When the military and police suppressed the patriotic movement, more than 1,300 merchant group guards had assembled on the outskirts of Guangzhou, and Cui Wu, Wang Maocai, and Fourteen Tsai formed a temporary command structure, and at this moment, they were waiting for the instructions from the merchant group.

Because of the killing of the Japanese ronin by the merchant army, the merchant group held an emergency executive meeting, and Huang Ke was also called to the meeting to attend the meeting.

During this period of time, the movement has greatly affected the shops and business of the merchant group, and a cadre of directors of the merchant group complained to Chen Lianbo, in the morning, the news that Yang Yibing led the gendarmerie to kill the Japanese has spread, and now the Japanese consulate has sent a telegram to the merchant group, asking about this matter.

Chen Lianbo listened to the complaints of these people while stirring the coffee in the cup with a spoon, and after listening for a while, he said quietly: "Don't say it again, I've seen it all this time." The Japanese accuse us, but they have no evidence. Now we're going to make a show of supporting them. ”

As soon as Chen Lianbo's words came out, everyone looked at him in surprise, Huang Ke stared at him deadly, he knew that this person had been a traitor many times in history.

"I mean, we can get our protectors out, and the merchants won't tolerate the students and workers who are making trouble! Isn't that a way to protect our interests and an attitude to the Japanese? ”

When he said that, the last sentence obviously aggravated his tone, and Huang Ke couldn't help but be stunned when he heard it, he would never be lenient with them, didn't this mean that the merchant army would be dispatched to suppress the movement?

Chen Lianbo continued: "The British consulate also asked me to send troops to protect their mission schools in China from the onslaught of the Japanese ronin. From this point on, we should also mobilize the merchant group guards. ”

After Chen Lianbo finished speaking, Huang Ke was making plans in his heart.

These have long been expected by Huang Ke, a person who has been able to betray his motherland countless times in history, would he care about the lives of some students?

Chen Lianbo said that the directors of the business group were noisy below, and the directors of several companies that mainly traded Japanese goods for import and export clapped their hands.

Sincere Company is a Japanese goods distribution center company, the director of the company is a middle-aged man with a mustache, after listening to Chen Lianbo's speech, he put the cigar in his mouth and clapped his hands and said: "Okay! President Chen said well, as long as it harms the interests of the business group, we will kill it! ”

As soon as the mustache finished speaking, Daxin, Zhenguang and some other representatives of Japanese companies also echoed, "I want to give these people a little color" "Just send out the guards and kill them all directly!" "No, no, no, kill a few others and don't dare to move" "Haha......"

Several directors who were keen on solving the problem by force were discussing enthusiastically, but Zhao Tinghui was a little dissatisfied when he listened to it, although he was also a businessman, and his shop had also suffered some damage in this movement, but he was unwilling to suppress the movement in his heart, after all, the students' starting point was always for the country.

On the sidelines of the meeting, he tentatively asked, "Guys, isn't this a bit too much?" Although the students have some mistakes, but after all, they are also for the country, not to mention that now that the military and police have been dispatched, it is estimated that the movement will disappear in a few days, should we ......?"

"Nonsense!" Before Zhao Tinghui finished speaking, the director of Daxin Company angrily reprimanded: "It's not your company that is lost, of course you won't care." It is the interests of the merchant group that suffers, if the merchant group protector is not transferred out at this time, then what is the purpose of raising this group of merchant group protectors? ”

As soon as the people of Daxin Company finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to Huang Ke next to him, Huang Ke stood up with a slight smile, he walked to the director of Daxin Company, and then took off the big-brimmed hat on his head and put it on his head.

"I think it's useless to raise us, you can do it yourself, although I support foreign trade, but at this time I still have a lot of trade with Japan, I am a traitor! The Japanese ronin are doing something wrong on our streets, and instead of protecting our own students, we protect the citizens of the United States and Britain? Ridiculous! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned, although the businessmen did not have the kind of distinction between the upper and lower levels of officialdom, but the concept of hierarchy still existed, Huang Ke was just an instructor hired by the business group, and he was asked to attend the meeting because this time was related to the transfer of the merchant group's escorts.

To put it bluntly, let him come, he didn't even have a place to speak, but he actually refuted it?

The director of Daxin Company threw off the hat on his head: "Idiot! What kind of thing are you? ”

When the director wanted to scold other unpleasant words, Huang Ke grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up alive.

"Huang Ke, what are you doing? I declare, you are now fired! Chen Lian Bo was incoherent, he didn't expect Huang Ke to dare to make such a move to them.

"If you fire, you will be fired, and I won't do it anymore!" After speaking, Huang Ke picked up the big-brimmed hat and walked straight out, leaving a group of stunned eyes.

After leaving the conference room, Huang Ke found a group of fast horses and rode towards the outskirts of the city. Things have developed beyond what he had previously thought, and it seems that he should break with Chen Lianbo now, but the people at hand have not yet been connected, and the merchant army has not even formed the cavalry he dreamed of.

But what can he do? If he does not break with them, he will turn his guns on the students and workers who have a pure heart, and he cannot become a sinner of history.

However, his biggest asset now is still the merchant group protector. Since he had fallen out with several bosses of the merchant group too early, he had to quickly hold the merchant group protector in his hands.

After returning to Xiguan's residence, Huang Ke didn't have time to change into a new outfit before he took out the jujube red horse.

Before leaving, Huang Ke also instructed Zhao Xiaowan to let her go back to her parents' house immediately and wait for his brother, saying that once his brother returned, he would hand him a letter of his own.

Zhao Xiaowan was about to ask something, but Huang Ke had already stepped on the horse and ran more than ten meters.

Along the way, in addition to hurrying, Huang Ke kept hovering on horseback. At present, the people of the merchant group do not know his plan and will not be too wary of him, but in a few hours, they will find a new instructor to replace him, and before this time difference comes, he must rush to the garrison of the merchant army and immediately mobilize this tiger and wolf army that he has trained.

What else? Huang Ke was spinning rapidly in his mind, what other aspects of his emotions should he stabilize? With his current strength, it must be a dead end to fight against the junta, and at this time, the revolutionary army has not yet begun to attack Guangzhou, and it seems that it can only stabilize the junta.

After thinking quickly, Huang Ke raised a whip at the horse's butt behind him, and the jujube red horse under his crotch ran faster again.

The horse's hooves were brisk, and by the time he arrived at the camp of the merchant army, it was already sunset.

In an open space on the outskirts of Guangzhou, more than 1,000 merchant guards were stationed here, and tents of all sizes were arranged in a circle.

After several months of training, the merchant group guards already had a strong sense of discipline, and when the officers and soldiers were camping, they also arranged for some sentries to post and set up a cordon, and on the commanding heights of the distant hills, Wang Maocai also arranged a few lurking posts.

After Huang Ke drove his horse there, the outpost was the first to spot him. As soon as Huang Ke arrived near the cordon, the lurking sentry sent an open fire signal to the sentries behind, and several sentries pounced on him and stopped him.

After seeing that it was Huang Ke, a few soldiers let go.

Fourteen Tsai was the first to see him, and after reprimanding a few sentries, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Huang Ke's reins.

"You're doing a good job, and the military is to be so vigilant. Alright, go stand guard. After dismounting, Huang Ke said to Fourteen Tsai: "Immediately gather all the battalion officers and run to the tent to hold an emergency meeting. ”

As soon as the lights came on, Huang Ke sat in the tent to prepare for his military meeting, and the meeting was still held by those henchmen. After a few people walked in with a smile, they saw Huang Ke with a cold face.

After they all sat down, Huang Ke glanced at the people around him and said, "Chen Lianbo of the merchant group wants to order us to suppress the student and labor movement, but Lao Tzu vetoed it!" ”

"How can this work?" "I don't think I can do anything about student dolls." …… As soon as these words came out, several people present began to talk about it.

"Say no more, now I announce the following orders." As soon as Huang Ke finished speaking, everyone stopped talking and sat straight there looking at him.

"The last time I was looking for the new army, is there still a list of company commanders brought by the merchant group?"

"It's still there, I've been sending people to keep an eye on them." Cui Wu replied.

"That's good, you observe during this time to see who is not available, let him take off his military uniform and leave, go and do it now, and notify the troops to assemble as soon as they are done."

Cui Wu leaned on his heels when he heard this, and the cowhide riding boots made a crisp sound: "Yes!" ”

"Do you have all the weapons and ammunition?" Huang Ke then asked.

Wang Maocai, who was in charge of the charge, replied: "All of them have been brought, but according to your orders, they have been distributed to the gendarmerie who patrol the city every day and some of the officers and soldiers who are on guard. ”

"Okay, now distribute all the weapons, and each person has a base number of ammunition. After the distribution was completed, the gendarmerie team, led by Yang Yibing, immediately arrested Chen Lianbo and others. ”

As soon as Huang Ke finished speaking, several people couldn't help but be stunned.

"After the other troops enter the city, they will carry out armed patrols in the urban area of Guangzhou according to the company platoon, and if they encounter Japanese ronin, they can be killed directly!" Huang Ke said firmly at the end.

Everyone couldn't help but be silent, and then they all shouted excitedly.

The rational Wang Maocai was not so excited at this time, he stepped forward and persuaded him: "Sir, do we need to think about such a big action again?" Chen Lianbo's influence is just in the business group, and the military and political circles in Guangzhou are very large, and he shot at the Japanese ronin? In case of improper disposal......"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Ke interrupted him: "What are you afraid of?" The junta will not be able to shake for long, and after arresting this traitor, the merchant group will grow. What is a junta? Annoyed Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu occupied it with the military junta! And the Japanese devils, Lao Tzu's mission here is to clean them up, needless to say, carry out the order! ”

"Yes!" After Huang Ke scolded, several people walked out quickly.

In the middle of the action, Huang Ke sent a telegram to Mr. Sun, who was still in Shanghai, in the name of the merchant group, saying that they had supported the revolution and were ready to welcome the arrival of the revolutionary army.

After receiving the secret telegram, Mr. Sun's staff hurriedly sent someone to contact Huang Ke, and at the same time, the revolutionary party also sent a telegram to Chen Jiongming, asking him to send someone to contact Huang Ke immediately.

At the same time, Huang Ke sent a telegram to the whole country in the name of the merchant army, announcing that he would severely crack down on all Japanese ronins who violated the law and discipline in the urban area of Guangzhou, and sent armed soldiers of the merchant group to patrol the streets to stabilize the order of the streets.

As soon as such a telegram came out, the whole country was excited, and East Asia began to be shocked!
