The first contact between the two sides was completed in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Both sides basically achieved their desired goals.
This made Li Hailong and the others, who lacked historical knowledge, feel gratified. After sending away the contact of the Black Water Party, Li Hailong and Zhao Liang reported the process of the contact to Captain Wang and the others.
" According to our contact and discussion, we can confirm that the Black Water Party is currently facing great difficulties. First, they lack external forces and various necessities of life, causing internal unrest. The second was that they lacked consideration for their future development goals, or rather, they did not have any at all. This also caused disputes among the leaders. The third reason is that they are worried about our strength. They are deeply afraid that our development will affect their survival.”
"Then do they have any thoughts of joining us?”
"That military advisor mentioned this before, but because it was the first contact, naturally there would not be any results. "Another point is that we appeared out of thin air. Our influence in the remote areas is not big enough. They have heard more rumors, which increases their doubts!”
Captain Zhou laughed without saying anything.
"Hahaha, that's right! On the surface, we have taken down the county town, which means that we have such great strength. But in fact, no one has seen our true strength. Everyone should be passing on our magic power, right?”
"I think so too. Captain Zhou, when you attacked the county town last time, those bullets didn't kill anyone, right? The searchlights had scared people to death! Hahaha, it almost surpassed the laser weapon!”
"What can we do? Now, these people believed in superstition. The more you said, the more they believed!”
"En, isn't Mount Putuo just beside us? If they didn't believe it, what would they eat and drink on the mountain?”
"That's right. Then there's no need to look at anything in the future. Just going to the island would cost a hundred yuan! So there's no need to talk about now!"
"Don't talk about Putuo. Just look around the city. How many temples are there? It was hard to say whether they believed it or not. How many people in the slums could live in these temples alone?”
"Haha, stop. We're going off topic again…Let's talk about our current situation…"
Captain Wang took the opportunity to interject,"
"Looks like these rumors have also been heard by the Black Water Party, causing them to be at a loss! Now, these people were not afraid of real guns and knives. They were afraid of things that they could not see or touch! Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to contact them.”
Zhao Liang also agreed,
"We thought so too. After some communication, we discovered an interesting problem. They kept asking us what divine artifacts we had, what kind of magic power archmages had, and if we had magic power that could kill Yu Wuying to teach them. They didn't ask us what advanced weapons and methods we had.”
"What a bunch of stupid people!"
"Sigh! It's even harder than ascending to the heavens to educate them to change…"
"Stop sighing. This is how society is. Otherwise, why would I need you to come here? Wouldn't the harder it was, the more capable you were?”
"Fine, fine, fine. I'm not wearing a hat. It's too hot today.”
"Haha, stop fooling around. Let's get down to business! "Let's let Political Commissar Zhao continue to speak. Let's see if they still have any doubts about us, or what's the reason why they don't join us immediately…"
Zhao Liang shook his head to clear his mind.
"I think the main question is that they don't understand our policies and our methods. For example, we caught the Englishman, but we didn't kill him or send him to the government. The second thing is that we don't eat the rich like they do. We just settle the accounts of the rich people in the places under our jurisdiction."Although we have explained this, everyone should also understand that the way of thinking of these generations is not something that can be explained in one or two sentences!”
Li Hailong added," I think the most important thing is that they are not a political organization with a clear goal. They are only a temporary group formed by the credibility of some individuals. Therefore, once anything happens, the people will be unstable and fall apart. This is also evident from the obvious concern in the counselor's words!”
"En! This is a problem. Although it's a little difficult, since we've already figured it out, we can prescribe the right medicine!”
The few people present also felt that it was time to show some of their true strength. When Gong Xue Ming heard this, he became excited.
"Commander Wang, let me go over this time. I'll bring a few machine guns and rocket launchers. Let them open their eyes.”
Zhao Liang immediately disagreed.
"Deputy Director Gong! Who are you going to hit with these things? There weren't many things to begin with, and there was no place to replenish them. It was better to use them in places where they were more needed. Also, if they ask for it, are you going to give it to them or not?”
This time, everyone felt a little awkward. It was not good to use it or not use it. There were pros and cons to each!
In the end, Li Hailong suggested,"
"I think we need to show our strength. Otherwise, people will not be convinced in their hearts! How about this, I think we should organize an armed live-fire drill and let them watch: The weapons on land were 56.5 rifles and grenades. Machine guns and rockets were not shown for the time being. They still needed to be kept secret! And there are only two fishing boats on the sea. Just the speed alone is enough for the locals to savor for a while! This way, first, we can reorganize our military forces on the island. Second, we can also strengthen the cooperation between everyone. What do you think?”
"I think so! This way, the bullet would not be damaged much, and the impact would not be small!”
"I have a question. What formation should we use for the drill? They wouldn't line up and wait to be shot, right?”
"That formation? Only you will go! I'm not going…"
"Of course, we will still play the same way as our future generations! Why did he think of that queue? Have you practiced it before?"
"No! What I mean is that we have some offensive or defensive formations, which are trained for the combat methods of the future. Whether it's domestic or foreign, they're all using the human wave tactic now. Should we give them a new set according to the actual situation?”
When everyone heard this, it did make sense. However, it seemed that no one was interested in getting another set. Zhao Liang, on the other hand, had an idea.
" How about this? Let's get rid of the complicated fortifications and disguises in the future and make some simple and practical ones. We don't have much time left, so there's no need to make too many changes. Then, we can bring some rubber bullets and grenades over during the exercise. We should be able to make it in time…"
Everyone agreed. Even Gong Xue Ming agreed that it was simple, time-saving and practical! At the same time, he also proposed a number of feasible plans. Finally, he decided on the content, location, and time of the exercise. He first organized his own people and selected some locals who performed well in the training to participate. This would not only increase their enthusiasm, but also improve their combat quality. It could also increase the cohesion of other locals.
The meeting confirmed that Commander Wang would be the commander of this exercise, Deputy Director Gong and Li Hailong would be the deputy commanders, and Captain Zhou would be responsible for the security around the island. Zhao Liang and Tao Xuelong were in charge of the security of the port, while Jie was in charge of the security of the county.
At the same time, according to Zhao Liang's suggestion, he also gave specific job titles to the few staff members originally arranged in the local area. Each of them was divided into different management areas, and they were prepared to take over the local management. They were selected from the local people to increase the management manpower.
The meeting also confirmed Li Hailong and Zhao Liang as the specific person-in-charge of contacting the Blackwater Party and designated the necessary policies and measures.
With such a distribution of work, Zhoushan seemed to have established another system, but the operation in all aspects was much smoother. Some people joked that although it was small, it had all the five internal organs!
As the water forces had not yet been fully developed, Li Hailong's current task was to strengthen his understanding and contact with the Blackwater Party. In the past two days, he hid on the ship whenever he had time to catch up on the history of this aspect that everyone remembered. Unfortunately, no matter how much he tried to catch up, he could only get a rough idea! Naturally, no one knew the details. For example, there was no record of the Black Water Party having a military advisor!
So he could only go to the ferry boat often and hang out with Wang Genbao. But he was able to skillfully shake the oar-he hadn't touched this oar for many years! Although the transport boat was prepared, it was only for show. It was usually stuffed when it reached the shore.
As for Wang Genbao, ever since he had established a relationship with the Black Water Gang and the Self-Defense Forces, he had been paying attention to them. He had been observing the movements of the Self-Defense Forces on the ferry every day. Now that Li Hailong was by his side, he naturally asked questions whenever he had the time! Li Hailong also took advantage of this plan to inquire about the Blackwater Party. This way, the two of them chatted happily, and both sides were satisfied with the information they needed.
One day, when there was no one ferrying, Wang Genbao asked Li Hailong again,"
"Commander Li, why do you have so many things that I've never seen before? Where did all these come from? I haven't even seen it in the foreign country!”
"Haha, Brother Huang! You will have these things soon! "I'm not happy with you saying that we made these things ourselves. However, I have to tell you that we have to be cultured to make these things. In other words, everyone has to learn to read, read, and understand the blueprints. Otherwise, it won't be useful. It's a waste!”
"Commander Li, according to what you said, won't this scholar have to work like those servants?”
"Sigh! Brother Huang, why are you still the same after I've talked to you for a few days…I've always said that in this world, whether it's studying, being an official, working in the fields, fishing, or even doing business, everyone has the same status! There was no distinction between high and low. Everyone relied on their own abilities to earn money and spend it!”
"According to you, isn't the world going to be in chaos?”
"Haha, that's just your imagination, right? En, let me ask you this. In what way do you think this official is better than you?”
"They read more books than me, see more than me, and earn more money than me…"
"Hehe, then where are they inferior to you?”
"Worse than me? How can they be worse than me…They are better than me in everything.”
"Oh? Then how are their rowing skills compared to yours?”
"This…hehe…this is worse than me…"
"If you don't row the boat for them and they want to cross the river, what should they do?”
"Then... then they will find someone who is willing to help them row the boat..."
"What if no one who knows how to row will help them?”
"How could this be? How could there be someone in this world who wouldn't help a government official?”
" Haha, if the official refuses to help you, then why do you have to help him…"
Before Wang Genbao could continue, someone on the shore shouted,"
"Ferry! The ferry is coming!"
Wang Genbao could only stop asking, but Li Hailong did not forget to add,"
"Brother Huang, think about this problem! Haha!"
