province alone is able to defeat more than 100,000 Japanese troops, but our mainland has hundreds of thousands of troops, so why can't we defeat the Japanese army? ”

"Yes, Taiwan is powerful, Taiwan's Governor Wang Guorui, can beat the Japanese army to the ground, my old cow obeys him! This is the hero, why wasn't he on our continent at that time? The old cow said.

And many people also sighed, obviously very disappointed that Wang Guorui was not in the mainland. If Wang Guorui was in the mainland at that time, then maybe the domestic war situation would not have ended like this. And these people were the sailors of the Beiyang Naval Division at that time, the Beiyang Naval Division was defeated by the Japanese army, and now the ships of the Beiyang Naval Division have been captured by the Japanese army, and these sailors have nowhere to go. Many of these sailors are sailors in the Beiyang Naval Division, and they don't know anything else except fighting. And this time they lost the battle, and they didn't have the face to go back to see their hometown fathers. Some people also started to buy drunk everywhere, hoping to use alcohol to numb themselves. Now more than a year has passed since the surrender of the Beiyang Naval Division, but the day of the surrender of the Beiyang Naval Division has always been in their minds, and it is a lingering nightmare.

On that day, they were defeated at the hands of the Japanese. There was no ship since. And those steel battleships are their second home, and now they don't have their own home, which of course makes people feel miserable.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I heard that you are the heroes of the Beiyang Naval Division, and I admire you very much. I've got your drink today! Someone said right away.

"Huh? Who are you? The old cow asked.

And this person immediately said, "My name is Zhou Chen." It's the people of Hongmen! ”

"Hongmen?"

In this era, many people at the bottom of the society have heard of Hongmen, and Hongmen is very powerful, with hundreds of thousands of people. However, these people are all loose sand, and the habits of the rivers and lakes are strict, which is a kind of party. And now this person who calls himself Hongmen has come to find himself, which makes these soldiers of the Beiyang Naval Division feel a little surprised. These Hongmen and the army have always been not very good at dealing with each other, after all, these Hongmen belong to the ancient black. Society, the court and the army naturally did not like them very much. Moreover, Hongmen has always secretly taken it as its mission to oppose the Qing Dynasty. Naturally, it was not very recognized by the imperial court.

"I heard from a few people just now, you are very dissatisfied with the Japanese army?" Zhou Chen asked.

And the sailors immediately said: "We have a deep enmity with the Japanese!" ”

"Oh? If there is a chance for revenge, will you go for it? Zhou Chen asked.

Lao Niu immediately asked, "Who are you?" You're not an ordinary person, are you? ”

"Haha, that's right, I'm not an ordinary person, I'm from Taiwan." Zhou Chen said.

This Zhou Chen, who is also a small leader in the Taiwan Tiandi Association, was later incorporated into the General Intelligence Administration. And he is now sent to the mainland by Liu Feng of the General Intelligence Agency. Perform a special task. His task was to recruit these sailors from the original Beiyang Naval Division, and then to form Taiwan's naval forces. As for the Heaven and Earth Society, they are actually related to each other. Wang Guorui asked Liu Feng to borrow the relationship network of the Taiwan Heaven and Earth Society in the past, and soon covered Zhou Chen's arrival in the mainland, and then he could carry out his own work.

Since Wang Guorui wants to form a navy, he naturally has to have naval officers. However, it is impossible for Wang Guorui to train naval officers for the time being, after all, it takes several years for a mature naval officer to succeed. And where did Wang Guorui have time to train like this, and when he trained it, the daylily was cold. Therefore, he adopted the important human resource tactic of the enterprise in his previous life - digging into the wall. If you want to say where there are sailors in the country. That's nothing but the mainland. The mainland's Beiyang Naval Division had just suffered a defeat, and most of the warships were either sunk or captured by the Japanese, so those sailors were also "unemployed".

And once these sailors lose their jobs, they are very miserable. After all, what they learn is the ability to fight. All other livelihood skills have been lost. Once they are in society, it may be difficult to find suitable positions to work. What's more, they were all officials in the army, and if they returned to the place to work for others, they couldn't figure it out in a short time. And the salary and treatment cannot be compared with when they were sailors, so they drink all day and get drunk.

At this time, Wang Guorui could send people to recruit these sailors, and then let them come over to form their own naval forces. At that time, these sailors will be full-fledged sailors, and they will be able to do so without additional training. It may even be possible to recruit some naval officers and send them to Taiwan as naval officers, and then rebuild a more powerful fleet. These officers are ready-made, and they are the essence of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's cultivation of the navy for many years, and now Wang Guorui Ke has come directly to dig the foot of the wall.

Since ancient times, digging the foot of the wall is a very good method, first of all, you don't need to train your own talents, you can use it directly when you dig it, saving a lot of training costs. On the other hand, directly poaching is equivalent to reducing the talent for competitors or potential competitors, so that they have increased their talents, and their advantages are not greater in the case of eliminating the other's strengths? Of course, the main thing is that these sailors of the Beiyang Naval Division are Chinese, people of the same culture, and it is easier to dig the foot of the wall. And they have a grudge against the Japanese Kou, and Wang Guorui is famous for resisting Japan, so it is easier to gain their hearts as Wang Guorui's anti-Japanese heroes. On the whole, digging the corner of the Beiyang Naval Division is a fast, efficient, and low-cost method.

"Guys, since you don't have ships now, that is, you don't have a way to make a living, then we in Taiwan welcome those of you who dare to fight the Japanese invaders. We in Taiwan are about to prepare for the formation of a sailor, and we need those of you who are skilled in operating ships and are familiar with sailors. As long as you are willing to go, we are willing to reuse it, and when the time comes, Lord Wang will definitely give you high-ranking officials? Even, don't you hate the pirates? The Wako have killed many of your comrades-in-arms and brothers, don't you want to avenge them? I can tell you the truth here, we in Taiwan, and the Japanese are not finished. Sooner or later, we will have to settle this account with the Japanese Invaders, so if you are willing to join our Taiwanese sailors, then we will definitely be able to settle accounts with the Japanese Invaders! Zhou Chen said.

"However, Taiwan listens to the people in the imperial court that it is a rebellion!" Someone said hesitantly.

But the old cow immediately said, "Rebellious? Afraid of what? It is rare for Taiwan to dare to fight with the Japanese invaders, so what are we afraid of? What's more, what kind of special administrative region is Taiwan, and whether or not Taiwan has become independent and established a state, we are just within the same country, so who is it not a life to give anyway? If Taiwan dares to fight with the Japanese invaders, then what if we follow Taiwan? The imperial court does not dare to fight with the Japanese invaders now, so we will go to find people who dare to fight with the Japanese invaders, what is this? ”

I have to say that Wang Guorui's strategy for this special administrative region is still good, after all, if Taiwan can really go out independently, it will not be easy to dig into the wall. At that time, they will all be people who split the country in the country, and first of all, the wisdom of the nation will not be tenable in the general righteousness. And if the so-called Qing Dynasty dependency can be retained, then there is no psychological obstacle for all kinds of elites in China to take refuge in Taiwan, after all, it is all Chinese land, so who is not taking refuge in it? Anyway, it's just eating with different governors, and there's nothing wrong with it.

"Brother Zhou, many of us are not doing well, do you think we can go to Taiwan together?" Lao Niu asked.

"Welcome, we welcome! All sailors who are willing to go to Taiwan together, then we are all welcome, and we will have as many as we want. As long as you are willing to go, we in Taiwan will be responsible for distributing the travel expenses and helping to coordinate your family to go together. If you want, I can arrange it for you. My Hongmen identity is real, and my network is very rich, which can help you send your family over together! Zhou Chen said.

Zhou Chen's Tiandihui network can mobilize relations, and the scattered Tiandihui organizations on the mainland can send the families of those sailors to Taiwan to solve their worries. And with these sailors, not only will there be enough sailors, but these sailors can gradually become reserve cadets of the navy, and then gradually train officers out. These sailors are all natural persons, and they have much greater potential than those sailors of the Red Police, and they can produce many officers when the time comes, and they will come to recruit them while they are unemployed, and many of them must be willing to go to Taiwan. Whether it is from national enmity or their own interests, joining Taiwan will certainly have great benefits, so they are willing to go to Taiwan to take up posts, so that when the time comes, they can help those comrades-in-arms who died in the First Sino-Japanese War to avenge their shame and seek shame from the Japanese.

At home, Wang Guorui's benefits are not low, so many people are willing to join in. Even, they also launched the past comrade-in-arms, and many people will join together. (To be continued......)
