As soon as the bandit's voice fell, hundreds of ragged bandits came down from both sides of the hillside.If it weren't for the knives, guns and sticks in their hands, Lin Meizhu would have thought that they were refugees who fled from somewhere.The fire foxes in the carriage are all specially trained professional intelligence officers, and their mental qualities are hundreds of times stronger than ordinary people.In the face of unexpected situations, all Firefoxes did not panic.Instead, he pulled out the shell gun from his body, jumped out of the carriage and gathered around Lin Meizhu.When the robbers saw that the carriage was full of young and beautiful women, they immediately became excited.screaming and screaming, he completely surrounded the more than 30 people."
I advise you to leave here at once if you want to live.Miss Ben is happy today and doesn't want to kill anyone" Lin Meizhu stared at the robber with wide eyes, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, and her face was full of murderous energy."
Hey, this little girl's temper is quite hot.Ye just wanted to rob a fortune just now, depending on the situation, he had to force Ye to rob him" One of the robbers stood up, staring at Lin Meizhu with a lewd face, and even the corners of his mouth flowed out."
Bang" A gunshot pierced the world, and the robber looked at Lin Meizhu incredulously, and his chest was already bleeding in an instant."
Boss, boss" The robbers in the crowd took a few steps back in horror, and watched a little overwhelmed as the strong man fell in front of him.The strong man was the leader of the robbers, who was originally part of the Han Kwantung New Army.The Han Kwantung New Army suffered a crushing defeat in the defense of the Yalu River, and many of the remaining troops went up to the mountains to become bandits.When a few bold robbers saw the boss die tragically on the spot, they immediately stood up and slashed at Lin Meizhu."
Crackling" At this time, the gunfire suddenly rang out, and the fire fox gathered around Lin Meizhu almost simultaneously pulled the trigger of the barge gun in his hand.The bold robbers were instantly beaten into a meat sieve, and their whole bodies were blurred and lay on the ground."
These girls know how to do magic tricks" The robbers shouted in horror, seeing such a strange scene, they didn't dare to stay here any longer, and they fled to the back."
I don't think I can do it, I dare to rob Miss Ben" Lin Meizhu sneered, and all the fire foxes chuckled lightly.At this time, the sound of horses' hooves was loud, and puffs of smoke and dust rolled from a distance.The hearts of everyone who had just let go were instantly lifted again."
Sister Meizhu, it's not good, maybe it's a large army of robbers coming" "Sister Meizhu, you go first, we'll cover you in the back"" The fire foxes looked around vigilantly."
Don't panic, the sound of horses' hooves is very urgent, not to mention thousands of war horses.The bandits definitely don't have such strength, let's look at the situation and talk about it" Lin Meizhu didn't have a trace of panic, still staring faintly in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came.She judged correctly, and sure enough, there were thousands of war horses coming from afar.The road was dusty and the sound of horses' hooves was bursting, which made people's hearts fluctuate from a distance.The herd of horses soon besieged Lin Meizhu and her party, all dressed in green camouflage uniforms and carrying expeditionary rifles.The order goes out and enters, and the order stops and stops, and the military is very mighty.The firefoxes were immediately relieved and put away their shell guns.They naturally know the dress of the Huaxing Army, except for the Huaxing Army in this world, no army will be dressed like this."
Miss Lin Meizhu, on the orders of Vice Minister Wang Shijie, I have come to escort you back to Beijing City."
A young general jumped down from his war horse, hugged his fists and shouted at Lin Meizhu.The general was none other than Chu Tianyue, the commander of the Marine Division who was stationed in Jinzhou from Huludao.After the Hwaheung Army in Korea crossed the Yalu River and completed the strategic encirclement of the Protector Army in Jinzhou.Chu Tianyue was ready to kill and move his muscles.When the emperor was conquered in Japan, he surrendered before he could defeat the emperor.This time, Chu Tianyue thought that he could fight happily with the Protector Army in Jinzhou, but who knew that before he could make a move, Qiao Zhiqing's military order to stop the attack came from the front-line headquarters.The Jinzhou defense line was self-defeating, and Rong Lu retreated north with the Protector Army in a hurry, without even firing a shot.Chu Tianyue was depressed to death, and after entering Jinzhou, he looked everywhere for an opportunity to fight.Because the main forces of the Qing court either fled or were killed or wounded.So he led the team to exterminate the bandits from hill to mountain, as well as the remnants of the Qing court, and satisfied the battle in his heart.Just now, he was exterminating the bandits in the nearby mountains, when he heard the sound of gunfire nearby, he immediately rushed over with his cavalry regiment.The horses of this cavalry regiment were all borrowed from Luo Sanyuan's cavalry regiment, and the total number was about 1,500 people in a brigade.Chu Tianyue usually did not train cavalry, but after just a month of actual combat, this cavalry brigade was already very decent.After Wang Shijie, vice minister of national defense, learned that Qiao Zhiqing was going to transfer Lin Meizhu back to Beijing, he immediately notified the Huaxing army in the Kwantung region and asked them to search for Lin Meizhu's traces.Because of the time difference between Beijing and Kanto to deliver news, the news from Kanto will always be delayed by a week when it comes back to Beijing.Wang Shijie finally learned the news of Lin Meizhu, the palace in Fengtian had dismissed all the palace maids, and Lin Meizhu and more than 30 fire foxes were nowhere to be found.As soon as Chu Tianyue saw these more than thirty women with extraordinary temperaments, she immediately knew that they were looking for Lin Meizhu and his party.Apart from them, there is no woman who can kill people with a gun."
Count you on time, otherwise we will be ruined by that group of stinky men" The little sister behind Lin Meizhu looked at Chu Tianyue and couldn't stop laughing.Chu Tianyue is young and handsome, and this appearance is very popular with girls.Lin Meizhu's little sisters have also seen big scenes, but when they saw Chu Tianyue, they were still unconsciously attracted to him."
Let the girls be frightened, and the safety of the girls will be responsible for the next generation.If the girls are missing a hair, they will be left to the girls. ”Chu Tianyue had never dealt with so many women, and there was a trace of shyness on her handsome face."
General Chu, you are a bachelor now, and you still have a sweetheart, my little sister is unmarried, otherwise I will introduce you to one" Lin Meizhu looked at his youthful appearance, and couldn't help but ridicule him.The sisters behind her immediately hid their mouths and laughed, but Chu Tianyue looked like a girl, and they became hooligans who teased the little girl.Lin Meizhu was escorted all the way by Chu Tianyue and soon arrived safely in Beijing City.She hadn't met Wang Shijie yet, so she went to the presidential palace to meet Qiao Zhiqing.Wei Ziyou, as her superior, only heard his name but did not know his person.As soon as the two women met, they quickly chattered about each other.Wei Ziyou is familiar with people, and he gets along well with anyone.Lin Meizhu's personality is also on her temper, and the two don't know how many topics they can talk about together."
Brother Qiao, look who I brought to you" Wei Zi entered the study with a smile, followed by a thin young woman."
This is Lin Da Beauty" Qiao Zhiqing smiled, and when he saw the charm in the woman's eyes, he guessed in his heart."
Meizhu meets the president" Lin Meizhu saluted, with a royal etiquette posture, and a very beautiful posture."
It's good to come back, you have made great contributions to New China, I am thinking about how to reward you" Qiao Zhiqing waved her hand to get up, and the three of them sat down with each other around the mahogany round table in the room."
Your Excellency, I don't need any awards.If it weren't for you, I would have been ruined by the Hui people a long time ago" Lin Meizhu smiled faintly, and she didn't have much power and status.He has seen all the high-ranking officials and ministers, and all the glory and wealth are just passing clouds."
In this way, I will be a matchmaker, say a family business for you, and reward you for your merits.What do you think of this suggestion" Qiao Zhiqing talked directly about the matter, wanting to solve the marriage of Wang Shijie and Lin Meizhu in advance."
Your Excellency is what the President says."
Lin Meizhu naturally knew that Qiao Zhiqing was talking about her and Wang Shijie, her little face flushed, and then she hung her head."
Well, Miss Wei won't say much about me.When you and Shijie fell in love, I insisted on separating you.Now that you're back, let's take the opportunity to renew this marriage. ”Qiao Zhiqing likes Lin Meizhu's tranquil personality very much, he doesn't want Wang Shijie to have a woman around him who likes to compete for fame and power."
Mi-joo thanked the president."
Lin Meizhu couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, and when she heard Qiao Zhiqing's promise with her own ears, her worried heart was also relieved.Mr.
Wang's uncle is now the Minister of Defense, and he is also a high-ranking Vice Minister of Defense.Lin Meizhu was always worried that the Wang family would underestimate her identity and hinder her marriage to Wang Shijie.With Qiao Zhiqing's words, she can also feel at ease.A month after Lin Meizhu came back, his marriage with Wang Shijie was successfully held.Because she didn't have a mother's family, she recognized Qiao Zhiqing as her brother-in-law.Her family has been looted by the Hui people, and she is left alone.Qiao Zhiqing also values this point, and wants to make the relationship between the Qiao family and the Wang family closer.After the settlement of the Kwantung issue, the territory of New China expanded nearly a quarter of its territory to the north.The Russian Far Eastern Affairs Bureau kept sending news to the Tsar, but Russia was so overwhelmed by the situation in Europe that it was powerless to stop the deterioration of the situation in the Far East.The Polish ambassador had just informed Qiao Zhiqing of the situation in Europe, and France was indeed as Qiao Zhiqing had expected.After the beginning of spring, Prussia conquered military fortresses one after another, and finally suffered a great defeat in the Battle of Sedan, and even the emperor of the French Empire, Napoleon III, was captured by Prussia.Prussia took advantage of this war to unify the northern and southern states and form the German Federal State.Polish President Von Berg made overtures to the Federal Republic of Germany early on because of Qiao Zhiqing's reminder, and assisted Prussia in defending against the attack of Austria-Hungary during the Franco-Prussian War.After the establishment of the German Confederation, the first country to establish formal diplomatic relations was Poland.Poland also reaped a lot of benefits from this, receiving a large amount of weapons and ammunition from Germany.After this war, France suffered a great loss of national strength and could no longer control the situation on the European continent.Therefore, he abandoned the policy of dominating the European continent and instead allied with Great Powers such as Britain and Russia to jointly prevent the rise of the German Empire.However, these subtle changes have not yet affected New China, and after Qiao Zhiqing settled the affairs of the Kanto region, he focused on India.Du Wenxiu has been tossing in India for more than a year, and his power has increased instead of decreasing, and he has become more and more powerful.In order to deal with Du Wenxiu, Britain continued to increase its troops in India.At present, there are nearly 100,000 marines stationed in India, and there are more than 30 ironclad ships, all of which are large ships of more than 5,000 tons.The balance of power in South Asia was upset in one fell swoop, and even Burma was affected.Skirmishes continue to break out in the border areas between India and Myanmar.The British army, which had retreated to India, had now re-advanced its bridgehead into Bengal.The British army made it clear that it was testing the bottom line of the Huaxing army, and it was also to regain British interests in the Far East.The anger in Qiao Zhiqing's heart can be imagined, how Britain and France dealt with China, when they entered the city of Beijing, they committed all the evil things they could.Qiao Zhiqing tolerated everywhere, and even gave preferential treatment to the British team captured in Japan, just to let the British know what was good and bad, and advance and retreat clearly.But the British not only showed no mercy, but pressed forward step by step, once again revealing their true colors as bandits.Qiao Zhiqing still lacked something in his hand, and with this kind of thing, he could let go and fight with the British.This thing is nothing else, it is a tire made of rubber.Now the countries of Southeast Asia are vigorously promoting the cultivation of rubber trees, a plant native to South America, which has also opened up a second home in Southeast Asia.The hot and humid climate of Southeast Asia is more important than the growth of rubber trees in South America.Qiao Zhiqing handed over the matter to the National Academy of Sciences for joint research and development, and after more than two years of continuous practice, he finally developed a complete set of industrial technology for rubber production."
Brother Qiao, Xu Shou, president of the National Academy of Sciences, wants you to visit the tires they just produced, when do you have time to go" Wei Ziyou reported sweetly to Qiao Zhiqing.Qiao Zhiqing handed over the matter to Wei Ziyou at the beginning.Now that there has been a breakthrough in things, Wei Ziyou can't wait to run over."
Go now, you go down immediately and let Wang Wu prepare a carriage" Qiao Zhiqing was worried about how to deal with the British army, as soon as Wei Ziyou's words fell, a trace of surprise immediately appeared on his face."
Okay, Brother Qiao, don't be impatient, I'll go down and make arrangements."
Wei Ziyou nodded, trotted out of the door and went down to make arrangements.The National Academy of Sciences is Qiao Zhiqing's latest unit, specializing in scientific research and development, bringing together people from all over the world with all kinds of wonderful ideas.As a result, Xu Shou was also transferred from Nanjing to Beijing.Anyone with a talent for invention can turn their fantasies into reality here, and the state also provides special funding for scientific research.Xu Shou was the first president of the National Academy of Sciences, a little-known craftsman who ushered in the highest peak of his life's career.He was like Maxima meeting Bole, devoting his limited life to scientific research.Qiao Zhiqing arrived at the door of the National Academy of Sciences, and Xu Shou had already taken the academicians out to greet him in person."
President, welcome to the National Academy of Sciences" Qiao Zhiqing got out of the carriage, Xu Shou took the lead to greet him, and shook hands with Qiao Zhiqing excitedly."
Lao Xu, you don't have to be polite, what I want to see now is the rubber tire you developed."
Qiao Zhiqing patted Xu Shou's shoulder, his face full of eagerness."
Good, good.President, let's go meet you" Xu Shou nodded again and again, and led Qiao Zhiqing to the laboratory of the National Academy of Sciences.This laboratory is set up for the development of rubber products, and the laboratory displays a variety of rubber products for experiments.Qiao Zhiqing even saw the condom here, this great invention, of course, he could only think of it.In this era, medicine was still very backward, and the average family could not afford to raise many children.However, the method of contraception is still very backward, so that it is very inconvenient to come up with all kinds of strange methods.Qiao Zhiqing believes that this great invention will soon be like viagra and become a best-selling product all over the world.In the center of the laboratory is a model of a tire, which is also designed according to the simple drawings provided by Qiao Zhiqing.There is already a basic outline of the tire of later generations, which is divided into two parts, the inner tube and the outer tire, and the middle hub is made of steel."
Look, President, this is the tire model that we just developed.If it is mass-produced, it will be twice as large as the current model. ”Xu Shou pointed to the model of the tire and explained it to Qiao Zhiqing in detail as he spoke, and then asked someone to throw it to the ground with his hands.The tire retains its irreplaceable elasticity and bounces back all at once.In the next test, Xu Shou also demonstrated the speed comparison of rubber tires, steel tires, and wooden tires for Qiao Zhiqing.Because of its elasticity, rubber tires greatly reduce the friction with the ground, and the speed is almost three or four times that of the last two tires."
Are there any other problems now?"
Qiao Zhiqing's excitement was overflowing, but he still kept calm, not greedy for merit, and wanted to improve all the problems."
There are still a lot of problems, the main problem of rubber is still focused on wear, the president, please follow me to the outdoor test site to inspect, you can know the problem at a glance" Xu Shou stretched out his hand and made a gesture and invited Qiao Zhiqing to a large outdoor experimental site.The proving ground, which is located near Beijing's Yanshan Mountain, was used to test weapons and rapid-fire guns used by the navy.Qiao Zhiqing looked from a distance, and there were big circles painted with white paint on the hillside.These circles were the targets for testing the power of the artillery, which had been bombarded with bumps.Xu Shou waved his hand at the experimenter in front of him, and the two and a half young men quickly pulled up a cannon with a thick bowl mouth.Underneath this cannon are the latest rubber tires."
Look, President, the groove in this tire has just been ground up recently.Although the rubber we have developed has improved the tensile properties, it has greatly increased the wear rate.I've been working day and night lately to address this wear rate.Otherwise, if the artillery is installed, the tires will be scrapped in less than a month. ”Xu Shou introduced it to Qiao Zhiqing very seriously, and he couldn't tolerate a little imperfection in the product."
Then please Dean Xu, this kind of tire is related to the survival of our country and the United Kingdom.As long as we have this kind of thing, artillery can maintain extremely strong mobility.Before the artillery of the foreign devils had set up their positions, they were completely annihilated. ”Qiao Zhiqing appreciated his rigorous attitude, but still reminded him of the importance of this kind of tire.It is not a plaything, but an important tool to completely make the army run rampant
