When Li Donghan's soul came to this world, he had been thinking about how to go in the future.
His advantage over the others was that he only knew what would happen in the next few years, and it was still a rough idea. After all, who would care about such things? Life could even suppress you until you couldn't breathe!
He didn't have a cheat, and the only thing he could rely on was himself. Therefore, even if he had the memories of the next hundred years, he didn't dare to let his guard down, nor would he underestimate anyone. After all, what he did was a bottomless abyss.
Fortunately, he had inherited Donghan's military knowledge. After all, he had graduated from the Berlin Military Academy. His military knowledge was considered top-notch in China today, and he would be of great help to Donghan in the future.
This was a magnificent era, and China was facing unprecedented changes. Li Donghan was undoubtedly lucky to be able to participate in it personally!
Since the heavens had allowed him to come to this era, he was naturally unwilling to remain unknown. He naturally wanted to leave his name in this era!
Join the Beiyang Military Group and seek refuge with Yuan? This path was not easy to walk. As the most powerful military group in China, Beiyang had existed for decades!
The Beiyang New Army had been established for nearly ten years, and many of its levels had already solidified. As a newcomer who did not have many strong connections in Beiyang, it would take at least ten years or even longer for him to climb up!
In the end, Beiyang did not have a good ending. After Yuan died, the various factions fought for power and a civil war broke out. In the end, they were all destroyed by the bald army!
The other option was to join the Revolutionary Party. Although the Revolutionary Party had won the final victory, they would be living a miserable life in the next ten years!
He had even fled overseas several times and had no place to stay in China. Li Donghan did not have such lofty ideals!
He was just an ordinary person. He had desires and ideas. He was essentially an egoist. For the country and the nation, he would only do it under certain conditions!
Moreover, when he stood at a certain height, his own interests and the interests of the country could be intertwined!
Therefore, Li Donghan decided to rely on his own strength to stir up trouble in this vast era. He wanted to do something for this country and the people!
Let the tragedy of the past not repeat itself and let China become a superpower in the world!
Under such circumstances, when the former Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Renjun, sent out an invitation to Li Donghan, he had agreed!
The first reason was that Eastern Guangdong was a big economic province, but during the 1911 years and the later warlords, its military strength was average. It was only when the Huacheng National Government was established that it could be considered to have shown its edge.
In the end, he even unified the entire country. It could be seen that East Guangdong was a land with a solid foundation and a solid economic foundation!
Secondly, the former governor, Zhang Renjun, was an old friend of Li Donghan's late father. He admired Li Donghan, a young man who graduated from the Berlin Military Academy.
After all, at this time, Delizhi, the number one army powerhouse, was still very famous. The fact that Li Donghan could graduate from the Berlin Military Academy also showed his ability!
With Zhang Renjun's appreciation and some of his father's old friends, Li Donghan's career after entering the new army could be said to be smooth sailing!
He first served as the staff officer of the soon-to-be formed 98th Section and was responsible for its recruitment and training. However, because the standard system had not been determined at that time, Li Donghan was responsible for many things. It could be said that the early 98th Section was established by Li Donghan!
After that, he became the commander of a battalion to accumulate experience. After a year, he officially became the commander of the 98th Battalion, with thousands of elite troops in his hands!
Although there were only a few thousand people, this was a new army! It was not something that the old Green Camp and the patrol camp could compare to!
Even Beiyang only had tens of thousands of new soldiers. This was definitely a decisive force in eastern Guangdong.
As an army that he had built himself, Li Donghan had unparalleled prestige at Mark 98. The commanders of the three battalions and even the team officers and low-ranking officers were almost all his confidants.
Even after Zhang Renjun was transferred out of his position as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Li Donghan's foundation in bid 98 had already been established, and it would be difficult for his successor to shake it!
These 98 lots were Li Donghan's foundation in this era, his capital to dominate in the future. If anyone dared to touch 98 lots, Li Donghan would dare to take their life! Not even the Revolutionary Party!
Moreover, among his 98 bids, he would definitely not allow any revolutionary party to appear. Once they were discovered, they would immediately be dismissed. He had to ensure the purity of his subordinates! They could only obey his orders!
He knew how crazy the revolutionary party was. It would not be good if they wanted to rebel against him! Wasn't the Revolution of 1911 launched by the revolutionary party who incited the new army?
It was also because 98 Biao completely obeyed Li Donghan's orders that 98 Biao did not participate in the uprising of the new army last year.
Knowing that it would be a failure, Li Donghan would not be buried with them. Although the undercurrents of the national unification were surging, in Li Donghan's view, things had not reached an extreme point. It was not time for him to make a move.
In fact, it was precisely because of Li Donghan's attitude toward the Revolutionary Party that the succeeding governors of Guangdong and Guangxi were assured to let him take charge of 98 bids. They were certain that he would not rebel like the Revolutionary Party.
Whether or not they would rebel, and when they would rebel, only Li Donghan himself knew!
"It's almost time!" Li Donghan looked at the sea and murmured in a low voice. He was naturally talking about the event that would shake the entire China in three months!
In the past three years, Li Donghan had been working hard to become a leader. With thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, he believed that he would definitely succeed!
With eastern Guangdong as the foundation, he would spread his strength to the entire country!
"Sir, the ship is here!" Just as Li Donghan was lost in thought, the young officer next to him interrupted his thoughts.
Immediately after, he saw a huge cruise ship appear on the sea. Black smoke spewed out of its long chimney, and a series of horns sounded, breaking the noise of the dock!
Although there were many ships here, they were all cargo ships or even sailing ships. Large cruise ships like this were very rare, so they attracted the attention of many people!
This was a cruise ship from the United States. It was called the Santa Anna and was currently sailing around the world. It was about to stop at Huacheng to let the passengers disembark!
The person Li Donghan was waiting for was also on this ship. Seeing the cruise ship gradually dock on the shore, Li Donghan said,"Let's go over!"
"Yes, sir! My lord!" The young officer beside him said and followed Li Donghan with his bodyguards.
His name was Yang Hongyu, and he was Li Donghan's adjutant. He was also the captain of Li Donghan's personal guards. Although he did not study abroad, he had graduated from the Eastern Guangdong Army Military Academy and was pulled over by Li Donghan to join the 98th bid!
Moreover, he had another identity, and that was Li Donghan's mother's nephew. He was two years younger than Li Donghan and could be considered his cousin!
With this identity, the relationship between the two became much closer. That was why Li Donghan made him his adjutant to protect his safety.
The cruise ship gradually docked, and the tourists on it disembarked one after another. However, the appearance of a figure gave Li Donghan a different feeling!
