Peng Yulin and Gilsky have a relationship, and it is more convenient to have this golden signboard. Moreover, the tea, porcelain and other items brought by Peng Yulin are rare items and are easy to sell. After all, Heilongjiang is a bitter cold place, and it is not easy to find such items. Peng Yulin had both connections and money to open the way, and soon mingled with the businessmen here and integrated into the businessmen.

People's tea shop, in the shop.

At this moment, Peng Yulin was chatting with the shopkeeper.

The owner is in the tea business, named Zhu Lianyu, and is a local businessman. He welcomed Peng Yulin's arrival very much, and talked and laughed with Peng Yulin. Among the two, Peng Yulin had the heart to befriend Zhu Lianyu, and Zhu Lianyu from the people's tea shop also wanted to befriend Peng Yulin, and the two hit it off. When it came to the issue of management, Zhu Lianyu complained: "Mr. Peng, you don't know my current situation. The Russians occupied the land, were brutal and robbed at every turn. Not only that, but the taxes were higher than those collected during the Qing Dynasty. Alas, business is not good! ”

When Peng Yulin heard this, he still didn't understand the owner's intentions.

Obviously, he wanted him to reduce the price of tea.

Peng Yulin thought for a moment and sighed: "Brother Zhu, I won't tell you, it's not easy for us to transport tea from the south!" If you encounter pirates at sea, you have to pay money; When you get here, you have to pay the Russians, and you have to do it everywhere. By the time we sell the tea to you, the profit will be very small! Who made the Russians arrogant! ”

When Zhu Lianyu heard this, he was stunned.

He complained to Peng Yulin, but he didn't expect the other party to start complaining.

Peng Yulin thought for a while, lowered his voice and continued: "Brother Zhu, you don't believe me when I say that the profits I earn are less, let me tell you a secret, and you will know our difficulties." The pirates at sea were not ordinary people, they were actually disguised as Russian soldiers. They robbed nonsense, and if it wasn't for good protection, there would be absolutely no tea. In this case, can the price be lower? If this place was still under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty, without the exploitation of the Russians, life would not be so sad! It's not easy for us to transport tea and risk danger everywhere! ”

"Who's to say it isn't?"

Zhu Lianyu sighed and said, "The country is not strong!" As a result, we have all become slaves to the country, and we can't straighten our backs and do things. ”

Peng Yulin sighed and said, "Brother Zhu is reasonable. However, Brother Zhu, you don't live in the south, and you don't know that there is also a strong man in the south. Peng Yulin glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "This person's name is Li Zhen, and he is the king of Zhennan in the Qing Dynasty. This man defeated the armies of the United States, France, Great Britain and other countries, and even the Russian soldiers suffered at his hands. ”

Zhu Lianyu sighed and said: "Mr. Peng, I won't tell you, in fact, there are people here who resist the Russians. ”

"Oh, there's anyone else here?"

Peng Yulin showed a surprised expression, and his heart suddenly became happy.

What Zhu Lianyu mentioned should be Long Xi and Lu Shaochuan.

Zhu Lianyu also lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Peng, I saw that you were from the south, so I told you." There is a group of people on this side who have been rebelling against the Russians. At the head of the pack were two people, one of whom was armed with a Daguan knife and the other with a gun, and they organized the people to fight the Russians. ”

"I didn't expect there to be such a person." Peng Yulin exclaimed.

Zhu Lianyu sighed: "It's a pity that the Russians are too powerful, they are in a difficult situation, and they will not be able to achieve the climate after all." ”

Peng Yulin frowned, but he had already determined that it must be Long Xi and Lu Shaochuan.

One with a knife and the other with a spear must be.

Peng Yulin frowned, and he asked another question, wanting to get out the situation of Lu Shaochuan and Long Xi from Zhu Lianyu's mouth. It's a pity that Zhu Lianyu doesn't know much about things and doesn't know the specific situation. Peng Yulin finally had to give up, stayed in Zhu Lianyu's tea shop for a long time, then got up to say goodbye, walked to the next shop, and continued to inquire about the situation.

……

Junlian Mountain, this mountain is very large, the woods are lush, and there are countless towering ancient trees.

Deep in the dense mountain forest, a team of ragged people gathered here. This group of people are all skinny, and there is no flesh on their faces, as if they are skin and bones. Even the lips are a little chapped, the face is yellow and thin, which is caused by a lack of nutrition and food. Although this group of people is thin, their eyes are bright, revealing a stubbornness that does not admit defeat, and there is a spirit that cannot be defeated.

Among them, a man sits cross-legged with a Daguan knife stuck next to him.

This man's face was full of stubble, and his temples even showed a frosty color.

Although the clothes on this man's body were clean, they had already had countless patches, and many places were rotten beyond repair. It's just that the expression on his face is extremely indifferent, without a trace of anxiety. If Li Zhen was here, he would definitely recognize this person as Long Xi. At this moment, Long Yu has long lost the demeanor of a martial arts master, and there is a sense of despondency everywhere.

Next to Long Xi, there was also a middle-aged man sitting.

This person is none other than Lu Shaochuan.

Lu Shaochuan is not the high-spirited general in the army at the beginning, and he looks very down. His expression tensed, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes. Lu Shaochuan took out the pistol, rubbed it for a moment, and sighed: "Old Dragon, our weapons have been almost used, and there is no food. In addition, the people around Junlian Mountain are also in dire straits, lacking food and clothing, and it is difficult to support us. You say, what are we going to do next? ”

Long Xi said calmly: "Rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the water to eat the water!" ”

Lu Shaochuan sighed and said, "That being said, it has now entered the second half of the year. In the first half of the year, we can rely on wild game and wild vegetables in the mountains to get through, but what about the second half of the year? When the time comes, the mountains will be covered with heavy snow, and there will be no animals and wild vegetables, so we can only drink snow water, and it will be difficult to find food! ”

Long Xi sighed and said, "Lao Lu, why don't I know about our current predicament? But what can we do? The Russian army has been encircling us, and if we go out, we will definitely encounter a net of heaven and earth. For now, we can only hide in the mountains! ”

In fact, Long Xi also has a lot of helplessness.

Before he came, he thought that it should not be difficult to carry out the work, but when he actually did it, he felt the difficulty. Many things could not be carried out at all, because the army of the Russians was simply too strong. In addition, there were few soldiers under his command, and it was difficult to stop the Russians.

Even the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion brought by Long Xi continued to decrease because of this, and only a few dozen people remained. There are not many people left who are following Long Xi, only a few dozen.

The situation that Long Xi faced was very difficult.

"Report!"

A loud shout came from the front of the mountain forest, and a soldier hurriedly ran over and said loudly: "Mr. Long, it's not good, the Russians have started to search the mountain." Let's hide, or we'll be in danger. ”

ps: The second update, working hard. It is said that there should be a fourth watch;
