"Gang surname?" Wu Shigong is a little strange. Do foreigners have such surnames? Even among Chinese, this surname is rarely heard.

Seeing Wu Shigong a little strange, Gonzalez explained: "The full name of the contemptible person is Juan? Gonzalez. In fact, according to the rules of our hometown, my surname should be Gonzalez. ”

At this moment, Wu Shigong understood. It turned out to be called Gonzalez! It's like a person's name! If Gonzalez knew what Wu Shigong really thought in his heart, he would definitely be angry to death.

But at this time, Wu Shigong's bad taste came up again. Why should you accommodate those foreigners, and you can't let them have a nice Chinese name? In modern times, Wu Shigong was a little unaccustomed to seeing those white-collar workers proudly saying their English names. The most annoying thing is that there is an artist on the Spring Festival Gala, and his English name is "Little Shenyang".

So Wu Shigong immediately said with a decisive word: "Your surname is Gang." Mr. Oka, where are you from? ”

"General, we are Franc Mechanic officers." Gonzalez said as he bowed, and after the kowtow just now, he didn't dare to be a little sloppy about the number of courtesies.

"Franc man? So how did you end up in Dengzhou City? Wu Shigong didn't know about Sun Yuanhua's employment of Western officers, so he raised this question.

"Honorable General, we have come at the invitation of Minister Sun Yuanhua to teach firearms to your army. More than a year ago, we were tragically confronted with a rebellion in your army. As soldiers with a sense of honor, we fought against the rebels with Minister Sun Yuanhua in Dengju Castle. We lost a total of twelve men in battle, including our commander Teixeira? Captain Correa included. After that, due to the defeat, we surrendered to the rebels. Until now it was rescued by the general you. Here, on behalf of my colleagues, I would like to thank the General once again for his generosity. ”

"You're all Franc soldiers, huh?" Wu Shigong was immediately overjoyed. "So you must be very proficient in the use of firearms?" Wu Shigong suddenly felt as if he had picked up a treasure. In his heart, the modern West's cannons, giant ships, and sharp firearms are too impressive.

"Dear General, we are here to teach the use of firearms." Speaking of this, Gonzalez's face couldn't help but show a proud expression.

"That would be great. Since this officer has saved you, then you will teach us all the knowledge of the Western army that you know. Wu Shigong said unceremoniously. It should be said that it was unceremoniously ordered. Wu Shigong wouldn't play this set of three times and thatched houses, so it was better to give orders directly like this. Anyway, these Franco-robot people didn't dare to resist. Now they are all in Wu Shigong's hands.

After hearing this, Gonzalez made eye contact with his main officers, and then Gonzalez gritted his teeth and said to Wu Shigong: "It's not that we don't appreciate it. Because we have been away from home for so long, we all want to go back sooner. But we are also grateful to you, General, for this rescue. So be it. Is it possible that we can only leave a month for the adults to train and guide? We'll have to go home after that. ”

Gonzalez's request was reasonable. So Wu Shigong also understands very well. Held by the rebels for so long. It also makes sense to go home early to reunite with your loved ones. However, Wu Shigong also wanted the Runing Battalion to learn a little more from these Franc soldiers, so he discussed with Gonzalez: "One month is too short, just three months." As soon as the three months are up, I'll put you back. ”

Gonzalez's faces suddenly showed joy. Although I can't return to my hometown immediately, I have hope. However, at this time, the profit-seeking nature of Westerners took over again. The leading Portuguese gestured to Gonzalez again. After Gonzalez received the look, he hesitated for a while, and then said to Wu Shigong as if he had made up his mind:

"Honorable General. At that time, Minister Sun Yuanhua said that he would pay each of us fifty taels of silver a month, but later due to the rebellion of your army, this commission was not paid. Moreover, we have been in detention for twelve months, so we have fifteen months of unpaid commissions now. And, the fallen Teixeira? The bereavement pensions of twelve officers, including Captain Correa, were to be paid separately. At that time, there was a contract with Sun Yuanhua, the minister of your country. Please report to the imperial court of your country and pay it as soon as possible. ”

After saying these words, Gonzalez looked at Wu Shigong with some humility, for fear that he would be angry. Gonzalez's offer must have been a lot of false statements, because at that time, Sun Yuanhua, except for the officers who hired Gonzalez, was at this price, and some other people were far less than this price. There were even a few technicians among these Portuguese, who came with the Western artillery purchased by Sun Yuanhua, and did not need to pay anything at all.

And now that these contracts have disappeared, Gonzalez wants to dare to fish in troubled waters, anyway, now Wu Shigong has a request for them, why not seize the opportunity to rip off at this time? However, in the end, the kowtow just now gave Gonzalez a big psychological shadow, so he also watched Wu Shigong's reaction carefully, for fear that Wu Shigong would be angry. Therefore, it can be said that making people kowtow sometimes has some special effects.

Wu Shigong's face did sink, at this stage, no matter who dared to hit Wu Shigong's idea, it was like stepping on Wu Shigong's tail. Not to mention aliens, even aliens.

But Wu Shigong was afraid that his disagreement would lead to the departure of those Francophone people. That's a big loss. But this matter cannot be reported to the court openly. According to Wu Shigong's understanding of the Ming Dynasty, with the bird's nature of Emperor Chongzhen and those ministers of the court, they are all a group of people who want to save face and force the goods of the Heavenly Empire. They will certainly accede to the demands of these Francos. But in this way, Wu Shigong will definitely not be able to keep these people.

Seeing Wu Shigong frowning, Yang Rusong also began to grow a little. He immediately shouted, "You people, after you surrender, you also want to take the silver." I didn't have to lose the face of our soldiers, so I was embarrassed to tell us adults. Suddenly, all the guards in the tent showed disdain.

But after these Portuguese were scolded by Yang Rusong, they were very unimpressed. This is also the cultural difference between the Eastern and Western military. Western soldiers feel that surrendering after being in a desperate situation is not a matter of losing the sense of honor of a soldier. If they hadn't been away from home, the Portuguese might have turned against each other.

But after all, Gonzalez's psychological pressure was heavy, and when he saw that the atmosphere in the big tent was also heavy, he took a step back and took the initiative to say to Wu Shigong: "Of course, in order to thank the respected general for his rescue, we are not paid for the three months we have served the general to express our gratitude. ”

But Wu Shigong didn't even want to pay a tael of silver. But if the current situation continues, it will be an impasse. So Wu Shigong coughed, changed the topic and asked Gonzalez: "I always knew that you were the Franc Machine, but where is the Franc Machine?" ”

This is also what Wu Shigong did not ask in detail, if Wu Shigong knew that those Portuguese were hired by Sun Yuanhua from Macau, then he would definitely not ask this question.

But how can we pay lip service to the location of a country? After Gonzalez listened to Wu Shigong's question, he also showed a look of embarrassment.

Wu Shigong also understood at once, he smiled and stood up from behind the big case, walked around to Gonzalez, drew his katana, and drew a map of Europe that Wu Shigong remembered on the ground.

Thanks to modern cramming education, Wu Shigong's map of Europe is quite standard. After finishing the painting, Wu Shigong pointed to the big countries in modern Europe and asked, "Francophone country?" Isn't it the UK? Is it France? Is it Germany? Or Russia? ......" asked, and Wu Shigong asked Gonzalez with a katana pointing to the location of that country on the map.

However, no matter how accurate the map drawn by Wu Shigong is, it is not accurate when it is drawn on the ground. In addition, Gonzalez was standing facing Wu Shigong, and the map they were looking at was also reversed, and they heard Wu Shigong say new terms one after another, so under the nervousness, Gonzalez didn't know what Wu Shigong was doing pointing and painting on the ground.

And Wu Shigong's inquiry was also problematic, he said that Britain, France or something, there was no such country at that time. If Wu Shigong is called "England" or "France", Gonzalez may understand what Wu Shigong means by pronunciation.

Wu Shigong asked more and more impatiently. He thought to himself, "Why don't these Franco-Rang people even know about these big countries in Europe?" Are they all Europeans of the Sanlu brand? ”

Wu Shigong began to look at the appearance of Gonzalez. At first glance, the suspicion is even heavier, although these Franc machine people look like some Caucasians, but I didn't find that there are blonde hair and blue eyes among these Franc machine people?

Wu Shigong didn't know that the racial differences between southern and northern Europe in Europe were quite large. You must know that although southern Europeans are also Caucasians, they are relatively short, their skin is relatively dark, and the eye color of their eyes and hair is basically black or brown, and their appearance is relatively close to that of Chinese. This is just like purebred Cantonese and Shandong, although their appearance is very different, they are both Chinese.

But Wu Shigong doesn't know! The Westerners he had in his head were all models with their hair dangling in Lux commercials. Wu Shigong did not doubt that these people were indeed Westerners, and the skin color of Caucasian people must also be seen. But because these Caucasian people don't know about the big countries in Europe, Wu Shigong also doubts whether they are really Franc machine people.

Along with this suspicion, Wu Shigong also doubted whether these Westerners were Western soldiers. Sensing Wu Shigong's skeptical gaze, Gonzalez must have known that Wu Shigong's finger painting on the ground just now had an important question to answer. But Gonzalez really doesn't know what Wu Shigong is doing! So at this time, Gonzalez, he felt the cold sweat coming out of his back. (To be continued......)
