The four battalions of infantry are not difficult to mobilize, but as for the selection of the commander, they have put a lot of thought into it. Because of his meritorious service in guarding Liujiatai, Li Xiushan fought bloody battles, and was exceptionally promoted to be a pipe band, and Cao Zhongkun unified the battalions, and they were all sent to the capital to run errands. This person and Zhao Guanhou are married to Jinlan, and their two battalions can be regarded as Zhao Guanhou's basic troops, but his horse is the leader.

The pipe belt of the other two battalions, one is named Wang Dexian, and the other is Duan Xiangyan, who was demoted two levels. Wang Dexian is mediocre, but he has one advantage, that is, obedience. Yu Shangguan obeyed his orders and did not dare to disobey them, but Duan Xiangyan was still in the body of the crime, and the honor and disgrace were all decided by Zhao Guanhou, and he did not dare not listen. is a combination of these four subordinates, that is, to tell Zhao Guanhou that the entire army is under his control.

The Mini riflemen are the elite of Zhao Guanhou's artillery standard, commanded by his cronies Huo Qiu, to ensure obedience to the dispatch, with this heavy guard, it is not the fault that the boxers and bandits united the right army and the Tiger God Battalion to attack together, otherwise there will never be any problems. When it was time for Texas to set off, Su Hanzhi specially instructed

"Remember to bring Sister Fengzhi, I miss her. She was really, she said okay at the time, I'll go, and she came later, why did it take so long, and there was no news at all. I heard that the fist is making a lot of trouble now, so she shouldn't have any accidents, right? ”

"Not really, I think. She herself is the person in the box, and no one knows about Zhu Hongdeng, not to mention that the master is still a very famous senior in the boxing, so he will not kill her. When I get to Jinmen, I can always pick up people. ”

Originally, when Jiang Fengzhi and him came to Shandong together, they knew each other's intentions, but they just needed a suitable opportunity to marry, even if the formalities were completed. The person who is in trouble is just Jiang's unfailing attitude, whether he wants his only daughter to be small. Of course, Zhao Guanhou also has a way, but it really can't work, so he will make the rice into rice first, and he is not afraid that he will not nod.

It is said that this matter has not changed, who knows that Jiang Fengzhi doesn't know what is wrong, after Su Hanzhi came to Shandong, she has not moved, and when the New Year is over, there is no news. The current situation is becoming increasingly tense, and this time I went to Jinmen, no matter what, I had to take her away. In addition to transporting troops, the train to Beijing this time was specially designed to transport the relatives of the generals who were directly subordinate to the city so as not to be harmed in the future.

In addition to Shigege, there was also Mrs. Jenson, who also had a lot of business in Jinmen, and this time she had to deal with it. She is not afraid of smashing, according to her, no matter how many things are destroyed, Jin Guo will have to compensate her better in the future, so she doesn't care at all. But after all, I have to go back and take a look, in addition, there are several warehouses in stock, and I have to take the opportunity to clean it up, so that in the future, I can plant it on the head of the Flying Tiger Group and leave the materials for Zhao Guanhou to use.

Zhao Guanhou took out 10,000 taels from the silver ticket and handed it to Jensen, telling her to try to buy some shells and Mini guns, as well as military raw materials and various medicines. In the event of war, these are all in short supply, and even good things that money can't buy. As for the problem of this part of the payment, it is always from the bank turnover, only the handling fee, which can always be excused.

Mrs. Jensen's face was also extremely solemn, she had many friends in the foreign circle, and she had always been well-informed, and the news she found out this time was also very unfavorable to Jin Guo. First of all, Tiele sent a note to Jin Guo, if Jin Guo was unable to deal with the boxers of Zhili, Tiele would send troops to help suppress it based on the friendly relations between the two countries for many years.

Since Tiele started, Yu Guo was not left behind, and then it was Fusang who made similar demands. Among the two countries, the former has the advantage of occupying the land of Longxing outside the Guan, and the latter has the old habit of occupying the Ryukyus, both of which are friendly neighbors of the first class of the Jin State.

These two countries are not just talking, Tiele has already begun to mobilize troops, send warships, and transport troops in the direction of Dagukou. Although the people did not come ashore, the momentum was sufficient, and the slightest spark was enough to cause a big mess. Although Prussia and other countries were not so radical, there was also public opinion in China to send troops to the country to exterminate the boxers.

In other words, the great powers want to seek the heart of the country, not only for a day, but the division must be famous after all. If any country wants to eat too many benefits on Jinguo, it has to consider whether it will touch the bottom line of other powerful countries. Therefore, in the past, it can be said that countries were able to maintain a delicate balance and slightly check and balance each other. As soon as the matter of the boxers came out, all countries had the pretext of sending troops to intervene, and it was already very difficult to contain them.

Zhang Tong, who is good at handling foreign affairs, took advantage of the vacancy of the governor of Liangguang and operated in many ways, and finally got his wish, released Liangguang, and avoided the land of right and wrong. The officials in the capital who are in charge of foreign affairs cannot be compared with Zhang Tong, and their prestige is far worse. What's more, there are still forces in Duan, Zhuang and Zhuang that are making obstacles from it, and there are also Qingliu cardinals, who are trying to eliminate the foreign and talk about peace, and it is almost impossible to talk about it, and it is only a matter of time before the war disaster occurs.

Belgium is a small country, and it has little interest in participating in this kind of sending troops to fight, at most it is just following behind to get some foreign wealth and pick some cheap. Mrs. Jenson didn't pay much attention to these things. But as soon as Zhao Guanhou stepped into this pit of right and wrong, she had to think about her lover and see how he could get out of this dangerous situation.

Cao Zhongkun and others also knew that this departure must be dominated by Zhao Guanhou, so they listened to orders with peace of mind. Only Duan Xiangyan had the weakest guts, and when he heard that the situation was critical, he almost wanted to write an excerpt to ask for sick leave to open the vacancy, and not go to Beijing to die.

Zhao Guanhou said with a smile: "Don't worry about it, we are all handsome henchmen, how can we send us a task to die?" Although the situation is dangerous this time, as long as you are smart, you can always protect yourself. As for his subordinates, how much can be guaranteed, do what he can, and the marshal will not be demanding. Before leaving, the soldiers were given two months' salary, which was actually to buy them to dare to die. ”

As soon as he said this, he said that he could abandon the soldiers when necessary, leave the battle, and never blame the peak, and these people were somewhat sure. Zhao Guanhou said again:

"In our camp, many brothers' families are in Zhili, and this time we are not only going to Jingli to help the field, but also for our own plans. When the fight starts, the family members will inevitably suffer, and this train is a life-saving car. I calculated, and after pulling another sentry of our four battalions, there is still a surplus in the place, and there is also equipment and food. When all these things are unloaded, it will be a part of the space again. Squeeze it a little more and transport more people, it is not a problem. And in this part of the head, I think I can squeeze out about 600 seats and sell 600 tickets. ”

Glancing at everyone, Zhao Guanhou smiled with a smile on his face, "Several of them are smart people, I don't need to say anything about this, everyone knows it." At this time, the boxers were dismantling the railroad and burning sleepers, and even Tessie's engineer was killed. Those who want to flee are mostly by carriage, but the carriage can't escape quickly, and the second is not far, the Flying Tiger Regiment searched the carriage along the way, and when they encountered them, the lightest was to snatch the luggage, and the heavy ones might not even be able to save their lives. The train is fast and safe, and I think the gentry and magnates will be willing to spend money. ”

The business opportunities here, several people present basically understood that Wang Dexian was the oldest, and he was born in the earth, no matter how you look at it, he is also a local guy. He said with a smile: "This ticket can indeed be done, but it has to be done by adults, we are doing it with you this time, and it is up to you to decide how to do it." Whoever you say will be on, and whoever you don't want will not be allowed to go. ”

Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Brother Wang is too polite, speaking of which, you are still a senior in the army, I have to call you brother, but don't call you an adult, you can't afford it." Naturally, we have to get into the car with our own people first, but other people can also bring a little. My family members have already picked it up, but in Jinmen, there are some friends who left me fifty in the seats of my family members, and then left fifty tickets in the tickets, and the rest is the income of your family members this time. ”

The four of them knew that this was to send money and favors to themselves, and it was also Zhao Guanhou who deliberately enveloped him to avoid everyone from being suspicious. Obviously, what he wants to catch is not silver, but troops. Cao Zhongkun said: "Fourth, among the few of us, your brain is the best, and you have the idea of this matter." The third child has a lot of families, let him have more people, and my tickets will not be sold, and they will be adjusted by you. I don't know many people, but the Keshuai family is kind to me, just let them get in the car. ”

Li Xiushan shook his head: "The daughters of our family have already been sent to Shandong for refuge. As for the men, they can't go. Eating this bowl of rice is a face, the more this happens, the more you can't hide, and you can't stand up if you hide. So my family's family tickets are all reserved for the fourth, and whoever you want to get on the bus can get on the bus. ”

Jensen's friends are all foreigners, so they don't need to take this special train. It's a wide range of friends, I don't know where there are acquaintances, whether it's selling tickets or giving favors, there are a lot of people she wants to give. If Zhao Guanhou does not make this gesture, in the future, there will inevitably be gossip below.

Now he made his attitude first, and with the cooperation of Cao and Li, Wang and Duan had nothing to say, and the two of them were not in Zhili, so they gave up the tickets of their family members and assigned them to Zhao Guanhou.

When it was getting late, Zhao Guanhou had a beautiful woman on the left and right, but he couldn't fly with wings, and he felt a little regretful. But Shigege and Jensen were not in a good mood, and neither of them had the heart to do this, so he had to coax the two of them and gossip.

Shigege said: "Looking out of the car window during the day, it is really a bit scary, on both sides of the road, you can always see red scarves moving, as if it is a sea of fire." When I was in Shandong, I didn't realize this, but when I arrived in Zhili, I felt scary. The train line can't be preserved, so I have to go through a section to repair a section, I really don't know when another gang of boxers will come. ”

"Don't worry, they don't dare come. Of course, they hate the name of the Wuwei Right Army, but the problem is that we have four battalions of people. Hearing this number, they lost their souls first, no matter how they scolded, they didn't dare to fight. Now although these people are bold, they are also invincible, and if they suffer a big loss on us, they will not be able to make it. However, there are indeed too many of them, and their behavior is indeed excessive, and this Fenglufeng army is really too much. ”

Jenson said with a sad face, "I already smell war and death, Crown, if you want, you can come with me to Belgium ......"

"Thank you, my lady. Even if there is a war, it will not necessarily hurt me, you just have to rest assured. My life is very big, and I don't die so easily. In fact, the war is good news for you, your mine business is booming, and I heard that the concessions around the country are buying mines to prevent boxing bandits, and you are making a lot of money. ”

Naoli since the beginning of the year, there has been no rain, the weather in early summer, the weather in the north has been extraordinarily hot, this year's summer heat came early, the weather is stuffy and hot, always make people feel that a breath is pressed in the throat, breathing is uncomfortable.

When it came to the old faucet, the weather was even hotter, and no matter how much the wind was fanned, it was not cool. The railway line from Jinmen to Beijing only leads to Yangcun, and the people who go further are all destroyed, the station is burned, the foreign engineer is missing, and the railway is no longer passable. The soldiers of the fourth battalion first got off at Jinmen to rest, and then marched to the capital. The train stops at the station and waits for the family to board the train before heading back.

There are one or two more trains from Jinmen, and those who flee hope to take this last train to leave the land of right and wrong. The station was extremely crowded, with a large number of people carrying packages and luggage, desperately squeezing inside.

Women and the elderly will always suffer on such occasions, and from time to time there will be women's screams, or the screams of the elderly. finally saw thousands of soldiers, coupled with the bright bayonets, so that these people who entered the station did not dare to make a mistake, and obediently gave way to a way.

Zhao Guanhou called Wang Dexian, "Brother Wang, your battalion of people, stay at the station." First, to prevent the boxers from burning the capital station, they also burned our station. Second, don't let people who don't have tickets get on the bus. Let's do it according to the rules and get on the bus when we see the ticket. If you don't have a ticket, don't let it go when you say it. ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I understand all the humble duties."

Cao Zhongkun took a group of people back to Beitang first to pick up his family, and Zhao Guanhou thought about going to Meng's house first, sending Meng Siyuan's family on the train, and then going to Jiang Fengzhi. The army was unable to move, so he only brought Huo Qiu's Minnie rifle post, and the other troops were stationed in the old place of Xinnong Town first. Another battalion of soldiers was assigned to escort Shigege and Jensen to the Purple Bamboo Forest and enter the concession.

Zhao Guanhou, the sentinel, just set off, he saw dozens of boxers with red scarves on their heads and red belts around their waists, coming over with knives and guns, and saw Zhao Guanhou wearing a flower feather on his head and riding on a high-headed horse, so he glared angrily. Zhao Guanhou only regarded them as the remnants of Liu Jiatai, and was vigilant, and Huo Qiu's hand was also put on the revolver.

However, these people did not attack, but just looked at Zhao Guanhou with angry eyes, which made him a little confused. This kind of look is not hatred, but pure anger, and it is difficult for me to wear something taboo and attract their fire.

Along the way, he met more and more boxers along the way, three or five groups before and after, there were four or five hundred people, all of whom glared at him angrily, but they saw that there were soldiers around him, and they did not use force.

Kankan walked to Xinglong Street, and there were four top horses on the opposite side, and four material officials on the horse, all of whom were officials with crowns. Those who can use such people as top horses will not have a small official position. Zhao Guanhou hurriedly reined in his mount, only to see that a veteran behind the four people, wearing a bright red top on his head, wearing a unicorn supplement suit, with a dignified appearance and dignified appearance, old and not decaying, and his eyes were full of light. He also knew this person, it was Cheng Gongting, the commander of the famous Wuwei Front Army in the Wuwei Army.

This person is a veteran general of the Huai Army, who has been fighting horses for half his life and has outstanding military achievements. Back then, he listened to it under Yuan Jiasan, and had some incense with Yuan Weiting. He has old qualifications in the army, a big name, and he is also a first-class named commander, whether in public or private, Zhao Guanhou must dismount when he sees him.

But without waiting for Zhao Guanhou to get off the horse, not far away, one hundred and ten boxers with red scarves on their heads and knives and guns had already rushed here, and the first middle-aged man pointed at Cheng Gongting with a big knife and scolded angrily: "Cheng Devil, get down, let us meet today!" Do you still want to keep your head? ”

Cheng Gongting only had four guards, and he didn't dare to answer, so he lowered his head and urged the horse, but he wanted to escape. Zhao Guanhou shouted on the road, "Cheng Junmen, you are a large adult, and you are not as knowledgeable as Cao Kou, but you can't look past your humble position." Huo Qiu, shoot! (To be continued.) )
