Chapter 122: Prancing Horse Whip

The endless wilderness, the eagle flies and the grass grows, and the green grassland seems to border the blue sky, giving people a feeling of vastness and unrestrainedness. www.biquge.info At this time, a group of cavalry marched leisurely and unhurriedly on the grassland, and the grass covered the horse's legs, as if in the rippling sea of grass. In the face of such a sweet delicacy, the horse stopped from time to time to eat, and in the face of the whip wielded by his master, he had to desperately eat even if it hurt.

All wore veils, and swarms of mosquitoes roamed around. "Big brother, you said that the mosquitoes here are evil, and they really live up to their reputation." Ge Yunfei waved his hand to drive away the mosquitoes that fell on the cotton yarn. "There are a lot of mosquitoes here, but I have learned that I have suffered from the bandits here. The reason why there are many mosquitoes here is that there are too many puddles, and at night they are even crows and crows, and even the war horses can't stand it if there is no mosquito coil. ”

Ge Yunfei said that Zhang Zuolin was sitting on the golden mountain and didn't know it, his heart was swaying, he couldn't bear the itching in his heart, and proposed to go to that treasure land to see, Ge Yunfei was enthusiastic but naturally couldn't refuse, and it just so happened that he also wanted to go to the north for a tour. This is the advantage of serving as an overseer, there is no official business, and there is no need to guard the shop, and there is a lot of time to do his own thing, and the same is true for Zhang Zuolin. This trip was escorted by his guards, about 150 guards, 200 horses, and the extra horses mainly carried mosquito nets and daily necessities.

The convoy set out from Mukden and arrived at Songyuan two days later before continuing north into the steppe. The grasslands in September have a unique charm, after the spring is nurtured and ready to bloom, the summer is moist and thriving, and the autumn is the harvest season. There are white sheep on the grassland, unrestrained Mongolian herdsmen waving their horsewhips and singing loudly, and the beautiful and unique grassland melody vibrates in the air. A variety of grassland animals frequently appear to show off their happy home.

A small river appeared in front of it, and the clear water was bubbling and flowing. The horses were probably thirsty and struggled to run towards the river. Seeing this scene, Zhang Zuolin ordered to rest. The soldiers of the Guards dismounted after receiving the order. Ge Yunfei's two guards led the horses towards the river. While the horses drank, everyone sat down and rested. "Brother Ge, I'll check on the map, the place you said is very close to the railway line, and 15 kilometers on both sides of the railway line is the Lao Maozi control area, I'm worried that Lao Maozi is looking for trouble."

"Big brother don't have to worry, Japan and Russia were defeated in a big fight and were forced to cede the South Manchurian Railway and other interests, and the Russians are most worried about the expansion of the Japanese now. With the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the founding of the Republic of China, China swept away the decadent atmosphere of the past, and the Russians were also afraid of it. In addition, the situation in Russia is chaotic, the regime is unstable, and it is too busy to take care of itself. There is no need to worry about the Russians looking for trouble these days. Actually, I'm worried about the Japanese, who are the formidable opponents. "Brother Ge is thinking too much, little Japan is just a temporary success, and it can't become a climate."

Seeing Zhang Zuolin's indifferent appearance, Ge Yunfei guessed that there are two kinds of people in China nowadays, one is afraid of the Japanese, thinking that the military strength and national strength between China and Japan are far apart, and it is better not to provoke them. The second is that they don't care, these people think that little Japan is a small country after all, how can there be a snake swallowing an elephant in the world, and the Japanese will have to bow down sooner or later, and Zhang Zuolin probably belongs to this type of person. Ge Yunfei knew Zhang Zuolin's ambitions, and he wanted to use the Japanese to strengthen himself and claim hegemony in the Northeast in the future.

Don't look at Zhang Zuolin's quiet text on the surface, occasionally showing the grasshopper style, giving people a frank feeling. However, this person is good at scheming and has a clear understanding of the situation, so Ge Yunfei cannot say the wolf ambitions of the Japanese to his face, lest Zhang Zuolin think that he is suspected of provoking. "Big brother is reasonable, little Japan is just a fox and a fake tiger, and in the long run, they will weaken sooner or later." "Heroes see the same thing, sooner or later Japan will go back to the island."

"Report, there is a man and a rider on the west side, and he has appeared three times, and this kung fu has appeared again, as if he is following us." A subordinate interrupted their conversation.

Zhang Zuolin stood up and picked up the telescope to look at the west, and Ge Yunfei also stood up and raised the telescope. The distance to the west was about 3,000 meters, and sure enough, there was a rider standing on a high point looking this way. Ge Yunfei immediately judged that it might be the horse bandits' scouts, and Zhang Zuolin led his troops to suppress the bandits, although he eliminated several of the largest horse bandits, but the horse bandits did not strangle them cleanly. Soon, the rider in the distance disappeared, Zhang Zuolin put down the binoculars and said: "It's the Mongolian bandit's detective horse, immediately send a search team to the west to search!" ”

The subordinates received the order and immediately led a dozen cavalry to the west. "Brother Ge doesn't need to panic, it's the wandering bandits who are eyeing us, and the number won't be too many. Don't worry, brother, I have experience in dealing with bandits. "Big brother, it's better to be cautious, not to be careless." Ge Yunfei secretly thought, if it weren't for his butterfly effect, Zhang Zuolin should not have appeared here, the Hulunbuir grassland was rampant, especially the Mongolian bandits, the three major bandits were strangled by Zhang Zuolin two shares, one of which was led by Tao Ke Taohu, and fled into Outer Mongolia.

This group of Mongolian bandits will not be willing to be lonely, robbery is their nature, but also the nature of survival, Outer Mongolia is sparsely populated and difficult to gain a foothold, it is normal for this group of Mongolian bandits to flow in again. Ge Yunfei's judgment was not wrong, but the Tao Ketao Hu gang entered this grassland, but they did not come to rob, but to cooperate with the prince of Mengdong to make independence. At present, the official army is suppressing the rebels of the Mongol prince Utai, and Tauktahu is ordered to enter this area to harass in order to alleviate the plight of the prince.

Zhang Zuolin and Ge Yunfei led their troops into the grassland, and they were targeted by the bandits. Although there were only more than 200 people in Taoketaohu, there were not many "prey" people, so the leader of the Mongolian bandits, Taoketaohu, decided to attack this official army that stepped into the grassland.

That night, Ge Yunfei deliberately put a sniper rifle and revolver next to his pillow in the tent to avoid being caught off guard by the bandits. Zhang Zuolin looked at it in his eyes and smiled: "Brother Ge, the bandits will not sneak attack at night, maybe we can meet them tomorrow morning, you can sleep with peace of mind tonight!" ”

"Big brother, I don't understand why the bandits didn't choose to attack at night?" "The bandits have suffered so much that they have caused cannibalism. In addition, the bandits have a tendon, pay attention to dignified fighting, and think that sneak attacks are shameful behaviors. "Interesting, it seems that fighting immediately has its peculiarities." "The bandits are good at kung fu right away, but my subordinates have been fighting immediately for a long time, and their fighting skills are not inferior to the bandits in the slightest. In addition, the weapons of the Mongolian bandits are not good, and my guards are equipped with long guns and short guns, which are more than enough to deal with the Mongolian bandits. ”

Ge Yunfei thinks that what Zhang Zuolin said makes sense, after all, he has a lot of experience. The night was uneventful, and the next morning after breakfast, the men and horses continued on their way. About half an hour later, two detectives arrived on Pegasus. "Dashuai, there is a bandit ahead, and there are about 200 people blocking the way. The bandits lined up and put on an offensive stance. Zhang Zuolin was not afraid to shout loudly: "Brothers, there is a group of bandits in front, this group of defeated generals actually openly provoked, damn that they are tired of being crooked, and immediately meet the enemy in a battle formation!" ”

Suddenly, the guards soldiers lined up in a line attack formation, with Zhang Zuolin and Ge Yunfei in the center. Zhang Zuolin saw Ge Yunfei pull out a sniper rifle from the saddle and said, "Brother Ge, there is no crosshair to shoot immediately, and you will stay behind after the Meng bandits fight for a while." Ge Yunfei smiled and didn't say anything. The horse team moved forward about 2 kilometers in battle formation, and the men and horses of the Mongolian bandits appeared head-on. The two sides set up at a distance of about 1,000 meters. Ge Yunfei raised the binoculars to check, and saw that the bandits were holding a saber majestic.

"Big brother, everyone has a rifle in Mongolia, this is not an ordinary Mongolian bandit." "Damn, I haven't seen you for a few years, this rabble of shotguns has changed! Brethren draw their swords and prepare to strike! Seeing that Zhang Zuolin was fearless, Ge Yunfei secretly admired. Zhang Zuolin can become a generation of heroes, and his ability to be both civil and military is by no means in vain, no wonder the Japanese want to get rid of him. Ge Yunfei tested the wind speed with his hand, quickly adjusted the ruler, and his eyes were on the scope to find the target, and soon his crosshair locked on a burly man in the middle of the bandits.

Ge Yunfei expected that this guy must be the leader of the bandits, and at this time, the bandits attacked, and Zhang Zuolin also gave a loud order to attack. As soon as the bandits' war horse got up, Ge Yunfei's gun rang out, and he saw the big man fall off his horse. Ge Yunfei's judgment was accurate, and the target he locked on was the Mongolian bandit leader Tao Ke Taohu, and the bandit leader was hit at an ultra-long distance, and the bandits were in chaos, some continued to attack, and some strangled the war horse to rescue. Ge Yunfei pulled the bolt of the gun and fired continuously, and the four Mongolian bandits who rushed in front fell off their horses. The bandits shouted loudly and suddenly turned to the west to flee.

The guards followed the pursuit, and the battle ended before the battle had even begun. Escaping is the bandits' forte, and they disappear after a while. "Haha! Sharpshooter, I didn't expect my brother to have such a skill! "Zhang Zuolin, Pegasus, come over and praise it." Big brother, it's all up to this treasure, if you don't have it, you can't do it at all," Ge Yunfei patted the scope and said. "I didn't expect this thing to be installed on the gun, it can hit at such a long distance and there is no missing bullet, it is simply an artifact." "Big brother, since you like it, I'll give you this gun when I go back!"

"Haha! My old Zhang will also be a sharpshooter in the future! Seeing Zhang Zuolin's elated appearance, Ge Yunfei didn't want to spoil him. According to the commander, General Ge killed 5 Mongolian bandits, and the rest ran away. There was a Mongolian bandit who looked like Tauk Tauhu, but it was hard to be sure. "Let's go over and have a look!" After a while, everyone came to a war horse, and saw the dead lying on the side of the war horse, one foot still dragging on the stirrup. "Damn, it's Tauk Taohu, I can recognize him when he burns to ashes, but he's a little fat."

"Pack this guy on a horse and let him go back to report the funeral!" "Report to the commander, 4 rifles have been captured, they are Japanese-made rifles!" Zhang Zuolin took a rifle and looked at it: "It's all new guns, damn the bandits actually hooked up with the Japanese!" At present, the official army is suppressing the rebellion of the Mongol prince, and Ge Yunfei judged that this group of Mongolian bandits must have something to do with the Mongol rebellion.
