Chapter 368 The Tang Butcher Returns

@@@@

In the Japanese concession, in the mountain nest next to the Qingshui River in Piziwo, Kanto Prefecture, a large military camp was built at some point, and the occasional woodcutter passing by was also surprised, because the barracks were not stationed in Liaodong by the Japanese, but all the banner soldiers (). The slight difference is that these bannermen actually gave up the long braids that had been tied for thousands of years, and all of them had neat short hair with full ears, but careful people can still find a pig's tail buried in the short hair behind their heads.

Since the establishment of this barracks, Japan specially sent a brigade to cordon off the surroundings, and more than 2,000 flag soldiers were locked up in this mountain nest, naturally they could not do anything good, and even the smell of smoke wafted in the air, and there were even many prostitutes in the town of Piziwo, a few miles away, and even the Japanese soldiers often frequented them.

Today, the eight flags fluttering in the camp, more than 2,000 recruited flag men are undergoing positive training, many of them are veterans of the former Janissaries of the first town of Beiyang who have lost their livelihoods, and seven or eight Japanese officers are shouting back and forth, and the whips in their hands are crackling, but these flag soldiers are still walking crookedly and twisting into a line.

"***, isn't that the brothers walking as dogs? Lao Tzu has never suffered such hardships in the Praetorian Guard. ”

"That is, when will it be the turn of these Japanese to train us? Zaixun and Zaitao will not do this to us. ”

"It's better to do this every day than to simply go up and work hard, it's a big deal, the birds are dead, what's there to toss around, it's better to go to the village to do those a few more times, grandpa is worth the price even if he dies."

"Don't dream, it's your turn to pick your crotch? Those Japanese soldiers had already taken over the seats. ”

"If you have it, you won't say a word. The world is different, there is a subsidy of 10 taels of silver per month here, and the mother-in-law is now relying on this to get into the pot, I knew that it was good for Lao Tzu to learn the craft while he was young a few years ago. In the middle of the queue, more than a dozen former Beiyang First Town Praetorian Guard banner soldiers complained bitterly, in the past, they wanted to do it, even Yuan Shikai turned a blind eye, which is like now being tired like a dog every day, if it weren't for the monthly salary of 10 taels of silver per month, who would want to suffer.

The Japanese officer probably heard a few people muttering in violation of the rules, and the horsewhip flew over with a brush, only to hear a snap, and a blood mark appeared on the hand of one of the flag soldiers.

Don't look at these flag soldiers, they are usually all bullish and coaxing, but they don't dare to make a mistake in the face of the Japanese officers who come to the real character, so they have to endure their anger and continue to practice, but this whip really makes the pace a lot neater.

"Huh."

When the flag soldiers were walking hard under the supervision of the Japanese officers, a group of gold-belted officials came outside the camp gate, led by Prince Shanqi of Su who fled to Dalian for refuge, in addition to him, there were several old and young widows of Tie Liang and Zaitao, when they were wrapped in thick cotton robes, several Japanese ronins next to them were still wearing kimonos, and their feet did not seem to feel cold at all. In the middle of the ronin, Kawashima Shonan, who had just returned from Japan to South Manchuria, was wrapped in a mink robe like Prince Su, but he looked more at the Japanese officers sent to train, and saw that they were strictly supervising and secretly applauding ().

"Not bad, not bad."

Seeing the soldiers' appearance "neat", Tie Liang was excited: "The sky is endless, I clear the house, look at these children, I think it will not be long before I return to the Guannei." ”

Tie Liang's "excitement" did not provoke much echo, but made Zaitao and others secretly despise this "scum" who left Nanjing and fled by himself, if he could be like Liangbi to spill blood on the battlefield, why was the Qing dynasty first usurped by Yuan Shikai, and then ruined by the southern barbarians led by Yang Qiu, and now he has to take refuge under the guns of the Japanese, if he hadn't been leading troops when he was in Nanjing, I'm afraid no one would have taken a second look.

Zhang Renjun, who escaped with him, was more realistic, and said: "Don't be happy Lord Tie first, then Yang Qiu is not a general, after forcing Yuan Shikai to be bedridden, he sent tens of thousands of troops to Fengtian, Changchun and Rehe overnight, the speed of the soldiers is rare in the world, with me and so on, these horses are probably not enough for him to stuff his teeth, and he should recruit all the heroes of the Quartet of Baishan and Heishui as soon as possible, so as to have the strength to fight." ”

Speaking of recruiting horse bandits outside the gate to expand their strength, Zaitao's heart was angry for no reason, and he said angrily: "What kind of move? I don't know what kind of drug Yang Qiu gave to Zhang Yuting in Fengtian, in the past half a year, his horse team has been running around, recruiting those who can be recruited, and those who can't be recruited will be beaten without saying a word, not to mention this Fengtian Province, even Anton and Jilin Songjiang have not fallen. The one surnamed Yue is also a ruthless character, relying on the elite soldiers and artillery to seize the opportunity to attack to death. Originally, Hu Sanye from Liaobei had promised me to join the gang, but I don't know who leaked the news, the person surnamed Yue was stunned to send a whole step of the military camp to block them in Majiagang, Siping County, and pulled out the cannon to bombard them for a whole night, and more than 1,000 people ordered to be slaughtered without blinking! also deliberately released the news that whoever dares to come to Nanman will be killed! If it weren't for the cold weather recently, I'm afraid there wouldn't be a single person here. ”

Zhang Renjun lived in Shanghai after Xinhai, and heard that Yue Peng, who was known as Yang Qiu's number one thug, actually used such ruthless means to prevent Prince Su from recruiting green forest heroes, and slaughtered more than 1,000 people and horses of Hu Sanye, who is famous in the northeast, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and began to wonder if it was worth it to be involved in this matter, if it was known that Shanghai's family would be completely finished.

Everyone didn't pay attention to Zhang Renjun's strange appearance, and Kawashima Sulang snorted coldly after hearing about this: "Hmph! Is this the self-proclaimed democratic central government? I don't think it's as good as bandits ()! True democracy should give people the right to self-determination. Manmeng had too much to do with Japan, and he was afraid that Prince Su and others would lose confidence, so he encouraged him and said: "Don't worry, after I go back, I will immediately report to Major General Fukui Yataro, the governor of Kanto Prefecture, and ask him to immediately send troops to strengthen patrols in the area south of the Liao River and protect the heroes who are willing to come." ”

Prince Su knew that he was quite influential in Japan, especially in the Japanese Army, and there were many people who accepted his ideas, so he thanked him: "Thank you, Your Excellency, Kawashima, for your support to us, but recently we have recruited soldiers to buy weapons, and the money we have saved has been used up, and I don't know when it will be a head, you see." ”

Kawashima Speedy smiled and beckoned out of a ronin and said, "This is His Excellency Kanichi Otake of the Black Dragon Society, and he has already raised a million yen for the Prince's work. After the ronin handed over the one million check from the Zhengjin Bank to Prince Su, Kawashima continued: "After my lobbying, our War Department has promised to support the prince with 3,000 rifles and ammunition, and I have also sent someone to contact the Mongolian horse team and the Mongolian princes, as long as His Majesty the Emperor can return to Nanman as soon as possible, he can ascend to the heights and declare independence." ”

In fact, Zaitao and these people understand in their hearts that they are not justified in their name for independence after all, and the most prestigious Prince Su Shanqi is too old, although Zaitao used to be in a high position in the Military Advisory Bureau, but he does not have enough prestige, and this is even better than Yinchang, who refuges in Tianjin, as for Tieliang, it is not reassuring at all, so the most urgent thing for everyone during this time is how to take back the emperor in Beijing.

But it is not easy to take back the emperor, not to mention that the little emperor Puyi is only eight years old and has no ability to act, even if he sends a capable person, there is no guarantee of return, after all, it is no longer Beiyang that is stationed in Beijing now, but the central guard division sent by Yang Qiu to cut off the Yellow River and force Beiyang to surrender, even the Japanese say that this force is quite combative.

Kawashima Sulang also knew that it would be difficult to get Pu Yi back, but only by controlling Pu Yi could Man ** Li be justified, and he had already received the news that the Japanese War Department was plotting a big operation, so he increased his support for Man ** Li, and said anxiously: "Your Excellency the Prince may wish to use his brains on Duan Qirui." ”

"Duan Qirui?"

"Yes." Kawashima Sulang narrowed his eyes, like a cunning embarrassment: "We have received accurate information, Yang Qiu is convincing President Li Yuanhong and the National Assembly to prepare to change Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and Chongqing into municipalities directly under the central government, and the status of the provinces directly under the central government is equivalent to that of the provinces, and also prepare to let Shanxi Governor Yan Xishan be the mayor of Beijing, so that Duan Qirui's position as the Beijing town guard will definitely not be kept, do you think he will be satisfied from the bottom of his heart?" ”

Tie Liang probably saw that everyone didn't want to see him, and he was anxious to make meritorious contributions to regain popularity, and hurriedly said: "Let me do this matter, it just so happens that I have a few clothed minions and Duan Qirui's brother-in-law Wu Guangxin have some friendship, you can try to follow his path ()." Although Prince Su and the others didn't believe in Tie Liang very much, they couldn't find anyone else to do this for a while, so they had to nod and agree.

After deploying the matter after letting Tie Liang find a way to bring back Pu Yi, Kawashima looked at the soldiers who were training, and suddenly tilted his head: "Your Excellency, a sheep can't lead the tiger to fight, have you figured out who will lead the revenge?" ”

A few words hit Prince Su at once and their weakness, the banner people have not produced a few generals over the years, the only one in the Zongshe Party who has experience in leading troops is Zaitao, but Zaitao usually can't serve the public at all, and Yin Chang is reluctant to go out of the mountain, and the rest are a few bannermen who have escaped from the first town, where can they compare to the group of arrogant soldiers under Yang Qiu.

Seeing that a few people were slow to speak, Kawashima Sholang had already guessed that they could not find a suitable candidate, so Mao Sui recommended himself: "If Your Excellency the Prince believes me, I have a very suitable candidate." ”

Even a few children were entrusted to him, how could Prince Su not trust him, when he heard that there was a suitable candidate and thought that he was an officer brought from Japan, he was so happy that he hurriedly asked, "I don't know which one it is?" ”

"This man is not our Japanese officer, but he is better than many Japanese officers, and everyone should have heard of him." Kawashima Speedy smiled very proudly, clapped his hands again in the puzzled eyes of everyone, and a moment later a bald man in a Japanese military officer's uniform and holding a Japanese knife walked over, and before everyone could ask the man, he had already walked in front of Prince Su, his eyes were cold: "In Xia Tang Jiyao, I have seen the prince." ”

Tang Jiyao, who created the Guilin bloody case, Tang butcher?! Zhang Renjun's heart sank suddenly.
