Wang Jinming stood up and focused everyone's attention on himself. Then he said, "I saw everyone's doubts, and I will explain to you that the reason why horse bandits are difficult to clear is that they are unable to escape from one blow, and they flee thousands of miles away. With the help of the horse's powerful maneuverability, even if they encounter a blow, they will quickly escape!"

The eight major Shanxi merchants nodded. They knew the habits of the horse bandits and their combat effectiveness were not even as good as their guards, let alone the rigs that had been strictly trained. They fought positions directly. With 100 militias, they could kill at least 500 horse bandits. However, all the horse bandits' abilities were on horseback. Many horse bandits had been eating, living, and eating, clothing, housing and transportation for decades. In this case, if they really fled, it would be difficult to encircle them unless they were in the right place and setting up an ambush.

Near Baotou, there are Mongolian grasslands, without special mountain passes and valleys in the northeast. To a certain extent, the horse bandits are naturally careful, making any ambush in vain. Even if they are forced to set up an ambush, the horse bandits will quickly flee when the attack is unfavorable, which has caused this situation.

Wang Jinming remembered everyone's expressions and continued: "If the new army approves, we can incorporate the militia into the new army and transfer it from Baotou in a way that can train and train!"

"Dislocation?" Wei Ming shouted out almost in a lost voice. The new army had a great effect on the Wei family. Every few days, the Wei family would transport a batch of silver dollars to Taiyuan or Zhangjiakou to support the increasingly large bill of exchange business. Although he would take out a lot of funds every time to repay the militia. But he knew that compared with his profits, the number of silver dollars transported in four consecutive months was hundreds of millions, and there was no problem at all, which showed that the new army was stable.

Now, if the new army is transferred, what should we do with the silver dollar transportation business? He almost stood up on the spot and asked questions. Wang Jinming said calmly: "Don't worry first. Brother Wen Ju, we have a complete arrangement for this plan!"

Wei Ming sat down half-believingly, and the others were also thinking about the pros and cons of the militia transfer. Qiao Zhiyong from the Qiao family had the most flexible mind and stood up and said, "Mr. Yang's meaning is to show the enemy as weak and lead the opponent to attack Baotou!"

"That's right, that's what it means!"

"Then then attract the bandits and the militia will come back!"

"I will definitely come back, but it's just after the war. In this battle, the new army will definitely be transferred away. Baotou will only leave a small part of the Yellow River Patrol Battalion and some ordinary militias. They can only rely on them!" Wang Jinming said calmly, about this plan. In the past half month, after Yang Yuanzhao proposed it, he and his staff members did not know how many deductions he had conducted. If the new army is transferred back, it will be impossible to block the endless grassland, and there is no way to do anything by water or land. In the end, under the deduction, only by relying on the small number of Yellow River Patrol Battalions and militias can the maximum number of horse bandits to attract Baotou.

"Is this a bit too risky?" said the head of the Qu family. He was robbed of a caravan and suffered heavy losses. However, there were more assets in Baotou, especially the cotton textile factory, which had become an important asset in the entire Baotou. It was not an exaggeration to make money every day. If the purpose of annihilation of the horse bandits would affect this cotton textile factory, no one could accept it. Not to mention that the cotton textile factory was destroyed by the war, even if it was suspended for a few days, it would not be acceptable. Most of the orders were signed.

The same idea is that there are other honest and steady heads of the family, including Hou Jinsheng, the big landlord. All the foundation and capital of the Hou family are in Baotou. If this place becomes a battlefield, if there is some damage, it will definitely not be accepted.

"I know everyone's concerns, so this battle must be early. It's May soon and the wheat will be harvested. We can get a little earlier. This will lose some of the wheat yield and quality, but it can provide us with 15-20 days of war time, which is also a way to minimize the loss!"

Harvest in advance will lead to losses, but compared with the losses directly attacked by the horse bandits, it is simply tiny. It seems that the Baotou militia and the Chamber of Commerce have made a comprehensive consideration. Many heads of the family showed deep thoughts on their faces. Qiao Zhiyong stood up and asked, "Then how to attract the horse bandits!"

"Of course, the sharks are about to smell the fishy smell. The Wei family's ticket number and several other ticket numbers have not been transported out of the market for a while!"

Qiao Zhiyong immediately understood that he also made a ticket number, knowing that Baotou's industry and commerce are extremely developed now, and the amount of acceptance every day is quite large. If silver dollars are not transported from now until early May, just Baotou locals may have to store 50 million or even more silver dollars. I am afraid that even the Beiyang Army will be interested in knowing this money, let alone the horse bandits, especially the militia transferred away, leaving only less than 1,000 people in the Yellow River Patrol Battalion and militia. How can we resist this? As long as this information is leaked, the horse bandits will rush over even if they are thousands of miles apart.

"It can really resist it!" someone asked weakly.

"Of course, everyone should have confidence in our Baotou militia. As for the method, I won't say much!" Wang Jinming did not say how to resist, but the position of the Baotou new army among the crowd has always allowed many heads to calm down. If the horse bandits were introduced to Baotou and annihilate a large part of them, not to mention too much. As long as 50% is killed and some more powerful bandit gangs are destroyed, the bandit problem can definitely be solved to a certain extent.

Wei Ming looked at the people who were a little moved and panicked, saying, "But what should we do with our Wei family? If the Wei family's ticket number is not supported by this amount of money, it may fall down. I can't joke about the Wei family!"

What Wei Ming said is the truth. The entire Baotou and the Wei family Piaohao made a lot of profits. Relying on the relationship between shareholders and Baoken Company, most of the capital flow of the Baotou Chamber of Commerce is placed on the Wei family Piaohao. In this case, it has the most flow of money every day. If it is not transported out by early May, their Wei family will almost leave 30 million in Baotou. This money, even if it is against the Wei family, cannot be easily resisted. Once there is a turmoil, it will be completely finished.

"Okay, Yang Shao has comprehensive consideration for this. He will save $30 million in Citibank in Zhangjiakou and Taiyuan through the German and American Foreign Exchange to help the Wei family and other tickets to transfer. I think there is no problem!"

30 million US dollars, or 60 million yuan, this money can definitely be called a huge sum. With it as a foundation, the operation of the lieutenant family and other lieutenants will not be a problem. Wei Ming finally understood that Yang Yuanzhao really had comprehensive considerations. I am afraid that he had considered this before. The reason why he chose the lieutenant was probably more to convince the horse bandits that there was such a huge sum of money in Baotou. Otherwise, they knew that Yang Yuanzhao was rich, but the lieutenant did not know it. On the contrary, the lieutenant, these lieutenants had been in Baotou for many days and had even hit the silver cart several times. They must have calculated it, but they could not be accurate, but they knew that this was a huge number counted in tens of millions.

The shareholders' meeting quickly reached the issue, and several companies came forward to jointly build a new army in Baotou. On the one hand, it was to suppress bandits, and on the other hand, it was also to shock the development of the northwest. Baotou's industrial and mining industry also needed such a new army to take charge. The militia was too small.

At this time, the center of the Qing court was a little confused. The Regent had just come to power and forced Yuan Shikai to return home, but he could not eliminate Yuan Shikai's forces in the entire Qing court, especially the Beiyang Army. Beiyang Dragon and Tiger Dog, Wang Shizhen, Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang, they firmly grasped the military power. They were the most loyal to Yuan Shikai. As for the counselor Xu Shichang, the entire Regent was the opinion of the Regent, who replaced Yuan Shikai and controlled the entire Beiyang. After returning from the Northeast, they had no action. Without removing Yuan Shikai's power, they lived a pampering life and cultivated their character.

To some extent, Beiyang said that it was already too big to lose its head. Even if Yuan Shikai was moved, it would not be able to completely eliminate the influence of Yuan's family in the Beiyang army. As long as it was necessary, the Regent had to build a new army in an all-round way to resist the Yuan's aggressiveness. As long as the locals had the ability, they would approve it. Most of the rich provinces, the new army had already been built, and the remaining ones were powerless, powerless or unintentional. At this time, when the new army in Shanxi finally arrived at the center through some channels, the Regent agreed with a big pen.

The application for the new army was smooth and he had prepared for it. Yang Yuanzhao did not expect that the application for the new army in the first aid was just a place to raise the price, giving the Qing court a relatively high goal, waiting for the center to discount the psychological price. You should know that even around the 1911th, a few years later, when Shanxi had a new army, it was just a battalion with a 2,500 people per capita, which was considered a relatively large new army.

No one expected that the Regent had a big pen and the 54 Mixed Association was approved in this way. It was not determined whether it was the standard of one association and two standards, or the standard of one association and three standards. Yang Yuanzhao had originally planned to expand the system. At that time, he could have stuffed about 2,000 people into Feng Yuxiang's camp. One association could not have stuffed 10,000 or 20,000 people into one association. It was a completely different matter. Relying on the order of the Regent, the title of the 54 Mixed Association, at most one year, with the support of arms and the expansion of the backbone of the militia, he would also gather some outstanding soldiers across the country, a new army comparable to the town or even the third model town of the Beiyang. Maybe it would take shape. This is the biggest reliance in troubled times.

When the news came out of Beijing, it was reported to Yang Yuanzhao by a telegram. After one or two days, it was reported to Yang Yuanzhao. Yang Yuanzhao was discussing with Wang Jinming. The next plan, when he heard the news, he stood up excitedly, and couldn't help but feel excited and said, "Brother Jinming, our affairs have been done!"

"Congratulations, brother, will you follow the plan next?"

"Of course, let these horse bandits become a celebration before our 54 mixed-edition alliance established the army!" Yang Yuanzhao tilted his head, looked at Wang Jinming, and said calmly. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
