Red Alert 1895: Chapter 455 work report

After more than a month of long-distance travel, Wang Guorui finally led a group of people from Europe to the Mediterranean through the North Atlantic, then passed the Suez Canal all the way through the Strait of Malacca, and then returned to Taiwan. But now it is June of 1898 AD, and Wang Guorui has spent more than half a year visiting Europe. The leaders of this country and region visited abroad for more than half a year at a time, which was obviously rare in ancient times. In particular, Taiwan is still a separatist force. If their leaders go out for half a year, this will easily cause a power vacuum on the island, and then cause a struggle for power. But Wang Guorui was not worried, because he had the military power in his hands, so he didn't have to worry that they would cause too many things. And even if some people want to fan the flames, it is impossible, because Wang Guorui not only has Zheng Hong's leader in the political and industrial system, but also Red Police soldiers as most of the low-level non-commissioned officers, which is enough for them to guarantee that there will be no problems. up.

"Welcome Lord Wang back!" Ouyang Xuan said proactively.

"Ouyang, thanks to you for this period of time, without you, my visit for more than half a year would not be safe!" Wang Guorui said.

Ouyang Xuan immediately said modestly: "It's thanks to Mr. Wang, everyone respects Mr. Wang, so that I can pretend to be a tiger! And, congratulations to Mr. Wang for getting married again, and the woman is the Queen of the Netherlands!"

Ouyang Xuan spoke very modestly, and she had to say that she was a "fox pretending to be a tiger". If he was not humble, then Wang Guorui might suspect that he had some kind of ambition in the future. So as a courtier. You must be humble. If you have credit, it is the leader's fault. If you make a mistake, you must take the initiative to take the blame. This is what makes a good servant. As long as this is achieved, any leader will like it.

And Taiwan Island was shocked by Wang Guorui's visit to Europe this time, because Wang Guorui not only forced the Spaniards to cede the Philippines, but also took over the Queen of the Netherlands, and ceded such a large area as a dowry. It was a blast. Since ancient times, the Central Plains countries have sent out to make peace. But now Wang Guorui not only forced the other queen to marry, but also made them both cede so much land as dowry. This is simply too refreshing. And many people think that the Dutch can't beat them, so they are forced to marry the queen, so that the military and civilians in Taiwan also feel a bit honorable. After all, it is of course a good thing to be able to marry a foreign queen.

"Okay. Tell me about what happened in Taiwan during the six months I left?" Wang Guorui asked.

Soon, Wang Guorui was also making preparations in the Governor's Mansion, listening to the reports of the military and political officials. After all, I have been away for half a year, and the places controlled by Taiwan will definitely change. In this era, communication is not very good, and telegrams are not suitable for transmitting too many messages. Telegrams are only used to transmit important messages, and ordinary messages are not returned. Therefore, Wang Guorui also has to listen to everyone's reports, and then he can know what changes he has made and let himself know.

"Master Wang. Since we conquered the major islands in the South Seas, we have successfully developed and utilized these islands gradually. Our first step is to develop Kalimantan Island. At present, most of the people going there are agriculture-based. The industry in Kalimantan is still relatively poor. Because the resources in Kalimantan are relatively small, we have not yet developed large-scale development. According to what you said, Mr. Wang, the strategy we adopt is to develop rich mines first, and then reserve Lean mines, so that we can get resources as soon as possible." Ouyang Xuan said.

Wang Guorui nodded and said: "Yes, we must first develop rich ore. It is easy to mine rich ore, and the technology required is not so complicated. So we develop rich ore first. As for those poor ore that can be left to our descendants, future technology It will definitely become more and more advanced, and then they can develop the means to mine lean ore, so that they can continue to mine lean ore.”

Of course, Wang Guorui knew that his generation must develop rich mines first, and leave poor mines for future generations to develop. This is also a method that is common all over the world. Technology is developing more and more, so they will definitely be able to obtain a lot of technological development in the future, so that they can gradually obtain high technology to develop those lean mines. Wang Guorui knew that Kalimantan Island had relatively few mineral resources, and more of them were poor mines, so there was no need to mine Kalimantan Island so quickly.

"Currently, the first batch of our development is the Philippines. The Philippines not only has a lot of copper mines, but also a lot of gold mines, and even many other non-ferrous metals. There are even a lot of oil resources. We can use these resources to develop Taiwan. economy. And now we can achieve continuous development. Enterprises on our island no longer want to import resources from foreign countries at high prices, and many factories have taken the opportunity to expand their production scale. A large number of workers have also started to have jobs, technicians There are also a lot of schools. With the three-year construction, the technical school has entered the formality, and those technical workers who were not good at teaching students have been reassigned to their jobs. The remaining technical teachers They are all selected from among their students."

Of course, Wang Guorui knew who those Red Police engineers were training technicians. Those guys could do things well, but if they were asked to teach, it would be a big problem. But fortunately, it has finally come through now, and finally a group of technicians can serve as teachers in the technical school, which can be regarded as a successful solution to the problem of teacher resources for them. And those red police engineers will also be sent to work again, so that they can make good use of their abilities, and they will not go to those things that educate students, which is simply misleading their children.

"Also, when we mine, we can give priority to the use of indigenous people. Especially those who have no technology, require a lot of physical strength, and can be handed over to the indigenous people to do dangerous work. Of course, there are some relatively easy jobs for those technical jobs. , then we can try our best to arrange for our Chinese. We have just arrived in Nanyang, and those immigrants urgently need a job, and if they have a stable job, they can all settle down."

And then, it's the army's report, and the army's report is relatively simple.

"My lord, according to the report of the military affairs department of our general staff, we have recruited all the soldiers, and our army of 200,000 is complete. Ordinary infantry is easy to solve, but many technical non-commissioned officers are not able to solve it. We lack There are a large number of technical non-commissioned officers, and we have already asked the people below to set up some non-commissioned officer schools, so that technical non-commissioned officers can be trained as soon as possible." Hu Wei said.

Wang Guorui also nodded, because the non-commissioned officer really wanted to train himself. In the past, soldiers from the Red Alert system were relied on as technical non-commissioned officers, which would definitely not work. The reason why there was no training before was because the training period for a technical non-commissioned officer would take several years, otherwise it would be impossible to master the use and maintenance techniques of various weapons. In the past few years, we have been fighting. Naturally, it is impossible to gain too much experience in training non-commissioned officers. Those technical non-commissioned officers are mainly recruited from the red police system. But as long as they can start training non-commissioned officers now, they will definitely be able to obtain a large number of technical non-commissioned officers in the future, so that they can gradually enrich their troops. In the future, engineers, artillery, automobiles, etc. will gradually have their own technical non-commissioned officers, and the types of non-commissioned officers will inevitably become more and more complete in the future.

"My lord, our navy is relatively weak at present. Ye Zugui, chief of staff of the navy, and I have complained many times. Depressed. Besides, some people said behind their backs..." Hu Wei said hesitantly.

"What?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Sir Wang, you love beauties and don't love Jiangshan, and you actually gave our important weapon to others for the sake of a Dutch queen. And, you are said to be fascinated by the vixen of the Dutch queen, so..." Hu Wei still hesitated Said.

Wang Guorui was speechless, and the following actually started to spread his own rumors. Obviously, this will definitely be distorted by many people. Because I gave this battleship to the Netherlands as a betrothal gift, naturally it must make many people uncomfortable~www.mtlnovel.com~ After all, it is impossible for such an important thing to prevent the army from twisting their mouths. Especially for the navy, warships are their weapons. In the past, they were taught to regard weapons as their own brothers, so now these navies are obviously very dissatisfied with Wang Guorui taking the warship as a dowry gift.

"Immediately let the political officials of the navy do their ideological work and let them know that it is a popular trend in the world to sell warships to each other. Moreover, we will all have more advanced warships that can be used in the future, and we can have The most advanced. And this Sovereign-class battleship is no longer the most advanced. We will have more advanced battleships for us to use in the future. One can support many Sovereign-class battleships. Even, we will continue to use our All the battleships are sold, so that we can get enough funds to purchase new warships!" Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui knew that the battleship business was very profitable, especially since he could manufacture one-tenth of the price, which was even more profitable. But battleships in this era are not easy to sell, because battleships are completely equivalent to nuclear weapons of later generations, will nuclear weapons of later generations be sold casually? Therefore, battleships are prone to imbalance in shipbuilding strength. Looking at the shipbuilding competition provoked by Wang Guorui in Europe this time, it can be seen that this battleship is very sensitive, and it is easy to lose balance and cause problems. Wang Guorui could only choose to be patient, and chose not to sell the battleship easily in exchange for funds. But in order to build the new sword-class battleship, this will allow them to sell the old battleship. (to be continued)
