() A brazier was lit, and the seven people including Jinclair and Pulitzer sat down around it. Jinclair spoke first: "Mr. Morgan's walking is not slow, but your mining area is still in the north. here?"

Pulitzer sniffed and cursed, 'It's so cold! ', then took out a cigar and lit it, squinting and said: "Stop going around in circles, you all know the intention of my coming here, just go straight... Let me ask you, the 'three-step walk' discussed earlier 'Proposal, is it still valid?"

After Pulitzer's words were finished, King Klay and the other six persons in charge unnaturally looked away slightly, with a slightly embarrassed look on their faces, appearing to be empty-hearted.

"Hehe, Mr. Morgan, as the saying goes, plans cannot be changed..."

It was Jinklai who responded first, and said with a laugh: "This time and that time!"

"That's right, the current situation is different from before departure!" The heads of the other five consortiums also nodded in agreement.

"Hmph, I don't see any difference!" ..

Pulitzer took a deep puff of the cigar, the red cigar head, the bright and dark sparks, as if they were the eyes of the devil, reminding everyone that there is a heavy price to be paid for breaking faith! ', "The only difference is your heart! You get rich when you get rich, your heart becomes smaller, and you are satisfied! I, Pulitzer Morgan, am ashamed to be with you!"

"Pulitzer, what are you talking about! Are you laughing at us?"

The person in charge of the Goldman Consortium, West Allen, shouted with his eyes wide open.

"Is not it?"

Pulitzer glanced at West Allen with disdain, and licked his cigar: "If you are not satisfied with the status quo, why did you dismantle part of the security forces in the first three mining areas? Humph, don't use' Aboriginal defense' is a shoddy and ridiculous excuse to get at me."

"Ahem..." As the leader of the six consortiums, King Klay had no choice but to speak: "Mr. Morgan, the decision to split up the Security Force was made after discussions between the five of us. Is it? It’s inappropriate not to keep any defensive strength, Alaska has many mountains and lush forests, and there are also many ferocious beasts..."

"Excuse!"

Pulitzer didn't buy it at all. He lit King Clay with a cigar.The red-hot soot almost flew onto Jin Kelai's beautiful blond hair: "It's all an excuse! You see Schmidt's escort leaving without a fight, and you feel relaxed! You see the other small consortiums for nothing I’m jealous after harvesting a small gold mine! You guys, why are you so short-sighted?! So what if Schmidt’s guards are gone? They have feet on them, won’t they come back? Hehehe, as long as they don’t Knocked down by us, ready to come back anytime! Don't forget, they're 5000, 5000 with rifles!"

Pulitzer got louder and louder.Almost caught up with the roar: "With your wisdom, can't you see that this is Schmidt's strategy? He is retreating and throwing a few insignificant small gold mines to divide us! As long as we are not united, he will You can firmly use the contract to crush us and imprison us! King Klay, West, Aimoang... Are you willing to spend so much money and bring so many people? Just come to this corner of Alaska Work for a small geology teacher? What about taking back [-]% of the profits? What about occupying the port? What about kicking Schmidt out of the game and carve up the big cake in Alaska?"

Pulitzer's rant.It made King Klay and the others startled. They looked at each other, and they all saw a trace of shame in each other's eyes: Yes, we were blinded by petty profits for a while. But it was like a great drink.Come in time!

"Mr. Morgan, we did this wrong!"

As the person in charge sent by the Rockefeller family, it is his advantage to correct mistakes: "We all listen to you, what do you say now? Should we go to the guards to fight? But the problem is, we have passed It's been more than ten days in the Denali Mountains. None of Schmidt's escorts have been seen! If there is no accident, they should all retreat to Guangming Village in the north!"

"It doesn't matter if they don't show their heads, if they hide for a while, can they hide for a lifetime?"

Pulitzer was confident, his eyes flickering: "We only need to ask to meet with Schmidt, can he still refuse? Schmidt comes out, will he not bring an escort? When the time comes, we will fight Schmidt head-on What a great opportunity! What we have to do now is to gather the strength of the security forces and stop spreading them out!"

Pulitzer turned his head around and asked slowly: "Everyone, please report the strength of your troops and see how many people you can get together! I'll come first, the Morgan consortium, [-] security guards..."

Jin Kelai's eyes flashed, and he still said: "The Rockefeller family, security guard 430..."

"380..."

"360 five..."

... After reporting the heads of the seven chaebols, the total number of security guards is 2875!

"Fortunately, not many people have been lost."

Pulitzer threw away the cigar butt, and glanced at everyone like a falcon: "In order to prevent the source of troops from being scattered again, I think the security forces of our seven families should be integrated and managed together!"

Jin Kelai's heart skipped a beat: Well, this Pulitzer, who has gained power without mercy, is really going to seize the command right!

Ever since Pulitzer asked each family to report the number of soldiers, King Klay had a premonition that Pulitzer Morgan would take advantage of his own losses to control the security forces completely.

"I agree!"

King Klay made his statement first, and to the surprise of others, he added: "I think Mr. Pulitzer Morgan should be in charge of these 2875 people. Among us, he is the only one who can see the situation clearly. He leads the security forces." , will definitely defeat Schmidt's guards!"

As the temporary head of the six consortiums, King Klay agreed. Although West and the others felt uncomfortable, they had nothing to say, so Pulitzer Morgan successfully obtained the military power of the Security Army.

Even Pulitzer himself was a little surprised at how smooth it was. Originally, he thought it would be a tough fight!

There was a faint smile on the corner of Jinklai's mouth, and he didn't care at all.He Jinklai is a pure businessman, commanding veterans to fight?He would not do such a dangerous thing. Since Pulitzer himself volunteered, he was of course happy to sit back and enjoy the rewards.

Everyone is not a member of the army, and military power is not a fragrant bun.It's a hot potato!It's good for the security forces led by Pulitzer to win, but if they lose, the Morgan family will have to bear the blame!

Some people have to ask, if the Pulitzer wins, the right to speak will be greatly increased, and won't the benefits be more?actually not.These security forces are essentially mercenaries. Whoever pays more money will work for them. There is no loyalty. The security forces defected and taught Pulitzer an unforgettable lesson!

"Mr. Morgan, I have a question."

After Pulitzer took over the rosters of the various security forces to his heart's content, King Klay asked.

"Yes. Please tell me, Mr. Mai Li!"

"Mr. Morgan's plan is very good, but what if Schmidt is too timid and refuses to go south? Have you considered this issue?"

"Oh, Mr. Mai Li asked a good question!"

There was a hint of mockery in Pulitzer's eyes, and he smiled and said: "Schmidt will not stop coming. If he doesn't come, we will use the reason of inconvenient transportation. Start... repairing, building, railways, and roads!"

Repairing the railroad is definitely a coup, back in Portland subcontracting. Jp. Morgan and Carnegie fought each other and promised to build the railway to the desolate and remote Alaska. Everyone knows it!Now that Carnegie's people have not shown up in Alaska, no one can say that Pulitzer has repaired the railway on behalf of the Morgan consortium!

Because this is no longer within the scope of negotiations with Schmidt Mining Company, it can be raised to the political height of the US government for the benefit of the people of Alaska!

Schmidt can't shrink back?Well.We'll build the railroad to his door, and bring in cannons to blow his ass out!

After thinking about it, King Klay and the others immediately figured out all this, and they couldn't help sighing: The Morgan consortium has good means, it seems that JP Morgan and President Harrison.Already had such a leg!

At this point, Kinclair also understood why Pulitzer took the initiative to embrace the hot task of being in charge of the security forces. It turned out that everything was a foreshadowing for this "railway repair"!Once the military power of the Security Army is in hand, King Klay and others will not have the slightest restriction on the Morgan consortium's construction of the railway.

It's the same even if troops are sent in from outside, Pulitzer can completely incorporate them in the name of defense guards!In short, unless the face is torn apart, the chaebol represented by King Klay and others can only watch the fat meat of the "Alaska Railroad Network" fall into the mouth of the Morgan consortium!

Pulitzer made a brilliant move in Mingyue Village, and the leaders of Huaxia Town were not idle. They still gathered in the base village, lighting up the night... watching the latest information from the front line sent back by 'Tianyantong' riding Nightmare .

The 'front line' here is constantly moving north, with the northernmost end of the convoy of these chaebols as the yardstick.

The specific information was read by some young people. While reading, they selected the most important information and read it to Long Bo and others.

"How many gold mines have been re-mined? The miners are the residents who insist on staying?"

"Those 'security forces' have diverted a lot of base villages along the way?"

……

"The convoy of the Morgan consortium suddenly turned around and went to Mingyue Village? There were already six major consortiums stationed there, including Rockefeller, DuPont, Lehman Brothers, Goldman, Loeb, and Citigroup?"

Hearing this, Uncle Long's drooping eyelids opened, and others like Thunder Dragon, Long Ganruo, Xie Zhi, Liu Keyang and others also woke up from their slumber, their eyes were as bright as light bulbs, shining brightly.

"Chen Yulun, is this news true?" Long Bo asked.

"The news is absolutely reliable. This is sent back urgently by the Tianyantong elite team riding Nightmare Malaysia!"

After the last insider incident, Chen Yulun became more mature and stable. While sorting out other information, he replied in an affirmative tone: "Now Tianyantong and the servants of the SS regiment are all on the outskirts of Mingyue Village. If there is any change, I'll get the message right away!"

"very good!"

Long Bo squinted his eyes and looked around: "Everyone, what do you think of this news?"

Xie Zhi was the first to speak: "I think they should have noticed our strategy of showing weakness and dividing them. Now that Morgan and Rockefeller are meeting, they are going to discuss the next step together!"

Long Bo asked, "What's the plan?"

Lei Long said: "No matter what the plan is, the first thing they have to do is to integrate the security forces and unify the military power. They will not be baited by the few gold mines we left behind, so they will divide the manpower, Weakened strength."

Long Ganruo thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "If I'm not wrong, they will definitely find an opportunity to take the initiative to fight with our Dragon Scale Army and win a victory. Otherwise, they have different ideas and can't get together!"

Liu Keyang grinned, ready to fight: "If you want to fight, as long as Uncle Long agrees, our Dragon Scale Army will guarantee to beat the heads of these Yankees back into their crotches!"

Long Bo shook his head and smiled playfully: "If he wants to fight, should we fight him? Now the Yankees can't even touch our shadow, we don't move and don't show up. What's wrong with them?"

Liu Keyang said disappointedly: "Huh? You still have to avoid these Yankees, brothers are about to get sick!"

"Squeeze. I have to hold back if I get sick!" Long Bo sneered, "The time to go to war is not yet, let these Yankees mess around and make people angry, so we can come out and clean up the mess! Besides, Even if we want to fight, we must force them to fight on the site we designated, and once the fight starts, we must ensure that no one is missed and wipe out the other party. Avoid future troubles!"

"Huh, I can guess what the Morgan consortium will probably do...to force us to show up and fight them."

At this time, a voice sounded from the corner, and everyone looked over, and it turned out that it was Schmidt who spoke!

Schmidt touched his big nose, and said in a deep voice: "They will definitely ask me to meet in the past to discuss matters in the mining area. When the time comes, the guards following me will be their targets!"

Zhou Xiang interjected: "You know it's a trap, so don't go there! Cut. They dare to come and bite you?"

"If you don't go, I'm afraid it won't work..."

Schmidt sighed, and picked up a piece of information, which was a blurry photo, which was obviously taken by a member of Tianyantong: "Look at the photo above, most of the equipment and supplies loaded in the Morgan convoy Not for mining, but for... building railways!"

Repair the railway?

After hearing this, most of the people present were puzzled and their eyes were blank: Morgan brought people here, not to dig mines but to build railways?Then let him fix it!

"Fix the railway?"

While everyone was at a loss, Long Ganruo stood up abruptly, and said with an angry look: "Morgan, how dare he? Who gave him the right to build the railway, huh? This is Alaska, and this is Huaxia Town. It's not his turn to repair it!"

As the leader of the development and construction team, Long Ganruo knows more about railways than the group of "soldier ruffians" who only know how to fight. He has consulted with Long Hao in private, and also with Falcao's engineers who are under house arrest. They talked with each other, which made him deeply understand: the railway can promote the rapid development of Alaska, and at the same time, it will also broaden the passage between Huaxia Town and the outside world. The railway is a double-edged sword, and it must be controlled in his own hands!Only when you hold the hilt yourself, can this double-edged sword only kill the enemy and not hurt yourself!

Therefore, the railway can be repaired, but it must not be repaired by the Morgan consortium!

"Probably mandated by Congress!"

Schmidt said: "In any case, Alaska is still part of the United States. Congress can use the name of 'helping the development of Alaska' to force the laying of railroad tracks here, and the Morgan consortium happens to hold a majority of the shares of the Union Pacific Railroad Company. It's qualified to build a railroad!"

"If I don't hide..."

Schmidt's eyes glowed, and he continued: "Morgan will lay the rails first. At that time, Morgan's construction of the railroad will become an established fact. No matter how it is changed in the future, they will exist in Alaska's rail network. !"

Long Ganruo looked at Schmidt with eyes like snakes, and then at Xie Zhi: "Don't let them succeed! I suggest that the Dragon Scale Army should be dispatched in small groups, disturbing them day and night, and never let them let go A sleeper, a rail!"

Xie Zhi nodded, and was about to agree, but Schmidt said again: "In this way, the guards have exposed their whereabouts? Besides, Morgan must have been prepared for us to destroy the railway construction, and even set up Well, the trap is waiting for us to dig into it, and even if we seize the evidence and disclose it to the outside media, the public opinion in the United States will be very unfavorable to us! So, if they ask to see me, I will go and meet them for a while!"

"That's too dangerous!" Liu Keyang said.

"I, Schmidt, am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Don't forget, I am also a party member!" Schmidt laughed, his face full of determination and no hesitation.

"That's not okay, you can't make unnecessary sacrifices!"

"You know it's a pit, how can you still jump into it?"

"That's right, let's go to Mingyue Village and fight the Yankees at the worst. Let's talk about the consequences after the fight! As the saying goes, history is written by the victors. We won, so we can say whatever we want. Afraid of what kind of public opinion..."

Schmidt was going to Mingyue Village, and most of the people in the room insisted against it. For a while, various voices and tones filled the hut.

"Stop, all stop, noisy, what can we discuss? Cough, listen to the old man!"

Long Bo yelled, adding internal strength to his not so loud words, and suppressed all the noise at once: "Today is just an intelligence analysis, not an agreed action plan, so what if those Yankees gathered in Mingyue Village? Those Yankees consolidated their forces and prepared to count us and Schmidt, so what? Build a railway, even if they laid down the tracks and sleepers, so what? Hasn’t this happened yet? Everyone is frizzy and anxious What is it?" (To be continued.)
