Chapter Twenty-Four: Hanada Shaosa's Gift

Isn't it just a little book, what's there to be surprised about.

Song Biao was not worried at all, and Zhao Tingzhu instructed: "You take some brothers to follow me, you don't need too many people, just a dozen or so people, let the brothers pay attention, it's not the time to kill with a knife for the time being!" ”

Zhao Tingzhu said: "Okay, I'll go and greet a dozen big men, Xiao Yue has always been a frustration, let's pick some big men." ”

Song Biao laughed.

Song Biao's size is relatively high in China in this era, his parents are northerners, and his nutrition is good, Zhao Tingzhu's height is not short, and the tallest of the four captains is Zhang Yahu, who is about the same size as the leopard, and these two are from Shandong.

Waiting for Zhao Tingzhu to pick out more than ten brothers, Song Biao took everyone to ride to the Nandian Inn, after all, Nandian is a large area of 3,000 hectares, from Niujiabao to the Nandian Inn has six miles of road, Liu Tongpao originally in order to control and protect the big granary of Nandian, the intention to build another Nandian village, and later because the cost is too high and abandoned, only built a three-story earthen building, there have been more than a dozen brothers stationed there for a long time.

Outside the door of the Nandian Inn, Song Biao saw six or seven small soldiers wearing blue military uniforms dozens of meters away.

Song Biao was like seeing a piece of on his dinner table, and there was nothing more disgusting than this.

Three thousand years of reversal of a hundred years, but it is regarded as the real gap between the two peoples, they are high, and the people of China do not deserve to own this land, China has revived, they actually say that they can't adapt, it's unacceptable, how can Nima's past thousands of years be adapted?

Song Biao was almost holding the kind of ** who was holding a machine gun and sweeping these people in front of him, he jumped off the horse, looked at the few people in front of him coldly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sneer.

Carrying a horsewhip, Song Biao took Zhao Tingzhu and other brothers into the inn.

In the store, an officer wearing an earthy yellow hat with a large pullover hat is sitting at the table in the center, with an Oriental saber tied around his waist, and three thin red bars on the brim prove that he has the rank of Shaozo, and the earthy yellow tweed military uniform with a pullover hat is actually still wearing a dark blue tweed military coat, which is different from the common blue-black military uniform, which belongs to the military M1900 military uniform, but due to financial problems, this military uniform has not been popularized, and only officers and non-commissioned officers will wear it.

During the Russo-Japanese War, the army was in a period of military uniform exchange, and it was after this period that the military uniforms of the Yue army began to develop towards earthy yellow in an all-round way, that is, the kind of earthy yellow tweed military uniforms that the Chinese were familiar with, as well as fart curtains and the like were developed during this period.

The officer in front of Song Biao is about forty years old, and becoming a young man at such an age basically proves that this person does not have much future, and he is definitely not from Lu University, let alone the saber group, and he is also not a "Chinese".

He wasn't tall...... The very low one, perhaps the most common type in the army, is emaciated, with a very thick black mustache, bent and upturned.

Beside this military officer stood a female interpreter of the army, but in this era, she could be regarded as a very attractive and beautiful woman, twenty-five or sixteen years old.

Just waiting for Song Biao to come in, Li Ergou, who was following him, couldn't wait to shout with a show off look: "This is our big boss, Niujiabao Biao Ye!" ”

The female translator whispered a few words to the young man, but Shao Zuo signaled that there was no need to translate any more, stood up and nodded to Song Biao and said: "Mr. Song Biao, in the Imperial Army Staff Department, Hanada Nakanosuke Shaozuo, is currently serving as the garrison officer of the Tonghua garrison in China, please give me more advice!" ”

He is fluent in Chinese.

After the end of the Russian War, until the end of 1906, there was still a small-scale exchange of fire between the two sides in the Northeast, and Hanada Nakanosuke, who had been promoted to Nakasa, organized a large group of Northeast bandits to exchange fire with the Russian Cossack cavalry, gave a large number of foreign guns and ammunition, and agreed to gather in a certain place on a certain day in a certain year and month, and sent thousands of foreign guns out, on the appointed day, He was alone on the mountain ridge facing a cavalry regiment of the Russian army, and at the same time, the bandits who had a life-and-death covenant with him were robbing the common people everywhere with foreign guns.

Song Biao invited the Shaozuo spy to sit down and said, "Huatian Shaozuo is willing to deign to come to Song's humble place, Song is deeply honored, please sit down." ”

Hanada Shaozo bowed his head again very politely, looking very respectful of Song Biao, and after sitting down, he made a gesture of beckoning, and a non-commissioned officer with the rank of lieutenant who followed him and the female translator presented a small cloth bag with a black silk texture, which was heavy as if it was filled with iron.

Waiting for the lieutenant to put the cloth pocket on the table, Hanada Shaozuo immediately opened it, revealing a full twelve gold bars, and at least ten taels of the kind of large gold bars, although Song Biao didn't care about this money, but after all, it was a golden gold bar, and it was really eye-catching in front of him.

Song Biao glanced at it and said, "It's useless, I don't know what Huatian Shaozuo wants to buy from my shabby place with this gold?" ”

Hanada Shaozuo pointed at Song Biao and himself, and said, "If I can, I very much want to buy the friendship between you and me, friendship cannot be measured by money, but these gold bars represent my personal and the heart of the Great Empire for you." ”

Song Biao replied indifferently: "Yes, friendship cannot be measured by money, Shao Zuo, you better take back these gold bars." ”

Hanada Shaozuo smiled: "Mr. Song, please rest assured, this is indeed just a little gift from me, you can accept it." I came this time for the grain business that I had negotiated with the lord of Liu Zhai, and since this village has been owned by you, presumably these grains should also be your final say. Before I formally negotiate with you on this matter, I must apologize to you for the previous military conflict that took place in Qiandongling, which was indeed a mistake on our part, and was also caused by the blind arrogance of the lower-ranking officers of the Empire who failed to carry out our orders, and we will compensate you for all the losses caused. ”

Song Biao thought for a while and said: "The loss is still very heavy, it is being calculated, if you use these gold bars to compensate, you will basically make up for it, at least our ammunition will be wasted a lot." ”

His words were too vicious, in the battle of Qiandongling, the army was considered to have suffered heavy losses, a squadron was wiped out, his loss was basically ammunition, how many bullets did four machine guns fire at the same time, there were only six boxes of ammunition, but only two boxes were left.

Song Biao definitely made a lot of money, everyone knew that four boxes of machine gun bullets plus more than 3,000 rounds of rifle ammunition were exchanged for 400 foreign guns, and the rifle bullets made more money.

Definitely very profitable.

But he can't be polite to Xiao Yueben's grandsons, right?

Hanada Shaozuo was speechless, and glanced at the twelve gold bars on the table a little reluctantly, originally intended to be used to buy Song Biao, but it turned out to be in vain.

His face turned cold, and he could only grit his teeth and say, "If that's the case, I'll rest assured." ”

Song Biao sneered in his heart, but said: "Actually, I really have no intention of having any kind of conflict with your army and Liu Zhaizhu, we are the horse gang, more than forty people, and we want to earn some freight to support our family." Now they have robbed a stockade, and the Russians have let us transport this batch of guns and ammunition to us, and this business is completely smashed, and the signboard is even more smashed, and there will be no face to do the trade of the horse gang in the future. ”

Hua Tian Shaozuo immediately asked: "Mr. Song, please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, with your strength of only forty people, and you are a small force without any formal military training, how did you completely annihilate a squadron of our army and a coalition of more than 200 people of Liu Zhai's master?" ”

Song Biao replied modestly: "There are a few Russian [***] officers in our team, and we happen to be carrying heavy machine guns, just in case, we were also trained by the Russians on the days when the mountains were closed by heavy snow. That's all, the real reason for defeating your army is not my manpower and weapons, but that the commander of your army is too blind to believe in his own strength, and he boldly pursued in the mountains, I believe that your army may have sent someone to survey the terrain of the entire Hunjiang region, but no matter how measurable you are, it is impossible for you to know better than our horse gang, and when you enter the mountains, where there are pits, where there are holes, we can find them with our eyes closed. Let's find a place to ambush you, and with the help of the Russian [***] officials, your commander doesn't even bring a mountain cannon, it's too big, he will leave if he suffers a loss, and he refuses to go, probably because he can't hang on his face, and blindly rushes to the death. ”

Hanada Shaozo nodded slightly, but said: "The Chinese have an old saying that if you don't fight, you don't know each other, although our army has lost some soldiers here, but it does not continue to embarrass Mr. Meaning, in line with the principle of making more friends and uniting Asians to fight against Russia, we very much hope that Mr. Song can join our camp." Kanto has always been a place where heroes gather, at present, many of Mr. Song's friends and colleagues have gathered in Tonghua to fight the Russians together, the Chinese treat Russia as a guest, but Russia is wantonly invading China, vainly trying to get the entire northeast, just as the so-called tolerable is unbearable, can a heroic person like Mr. be tolerated? ”

Song Biao looked very cold, and replied casually: "The affairs of the country are not something that Shao Zuo can say clearly, and I don't know, since it is not clear, it is better not to make judgments, so as not to delay my own financial path." Although I occupy this village at the moment, in the long run, I still want to continue to do the business of the caravan, transporting some groceries and grain and rice from the north and south to sell everywhere. This place in Niujiabao is where our horse gang settles, that's all, bandits are not a good thing, I haven't fallen to this point yet. ”

Hanada Shaozo was really stunned when he heard this.
