However, to Asquart's disappointment, in this section of wagons, a container of goods, he used a crowbar to open it, and found that it was actually a bucket of paint. Of course www.biquge.info Asquart didn't know what it was, and when he saw a barrel, it was usually what kind of food, because once he found a barrel of pig's trotters on the train, and the thing in front of him was obviously inedible just by smelling it. But Esquatt will not give up easily, and perhaps this thing will be sold to Spanish merchants before it may be exchanged for weapons.

Several friends also jumped into this carriage, they didn't even look at the corpse of Xiao Zhao, the policeman on the ground, and even Cousie felt that it was in the way, so he kicked the corpse away a little, so as not to hinder them from walking in the wagon.

"What is this?" This experience is not uncommon for the Apache people, because almost every time they hop on the train of the Don, they discover something they don't recognize. The Tang people seem to have an endless supply of new things, which makes the young people of Apache feel that jumping a train is a very good way to survive.

The paint and coating in the carriage is also a popular product exported by Datang in recent years, especially in European countries, and the demand for high-quality Datang paint is very large. Now a major industrial country in Europe, Datang Paint has cleaned the market and occupies a dominant position. The paints produced by Datang are not only widely used in the construction field and wood processing industry, but also some high-end coatings, such as anticorrosive paints, marine paints, heat-resistant coatings, etc., are indispensable raw materials for the emerging European industry. With the rapid development of Datang, its industrial categories have become more and more sound, which is unmatched by any European country. Even an old power like Britain can make a rifle with metal cartridges after absorbing a lot of Datang technology. Able to build steamboats. But there are still a lot of things that need to be imported from Datang. Paint is something that can not be saved, in terms of performance, traditional tung oil and other coatings are still far from Datang's industrial coatings.

Esquart didn't know the value of the paint, but he called out to a few friends and threw the sealed paint out of the car. Throwing things down and down on a speeding train is basically impossible to get anything intact. The wooden seals immediately fell apart, and a few buckets of paint broke and flowed everywhere, but there was some luck. It just rolled up, and it wasn't badly damaged.

Esquart was no stranger to this, he had never expected anything stolen from the car to remain intact.

"Hurry up, those Tang people are coming!" Esquart urged, and his fellow robbers laboriously picked up another box of paint and threw it out of the car.

Cousy said at this time: "Esquat, are we going to change places, it's all stuff that we don't know what's useful, we can't eat, we can't wear, we can't fight, and we don't know if we can get anything useful." Maybe other places have better! ”

Esquart hesitated slightly, they usually only robbed a wagon. Because it obviously takes more time to get from one wagon to another, and the police officers in the car react to attack them, which will cause more damage. Earlier, they could jump on the car without the Don notice it, and there were no guards in the carriage, and at that time they could really steal as much as they wanted, but later the Tang people strengthened the guards, and there were police officers in every section, and when they gathered, the warriors of the Apache were obviously no match for many muskets, so Esquart wanted to fight quickly and not drag the mud and water.

Robbery of trains has become more and more risky, and the scheming Esquart just asked his companion Mochi to go first, but in fact, it was not to let him test the risk. Mochi, who has no brains, was really hit by the Tang people's ******, so Esquart can take advantage of the police officers in the uniform. Of course, if Mochi was hit by a series of bullets, then Esquart would not be on it at all, he had some insight and knew that it was a submachine gun of the Tang people, which could be fired continuously, and he would have eaten the bullets if he went over.

After only a few buckets of paint, it was obvious that Esquat could not satisfy him, and his courage grew with his continued success. He only thought about it for a few seconds, then made a decision, shouting, "Go, go to the next section!" ”

Several young Apache boys whistled excitedly, and Esquart stuck his head out to see what was going on. It was evident that the last wagon had been captured, which made the policeman in the previous wagon so frightened that he did not even show his head, but put one hand outside and opened fire with a pistol. The shots did hit a horse, but they didn't hurt anyone. And he quickly ran out of bullets from his pistol.

In fact, the railway safety department is not very wise to use this way of arranging a police officer in each carriage, although these police officers have received professional training, but when they face the fierce robbers, they can only fight alone, and the opponent is swarmed up, so it is not wise, but it is easy to cause casualties of the police. Of course, it is useless to do such an afterthought now, and the decision of the department in charge of railway safety will be held accountable by Congress sooner or later without detailed argumentation.

The police also gathered the strength of seven or eight people at this time, the wagons used in this bulk freight train are closed, and there is no passage between the front and rear like a passenger train, and the police need to hold the handrail, and then move to the next carriage little by little, this movement method is no different from the robbers, so the speed is not fast.

The captain also carried a submachine gun, the old-fashioned Thompson, which had a history of more than ten years, and after the Tang Army fully retired this weapon, some of them became police.

"Everyone be careful, the other party is hard stubble, Comrade Xiao Zhao may have been killed, I don't want other comrades to sacrifice, pay attention to vigilance, after approaching the wagon where the robbers were, two comrades with submachine guns climbed to the roof of the car, you take things to fix yourself, don't fall, use the suppressive fire of the submachine gun to kill those who have not jumped up first!"

The captain knew that someone had died this time, and that he had taken the blame, but instead of feeling sorry for himself, he might as well take back control of the wagons and take out these rampant Apaches.

The older Lao Zhang scolded: "These damn Apache barbarians, why didn't our army come and destroy them all, always make trouble for us!" ”

Li Xingjie knows more, he said: "How to say that this is a Spanish colony, we can't be too casual when we do it." ”

The captain glanced at Li Xingjie and said: "If this continues, the Apache people will become more and more lawless, and in the end, I am afraid that something big will happen, and the country will definitely take action, this railway is the lifeline of our country, and there is no room for failure." ”

They were slowly approaching the wagons behind them, and Esquart and the others were already approaching the next wagon. The police officer on duty in this wagon saw that the group of Apache wanted to come, and he had already emptied his pistol bullets, so he did not choose to single out a group of Apache in the wagon. He immediately climbed out of the wagon, shrunk and jumped to the previous wagon. Although such a choice is a bit unfaithful, it is understandable, and it is better than losing one's life.

The Apache soon made their way into this section of wagon, but to their disappointment, it was not painted, but it was still something that could not be used directly - boxes of steel bar. The three southeastern states are building rapidly, and more than half of the 100,000 immigrants who arrive in Datang every month are transferred to the three southeastern states and inland states, which require a large number of building materials, and the three southeastern states have just started, and their industries are not as developed as the three states on the west coast, so most of the building materials still need to be transported from the west coast to the east by rail.

"More useful than that thing just now!" Esquart took out a piece of steel bar.

The tall and thin Apache lad Chahmo's eyes lit up and asked, "There are patterns on it, it's metal, it's hard metal, is this a weapon?" ”

Esquart shook his head, "No, it should be for something else. ”

Cussi exclaimed, "These Tang people are really extravagant, metal is not used for war, but for other things." ”

In fact, Esquart has long recognized this problem, the Tang people have a very powerful ability, Esquart used to envy, they have all kinds of methods comparable to witchcraft, can use all kinds of materials, and make them into more useful things. Esquart had thought more than once that if the Apache White Mountain tribe could learn this kind of witchcraft of the Tang people, they would be able to live a better life.

He didn't know very well that the Indians on the West Coast had basically been naturalized into Tang people, and many of the second-generation aboriginal teenagers who had grown up had been completely Tangized, and they had entered the public schools of the Tang Dynasty since they were born, learned Chinese, and grew up with the children of the Han people, many of the children were even unfamiliar with the original language, and could only use Chinese.

On the other hand, many Western colonizers have forced the children of indigenous people to enter special schools to learn the Chinese language of the patriarch, Australia and Canada have similar blood and tear schools, and even a large number of indigenous children have been abused to death. In Datang, the children of the aborigines not only receive education, but also have adequate nutritional intake, and the society hates discrimination, which also makes the local second-generation aborigines have a high degree of sinicization in almost half a generation.

Most of the aborigines of the West Coast have lived a similar life to the Han people, although on average, due to the level of education, language ability and other factors are slightly worse, but all of them are above food and clothing, and enjoy undifferentiated national welfare. What Esquart considered the "witchcraft" of the Tang people, they were able to use it as well, and lived a life unimaginably good for the Apache people. (To be continued.) )
