Rebirth of South America as King

In the open space next to the German engineer, more than a hundred Han soldiers either armed with a gun or set up a handle. According to German requirements, a surveying and mapping rod was set every tens of meters.

The company responsible for protecting German engineers was a company selected from the Han National Army. The company commander was Lu Rongting, who had just been promoted to captain.

I arranged the tasks of the soldiers properly. After a few chats with Lu Rongting and the officials who accompanied the engineers, I found an opportunity. I sat down under the camphor tree, took out a thick logbook, and began to organize the company's battle records.

The battle record is not only used to record the fighting and training of a unit, as a voucher for counting the combat achievements of soldiers and officers, but also a first-hand real case to summarize and reflect on the lessons and improvements in each battle.

每 Each company-level unit of the National Defense Force has its own combat record

Records are usually compiled by the company and battalion commanders for combat records and soldier reward and punishment data, and then submitted to the division command of the combat unit to which they belong. The division command then verifies and determines the authenticity of the reward and punishment. Finally, the division Report the list of officers and soldiers of the whole division to the General Staff. At the same time, the division will screen out combat events with educational and reflective significance into the division's combat history records and preserve them as part of the division's combat history.

Opened the record of the war, page by page, carefully browsed the list of meritorious soldiers, when turning to page 5, Lu Rongting curious, could not help but spend a few minutes on the introduction of a deputy platoon officer.

"Yan Zhengping, 31 years old, deputy platoon commander of the Second Battalion of the Sixth Battalion of the Third Division and the First Battalion, the rank of second lieutenant, during the Argentine War, killed and injured three Argentine soldiers, killed one British white soldier, and captured four Indian indigenous soldiers. He was injured once, and was awarded two second-class merits and one first-class merits. On the 28th, he was promoted to the rank of second lieutenant after being approved by the division. "

Yan Zhengping's military merit is counted in the upper and middle of the company, but this is not the reason that Lu Rongting paid special attention. What really interested him was the introduction of Yan Zhengping's family.

"Yan Zhengping, a native of South Fujian immigrant family, moved to South America with his father and brother in 1873. He has 4 brothers, 13 sons and daughters, 9 fathers, brothers, brothers, and nieces, and his father is 47 years old. Joined the army early, retired in 1877 with the rank of deputy commander of the lieutenant commander, and re-enlisted at the end of 1878 to serve as deputy battalion of the garrison with the rank of interim captain. .

The eldest son was serious and safe. He was 16 years old. He was a soldier of the Third Battalion of the Fourth Division of the Field Army and was a company of five battalions. He joined the army in early 1879. During the war, he captured one Argentine soldier and was awarded second-class merits once. ......... "

My father, brother, and nephew joined the army at the same time. Lu Rongting saw this for the first time, but after reading Yan Zhengping's introduction to his family, although there was still some curiosity, it was not as strong as it was at the beginning.

Yan Zhengping's father married at the age of 14 and gave birth to his eldest son the next year. Before immigrating to South America, his father in his early forties had five sons and three daughters. However, one of the sons and two daughters died because of famine and disease. After arriving in South America, The remaining four sons and one daughter and their grandsons and granddaughters ate their meals. This led to a large family of more than twenty people including daughter-in-law, son, daughter, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter.

Early marriage and early childbearing, many children and many grandchildren, the people at the bottom have nothing, and the children born are miscellaneous grains and coarse food to make up for. As long as they can live to be eleven or twelve years old, even if they add an extra labor force to the family, they can increase the whole family through working farm The rations can also be used to continue the incense and inherit the family business.

The bottom Chinese have moved to South America. Although they do not have to eat as much as they used to, and suffer from hunger every day, the idea of ​​having more children has been firmly inherited by the government ’s intentional publicity and the influence of family concepts.

For ordinary Chinese families, unless there are special circumstances, at least three children and each additional child, the government will grant five acres of good arable land or 30 to 100 acres of pasture woodland. If the number of children is less than three within seven years of marriage First, officials rushed to the door first, and if they did not change, they would take back some land as punishment.

There are many benefits to having more children. Not only do they have less land than others' homes, but they also lag behind other families in the next generation of competition. Therefore, in South America, there are many brothers and nephews like Yan Zhengping. At the same time, the phenomenon of joining the army will be more in the future. By that time, you will know more about it, and you may not be so curious about similar phenomena.

After staying under the tree for about half an hour, Lu Rongting put away the record of the war. When he was about to get up, he saw Wang Shizhen walking away. Wang Shizhen was younger than Lu Rongting. After the war, he was promoted to Deputy Lieutenant Lieutenant Company. Chang and Lu Rongting stayed in the same company, usually responsible for assisting Lu Rongting to handle company affairs.

The company commander, the Germans will probably have more than ten minutes to complete the surveying and mapping work, and Mr. Zhou asked me to inform you to arrange for the troops to gather in advance.

行 "Okay, let the first and second rows of the security task go back. The third row helps the Germans to gather the surveying and mapping instruments, and instructs the brothers in the third row to be careful and don't pull down the pieces."

"Yes, company commander, I'll send someone to order it."

Arranged the task, Lu Rongting saw that the other party was still there, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Company commander, the result of my last application came out. The division came and ordered me to pack my things and report to Chang'an City within half a month. Then I took the ocean shipping company's carrier and followed sixty to Songkhla. Grass-roots officers serving as military instructors left together. "

"Have you considered it?"

"Before submitting my application for reassignment to the Nanyang Army, I had considered it for a month. The Argentine war ended, and the local army was downsized and rectified. Even if it stays in the country, there has been no war in recent years. The situation in Nanyang is more complicated than that. There, maybe sometime when I fought with the indigenous militants, although the conditions on the Nanyang side are a bit bitter, but there are more opportunities to fight, so I thought of serving there for a while, and by the way, I looked for opportunities to trust people and take my mother and aunt The mainland will pick it up. "

"After His Royal Highness the King of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, the Manchu dynasty will definitely be even more frightened of the Han country. You joined the army in South America and left your two aunts on the mainland. In the event of a leak, some conditions were discovered by the Qing court. The aunts are in danger. "

Lu Rongting nodded in understanding and said, "The Military Intelligence Department has established a branch in the Nanyang region. The task of receiving local officers and soldiers left behind by family members in the region has always been the responsibility of the Intelligence Department. After you arrive in Nanyang, you can go to Master Mei and take you The situation is clear to Master Mei, Master Mei will help you to contact the head of the military intelligence department on the mainland, and the military intelligence department will come forward to take the two aunts out of the mainland. "

"Thank you, Brother Lu, for reminding me that it would be more convenient for mothers and aunts to be brought out of the mainland if they were to come directly from the Ministry of Intelligence."

Visiting and looking for official family members stranded in the mainland is one of the main tasks of the military intelligence department, but because the military intelligence department is concealed, not many people know the details.

Lu Rongting also only consulted the company's early war records ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and found brief information about the visit of the Ministry of Intelligence during the 1868 uprising to sacrifice the family of the soldiers, which gave the military intelligence the intelligence work in Nanyang A little one-sided understanding.

寻找 The operation of the Military Intelligence Department to find relatives left by officers and men in the mainland is semi-public information. Generally, only officers above the battalion level and some family members on the mainland know that ordinary grass-roots officers and soldiers are not particularly concerned and it is difficult to obtain relevant information.

The visit to the relatives of soldiers and soldiers stranded in the mainland originated from a promise made by Li Mingyuan during the Peruvian Chinese Workers Uprising in 1868. At that time, the Chinese workers were in a difficult situation and ordinary Chinese workers did not have any confidence in the success of the uprising. In order to stabilize the army and solve the worries of Chinese workers, Li Mingyuan Solemnly promised to give each uprising Chinese laborer acres of land, even if the uprising Chinese laborer died unfortunately in the middle, Li Mingyuan will hand over the land belonging to them to the living relatives.

Chinese laborers migrated thousands of miles, and after the two states in southern Brazil established themselves, in order to fulfill their commitments to the Chinese laborers in the uprising, Li Mingyuan sent more than ten batches of men to the mainland. On the one hand, based on the family address information left by the Chinese laborers in the uprising, he searched for the leftovers. Families in various regions of the mainland, on the other hand, set up a regional intelligence network to lay the foundation for subsequent immigration and intelligence gathering.

Eleven years have elapsed. The family members of the uprising Chinese workers who died and lived up to now, except for a few who died because of unknown addresses or suffered natural disasters, were mostly sent to live in South America. Li Mingyuan fulfilled his original promise to seek officers and men. The operation of relatives stranded in the mainland area has also continued as a fixed task of the Ministry of Intelligence.
