"Huh? How many of us are fighting with the Eight-Nation Alliance? Ma Ping'an was immediately surprised, "What are you going to do?" ”

Wu Chuyu glared and said, "Hey, you don't know yet, right?" Our Beijing Student Bloody Defense Corps has weapons, you know Sun Fulun, right? ”

"Yes." Ma Ping'an said.

"Sun Fulun, do you know what he does?" Wu Chuyu asked by biting his fingers.

"Isn't it the king of the soles of North China? Half of the soles of the entire North are made by his family. ”

"That's right." Wu Chuyu said excitedly, "He praised all his pocket money, guess how much?" ”

"How much?"

"Eight hundred dollars."

Ma Ping'an's eyes widened and he shouted, "So many? Eight hundred! He...... His family is really rich. ”

Wu Chuyu said: "That kid is amazing, he saved so much money quietly, he found someone to steal from the guards in the palace and bought three spears, all of which were new Mauser guns." ”

"Huh?" Ma Ping'an said excitedly, "Three poles? ”

"A hundred rounds of ammunition were returned." Wu Chuyu said proudly, as if the gun was his own, "In the future, our Beijing Student Blood Defense Corps will be a veritable security regiment, and we Beijingers will defend Beijing." We don't care if others give up Beijing, we Beijingers can't do without Beijing, you say? ”

Ma Ping'an was like-minded, and immediately nodded: "Yes, we must not give up Beijing." He rubbed his hands together and said, "Can I touch it then?" ”

"You, okay, you're your own person, by the way, are you going to join us?" Wu Chuyu asked.

"Of course I'm going to participate." Ma Ping'an suddenly jumped and said, he grinned and shouted: "How can I not participate? "Teenagers of this age are enthusiastic, nothing more, but anything can arouse their curiosity and yearning, and now the national public opinion is promoting patriotism, all are preaching the greatness of China, the strength of China. I have dedicated my life to my country. Ma Ping'an naturally can't fall behind, if he falls behind, how can he see people in the future, and he will be ridiculed by his friends as timid as a mouse, don't be scolded as a traitor, how ugly it is to be disloyal to the country.

"Okay, count you in. Sue you, this gun will be placed in my house from now on. My father and mother died of illness last year, so they left me such a courtyard house and some living expenses, hey, there is no one else, my family is the best warehouse. Zhou Zheng said that the gun will be handed over to me for safekeeping in the future. Wu Chuyu said proudly.

Hearing Zhou Zheng, Ma Ping'an was suddenly full of confidence. If this classmate is here, he will have the backbone, and he asked happily: "Is it organized by Zhou Zheng again this time?" "Zhou Zheng is the strongest in this group of classmates, and his family background is good, the most important thing is that his father is an officer of the National Defense Force and is serving in the Western Regions, which gives him a very proud background.

"Of course, otherwise he wouldn't dare to give Sun Fulun three guts." Wu Chuyu said with a smile. "In the next place, Tian is a gun custodian." He looked at the sun and said impatiently: "Why haven't you come back yet, didn't you say that you will come back as soon as you buy it?" ”

Ma Ping'an asked, "Tell me, how did you make a deal with the palace guards?" ”

Wu Chuyu was uncomfortable staying at home, and he couldn't keep it a secret, so he immediately pulled the stool and said: "This thing is interesting, you know the abolished emperor in the palace, right?" Circle in the palace every day. It's no different from waste. Although the entire palace is his, the palace is still in charge of the internal affairs of the former Qing Dynasty, and those people secretly embezzle and intercept the flow, making the palace maids and the inner guards unable to live. Those guards also have to support their families, they used to steal some cultural relics in the palace to sell, last year there seems to be a problem, stealing and selling palace cultural relics were killed more than 20 eunuchs and palace maids and Ouchi guards. Now they are also cautious about buying and selling the relics in the palace. Don't dare to be unscrupulous anymore. But life has to pass, and the guards thought of a bad move, isn't there wear and tear on ordnance every year? The grandsons sold weapons at a high price, which was counted as wear and tear on ordnance. Two hundred and fifty dollars for a Mauser spear. ”

Ma Ping'an immediately said: "I heard that the best and latest Fire Lianzhu is only one hundred and seventy-five yuan, right?" The last time I passed by the door of the gun shop, I saw a propaganda poster, that is, the bullets seemed to be civilian bullets, not military bullets. ”

Wu Chuyu immediately popularized knowledge and educated this classmate Ma, who didn't understand the world, and said: "If only I could go to the gun store to buy it, can we do it?" To buy a gun, you need a gun license, and in order to get a gun license, you must comply with three conditions, and you can only have a gun license to buy a gun if you meet one of them, do you know? Silly robes, not everyone can buy them. ”

"Three more conditions?" Ma Ping'an was surprised, "Tell me." ”

Wu Chuyu said eloquently: "The first condition is to have a hunter certificate, this thing is not easy to get, there must be a local official as a guarantee, to ensure that you are a hunter, you can have a gun license issued by the government, how can we have any hunters in Beijing." The hunters are all in the ravine, and if the hunter kills with a gun, and the local officials who vouch for him are also implicated, the first one will not work. The second condition for obtaining a gun license is to have more than 20,000 assets to protect your property, buy a gun to protect your property, how can we poor students have assets, you look at my family, I can't sell it for 2,000 silver dollars, right? Neither can the second one. The third is that you have a certificate of orphans of military martyrs, do you have it? ”

"Nope." Ma Ping'an said regretfully.

"Neither do I." Wu Chuyu said even more regretfully, "It's a pity that my father died of illness, if he died in a soldier, I will get an orphan certificate, hey, no." He didn't care about talking about his deceased relatives, so he continued: "We can only buy it in this way, yes, for the sake of you being one of us, this secret has been revealed to you, don't tell others, you know?" In the future, we will be a big army, and when the generalissimo of Shangwu confers the title on us, we will all be generalissimos! ”

Ma Ping'an laughed and said: "That's good, I want to be a generalissimo." ”

"I'm going to be a generalissimo too, haha, we're all generalissimos."

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Wu Chuyu immediately said excitedly, "They're back, let's go, pick them up." As soon as the door opened, it turned out to be Ma Ping'an's younger brother Ma Jixiang, Ma Jixiang smiled: "Brother, I knew that you were at his house, and our father said to let you go home quickly." ”

"I'm not going home." Ma Ping'an said.

Ma Jixiang immediately said, "You don't go home?" My mother is sick, and you don't go home? ”

"Mother is sick?" Ma Ping'an asked anxiously.

"yes."

Ma Ping'an turned back to Wu Chuyu and said, "Wu Chuyu, my mother ......"

", it's useless." Wu Chuyu turned around and went back to the house to bake the coal stove.

Ma Ping'an returned home with his younger brother, and when he saw that his mother was fine, he was so angry that he grabbed his younger brother's ear and prepared to beat him, but he was beaten by his father again, and his mother Lu Ping told him that everyone had not bought a train ticket, and they had to see tomorrow, Ma Ping'an was secretly happy in his heart. After dinner in the evening, Ma Ping'an ran out of the wall, and as soon as he jumped out, he heard a pop behind him, and saw his twelve-year-old brother Ma Jixiang also jumped out and fell a big belly, and said angrily: "Don't follow me." ”

"No, or I'll tell you sù my father."

Ma Ping'an was so angry that he pointed to his younger brother and said, "You kid, you owe a beating, right?" ”

"Brother, if you beat me, I'll cry, and as soon as I cry, my father and mother will come." Ma Jixiang said slyly, "Brother, what are you going to do, is there something big?" Take me, take me. ”

Ma Ping'an was choked up, and said fiercely: "You and I are behind my ass, don't talk nonsense, you know?" ”

"Okay."

The two ran to Wu Chuyu's house, and before they arrived at his door, they saw a large number of police officers in white police uniforms at the door of Wu Chuyu's house, and the neighbors probed their brains to look at the excitement, Ma Ping'an was just about to move forward, Ma Jixiang quickly grabbed him and said, "Brother, something happened, don't go over." Don't you see? Wu Chuyu broke the law, you are his classmate, if you are seen by him, you will have to do something. Ma Ping'an looked at the situation inside, then listened to his brother's words, hid behind a tree, Ma Jixiang said, "I'll go and ask." So he walked over, inquired with other neighbors, and said to Ma Ping'an when he came back: "Brother, your classmates are going to rebel." ”

"Huh? Rebel? Ma Ping'an was taken aback.

"Yes, the neighbors said that he rebelled, and he also bought a black gun, and was served by Lian Pot, brother, nothing is wrong with you, right?" Ma Jixiang asked.

"No, no ......" Ma Ping'an was also anxious in his heart, why would Wu Chuyu rebel? Don't they just want to defend Beijing? Besides, they are crazy about worshipping the generalissimo of martial arts like themselves, what kind of rebellion, whose rebellion? In this world, the generalissimo of martial arts is in charge, how can there be a rebellion! The police must be mistaken, could it be that the guards in the palace slandered? It must be, it must be, these damn minions! He suddenly thought of Wu Chuyu today and said that he was one of them, so was he a member of the rebellion? If I were a member, would I be arrested? What should I do? What about younger siblings? His heart pounded so hard that he broke out in a cold sweat, and when he returned home, he was so frightened that he caught a cold. This winter's wind and cold, how can it be easy to go, Ma San and his wife Lu Ping are combined, come on, let's go in a few days.

Ma Ping'an waited at home anxiously for a few days, no police came to the door, relaxed a little, and asked his younger brother to go to Wu Chuyu's house to see, Ma Jixiang came back and said that Wu Chuyu's house was sealed, and it was estimated that he was really arrested and couldn't get out, and he was exiled to the Western Regions, so scared that Ma Ping'an, a little angry young man, no longer dared to publicize it.

But then the rumors gradually disappeared, and Ma San's family also stayed in Beijing, but Ma Ping'an has been worried, and he is even afraid that the police will find the school when school is about to start. But a few days later, I suddenly saw Wu Chuyu wearing a military uniform and came to his house with great interest, Ma Ping'an asked you in surprise What seems to be wrong, Wu Chuyu said excitedly: "I joined the army." ”

"You're not ......"

Wu Chuyu grinned and said, "Wang Xiaoer has no mother, this is a long story......"
