"How many of these workers you have used to living at sea?"

Yang Feng asked Lin Wenchang.

More than a thousand workers have completed the assembly, and most of them are young men, and a large area of ​​black and thin people stand. Not only are they pure Chinese, but some of them should be considered Chinese. But what surprised Yang Feng was that the education level of these people was far higher than that of the country at this time. Most of them had primary school education, and many even went to middle schools.

In fact, unlike later domestic propaganda, in the Netherlands East India, Chinese were in the upper class and could even be on par with white people. The applicable laws were the same as white people, but the Netherlands used another set of laws for the management of indigenous people.

As for the Hongxi tragedy, it was the early stage of the Netherlands' colonial period. To put it bluntly, they were competing with the Chinese for control of Batavia. Before the Hongxi tragedy, there were dozens of sugarcane plantations around Batavia, only one of which was the Netherlands, and the rest were all Chinese. This is a Chinese colony or a Dutch colony? Afterwards, the governor of the Netherlands was captured and died in prison. However, in the massacre after the founding of Java, which of those executioners were tried?

It was the depression of the East Indies after the Hongxi Massacre that the Netherlands understood that it would be impossible to have no Chinese here. Later, their attitude towards Chinese became completely encouraging. Even some Chinese immigrants had their own territory and had a status that surpassed the old princes. In the end, the Netherlands were basically responsible for management and protection, of course, mainly collecting taxes to support the local area, while the Chinese were responsible for making money to pay taxes for them, and the indigenous people were trampled at the bottom of their feet.

This is also why during the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Chinese on the East Indies could continuously transfusion blood to the country, because the Chinese here were rich, and thousands of Nanyang mechanics could return to China to participate in the war. It is also because their living conditions here are better, and they are more likely to get in touch with cars than poor and backward people in the country, and many of them may even own their own cars.

"Sir, no one here is going to the wind and waves." Lin Wenchang said.

"Why do they mean to be a navy?"

"You mean to let them drive that cruiser?"

"Yes, I can tell you clearly that I don't have a sailor now, and the Kaohsiung is a heavy cruiser. Under normal circumstances, nine hundred people are organized. Not only this warship, I also need a large number of army soldiers, at least one division, and they must be all Chinese, but the total population here is not enough for one division!"

"As long as the military salary is right, you can have as much as you want. Not to mention a division, I can recruit you one army."

"What is the military salary of the Americans now?"

"It seems that an ordinary soldier will have a few dozen dollars a month, and the officers will definitely be much higher, but at most it will be a few hundred dollars."

“Just according to their standards.”

"Sir." Lin Wenchang swallowed hard, and said with a little trembling lips: "No need to have that much, half of it is enough."

"How can half? Half? Is it better for us Chinese to live as precious as white people? In addition, tell them that casualties and pensions are all subject to the standards of the Mi army. As long as the head of state has not died, this standard will never change. But there is a requirement that they must join the Ming Empire. Of course, if they have other nationalities, they can also retain them. We recognize dual nationalities. In addition, they must join the Ming Empire Empire Baath Party, and they will not join other parties in the future." Yang Feng said.

At this stage, if he wants to recruit people, he must get a high salary. Anyway, what he lacks the least is money. According to this standard, a soldier only has one Ming ingot a month. The fifty tons of gold on the Voyager are enough for a division's military pay for decades. Money is nothing to him, and talent is what he lacks the most.

Lin Wenchang, who was dizzy by this standard, then ran to the workers he brought to start publicity. Not long after, half of them were brought out to receive Yang Feng's conditions. After some selection, the group recruited a total of 400 soldiers.

These four hundred people mixed with the original eight hundred people, and then picked out the most educated person and Yang Feng personally interviewed. Just like the bald man interviewed his students, of course, they mainly asked some personal questions, such as what books he liked to read, what family situation was, and what kind of ideological awareness was. Moreover, this guy often inadvertently quoted some famous sayings and aphorisms like the leader of the horse. Using this method has attracted many simple-minded and passionate young people. As for the results of these people, it goes without saying.

He used this method to finally determine all the officers of the navy and army, and then divided the 1,200 people in half, half as the army and half as the navy, and then handed them all over the robot soldiers for training. As for the remaining workers, they were led by the migrant workers on the island, led by the Concubine Zeng, and Lin Wenchang continued to run out to recruit soldiers from all over the country and recruit workers, while Huang Yechun was responsible for purchasing supplies from Temasek. Of course, what he purchased was definitely not ordinary supplies.

First of all, the shells needed by Kaohsiung Ji. There were not many shells of various caliber carried on the original ship, and a large part of them were moved to the shore by the Japanese army. These shells were urgently needed by Yang Feng. The battle of Temasek was not completed. These shells were basically piled up in the Japanese ammunition depot. In the end, the British were not as good as the British.

In addition, there is oil. Now Kaohsiung Jike has no oil at all. The Japanese army has reserved a large amount of heavy oil in Temasek, which is also what Yang Feng needs. In addition, the food. With the rapid increase in the population of Yingtian Prefecture, there is definitely not enough food. The Japanese army also stockpiled a large amount of food for the Battle of Temasek, which can be obtained.

After the Emperor of Japan read the surrender edict, it was not until September 3 that the British army entered Temasek to accept the surrender of the Japanese army. For more than half a month, Temasek was actually in anarchy. The Chinese who were full of hatred for the Temasek massacre spontaneously came out to attack the Japanese soldiers, execute traitors, and even set fire to the Japanese military camp. Of course, robbery was indispensable.

In this mess...

Well, in this chaos, the head of the Ming Empire arrived in Temasek in person.

"Is this Temasek?"

Yang Feng stood on the deck of the European Bison and looked at the city in front of him with emotion. The Governor's Mansion that was smashed by him the night before had not been cleaned yet, and he looked a little bit boasting.

"Sir, this is not called here now."

Huang Yechun hurriedly said that he was riding on this hovercraft and jumping down the 55th lunar month, and his head was still dizzy.

The speed of this thing made him dumbfounded. Temasek, which could only arrive at least one day and one night, jumped over in more than five hours, but the fuel consumption also made him dumbfounded. Dozens of tons of oil were gone in five hours. He didn't know that Yang Feng had added an additional fuel tank, otherwise the hovercraft would not be able to run back and forth.

"We are the Ming Empire, so we have to follow the name of the Ming Empire. Zheng He's nautical chart is marked with Temasek, so we have to call this place Temasek." Yang Feng said dissatisfiedly.

Old Huang quickly shut up.

After the European Bison entered the coast of Temasek, the violent roar of the three 10,000-horsepower gas turbines did not weaken at all. The hundreds of tons of warship watched the shore in a dumbfounded manner and rushed directly to a relatively gentle beach. He even drove forward for a while before stopping. Then he deflated the air and opened the front door of the ship. A red steel monster roared fiercely and rushed out from inside. The huge body with clear edges and angular instantly crushed two deep ruts on the soft land.

Well, Yang Feng plundered the South African Paramount Prototype Car, which specialized in show-making, and the 15-ton wheeled armored vehicle will be his head of state.

On the front of the monster's car, two red flags were dancing, one was the empire's dragon-walking sun and moon flag, and the other was the golden Yang character in the middle. This was Yang Feng's head of the car. Of course, soldiers with large-caliber machine guns were indispensable on the roof. However, considering that those beautiful robots could not kill people, the machine gunners this time were all human soldiers who had just recruited under his command.

The reason for using it is very simple, because this time, there were a total of ten Hummer M1151s that came with him. These heavy armored Hummers directly obtained from the Ami Army, with armored forts, large-caliber machine guns and even grenade launchers on their heads, like ten African spotted hyenas, rushed out one by one from the cabin, and then quickly moved the plunderers forward and backward, rushing into the city of Temasek with murderous intent.

The people on the shore were all stupid.

Who has ever seen such a pomp?

Looking at the giant warships on the shore, the slowly rotating turrets, the dancing dragon holding the sun and moon flag on the mast, and then looking at the fiercely shaped armored cars, the Chinese in Temasek felt that their minds were almost out of reach.

They were stupid, and in theory, the Japanese army who were still managing the city were also stupid.

A team of Japanese troops, who were lying behind the sandbag with bayonets in front of the nearby military camp, silently endured the siege of Chinese stones and rotten eggs, watched the convoy drive in front of him in amazement.

Immediately afterwards, ten Hummer M1151s quickly lined up, and all the twelve-seven millimeter M2 machine guns were aimed at them. At the same time, the doors of these cars were opened one after another. The soldiers mixed with robots and humans quickly got out of the car and raised their automatic rifles as a cover to aim at the Japanese army in the barracks.
