Super dictator.

Wei Jichen walked out of the room refreshed, and Wang Shizhen and Li Yunfei hurried up to meet him. www

Several people walked into the hall, Li Yunfei saw Wei Jichen's face was full of smiles, he couldn't help being curious, and asked aloud: "Wei Shuai, could it be that your magic skills have increased greatly in the past two days?"

Wei Jichen rolled his eyes, and said helplessly, "Whether it's magical or not, you still believe in that. I'm just thinking about some things behind closed doors. During the two days I was away, nothing major happened?"

"It's a big deal!" Li Yunfei and Wang Shizhen replied in unison, then they looked at each other and laughed.

"Oh, what happened? Pinqing, it's up to you." Wei Jichen picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said with a smile.

Wang Shizhen leaned forward slightly, and couldn't wait to say: "Wei Shuai, we have already made plans for the expansion of the Liao Army. The Military Aircraft Department has decided that I will recruit the 32nd Battalion for the Liao Army."

Wei Jichen was overjoyed when he heard the news. The reason why he kept provoking the Russians was not only to let the world see through the Russian tricks, but also had another purpose. Of course, he took the opportunity to expand his power. Now it seems that this move has gone well. good.

"Well, not bad." Wei Jichen was not overwhelmed by the surprise, but instructed: "This time the recruitment will be handled by the Battalion Office, because this time the recruits are recruits, so the physical condition can be relaxed a bit , but there is no room for any change in the fact that opium smokers are not recruited."

"Yes, Wei Shuai." Li Yunfei and Wang Shizhen quickly responded, Li Yunfei was the general manager of the camp affairs department, and Wang Shizhen was the staff officer of the camp affairs staff department. Since Wei Jichen said to hand it over to the camp affairs department, he was handing it over to them.

Opium, this heavy word came out of Wei Jichen's mouth again. Now opium is flooding. If you haven't seen it yourself, you can't imagine it at all.

When Zhang Zhidong was the governor of Shanxi, he once wrote a letter to a friend: Jin's troubles are not in disasters but in smoke.There are six out of ten people in the four townships, eight out of ten people in the cities, and almost ten out of ten people in the three types of officials and soldiers.Everyone is barren, and every family is dying.The majestic Jinyang, a scene of miserable decline, is like a ghost country. No matter how to make a difference, if you keep going like this, the country will be lost, so what.

Although he is talking about Shanxi, the rest of China is not much better.

Whether opium is prohibited or not depends on the local officials themselves. Zhang Zhidong and Li Hongzhang have both carried out anti-smoking campaigns, but the effect is not great. , is the main source of local fiscal revenue.

Wei Jichen is now implementing an anti-smoking policy in Liaodong, strictly prohibiting opium trading, closing down opium dens, etc. He does not need this kind of income, but at this time he has another idea, that is, cigarettes, the input cost of flue-cured tobacco It's not big, and it's easy to make. There are also cigarette factory machines in the system for sale. It only has 3000 prestige points. This thing must sell well, and it can generate income for farmers. Why not do it.

"Wei Shuai, there is another matter that has a great impact on Liaodong." Wang Shizhen said with a complicated expression on his face.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Wei Jichen asked curiously.

"Didn't the Russian fleet wreck in our Bohai Sea a few days ago?" Wang Shizhen also put a smile on his old-fashioned face, and continued: "The Russians suspected that the Japanese did it, but they couldn't find any evidence, so they took advantage of the North Korean People's resentment towards Japan led the king of Joseon to flee to the Russian embassy, ​​announced the dissolution of the North Korean cabinet, and re-established a pro-Russian cabinet. The Japanese power in North Korea was almost uprooted by the Russians. Both sides are now fully motivated , I am afraid that within three or four years, there will be a war between the two countries."

Well, when Wei Jichen decided to annihilate the Russian fleet, he did intend to blame and provoke, but he didn't expect the effect to be better than he expected.

The Russo-Japanese War in the later generations was in 1904. The two sides fought for the Northeast of China. But in fact, after the end of the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese government had already determined its goal and was determined to defeat the Russians. The Japanese used most of the Sino-Japanese Indemnity In terms of combat readiness, the army and navy are also training against the Russians. In order to compete for hegemony in East Asia, the conflicts between the two countries are irreconcilable.

Hearing that Japan and Russia were fighting each other in North Korea at this time, Wei Jichen suddenly had a thought in his mind, that is, whether the Japan-Russia War can be brought forward a few years, and the battlefield, of course, cannot be the Northeast, but North Korea, Japan and Russia The advance of the war will be of great benefit to China.

In the original history, the Russo-Japanese War took place after the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China. The damage caused to China by the Eight-Power Allied Forces was unparalleled. In the Allied Forces, both Russians and Japanese served as the main force. It even took the opportunity to occupy the three eastern provinces.

If the two countries can break out of war in advance, it may be possible to avoid the invasion of China by the Eight-Power Allied Forces. Even if it cannot be avoided, it will be much easier to deal with, because no matter who wins the war between the two countries, it will take some time to recover. Besides, Wei Jichen can also profit from it Woolen cloth.

It’s just that in the original history, the direct fuse of the Russo-Japanese War was that Russia sent troops to occupy Northeast China, which seriously affected Japan’s interests. Now, although the conflicts between the two countries are irreconcilable, they are both in tolerance, and want to cause the two countries to go to war. It still takes a lot of planning.

Seeing Wei Jichen pondering, Li Yunfei and Wang Shizhen didn't say anything to interrupt, but drank tea silently.

"The Japanese are the best at fighting the Russians, but strengthening one's own strength is the kingly way. Yunfei, how is the preparation of the Liaodong Armed Forces Academy?" Wei Jichen asked after a while.

The predecessor of the Liaodong Armed Forces Academy was the Dingliao Army Suiying Academy. In order to expand its scale and turn it into a military academy worthy of the name, Wei Jichen divided the Suiying Academy and followed the school regulations and training regulations of Western military academies. And Wei Jichen has already discussed with Liu Buchan that this military academy also recruits naval cadets.

Of course, there is a successful case. Wei Jichen will naturally be the principal of the military academy after its establishment. However, the scale of the first few years must be smaller, mainly recruiting students from Liaodong and Northeast China. When the time is right, it will naturally Students are recruited from all over the country.

"If we go back to Wei Shuai, the address of the school has already been investigated, because Wei Shuai thinks that the Military Academy will recruit both army and maritime students, so we have selected a piece of land near the sea in the outskirts of Dalian, and we will be able to break ground immediately." Li Yunfei replied with a smile.

"Well, what I'm worried about now is teaching and teachers. I will contact Admiral Liu and ask him to contact more maritime talents. You can also contact Fuzhou Shipping Academy to hire more talents in this field."

The Fuzhou Shipping School belongs to the Fuzhou Shipping Bureau. The Fuzhou Shipping Bureau was severely damaged during the Sino-French War. At this time, it has not yet recovered. A large number of teachers and teachers in the Shipping School are struggling. Wei Jichen believes that as long as a little contact You can hire them in one click, and as for the talents in the army, you don't have to worry about them. There are so many talents in the Dingliao army, are you afraid that you won't be able to find them?

Wei Jichen explained some more things to them before ending the conversation. However, Wei Jichen did not leave, but waited for Mengzi's arrival in the hall.

Now Wei Jichen has made Unit A not like a special forces team, but a spy organization. The new members of Unit A have already passed the test, and they have been training for more than two months, waiting for Wei Jichen to assign them Things are done.

"Wei Shuai." Mengzi walked in respectfully and bowed. He now admires Wei Jichen from the bottom of his heart. Most of the training content and regulations of the special forces team were formulated by Wei Jichen. Sometimes Mengzi really wants to split Wei Jichen. Take a look with your head, to see what this handsome man has in his head, he can come up with countless unimaginable training methods.

"Is Haicheng all right now?" Wei Jichen pointed to the chair and told him to sit down, then asked.

Mengzi touched his forehead honestly, and replied with a smile: "In Wei Shuai's words, it is changing with each passing day, and every day is different. People from the Northeast and even from all over the country have gathered there, ready to flex their muscles. The population of the city is More and more, almost surpassing Shengjing."

Because the Anshan iron mine is not far from Haicheng, when the iron factory is established, it will become a heavy industrial area with unlimited business opportunities, and the commercial atmosphere in Liaodong is already very strong due to Wei Jichen's drive, so all the businessmen are on the wind.

Wei Jichen was very satisfied when he heard this, and asked, "Did you bring the list?"

"It's already brought, please take a look at Wei Shuai." Mengzi took out a thick roster from his arms and handed it to Wei Jichen.

This list is very confidential, so this time Meng Zi personally brought it from Haicheng to Lushun and handed it to Wei Jichen.

Wei Jichen took it over and looked through it carefully. The list included not only the names of the new members, but also the achievements of the new members since their training, the instructor's evaluation of them, and the skills they mastered.

Even according to Wei Jichen's request, they have already been classified. This classification is based on countries and regions.

The first part says people who suggest going to the Russian Far East. The Russian Far East refers to Primorsky, Amur, Siberia and other places. There are a large number of Russians in these places, such as Khabarovsk, Yaksa, Vladivostok and other cities. Many Chinese live there, and it borders China, so it's not too difficult to get in.

There are as many as 100 people in a long list of names, which shows that Wei Jichen attaches great importance and vigilance to the Russians. The top twenty members can basically understand Russian. When they go to places like Russia, there is no need to How long does it take to get used to it.

The second part is the members who suggest going to Japan and North Korea, and there are more than a hundred people.

The third part suggests going to European and American countries, and the fourth part suggests going to Southeast Asian countries.

Almost 400 of the [-] people in the a team went to the above places.

The last part is staying in the country. The most important thing for these people is the issue of loyalty, because Wei Jichen wants to send members of the A troop to collect military intelligence, economic and technological intelligence from the big powers, and he can easily persuade them with national righteousness. Lurking in the country, collecting intelligence from other armies and places, some people will inevitably be puzzled.
