Chapter 6*46 Befriending the Captain of the Horse
Chapter 6*46 befriended the head of the horse
Leveling the guards, Hu Daniu and Jin Laosan went directly into the mining area in a rubber carriage.
"Shopkeeper Hu, do you think this is good, let my little guy take the two of them to the mountain to deliver food, and you accompany me to see Captain Ma." As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jin Laosan said.
"Okay, just listen to Brother Kim. Do you two follow the boys and run a little more, do you hear? Hu Daniu said to the two subordinates.
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, the two of us are diligent in our legs and feet, I discussed with the young man just now, the three of us have a mountain for each person, so that the delivery is fast, and it will not delay the shopkeeper's big event." One of his subordinates said with a smile.
"That's right, usually this little brother doesn't take care of the two of you, and it's right to do something." Hu Daniu said approvingly.
As soon as you enter through the gate, you will find a very large courtyard, and around the courtyard are houses made of wood.
"The house in front of me is where the Imperial Association Army lives, and Regiment Commander Ma usually works here." Jin Laosan said as he walked, pointing to a trip to the house on the front and back.
"There are so many houses, do the miners live here?" Hu Daniu asked in surprise.
"The miners don't have the right to live here, they all live in the back of the yard. The innermost one was for the imperial army, and the rest was for stuffing. ”
"Hehe, it's the first time I've seen such a big yard." Hu Daniu said with an embarrassed smile.
"The mining area, there is a place, you haven't been to the back, the territory behind it is ten times bigger than here. Any idea how many miners are in the back? As soon as he heard Hu Daniu say this, Jin Laosan knew that he must have never seen iron ore, so he said interestingly.
"With such a big land, why do you have to have three or five thousand, right?" Hu Daniu thought for a while and said.
"Three, five thousand? I'll tell you, at the back of the yard, there are 20,000 miners. Jin Laosan said mysteriously.
"Twenty thousand? My God, so much? ”
"Be quiet, you just know, don't say it." Jin Laosan hurriedly commanded in a low voice.
The two of them were talking, and before they knew it, they came to the headquarters of Commander Ma.
It is said that it is the headquarters, but in fact, it is the place where he usually sleeps, eats and works, and the room is quite large, enough to have four or five rooms, and it is also divided into inside and outside rooms with large wood.
In the middle of the outer room, there was a big sand table, which made Hu Daniu feel excited. But he didn't keep his eyes on the sand table, because as soon as the two of them came in, Captain Ma's eyes were staring at him without blinking.
The head of the horse regiment is similar in age to Jin Laosan, but his appearance is much rougher than Jin Laosan, and he is not a kind person at first glance, and he is born in martial arts.
"Captain Ma, this is the shopkeeper of Hu, who specially came to our temple to collect some mountain goods, my friend. Hu shopkeeper, this is the head of the horse. As soon as he saw Captain Ma, Jin Laosan hurriedly stepped forward and introduced.
"I have been looking up to the name of the horse group for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was really heroic. Hu was very impressed. came in a hurry, there was no preparation, and this little thing was still expected to be accepted by the head of the horse. After Jin Laosanyi finished introducing him, Hu Daniu hurriedly lowered his waist and handed over the things he was carrying.
Commander Ma remained silent until an adjutant behind him reached out and took the thing. After the adjutant took the thing, he just swept it out of the corner of his eye, and when he saw that there were two Japanese-made old knife version cigarettes in this package, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then looked up at Captain Ma.
What kind of person is Regiment Commander Ma, he is definitely a human spirit, and this small movement of the adjutant did not miss his eyes.
Captain Ma rolled his eyes and glanced at the package in the adjutant's hand. The adjutant was very cooperative, and pulled the package out, revealing two cigarettes at once. As soon as he saw these two cigarettes, Captain Ma's originally cold face suddenly loosened, revealing a very surprised expression.
In fact, for the commander of the Imperial Association, there is no shortage of cigarettes, such a big town, tens of thousands of people, usually Nakamura Taijun does not ask about the things in the town at all, in the town, it can be said that this horse regiment commander is a one-handed cover of the sky, and it is needless to say that he slaps his beard and sends cigarettes and alcohol.
The reason why Captain Ma's expression reversed in an instant was really because he saw these two old knife cards.
Commander Ma understood better than anyone else that this kind of cigarette was not sold on the market at all, to be precise, what was not sold in those shops and warehouses where the Chinese stayed, and in the residential areas of the Japanese, it was not sold very much, because this kind of cigarette was considered a high-grade product even in Japan, although it was not a special supply for officers of the Kwantung Army, but the actual situation was that only high-ranking officers of the Kwantung Army could smoke this brand of cigarettes.
Every year during the New Year's holiday, Head Ma can get a few boxes of this cigarette from Nakamura.
When Captain Ma saw that there were two in the package, even if he was reserved, he couldn't help but be surprised: What is the origin of this guy? Does it have anything to do with the Japanese?
What kind of person is the adjutant, how can he mix with the regiment commander if he doesn't have the eyesight. Commander Ma's face was so relaxed, and the adjutant immediately stepped forward and let the two of them sit down.
"You're a mountain picker?" Head Ma turned his head to look at Hu Daniu and asked.
"Yes, Captain Ma, please take care of me." Hu Daniu replied with a smile on his face.
"Head Ma, the shopkeeper Hu is doing things for the Japanese, and he is acting as an agent." Jin Laosan on the side hurriedly added.
"Oh? Chargé d'affaires for the Japanese? Captain Ma raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yes, Captain Ma, I'm working for the Manchurian Railway." Hu Daniu said as he handed his small notebook to Captain Ma.
Manchurian Railway is not an ordinary Japanese company, and the military background is very strong, of course Commander Ma knows. So, it's not so surprising now.
"I'm sorry, I was a little disrespectful just now." With the rare enthusiasm of the head of the horse, he said with both hands in a fist.
It is not an easy task to be able to get into the position of the commander of the Imperial Association, not to mention that the head of Miaoergou is different from other places, he belongs to the kind of Tiangao Emperor Yuan, and the power is not comparable to other traitors.
Being the head of the regiment here, whether it is the Imperial Allied Army or the upper echelons of the Kwantung Army, it doesn't matter if it is impossible for him to take his turn. It's such an iron relationship, this kind of cigarette is not something you can smoke if you want to, this guy is good, as soon as he shoots two shots, Commander Ma knows, just by virtue of this ability, in the upper echelons of the Kwantung Army, this chargé d'affaires is definitely not under him.
In fact, Hu Daniu didn't expect that his two cigarettes would have such a big effect.
Getting these cigarettes can be said to be just an accident. The last time I was at the material transfer station of the little devil, I inadvertently harvested five boxes of cigarettes, and no one took it too seriously at that time. The people on the mountain are all old smokers, and they are not used to this kind of smoke, and one thing is that they don't dare to give it to the people below, because they are afraid of the horse's feet, so they just put it on the mountain. happened to go down the mountain this time, and Mengzi deliberately asked Hu Daniu to bring a few. I didn't expect it to be used.
I don't know if the two cigarettes worked, but Captain Ma made an exception to leave Jin Laosan and Hu Daniu for lunch.
"Shopkeeper Hu, I borrowed your light. I have been with Captain Ma for so many years, and I have never had such treatment. Seeing that Captain Ma was not paying attention, Jin Laosan looked at Hu Daniu flatteringly and said.
As soon as Jin Laosan said this, Hu Daniu's heart moved: It doesn't seem so simple for this head of Ma to leave him for lunch, is this guy trying to use himself to catch up with high-level Japanese figures?
"Boss Jin, don't say that, brother, but I can't afford it. If you can get to know Captain Ma, it's all up to you, big brother. No matter what happens in the future, I will never forget the love of my eldest brother, brother. Hu Daniu hurriedly handed over the words.
"Hehe, you brother, my third brother didn't make friends in vain. Do you know why Captain Ma left us? ”
"Here...... Brother, I really didn't think about it. I also hope that the eldest brother will give you some advice. Hu Daniu said in a low-key manner, and his attitude was very flattering.
"If my guess is correct, he wants to use your line to see if he can get to know the top of the Kwantung Army. Hehe, brother, this is a good opportunity, don't you want to gain a foothold in Miaoergou? Be sure to take advantage of it. Jin Laosan said very actively.
"Thank you, big brother......" When Hu Daniu said this, Captain Ma came over.
Lunch wasn't sumptuous, but the table was full of good things, just made, except for stewed or stewed, what stewed black bear's paw, stewed pheasant, etc.
Sure enough, after three glasses of wine, Regiment Leader Ma deliberately said tentatively: "Shopkeeper Hu, Mantie is not something that anyone can act for, can't you have anything to do with the imperial army?" ”
"Head Ma, you are not an outsider, in fact, the real boss of the company I represent, you may also have heard of it, called Ichito." Fortunately, Hu Da Niu was prepared.
"Ichito? It can't be the original commander of the Kwantung Army at Benkeihu Lake Ichito Daisa, right? As soon as Commander Ma heard Hu Daniu say this, he immediately said.
"I don't really know about this, but I rarely see him. Because the boss is mainly in Shinkyung, but I know that Boss Ichito used to be in charge of the Kwantung Army Joint Command of Benxi Lake and Andong......" Hu Daniu said with a blindfolded look.
Hearing Hu Daniu say this, Captain Ma's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Although Hu Daniu didn't care about what he said, listening to the ears of the head of the horse, the shock level was needless to say. It's not that Regiment Commander Ma doesn't know that this Ichito is the commander-in-chief of the joint command of Benxihu and Andong Kwantung Army. The reason why he didn't say it was because he wanted to test it. And Hu Daniu came as soon as he opened his mouth, which shows that this agent is genuine.
"Haha, shopkeeper Hu, brother Hu, I just remembered when you said this, yes, yes, you are right, Ichito Osa served as the commander-in-chief of the joint command of the Kwantung Army in this area. Come, brother, brother, I will toast you, if there is anything in Miaoergou in the future, tell the eldest brother a good word. In an instant, Captain Ma's enthusiasm increased by an octave.
"Okay, I won't call you Captain Ma anymore, I'll call you Brother Ma. Brother Ma, I, Hu, am a cheerful person, as long as the eldest brother can use my brother for anything in the future, even if it is the head arched, I will help the eldest brother. Hu Daniu looked very excited, and after saying these words, he picked up his wine glass, raised his neck and went down again.
