Rebirth of the Northern Giants

"Did something happen?" Bush rolled up the quilt, got up impatiently, picked up the shotgun hanging on the wall, tiptoed lightly, and walked down the stairs step by step to the hall.

The peaceful small courtyard made Bush feel a little worried, where did the mercenaries go, and there was no movement at all.

When he went down the stairs and turned around, he saw a black figure suddenly rushing towards him. Bush was shocked, and before he could shoot, the dagger of the other party had already pierced his chest.

"You, who are you?" Bush asked intermittently unwillingly.

"Go to heaven and ask God." Soi Ying said coldly.

Three days later, on the streets of Ohio, USA, a newspaper was still in the small villa of the Wright Brothers.

Wilbur Wright, who had just woken up and was playing sports on the lawn, picked up the newspaper on the ground and read it slowly.

However, it didn't take long for him to be more than half awake.

"According to our newspaper, on the evening of October 10, several homicides occurred in Havara, Cuba. The eight victims were all American citizens. So far, the Spanish authorities have not given any explanation. This is a great loss to our American nation. The contempt is because the incident is related to the Spanish government, handing over the murderer to obtain justice for the innocent American citizens who died. This newspaper also learned that the violent rule of the executioner Velaire has caused the death of hundreds of Cuban people. Weller's inhumane actions are simply against the will of God, and this newspaper calls on good American citizens to unite and demand that the government immediately recognize Cuba's 'rebel government' and make decisions for those poor Cubans."

In just one day, the American people learned that eight Americans were killed in Cuba, so they marched and demonstrated, calling on the US government to take immediate measures to sanction Spain.

In the Wright Brothers studio, Feng Ruzheng was secretly copying the materials. He was serious in his work and did not give way to the Wright Brothers in terms of aircraft research ability. Therefore, the two brothers valued him very much.

However, Feng Ru was obviously not suitable to be a thief's buddy, he just felt his heart beating non-stop.His eyes even looked at the door from time to time, feeling guilty. Fortunately, this was the last time he did it, because the higher-ups had given him new instructions to go back to the country.

Boom, boom, boom.

Suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps at the door.

Feng Ru quickly put the copied materials into his arms, and then looked at the documents on the table pretending not to care.

After the door creaked, Catherine walked in with solemn steps.

"Feng, I knew you were here. Look at you. You are still working even when you are resting. Feng, come out with me." Catherine said with a heavy face.

"Going out?" Feng Ru said in confusion.

"Yes, let's go to the parade together, for the compatriots who unfortunately died in Cuba." Catherine urged: "Hurry up, brothers have already gone, and now a lot of people have gathered on the street, we ask the government to punish the Spanish executioners. "

Feng Ru was stunned, the Americans went to the parade after death, this is too absurd, but Feng Ru still appreciates this kind of freedom in the United States, when his own country can change the government's policy through the people.

Catherine looked at Feng Ru dazzled, as if crying if he disagreed.

Feng Ru stood up, sighed and said, "Miss Catherine, I'm going back to China soon."

Feng Ru's words really made Catherine forget about the parade for a moment, and said in shock: "You are going back to China, why haven't I heard you say it before."

"I'm sorry, my motherland needs me." Feng Ru didn't dare to look into Catherine's eyes, and the affection he showed for the little girl could be seen even if he was a stone man, let alone he wasn't.

"Then, are you coming back?" Catherine asked eagerly.

Feng Ru shook her head and said softly: "I don't know, maybe I will come back, maybe I will spend my whole life on the other side of the ocean."

Catherine couldn't hold back her tears anymore, she stepped forward and threw herself into Feng Ru's arms, sobbing, "Feng, I don't allow you to go, for me, can't you stay?"

Feng Ru raised her hand, put it down again, and finally touched Catherine's hair, and said firmly: "Catherine, I'm sorry, I want to bring back everything I've learned to my motherland. Although she is behind the United States, she is It's beautiful and warm."

Catherine suddenly raised her head, wiped her tears, and said, "I've decided, Feng, I want to go to China with you."

Feng Ru was startled, and looked down at the serious Catherine, knowing that she was not joking.

"Thank you, Miss Catherine." Feng Ru hugged her tightly.

Catherine said softly: "I heard that you Chinese can marry many wives, but you can only marry me."

Feng Ru smiled lightly, patted her on the back, and said, "Catherine, you will always be the only one in my heart."

Not to mention that Feng Ru abducted the sister of the Wright Brothers here.

The U.S. government has not let the public down, perhaps they have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

The day after the mass demonstrations, in response to public outcry, Congress immediately passed a resolution calling for the recognition of the Cuban rebel regime. At the same time, the U.S. government was preparing to send naval ships to Cuba to protect American lives and property.

The battleship USS Maine headed for Havana with the hope of the entire American people.

The military action of the Americans is that the Spaniards are being passive. On the one hand, they are trying to appease the anger of the Americans. At the same time, they are also preparing for war. The Spanish Navy Minister issued an alarm to the Navy and warned Admiral Paz, who commanded the home fleet. Qual Cervera is going to destroy the US base in Key West and blockade the US coast.

Between the United States and the West, the situation is tense and explosive. .

Volume 3 The Wind and Cloud in the Capital [-] Chapter [-]

Chapter 3 Official Earthquake Falls

The disputes on the other side of the ocean did not affect the land of China, which is far away across the ocean. The Chinese who won the two anti-aggression wars gained a short temporary life.

Northeast China, Vladivostok, and even Ezo Island and Kyushu Island have a lot of vacant land waiting for those living in poverty to occupy them. As long as you are willing, as long as you are willing to immigrate, you can get a lot of land.

The upsurge of immigration made the whole land of China boil.

The government not only encourages immigration, but also encourages multiple births. There are certain shortcomings for multi-birth families. This era is no better than later generations. The territory of the world has been basically divided up in later generations, but there is still plenty of land waiting for this era. The Chinese go to develop and occupy.

After the government of the Republic of China put down the chaos in Tibet, it basically stabilized the entire southwest region, and all parts of the country entered a period of stable development. However, the land of China, which seemed to be beginning to balance, had many hidden dangers.

Among them, the most serious one is the administration of officials. Administration of officials is the management of officials, and administration of officials is the control of corruption. The power without supervision will inevitably lead to corruption. In the late Qing Dynasty, the corruption of Chinese officials was no longer an isolated phenomenon.

The Republic of China, which inherited the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, used violence to overthrow the central government, and many provinces just followed the wind and joined the newly established Republic of China after a makeover.

What they did was a trick to sell dog meat. They continued to take what should be taken, and took what should not be taken unscrupulously.Corruption by bureaucrats, collusion between government officials, academics, businessmen and foreign ghosts to exploit and plunder, social morality degenerates, pornography, gambling, drugs and gangsters rampant, these are all things that Ye Zhikui, who was a small man in his previous life, hated.

That's why Ye Zhikui set up a special supervision department as soon as the military government was established: the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and appointed Cen Chunxuan, who is known as the official butcher, as the Minister of Integrity.

This era is fortunate again, at least there are people with clear personalities such as Cen Chunxuan and Wang Shizhen, who are much better than the silent generations.

Cen Chunxuan is also a scheming person, knowing that the ICAC is the public enemy of the entire official group, so he abandoned the style of three fires when a new official takes office, and instead used the strategy of Chun Yurun silently.

First build the ICAC into an iron bucket, and then quietly start the investigation, starting from a young age, and then follow the vines. When the officials let down their vigilance and thought he was just catching some small shrimps for business, they have already stretched out their hands. Everywhere, even central government.

"Master Cen, have you gone back?" It was already late at night, and Cen Chunxuan from the ICAC put down his work and walked out of the awe-inspiring ICAC.

Along the way, officials who were still fighting greeted him one after another.

Late at night in the late autumn of the capital, the weather was slightly cold. Cen Chunxuan stepped on the avenue paved with bluestone slabs, making a creaking sound. He looked at both sides of the road with great interest. Although it was late at night, it was still lively.

Behind him, followed closely by two personal guards.

"The life of the people is getting better day by day." Cen Chunxuan said with a sigh, if there were no corrupt officials, this dynasty could be called a peaceful and prosperous age.

"My lord, I heard that someone in the capital wanted to buy your life for 5 taels." One of the guards stepped forward and said worriedly.

"For 5 yuan, my life, Cen Chunxuan, is very valuable." Cen Chunxuan laughed at himself.
