Chapter Twenty-Seven: The First Encounter with the Master
Fujikawa Masao, who fled back to Lushun in embarrassment, is now in a particularly irritable mood, his face is surprisingly ugly, and he is dancing his war knife wildly in the office, and messy papers are everywhere. The battle of Phoenix Ridge made Fujikawa Masao, who thought highly of himself, feel a deep sense of shame and frustration. Mu Han sat on the side, pensive.
"Fujikawa Daisa, Kihan Daisa, the commander is invited!" A messenger came to report.
In the office of the headquarters of the Kwantung Army in Lushun, Shigeru Honjo, Ishihara Waner, and Kenji Dohihara were seated respectively. An unusually beautifully decorated sword sits on the desk.
Honjo picked up the sword and gently wiped it, and the various gems and gold and silver carvings reflected the brilliant brilliance. "Yo Xi, it really deserves to be the beloved thing of the Chinese emperor, and these decorations alone are worth a lot of money!"
"Report!" Fujikawa Masao shouted worriedly.
"Come in!" Fujikawa Masao and Mu Han walked into the headquarters office in tall figures.
"Mu Hanjun, good job, you can finally get back the Nine Dragons Sword from the competition of all forces, I want to reward you well!"
"Thank you Commander for your kindness, in fact, the greatest credit this time is Fujikawa-kun, if it weren't for Fujikawa-kun's desperate rescue, I'm afraid I would have been loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."
Fujikawa Masao really didn't expect that Mu Han could speak for him like this, and there was a sense of gratitude in his eyes.
"No, no, no! Mu Hanjun is too modest, I have carefully studied your plan and deployment in the Great Black Mountain, and I have to say that you are really a tactical genius of the younger generation of our Great Japanese Empire, so you should have a bigger stage for development. β
"Your Excellency, Commander, I am actually ashamed to be humble, and in that situation, I have no better choice in order to complete the task. I am very sorry for the death of the imperial elite such as Jiro Ono. β
"No, no, no, although the casualties for the Nine Dragons Sword are a bit large, these efforts are still worth it, so Mu Hanjun should not blame himself."
At this time, guards came to report, and the remnants of the Manchu royal family, Xiqia and Kawashima Yoshiko, arrived.
Seeing Yoshiko Kawashima, dressed in a Japanese military uniform, and Xiqia, who was dressed in royal attire, walk in, Mu Han's heart suddenly shrank.
"Miss Fangzi, Mr. Xiqia invited the two of you to come this time, mainly because he wants to ask you for help!"
"Your Excellency, Commander, please speak!"
Honjo picked up the sword on the table, "This is the Nine Dragons Sword, the beloved item of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty brought back from Rehe Chengde by the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire. β
"Ahh The two let out an exclamation at the same time, Xiqia looked sincerely frightened, and Yoshiko Kawashima's eyes lit up.
"Both of them were once descendants of the Manchu royal family, so I asked them to help identify them. Please! β
Looking at the sword in front of her, Yoshiko Kawashima looked calm, Xiqia's eyebrows tightened, and time seemed to freeze.
"I grew up in Japan, so I don't remember much about the past! I'm very sorry for Your Excellency, General. Yoshiko Kawashima bowed.
After another half an hour, Xi Qia said slowly: "Commander Honzhuang Fan, this sword is indeed a royal thing of my ancestors in terms of craftsmanship, shape, material, jewelry, and style. According to the records of the Royal Arsenal, the Nine Dragons Sword has a total of 5 feet, the hilt is extraordinarily long, and 9 golden dragons are carved on it, symbolizing "ninety-nine to one". The scabbard is made of precious shark skin, inlaid with ruby sapphires and diamonds, and is priceless! Therefore, after comparison, this sword is indeed a Nine Dragons sword. β
"Hahaha! Yo Xi, there are two Lao, thank you very much. We still have important military matters to discuss. I'll take the time to feast for both! β
After the two retreated, Shigeru Honjo, Ishihara Waner, Kenji Dohihara and shouted Banzai with a wild smile on their faces. Fujikawa Masao also showed a relieved look, and Mu Han's nervous heart finally calmed down.
"Commander Shigeru Honjo, Daisa Ishihara, and Kenji Dohihara, I don't think it's time for us to be happy."
"Oh! Why did Kihan-kun say that? β
"I think getting the Nine Dragons Sword is only half the battle, but we haven't cracked the treasure map in the sword yet! To tell you the truth, Fujikawa-kun and I also carefully studied the Nine Dragons Sword on the way back to Lushun, from the pattern and style of the scabbard to the design and engraving of the sword body, we did not get any clues about the treasure map. β
"Yes, Your Excellency Commander, Kihan-kun is right. Mu Hanjun also specially ordered the Chinese Jianghu aliens he snare to also study together. But so far, nothing has been found. Masao Fujikawa took over and said.
"Well, Kihan-kun is very thoughtful. Mu Hanjun, tell me about the opinions of the Chinese Jianghu people under you. β
"Hey, I have a man from country Z who is very interested in poisons. After carefully examining the Nine Dragons Sword, he thought that if there was really a treasure map, it could only be painted on the sword body with a special potion, and if he wanted to crack it, he had to know the formula of the medicine. Because if you rashly extract the medicinal ingredients from the sword, I am afraid that the completion of the treasure map will be destroyed. So we can't be too optimistic yet! Mu Han said very seriously.
"Well, Kihan-kun really deserves to be an excellent officer of my Great Japanese Empire, he is rigorous and far-sighted, and he is very good! So what do you think we should do next? β
Mu Han thought about it carefully and said: "I think that we can start from the following aspects, first, use the power of the Manchu royal family loyal to us to find the royal classics of the Qing Dynasty in the country Z. Second, it is rumored that the treasure is in the northeast, we can go to the Shengjing Museum to find clues, because it is the Shengjing Imperial Palace before the Manchus, the ruler of the Qing Dynasty in the country Z, and the Shengjing Palace after the Qing Dynasty moved the capital to the capital, maybe we will have unexpected discoveries there. Third, we are mobilized to study together with the masters of Kampo in Japan, because in the face of such huge interests, the people of country Z are unreliable. β
Mu Han thought to himself, now that Lushun has been arranged, it is imminent to enter Fengtian.
"Yo Xi! Yo West! Kihan-kun is really worthy of being the proud protΓ©gΓ© of Principal Tsuchihara. So what exactly are your plans! β
"Ladies and gentlemen, Sun Tzu of country Z has a cloud in the art of war, and he knows himself and his opponent and wins all battles. For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor's great cause, I began to learn the Chinese language when I was in Japan and became familiar with the history books of the country. After coming to country Z, especially after the Lushun incident, I felt that in order to completely conquer country Z, in addition to the heroic army of our Great Japanese Empire, we must also use various means to recruit the elite talents of country Z to do things for us. Regarding the Nine Dragons Sword, I think if this sword really has a treasure map, and the location of the treasure is outside the pass before the Qing Dynasty emperor entered the customs, according to the habit of the people of Z to always keep their hands behind when doing things, then Shengjing Palace must go. Therefore, I implore Commander Shigeru Honjo and Mr. Kenji Dohihara to help me prepare for the identity of a citizen of country Z, and it is best to have access to the top of the Northeast Army in Mukden, so that it will be convenient for me to do things. β
Quiet! Quiet! It's incredible. In particular, Ishihara Wan'er and Kenji Dohihara looked at Mu Han with almost incredible eyes, because Mu Han's plan was almost a copy of the Nine Dragons Sword of their "K" plan. But they could not have imagined that all of Mu Han's preparations and plans were aimed at them!
"Bang bang! Unexpectedly, Mu Hanjun not only has excellent planning and deployment, but also has a talent for espionage work! I have your back! Kenji Tsuchihara applauded first.
"Hahaha! I really didn't expect Mu Hanjun to have such a careful thinking! Well, I couldn't agree more. The matter of the Nine Dragons Sword of Kihan-kun is your sole responsibility from now on. But you don't have to be too anxious, as long as our plan K is successful, we will have enough time and manpower and material resources to solve the matter of the Nine Dragons Sword. Mu Hanjun boldly do it, you can use all the power of the Kwantung Army at will. If you need anything, come to me directly! Honjo Fan said with satisfaction, "Tu Hihara Xianjun, Mu Hanjun broke into the high-level of the Fengtian Northeast Army, you will arrange it!" β
"Your Excellency Commander, in fact, this is very simple, Mr. Xiqia who went out just now, isn't it a good way! He successively served as chief of staff of the three eastern provincial embassies, chief of education of the Jiangwutang, commander of the 10th Northeast Brigade, chief of staff of the Jilin Supervisory Military Office, director of training of the Jilin Army, and chief of staff of the deputy commander of the Jilin Frontier Army. With Mu Hanjun's outstanding military command level and strategy, I think the top brass of the Northeast Army should be honored to have such a talent join them. Isn't it? Kenji Dohihara said with a smile,
"Yo Xi! Yo West! This is really a wonderful thing, it seems that Kinokun's plan really came naturally! Kihan-kun, you hear me! β
"Oh, that's great, with Mr. Xiqia's arrangement, I think it's easy for me to open up the situation at the top of the Northeast Army. Commander Shigeru Honjo, Mr. Kenji Dohihara, in order to ensure the success of my plan in Mukden, I need the support of our Japanese Imperial Empire's lurking personnel in Mukden and in the Northeast Army, so that I can open up the situation smoothly and facilitate my movements, do you think it is okay? β
"Of course that's no problem, what do you think about Tohihara Kenjun?"
"Well, Kihan-kun thinks about it very thoroughly. We will fully support you! β
Mu Han himself did not expect that the plan to infiltrate the Northeast Army in Fengtian could be realized after a lot of twists and turns, and it was realized in this way. In particular, after completely grasping the situation of the Japanese latent forces in Mukden, especially among the high-ranking officers of the Northeast Army, his layout was undoubtedly more perfect.
After the "Huanggutun" incident, Zhang Shaoshuai knew that the Japanese were the enemies of killing his father, and sometimes he wanted to be angry at the crown and send troops to take revenge, but after seeing the strong military strength of the Japanese Kwantung Army, he had to swallow his anger. Moreover, other forces in China have long been eyeing the treasure land of resources in the Northeast, and Zhang Shaoshuai does not want to be stabbed in the back again because he started a war with Japan, and the gains outweigh the losses. However, in the upper echelons of the Northeast Army, Zhang Shaoshuai began to consciously reject the Japanese forces. Therefore, as a graduate of the Berlin Military Academy in Germany, Mu Han successfully entered the Fengtian Northeast Military Defense Department with the recommendation and help of Xiqia.
Mu Han couldn't help but laugh in his heart: The identity that Kenji Dohihara gave him was originally a real existence, and his name was Mu Han. In order not to make any mistakes, Mu Han still called the German side to embellish his identity, so that no one could find any flaws except the German side, including the Japanese, let alone the Feng side. A month after entering Mukden, Mu Han gained a firm foothold in Mukden with his extremely outstanding military qualities and generous entertainment.
After getting off work in the evening, Mu Han and two colleagues from the Defense Department came to Fengtian Defeng Building to drink again.
"Staff Officer Mu, I'm really sorry, I let you break the bank again today!"
"Hehe, what are you talking about, my brother has just arrived, Brother Xue Shan and Brother Cai Peng take good care of me, just a glass of thin wine, the two brothers can come to give me face! You must not get drunk tonight! β
"Okay, Brother Mu Han is refreshing, let's have a good drink today."
"Xiao Er, today we are eating hot pot, it's a cold day, it's hot! Hurry up! β
Soon, the copper hot pot was steaming up, and Mu Han and the three of them began to drink.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's good, let's reward two dollars! Okay, let's get two bucks! A slightly immature voice came, "Go and go, those who ask for food, those who have hands and feet to sell some strength, can also mix a full meal, how can they eat white food all day long." Roll on. β
"If you don't give it, you won't give it, what is fierce, be careful to choke to death."
"Yo he! You stinky begging for food, don't you owe it! Look at Lao Tzu, don't fix you, don't die! The little beggar hurriedly turned around and dodged the punches and kicks that came to the table, and jumped to the table of Mu Han and the others.
Mu Han frowned, this beggar begged in the major restaurants in Fengtian City almost every day. And every time the little beggar leaves, there will always be someone's money and goods missing.
"This master, you look good and reward two dollars, right? I'm waiting for the rice to go to the pot at home! You can reward two, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Taishang Laojun, Buddha Rulai, and Christ Jesus will bless you with a long life, promotion and wealth! β
"Hehe, it's called Huazi, and her mouth is quite sweet, but what Bodhisattva, Laojun, Buddha, Jesus, Lao Tzu doesn't believe in that, Lao Tzu only believes in this!" Xue Shan, who was already drunk, shook his body, and took out his gun with both hands that were not very neat.
"Ahh It turned out to be a military master, the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, you sit quickly, you sit quickly. I'm leaving, I'm leaving! The little beggar immediately stepped forward to support Xue Shan, took out something from Xue Shan's arms with lightning in his right hand, turned around and ran away.
"Brother Cai Peng, you take care of Brother Xue Shan. I'm in a hurry to get out. After speaking, Mu Han took out a few pieces of ocean and put them on the table, got up and walked out of the restaurant quickly.
The little beggar came out of the restaurant, came to the pharmacy and grabbed a few herbs, then came to the back door of a dilapidated courtyard and stopped, saw that there was no one around, turned around and walked in.
The low adobe houses are somewhat crumbling, and the air leaks in the walls are blocked by dense thick thatch, which can slightly maintain a little indoor temperature. But such a house simply cannot withstand the cold winter of the Northeast. From time to time, there was a violent coughing sound in the room, and it seemed that it was not a person
"Senior brother, if you hold on for a while, I bought the medicine, and I'm going to fry it!"
"Penglong, Pengwu, you go pick up some firewood, Xiang'er, you go fetch water!" Hurry up, everybody."
"Yes! Sister! β
Mu Han, who was hidden in the courtyard, couldn't help but sigh softly, and was about to turn around and leave, only to hear a low voice from the house: "Friend, it's cold and cold, why don't you go into the house and sit!" β
Mu Han was taken aback, as soon as he let out a sigh, the people in the room knew that this skill was really amazing.
"What people!" The little beggar flew out, and attacked Mu Han with both hands full of energy. Mu Han's body turned slightly, his left hand seemed to be closed to resolve the attack, and as soon as the internal force of his right palm was exhaled, a gang qi rolled up a cyclone, enveloping the little beggar in it. Seeing this, the little beggar did not hesitate, and his body retreated sharply. When he stood firmly, he found that the hat on his head was swept off by Mu Han's energy, and his long black hair was scattered.
"Ahh The little beggar let out a thin scream. Mu Han was also slightly stunned.
"Sister, are you okay?" The two teenagers who were collecting firewood and a little girl who was fetching water rushed over, "You dare to bully my sister, we fought with you!" The three figures immediately attacked Mu Han, but they didn't seem to have any strength.
"Rong'er, Penglong, Pengwu, Xiang'er, all step down! This friend should have no ill intentions! Please sit in the house and do it! β
Mu Han nodded to the four of them and walked into the dilapidated house. I saw a burly man lying on the kang, his right leg was fixed with a splint, his head was wrapped in bandages, his purple face was a little emaciated, his eyes were full of sadness, and his hands were lightly pressed on his chest that was undulating because of the violent coughing from time to time.
"Rong'er, quickly return the money and things you stole to others! How many times have I said you, roosters and dogs are not a long-term solution! Dahan said.
"This brother, I don't care about these things outside of my body. Besides, this little brother .......Oh, this girl uses money to cure diseases and save people." Think of it as a good fate for me! β
"Hey, let my brother laugh!"
"This brother, I see that your cultivation is quite profound, and you have faintly reached the peak of the day after tomorrow, but I don't know why you ended up in such a situation!"
"Ah, how did you see my senior brother's cultivation? Have you reached innocence? The girl dressed as a beggar exclaimed.
Mu Han nodded lightly, "This brother, I know a little about medicine, can you let me take care of it for you?" β
The purple-faced man nodded.
"Several, please help lift your senior brother up."
Mu Hanpan sat on the kang, his palms against the heart and Yu points on the back of the purple-faced man, and his internal force followed the meridians of the purple-faced man. In the tea room, a trace of white mist appeared above the purple-faced man's head, his face was a lot ruddy, and the wind and cold qi in his body gradually receded. The purple-faced man's eyes flashed with a gleam.
Mu Han slowly put away his palms: "Brother feel better?" β
The purple-faced big man didn't say anything, his eyes stared straight at Mu Han, and after a while, the big man suddenly said, "Is my brother's surname Mu?" Or is the brother's master's surname Mu? β
"Ahh Who are you? Mu Han was shocked when he heard this.
"Don't hide it from my brother, you just healed my exercises, I feel that your internal strength operation route is very similar to the mixed yuan recipe of the family teacher, I don't know if what I said is right? The reason why I guessed this is because my master said that in the world today, only my uncle Mu Tianhao can do this complete exercise. That's why I asked! β
"What?" Mu Han's eyes widened in shock, revealing an incredible expression.
Mu Han calmed down for a moment, thought for a while, and said slowly: "Yes, my surname is Mu, and my father Mu Tianhao." β
"Ahh Are you sure? The purple-faced man and the beggar girl shouted at the same time, their faces full of excitement.
Mu Han nodded, "I don't know what to call a few people?" β
"My name is Jiang Haiyun, my family teacher Yue Zhenting, and I am the chief disciple of the Supreme Elder of the Kunlun Sect. These are my master's children Yue Fengrong, Yue Penglong, Yue Pengwu, and Yue Fengxiang. When the family teacher was alive, the only person who had mentioned many times that he had learned the complete mixed yuan recipe was the little junior brother and my uncle Mu Tianhao. β
Mu Han was shocked beyond comprehension, and couldn't help but sigh that this world is so small, and it seems that everything has a certain number in the dark.
"Senior Brother Jiang, I don't know why you ended up in such a situation?" Mu Han began to change his words at this time.
"Senior Brother Mu, it's hard to say! In short, it's all a god-damned little devil! Jiang Haiyun looked sad and indignant, and began to tell the story.
