Jagged Warlord

24. No matter how good you are

Ran Qingping frowned, and said viciously: "If I don't kill chickens to make an example to monkeys, how can I gain power in the pole? Master, you don't need to say more about this."

Liu Musheng raised his eyebrows, showing a little surprised expression, then stopped talking, just waved the paper fan and went back to his room.Unlike the rooms of other bandits, Liu Musheng's room is like a scholar's study.According to Liu Musheng's own statement, he was a scholar in the former Qing Dynasty, who was framed by a powerful man in his hometown, and had to become a bandit as a last resort.The reason why he did military affairs for Ran Qingping was that he wanted to be like Song Jiang who was moored in Liangshan, and finally achieve the purpose of recruiting security.

However, based on my own observation of Ran Qingping as a military adviser for more than a year, I found that Ran Qingping had no ambitions, and was only satisfied with being a bandit, and he didn't even have the idea of ​​recruiting security, which made Liu Musheng a little disappointed.Eliminating dissidents is good, but too much internal friction is not conducive to the development of the entire team. The Tianjing Incident in the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom is the best negative teaching material.

Liu Musheng secretly thought in his heart that it is really mud that cannot support the wall. It is said in "Sun Tzu's Art of War": The Lord can't be angry to raise the army, and the general can't be angry and attack the war.Now Ran Qingping wanted to do the opposite. If he was lucky, it would be fine, but if he was unlucky, he would lose his prestige in vain.Liu Musheng paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, his brows frowning into a Sichuan character.

The train on the Daoqing Railway still blew its whistle cheerfully, running back and forth between Daokou and Qinghua Town.Jiaozuo Town Railway Station is still busy, and passengers and goods continue to flow.People seem to have forgotten the bandit extortion a few days ago. Mayor Liu also returned to the town government from the Railway Supervision Bureau and started to work normally. All life seems to be returning to normal again.

But this kind of normality did not last long. At noon, I saw Ma Qian'an, who was a fresh man, leading a group of men in spring khaki clothes and carrying guns to the street to beat the gong.

"Today afternoon, bandits are going to come to the town to make trouble. Those who have the guts will follow Grandpa to kill the bandits. Those who don't have the guts to go home and hide."

With such a shout, commotion broke out in the street, such a thing as a commotion, would rather be believed or not, the common people hid back home one after another, and the bustling market suddenly became deserted.

The shopkeeper of a grocery store had a bitter face, bowed cautiously to Ma Qian'an, and said with a wry smile: "Master Ma, if you shout like that, our business will stop~"

"Still doing business?" Ma Qian'an opened his big hand and pushed the shopkeeper back to the grocery store, "Hurry up and fix the door panel, lest bandits break in."

The shopkeeper of the grocery store had no choice but to follow suit, and hurriedly asked the clerk to close the door.

At this time, a lot of rickshaws were pushed by the guys with fresh moves. Sandbags were piled on the scooters, and it was a roadblock to stop anywhere.If the bandits from Yuntai Mountain want to enter the town, the nearest intersection is Zhongshan East Street and Zhongshan West Street. This is also the place where Li Mohan and Ma Qian'an focused their defense.The other intersections into the town were all close to the railway station, where patrolmen and British soldiers from the Railway Supervision Bureau were stationed, and the bandits did not dare to pass through there in a pretentious manner.

When Mayor Liu heard that the bandits were coming, he didn't care whether they really came this time, so he quickly took people into the Supervision Bureau building. There were British soldiers standing guard there, so the bandits would not dare to mess around.

Just after lunch, I heard the sound of horseshoes coming from a distance, and I saw a long black line between the gray and white world, rushing towards the town like the waves of the sea.

Standing on a high place and using binoculars to spy on the enemy, Li Mohan could vaguely see the appearance of the bandits. Most of these bandits were riding horses, and a few of them were riding donkeys, mules and other miscellaneous animals.It seems that the bandits only require fast enough mobility, so there are not enough horses, so mules come to make up.

The closer the bandits' horse team got closer, the stronger the vibration felt on the ground under their feet, so that the tiles on the building closest to the street, whether it was the wind blowing or the vibration caused by the horseshoes trampling on the ground, started to vibrate. Slowly slide down.

At this time, Li Mohan felt personally why people often used terms like "overwhelming" and "thundering" to describe the shock of the cavalry charge.I haven't seen their appearance yet, but the unique sound of horseshoes when the cavalry charged on a large scale is enough to deter the enemy.

Among Li Mohan's subordinates, the veterans who followed from Xuzhou didn't care, they methodically checked the guns in their hands, and a few of them even secretly scratched the bullets of a few bullets on the stone.

The recruits were very nervous. Most of them felt dry in their throats and kept swallowing, but their hands were always trembling involuntarily, and the palms of the hands holding the guns were sweating unconsciously. .

Li Mohan is still wearing his iconic white suit, white leather shoes on his feet, and a red tie around his neck is very eye-catching.He took the gun from a recruit, unbolted it, glanced at it, and threw it back to the recruit.

"Yes, the gun was wiped clean."

"Thank you~ thank you~" the recruit stammered

"It's okay! Don't be afraid, the big guys have held the guns for me!" Li Mohan straightened the collar of the recruit, "Take them as targets on the shooting range in a while."

"Yes." The recruit's chest rose and fell violently, and he even saluted Li Mohan.

"I'm afraid he's a ball. People are dead and birds are in the sky, and they can't die for thousands of years. It's just a group of people riding horses. Isn't our machine gun just for display?"

"That's it~ No matter how good your skills are, you can be knocked down with one shot." The veterans also encouraged the recruits one after another.

Here Li Mohan cheered up his subordinates, while in the bandit team in the distance, Ran Qingping also shouted at the top of his voice.

"Brothers all know that we posted a message to this town a few days ago, but the people in the town will not give money, and will not reply to the post, and they will ignore my words. If this spreads out, won't the brothers on the road be laughed at? Master Ran I have never been so angry since I debuted. Now the big guy just let go, rush in and chop off the whole **** of those grandchildren."

Ran Qingping's hard-core one-eyed dragon shouted in a sharp voice: "Brothers, follow the head of the big club and kill together!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Although the shouts of nearly [-] bandits were uneven, the volume was truly majestic.Immediately, a hundred or so bandits followed Cyclops and killed them.

"Huh?" Li Mohan frowned when he saw the scene of the bandits charging through the binoculars.

Originally, Li Mohan planned to wait until the bandits got close enough to show off the Maxim machine gun, but now looking at the bandits who are quite powerful, if they let them approach like this before fighting, it is estimated that most of the recruits on his side may He was so nervous and scared that he didn't know how to shoot. If it was too late to say anything, the Maxim machine gun might have to go into battle early.
