Chapter 18: The Axe Gang
"Instructors, more than 300 people have been recruited, many of them are from the water patrol brigade, like **, Bai Yongsheng, Song Tiecheng, Liu Hai and others, all of whom are good hands in the water."
"Haha, it's really good, I really want to come to whatever I want, hand over all the people of the water patrol team to Long Baichuan for training, I will be of great use in a few days." The rest of the people are under your command, be sure to step up training, dragon and snake battles are in the world, and the more combat power you have, the more you will have protection. ”
After listening to Fang Tianming's report, Liu Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, the water master is very important in the entire battle plan, and now with these people, his road to fame is bound to be smoother.
"Yes, Tianming must do his best to make them combat effective as soon as possible. Instructor, this is today's newspaper, there is news of the sale of prisoners, it seems that Youdao has already made a move. ”
"Oh, bring it to me and I'll take a look."
This is the Huating Daily on February 3, and the first page published Liu Yi's heroic deeds - a song sung by 10,000 people, 300 warriors defeated 10,000 people! The sub-board published the information on the sale of prisoners, and the article read: "The Huating Axe Gang adheres to the justice of the world, acts for the heavens, and specializes in killing enemies and traitors. A few days ago, Liu Ada, a member of my Axe Gang, and Yan A'er, were insulted by the Rotten Snake People because the citizens were insulted by the Rotten Snake People, and in righteous indignation, they entered the Rotten Snake Army Primary School with their bare hands and captured the waste Shark Island alive.
Then they ran ten miles, and the two of them went straight to the headquarters of the Rotten Snake Navy alone, defeated Wan Kou with empty fists, and captured two pigs alive - Shiozawa Koichi and Murai Kuramatsu.
When the hero returned, his hands were itchy and unbearable, and he went to Liu Yi to drink and gamble money, but the back of his luck was not for eternity, and he lost his family and property, and in order to repay his gambling debts, he disposed of these three animals at a very low price, one million meters of gold. In addition, 50,000 meters of gold from Yoshiko Kawashima and 1 million meters of gold from Yanlong Sword were received at a high price! ……”
"There is a way this week, and it is ......"
"Haha, instructor, this is the only way to sell the three captives, the rotten snake has contacted me and is ready to redeem them, when do you see the transaction?"
"Well, you don't have to wait for the end of the war, just trade now, you have to prepare well, and you must beware of the Rotten Snake Man playing conspiracy!"
"Please rest assured, instructor, if you have a way to be careful, I will go and sell prisoners."
After getting Liu Yi's permission, Zhou Youdao hurriedly went to arrange the transaction, and through negotiation between the two parties, he decided to meet with Watanabe Masao, the special envoy of the Rotten Snake, in the concession tomorrow morning.
On February 4, Zhou Youdao went to the concession alone, carefully reconnoitred, and really found Lifu, but he was not nervous and still appeared at the trading place as promised.
"Mr. Zhou, what about our prisoners of war?"
"Haha, I have never believed what the rotten snake people say, but today I saw that it was true, although your country's arrangements are strict, but our Axe Gang doesn't care about it, Watanabe-kun, do you know why?"
"This ......, please ask Mr. Zhou for advice!"
"Haha, I'm just a dead soldier of the Axe Gang, and I can sacrifice myself for the gang leader at any time, but it's a pity, if I can't bring back three million meters of gold, the expatriates in the Northeast and Huating of your country will be unlucky.
Alas, we Axe Gang hate shameless people the most, I don't know how many people will be buried with me by then, this deal is worth it, do it, I can't wait. ”
"Your ......, Mr. Zhou, I think you misunderstood, our Rotten Snake Empire is the most trustworthy, and the contemptible people came this time just to negotiate the price with you, after all, three million meters of gold is too much."
"Don't buy it if it's too expensive, the buyer is not worth your family, we don't have to worry about the goods not being able to sell, so we will leave."
"Mr. Zhou, please don't be angry, the empire will definitely redeem the prisoners of war, I will go to raise money immediately, and I will trade here tomorrow."
At this time, there are hundreds of thousands of rotten snake expatriates in Yanlong, and once they offend the Axe Gang, the consequences will be unimaginable. Watanabe Masao did not dare to arrest Zhou Youdao in the end, so he could only truthfully report the situation to Nomura Kichizaburo.
"Your Excellency General, the Huating Axe Gang has a large number of people, and their whereabouts are very secretive, once they form a mortal enmity with them, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of expatriates in the empire will be killed, and this matter should be considered in the long run."
"Alas, the most terrifying thing is such a gang, there are many people, and they can't find a place to hide, if they really kill the imperial expatriate, we will die and die, report to the base camp."
There are many gang forces in the rotten snake, and Nomura Kichizaburo knows the consequences of dealing with him, and in desperation, he can only report to the rotten snake headquarters. He was going to pay the money to ransom people first, and after occupying Huating, he would destroy the Axe Gang and recover the funds.
"Instructor, the three million meters of gold have been successfully obtained, and it is estimated that the Rotten Snake Man only understood at this time that it was not the Huating Axe Gang who traded with them."
"Huh? There is a way, prepare 100,000 meters of gold and 1,000 rotten snake firearms, let's go to the axe gang for a trip, this Wang Yaqiao is a masterpiece, we steal his name, we must express it. ”
"Instructor, is this necessary?"
"Of course, it is necessary, in these troubled times, the power of the gang cannot be underestimated, even if we can't subdue them, we must be friendly with them. Besides, our ambition is to save the country and strengthen the country, and we have no strength at the moment, so we should not build more strong enemies to avoid suffering. ”
Liu Yi admired Wang Yaqiao very much in his heart, this person was jealous and hateful, and he was most unaccustomed to seeing the poor being bullied, so he formed an axe gang, defeated the gang boss Du Hongqing and others, assassinated Shi Tuzhi, and formed a small regime, which can be described as famous.
After the outbreak of the Battle of Huating, Wang Yaqiao gathered 3,000 troops, actively cooperated with the 19th Army, attacked the Rotten Snake officers many times, and secretly blew up the Rotten Snake warship, and there were many heroic deeds.
Wang Yaqiao warmly entertained Liu Yi, and the two participated in the battle together in Huating, and Liu Yi's great achievements made him admire. Moreover, what the Iron Blood Gang did in Kangzhou was also robbing the rich and helping the poor, and they had many similarities with the Axe Gang, and the two were destined to become friends.
Offering rice gold and weapons, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up, Liu Yi was worried that there was no one available under him, and while he was drunk, he was busy telling the story of borrowing people.
"Senior, there is a lack of soldiers and generals under Yi, and there is a scheming Anhua Pavilion, how can I be weak, I don't know if my predecessors can help me?"
"Bo Yan needs the foolish brother to do something, but it doesn't matter, the Axe Gang has three or four thousand people, and they can be dispatched by the virtuous brother!"
"Senior, the heart of the Rotten Snake Country will not die, the war in Huating is about to be rekindled, in order to completely drive away the Rotten Snake people once and for all, Yi is creating a special weapon. In another month, this batch of weapons will be complete, but no one will operate it, so I have the shame to borrow 3,000 soldiers from my predecessors, I don't know if it is possible? ”
"Huh? As long as we can defeat the rotten snake people, more than 3,000 people in our department are willing to obey Boyan's dispatch! ”
Wang Yaqiao groaned slightly, and finally agreed to Liu Yi, and from this moment on, Huating had an additional special force, laying a solid foundation for the victory of the decisive battle of Huating.
Author's words: I've been too busy recently, and I caught up with the book to sign and make an appointment, and I just broke off for a day, and I won't be in the future, I hope to get everyone's preference and support!
