Chapter 196 Brothers’ heart-to-heart talk, future military guarantee
The late Qing Dynasty was a period of extreme change, with countless ideas colliding to seek a future for China.
Without the perspective of the historical experience of later generations, it would be difficult for Li Qiwei to distinguish who is right and who is wrong.
However, he is the soul of future generations after all, and he knows that there is only one way for China to rise.
So, he doesn't get involved in any debate, because it's all wrong. He just needs to wait quietly.
As time enters November, the domestic situation becomes increasingly chaotic.
The royalists, constitutionalists, and revolutionaries argued in newspapers to demonstrate the advantages of their respective claims.
At the same time, no one cares about ordinary people in the country.
None of the various political opinions of the big shots puts the people first and thinks from the perspective of the people.
While they are using lofty theories to analyze the domestic shortcomings, countless people are suffering from natural and man-made disasters.
People don't care about doctrines. They only care about whether they can have enough to eat today and whether they can wear warm clothes tomorrow.
It is such a chaotic state that gives many careerists the opportunity to hibernate.
Maybe they haven’t shown their fangs yet, or they haven’t transformed to that point yet.
But they know that as long as they have soldiers in their hands, they will be invincible no matter what happens in the country in the future.
In May 1905, Yuan Shikai's six-town new army in Beiyang was fully trained, totaling 70,000 people.
Except for the first town, which was controlled by the Manchus, the other five towns were almost considered Yuan Shikai's private soldiers.
Official officers, big and small, were all his direct descendants, and the Manchus could not command them even if they wanted to.
Li Qiwei's eldest brother, Li Bokai, is still the leader of the fourth town, which is also the core town of the six towns and comes from the small station for training.
However, Li Bokai knew about the gap between Li Qiwei and Yuan Shikai, and he had no hope of his promotion.
The two brothers had another secret conversation after Li Qiwei went to the capital.
Li Qiwei persuaded Li Bokai that it was better to leave the Fourth Town before 1911 than to develop in Nanyang.
Li Bokai was extremely shocked when he heard it and couldn't understand it at all.
"Third brother, why is this? Do you have some inside story that I don't know about?"
It is impossible for Li Qiwei to tell him the truth. He does not want to see his eldest brother fighting with the revolutionary party in the future. .
They are all the best and most famous men in the country. It is a pity that they are wasted in the struggle for power among the big shots.
As a result, Ridgway divested himself of all plans for a city of science, including top-secret plans for atomic bombs and aircraft.
Li Bokai is his eldest brother. If this has to be kept secret, Li Qiwei doesn’t know who he can trust.
In the future, family power will be his most trusted and reliable core force.
"Huh? Third brother, are you kidding me?"
"This is incredible."
"Will the future really be what you predict?"
Li Qiwei could only make up: "Brother, you know, I am studying in the UK."
"I can also know some senior executives. From their words, I can infer the great powers’ domestic ambitions.”
“In the next few decades, the world will definitely be in chaos.”
“It is better to be affected at home. Find another way.”
"And in my plan, I need your support in the early stage, big brother."
"When I don't have the ability to deter the whole world, I must at least have the power to protect myself."
"Nanyang is far away from the great powers. , they can’t send many core troops, and as long as we fight guerrilla warfare, the other side will have nothing to do.”
Li Bokai’s eyes lit up when he heard the word guerrilla warfare. He thought this word was very interesting and had rich connotations.
“Hey, before I knew it, third brother, you have grown to this point.”
"I have always treated you like a little kid, playing with Zhongxing behind me."
"The things you planned are really appalling."
"But, I like it very much, and it makes my blood boil."
Li Qiwei also smiled heartily: "Brother, the current situation in the world is changing, and this is an opportunity for good men of my generation to make contributions."
< br>“Staying in the country has no meaning other than killing each other.”
"Do you know how many revolutionary parties have come to look for me during this period?"
"I don't want to see you encounter them in the future."
"This is what everyone is doing. There is no need for the country to choose a close-quarters approach."
Li Bokai deeply agreed. In fact, a similar situation has occurred in the New Army recently.
What kind of society and what kind of ideology? He knew what it meant at a glance.
Li Bokai himself sympathized with the Revolutionary Party, and he had no sense of belonging to the Manchus.
It's just that Yuan Shikai was kind to him in the past.
And now, because of Li Qiwei’s relationship, there is no need to consider this kind of kindness.
It’s better to do it with your third brother.
However, he was still a little confused.
"Third brother, isn't the weapon you mentioned a bit too exaggerated?"
"With one shot, half the city is gone?"
"Even if it's an immortal in a mythical novel You don’t have this kind of ability.”
“The height of the capital city wall is more than ten meters thick, and no cannon can penetrate it.”
“It can destroy half of the capital city with one shot. Explosion or not, I really can’t imagine this scenario.”
Li Qiwei knew that in the minds of current people, things like the atomic bomb were no different from fantasy.
No matter how he explains it, he will not believe it unless he sees it with his own eyes.
“Brother, you know that I am a physicist in the West.”
“I have this confidence because my research results prove it.”
“ Of course, this is a top secret among top secrets, and I will definitely not expose it. "So, in the early stage, I don't need many protective troops, maybe a thousand people are enough."
“To the outside world, I will not show my ambition to dominate the world, and those big countries will not care about the power of thousands of people.”
“This is my opportunity.”
"Let me have enough time to accumulate strength."
Then, Li Qiwei explained why he vigorously developed education.
Li Bokai looked straight at Li Qiwei as if he had seen a ghost.
"Third brother, are you you?"
"You are not possessed by some great god, are you?"
No wonder he was surprised, it is so huge and meticulous The plan was actually the work of a young man in his twenties.
And this young man is his biological brother, whom he has watched since childhood.
No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a hero who can swallow up the world.
Is studying in Europe such a training exercise?
Li Qiwei was shocked. He could deceive others, but it would be difficult for him to deceive his relatives.
Because it’s so familiar.
People change not overnight, but gradually.
"Brother, don't think too much. It's just that I have been self-reliant in the UK for six years and have figured out a lot of truths."
"People need independence, and countries also need independence."
" A person's independence requires a skill to be able to make money to support himself and his family."
"And the independence of a country requires countless skills, and each of us must use his talents."
"This. This is also the reason for my change of thinking.”
"And I received countless cold looks and ridicules abroad, which sharpened my heart and made me determined."
Immediately, Li Qiwei told what he had just experienced when he arrived in the UK.
Li Bokai felt very distressed when he heard this.
No wonder this younger brother has changed so much.
Studying alone in a foreign country, I was bullied by foreign devils. I had no parents or brothers to rely on, so I could only endure it silently.
Let alone a child, even an adult would find it unbearable.
And his third brother not only survived, but also gained a great reputation.
He patted Li Qiwei heavily on the shoulder and said proudly: "Third brother, don't worry, I will wait for your news at any time."
"If I leave the fourth town, I should There are more than a dozen brothers who will accompany me.”
“I am confident that with them as my team, I can build an iron wall for you.”
Li Qiwei was overjoyed. These were veterans who had experienced the new military education. They were experienced enough to deal with various complex situations in Southeast Asia.
"Brother, don't worry."
"When the city of science is established, you will be responsible for its defense, I will be responsible for scientific research and development, and my second brother will be responsible for management."
" We three brothers will definitely create a great career!"
Li Bo laughed and said: "Haha, if your second brother knows this news, he will be so happy that he can't sleep. He is an official fan. ”
"By the way, haven't you told your parents yet?"
Li Qiwei shook his head, "I will only tell you for the time being."
"I plan to wait for another three years. I'm going to England to solve the land problem."
"Let me tell them before I leave. I don't want the old people to worry."
Li Bokai nodded, he could understand Li Qiwei. After all, although this thing sounds exciting, it is also dangerous to a certain extent.
Maybe it will be a disaster.
With the background of the Li family, we can only succeed but not fail.
If Li Qiwei hadn't been meticulous, meticulous, and flawless in his work, Li Bokai would not have believed him, but would have persuaded his younger brother to give up his fantasy.
In this era, as long as there is a passionate young person, who doesn’t want to make contributions.
The current situation in the world is turbulent and stormy is coming.
He, Li Bokai, doesn't want to live an ordinary life.
A small pipe belt is unattainable in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of big people, it is no different from the grass on the roadside.
He also has ambitions.
And Li Qiwei’s incredible plan gave him hope.
It is better to hang out with your own brother than with outsiders.
Li Bokai also wanted to see the scenery from higher places.
So, after he returned to the fourth town, he worked harder. After training every day, he also had to sum up his experience. In his spare time, he read related books such as the Art of War.
Li Bokai's boss could only sigh with regret when he saw him working so hard.
The commander-in-chief is not happy. No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain. It is a pity that a good seedling is lost.
Li Qiwei is sitting in the office, drawing the planning map of the City of Science.
Industrial areas, university areas, research institutes, restricted areas, etc.
In his previous life, he had a Ph.D. in physics and knew nothing about urban planning.
However, he can ask professionals to help him.
The core content needs to be determined by himself.
Now the site, preliminary force support, related industry companies, and R&D personnel have all begun to activate.
The rest is to develop slowly.
Li Qiwei is so passionate!
