Chapter 453 Mercenaries

  After eating the banquet, Li Zhuzhu and his entourage left the luxurious mansion. Lei Xiaopeng led the crowd to the door. There was a trace of fear in the enthusiasm.

  This beating is really not light, it really sounds like a bell in the morning and a drum in the evening.

  Sitting at the door for a moment, Li Shuanzhu turned on his horse and waved hello, then galloped away with his men.

  Looking at the billowing smoke and dust, the reserve militia major Li Yong asked thoughtfully; "Chief Lei, what kind of character do you think this Officer Li is?"

"He is a loyal and pure minister, he does not form party for personal gains, does not lean towards any military hilltops, and cannot be drawn and corroded. This is the common trait of this group of rising young eagle school officers. They have their own firm beliefs, that is fanaticism. Worship Lord Earl."

  Lieutenant Colonel Lei Xiaopeng said that he sighed.

  I have been corrupted by money and become impure. If they do well, they may break away from the restrictions of Xi'an Town. And the group of people under them seem to have roots in the Horn of Africa and dedicated the rest of their lives to this vast land.

  Major Li Yong, as the leader of the smuggling trade line, has been unable to give up the huge interests in his hands. It is a decent solution to withdraw from the military system sadly. He immediately decided in his mind and looked at the others and said;

"Since we have retired from the army, we will do the smuggling business with peace of mind. We dare not make any more ideas for the soldiers in the garrison area. Brothers who have retired from active service can still be recruited. They have received professional military training. Many people have experienced the baptism of war. It is a pity to set up an armed **** guard with considerable combat effectiveness.

  Looking at it from a different perspective, it is possible to form a professional armed mercenary team and operate as a company. While escorting the smuggling ship, it can also lay a piece of its own.

  At that time, the space we can display will be too much. The so-called cross-sea will show the heroic qualities. It doesn't make sense for others to do it. We just can do it with courage.

  This is the scope allowed by the policy, and we can still use our weapons and do some business without the uniform.

  Our brothers are not short of money now. The number of retired officers and soldiers in Xi'an Town is as high as 1,000. Even if only half or one-third of them are recruited, that is a force that cannot be underestimated. "

  His words reinvigorated everyone's fighting spirit, and it makes sense to think about it.

  Armed mercenaries are a tradition in European and American countries. They are especially popular in Britain, Germany and the Nordic countries. They are African vultures looking for the rotten smell of war, chasing the smell of money, and hovering between large and small armed conflicts and wars.

  Although the reputation is not good, existence is truth.

  Queensland follows the British legal system and neither prohibits nor encourages the armed mercenary industry. The only prohibition is that the Queensland flag is not allowed, let alone the British flag. Regardless of the life or death of the government, it is the responsibility of the government.

  Lei Xiaopeng gave them a disappointed look, waved his hand and said; "You can discuss these things, the security area will not participate."

   "I'll wait until I know what's in it, and I will definitely not put Officer Lei into trouble."

"It’s good to know. I’m also one of the people who are under strict supervision. I have more than self-preservation and lack of wings. You were once my subordinates. I hope you all abide by the law. Now, the big guy doesn’t lack that little money. Today, Chief Li’s kind words have been heard, so I won’t say much. Everyone cherishes it."

  After finishing speaking, Lei Xiaopeng turned and returned to the luxurious mansion deep in the courtyard with a lonely expression.

  He can't get too involved with these things now, otherwise no amount of incense will be useful, Lord Earl is a decisive generation of heroes, how can he hesitate for his children.

  Lei Xiaopeng did not run to the headquarters of the African Expeditionary Force during these days, gave away a lot of money and property, and got some definite news from the Red Fort.

  African expedition team's merits and demerits, mistakes cannot obliterate the merits, the rewards should be rewarded, and the merits should be given, but don’t expect to be promoted to the street in a short time. It depends on the performance of the next step.

  At this sensitive moment, Lei Xiaopeng dare not make any extra moves. If he is misunderstood, it will be bad, which is tantamount to ruining his career!

   "I'll wait for Officer Lei to be sent off." Everyone saluted in unison.

Li Yong stood up straight, paused the whole jeweled cane carved from rhinoceros horns in his hand, and attracted everyone’s attention, and said, "Brothers, the so-called strike while the iron is hot, time does not wait. Today's heads are relatively uniform, the big guys are better off to me I went to the club to discuss and draw up the charter for the next step. Nowadays, there are frequent wars in West Asia, and large tracts of land in Africa are unowned. We are rich and powerful, and it may be possible to open the situation in this troubled time."

  "This statement is reasonable. If we can lay a large territory, I would like to enclose it at that time. Presumably, according to the temperament of Lord Earl, I have no chance to return to the center. Senior officials have to sit and horses to ride."

   "Well, then we have to plan well."

"I don't think there is anything to do in this poor place in Africa. These black buddies are all poor and dying. The infrastructure is zero. That is, the Ethiopian kingdom on the plateau in the northwest is a little bit like. Nowadays, the slave trade is not popular anymore, no matter how big it is. What's the use of this place? It's purely discounted sales."

  "Africa is not without good places, but the ones that are close enough either already have owners, or are barren and barren, and it is worth discussing to enter Africa. I don't think it is appropriate to attack West Asia. Anyway, the Ottoman Empire is almost lousy."

   "It sounds like something is going on, let's discuss it."

   "What are you waiting for, let's go!"

The men who were born in the army have always dared to think and do. A group of wealthy merchants who have been transformed from military officers boarded their luxury carriages and drove towards the luxury manor outside the town. At this moment, their mood was like a rock thrown into the calm lake. , The waves rolled again.

  China has always had no shortage of capable people and lofty people. Now these old Japanese officers have money and guns in their hands, and have experienced the baptism of war. Now they have been stimulated with ambitions, and it is really possible to stir up the situation in this area.

  History has never been determined by a single individual, but by social beings.

  Li Fushou created a free development space for the Chinese people in Queensland, created an equal and free social environment, introduced advanced technology and concepts from the Western steam industry era, and influenced a whole generation of people.

  Enable people's wisdom and look at the world.

Perhaps this is Li Fushou’s greatest contribution to the modern era. All overseas Chinese immigrants from Queensland have a pride in their hearts. It is the heart that has been condensed in the expansion of the territory time and time again, just like an invisible bond. All Chinese ethnic groups stay together to form a powerful group.

Li Shuanzhu never thought that what he said actually gave birth to a group of armed mercenaries across West Asia. After developing and growing, he recruited Huai and Hunan soldiers who had experienced war from the mainland. They developed and grown like a snowball, and their foothold in West Asia was really open. It's a big scene, this is something to do.
