It turns out that Li Mu is still too optimistic.
Most of the famous American celebrities known to Li Mu during the Second World War were familiar names, such as: Eisenhower, Barton, MacArthur, etc. The problem is that it is now 1873. Those famous WWII soldiers were not born yet, so Li Mu looked at the people in front of him. The roster is really at a loss, because none of Li Mu is familiar with it.
Ca n’t say no, Li Mu picked it for more than half an hour, and finally managed to find a few familiar ones, one of them was George Dewey, the other was Alfred Saye Mahan, and the last one was Benjamin. Harrison.
These people were regarded as momentary leaders. George Dewey was the commander of the Asian Fleet in the US-Spanish War 25 years later. In the US-Spanish War, he led the Asian Fleet without a single death and completely wiped out the Manila fleet in Spain. In one fell swoop, he became a famous sea war star. The naval battle has just ended, and the U.S. Congress made it exceptionally convenient to grant the rank of Major General George Dewey in 1898. In February of the following year, Congress promoted George Dewey to the rank of admiral. This is the highest rank in the United States Navy. Dewey is also the only one to receive this honor. Navy commander.
Alfred Saye Mahan is a theoretical expert. Mahan has twice served as the dean of the United States Naval Academy. He is known as the originator of the "Sea Power Theory" and author of "The Influence of Sea Power on History." "The influence of sea power on the French revolution and empire, 1793-1812", "The relationship between the influence of sea power and the war of 1812", "Navy Strategy" and other military works.
After the last Benjamin Harrison was famous, Benjamin Harrison's great-grandfather, also known as Benjamin Harrison, was one of the founding fathers of the United States. He was a representative of the Continental Conference and signed the famous Declaration of Independence; Benjamin Harrison's grandfather William Henry Harrison is the 9th president of the United States; Benjamin Harrison's father is a member of Congress; Benjamin Harrison himself is the 23rd president of the United States, of course, to Benjamin Harrison When he was president, it was already 1889. In 1889, it was the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the inauguration of President Washington, so Benjamin Harrison was called the "100th anniversary" president.
With these people, Li Mu believes that the trip to Cuba will not be so lonely.
But when Sherman saw Li Mu's name, Sherman smiled unconsciously, "Are you sure you want these people?"
"Yes, I want them. Of course, I also need grass-roots officers. The larger the number, the better. It is better to have a company." Li Mu said.
This time it was Sherman's turn and he was almost furious. Sherman gritted his teeth and stared at Li Mu for a long time. Then he squeezed a few words out of his teeth: "You dream!"
A company's grass-roots officers must have at least one hundred people. All of Li Mu's requirements are skilled officers. All of them are good players in the army. Li Mu's plan is that even if the Cubans can't beat the Spanish, there are "special forces" in this company. Li Mu was able to escape in time.
The United States does not have a regular army at this time, so when the United States encounters a war, all states organize volunteers to go to the battlefield to fight, and after each fight, each home and each mother, so there are not many veterans in Sherman's hands, Li Mu The opening was a company, which really scared Sherman.
As for Mahan and theirs, Sherman really doesn't care. Although these people are well-known in the future, they don't look very good now. For example, George Dewey, this guy has been in the crowd since the Civil War. I've been to every important port in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, but have been obscured, and there is nothing to win.
Another example is Ma Han. Now Ma Han has not entered the U.S. Naval Academy, and the "Sea Power Theory" belonging to Ma Han has not formed a systematic theory. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, Ma Han is a neurological disease, although often He made some amazing remarks, but there was no theoretical basis to support it, so Mahan was a famous freak in the US Navy.
In the end, Benjamin, you do n’t need to look at this guy ’s resume, just look at this guy ’s background. How do you think this is a second generation ancestor? Although Benjamin won the rank of general during the Civil War, this glory was brought to him by his family background, and he It doesn't matter to me, what can I do to take him to Cuba? When Xiangrui offered?
No wonder Sherman almost laughed at them when he saw these people!
Li Mu doesn't laugh. Li Mu knows that these people have all kinds of deficiencies, so Li Mu requires a large number of grass-roots officers. For an army, especially the modern army, for small-scale operations, the position of commander really does not. How important is that a large number of high-quality grass-roots officers are the rock in the army.
Li Mu himself does not know how to fight, so Li Mu is really going to rely on George Dewey. Although this guy is notorious now, he is indeed a powerful character. As for Mahan, this is the icon of the future US Navy, and Benjamin is the future US president. Li Mu wanted them to invest in the relationship in advance and lay the foundation for future business, and combat is simply two different things.
Seeing that Sherman was resolute, Li Mu didn't talk nonsense, and he got up and went to find another William, William W. Bernap, the Secretary of War, and Sherman's top boss.
This time it was unimpeded, Li Mu went to Bernap's office for half an hour, spent 10,000 US dollars for a new "python pistol" order, and changed the list by the way.
Ha ha, the wool came out of the sheep. Although this order is not 10,000 pistols, but 5,000 pistols can also bring Li Mu $ 70,000 in earnings, let alone make it, not to mention that the list is not one hundred Individuals, but a full two hundred, presumably Sherman will be annoyed after seeing this list.
Scolding is also useless. Supporting the "Cuba Republic" is a national policy of the United States. If Sherman dares to stalk it, then General Sherman is considered to be the leader.
Of course, complaining is inevitable, so Li Mu went to Sherman and pulled on Ebble.
Abel is the director of the office of the President's Palace, and Grant's brother-in-law. Don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face.
Sure enough, this time it was very smooth. Although Sherman's face was darker than the bottom of the pot, he signed his order with his teeth. Before April 1, everyone on this list must be in New York. With the port concentrated, Li Mu and they will sail to Cuba.
After getting the transfer order and signing a contract to earn some money, Li Mu's mood was finally better. On the way to the train station, Li Mu finally had time to discuss the shipping company with Ebble.
"In fact, our shipping company does not have to stare at the Qing Empire. It now makes a lot of money from the New York to Portsmouth route or the New York to Brest route. The two routes are not far away and can run in one month. One round trip, when we go, we pull the goods, when we come back, we pull back, and a boat can make it back in less than a year. "Abel has fallen into the eyes of money, and his mind is full of money.
Li Mu can't just stare at money. Li Mu also hopes to get people from the Qing Dynasty to balance the population. This will open the route to Europe.
In fact, most of the Chinese people in the United States are men. The proportion of women is very small, and the proportion of children is even smaller. Similar to Zhang Leye, he has been in the United States for more than ten years and has a stable job and a stable income. When I did n’t have a suitable target, I could only find a white girl to start a family. This was also helpless.
If Li Mu does n’t do anything, after two or three generations, the blood will continue to dilute, and the characteristics of the Chinese will become less and less, and the Chinese will be assimilated by white people. Although this objectively proves that the Chinese are integrated into American society, but By no means is Li Mu willing to see.
Therefore, Li Mu's purpose of running a shipping company is very clear: to get women and children from the Qing empire. To get women is to help Chinese Americans start their own businesses. To get children is because of educational considerations. To improve Chinese social status, we must first improve Chinese education level, and children are the easiest to accept new things.
Coming from the Qing Empire to get women and children, it is definitely impossible to make money. Li Mu originally intended to pay for the subsidy, but now that Pierre has made this proposal, Li Mu will not be stubborn. Li Mu ’s requirements are not high anyway. As long as there are one or two cruise ships that have been running the Qingguo and American routes for a long time, the rest does not matter.
"You take care of it. I will go to Cuba during this time. I definitely can't take care of it here. I will take care of the preparations for the company. I will book the boat first. It may take half a year to get the boat. I've all returned from Cuba— "Li Mu has a good abacus and knows that people can make the best use of him. He is much better than Grant. Actually, running a program is something like Pierre.
"No problem, you go, I'm waiting for the news of your victory." Pierre vowed, with a determined expression like a bride to send Lang to the expedition.
Li Mu suddenly felt a cold, and waved to Pierre immediately.
From Washington to Springfield, a day and night train, Li Mu had almost no eyes on the train.
It ’s really impossible to sleep, let Li Mu open a black pit, Li Mu is a martial arts player, but let Li Mu command the army to fight, Li Mu really ca n’t do it, marching is not talking on paper, or it ’s harmful to others, if it ’s a scourge That Roche "Republic of Cuba" doesn't matter, at most, it is a matter of losing some money, but if Ma Han and Benjamin are harmed, Li Mu will definitely get in trouble. Others don't say that if Benjamin has three strengths and two weaknesses, Benjamin's family The members of the sub-parliament and the president certainly cannot spare Li Mu.
So the key is to save your life. Thinking of this, Li Mu decided to speed up the development of grenades after returning. Grenades are simply too important for combat, especially small-scale encounters. It is decisive. If Li Mu was attacked last time, Li Mu, they are equipped with grenades, and they will never be so embarrassed.
In addition to hand grenades, shotguns must also be put on the research and development agenda. In melee, the importance of face killing is definitely more than point killing. If Li Mu had a shotgun in his hand the last time, the big man could n’t get close, and naturally he could n’t. Threatening Li Mu.
With a grenade and a shotgun, Li Mu believed that his trip to Cuba would not be smooth, at least he could retreat from his body.
