"Sir's quick-gun squad is really brave. "Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zilharang asked, standing behind Huang Taiji, "but Ben Belle wonders why Mr. Ben Belle didn't equip the Swift Gun Team with armor?" ”

"Back to Lord Baylor." Tao Min replied, "Since he is a fast gun team, his biggest characteristic is a fast character, and the requirements of the fast gun team are fast rate of fire, fast loading, and fast action." We don't need to engage the enemy in hand-to-hand combat, so we don't need armor. ”

"But sir." Hauge asked again, "The Ming army also has cavalry, and I heard that the cavalry of the Yulin army is also equipped with firearms and half-body armor. If our men don't have any precautions, can they deal with their cavalry? ”

"Lord Belle is worried again." Tao Min said with a smile, "The cavalry of the Yulin Army does have firearms, but the range of their cavalry firecrackers is not comparable to ours at all. As long as our firepower is intensive, we won't have to wait for their cavalry to rush over. ”

"Mr. Law." Huang Taiji said to Tao Min, "I hope Mr. will worry a lot about the matter of the fast gun team." ”

"The minions obey."

Tao Min and Tao Gong returned home, and a family member handed over a secret letter: "Master, it has just been delivered." ”

"Got it." Tao Min waved his hand and tore the letter open by the way.

"Brother, whose own? What letter? ”

Tao Min read the letter carefully, and suddenly asked, "Brother, how are Andreas and them now?" ”

"I'm still mining." Tao Gong replied, "Thanks to putting them far away, they didn't find Xu Lang last time. ”

Tao Min thought for a while: "How many prisoners of war of the Yulin Army do we have now, and what rank are they?" How many corpses were collected last time? ”

"Our two companies were basically captured, nearly 200 people; Andreas: There are more than 20 of them, a total of more than 200s. One of the captains is Andreas. There are 3 lieutenants, and the rest are more than 10 ensigns and sergeants. As for the corpses, you told me to keep them all, about 1,300 or so, but they were all rotten, and only the bones remained. Tao Gong replied and asked, "Brother, why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”

Tao Min raised the secret letter in his hand: "This is Xie Tian sent from Macau, he heard a news, Yulin Bay is now doing arms business with the Portuguese, and the transaction amount is quite a lot." ”

"Yulin Bay is in the arms business with the Portuguese?" Tao Gong was a little surprised, "Then don't they want to make a windfall?" ”

"Huh." Tao Min smiled, "I'm afraid they won't be able to make a fortune." ”

"Brother, what do you mean?" Tao Gong was a little confused by what his brother said.

"Brother, let's form a fast gun team to go to North Korea, and find someone to build a warship, all of which require silver, but I'm afraid the Great Khan won't be able to get so much silver."

Tao Gong somewhat understood what his brother meant: "Brother, do you want to exchange these prisoners of war and Yulin Bay for silver?" ”

"Clever." Tao Min smiled, "I asked you to keep those corpses just to wait for this opportunity." ”

"But brother, can Yulinwan agree?" Tao Gong asked, "Andreas, we may exchange some silver, but can Yulinwan want those dead people's bones?" ”

"They definitely want to." Tao Min counted with his fingers, "Andreas 100,000 taels, a lieutenant 30,000 taels, a second lieutenant and sergeant major 10,000 taels, a soldier 500 taels, a pair of bones 100 taels, this time at least 500,000 taels." ”

"Brother." Tao Gong's mouth opened the boss, "Does Yulin Bay have so much money now?" They are also expanding their army now, and I am afraid that they will not be able to take it out at once. ”

"If you can't get any money, you can exchange it for things." Tao Min replied, "We are short of food and iron now, so let Yulinwan convert these things into silver." ”

"And." Tao Min asked again, "Those prisoners of war have been with us for almost a year, have you found the person I asked you to find?" ”

"Only 2 were found." Tao Gong knew what Tao Min was asking, "One is from Annam, the other is from the West, and the Ming Dynasty people didn't have it." ”

"Heh, they're really patriotic." Tao Min laughed, "2 is enough, you hurry up and train, and when these prisoners of war are put back, they will be handed over to Yulin Bay together." But remember, this matter can only be known to you, and you must not leak the news. ”

"Don't worry, brother, I know this."

"But, brother." Tao Gong asked another question, "These prisoners of war have been mining with us for almost a year, if we put them back, will they bring our situation back as well?" ”

"This won't." Tao Min smiled, "I've been wary of this problem for a long time, they will never know about our coal and iron production." ”

"That's good, I'm worried about not having any more problems."

"Brother, you're like this." Tao Min directly arranged, "I'll write a letter, and you will immediately arrange for someone to send it to Jiang Beiming in Beijing, and let's wait for the cashier." ”

In the camp of the officer training corps in Beijing City, Han Wantao has returned to Beijing, and is relaying the resolution of the crossing conference with Jiang Beiming and others.

"Report."

"Come in."

A sergeant pushed the door and walked in: "Report to the chief, someone has sent a letter, naming and handing it over to Chief Jiang." ”

"In my hands?" Jiang Beiming took the letter and asked, "Where is the person who sent the letter?" ”

"He was in the barracks, and he was in a hurry to leave, but he was held back by us."

"Hold him first, and we'll talk about it later." Jiang Beiming opened the letter as he spoke.

"Beiming, whose letter?" Han Wantao asked, "Why is it so mysterious?" ”

Jiang Beiming opened the letter and read it for a while, his face was a little heavy: "The letter written by Tao Min." ”

"Tao Min wrote to us?" Zhang Hai seemed a little unconvinced, "What can he do when he writes a letter?" ”

"You all see." Jiang Beiming handed the letter to Han Wantao, and then explained, "It seems that the economy on the Manchu side is not very good, Tao Min is short of silver, and he wants to exchange the remains of the Yulin Army prisoners of war and martyrs in Operation Goryeo for silver with us." ”

"He can really think of it." Zhang Hai shouted, "How much silver does he want to exchange?" ”

"500,000 taels." Han Wantao briefly read the letter and replied, "There are a total of 206 people, including Andreas, and 1,328 remains of martyrs, and Tao Min wants us 500,000 taels." ”

"He's crazy." Zhang Hai scolded, "What a lion, he thinks our Yulin Bay is printing money." ”

Han Wantao ignored Zhang Hai's shouting, turned his head to Jiang Beiming and asked, "Beiming, what do you think?" ”

"500,000. And it can be used to top the account with food and supplies. Jiang Beiming thought for a while, "It seems that Xu Lang's analysis is good, Tao Min must have asked for so much money to prepare for going to North Korea or Japan." ”

"We all know that." Han Wantao asked again, "Then shall we give it or not?" ”

Jiang Beiming looked up at the two people in the room: "The possibility of not giving it is relatively small, we should give it." ”

"That's 500,000." Zhang Hai said, "There are only three of us in Beijing, and this matter must be reported back to Yulin Bay, and two committees or a general meeting will be used to make a decision." ”

"Returning to Yulin Bay is for sure." Jiang Beiming said, "But even if the committee makes a decision, the final result still has to be given." Andreas: They are our weakness, and Tao Min is very accurate. When we attacked Shengjing last time, we didn't find them after looking for a long time, Tao Min actually kept the remains of our martyrs, he probably thought of this day a long time ago. ”

"Don't we have their prisoners of war on our hands?" Zhang Hai suddenly remembered Tuktan, "Isn't it okay to exchange Tuktan for Andreas?" ”

"Zhang Hai, never give up any brother is the belief of our Yulin Army. Not only can we not give up Andreas, but also those martyrs who sacrificed, but we must also let their souls return to their hometowns. Han Wantao shook his head when he said this, "But on the Manchu side, they shouldn't want those prisoners of war." ”

"Let's not talk about this yet." Jiang Beiming waved his hand and shouted, "Someone." ”

"Here." The sergeant pushed the door open again.

"You bring the messenger here, we have something to ask." Jiang Beiming commanded.

"Yes, sir." The sergeant turned and went out.

A man from the Ming Dynasty who described obscenity was brought into the house and stood aside tremblingly.

Jiang Beiming looked up and down: "What is your name, where is the person, who called you to send this letter?" ”

"General, General." The Ming Dynasty man fell to his knees all of a sudden, "The little one doesn't know anything." Someone gave the small one 2 taels of silver and asked the little one to hand over the letter to a person named Jiang Beiming. Other than that, the little one really doesn't know anything. ”

"Get up and speak." Han Wantao snorted, "What does the person who asked you send the letter look like, where is the accent, how old is he, how did he find you?" ”

"Back to the general." The Ming Dynasty people got up from the ground, "the little one doesn't know him, he looks about 30 years old, Beijing accent, and there is nothing special about his appearance." The little one is a good gambler, and he lost all the money in the casino today, so he gave the little one 2 taels of silver and asked the little one to send this letter. ”

"You don't have to be nervous." Jiang Beiming put on a smiling face, reached out and took out 5 taels of silver from his clothes, "We also want to thank you for sending us this letter." If you see someone who asked you to send a letter again, you can tell us right away, and we will have a reward. ”

"Thank you, General, thank you, General." The people of the Ming Dynasty took the silver and walked out of the house with a smile.

Jiang Beiming looked at the back of this Ming Dynasty man and ordered: "Zhang Hai, find someone to stare at him, and then let Ge Tao check him to see if what he said is the truth." ”

"Understood." Zhang Hai got up and went out.

Zhang Hai had just gone out when the sergeant just now pushed the door in again: "Report to the chief, someone has sent another letter." ”

"Someone else delivering a letter?" Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao both glanced at each other, is today International Communication Day?

"Got it." Jiang Beiming took the letter and asked, "Who sent the letter this time?" ”

"I didn't find anyone who delivered the letter this time." The sergeant replied, "Someone deliberately left this letter around our sentry, and by the time the sentry found it, no one could find it." ”

"Okay, you can go out first." Jiang Beiming opened the letter and muttered to himself, "Who could this be?" ”

Jiang Beiming had just taken out the letter when a coin fell out of the envelope and rolled to Han Wantao's feet.

Han Wantao bent down and picked up the coin: "One yuan coin? Why is the Second General Affairs Department so mysterious? ”

Jiang Beiming didn't answer Han Wantao's question, he finished reading the letter by himself, and said to himself: "What does this snake mean?" ”

"Snakes? What snake? Han Wantao was stimulated by Jiang Beiming's words, and reached out to take the letter from Jiang Beiming's hand.

"Right here." Jiang Beiming pointed to the lower left corner of the letter, "I didn't make a payment, I drew a snake, which looked like a cobra." ”

"Huh." Han Wantao pointed at the snake and smiled, "Cobra, you are finally no longer dormant." ”

"Wan Tao, what do you mean? What is not dormant. Jiang Beiming didn't know about Ji Tonghai.

"Beiming, let me explain it to you." Han Wantao pulled Jiang Beiming to sit down, "During the Goryeo operation, before I went to North Korea, Zhang Guodong and Wang Hua told me about this alone, and now only the three of us know about the existence of the cobra. ”

After listening to Han Wantao's story, Jiang Beiming smiled unconsciously: "This is really a dormant cobra, but the hibernation time is a bit long, it seems that spring is coming." ”
