"Where has the Netherlands and France gone now?" In the newly established Chenliu County in Baoding, the deputy chief of staff of the Joint Staff, who has become increasingly low-key in recent years, has been in charge of the position of Minister of the Army for nearly 20 years, and is returning from hunting with a group of former subordinates.

Chenliu County is a newly established county this year. It has three settlements under the jurisdiction of Chenliu Town, Linqiu Township and Dongping Township, with a population of about 12,300. It is the fifth county in Baoding area and the 96th county-level administrative unit in the country. Together, it is also Yanggu County (97th County) with four settlements under the jurisdiction of Yanggu Town, Wuyan Township, Wan'an Township and Zoushan Township; it has six settlements under the jurisdiction of Xing'an Town, Shaxi Township, Chongxian Township, Xingguo Township, Gaogang Township and Xingjiang Township.

The central government approved the establishment of five county-level administrative units in September in September, making the number of counties in the east coast of Jicheng Town, Fengshi Township, Xiaohuang Township, Jianling Township and Yima Township. The central government approved the establishment of five county-level administrative units in September, making the number of counties in the east coast nationwide reach 100, which is also a big deal.

Of course, considering that the population of the East Coast is only 2.712 million, and the estimated population of the East Coast is 1.151 million, which is nearly 10,000 more than the number of Ming people immigrants, becoming the largest group in China for the first time; while the number of white men and women is still at 7% and 8.5% respectively, maintaining stability; the number of non-national labor workers is limited to various factors and has decreased for the second consecutive year, but it is still barely maintained at the 300,000-year mark, of which white non-nationals account for 34.3%. The number of people in the county is actually only 20,000 to 30,000 people, which is really pitiful. Therefore, the current level of development of the East Coast land is still relatively low. There are large areas of barren wild land between every two settlements. Occasionally, some temporary residences built for herders can be seen, and in addition, there are only woods and wormwood.

It is precisely because of this that the wilderness of the East Coast is still a paradise for wild animals, with lions, leopards, foxes, jackals and other animals everywhere, attracting a large number of East Coast powers to hunt every year. At this time, Mo Ming and others are just there. However, as a political task that attracts attention in every move, people like Mo Dashuo will always avoid the involvement of national affairs during conversations. For example, what they are talking about is the current turbulent situation in Europe and the impact it may have on the East Coast Republic of China.

"It is still a situation of fighting but not breaking, but it is hard to say how long this state can last. Anyway, more and more people in the United Province are pessimistic about Dutch-French relations, and even many merchants who previously supported the Republicans. Although our intelligence personnel cannot reach this point due to various factors, limited information shows that the Orange family, which now represents the interests of traditional land aristocrats, is becoming increasingly high. A large number of Dutch people place their hopes on this military aristocrat family, hoping that they can stand up and save the United Province, just like the family led the Lowlands to resist the rule of the Spaniards. It is said that Prince Orange's close political allies are currently operating everywhere, intending to restore the position of "United Province's rule" that has been revoked for many years, and make the Orange family the head of the United Province again, even if it is just a nominal head." Pu Ting, who is already full of silver hair, said.

This army intelligence leader who has been in charge of the military police headquarters for many years is one of the most feared people in power in the East Coast. He has no idea how many people he has mastered. After years of work, he naturally has a decisive atmosphere of killing and decisiveness. As the saying goes, he is powerful without anger. However, at this time, in front of Mo Ming, the founder of the new army in the East Coast and who has been in charge of the army system for 20 years, Pu Ting's expression was so kind and kind. His wrinkled old face was now even more smiling as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"So, it is inevitable that the Orange family's superiority is inexorable?" Mo Ming handed a ivory handle in his hand, inlaid with countless gems, a hunting rifle that can be called an artwork to his entourage, and then wiped his face with a towel, and asked inadvertently: "We don't have much dealing with this man and his family."

"Although it has not yet taken over, the trend is really hard to reverse, and the general trend has been established. As long as the French continue to release malicious intentions to the United Provinces for one day, more Dutch people will be encouraged to vote with Prince Orange. The Falcona, a loyal ally of the Orange family, is now advocating in the third-level parliament every day, saying that only by restoring the ruling status of Prince Orange and the prince family comes forward to integrate the armed forces of each province, can it be possible to

Against the invasion of the French, they said shamelessly that history has proved that only Orange can save the Netherlands. It is time for the United Provinces to be unified under a head of state, rather than continuing to be scattered and bullied by others." Pu Ting, wearing a red hunting suit, smiled and said: "The Dutch are very superstitious about this, because in history, this military aristocratic family has indeed turned the tide several times. It is a veritable Dutch patron saint family, although it has many black spots."

Mo Ming nodded slightly after hearing this. He understood Pu Ting's meaning. When the Dutch citizens and merchants faced national crisis, they would wisely compromise and accept the centralized rule of the Orange family to overcome the difficulties. However, once the country lifted the external threats it faced, these guys would be eager to jump out and demand that the Orange family step down and return to the parliament. The Orange family naturally could not submit and give up their power, not to mention that they had to consider their own party members and followers, so in peace in history

The period has always been a battle between the two forces of the Orange and Republican forces. As for whom the upper hand in the fight, the existence and abolition of the position of the first head of the United Provinces, the "ruling" is the weather vane. The latest abolition of the Dutch rule was twenty years ago. At that time, Frederick, the head of the Orange family, was dismissed by parliament. In anger, he led his troops to Amsterdam, intending to seize power, but unexpectedly died halfway because of smallpox, which made a crisis that is likely to trigger a Dutch civil war disappear invisibly.

Since then, the Orange family, which "has violated the taboo", has been rejected by many people, and the power of the republicans in the third-level parliament has also increased greatly. John Dewitt became the de facto supreme leader of the United Provinces as the speaker, leading the Lowland people through a mixed 20 years.

However, the people always heal their scars and forget to hurt. Under the real threat of France, the Netherlands has now resumed its ruling position and welcomed Prince Orange to rise more and more, so that the Orange faction has taken the opportunity to counterattack and since then it feels like a serf singing. However, because Speaker Dwitter has responded well, he has also had some prestige after two British-Dutch wars (especially defeating the British Navy for the second time), Admiral Druittel also expressed support for him, so he can more or less stabilize the situation and not let the Orange faction turn the tables immediately. However, how long can he last? It is an unknown number. You must know that King Louis XIV of France is still "assisting" Prince Orange.

"The country's foreign policy is very problematic. It has been fighting with the Republicans for so many years and Dwayte. Although it has never given up contact with the Orange family, its strength is obviously not enough. Now that people are in a hurry, you can go up and put your face on the cold butt, the effect is not as good as you imagined." The followers laid a white carpet on the soft grass. Mo Ming sat on it and said, "Selling weapons and sending troops is the idea of ​​the Republicans. If they do it, they will only deepen the connection with them. They have a lot of thoughts for the Orange family.

He Yi? Maybe they are secretly jealous because we tried our best to help the republicans! But then again, Van Boyningen also had a very big tone. He actually wanted to hire eight battalions of the East Coast Army (with a full 11,600 people. Currently, in order to save military expenditure, only half of them are full entries, and the other half is a brief entries) to go to the United Save to help them fight. He also said that the money is not a problem and will definitely be given enough. And it is possible to sign a new business treaty with us and give some convenience in trade. It is simply a naked temptation."

"But how is this possible?" Mo Ming asked his entourage to open a bottle of wine, then took the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Eight battalions of army, but the foundation of our country's country, how can we easily go overseas? And four of them are slap battalions, and there are not many people who are not satisfied with the organization. Unless the white shirts of the State Council are willing to increase the army's funding starting next year, first make up for the vacancies of these four battalions, and then new ones

Establish 2-4 mixed battalions so that there is plenty to support the Dutch! Otherwise, guarding 2-3 battalions in the local area, 1 battalion of the South African garrison army, 1 battalion of the Far East, and 1 battalion on the South Cone Liangyang Railway, only 2-3 battalions can be hired for the Dutch. Well, what can it be used for about three or four thousand people? In the army battle with more than one hundred thousand people, I am afraid that I will not be able to persevere for a moment and be wiped out in ashes."

"So, Minister Mo, the direction of our efforts this time is to let the government expand our army and then go to the Netherlands to participate in the war?" Pu Ting also took a wine glass, but his attention was obviously still on Mo Ming's face.

"The United Province is our most important trading partner in Europe, so if you ask me whether to support them, that is of course support. But support also requires methods. Expanding the army and sending part of it to the lowlands is the best way, no one. After all, the Dutch's maritime power has just been rebuilt (12 million rupiahs spent during the Second British-Dutch War. Although it was cut due to the reduction of military fund allocations, it still maintained a considerable scale). It has strong strength and is not comparable to the French navy. But the army is the biggest shortcoming of the Dutch, and we can help them make up for it. It only takes 6-7 battalions, 10,000 elite troops, and cooperates with a large number of fortresses and local militias to protect the safety of the Dutch's province. This is no joke." Mo Ming took a sip of red wine and said.

"Minister Mo, how to deal with the Far East? I have collected and sorted out the news that has been sent back one after another in the past year. I always feel that a large storm is about to blow on the land of China. We must prepare in advance, otherwise we may be caught off guard by this time. This obviously requires some troops to be dispatched to the place, otherwise it may not be suppressed. But now the Dutch also wants to hire a considerable amount of military force, which is difficult to deal with, and it cannot be transferred!" Pu Ting put down his wine glass and asked with a frown.

"If there is not enough troops, you can form a new one. If there are not enough eight battalions, there are twelve battalions, and if there are not enough twelve battalions, there are sixteen battalions, and there are 100 counties in the country, with a population of more than 2 million. I don't think it's not that I can't make up enough, but that the funds are not enough! Now that the Dutch are willing to provide high employment costs and bear the local pensions, allowances, food and accommodation, etc., why miss this opportunity? The Dutch helped us maintain six or seven battalions, and our pressure would be much smaller. If the white shirts of the State Council felt that military expenditures could not affect national construction too much, we could start a new round of disarmament operations after the war, which would be understandable." Mo Ming said.

He said this a bit rogue, because everyone knows that it is easy to form a new force, but it is difficult to lay off numbers after the war. Once it is true as he said just now, the Executive Committee and the State Council agreed to the Army to form sixteen mixed battalions, and to say something off, unless the Executive Committee’s men were kicked by donkeys, it would be impossible to agree to this request that eight more people would be reduced after the war. The resistance faced by this is not ordinary. After all, these people are heroes fighting for national interests, and with some support, how can you lay off just by saying that you have to cut them? The Executive Committee’s men have become elite old men, how can they be fooled by you?

However, as the saying goes, asking for a price everywhere, paying back the money, sixteen mixed battalions are gone, then ten or twelve are still a little bit possible, after all, it is the time to use people now. Perhaps, this is the real purpose of the army. The East Coast has been in peace for many years, and they are not only stuck by the State Council, but also being run by the navy. Life is very difficult and they have long wanted to seek breakthroughs. It just so happens that the United Provinces and the Far East seem to be both a problem, which is naturally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the military leaders of the army system, so they naturally have to make great efforts.
