Chapter 15: Into the City

Zhao Yun and his party were originally crowded, and in order not to get separated in the city, Zhao Yun deliberately gathered all the people together.

Of course, when he entered the city, he brought in everyone's guys, and the knights' swords of the cavalry were all sandwiched in the flat poles in the basket carrying fruits, and Zhao Yun himself hid a "Hanyang-made" in a bamboo tube and brought it in. In fact, he is just looking for psychological comfort, there are only a few bullets in total, plus 10 swords, if he makes trouble in the city, he will definitely be made dumplings.

However, today Zhao Yun is also the first time to see the regular army of the Republic of China era, with a big-brimmed hat with a Wang Ba lid on his head, a five-color republican emblem on it, a nondescript wide belt on his belly, a gray uniform, leggings on his calves, and a pair of sloppy soapcloth shoes on his bare feet. There are six or seven arranged at the gate of a city, all of them are dressed like this, this is Anhui, it should belong to Duan Qirui's territory, Duan Qirui is also a powerful faction in Beiyang, and it is called "Anhui Department", just listen to the name, Anhui is the old foundation of this faction.

It stands to reason that this is his old battalion, and since his army can form factions in Beiyang, it should still be very combative, how is this image? Look at their guns, some of them are "made in Hanyang", some seem to be birds, and they are estimated to be second-line troops of the local garrison, so I can't see anything, I don't know what the first-line army in Beiyang is like?

However, when he entered the city gate, Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, and both sides of the road were full of buildings from the Minqing Dynasty, which were in tatters, dirty water on the ground, and the roadside was full of sheds built by shops on both sides, encroaching on a large area of the road, a good main road, and becoming crowded.

This is the real Republic of China! What a little freshness of the Republic of China on TV! Nothing, just dirty mess. "Aren't these illegal constructions? Why doesn't anyone care? What about chengguan? ”

Zhao Yun suddenly remembered the role of the team in the future, but here, Zhao Yun still had to be careful, in case he overturned things on both sides of the road, he would have to pay for it.

Shao Lao Er and Cui Sangou were masked as soon as they entered the city, in case they met someone they knew here, they would be in trouble, although the probability was not high, but they still had to be careful! The two local snakes led the way in front, and they first sold the goods in a small alley, and then went to the salt shop to exchange some salt.

Seeing that half a basket of mountain goods could be exchanged for so much salt, Zhao Yun knew that the people in Cao Village were too dark, and they didn't even exchange half of what they had here. The next thing is some bits and pieces, to buy some daily necessities, here is the county is still quite complete, finally bought toothbrushes, soap, these things that were not valuable before are here with a word "expensive", but Zhao Yun is not studying chemistry, otherwise he will follow the example of his predecessors, make soap, make glass to make money.

Although these things are expensive, Zhao Yun has used them for more than 20 years, and he has long been used to them.

I went to the bathhouse again, took a barrel bath, and asked the two cavalrymen to go back and bring the rest of the goods, and the ones that were just sold were estimated to be not enough for Zhao Yun's expenses this time. Looking at the three buckets of water, he finally washed himself, Zhao Yun enjoyed the special service of this era, rubbing his back and the three knives of the Yangzhou master.

"Comfortable! In the future, if you occupy a city, you must have a bathhouse. "Nibbling on the apple, I looked at myself in the mirror, and it seemed that I was much stronger than before, and I stayed in the cave every day, and it did not turn black during the day and night, but it was still white and pure, and I wanted to buy a long coat of this era to put Sven, and I was told that it was only available in the tailor's shop.

"Hey! When will I get out of here? Zhao Yun feels that this place is still not as good as the original world, nothing is convenient, and no electricity at night is the biggest pain at present.

"Where's the restaurant?" With a wave of his hand, he summoned Shao Lao Er and Cui Sangou, who had been waiting outside.

"Restaurants in the same city!" "Juyuan Pavilion! It's a great place to go! ”

"Good! Go together, go together! Today I have a treat! ”

During the meal, Zhao Yun calculated the "cost of living" here, and also made some comparisons between this place and the future generations, and many times, Zhao Yun still subconsciously used his previous thinking to consider things. The cost of many things in later generations is basically negligible, but in this era, it is the bulk of the expenses.

For example, the indispensable firewood, rice, oil and salt, as long as you are not in the city and have your own land, you don't talk about firewood and rice, but this oil and salt is at the same level as the price of meat, and sugar is more expensive! As a person in the 21st century, it is difficult to imagine such a big difference, and you have to think carefully about whether you have enough money before buying something. As for the cloth or something, it is even more of a large expense, and I originally wanted to buy myself a young master's outfit, but now it seems that I have to pull another trip to pay for the clothes, and the contrast of this price is not much less than that of Armani in later generations.

Full of wine and food, Zhao Yun and the three of them ate a total of two tables of wine and food, and Zhao Yun also asked to pack a table, if it weren't for the fact that the weather was too hot, they would all want to move a seventeen or eighteen table back.

This small city is really quite complete, and during dinner, Zhao Yun also saw that there were newsboys selling newspapers on the street, and he also bought a copy of "Declaration".

On July 14, 1920, it was reported that Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou were at war, and the victory or defeat had not yet been decided, and the cabinet in Beijing was dissolved, and now Beiyang was still in power, and Zhang Zuolin went to Beijing. It's all messy news, Zhao Yun's history is average, and the representatives of the DPRK in history can still memorize it, but modern history is basically incomprehensible, so I am familiar with the confrontation with Japan, and I still understand it by watching anti-Japanese films every day.

Since I don't understand anything, I'm full of food and drink anyway, check out, and go home.

Suddenly, there was a rush of chickens and dogs on the street, and a group of Beiyang troops rode towards the center of the city, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Won't you know I'm coming, want to keep me here? ”

"Get out of town! Let's talk about it later! "Greeting Shao and Cui, who are still watching the excitement (the curiosity of the Chinese!) It has not changed), and he took his 10 men and immediately hurried to the city gate.

At the gate of the city, Zhao Yun and his party went out of the city smoothly.

As soon as he left the city, a person behind him had already arrived on horseback, "County magistrate, there is an order to close the city gate quickly, and no one will be allowed to go without a warrant from the county magistrate and the regiment commander!" ”

"Ahh Why? I'm still waiting to go into the city to do business? ”

"Boss, we walked for a long time, and we set off before dawn today, why don't you let you in?"

"Let me go out, I'm the eldest young master of the Qian family in the city, Lao Tzu wants to go out of the city!"

Hearing that the city gate was about to be closed, whether the city gate wanted to enter the city or go out of the city, the chickens and dogs immediately became a pot of porridge.

"Something must have happened, what could have happened? What happened in 1920? Zhao Yun was confused, constantly recalling his previous historical knowledge in high school textbooks, and he hated less when the book was used!

If only there was a Baidu.

"Forget it, don't look at it! Let's go back first, Shao Laoer, after you go back, draw me a map around the county. ”

"Okay, look at this time, it is estimated that which big handsome and which big handsome are fighting again!" Zhao Yun looked at Shao Lao Er suspiciously, the estimation of this "veteran oil" is very likely to be true, and looked back at the city gate, this was what it was like in the early years of the Republic of China!

"Hey, that's..." I saw that at the head of the city, four Beiyang soldiers were carrying a heavy black object, "Ma Qinke! Shao Lao Er also looked back and was startled. A machine-gun emplacement began to be set up at the head of the city, "Is there going to be a war here?" Don't close the road! ”

Seeing the layout of the county seat, Zhao Yun rushed back in a hurry, and thought: "It seems that I have to think of some other way, the normal operation is too slow!" ”

Zhao Yun originally wanted to go straight to Maoshan with cavalry, but now seeing the road conditions of this era, he no longer has much hope for this absurd idea in his heart.

Think about it or settle down first, cavalry was the king in the era of cold weapons, but in modern times, there are many ways to kill it in seconds.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when the sun was setting in the west, the group rushed to the front of Shifo Mountain again, ready to enter the mountain.

"Stop!" Zhao Yun suddenly ordered, and all the cavalry braked suddenly, and Shao and Cui were almost thrown out by the huge inertia.

"What's wrong?" Shao Lao Er asked.

"Look at the mountain beams." Zhao Yun gestured to a nearby hillside.

Since the camp was promoted to the second level, Zhao Yun has developed the "lookout technique", which can see objects 400 meters away, and can see within 1,000 meters vaguely, which is equivalent to carrying a sub-telescope with him.

When I left in the morning, there was no one on the mountain beam, and now there are about 10 people, hiding on the mountain beam! If they hadn't been hidden, and there were many trees on the mountain, Zhao Yun would have discovered them a long time ago.

After a little hesitation, he immediately sent 5 wind cavalry to make a detour from the flank and reach the rear of the mountain. Pai Shao and Cui walked under the mountain and lured each other out, they were locals, and it was estimated that there was not much danger.

The biggest difference between the wind cavalry and other cavalry is his speed, but once he runs up the mountain, he is hindered by woods and rocks, and he can't exert any power, so he can only fight like an infantry. Therefore, on the whole, the wind cavalry is one of the weaker cavalry, and it is estimated that if you fight with the opponent head-on, the loss will definitely not be small.

As soon as Shao and Cui walked to the bottom of the mountain, the people on the mountain all appeared.

It turned out that this was a team sent by Pan Datou to close the mountain, blocking the people who came out of the mountain. Seeing two people entering the mountain from the direction of the county seat, and there were no weapons, I thought they were ordinary people, and I wanted to make extra money, so I immediately got five people down to prepare for an investigation.

When I walked in, I saw that they were all acquaintances. "Yo, isn't this the third dog and the second master? Where have you been making your fortune lately? It was a white fat man who was coming down from the mountain, "Where's your gun?" What about the detainees? Sangou, how dare you come back, I'm not afraid that the master will discount your dog's legs. ”

When the fat man got closer, he found that this thing was generally tall whether he was standing, sitting, squatting, or pouting. The fat belly is like a small pot on it. It's really hard for him, he just rushed down the mountain in a puff of smoke, and from a distance it looked like a ball of meat rolling down the hillside.
