1890 King of Southeast Asia
Chapter 465: Arms Business (Part 2)
At night, Lin Pingzhi and Master Yuan sat on the dining table.
Beiyang was accompanied by Xu Juren and the Sanjie of Beiyang. Lin Pingzhi also picked up the four men in his men.
After three patrols, the dishes had five flavors, and Master Yuan coughed.
"Master Lin, do you give me a bottom, when will Nanhua interfere? We can also prepare for the heavy grain and grass, and we can't let you suffer every time!" Xu Juren laughed very brilliantly.
"Interference?" One of Lin Ping was stunned, and the chopsticks of the vegetables were collected.
Nanhua has no heritage, and he is not so particular about eating. He is only invited by officials in the Qing Empire as such a complete seat.
The taste is really delicious, so every time someone invites to the banquet, he really eats. After all, the top chef is also difficult to find, and it is even more difficult to ask.
"How is the front line of your country? When I set off, the war ended. When I arrived at the Beijing Division, I couldn't contact the country. I didn't know the front line." Lin Pingzhi put down his chopsticks and started talking nonsense.
As soon as he got off at Beijing Division, he received a detailed news and learned about the shortage of military weapons in the Qing Empire.
"Uh ..." Xu Ju people didn't know how to say.
"The pirates have been blocked by Fengtian East, but the pirates are urgent, and the reinforcements in the hurry are not yet in place. "Duan Zhiquan quickly asked in a hurry.

"In other words, Fengtian can't keep it?" Lin Pingzhi was surprised.
This is really surprising. It was so you can say so, and learned it.
"Our army is supporting ..." Duan Zhiquan also wanted to say, but was interrupted by Master Yuan.
"Forget Zhiquan, let me say."
"Regent Wang Paining and Wang Tongbing, transferred the three towns of Beiyang, and regulated five associations from the two rivers and Huguang.
The three towns in Beiyang have been prepared for opening up, but King Ning will wait until the five collaborative arrival from the south before they are willing to set off. Fengtian ... it should not be so long. "Master Yuan said.
"It's hard to do." One of Lin Ping was embarrassed.
After half a noise, Lin Pingzhi continued:
"The last time I could take over Japan, one is that our navy is strong, regardless of the quantity and quality completely crushed Japan;
The second is to connect the country, with the trend of Britain and France, forcing Japan and Russia, cutting their foreign aid, so that it has to accept it;

The third is that the country's upper and lower hearts and the soldiers lived. Master Yuan recruited tens of thousands of people at that time. It was training. The new troops of various provinces were mobilized. The Japanese national strength declined, losing foreign aid, and dragging down. "
One of Lin Ping softened a glass of wine,
"In this way, we threatened with the war, and Japan barely compromised and returned to North Korea, but the situation that the people and the people and the people and people no longer exist."
Several people in Beiyang looked at each other, and they even knew this for the first time.
"The Japanese Navy has surpassed the navy?" The people who saw that they saw their own side were contemplating and then stubbornly.
"This is not the same, otherwise the Japanese have began to war with the greed of the Japanese." Lin Pingzhi laughed.
"However, in recent years in Japan's vigorous development of the navy, the main tonnage of the navy has reached half of us, and the number has reached 70%of us.
In addition to the north, South China also needs to be on duty in the vast waters of the East and West. Like this time, South China can only take out three battleships to deal with the Japanese provocation. "
Hearing this, several people had no words.
Lin Pingzhi's attitude is that Nanhua will not intervene in this battle, which makes several people suffer.
I was afraid that Nanhua wanted a high price, and this price could not afford it.
I was afraid that Nanhua really let go of it, how can this battle be played alone with the Youth Empire?
There is still a hint of darkness in my heart. If Nanhua does not intervene, wouldn't it be the best power as the best Beiyang?
"Does your country intend to restrict Japan? You and we are also the state of brothers. Japanese wolf ambitions. I heard that they are still seeking new domestic warships.
In the future, Japan can be described as the confidant of your brother and my brother. Master Lin also asked Lord Lin to report to China and make more plans! "Master Yuan laughed very barely.
Because of the continuous enhancement of South China, the right to speak on the issue of trade and international peace has gradually increased. In recent years, the Western exploitation of Chinese people has converged a lot, and the days of the Qing Empire have been better.
After Lin Pingzhi said that Nanhua did not intend to intervene and gave a reason, he made a comparison of strength.
Ten years ago, the Qing Empire Navy was able to fight with Japan. Just in the past ten years, the Qing Empire Navy could only guard the port under the cover of the shore to prevent guns, stretching.
The same is true of the Army. After the establishment of the six town of Beiyang, the old demon began to doubt him. He has been restricting the development of Beiyang and ordered the establishment of a new army in all provinces.
It is good according to the balance, but there is no charter. Almost all provinces have started from scratch, and the new troops in several provinces have been built until the past two years.

In Japan, it can pull 600,000 Hyundai Army at any time. This is the first number of soldiers after Japan's mobilization during the Japan -Russia War.
In terms of weapons and equipment, logistical supply, the Qing Empire is not as good as Japan, and even the military expenses. Why is the movement slow? Because it is not enough to issue a fee.
According to convention, after the war, double pay is issued, and additional travel expenses are also issued for the transfer of troops. Otherwise, why fight to the death? For the ideal?
It is precisely because he sees these clearly that Lord Yuan uses emotional offensive and directly expresses his approach to Nanhua, hoping that Nanhua will take action, even if it is to restrict the Japanese.
After all, if Nanhua does not go, the only one who can go in the end is Beiyang. And Beiyang's logistics supply also depends on Nanhua.
"Lord Yuan, this time Japan and the United States jointly put pressure on Nanhua, can you see it clearly?" Lin Pingzhi said calmly.
"Britain and France..."
"Britain and France are busy dealing with the Germans. We will try our best to help you, but as before, sending troops directly is not possible for the time being. Not only the Japanese, but also the Americans, even the Russians are watching us." Lin Pingzhi answered.
"The Qing Empire can't rely on others this time, but I can show you a clear way."
"I would like to hear the details." Lord Yuan looked at Lin Pingzhi nervously.
Let me say it again. Although Zaixun is the general in charge, half of the troops under his command belong to Lord Yuan, which is also the majority of Lord Yuan's strength.
If he is damaged, the power of Beiyang will be greatly reduced, and his position as the military minister will really end, and it will be difficult to turn over.
"Cut off the sea and land, shrink the defense line, actively defend, train troops and prepare for war, and drag it out for a year or two. Japan can't afford to fight." Lin Pingzhi said easily.
"Alas~ How could I not know? But what can I do? The regent has just taken office and is young and energetic. This first fire must be burned on the Japanese. The fire is not strong enough, so don't let others put it out." Lord Yuan shook his head and pretended to be relaxed.
The remaining four Beiyang people also reacted, and there was another round of toasts.
"Master! The servant of the Xu Mansion came to report that there was an imperial decree that Master Xu was transferred to the governor of three provinces and took office with the army." While eating, the servant came to report.
"Where are the people?"
"It was Eunuch Jin who came. The young master of the Xu family received the imperial edict and went back to the palace."
"I know."
"Congratulations to Lord Xu on his promotion to governor." Lin Pingzhi was stunned, then raised his glass.
The Beiyang people raised their glasses and drank, but they did not look surprised.
"This was decided in advance, but I didn't expect the servants to find this place. Excuse me." Xu Juren said after drinking.
"I don't know if Nanhua can continue to provide military equipment and fodder this time. I will definitely not let you suffer a loss. All materials will be 10% higher than the last price, but... it will still be on credit and paid in installments." Lord Yuan asked.
Oh? Business is coming? And you are raising the price?
"Hey! How much does Lord Yuan want? Beiyang and our emperor still have some incense and incense, this matter can be discussed." Lin Pingzhi licked his lips, picked up the food with chopsticks, and pressed down the slightly upturned corners of his mouth.
During this period, he was crazy about money. Otherwise, he would not have accepted the sapphire. He was going to send it back and sell it. The money was split 50-50, half for the local government and half for their projects.
"It's mainly to replenish ammunition, especially shells, and a batch of rifles to replace damaged guns, as well as medicines, 50,000 doses of anti-inflammatory drugs, and what else?" Yuan Datou looked at the other people.
"If the defense is the main thing, why not add some machine guns?" Duan Zhiquan hesitated.
The reason for hesitation was that machine guns consumed too many bullets, which was too much pressure for Beiyang.
Moreover, the court did not attach importance to machine guns. Spending a lot on them would give Zaifeng and others something to talk about. They were staring at Beiyang's mistakes with wide eyes and preparing to settle accounts later.

"Yes, yes, yes, in a defensive battle, machine guns are extremely important. If used well, they are more useful than cannons." Feng Huafu said quickly.
"Then add machine guns. We must stop the Japanese first, otherwise everything will end." Lord Yuan said to Duan Zhiquan.
Lord Yuan saw clearly that even if Zaifeng wanted to negotiate, he would definitely consume Beiyang before negotiating. They had no way to retreat. Finding a retreat would be discussed after the war.
"According to the news from the Fengtian Army on the front line, Japan has large-caliber artillery. According to their description of the craters, the caliber of the artillery should be greater than 105 artillery. It is proper to buy some large-caliber artillery to fight against Japanese artillery." Xu Juren suddenly spoke.
"Lord Lin, I wonder what caliber artillery your country has?" Lord Yuan nodded and looked at Lin Pingzhi.
"Ready stock? The mobile ones are 203mm howitzers. I remember there are 6 ready stock." Lin Pingzhi said.
"Okay! Can you sell it to us?" Lord Yuan asked.
"Open for business, of course we can sell it." Lin Pingzhi smiled brightly.
"But I want to remind you, as far as I know, during the Russo-Japanese War, both sides mobilized 280mm howitzers, and the Japanese have a lot of this kind of gun."
"280mm?" Lord Yuan was stunned.
"Even if it is a permanent fortification, it can't withstand it without a cement layer of one and a half meters." Duan Zhiquan murmured.
"We have a batch of 305 guns removed by the navy, and there are also matching large movable gun mounts. If you defend layer by layer, you should have time to install them on the Shanhaiguan line." Lin Pingzhi earnestly suggested.
This was a failed study of the Nanhua Navy on coastal defense fortifications. In the hope of strengthening the movable coastal defense firepower, it was proposed to use a train to pull the gun mount so that the cannon can travel along the rails and can be quickly set up when it arrives at the place.
After the experiment, the navy felt that it was feasible and modified six guns, and then Liu Yiming discovered it and asked them why they didn't just build a railway gun...
So, the remaining artillery was transformed into railway guns, and the previous six guns were kept as they were because they had no value for transformation. Anyway, they were still usable.
However, it was better to sell them.
"Really!" Duan Zhiquan was excited. He was a big artilleryist.
"Ahem!" Lord Yuan felt very bitter. Isn't this giving others an opportunity to ask for a sky-high price?
"Of course, but for this batch of guns, the down payment must be increased from 30% to half. There is nothing we can do about it. Of course, we are happy to provide loans as usual."
"Let's talk about the price..." Lord Yuan was helpless. He really needed this batch of weapons, otherwise, the Japanese artillery would make them lose all morale.
