Chapter 4: An Unquiet New Year (1)
In the fourth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there was a festive atmosphere in the "Jingyuan". The house is full of lights, whether it is the master or the subordinates, everyone is beaming. Before noon, all the traversers arrived along with the local beauties they had married. Not only Han Qingwen, Zhong Ziqi and Yang Xiaoyun came, but even Song Feiyang's outer chamber Guan Jinyu and Yang Xiaoyun's family members also included.
After dinner, everyone opened the "Spring Festival Gala" in the main hall and the left and right side halls of the courtyard in the "Jingyuan", and a group of people sang and danced, so it was not lively. At midnight, he took out the thousands of cannons that the weapons department and the chemical department had done in advance, and put them on the "ping pong" outside the "Jingyuan" for a while, which alarmed all the people around the "Jingyuan", and they ran out of the house to see what powerful "magic weapons" these former masters had made.
After the firecracker, everyone returned to the house to continue the show, play cards, and have a good drink, except for the two pregnant women, everyone else tossed until dawn before they fell asleep.
Everyone slept until the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, and after eating a meal that was indistinguishable whether it was lunch or dinner, they were thinking about what programs to play in the evening. However, because of the disagreement, there was no discussion of a result until it was dark, so Zuihou had to give up. Most people go to bed to catch up on sleep after a dinner that is almost a late-night snack.
At this time, in the room where Wang Kunjun lived, the lights were still bright. Since Zhang Xiaofei and Han Qingwen, the two pregnant women, went to bed early yesterday, they didn't feel tired now, and they were pulling Wang Kunjun and Lin Xiaoyu to play mahjong.
The four of them play modern mahjong, it is said that Wang Kunjun, Zhang Xiaofei and Lin Xiaoyu as traversers, should be more familiar with this kind of mahjong, but the actual situation is the only non-traverser Han Qingwen is the most proficient. After a few laps, the other three families lost a lot, and the copper coins in front of Han Qingwen were already piled up like a hill, which made Lin Xiaoyu complain, saying that Wang Kunjun's family of three had joined forces to cheat her of money.
However, her complaints had no effect, because the other three knew that she was just joking. She's also a team member at the level of department head (formerly the level of head of a functional group), and with her net worth, losing that amount of money is really nothing. Zhang Xiaofei even said that she would never stop if she didn't win all the money in Sister Lin's pocket today.
However, Zhang Xiaofei's bold words did not come true. Considering that she and Han Qingwen were both pregnant, the play was stopped at about eleven o'clock or twelve o'clock, and Wang Kunjun stopped. Although Zhang Xiaofei was still unsatisfied, for the sake of the child in her belly, she had to obey her husband's request, and after saying good night to Lin Xiaoyu, she obediently went into the inner bedroom and went to bed.
Wang Kunjun sent Lin Xiaoyu out of the door of the suite where he lived, and watched her enter another suite opposite the main hall before returning to the inner bedroom and continuing to experience the feeling of sleeping with his two wives. He had been longing for this kind of opportunity for a long time, but because his two wives were very shy, it was not until last night that the room was relatively tight. However, to his regret, since both wives are pregnant, he can at most hug left and right, and he can't really experience the infinite fun.
Because of playing cards for a long time, the nerves have been in a state of excitement, so the family of three did not fall asleep immediately, but lay there whispering. At the beginning, he said that he played cards very well tonight, and he would definitely pull Lin Xiaoyu to continue tomorrow. Later, as they talked, the topic slowly turned to the child who would be born in a few months, and Zhang Xiaofei and Han Qingwen began to discuss whether they were pregnant with a boy or a girl.
As a modern woman, Zhang Xiaofei originally didn't care about giving birth to a boy or a girl. However, since the last time Wang Kunjun told her that Han Qingwen would definitely be very eager to have a boy in order to consolidate her position in the Wang family, Zhang Xiaofei's mind also began to move. In her opinion, although in terms of status, her identity as a wife is quite stable, but if she can give birth to a boy for Wang Kunjun, it will be tantamount to giving herself double insurance.
Therefore, when discussing with Han Qingwen whether to have a boy or a girl, she said very clearly: "Of course I hope to have a boy." I have been married to an official for more than ten years, and when I was overseas, I never had a child for various reasons. Now that I'm back in Middle-earth, the situation is completely different, and I'll be able to give birth to children for officials in a down-to-earth manner. Moreover, I am different from my sister, sister, you are not yet twenty years old, this time you are not a boy, and there will be a chance to give birth in the future. But I'm thirty-five years old, and if I can't give birth to a boy for an official, I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity in the future. So, I really hope to have a boy for the officials. ”,
After listening to Zhang Xiaofei's heart, Han Qingwen took a long time before she spoke: "Sister, don't say that, it's not for nothing that you can still have a child in your forties, and my sister is in such good health, she will definitely not give birth to this child." ”
Zhang Xiaofei sighed and said, "I hope it's as my sister said." After a pause, she continued: "It's a pity that there is no B ultrasound in this place, otherwise our sisters wouldn't have to worry about this." ”
"What is 'Bichao'" Han Qingwen asked puzzled, "Could it be that with this 'Bichao', can we see whether we are pregnant with a boy or a girl?" ”
Hearing Han Qingwen ask, Zhang Xiaofei realized that she had accidentally said something for a while, so she had to explain: "Oh, this, this ......, this B-ultrasound is a machine invented by the locals when we were overseas." Just put the machine on your stomach and you can see if you are pregnant with a man or a woman. ”
Although Han Qingwen really couldn't understand what kind of magical machine this "Bichao" was, it could actually see through human flesh and skin, but it didn't prevent her from dreaming that if she could have such a magical machine, she would definitely use it immediately to see if it was a boy or a girl in her belly.
Just when Han Qingwen wanted to continue to ask Zhang Xiaofei for the details of this magical machine, she was interrupted by Wang Kunjun, who was sleeping between her and Zhang Xiaofei. Wang Wuye took the two ladies in his arms one in one hand, and said, "Okay, don't dwell on this matter that none of us can change." Hurry up and go to bed, otherwise, the baby in the belly will be affected. ”
Wang Kunjun's words were really effective, thinking that the child in her belly might be affected, the two ladies immediately stopped talking obediently, and fell asleep peacefully after a short time. Coaxed the two ladies, Wang Kunjun also felt tired, and gradually fell asleep.
Wang Kunjun had just fallen asleep for a short time, when he was heard from outside the house, intermittently "Bang! Bang" woke up. At first, he thought that there was a brother who couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and he was idle and playing with firecrackers. However, soon there was a louder sound outside the house than before, intermittent "Da! Da! Da! Voice. Now, Wang Kunjun felt that something was wrong. Although he is not a soldier, after all, he has experienced the original "Yuxu Palace Defensive Battle", and he can still judge that this sound is definitely not an artillery battle, this is the sound of someone shooting, and it is also the sound of anti-aircraft machine guns shooting.
According to the team system, the anti-aircraft machine gun can only be used when the team members are under very serious threat, so the sound of its firing indicates that the safety of the "Jingyuan" is now in a critical moment. Realizing this, Wang Kunjun's sleepiness disappeared, and he sat up from the bed with a "swoop". Since the two ladies were sleeping with his arms on their pillows, Zhang Xiaofei and Han Qingwen were also awakened by his move. The two of them were still a little confused at first, and they didn't understand what kind of hysteria Wang Kunjun was lying on. Zhang Xiaofei was just about to get angry at her husband, but found that her husband had jumped from the bed to the ground, and then put on his clothes and shoes at a very fast speed, and said to the two of them: "Shooting is going on outside, I'm afraid something happened." You two are waiting in the house, and don't go out until I come back. ”
After speaking, Wang Kunjun pushed open the bedroom door and came to the outer room where the two ladies lived closely. He woke up Lan Xiang and Mei Xiang, who were sleeping here, and asked them to go into the inner bedroom to accompany the two ladies, and he himself came to the main hall. At this time, the gunshots outside gradually began to intensify, and at the same time, noisy voices also reached Wang Kunjun's ears.
As soon as Wang Kunjun wanted to go outside to see the situation, there was a knock on the door of the main hall. Wang Kunjun hurriedly went over and opened the door, and saw Zhang Weixin and Xu Shaoan standing at the door together. Wang Kunjun let the two into the main hall and sat down, lit the candles, and asked, "Seventh, eighth, weishenme will shoot?" What happened outside, as for such a rejuvenating teacher, it seems that even the high machine is used? ”
Zhang Weixin pointed at Xu Shaoan and said, "Eighth brother, you should tell the fifth brother, you know the situation better than me." ”
Xu Shaoan nodded and said, "Okay." Fifth brother, here's the thing. Just now, less than twenty minutes ago, the guards who were guarding noticed that there were some suspicious people in the southwest of our house, who were sneakily moving towards the 'Jingyuan'. Although it is not very real because it is the first moon tonight, but through the reflection of the snow, you can still see the figure vaguely. ,
So, the sentry was more careful. While they were keeping a close eye on each other's activities, they sent someone to report to me. When I got the news, I immediately ordered all the guards in the house to be put on first level alert, and called everyone in the security department to bring weapons and night vision equipment and go with me to the watchtower in the southwest corner of the house to observe. As a result, through the night vision devices, I found that there were about 100 people moving towards the house from the west and south sides of the house, and many of them were armed with sticks, knives and guns.
In the middle of the night, the people who came with weapons were definitely either bandits or robbers, and there would be no other possibility. So, while I put all the guards into combat positions, I asked the members of the security department to wake up several brothers from the military department, and go to the fourth brother to open the warehouse door and get more guns out.
When we have arranged all the people and equipment, those bandits and robbers will soon be on the edge of our house. So I asked them, 'Who are you, and what do you want to come around my house at night?' The bandits and bandits obviously didn't expect their sneak attack to be discovered, and when they first heard me ask, they were stunned for a while. Later, I don't know who shouted, so I rushed towards the courtyard wall and the gate with a shout. Things got to this point, and there was nothing more to say, and I immediately ordered to open fire. ”
Wang Kunjun saw that Xu Shaoan and Zhang Weixin did not have any nervous expressions on their faces, and Xu Shaoan's tone was also very calm when introducing the situation, so he knew that although the sneak attack of the bandits and robbers was sudden, everything was still under his control, and his heart was a lot more steady. He nodded and asked, "How is the battle going now?" ”
Xu Shaoan waved his hand and said, "Fifth brother, don't worry, those bandits and robbers outside are just a rabble. When they rushed towards the house, the formation was scattered and lacked coordination, and in the face of our firepower, they were simply targets. If it weren't for the fact that it was dark, the flintlock pistol's firing accuracy was not enough, and the automatic rifle had a limited amount of ammunition, I wouldn't have given up even the high machine. ”
Although Xu Shaoan was disdainful of this group of thieves, and the guards on his side, plus members of the security and military departments, had nearly 30 fighters equipped with firearms, there should be no problem in protecting the "Jingyuan". However, Wang Kunjun did not completely relax. Because he knew that it was not enough to protect the "Silent Garden". There are still people around the "Quiet Garden", and the bandits and robbers will not be able to enter the "Quiet Garden", so they are likely to turn to loot these people. What's more, there is also a temporary powder magazine in the northwest of the "Jingyuan", where more than 10,000 catties of black powder can be stored, and there are usually only two guards and two domestic servants to take care of it. Moreover, the powder magazine, with its five large storerooms, was far more conspicuous than the homes of the surrounding people, and was probably second only to the "Quiet Garden" to the bandits and robbers, who did not know that it contained things that meant nothing to them.
If the bandits and robbers fight the idea of going there, I'm afraid the four people guarding there won't be able to support it for long. Once the bandits and robbers attack it, the consequences are unpredictable. If someone accidentally lights a fire or something, then everyone will see how the biggest artillery battle of this era blew those rooms and a group of people into powder.
Therefore, Wang Kunjun thought for a while and said, "Although the other party's strength is weak, we can't take it too lightly. Because if they can't capture the 'Quiet Garden', they will most likely turn their attention to the surrounding people, or our temporary powder magazine. In that case, it will also cause us trouble. Especially the powder magazine, once it explodes, it will be earth-shattering. ”
When Xu Shaoan heard this, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and quickly put away his contempt and said, "Fifth brother is still thoughtful, so what should we do next?" ”
Wang Kunjun said: "I think so, let's send a small team of people to reinforce the powder magazine." If the bandits attack the powder magazine, it's just the right time to give them a head-on blow. If they do not attack the powder magazine, but turn directly to the nearby people. Then we will send some more people, equipped with modern weapons, to chase these bandits and not give them a chance to harass the people. ”
Zhang Weixin interjected at this time and said: "This method is good, but we have limited manpower, although it is more than enough to protect the 'Jingyuan', but if the troops are divided into three ways, it will be insufficient." It's a pity that our brothers are here, and no one else in the Flying Dragon Village can use the radio, otherwise, we can transfer people from the pioneer camp over. ”
Xu Shaoan waved his hand and said, "Feilong Village is not close to here, even if you can use the radio to call them here, it is far from quenching your thirst." Actually, in my opinion, the problem of troop strength is easy to solve. These thieves don't have much ability, and even if our brothers who know martial arts don't use modern weapons, it will be easy to deal with them. I calculated, the two elder brothers are in charge here, and in addition to the members of the Ministry of Security and the Ministry of Military Affairs, the remaining brothers of Huiwu plus Qingchen can still have eight people. With that, combined with the armed men we already have, we have nearly forty people. If we organize all the young and strong families in the house, we can mobilize fifty people. If fifty soldiers are divided into three ways, there should be no problem. ”
Seeing that Zhang Weixin still seemed to be a little hesitant, Xu Shaoan added: "If the seventh brother still feels unsafe, I will let the old thirty-five drive out the armored command car, and let the brothers who went out to chase the bandits and robbers fight in the car, so that nothing goes wrong." ”
With an armored car out to protect him, Zhang Weixin's slightest concern was dispelled, and he said: "This is good, this is the safest." ”
Xu Shaoan saw that the three of them had reached an agreement, so he got up and said, "Then I'll go and make arrangements, and the two brothers will just wait for news here." ”
After speaking, Xu Shaoan turned around and walked to the door, and was about to push the door out, when he heard a knock on the door behind him, and then a familiar voice came: "Wait a minute, I'll go with you." ”
