Chapter 72 Before the Great War Begins

After all, this world is a movie world, which is similar to real history, but not exactly the same. For example, at this time in history, Huang Feihong himself was already over 50 years old, but now Huang Shaohong's soul wearing this body is not even 30 years old. Not married.

In addition, according to the real history, at this time, the Qing court should have the upper hand in the court with the xenophobic forces headed by Duanjun Wang Zaiyi, and the situation with foreigners is the same.

But Huang Shaohong knew that in this film world, this was not the case.

In addition to the troubles between Boxer Boxing and foreigners, the relationship between the Qing court and foreigners was relatively harmonious on the surface, and even the "Lion Conference" initiated by Li Hongzhang specially invited ministers from various countries to watch the ceremony.

But even if there is a slight deviation, the main trend of history will not change, and the invasion of the capital by the Eight-Power Allied Forces cannot be avoided after all.

So Huang Shaohong simply kept Li Cunyi, and confessed to the other party, saying that it is impossible for foreigners to cause trouble in Tianjin. Judging from the current situation, the foreign devils will definitely attack the capital, and he intends to fight the foreigners in the capital.

Hearing Huang Shaohong's thoughts, the eyes of Li Cunyi and Wang Wu were blazing. The two of them hated foreign devils deeply, so they naturally expressed their willingness to obey the president's orders.

Huang Shaohong calculated the date and couldn't help but frown. According to the plot of the movie, the Lion King Conference will be one month later, and one month after the Lion King Conference, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces will send the Eight-Nation Lion Team to challenge the Chinese Lion King in order to paralyze the Qing government. It was when foreigners invaded the capital.

There are still two months to go, and I haven't started much training here. If I have no preparations at all, I can't let the single-handed Li Cunyi and the big-handed Wang Wu take steel swords and fight foreigners with muskets.

He simply revealed part of the fact that he had purchased firearms from the British, and discussed military training with the two masters.

Li Cunyi originally looked down on Western firearms, but in the battle of Lao Longtou, he saw countless boxers fall beside him. Among them, there are not many people who are proficient in martial arts, but under the enemy's firearms, they can't stop them. It's a small projectile, so I changed my inherent view, thinking that things made by foreigners also have merits.

As early as when the Great Swordsman Wang Wu met Tan Sitong, his vision had improved a lot, and he had also seen the power of Western firearms.

The three hit it off immediately, and finally decided to add a "firearms class" to the daily teaching of the "Jingwu Athletic Association"!
The firearms purchased by Huang Shaohong must not be seen before taking action, otherwise it will definitely cause trouble.

Moreover, the content of the "firearms class" is of course impossible to shoot with live ammunition. If the sound of firearms is heard in an important place in the capital, it is tantamount to courting death.

So I can only find a carpenter to make the parts of the breech gun with wood in a one-to-one ratio, and then assemble them together for the students to use in daily training. Sure, training with a wooden gun can't cause much trouble.

Huang Shaohong brought the militia brothers to teach the students some theoretical things, such as reloading, aiming, and firing. These basic things must be mastered, so as to save them from fighting when the time comes, it will be troublesome for these students to use muskets as fire sticks up.

As for the training of the head, Li Cunyi suggested that darts should be practiced mainly, and Wang Zhengyi also agreed, just like what they said, one reason is clear and one reason is clear, concealed weapons and firearms all depend on hand-eye coordination, so naturally there are similarities.

Although Huang Shaohong felt that it was a bit nonsense, he had no other way to do it, so he could only agree to it. At that time, he would make more darts and firearms from his old friend for these students to use.

Ever since, after this, the "Jingwu Athletic Club" added a "firearms class".

Speaking of this, I have to explain that because the "Jingwu Athletic Club" is a free class, there are a lot of people who come to learn martial arts, and there are only thousands of people who are registered.

Of course, due to the limitation of the venue, it is impossible for Jingwu Association to accommodate so many people to learn martial arts at the same time.

Fortunately, many of these people have jobs. According to the experience of later generations of cram schools, Huang Shaohong divided the teaching into three time periods: morning class, afternoon class, and evening class, so as to cope with so many students who signed up to learn martial arts.

What Huang Shaohong meant was that soldiers are more expensive than elite soldiers. In addition to the disciples who originally belonged to the martial arts circle in the capital, he selected a thousand reliable students to focus on training. However, he didn't bother to take care of these things, and left them all to experienced apprentices. Li Cunyi and Wang Wu to do it.

Zhao Tianba agreed to Huang Shaohong's request without even thinking about it, honestly took out [-] silver dollars, and asked the "Jingwu Sports Association" to help him win the gold medal of the Lion King.

Huang Shaohong handed over this matter to Yan Zhendong. Lao Yan always wanted to be famous, and now he was very proud of being the vice president. Hearing that he had another chance to be in the limelight, he naturally agreed.

During the preparation for the Lion King Conference, there were two small episodes. One was that Aunt Thirteen met a classmate who was studying in the UK, Russian Du Wenqi, who is now the Russian envoy to China.

Du Wenqi was somewhat interested in Thirteenth Aunt, but because Huang Shaohong was a soul wearer, he had no idea about Thirteenth Aunt, and didn't regard this person as a threat at all.

However, he remembered that Du Wenqi wanted to assassinate Li Hongzhang. He couldn't ignore this matter. Before the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded the capital, he absolutely couldn't let the matter develop out of his control.

Another thing is that when Guijiaoqi was in the Guangdong Guild Hall, he was kicked by Huang Shaohong Foshan Wuying and broke seven or eight ribs, and was thrown directly on the street by Zhao Tianba, leaving him to fend for himself.

Later, Huang Qiying heard about this and couldn't stand it anymore, so Zhurou Rong took Guijiaoqi to the Jingwu Association to help him heal his injuries, and he took the "Babao Duoming Decoction" to save his life.

Ghost Foot Seven was grateful for Huang Qiying's life-saving grace, so he simply stayed in the "Jing Wu Club" to help out, never complaining about any hard work.

Seeing what he did, Huang Shaohong knew that Guijiaoqi's temperament had changed because he was injured this time, and he had tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Closed door disciple, he doesn't think there are too many such masters now.

A month passed in a blink of an eye, and the Lion King Conference was held. Yan Zhendong led a group of disciples, under the banner of Daping, and easily grabbed the Lion King gold medal.

At the end of the Lion Conference, the Russian spy Du Wenqi, a classmate of Aunt Thirteen, wanted to assassinate Li Hongzhang with a musket in the dark, but before he could shoot, the Lion King Xiuma sent by Huang Shaohong took him away.

At that time, many people saw this incident, but in the end there was no trace, and this incident could only be let go.

After the Lion King Contest, Zhao Tian was so happy that he won the Lion King Gold Medal with only money, and gave his "Daping Oil Factory" a name. The commission of [-] silver dollars made him feel a little heartbroken, but it was nothing compared to the benefits it brought.

According to him, on the second day after winning the gold medal, the oil from the Daping was selected by the Empress Dowager Cixi as the designated oil for the royal meal. She eats the same oil as the queen mother today, so it's not a shame to say it.

So Zhao Tianba was very grateful to Huang Shaohong. He knew that without the other party's nod, the Jingwu Association would have won the Lion King by itself. How could it be his turn?

After the Lion King Conference was over, Huang Shaohong knew that the time was imminent, so he asked Wang Wu and Li Cunyi to hurry up and train the trainees and select manpower.

At this time, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces really formed the Eight-Nation Lions to challenge the Qing court. In order to maintain the national system, the Qing court sent the "General of the Eight Banners" A Lancheng to take charge of this matter.

A Lancheng found the "Jing Wu Club" and wanted to invite Yan Zhendong, who won the gold medal of the Lion King, to come out again to fight against the Lions of the Eight Nations.

As the president of the "Jingwu Athletic Association", Huang Shaohong flatly refused. Just kidding, it's none of my business whether the Qing court loses face or not. That night is the time when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded the capital. We don't have enough manpower. How can we let Lao Yan Go work for your Qing court.
