Quick Travel System: Age Strategy

This time, the Communist Party showed great capabilities among those who helped consolidate the regime, and Zhou's father was grateful that it was the help of his son and these people that saved his life.

Under Zhou Shaoren's persuasion, he agreed to support the Communist Party's cause and express his patriotic feelings free of charge.

This has led to the Communist Party's growing ranks, and with the support of the Youth Army, the Communist Party's advantage in electing leaders is increasing.

Several other forces that wanted to fight for it also began to win over warlords from all over the place, but due to the heavy losses they suffered in the last attack on the Qing army, they did not dare to take risks again.

In addition, Hai City has a superior geographical location and a trading port, so trade is easier than theirs.

Being located in the inland, they are far inferior in economic level, and the only thing that can sustain them is the food reserves.

But now if they want to gain a big advantage, they have to occupy other trading ports to expand their territory, but how dare they rush out to occupy the territory? !

The trading port is not very close to their base, and it would take a lot of manpower and resources for a large army to march there.

The surrounding forces are complex and intertwined, and we also have to defend against the counterattack of the Qing army.

Based on these factors, no warlord was willing to take the risk of getting involved in factional struggles.

Although these people were also promised many benefits, the example of the Qing Army above was there.

Being able to repel them and quickly rectify the internal unrest can be said to be a very decisive act.

This raises a question: How big is the Qing Gang now?

The domestic forces alone are incalculable, not to mention the forces developing abroad.

It was precisely because of their doubts that they did not dare to take action. Other factions that wanted to compete for positions had to take action on their own when they saw that the warlords could not win them over.

They can't just sit there and do nothing and wait for the Communist Party to grow, as that would make their situation even more unfavorable.

Just as they were fighting for the ownership of the trading port, the Communist Party received a telegram from a spy and after translation, the content of the telegram could link their actions together.

Knowing their movements, the Communist Party is unwilling to sit idly by and wait for death. Having only one trading port is still not safe, and it is hard to avoid whether the Guo faction will join forces with other foreign forces.

With such concerns, the Communist Party took action first, dividing itself into several small teams to occupy different trading ports to prevent other forces from getting there first.

However, in this case, the amount of firearms and ammunition reserves required reached an astonishing estimate, and the trading ports in various places were still controlled by foreign forces, so it was not so easy to occupy them.

Haishi was originally expelled because Zhou's father became the governor and could not stand the external forces in the territory under him.

Because the members of the Qing Gang were relatively united before, the other people in Hai City didn't dare to say anything and could only watch them do it.

At that time, this incident was even reported in the newspapers in Haishi City, and the people happily set off firecrackers at their doorsteps.

This is something that has never happened before and will never happen again, but it made them feel proud.

Even the people in Haishi who still smoked pipes had uncomfortable reactions, and it was all caused by the group of people who were driven away.

Seeing how miserable they were and begging you for help, you couldn't just stand by and watch them die, so Zhou's father had no choice but to send people to purchase supplies from other provinces to relieve the addiction of the people.

Most of these people are not ordinary. In fact, they were born better off than Zhou's father in the first half of their lives. It's just that their families fell into poverty and they were maliciously harmed by others, which led to them developing bad habits that are difficult to change.

It was because of the excessive smoking that the family had emptied out their pockets. In Zhou's father's opinion, this situation was harder to quit than gambling in the past.

Now that we have occupied the trading ports, we have monopolized a channel for their imports.

In order to correct these people, we can only restrain their use to block it. If we don't allow them to smoke, these people will swallow the blood of others and do anything, just like the living dead, which is pathetic and lamentable.

After the Communists came to the Zhou family and told them that they could not afford all the military forces, Zhou's father and son discussed privately and decided to provide them with weapons.

They contacted the group of death warriors in the small island country and transferred a lot of ammunition through these people.

Of course, the money was also paid by these people. Although the Communist Party now has enough numbers, overall, each member has spent a lot of silver to pave the way for a unified great country.

The Qing Army paid money to support them, and the Communist Party reciprocated by saying that they would slowly return the money to them after occupying the trading ports.

In this way, on the premise that everything was sufficient, the Communist Party implemented the plan first.

During the middle stage, the national army also learned of this news, but they had already launched the action and had no way out, so they could only try to snatch it from the hands.

Fortunately, the garrisons at the trading ports across the country had already started fighting with the Communists, and they could only wait until this wave of people were exhausted before doing the finishing work.

Because the spies in their ambush did not know how many guns there were, they were unable to estimate their heavy losses. In the end, they could not retreat and could only surrender.

After that, the Communist Party occupied the remaining four trading ports and, with the cooperation and support of the Qing Army, secured its leadership position.

But we cannot be careless, as domestic forces are still unevenly distributed.

At this time, someone boldly proposed a guess: if the Qing army joined forces with other warlords to strike back, wouldn't they be in trouble? After several battles, their strength had been greatly reduced, and they could not withstand the siege of so many people.

Some people also immediately retorted that they had helped the Qing Army in the past, and the Qing Army also helped them this time, which could be considered a give-and-take relationship. Besides, the Qing Army's eldest son Zhou Shaoren and his wife Tang Qiulan were still Communists.

How can we doubt each other as one of our own? Isn't this just throwing us off balance? It's also not conducive to unity!

In the end, the affirmative side convinced the negative side, but this fact will always be a thorn in people's side.

In addition, other warlords would release false information from time to time to undermine the friendly trust between the two sides, which led some members of the Communist Party to propose to start developing their own power and no longer rely entirely on the Qing Army.

The newly appointed leader did not object and he was also watching the situation.

The Zhou family didn't react much after learning about this. The country's situation is now supported by the Communist Party, and this step will happen sooner or later.

Zhou's father persuaded Zhou Shaoren to go abroad and stay with his daughter-in-law, as he was afraid that his life would be in danger one day if he stayed here.

Zhou Shaoren also knew that his father would never leave with him. Once he left the country, the situation would become even more chaotic, and Hai Shi didn't know what he would face.

He had no choice but to follow his father's arrangement. Father Zhou had originally planned for him to take Father Tang and his two brothers-in-law with him on this trip abroad.

But in the end, Tang's father still refused to leave his hometown and only asked him to take his two brothers-in-law with him.

Father Zhou had no choice but to let Father Tang stay and live with him in the Governor's Mansion as if he were accompanying him.

After Zhou Shaoren had a meal with the two families, he was sent to the ferry and left by boat with his two brothers-in-law.

He left a part of the forces he brought with him to Zhou's father, and only allowed a few people to follow him as a protection.
