Expedition to Europe

Zheng Lingfeng was as resolute as the Lan Fang soldiers. The day after he returned to Yongding Village, he began to organize the villagers in Yongding Village to start training, preparing to train a militia to cooperate with the Marine Corps.

It was not until this time that the villagers in Yongding Village really saw the Lan Fang soldiers.

As Zheng Lingfeng said, there were really not many people brought back by Zheng Lingfeng, only about a hundred people. These people had short hair, jackets, overalls and short boots like Zheng Lingfeng, and spoke kindly, but they could not hide their arrogance in their bones.

It was not arrogance, and there was no feeling of superiority. It was just that kind of distance of "I am different from you", which was not disgusting, but it was indeed eye-catching.

This feeling of keeping people away from others became a confidence in the eyes of the villagers of Yongding Village, so Zheng Lingfeng pulled together a team of more than 500 people in almost one day.

Not only the villagers of Yongding Village, but also people from several nearby Chinese gathering points came to join.

Because they are militia, they don't have to undertake combat missions, just carry a stretcher and clean up the battlefield, so they don't need strict training. Simply set a few rules to let the militia understand that all actions should be under command.

Everything is ready, Zheng Hanxue went to Pado and said that he would invite the civil affairs chief of Pado to Yongding Village to prepare to lure the enemy into a trap.

In fact, there is no need to prepare much. Even if Zheng Lingfeng is willing, he doesn't need to ask the militia for help. Zheng Lingfeng can take down Pado with these hundreds of people.

The hundreds of people led by Zheng Lingfeng are not ordinary soldiers. The Lan Fang Marine Corps has requirements for recruiting people. Although it is not as strict as the special operations brigade, the basic requirements are still a little higher than ordinary soldiers. In addition, the special nature of the Marine Corps requires at least excellent armed swimming results. Such hundreds of people are more than enough to take down Pado.

How can we describe Siam? They are caught between the British and the French, barely surviving. No matter whether it is the British or the French, as long as they start a war against Siam, Siam has no ability to resist. Therefore, the existence of the Siamese army is not for national defense, but to suppress domestic resistance forces. In this way, the quality of the Siamese army can be imagined.

The simplest situation is enough to illustrate the combat effectiveness of the Siamese army. In Siam, even the royal guards use old single-shot rifles, which are the kind that load one bullet per shot and have no magazines at all.

The hundreds of people led by Zheng Lingfeng have all been equipped with the latest B-2 rifles, and are also equipped with the latest 20-type general-purpose machine guns. From the perspective of weapons alone, the Siamese army and Zheng Lingfeng's people are worlds apart. Let alone a city of Padu, even if it is the Siamese palace, Zheng Lingfeng will not spend too much effort if he wants to take it down.

Padu is a county, and the highest civil official is the county magistrate. This county magistrate has a difficult name, and the name "Manu" is generally used.

After receiving Zheng Hanxue's invitation, Manu did not suspect anything and went straight to Yongding Village with a group of people.

Zheng Hanxue invited Manu with the excuse of the tax increase. According to Zheng Hanxue, Zheng Hanxue had summoned the clan leaders and village elders of several villages near Yongding Village to gather in Yongding Village. He invited Manu to go there to seek justice and suppress different voices.

This reason was normal. Manu never thought that Zheng Hanxue, who had always been honest, would plot against him, so he came to Yongding Village with a few people.

If you want to seek justice, you always have to bring a few people, otherwise you won't have the confidence to speak.

Zheng Hanxue was still steady and calm as always. At this point, the arrow had to be shot, and Zheng Hanxue could not be indecisive.

At noon, Manu and Zheng Hanxue entered Yongding Village.

Yongding Village is nominally a village, but in fact it still has a village wall, and there are wooden watchtowers at the four corners, which have a certain self-protection ability when encountering banditry. This is also the fundamental reason why Manu will not offend Zheng Hanxue too hard. If Zheng Hanxue is too hard-handed, it will take a lot of effort for policemen like Pado to break through the village of Yongding Village.

But Chinese people are used to being kind to others. When encountering deliberate difficulties, as long as the knife is not on their necks, they can't bear to do it. Therefore, Zheng Hanxue has always habitually given in to Manu's coercion, which makes Manu more and more strict.

When entering the village, if Manu is more careful, it is not difficult to find the deep hatred in the eyes of the Yongding villagers on the village wall. In fact, even if he finds it, Manu will not care too much. In recent years, with the decline of the social status of the Chinese, Manu has seen too many such eyes. Just look at it, it won't lose a piece of meat, and the taxes to be paid still have to be paid, not a penny less. Manu has long been immune to this level of attack.

Arriving at the ancestral hall, just as Zheng Hanxue said, the ancestral hall was full of people, all of whom were village elders from Yongding Village and nearby villages.

He was still competent, at least the young man Manu sitting in the middle looked very unfamiliar.

"Who are you? Why don't you bow to me?" When Manu entered the ancestral hall, everyone in the ancestral hall stood up and greeted him, but the young man in the middle did not move, which made Manu a little unhappy.

Of course, in the territory of Yongding Village, even if Manu was unhappy, he would not show it on his face. After serving as an official for many years, Manu still had this cunning.

The influence of the Chinese on Siam is still very large. Even Manu, a typical Siamese, speaks Chinese fluently, and it is standard Mandarin, which is different from the Minnan dialect that Zheng Han learned from them.

"You are not qualified." The young man is Zheng Lingfeng, and his words can choke people to death.

"Ha, do you know who I am?" Manu laughed in anger. Even if he is cunning, this cunning is still limited. Perhaps it is because of his consistent strength in front of the Chinese that Manu lowered his guard. In short, when Manu said this, he really felt superior.

"I asked you to come here today to inform you that from now on, I will make the decision on Padu's affairs. Do you agree or not?" Zheng Lingfeng didn't waste time talking to Manu and directly issued an ultimatum.

"Who are you?" Manu was no longer arrogant at this time. The young man in front of him could say such words, so he naturally had the corresponding confidence. Before finding out the details of the young man, Manu did not dare to be arrogant.

Manu is not stupid to be able to become the county magistrate. He knows very well the unfair treatment of the Chinese by Siam. Although he is always strong in front of the Chinese in Siam, Manu knows very well in his heart that if Siam goes too far, Lan Fang will definitely not ignore it. If Lan Fang wants to argue with Siam, the Siamese will never be able to stand it.

So all along, Manu dare not force the Chinese too much. He will still increase taxes and ask for money, but he will never dare to push people to the end. If that happens, no one will be able to escape.

"Can't you see it? Let me introduce myself. I am Zheng Lingfeng, the lieutenant colonel and battalion commander of the 4th Battalion of the 2nd Brigade of the Lan Fang Marine Corps!" Zheng Lingfeng did not hide and showed his name directly.

The largest organization of the Lan Fang Marine Corps is the brigade level, and below the brigade is the battalion level. Zheng Lingfeng can be regarded as a senior officer as a battalion commander in the Marine Corps.

"Lan-Lan Fang!" Manu was a little absent-minded for a moment, and the thing he was most worried about finally happened.

The original text is available at Six # 9 @Books/Bar!

"No - don't move!" Manu hadn't reacted yet, but the police captain who followed Manu reacted quickly and immediately took out his revolver and pointed it at Zheng Lingfeng.

"Be careful, calm down, don't move the gun, it will go off accidentally -" Zheng Lingfeng didn't even look at the policeman, but a man next to the policeman grabbed the magazine of the revolver with lightning speed, his mouth was calm and his hands didn't move at all.

The firing method of a revolver is to rotate the magazine first, and then it can be fired. If the magazine can't rotate, the revolver is almost like a toy.

"Put the gun away, do you want to kill us?" Manu came to his senses and turned around and cursed.

Manu may not know what the "Marine Corps" is, but he still hears the term "Lieutenant Colonel Battalion Commander" clearly. Generally speaking, it is normal for a major to be a battalion commander, and a lieutenant colonel is considered a high-ranking position. From the organization, you can hear that this is not an ordinary unit.

A senior Lan Fang officer appeared in Yongding Village in Siam. What this means is self-evident.

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel - what do you mean by this?" When Manu faced Zheng Lingfeng again, his expression was really bitter, which was uglier than crying.

"Whatever you think it means, that's what it means!" Zheng Lingfeng was not polite. He raised his eyebrows and made a look. The Marines waiting nearby immediately rushed forward and knocked all the policemen who followed Manu to the ground.

At this time, the difference in combat effectiveness can be seen. The burly policeman wanted to resist, but was shaken by a Marine. As soon as he raised his hand to block, he was hit hard in the ribs. Then countless feet kicked him. He immediately had a bruised face and didn't even say the famous "If you have the guts, fight alone".

What a fight, this is not a martial arts competition. It is serious to solve the opponent as quickly as possible. Who will fight with you with guns and cannons? Have you become stupid after practicing martial arts?

"You-you are declaring war, you have to take responsibility!" Manu was really shocked and scared. Although those fists did not hit his body, the sound of the fists hitting his flesh was still frightening.

"Yes, this is a declaration of war!" Zheng Lingfeng finally stood up. He was a whole head taller than the thin Manu. He looked down at him in a very intimidating way: "As for the responsibility, I don't want to shirk it at all. The day you bully our fathers and fellow villagers, you should have this awareness!"

"Beat him, beat him to death!"

"Beat this dog official to death!"

For a moment, Manu really felt the power of the people's war.
