Section 88: Guards
"Wufeng, you should stay in Hanzhong for one night. Princess Yutang happened to be inspecting Hanzhong. You have not met her for a long time. The situation in the north is already like this and cannot be changed by human power. I feel that the military is calling for military expansion now. Even Lord Ling, who has not expressed his opinion for so long, seemed to be a little loose, especially the Taiping Army dared to come to the door, which made the military officials very angry. Now the army of His Highness King Jin has entered Jincheng again. All parties believe that there is an excuse to expand the military, and the public's approval of the establishment of the Guanxi Army is also increasing day by day."
Su Jie's strong and graceful body looks even more sexy after being moisturized by rain and dew. Rose essential oil exudes a rich but not greasy sweet fragrance. This is Wufeng's favorite smell, maybe it's to suit his preferences, maybe it's a common hobby. In short, when you smell this faint fragrance, Wufeng feels that he is distracted and unable to concentrate.
The white wrists are as snow, the jade fingers are as green onions, Wufeng pinched the other party's slender hands, and smiled and said, "Ajie, you are so generous, you take the initiative to push your man out? This is the first time I have encountered this. The military's request? Of course, they hope to expand the army endlessly, and satisfy the so-called sense of honor and accomplishment, or vanity. As for public opinion, don't look at the officers who are silent, they are all smart. They try to exaggerate and threaten the public in different ways, as if the northwest will be defeated by foreign enemies overnight. Those businessmen are as timid as mice and have short-sighted eyes. Naturally, they hope that the more troops the stronger the army, they will be better. They don't
Regardless of whether your finances can support it, how many news media can respond to objective facts independently and impartially? How many so-called situation critics can truly see the long-term development of the situation? They are still analyzing based on the situation dynamics they have. Can we say that the intelligence and information obtained by our senior management are not as good as them? Or the group of people raised by our Joint Staff Secretariat are not as good as theirs? These media public opinion has only gained some benefits from businessmen and intends to set off this trend. I have asked people from the internal affairs department to intervene, and it is necessary to strengthen the inspection of the news media."
The carriages ran on the road leading to Hanzhong from Bashan. Within 30 meters left and right, front and back, there were all the guards without the front guards. Their clothes were obviously different from soldiers from a cavalry brigade of the Northern Luzon Second Division who came to escort them at the forefront. They had light purple close-fitting clothes and covered with cloaks of the same color. Most of them were middle-aged men between the ages of thirty and forty-five, with different heights, fatness and thinness. Sometimes there were several heroic women in purple clothes, and the weapons they carried were different.
These are the senior guards who were reorganized into the Guard Division and recruited and selected according to the special security forces. It is natural to say that their martial arts requirements are strictly selected, especially their origins have undergone strict selection. First, they must be major martial arts sects and gangs in the Wufeng territory, or territorial sects that are closely attached to Wufeng and Yu Wufeng already has deep interests. They must be screened and recommended by their respective sects, and then jointly guaranteed by the heads of major sects or first-level elders to be shortlisted for the second level. The next is the review of their family background, character and ideological status. They must be strictly identified and even harshly identified by the security department, so that they can become Wufeng's true personal guard.
Whether it is the major sects and gangs in the Western Xinjiang territory or the sects outside the territory that have a stake in Wufeng, they all regard the selection of Wufeng's guards as a special event that concerns the future rise and fall of their sects. The disciples who select to participate in the election are often the leading figures in all aspects of the sects. Due to Wufeng's special living habits, Wufeng often has internal subordinates to follow when inspecting public servants when he goes out, so he specially recruits and selects some female guards, which also gives great opportunities to sects such as the Snow Mountain Sect, the Tianshan Sect and the Huanfeng Sect.
As Wufeng's territory is growing, its influence in the empire and even the entire Eastern and Central Continents is increasing day by day. Wufeng has actually become an indispensable giant in the Eastern and Central Continents, especially the Eastern Continents. With the increase of its power, the threat to Wufeng's personal security is also increasing. At home and abroad, military, political, religious, and tyrannical forces from all sides may use assassination and assassination to capture the thief and king to eliminate the threat and pressure from the northwest. Wufeng's security affairs are increasingly becoming the most worrying issue for the security departments.
While strictly selecting guards, Wufeng also agreed to increase his personal guards from the original thirty to ninety, and each trip was divided into about 60 people in two shifts and were responsible for travel safety. The development of the Bashan Gu family, which cooperated with the northwest, has allowed Wulin sects in Wufeng's territory to see hope of transformation from the lower nine streams to government officials. This kind of living example is often more convincing than any factor, and especially after Yan Qingrong served as the director of the Longdong Interior Affairs Office, it deeply inspired the yearning of these sects.
Qingye Sect, Daxiangguo Temple, Kongtong Sect, Tianshan Sect, Liuhe Sect, Bashan Gu Family, Xueshan Sect, Huanfeng Sect, Emei Sect (the largest martial arts sect in Guanxi, the mountain is located in the border area between Hanzhong and Jincheng. Mount Emei is a rare Buddhist and Taoist mountain. Mount Emei is a Buddhist holy land in the south, Mount Emei is the 108th Taoist heaven in the west, and the head of the sect is controlled by disciples of Buddhism and Taoism in turn). Qingcheng Sect (the second largest martial arts sect in Guanxi, the mountain is located in Jincheng, and is also a famous Taoist holy land in the empire), Tang Sect (located in Lujiang Prefecture City, Guanxi Wulin Family, and the Jianghu forces in the Guanxi area second only to the Emei Sect and Qingcheng Sect in the Qingcheng Sect) and other major martial arts sects have joined several consecutive selection competitions, making the selection of guards of Wufeng the most fierce competition.
In several consecutive waves of selection, more than 300 outstanding disciples of major sects participated in the election. In addition to Wufeng's original guard candidates, the 60 candidates were quickly determined. Among the remaining personnel, the security department selected 100 of them. As the personal guards of important officials of the Western Xinjiang Protectorate Office, such as Xiao Tang, Ling Tianfang, Su Qin, Wang Zongxi, Molun, and Rao, most of the remaining personnel joined the Security Bureau, Intelligence Agency or Military Intelligence Bureau. Personnel who joined the Guards or other departments could take up their posts after short-term training at the Northwest Military Academy, which also became an important competition for major sects to show their sect strength.
Through this method, the Northwest not only successfully controlled the forces from all over the world under its command, but also made a group of forces more keen on serving the Northwest. They hope to use this way of loyalty to the master to express their loyalty to get rid of the suppression situation and situation of hostility and contempt by rulers in all dynasties. Of course, no one can clearly explain whether this idea can be realized. These historical allusions have occurred between those in power and those in the world. However, some forces in the world have suddenly become successful in the era of reform in which the new regime replaced the old regime because they stood in the right direction. The ruler is always the final winner. No one can see through this principle. People are willing to look at the beautiful side, and often ignore more cruel side. Only when the dust settles will they know the true ending.
Retracting his eyes from the guards outside the window, Su Jie's mood was a little indescribable. These guards used to be of different sects like him, but now they can sit in the carriage leisurely and enjoy the cool breeze. However, they need to observe the surrounding situation vigilantly at any time. Whenever there is an abnormality, they must first maintain the safety of the characters in the carriage. The difference in identity makes Su Jie even feel that there is some barrier between her senior sisters and sisters from the same family, especially the girls of Xiangshaina, who feel that she has seized the favor that should belong to them, which makes Su Jie feel even more disappointed.
It is said that women's hearts are elusive, but Su Jie found that the heart of the man sitting beside her is even more difficult to guess. Whether he is greedy for his beautiful body or really likes him or just appreciates his talents, Su Jie can never give him a statement. What is his identity in the heart of this man?
"Princess Yutang is your legitimate fiancée. What is my worth? How can I compare it with Princess Yutang?" A faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. Su Jie gently stroked the hair falling from her ears, and her face calmly pulled the topic to the other side: "I think it is not impossible to expand the army properly. Although the daily fiscal revenue cannot afford the current military needs and expenses, the unconventional income in the northwest is already quite considerable. If the funds obtained from Indian and Germans are blindly invested in the financial market, it is not a way to maximize the financial advantages. Sometimes, the necessary military will be added.
