(Thank you for the continued support of the valuable students who have wasted the opportunity!) Also, ask for a recommendation! Collect! I didn't recommend it this week.,The results are a little bleak.,My heart.。 )
"Well, have you heard? Some time ago, there was a unit of ours that killed thousands of foreign devils outside the city, and a few days ago they killed a battalion of Japanese and a battalion of British in the capital. "In a teahouse in the Japanese-occupied area, after the restoration of normal order, the teahouse has become the most lively place, whether it is the Japanese spies or the people who have taken refuge here, they want to drill into it.
Because here you can find out the latest news, and at the same time, you can also inquire about all kinds of gossip.
"I said Sun Lao Liu, where did you get this bullshit news? If our army could make such a big move, would there not even be a word on it? A group of people began to question Sun Lao Liu's sources.
From the beginning to the present, the imperial court has been losing, and even the Empress Dowager of the West Palace and the emperor have to flee the capital in a hurry, so that it is still one thing whether there is a place to settle now.
If the army of this imperial court had won such a big victory, would it not disclose this matter with the urine nature of the imperial court? Even if it is to rub the sharpness of foreigners, the court will definitely not cover this matter to death.
"There is a horse on the road, do you know? Today at noon, Lao Tzu had the honor to eat wine with Ma Sanye in the same restaurant, this is what Ma Sanye said personally, and not only did he hear about it, Ma Sanye also saw those people, not only that, but also knew where they were. Sun Lao Liu showed off with disdain.
"Are you talking about Ma Sanye from the Chengxi Martial Arts Bodyguard Bureau?" Everyone asked.
"Could it be that there is someone else in Beijing named Ma Sanye?" Sun Lao Liu said triumphantly.
"Sun Lao Liu is right, I have also heard about this matter, and I have heard a bigger news." A man suddenly spoke in support.
Sun Lao Liu looked up at this person, and his intuition was a little young, and he didn't have any impression of him in his mind. But Sun Lao Liu is a gangster in the capital on weekdays, and there are more people who have seen him, and it is impossible for Sun Lao Liu to remember everyone.
Subconsciously, Sun Lao Liu regarded the other party as an unknown ordinary person in the capital.
"Then tell me, what is the news that you have learned? Don't make a mistake just to get eyeballs. Sun Lao Liu took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.
"I have a friend who works on the foreigner's side, and I learned this from my friend. Presumably, you are deeply frightened by what the foreigners have been doing in the past few days, right? According to my friend, it was precisely because of the sudden appearance of this mysterious army that it inflicted heavy losses on the foreigners' armies one after another, and every time they met, they completely annihilated the foreigners. The foreigners were furious, and wanted to use this to coerce this mysterious army to come out and fight the foreigners to the death. However, foreigners don't dare to do too much in this matter, according to my friend, I'm afraid that foreigners will change their sex in the next few days. ”
"Yo, it seems that your friend's news is quite good, right? Is there any more exciting news? Sun Lao Liu was stunned at first, and Ma Sanye also vaguely mentioned two sentences about this matter, but he didn't dare to explain it.
But now this guy is telling the ins and outs of this so clearly, which makes Sun Lao Liu believe the other party's words instantly, so he can't wait to say something.
"There is news, but ......" the other party was a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Sun Lao Liu hurriedly waved his hand to signal the crowd to disperse, and pulled away the chair next to him, motioning for the other party to sit down.
The man attached himself to Sun Laoliu's ear and whispered a few words.
Immediately, Sun Lao Liu looked at the other party with a happy face: "Is this true?" ”
"Of course it's true, otherwise what would I do here every day? But I sold you this news, and I won't have much when the time comes. The man said temptingly.
"Good! Good! If what you say is true, I'll give you thirty percent. You wait for me here, and I'll go back as soon as I go. Sun Lao Liu stood up excitedly and was about to leave, and before leaving, he didn't forget to shout to the shopkeeper: "Xiao Er, serve this brother a pot of good tea, count it on my account." ”
…………
In the Japanese barracks, the commander of the Japanese army, Fukushima Yasumasa, frowned tightly.
In recent days, there has been tremendous pressure on the Japanese side within the coalition forces, forcing Fukushima Yasumasa to bear tremendous pressure as well.
The Japanese army was incompatible with the coalition forces, making the Japanese army, who chose to treat this war in a normal way, become the most special one in this war.
And the reason for all this is because of that damn 'ghost army', they have attacked not only the Japanese many times, but also the Russians and the British.
Although Fukushima Yasumasa is trying his best to restore order in the area on the surface, he has secretly sent people to find out the traces of the 'ghost army'.
Because an army of hundreds of people cannot mysteriously disappear under any circumstances. Even an ant will leave a few traces after passing by.
"Nani? You say you have news of them? Fukushima Yasumasa was stunned for a moment, and then confirmed with some excitement.
If there is news of that force, it will be good news for Fukushima Yasumasa and the entire coalition forces.
Moreover, if this army can be eliminated on the battlefield, then the Qing court will no longer have any ability to resist, and even at the negotiating table, they will lose the last straw.
"Yes, a gangster nicknamed Liu Lao Liu said that he knew the news of that unit, but the other party asked for a bounty and told us their location."
"Nani? Silver? Fukushima Yasumasa wondered.
The coalition did issue bounty notices, but the names of the mysterious troops were not included in the list of those noticed.
The first reason is that the coalition forces do not know more about the other side and cannot issue a specific bounty. The second is because the coalition forces don't want the news that they have been wiped out by four battalions to spread, so they have been secretly investigating the news of this unit.
"Yes, Your Excellency Commander, Liu Lao Liu claimed that someone told him that as long as he told us the news of that army, he would get a reward of one thousand taels of silver, and Liu Lao Liu was also very smart, he only needed five hundred taels of silver."
"Go and tell this Liu Lao Liu, as long as he leads us to this mysterious army, give him a thousand taels of silver. If he's just trying to cheat him out of the bounty, then kill him directly. Fukushima Yasumasa nodded, a thousand taels of silver, it's not that he can't take it out, if this news is true, then it's okay to give him a thousand taels of silver.
"Your Excellency, if the news is true, do we really want to give him a thousand taels of silver?"
Fukushima Yasumasa nodded and reprimanded, "Matsushita-kun, don't forget what we are putting on so much pressure now? If this news is true, what we have paid is only a thousand taels of silver, but what we have obtained is the improvement of the credibility of the Great Japanese Empire, this person is a gangster in the capital, and he has access to a wide range of people and things, which can help us improve our credibility to the greatest extent. ”
"Hey! His Excellency the Commander taught that Panasonic remembered His Excellency's guidance. Matsushita saluted.
