Chapter 129: Hand in Hand (Fourth Change: Asking for a Monthly Pass)
What Shi Tinglan sent was a pair of binoculars, judging from the style, this is a very well-made military telescope, and even magnification adjustment can be made, not to mention that although the decoration of this telescope is a little simple, it has a strong European aristocratic flavor.
I don't know how such binoculars fell into Shi Tinglan's hands, but her brother is the Wing King Shi Dakai, and such a pair of military binoculars is nothing to the high-ranking and powerful Shi Dakai.
Liu Chang liked this pair of military binoculars for the first time, he couldn't put it down, he only had a monocular given to him by Xu Fengfei, which was completely incomparable with such binoculars.
Liu Chang took the telescope and tried it, it was indeed a boutique of telescope craftsmanship in this era, with a wide field of vision and reasonable magnification, which was most suitable for watching the jade people take a bath, and he decided to accept Shi Tinglan's silver bullet offensive: "Eldest sister, thank you Sister Tinglan for me." ”
On the battlefield, such a telescope can better grasp the fighter plane for a lot of time, which is not an excuse, but a fact that has been confirmed countless times.
Liu Chang even thought of a little, now there are only a handful of telescopes in the entire Hong Army, and even he himself only had one monocular before, not to mention the battalion and company-level officers below, and several artillery companies add up to only one monocular.
So he decided to buy a batch of binoculars for his company-level officers, and Rusya didn't happen to be in Panshi Village, so he entrusted this matter to her, and it seemed that he had to prepare to purchase a batch of pocket watches.
Therefore, he smiled at Zhou Xiuying, and handed over the monocular he was carrying casually: "Company Commander Zhou, this telescope is for you!" ”
Zhou Xiuying was slightly angry, but she took Liu Chang's monocular with a horse chopping knife: "Thank you for the inspection reward!" ”
But her eyes were still fixed on Shi Tinglan. even brought a little bit of emotion that made Liu Chang's heart cold. Over there, Liu Chang had already hung the telescope around his neck.
Today, thanks to the gifts given by the three ladies, Liu Chang now has eight large pocket watches in his pocket, two Colt revolvers pinned to the white armed belt around his waist, and this binocular, which can be said to be completely new.
Over there, Shi Tinglan said something in Guangxi dialect again, so Yang Changmei lowered her head, but said to Liu Chang: "Brother Chang, can we talk about it in private!" ”
Zhou Xiuying was the first to object: "Check." Your safety is related to thousands of brothers in the rainbow army! ”
"That week, the company commander retreated a little farther, and I will say a few words to Brother Chang!"
Liu Chang nodded, and patted the revolver pinned to his waist, indicating that he also had the ability to defend himself, but although Zhou Xiuying retreated to the door, he was holding the horse with both hands, ready to kill at any time.
"Say it!" Liu Chang sat down: "My good eldest sister! ”
There was some ridicule in his words, but Yang Changmei said angrily: "If you are in Tianjing, you will die!" Don't say you're a checkpoint, even the prime minister is going to be cut down by my brother! ”
"East King Nine Thousand Years Old?"
In the system of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Hong Xiuquan is long live, Yang Xiuqing is second only to Hong Xiuquan, higher than other kings, known as nine thousand years old. And Yang Changmei also deliberately pretended to be vicious: "Fortunately, this is Wenzhou, that's right, Dongwang is my own brother, he loves my sister the most, I begged a lot to get him to agree to me to come to Wenzhou." You have sinned against me, and you are dead. ”
Liu Chang immediately sensed the meaning of Yang Changmei's words: "Why do you want to come to Wenzhou?" ”
"Alive, want to live!" Yang Changmei sighed faintly: "I just want my brother and me to live." ”
Shi Tinglan next to him interjected: "Our daughter's family is this troubled wanderer, I just want to live more meaningfully." ”
Liu Chang had already understood five or six points, with the monstrous power of Yang Xiuqing, the current king of the East, it was like sitting in a crater. Just over a year later, the Tianjing Incident broke out, and although these two girls were very young, they made the right choice.
"Alright! You stay in our rock village for a while, come and go freely, it doesn't matter what nonsense you want to say! ”
At this time, what can Yang Changmei and Shi Tinglan change when they expose that Liu Chang is not the first thirty-six checkpoints of the Heavenly Kingdom Palace? The Hongjun is an army founded by Liu Chang, and these two women can't make any waves at all.
It is precisely with such a psychological advantage that Liu Chang decided to leave these two girls as pawns for future use, not to mention that these are still two beautiful and smart daughters.
"Good!" Yang Changmei smiled sweetly: "We know what to say and what not to say, but this time the inspection point is preparing to go north to Taizhou?" ”
"Originally, I could enter Taizhou Mansion tomorrow, but I rushed back with a little accident!" Liu Chang also told Yang Changmei and Shi Tinglan the truth: "It may take a few days." ”
"Then let's go to Taizhou together!" Yang Changmei said: "Since you have Company Commander Zhou in your army, there is no problem with me and Tinglan." ”
Liu Changgang wanted to refuse, but Yang Changmei had already said: "Sister Tinglan and I both joined the Taiping Army in the camp of the Jintian regiment, the battle to welcome the Lord, the two into Bauhinia, the Yong'an breakthrough, the battle of Guilin, and the siege of Changsha ......"
She has listed many classic battles in the history of the Heavenly War: "We have all participated in it ourselves, and even went into battle with rattan cards to kill the enemy, if we go to the battlefield, we should be able to help you with something." ”
She obviously said to Liu Chang: "Okay, then you can come along, but your guards can only stay in Panshi Village!" ”
There are more than a dozen guards, which is obviously much more threatening than these two girls, as soon as Liu Chang thought of this, a woman outside the West Flower Hall shouted: "Where are you checking?" Where are your checkpoints? How can you get fat because two women break their promises! ”
It was Ye Niangzi who came, she rushed into the West Flower Hall in a rage, and directly questioned Liu Chang: "Liu Checkpoint, didn't the two of us say that we would start it today?" Why did your team withdraw before Yueqing County, in this way, wouldn't it be extremely dangerous for my family to attack Yuhuan Island alone, how could you miss a big deal for two women! ”
She pointed the finger at Yang Changmei and Shi Tinglan. Obviously, there is already some rumor out there. Liu Chang also defended himself: "Someone sold me a few barrels of black powder for artillery today, which is the black powder that Westerners specially use on artillery, I don't know if Ye Niangzi is interested?" ”
Ye Niangzi is menacing, but as soon as Liu Chang said this, she already understood: "Okay, since the inspection point must send me a few buckets, Ye Yudie, I am not welcome, I guess I will have to wait for a few days?" ”
Now this batch of new equipment is not small. However, the overall adjustment is not large, and it is estimated that the Minnie rifle can be digested within the dragon gun battalion, but auxiliary units such as the Forward Company and the Anhai Company, each company can have a platoon replaced with a flintlock gun, which can be regarded as a shotgun change.
Liu Chang thought about it for a while, and finally said: "Seven days, give me seven days to sharpen the knife and cut firewood!" ”
"Good!" Ye Niangzi asked: "In addition to this batch of black medicine for cannons, did you get any other good things?" Where did this revolver come from? ”
Her eyes were sharp, and at a glance she could see the revolver pinned to Liu Chang's waist. And the flintlock pistol that he carried with him can be said to be the product of two generations: "This is Colt's revolver, right?" I've wanted to get a pair. ”
She fell in love with Liu Chang's waist pinned a pair, but she deliberately wanted to get a pair back from Liu Chang, and kept praising it: "This gun is absolutely good, but it's a pity that my boss won't buy me a pair." And this telescope is not bad either! And there are no extra Colt revolvers? ”
It seems that I have not had any luck, and March 21 is just an ordinary day.
Liu Chang, who had taken three beauty gifts in a row, finally met Ye Niangzi, who not only did not give gifts, but also wanted to take a pair of revolvers from him: "Ye Niangzi, if Demons comes over next time, I will ask him to bring you a pair of revolvers." ”
"That's fine!" Ye Niangzi saw that she couldn't take advantage of Liu Chang's side, so she had other ideas: "These two are Yang Wangmei and Shi Wangmei, right?" This is a character like Princess Gulun, Liu Jian said that you have to serve the marquis! ”
She said goodbye in the same hurry as she came: "Seven days." After saying that after seven days, the two of us will go hand in hand by land and water, don't lose your words at the inspection! ”
Liu Chang smiled, but pulled out a pair of revolvers and inserted them back in, before he said to Yang Changmei and Shi Tinglan: "If you can make a contribution to this battle of Taizhou, I will not only return your guards." I will also arrange a platoon of pro-soldiers for you. ”
He turned around and shouted at Zhou Xiuying again: "Xiuying, help me invite Mr. Yu!" ”
"Which Mr. Yu? It's Yu Village, right? ”
Zhou Xiuying rushed away with a horse chopping knife, and after a while, Yu Cun had already rushed over, and he asked with great hope: "Check, but you have agreed with the two national sects to lead the army south?" ”
Liu Chang shook his head: "We are still ready to go north, without us in the north, how can Qu Dashuai rest assured that he will go south, but although I can't go south, I am also willing to help." ”
"I recently got a batch of foreign guns, a total of one hundred and twenty guns, although our army is also in urgent need of these foreign guns when it enters Taizhou in the north, but I am willing to give half of them to Qu Shuai and Brother Zhao, but the price of buying these foreign guns is quite high......"
"No problem, no problem!" Although please don't move Liu Chang to the south, but it is also an unexpected joy to be able to get a batch of foreign guns from Liu Chang, and now the foreign gun team that Qu Zhenhan has worked so hard to put together is only in his early seventies, and he can get sixty strokes at one time, which is definitely a great achievement: "No matter how high the price is, it is a hundred silver yuan and one stroke!" ”
It's just that he thought about it carefully: "Besides, the price can't be low, Liu Gongrui bought three batches of foreign guns, all of which are seventy silver yuan, if we are lower than this price, Liu Goutou's face is definitely not good-looking, if we can, we will calculate it according to seventy silver yuan!" ”
Liu Chang got three hundred flintlock pistols in one go, and sixty shots came out to support the Red Turban Army going south, which was very sparing, but he didn't want to make money, but Yu Cun said this, Liu Chang was embarrassed to release the water: "That's good, it will be settled according to seventy silver yuan per stroke." ”
He thought about it for a while and decided to give Yu Cun a rebate of ten silver yuan for each foreign gun.
