On the night of September 6, 1900, the Nenjiang Water Division Battalion.

Nenjiang Water Division Battalion, the camp is located on the left bank of the Nenjiang River, about three kilometers away from the city of Morgan, the Navy Division Camp is built near the river, the whole Navy Division Camp is about hundreds of meters long from north to south, about 100 meters wide, mainly divided into four camps.

The sailor battalion was originally built in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and was stationed in various parts of Heishui Province by the original Jilin Ula Sailor Division, in order to prepare for the transportation of grain, expeditions, and maintain local law and order.

The sailor battalion, the central area, in the yamen of the general army, the general soldier Guo Huai sat in the center, and there were four generals sitting on the left and right, and the assistant staff leaders Terjiji, Du Yu, and Song Zhiqiang.

"Lord General Soldier, just now my cousin personally came to match, why didn't Lord Guo push the boat down the river and come down first?"

Terjiji was the first to speak, openly questioning Guo Huai's decision, and the tone was not so polite, it was obvious that it was not as Wanyan Batu saw on the surface, Guo Huai had complete control over the sailor camp, and he was full of words.

"Hehe, Terjiji, what are you anxious about, Mr. Guo took us to eat fragrant and drink spicy food, isn't it very good, why do you have to take refuge in the Black Dragon Army?" Du Yu, the assistant staff leader, snorted, and the smell of wine continued to bubble in his mouth as he spoke, and it was not difficult to see that he should have just come down from the wine table, and it seemed that he had drunk a lot.

"Du Yu, I advise you to drink less alcohol recently, don't one day, someone else will enter our sailor camp, and you won't even know how you died." Tergigi sneered.

"Dergigi, aren't you a little alarmist about this?" Song Zhiqiang, another staff leader who had never spoken, asked with a frown.

"Old Song, if there is any alarmism, you might as well ask the chief soldier." Tergigi said bluntly.

"Lord Commander, what the hell is going on, hasn't the Black Dragon Army always been with our well water and does not violate the river water, why did it suddenly attack our water division camp?" Song Zhiquan's words were even more unkind, and he was completely questioning.

"Hey, the well water doesn't interfere with the river water, that's just the appearance." Guo Huai sighed, and continued: "Actually, since the Black Dragon Army killed the two brothers of Guo Er Duohao and gained a firm foothold in Xigang, I knew that they would attack our sailor battalion sooner or later, but I never expected that the Black Dragon Army would develop so fast, it was really unpredictable, I knew that this was the case, I should have defected earlier, hey, it was too late to say this." ”

"Mr. Guo, why do we have to take refuge in the Black Dragon Army, aren't we pretty good now?" Du Yu seemed to be a little drunk, and suddenly sat up straight and asked, after all, the current life is indeed good, and there is a lot of silver to be made every day, who is willing to work for others and earn those two silver.

"That's right, Mr. Guo, why do you answer this way, why do we get more and more confused the more we listen?" Song Zhiqiang paused, and said: "Even if the Black Dragon Army develops rapidly, but we are sailors, it is really impossible for Mergen to tolerate us, it's a big deal, let's find another station, anyway, the imperial court can't take care of us now, how can the Black Dragon Army tolerate us?" ”

Li Hongzhang and Zengqi really forgot about the Nenjiang Naval Division, or they had long regarded the Nenjiang Naval Division Battalion as a pure grain transportation team, so that after cooperating with Tsarist Russia, they did not think of letting the Naval Division Battalion go to the rescue, especially after the death of General Shoushan, their Naval Division Battalion did not receive any official news from the imperial court.

Of course, this does not mean that the news of the Sailor Battalion is closed, on the contrary, because the Sailor Battalion has made a lot of money in the past few years, which has allowed them to make friends with a large number of court officials and big businessmen, so their news is actually very well-informed, but these outside news, Guo Huai, who generally leads the overall situation, will pay attention to it, and the assistant leaders like Song Zhiqiang usually don't pay attention, they only pay attention to the interests in their hands and in front of them.

Hearing the words of Song Zhiqiang and Du Yu, Guo Huai shook his head helplessly, secretly sighing for his incompetence, in fact, Guo Huai thinks that he is still a person with ideals and revenge, and he has always wanted to build a powerful sailor to avenge the revenge of the First Sino-Japanese War, but he is only a general soldier after all, and it is so difficult to change.

Five years ago, Guo Huai came to the Navy Battalion to take office, and these people in front of him have already been entrenched in the Sailor Battalion, deep-rooted, and it is undoubtedly a fool's dream that he wants to control the Sailor Battalion, Song Zhiqiang and others directly put Guo Huai in the air, in order to be able to gain some right to speak, Guo Huai had to compromise, and even in order to obtain a greater right to speak, he had to personally come up with ideas, contact everyone for private work, and even do smuggling.

Just step by step, a lot of money was earned, at this time Guo Huai wanted to do something again, such as training, such as the purchase of advanced weapons, but these short-sighted guys still disagreed, until there was a dozen cargo ships in the sailor battalion, even the ship with goods were served by the bandits, after suffering this big loss, Terjiji and Song Zhiqiang and others agreed to buy weapons, agreed to let Guo Huai train, since then, the Nenjiang sailor battalion slowly has the current momentum.

If you have money, it is naturally easy to do things, the guns are all smuggled from Tsarist Russia, and the guns on the ship are all imported artillery, plus Guo Huai does have two hands for training sailors, which makes the combat effectiveness of the Nenjiang Navy Division Battalion really good.

However, although Guo Huai has trained an elite soldier, he has never directly controlled this team, because Song Zhiqiang did not give him this opportunity, of course, Guo Huai did not think of a way, but the result in exchange was that Guo Huai's only son was arrested by Song Zhiqiang, and he was still imprisoned by them in private until now, which is also the reason why he asked about his attitude just now, and he Guo Huai could not give an answer, because it was not that he didn't want to respond, but because it was useless because he should go.

Getting back to the point, in the face of Song Zhiqiang's brainless question, Guo Huai didn't bother to answer, and looked directly at Terjiji, who may have known as much as Song Zhiqiang half an hour ago, but after a deep conversation with Tilji, he naturally knew more.

"From my cousin, I heard a lot about the Black Dragon Army, such as the rich county town, the killing of more than 4,000 people in Tsarist Russia, which I personally participated in, and the destruction of the Tsarist East Road Fleet in the Heishui River section of Xunke County, a total of more than 10,000 people,......

As Terjiji told the story, Song Zhiqiang and Du Yu finally couldn't sit still, it turned out that unconsciously, there was actually a tiger entrenched around them, how could this be good?

"Run."

Song Zhiqiang and Du Yu almost said in unison, there are tigers in this place, really, I don't want to stay for a moment.

"Hehe, if you are willing to take this current financial road, just bring your own soldiers and run away with your own wealth, it should be no problem." Guo Huai smiled lightly.

"Why?"

The three of them almost said in unison, the Nenjiang Water Division Camp has been operated by them for more than ten years, and finally has the current grand occasion, if they want them to give up directly, it is better to kill them directly.

"Now that the entire Heishui Province, and even the northern part of Jilin Province, are under the actual control of the Black Dragon Army, do you think we can go if we take the Sailor Division? Now that only our team is left in the entire Blackwater Province is no longer under the control of the Black Dragon Army, do you think the Black Dragon Army will let the war horses leave? Guo Huai said bluntly.

"This is impossible, the Black Dragon Army has risen for less than two months, how can it develop to such a scale, besides, my cousin has not mentioned it." Tergigi said bluntly.

"Hehe, Terjiji, your cousin is just a Qing army general who has just defected to the Black Dragon Army, and he doesn't know many things, so naturally he can't tell you." Guo Huai sneered.

After Guo Huai finished speaking, the whole hall was silent, but Song Zhiqiang and Terjiji stared at Guo Huai with their eyes, obviously asking why Guo Huai knew so much, but he didn't say it earlier, but what is the point of saying it now?

After a dull moment, Du Yu seemed to wake up, and suddenly said: "Terjiji, see if you can talk to your cousin, get in touch, and say that we are willing to take refuge, let's give the Black Dragon Army an offering, give money and food, take care of Nenjiang for him, and run Nenjiang, just like Wanyan Batu's bastard manages Mergen City for them." ”

"Hey, that's a good idea." Song Zhiqiang echoed.

"This ,......

"A few adults, the one who just left, came back again, but only sent an invitation and left."

While he was talking, the door was pushed open, and it turned out that Tierji had sent an invitation back and forth, the content was very simple, inviting Guo Huai and several co-leaders to go to the banquet tomorrow night.

"What should I do?"

"Are you going to the feast?"

"I can't go, this is clearly a Hongmen banquet, and there is no return."

……

Watching the three of them discuss, Guo Huai had a deep sense of powerlessness, such a major decision, he, the chief soldier, actually had no right to speak, I really don't know how to describe my incompetence.

"Perhaps, this is an opportunity, but, son, hey, dad can't help but seize this opportunity."
