1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 432, Preparations for the Uprising

When Mr. Sun Wen found Chen Guang, he did not expect Chen Guang to be like those passionate young people. He would join his Xingzhong Club after just a few words. In fact, he came to Chen Guang and his main purpose was to get support from weapons. He knew that Chen Guang also had a certain influence in McDonald's Infantry Weapons Company, and he might be able to obtain cheap and good-quality weapons for their operations. In addition, Chen Guang and a group of people also have a certain influence in the Chinese circle in North America. Through him, they can also greatly increase the influence of their organization among the Chinese in North America. In Mr. Sun’s plan, his revolution To a large extent depends on the support of the Chinese in North America.

"Mr. Chen, to tell you, we plan to launch an uprising against the Manchu Qing Dynasty soon. For this, we need some weapons. I know Mr. Chen you may have access to these aspects, and Chongguang also told me that you are A patriot who hates the traitorous government of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I think you must be willing to help us."

"Mr. Sun." Chen Guang thought for a moment, and replied, "Weapons is not a big problem. As you may know, I have some connections with McDonald's Infantry Weapons Company, and it's always a good thing to have business. I also want to thank Mr. Sun for taking care of our business. It’s just Mr. Sun. From my personal experience, I think your actions may have been rushed.

Indeed, the Manchu Qing government is as unpopular as you said. It is like a bad house. As long as you kick the door, the whole house will fall down. But kicking this kick also requires skill. The Macdonald Infantry Weapons Company’s weapon is the best in the world, but its effectiveness depends on the training of the people who use it. You know, the Cuban Resistance and the Manchu Qing Huai Army both used the weapons of the Macdonald Infantry Weapon Company, but their performance in the battle was one heaven and one underground. The fighters of the Cuban Resistance Organization have been systematically studied and trained in Blackwater, so they have performed well; in eastern Cuba, they have basically obtained autonomy. On the contrary, although the Huai Army in the Qing Dynasty also hired Heishui instructors at the beginning, they quickly gave up because of funds or other reasons that they could not make it to the table. Later, they almost completely abandoned our training model. Go back to their old ways. As a result, even though the Huai army had better guns than the Japanese, it was still beaten like a fool by the Japanese. So although weapons are important, training is even more important in order to succeed.

Your association will expel the Tartars and restore China in the future. Wars will always be inevitable in the future, right? Our company can not only provide combat personnel training, but also has contact with the West Point Military Academy, and can help arrange your members to enter the West Point Military Academy to learn combat command. In my opinion, your club is now starting up, and you should lay a solid foundation first. Just like the Southern King and the others, they began preaching in Guangxi in the 23rd year of Daoguang (1844). They prepared for six years before they started their work in Jintian. With this kind of preparation, we have the talents of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who later attacked the world. If the Heavenly King Nanwang had only preached a teaching for a few months in Guangxi, he would have rushed to raise an uprising, then Qing Yao was afraid that he would be able to settle the uprising by just sending a few government servants and the like. Even if the knife meets them, they are fully prepared for the incident. "

Hearing what Chen Guang said, Mr. Sun Wen shook his head slightly. He knew that what Chen Guang said was not unreasonable, but if he really wanted to do what Chen Guang said, it would take considerable time and considerable financial support. . Mr. Sun still doesn't know where the Cubans got so much funds, but at present, their Xingzhong Club really can't come up with so much funds. Its source of funds is largely dependent on the financial support of overseas Chinese, and the economic strength of overseas Chinese in this era is actually very limited, not to mention that Mr. Sun has not done anything, how can people spend a lot of money? Where does the capital come in? Therefore, Mr. Sun feels that these things are later things, and now he must do a big thing first, attract enough attention, and then he can consider the following issues.

However, Mr. Sun did not intend to talk to Chen Guang too much about these matters. Earlier, Chen Guang used the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to preach, and the Little Sword Society’s uprising was not unreasonable, but he obviously regarded his Xingzhong Society as an organization like the God Society and the Little Sword Society. To be honest, Mr. Sun is not disgusted with this kind of organization, but he feels that this kind of organization has fallen behind with the times. In modern times, it should be a Western-style political party that can truly lead a country to re-emerge. Like the Republican Party or the Democratic Party of States.

Of course, this view will definitely be laughed at by Scrooge, because in Scrooge's view, all Republicans and Democrats are now nothing more than vests for him and Morgan and others. The organization of the Republican Party and the Democratic Party is very loose, because United States does not rely on these two parties to fight the world at all. These two parties are essentially clubs of people with similar political views that were established after the country was established. Establishing a revolutionary party according to their model is just like Schwarzenegger's painting of Xi Tzu.

Seeing that Mr. Sun insisted on launching an uprising first, Chen Guang didn't persuade him much, he also faintly guessed what Mr. Sun meant. On Rivers and Lakes, a new gang has to do one or two big things first if it wants to make a name. He thinks that the big thing that Mr. Sun is going to do recently is just for this purpose. After all, with the current power of Xingzhonghui, it is almost impossible for a guy to overthrow the Manchu.

"Well, what does Mr. Sun need? If it is for field battles, then I suggest you choose the latest McDonald's 1864-3 carbine. This type of rifle is shorter than the standard rifle, and it is convenient to carry and hide. Of course, its effective range has dropped slightly, from 700 meters of the prototype to 600 meters. But this actually has no effect, because at this distance, people are as small as ants, and they can’t even be seen. In fact, apart from salvos on the battlefield, there is basically nowhere to use a range of more than 400 meters. The normal price of this gun is 21 dollars, which is less than 18 taels, but If you buy it in Hong Kong, you will definitely not be able to buy it at such a price, because there are shipping costs, plus all foreign companies have to make money. So in the Hong Kong market, the price of this item is generally more than 30 US dollars, and, Ordinary people can’t buy them at all. But if Mr. Sun needs them, and the quantity is large, and the order can exceed 1,000, I can lead a line to see if I can get the guns through smuggling. If it is delivered in Hong Kong Goods, I can give you a price of twenty-five dollars each, if it is delivered in the mainland, each gun can be another one dollar cheaper-hehe, Mr. Sun also knows that the marine police in Hong Kong are much better than those in Manqing NS."

"Mr. Chen laughed. We have just started the meeting now. Where do we use so many guns." Mr. Sun smiled and replied, "We will definitely need such guns in the future, but we don't have so many guns now. In addition, we will only have such a small number of people now, and it is unlikely that a field battle with the Qing army will be possible."

"In that case, your club is planning to riot in the city. Did you move? Well, Guangzhou is good. Whether it succeeds or not, as long as it is activated, it can shake the world." Chen Guang said with a smile, "If it is a city battle, I have this Several weapons can be recommended to you, one is the MacDonald 1885-2 short-barreled shotgun, which fires five rounds at a time and is unstoppable at a distance of about 170 feet. The price is not expensive. North America is 18 dollars. Here, the mainland delivery counts you 22 dollars. Then there is the MacDonald 1890 submachine gun. It uses 9mm pistol ammunition, 30 rounds of magazines, and has good accuracy within 300 feet. Fighting in the city Among them, one can be worth ten ordinary rifles, which is a bit more expensive. Each in North America costs thirty-five dollars, but it is really worth the price. If Mr. Sun needs it, I can also use forty dollars. You can call the shots. In addition, there are pistols. If you want to buy a submachine gun, then buy McDonald’s "Black Star Pistol", which is reasonable in size, powerful, and reasonable in price. You can buy one here for fourteen dollars. If you want to buy a submachine gun, You don’t plan to buy a submachine gun, so MacDonald’s "Green Anaconda" large combat pistol is good, almost worth half of a submachine gun, but the price is a bit higher, it costs 23 dollars here, and, compared to ' Black Star', it's also a lot bigger.

In addition to guns, grenades are also very important weapons. This thing is easy to store and carry, powerful, easy to use, and can be used after a little training. It is absolutely inexhaustible to use in urban battles. The price is not too expensive. It is really an indispensable weapon for home travel and anti-rebellion. Mr. Liu Yongfu from Taiwan has ordered a lot, so I can intercept a little bit from here and sell it to you at the North American price. Five dollars each. I think Mr. Sun should buy some too. I don't know how much Mr. Sun needs. "

Mr. Sun Wen considered for a while, and said: "I have to go back and discuss this matter with my comrades, but I can definitely give Mr. Chen an answer tomorrow. How?"

Chen Guang stood up and said with a smile: "It's okay, I will stay in Hong Kong for several days. It's completely too late."

...

When Mr. Sun went out, Chen Guang also went out immediately and got into a rickshaw. After a while, I arrived at Fidelity International. This Fidelity Firm is an enterprise under the Macdonald Consortium, and now it is Mr. Stephen, an old friend of Chen Guang, who is in charge of the operation of the firm. Chen Guang got out of the car at the door of the foreign company, and the doorman of the foreign company recognized Chen Guang, so he went straight upstairs, walked to the door of the general manager's office, and knocked on the door.

"Who? The door is unlocked, please come in." Stephen said without looking up, sitting behind the boss's desk.

"I." Chen Guang answered as he opened the door and walked in. "I have one thing that I need to contact the senior management of the company."
