Chapter II: Illegal Armed Forces

*******

The scorching sun made people not feel the slightest excitement, and although the soldiers driving the car shouted vigorously and the horses whipped their hearts crackled, the wheels of the car still rolled forward unhurriedly.

Yang Qiu, who was carrying a gun and the same as everyone, changed into a short coat, and the slightly open placket made him look a little more heroic as a character in the rivers and lakes, but only he knew that this was "sunbathing" for the baby bump in his arms.

Ordinary baggage soldiers in the Hubei New Army, no money, no people, no territory, even if they were soldiers in their previous lives and lived in automobile factories, but even if you take the latest 29-axis linkage machine tool from Germany in the future, you can't make anything now.

Industry is not a word, even if there are piles of machines, you still need skilled workers and huge resources.

So, bastard in a hat, this is a pastime for me!

"Brother Yang, who is entertaining you? Hey, what kind of gun is this? Bingwen, who was in a car with Yang Qiu, turned his head and saw Yang Qiu playing with a short gun that he had never seen before, and his eyes lit up and he immediately leaned over.

"This is what my second uncle bought from the United States." Yang Qiu had an idea, and put the responsibility on the second uncle who was doing business in Shanghai, and said: "He was afraid that I would suffer a loss, so he specially bought these two short guns at a high price for my self-defense." ”

Bingwen didn't doubt it, many rich children like to buy a gun these days, although Yang Qiu's parents died, his family background was good in his early years, and he had a second uncle who did business in Shanghai, so buying a gun is not a big deal.

"Stop!"

When he was introducing the pistol to Bingwen, before Yang Qiu understood anything, he heard a loud shout from the front, and then the sound of pulling the bolt sounded all around, and the bearded Ma Kui even got behind the carriage.

Yang Qiu, who is 1.78 meters tall, is undoubtedly standing out in this era, and soon saw the situation in front clearly, only to see a few big men in black short coats suddenly popping out on both sides of the col in front of him, and these guys actually have weapons in their hands.

Mosina Dry!

After seeing the gun in the other party's hand clearly, Yang Qiu was taken aback ().

If it weren't for his liking of guns, and if it weren't for the fact that there was also this kind of old gun in the Xinhai Revolution Memorial Hall that he had visited before, he might not be able to tell what kind of rifle the other party was in!

The Mosinagan rifle is a rare commodity, the army in the Beiyang period was basically dominated by German and Japanese weapons, and a small number of French and Italian equipment flowed into the country, but Russian rifles were rare!

There is only one way for this kind of rifle, which is not fully equipped with the main Russian troops, to enter the country.

The victor of the Russo-Japanese War that just ended, Japan!

The Russo-Japanese War was the first time that Mosinagan was put into actual combat use in the Far East, and after the Japanese victory, many of them were captured, but due to the different systems, most of them were missing, but I did not expect some of them to flow into the country.

The intuition he had cultivated in the army in his previous life made his eyes squint suddenly, and a strong sense of danger emanated from those inconspicuous men in black with guns, and it was not easy to get weapons from the Japanese.

"Who's coming?"

"In Xia Xiao Anguo, I was ordered by the owner to escort a batch of mountain goods to Chengdu."

"Mountain goods? Open it up and take a look. The man in black held Mosin Nagan, and kept slipping into the carriage while saying his eyes, giving Yang Qiu a very strange feeling, it is not strange that there are checkpoints in Sichuan at this moment, but these people do not seem to be authentic.

"Well, it's not appropriate."

Seeing a man in black with a gun walking out, Xiao Anguo was also busy to negotiate, but before he could say a few words, the other party asked to inspect the carriage, which made him a little nervous, you must know that these guns are powder kegs now, and once they are exposed, it will be really bad.

"What's wrong!" The black-clothed man with a gun pointed at Yang Qiu and the others and said vigilantly: "Recently, Sichuan has not been peaceful, and our big boss has been ordered by the elders to strictly investigate this section of the road, and now we suspect that you are spies sent by the Qing court to seize the railway!" ”

"It's suffered, it's a robe brother who has something to do with the People's Party!" Ma Kui leaned over to Yang Qiu's side and muttered.

"Brother Pao? Elders! ”

Yang Qiu remembered the sentence "A cordial call to Brother Pao, the province knows many knights in Xichuan", the legend says that the elder brother and the Heaven and Earth Society are still implicated, in the late Qing Dynasty, these three or five groups, wearing fierce knives, rampant in the township of the robe brother in Sichuan has a great influence.

Ma Kui saw Yang Qiu twisting his eyebrows, and thought that he didn't know about the Elders' Association, so he introduced while on guard: "Brother Pao is also called the Elders' Association, they are very famous in Sichuan, Qin Zaigung, who is one of the family members, is said to have joined the Kuomintang over the years, looking at this posture, we can't get by." ”

"Brother Ma, there is one thing I don't understand, we are officers and soldiers, why do we still have to dodge and dodge, and directly reveal our identities, how dare they!" Yang Qiu pretended to be stunned and asked.

"How?" Ma Kui sneered: "Now that Sichuan is full of party members, Guangzhou and Shanghai are all here to intervene, plus these natives who are not afraid of the earth, it won't take half a day for the news that we brought guns to the Sichuan Governor's Mansion will spread throughout Sichuan." ”

"If it is passed on, it will be passed on, and I am very afraid." Don't look at Bingwen's natural baby face, but his temper is not small, and he immediately said angrily after listening to it.

"Huzi, Bingwen. You are still young, this place is not as good as its province, the Sichuan people have been fierce and complex since ancient times, and there are local people in Miaozang to support them, and now there are Kuomintang people stirring up trouble in it, even Lord Zhang and Lord Li do not dare to underestimate it, so they ordered us to travel lightly and secretly escort, if it is simple, then our brothers will suffer this crime. ”

"Revolutionary Party ......." Yang Qiu muttered softly, and saw that Xiao Anguo was still arguing with the other party, and asked, "Brother Ma, do you believe them?" ”

Ma Kui smiled, took out a cigarette from his pocket but didn't light it, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and then suddenly asked: "Huzi, you have been drinking foreign ink in Shanghai for seven or eight years, do you believe in them?" ”

Yang Qiu was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this Henan man with a scumbag face and a rough appearance to ask himself, then again, people like him who have gone abroad or attended a new school or foreign school for a few years over the years, and received new ideological education, the one who opened his mouth and closed his mouth was not a revolutionary ().

In the buzzwords of later generations, this is called fashion.

Can fashion save the country?

If Yang Qiu in the past would never shake this belief, but modern people who have just visited the Xinhai Revolution Memorial Hall and know the decades-long domestic chaos after Xinhai do not know the choice. In particular, in the face of the militants of the Brotherhood who are simply ruffians and gangsters, and who have made a vote in the name of the revolution, the fact that the party members will cooperate with them and are also equipped with guns bought from Japan speaks for itself.

Yang Qiu took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Brother Ma, have you heard a sentence?" ”

"What?"

"Illegal arming!" Yang Qiu crooked the corners of his mouth and spit out four words, Bingwen, who was on guard beside him, kept his ears pricked up, and grinned when he heard it.

"Illegal arming?" The snickering laughter made Ma Kui scratch his head, still wondering what this meant, Yang Qiu suddenly noticed something flashing in the low forest in front of him, and then the hairs on his body stood upside down.

"Grass mud horses, how can they have this thing!"

"Spread out and hide!"

In the flash of lightning, Yang Qiu first pushed with both hands, pushing Bingwen and Ma Kui to the side, and before the latter two could get up, he jumped into the carriage, kicked his legs suddenly, and pounced on Xiao Anguo like an eagle falcon after borrowing his strength.

"My lord, be careful!"
