General Akberlir raised his head: "Well, I will." And about the jihua that we will encircle and suppress with the Qing army next year, I don't think it is feasible. ”

Lopatkin was obviously a little unhappy: "I personally formulated this jihua, do you think that 60,000 Qing troops plus our 10,000 Russian troops can't defeat the Lulu Mountain, which is garrisoned by less than 2,000 bandits?" I admit that I didn't listen to you in the battle of Gaojiatunzi this time and caused defeat, but I am determined to win the battle against Yulu Mountain. ”

The commander said with a confident smile, turned around and opened the wine box behind him: "Have a drink?" Brandy or vodka? ”

Akberil's eyes already revealed despair: "Yang Dagui is not Tang Yulin, they are different!" ”

"Even if he is King Kong, we 70,000 people beat him 2,000 people, I really can't think of any chance for him."

"His chance is that he will run! This time, the Qing army surrounded and suppressed him, he took his legs and left, ran out and ransacked our mines! If you enter Changbai Mountain with 70,000 people, you won't even be able to see his shadow! ”

Akberil was a little excited, but Lopatkin was not nervous at all: "Don't talk to me like this, my old friend, I am your boss after all." I've thought about what you said, and I'll approach him silently and leave him unconscious, like a cat scratching a mouse. ”

While the two were discussing, the bell hanging from the door rang suddenly, and Akberil swallowed the words that came to his lips. A young Russian lad came in from outside: "General, Miss Domliksava wants to see you outside the door, she is going to Peking tomorrow, and she has come to say goodbye to you." ”

Lopatkin smiled at Ackberil and then whispered in his ear, "Say no more, do whatever you want, but don't pull me up." I don't want those guys up there to hate me as much as they hate you. You were a general when I was an officer, and now that I'm a commander, you're still a general, and I think you should go back and review it. Akberlil, your outstanding military and diplomatic talents weishenme do not use a little into politics? Maybe now we're going to have to change positions. ”

"Because the enemy needs to be deceived, and our own must be united!" ”

Lopatkin smiled: "I think my own people need to be deceived more, okay, let's stop arguing, now another beautiful girl is waiting for me, can you avoid it first?" ”

The commander opened the door as he spoke, and Akberil strode out in a huff, just in time to meet Domliksava, who seemed to want to say something to him, but Akberil walked quickly.

"Mr. Commander, I have come to bid you farewell, thank you for taking care of me during this time, I think I should accept your arrangement to go to Beijing."

The commander sat on the chair and looked like a kind old man: "That's right, kid, that place in Beijing is good, how have you learned Chinese these days?" ”

"It's not too good, but I can understand the simple conversation."

"Let's learn slowly in Beijing, where it is the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, a very prosperous place, hundreds of years ago, the whole shijie was under her feet, but now she has become a place where all countries can step on it. If you go, you will know that the Qing Dynasty people are actually very good bullies, and I hope you can forget the unpleasantness here. ”

Domliksava smiled, her smile no longer innocent, and she brought some hypocritical entertainment into it. Things here have caused her a lot of damage, both physically and psychologically. She also wanted to forget all this, and a different environment might make the pain haoba happier. …,

But Domliksava didn't know that the matter between her and the two poles was not over, and she was destined to suffer more. The greatest sorrow in life is not that you can't stay with the person you love, but that you always meet inadvertently with someone you hate!

Yang Xiaolin had already returned to Yulu Mountain, and the training of the bandits would begin immediately. Judging from the situation on the first day, the Japanese are still very serious about teaching. What Yang Xiaolin is most afraid of is that they fool themselves.

He knew that his troops were not far from a real army, and it was vital that they had a fighting spirit. Now they have to learn combat skills, and when these two are combined, they are an army. Of course, whether it is an iron army or a fish belly army depends on whether they can break through the enemy's artillery fire.

And the bandits are now a team dominated by laborers, and these people can also endure hardships, and they are not lazy at all in learning. This made Yang Xiaolin very relieved and full of confidence in the future. The brothers did what they had to do, and it was up to them to take them to the future they had drawn for them.

Yang Xiaolin turned his head and asked Kong Landing and Jin Dadao in the back: "How is the situation of the grain distribution this time?" Do the common people still resist us? ”

Jin Dadao smiled: "It's much better this time, it's just the right time for our grain pie." The snow is heavy on the mountain, and many families can't open the pot, and there is basically no situation last time when we deliver food. Oh yes, forget about the matter of Ertou Mountain, Biaozi and they will send food again, the people of Ertou Mountain have already apologized, and they are very polite, this time we will be treated as Buddhas. ”

Yang Xiaolin looked at him: "Isn't there a sense of accomplishment?" ”

Jin Dadao nodded: "Well, you know what they say we are?" Say that we are thieves who kill the rich and help the poor, haha! ”

Jin Dadao was very happy, to know what the word thief means, he may be a robber's lifelong goal! But Yang Xiaolin really couldn't be happy, a thief is also a robber, it turns out that these ordinary people still regard themselves as robbers, which is not good.

Yang Xiaolin took out a cigarette from his pocket: "It seems that we haven't done enough, let's make the people in this area believe that we can make their lives better here." ”

Kong Landing was a little embarrassed: "Total, this grain has been given to them, and the little we deduct is only enough to eat until the beginning of spring, and we can't give it anymore." ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled: "It is better to teach people with money than to teach people skills." No matter how much food is given to them, it is useless, the people's hearts cannot be bought, and they must be shown that there is a way to live if they follow us. ”

Jin Dadao was a little ignorant: "What do you mean?" ”

Still that means, Yang Xiaolin is going to establish his own base. Getting the common people to support him does not mean that every time he grabs something, he can give some to the common people, the Red Army was so popular back then, and the most important point was that they made others believe that it was bright to follow them.

So he had to build his own system, from the military program to the economy. In order to make the people feel reliable! This costs money, Yang Xiaolin patted Jin Dadao on the shoulder: "It means, we are going to do a bigger deal!" ”

"What kind of deal?"

"What else can we bandits do? Either rob or kidnap tickets, it's not easy to rob this winter, I want to tie up a few people and come back. ”

Jin Dadao had done the kidnapping of tickets before, and when it came to this rich man, he reported more than a dozen people in one breath: "Well, I think it's okay to tie up Zhao Zhanyuan, that guy is rich himself, and now he is with Zhang Zuolin, and he is even more fat, get him to Yulu Mountain, let Zhang Zuolin take the money to ransom people, and also let us breathe a bad breath!" There is also Master Liu in Fengtian City, who is also a fat pig, and it is not a problem to slaughter tens of thousands of taels of silver...... "...,

He said endlessly, but Yang Xiaolin was not interested in these people: "Okay, Brother Jin, those you said are Chinese, I am Yang Da ghost, if I kidnap the ticket, I will definitely tie up foreigners!" I want to take a few brothers to Beijing, there are the most foreigners in the eastern suburbs, and they are all foreigners with status, tie a few of them, and don't worry about no one to ransom them. ”

Jin Dadao and Kong Landing were taken aback and went to Beijing to tie up foreigners? Even though Jin Dadao has done the business of kidnapping tickets many times, this idea has never been there!

Yang Xiaolin said: "You calculate, if we kill a Russian soldier, the court will pay two thousand taels, if we tie up a few foreign envoys or something, I estimate that one person can collect at least tens of thousands of taels!" If one of the ministers happens to be caught by us, haha, then make a fortune! ”

After Jin Dadao got rid of the shock, he was obviously very interested in Yang Xiaolin's idea: "Mr. General, I'll go with you, I'm good at doing this!" ”

Yang Xiaolin said: "No, you have to stay and watch my family, I may come back after the Spring Festival, you must watch your brothers train well during this time!" ”

Jin Dadao is very lost, the kidnapping of foreigners at the feet of the Son of Heaven, no matter whether the thing is successful or not, this is famous all over the world! This kind of famous thing, Yang Xiaolin didn't bring him, of course, he was dissatisfied.

Yang Xiaolin patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Jin, there really needs to be a housekeeper in this house, you said that the two of us are gone, Gu Tianming and Staff Officer Kong can't stop these people at all, you are at home, I can rest assured when I go out." ”

The face of the golden dagger with a high hat cap softened a lot: "Okay, when are you going to leave?" ”

Yang Xiaolin thought for a moment: "Immediately, after I leave, you will immediately go to Fengtian City to see how Xianhe is." ”

Yang Xiaolin wanted to bring Liu Xianhe back, this time the anti-encirclement and suppression had ended, Yulu Mountain was still there, he was still alive, and he had made a slight gain. Although it is not a victory, there is no defeat, after all, there are months of rest.

I hope that Hu Langzhong can delay Liu Xianhe's life for a period of time and take him back to Yulu Mountain to see if he can find a Japanese doctor to cure him.

Jin Dadao nodded: "Don't worry, this matter is left to me, this time it is very dangerous for you to go, where is the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are all kinds of characters." And it's not as good as Liaoxi, we are not familiar with it, so we must be careful. ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled: "Got it, pick a few brothers with Guannai accents for me, thirty people, no matter how many are not good." ”

Kong Landing immediately said: "Mr. Jin, the people under Brother Jin are more familiar with this business, and they are all old brothers, so don't worry, I think I can bring a few with me." ”

Yang Xiaolin felt that what he said was very reasonable, and nodded: "Then pick a few for me." ”

Jin Dadao thought for a while, the most suitable for his subordinates is Biaozi, but Biaozi is now recovering from the wound, I'm afraid one person can't do it, and he has to find a guy who dares to do it, he rolled his eyes: "I'll go and call Biaozi and Erpole two people!" ”

Yang Xiaolin said to go, the second pole did not have the slightest preparation, he still wanted to take the time to go to the back mountain to take out the little money he hid, and then go to the Russian girl to live a happy life of male farmer and female weaver together.

Hearing that Yang Xiaolin was going to take him to Beijing, he was a hundred unwilling, but Jin Dadao asked him to say a reason, but he couldn't say it, Zuihou could only follow Yang Xiaolin on the road with his infinite attachment to Domliksava.

They had traveled to Peking by land, and unbeknownst to the two poles, had now embarked on the steamer from Tianjin in front of them, and the two of them were destined for the same thing—Beijing, the eastern suburbs of Minxiang.
