mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 71 A Prophecy

Gao Li took most of the people and dragged the wounded back to Lugangling Village. Fortunately, no one died for the time being.

Zhao Chuanxin is very afraid of death, so it is not easy to explain to his family.

Immediately word spread around town.

A group of Russians were about to pass through the city on foot, but they were beaten back by the Lugangling Village Insurance Team. The old nose was dead, and the blood stained the snow for several miles!

When Zhao Chuanxin wandered around the city, the common people and merchants spontaneously applauded in groups, and what he said was full of compliments.

"Captain Zhao, thanks to you."

"Russians who have suffered a thousand knives will know that we are the common people."

"Kill it well, so that they will never dare to come here again!"

"Captain Zhao, Mr. Li wants to invite all heroes to a feast, so please honor him..."

Zhao Chuanxin looked around with a perspective first, and found no one with hidden weapons and malicious intentions, so he cupped his hands and said: "Fathers, folks, protecting the village is what Zhao should do. But there is one thing that needs everyone's help. The so-called support from all sides, Hongshi Village was looted by the Russian invaders, and the villagers there are starving. There is no need to entertain me, and those who have food will give some food, and those who are strong will contribute to there. The villagers brought them to live, this is a thank you to Zhao."

The crowd was silent at first.

It is hard to give up good money, and it is nothing to have money to eat, drink, and drink. It is absolutely impossible to let them spend money for nothing for the benefit of others.

However, many people saw that the insurance team dragged a wounded man who had been shot back.

In order to protect the common people, they are willing to brave the hail of bullets to fight against the Russian invaders. It seems reasonable for them to do some charity.

Some merchants who wanted to please Zhao Chuanxin stood up and said righteously: "That should be done. I am Hu Jin from the Hu family pharmacy. Today I will pull a cart of grain and send it to Hongshi Village!"

A grain merchant also stood up: "Zhou, who runs a grain shop, is also willing to contribute!"

A vegetable vendor: "I still have half a carload of radishes and cabbages, send them too!"

"..."

Zhao Chuanxin nodded: "Zhao has written it down. If one of you is in trouble, Zhao will definitely not sit idly by."

When an officer saw this scene, he went back and told the county magistrate.

The county magistrate was furious: "He is neither an official nor a gentry, so why should he claim credit and buy fame here? It really makes no sense."

Even so, there was nothing he could do.

He thought for a while, then suddenly called an officer and said, "Go to the Russian camp and tell the Russians about this."

The guard took the order and left.

When he came back, he came back with a bitter face.

"My lord, the chief of the Russian army is no longer Bi Quanke. Although the new chief looks very angry, he said that this matter will be discussed later. Thinking about it, he really won't pass by this road in the future. We don't have a railway here. , don’t have to wade through this muddy water.”

Zhixian is like falling into an ice cave.

Both the general's mansion and the state's mansion are unreliable, and now the Russian soldiers are also afraid of Zhao Chuanxin?

It's really unreasonable. Is there still a king's law?

It's not that he doesn't want to pretend to be a grandson, it's that the servants are now managing the shops in the city, and there's no money to be made.

Anyone who dares to be too presumptuous just needs to notify the insurance team. As soon as the insurance team arrives, the guard will leave in despair.

If you are not angry and want to be aggressive and aggressive, it is uncommon to be whipped twice, or you may even be shot.Those in the insurance team are very arrogant, not only have long guns, but also short guns, which are very convenient, they can be shot out, short distances are unavoidable.

Both magistrates and guards lost a lot of income, and some guards even hid themselves to make a living, and they were unwilling to work at the gate of the yamen.

"Hey, the world is going down, the country will not be the country..."

The magistrate was very moved.

Zhao Chuanxin went home.

He is really confident now.

Just like Yang Yushu back then, his eyeliner was everywhere.

If someone wanted to harm him, as long as he leaked a little information, someone would go to Lugangling Village to inform him immediately.

On February 30th of the [-]th year of Guangxu, the Japanese fought against the left bank of the Yalu River without bloodshed.

On the other side is the Dongman detachment commanded by Russian Lieutenant General Zasulich.The long trenches he built had almost no camouflage, and the artillery positions were completely exposed.

Even if the horse-bearded Du Lisan shook his head when he looked at it from a distance, it was like saying: Come and hit me!
He murmured to himself: "No wonder, that person easily broke through the artillery positions of the Russian army and ostentatiously took away their guns and ammunition. This was the case during the war, let alone before the war started? Could it be that Japan is really going to win?"

On the night of March 30th in the [-]th year of Guangxu, Japan began to attack.

Their goal was to detour the left flank of the Russian army.

The next day, the two sides fought fiercely in Jiulian City!
The artillery positions of the Russian army were not concealed, but the artillery positions of the Japanese army were very concealed.During the battle, the unsurprising daily artillery fire suppressed the Russian army.

Like Liu Yonghe and the others fighting the Russian soldiers, the two sides fought fiercely, and whoever had the loudest thunder would have the upper hand.

Seeing that the opponent was in a strong situation and afraid of being surrounded, Zasulic immediately retreated to Liaoyang.

If Zhao Chuanxin sees it, he must shout that this is too much of a joke.

In fact, in the subsequent Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army tactics evolved, while the national army still played like the Russian army, so it would be strange if they did not lose.

While Zasulich's troops retreated, the 11th Infantry Regiment of East Siberia immediately fell into a passive state, allowing the Japanese army, which had an advantage in numbers, to make dumplings.Although they broke through several times, they still suffered heavy casualties.

This is like opening a door to welcome the Japanese army in.

If Du Lisan in history heard the news, he would definitely applaud.

But now?

"He said it one by one. The Russian army has already been defeated once and opened the door to the Northeast. Could it be that the Japanese are really the number one enemy in the future?"

At this time, he was trading arms with another gangster "Wang Xiaozhuo".

He is in this chaos, and he is ready to join in.

Wang Xiaozhui is small in stature, with a pale complexion and thinning hair, with only a small braid casually combed behind his head.

Du Lisan has a wife surnamed Wang, originally from Shandong, whose real name is Wang Dani'er.

After seeing Wang Xiaozi, Wang Dani pulled the corner of Radu Lisan's clothes.

Du Lisan winked at her, telling her to keep silent at this time.

Wang Xiaozhuo sold a batch of Japanese firearms to Du Lisan. After the transaction was completed and separated, Du Lisan asked Wang Dani, "What's the matter? If any of the two parties made any changes just now, it would cause a dispute, and the gains outweigh the losses."

Wang Dani said to him: "That bratty Wang, he is Japanese!"

Du Lisan was taken aback when he heard the words: "Really?"

"Then it's fake?" Wang Dani was too impressed with Wang Xiaozhuzi.

At the beginning, a Japanese spy named Tian Laoer lied to Wang Dani's body and married her.That little pigtail Wang was on good terms with Tian Lao Er at that time.Later, Wang Dani found out the truth, and after learning that she had been cheated, she chopped Tian Er Er with a kitchen knife.

Later, she became one of Du Lisan's wives.

Du Lisan was in doubt.

Everyone knew that Du Lisan was at odds with the Russians, so this brat Wang was willing to sell him arms at a low price just to let him fight the Russians?

This reminded him of Zhao Chuanxin's words: "The Japanese are all spies now!"

After thinking for a while, Du Lisan said: "No, I have to inform Big Brother Feng Linge that he is getting close to Wang Xiaozhuo, so I have to remind him."

Du Lisan found Feng Linge and said to him: "Brother, Wang Xiaozhui is a Japanese spy. I have confirmed this. A senior person told me before that the Japanese are eyeing the Northeast with evil intentions. We became bandits." , I’ve lost my face. If I become a lackey and a traitor to the Japanese again, I’m afraid I’ll be infamous forever!”

In the green forests of Liao, Feng Linge, who was born as a government official, was the leader of the platoon, and the second most powerful was Du Lisan.The third is the famous Zhang Zuolin, and the fourth is Jin Wanfu.

After hearing Du Lisan's reminder, Feng Linge told Jin Wanfu about it again.

After hearing this, Jin Wanfu not only didn't alienate Wang Xiaozhuo, but got closer to him.

After Du Lisan learned about this, he sneered again and again: "It seems that Jin Wanfu has made up his mind to become a traitor!"

So far, whether it is the direction of the Russo-Japanese War or the fact that the Japanese boxers are spies, Zhao Chuanxin can be said to have come true!
Du Li took three servings!
Therefore, he put a trip to Lugangling Village on the agenda!
Zhao Chuanxin, who was in Lugangling, was quite depressed at this time.

In the diary, he searched all over the mine, sent ammunition to the diary several times, and almost emptied all the "mobs" here, and he didn't find the Stone of Heaven.

I'm worrying about my diary right now...
