Liu Shaoxun in the carriage heard Wang Shihua's voice, opened the curtain to take a look, and saw Wang Shihua with a large number of guards, chasing after him on horseback, and quickly stopped the carriage. After getting out of the carriage, he hugged his fists at Wang Shihua and smiled: "Shihua, why are you here?" ”

"Shaoxun, I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Blame me for not disciplining me well, and spoiling this stinky boy so much, you must not be like him. ”

"What are these words, we are brothers, even if we can't become in-laws, but the love of brothers will not be affected in any way. What's more, I don't think Shifu is particularly opposed. ”

"Cousin, I don't like to hear you say this." Li Jieying jumped out of the carriage angrily, pointed at Wang Shihua in a huff, and said: "Brother Shihua, you give a comment, in terms of appearance, family background, and ability, am I Li Jieying not worthy of him Wang Shifu?" ”

"It's... I know, the more I think about it, the more angry I become, no, I will teach him a hard lesson and give you anger. ”

After some persuasion, Li Jieying, who was cross-mouthed, was finally coaxed into the carriage.

Liu Shaoxun rode on a horse and walked side by side with Wang Shihua.

"Shihua, it seems that the battle between China and Japan is inevitable, what do you think about it? What are you prepared for? If there's anything I can do to help, don't be polite to me. ”

"I have a ball view."

After Wang Shihua scolded aggressively, he laughed in a low voice: "Shaoxun, we are brothers, and I am not satisfied with you." I'll tell you the truth: No matter who Lao Jiang fights with, as long as he doesn't mess with me, it's my business? You're right? ”

Liu Shaoxun smiled and nodded, but in the depths of his smile, he was a little happy: Wang Shihua's attitude definitely has the potential to be a traitor, and it is more beneficial to his plan. After all, it is much more convenient to let Wang Shihua voluntarily become a traitor than to kill him and support others, and the risk factor is much smaller.

"Shaoxun, there aren't many friends who can really make me look at them, so I've never been very polite to my friends."

Seeing that Wang Shihua was a little shy, Liu Shaoxun patted Wang Shihua's shoulder with a smile and said, "There are not many friends who can make me Liu Shaoxun value, so I have always had no reservations about my friends." Shihua, don't say any kind words between us, if there is anything I can help with, just say, I will do my best if I can do it, and I will say it bluntly if I can't do it. ”

"Food, what I lack most now is food."

"You have stored millions of catties of food, not enough?"

"Shaoxun, I won't hide it from you, this grain is enough for the whole family of my Wang family to eat, but I want to use this grain as a weapon to deal with some enemies, so it is far from enough."

Liu Shaoxun nodded, and said with a straight face: "I still have a few friends in Wuhan, and I will visit them when I go back, and I should be able to solve some problems for you." ”

"Huh... Ha... That's great. Shaoxun, I don't know how to thank you for helping me so much. ”

"Just remember, if I beg you one day, don't shake your head."

"How is that possible, go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, if you say a word, if I frown, I won't be a man."

"I'm kidding you. By the way, do you still need medicine here? The next time I come, I'm probably going to have to stay with you for a long time, and then you can ask me to get you medicine, but it will be difficult. ”

In many cases, guns are not as important as medicines, and Wang Shihua is naturally eager to do this: "To ... I want as much as I want. However, Shaoxun, you have to get the money first this time, otherwise, I won't do it, and I can't let you post the money first every time. ”

"Listen to you."

The two of them just talked and laughed all the way back.

Less than five miles from Longtang Town, in the not-so-dense forest on the top of the hill on the right, Pete wore sunglasses, smoked a homemade cigar, and leisurely leaned against the trunk of a tree, roasting sweet potatoes. Next to him, there sat twenty old cadets, like Pete, roasting sweet potatoes or buns and drinking roasted grains...... Wang Shihua attaches great importance to this group of gunners, and gives priority to the supply of all affairs.

On the periphery, twenty new students were holding their heads, squatting on the ground, and doing frog jumping in a circle.

Seeing that more than 300 meters away from the mountain, a group of cavalry was slowly coming, Pete picked up the binoculars and looked at it carefully, and shouted: "Stop, stop, stand up, I will teach you a lesson in person." ”

With Pete's temperament, it would be a waste to let go of the group of old students under him, so he rarely attends classes in person now.

After the new cadets who had been trained by him for more than a month and knew how to stand in a military posture stood in a row, Pete took the horsewhip and walked in front of the new cadets and said, "The name of today's lesson is 'Artillery Ambush Cavalry'. ”

With a whip raised, he pointed to the approaching cavalry and shouted, "Do you see those cavalry below?" In my eyes, they are a flock of lambs to the slaughter. Do you know why? ”

Seeing that no one answered, Pete said triumphantly: "Because artillery is the greatest arm in the world, and it is invincible." Don't believe me, I'll analyze it for you little by little. ”

"First of all, our artillery is always more expensive than the infantry, so the infantry has to protect us on the battlefield; Secondly, we can strike at the enemy from a long distance and in a wide area, and if the enemy does not have artillery, he will only be beaten; In the end, we can wait for the enemy to come and die at any time. As he spoke, Pete pointed to the group of seemingly lazy cavalrymen below and exclaimed, "They are now almost two hundred and fifty meters away from us, which is the ideal strike distance for a small steel cannon." Seeing their laziness and lack of vigilance, I could blow them up with the first shot, and before they could figure out where they were coming from, I gave them three more shots. But it should be noted that the first thing the artillery should hit is the enemy's command post, or rather, the enemy's supreme commander, in your ancient Chinese art of war, this is called a snake hitting seven inches, or a thief to capture the king first... Because in this way, without command, they are a swarm of headless flies, and even if they have judged where we are, when they rush over, we can use the rate of fire of the small steel cannon to bombard it with five or six more shots...... Think about it, after so many shells, how many cavalry are left? By the time the rest of the men rushed in front of us, the infantry defending us would have been able to take them out with ease. That's why I said that artillery is the most powerful and comfortable class in the world..."

No matter how much Pete boasted of the artillery as the king of land warfare, the new cadets were still a little unaccustomed: not to brag about him, but because he had made the head of the house a target for shelling. In everyone's thinking, offending the head of the family is looking for death, not to mention daring to take the head of the family as a target, and it is a matter of course for the whole family to be buried alive.

"If you don't speak, don't you believe it?" Pete looked at them angrily and shouted, "Okay, I'll show you this." ”

As he spoke, Pete personally moved the small steel cannon, set it up, prepared it, and held a cannonball...... Under the stunned gaze of everyone, the cannonball was put on the muzzle......

When everyone's hearts were raised, and some even wanted to stop Pete, Pete looked back at them and said with a strange smile: "You are not good people, but below are your lords, no... It's your head of the family, and you can't bear to watch me blow him up with one shot, what kind of heart do you have? ”

The conscience of heaven and earth... From beginning to end, you directed and acted by yourself, and we didn't even let out a fart, but in the end, it turned out that we were wrong, is there any reason to talk about in this world?

Pete put the cannonball back, looked at the group of new students standing like javelins with solemn expressions, sighed, and said, "War is dead, but people are alive... Imagination... I want you to use your imagination, because only with bold imagination and strict execution can artillery truly become the king of land warfare... Do you understand? ”

Still no one answered, the angry Pete shook his head, walked down the mountain, and muttered: "Train you guys with wood in their heads, I might as well find the head of the house to order more cannonballs, it's a fun thing to blow you up......" As he spoke, Pete slapped his forehead and sighed: "Oh~... My God... My dear Mary is about to come into my arms, and I must ask the master of the house for more, or Mary will laugh at me when she sees me living in such misery. ”

Immediately, looking at Wang Shihua's gaze was like seeing a golden pig on horseback, waving his arms in joy and rushing down the mountain.

"Pete, you ate bee poop?" Wang Shihua slapped his left palm with a horsewhip for a while, and said with a smile: "Seeing you laughing so dirty, it must be no good." ”

"Master of the family, how can you speculate about me so shamelessly, I am a noble instructor, and I am the instructor you hired with a lot of money."

"Come on, let's talk about it, what do you want?"

"Shells... Cannon... I need both of these things urgently. Pete said with a sad face, "Otherwise, I will find myself a waste, sorry for your salary." ”

Wang Shihua laughed.

Neither of them noticed that when Liu Shaoxun heard this, his eyes showed ecstasy: according to his plan, if he wants to control the Wang family's force on the periphery, he must make the Wang family's weapons dependent on Japanese-made weapons, and now, isn't it a good opportunity to send it to the door?

"Don't laugh... If you give me these two things, I guarantee that I can train an artillery unit with strong combat effectiveness, enough for you in Jiangyin County, no... It is rampant and domineering in the entire Xiangxi. ”

Wang Shihua couldn't hear this, and laughed when he heard it.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best to meet your request."

How could Pete not know Wang Shihua's embarrassment in this regard, the reason why he mentioned this is for the next private purpose: if you refuse once, it's not good to refuse a second time immediately, right?

"Head of the house, while I wait for you to fulfill my official request, I need to be satisfied with my personal request."

"Oh~... Tell me..."

"As you know, my dear Mary arrived in Qingdao yesterday and is coming here, and the thought of it makes people's blood boil with excitement. But my place is too small, too shabby, too unpleasant. I need a place to live that matches who I am and what I have done for a long time...... If you, as an employer, let my Mary see my life so miserable, you must not have face, right? ”

"It makes sense..."Wang Shihua thought for a while, and said: "This is indeed my negligence, here, I apologize to you." Go back and ask the butler to meet your request in this regard. ”

"Thank you, God Almighty, for finding such a great, merciful, generous lord."

"You don't have to thank any of you, but if you want to thank me."

"It's... Thank you to the Almighty Head of the House. At this time, Pete, how can he still have a little bit of foreign devil pride, it is completely the flattering expression of the villain.

At this time, the dozens of students came to the side of the road......
