Chapter 23 Brothers
Tao Ke Taohu left Wen Yongyu's tent, and took the people back to his place, Yashi, who didn't go, saw his solemn face, and couldn't help but ask: "Why, the Han people didn't agree?" ”
Tauktau Hu did not speak, but Deliger said: "Chief Wen asked us to be stationed behind their camp, and said that the Qing soldiers came so that they would not return. ”
Yashi thought that the Han people did not agree, but now he has seen such Tao Ke Tao Hu with a straight face, he is very puzzled, he wanted to ask again but saw Tao Ke Tao Hu ordered the team to go to the back of the Han military camp to camp. Hearing the order to set up camp, everyone was overjoyed, they came from Liquan with two horses, they were very tired, and they were almost chased by the Qing soldiers twice, and they escaped completely because the Qing soldiers were not good at equestrianism. However, after running down more than 1,000 miles, people are already tired and tired, and at this time, they can finally set up camp and rest, so why are they unhappy.
While there was still some light in the sky, hundreds of people quickly set up camp, and at this time, Wen Yongyu came to invite Tao Ke Taohu to drink as the host. Although the snow on the grassland in March is beginning to melt, it is still extremely cold outside, and the banquet is still set up in the big tent of the Chinese army. As soon as the Taoketaohu people entered the tent, they only felt that their bodies were warm, and the fat sheep on the fire had been roasted, and they only felt hungry for a while. At this time, Wen Yongyu did not set up the score as he did just now, but politely invited them to the table to serve wine and food.
When Wen Yongyu and Tao Ketaohu were drinking, Zhang Zuolin's department, which was dozens of miles away, was roasting in a few yurts, and after chasing for more than half a month, the two pots they brought were all drunk, and they could only buy local pots. However, the bandits fled in a panic, where can I find a pot shop on the grassland. Even the horses are not easy to supply. Unable to do so, the troops had to forcibly requisition the herdsmen's horses of grain and sleep in their yurts. Of course, there are still rapes of Mongolian women under lax military discipline. The more reluctant they were to trade, the more they were forced to levy, and the more they were forced to trade, the more unwilling they were to trade.
After the breakup of Baiyin Dalai and Tauk Taohu. Zhang Zuolin's department of encirclement and suppression also broke up with Wu Junsheng, the commander of the back road, and Wu Da Tongue insisted on chasing Baiyin Da Lai, because there was a lot of gold and silver there. You can see the marks of the wheels of the carriage; But Zhang Zuolin is chasing Tao Ke Taohu, he doesn't want gold and silver, he just wants to be promoted, although the last time he booby-trapped Du Lisan, he was promoted once. But that's not enough. He can see that in this troubled world, he can't do without soldiers in his hands, and in order to have soldiers in his hands, he has to be a bigger official.
"Report to the Commander!" Outside the yurt, the spies hurriedly dismounted and shouted loudly, and after a while let them in. "Commander, Tauktahu has encamped thirty miles ahead."
"Oh! Haha, there are times when they can't run. Zhang Zuolin laughed. During this period of time, the pursuit of eating and sleeping in the open only tired him enough. I didn't think of the time when the bandits in front of me were still camped.
"They ......" The spy looked at the happy look of the commander, and hesitated to say whether to say when Tao Ke Taohu and the revolutionary army joined forces, Zhang Zuolin was happy, and Zhang Jinghui next to him saw that he was different, so he asked: "Why are they camping in front?" Could it be that there are bandits ahead? ”
"It's not a bandit, it's a member of the revolutionary army." The spy sweated profusely, and finally finished his sentence.
"Ahh Zhang Jinghui's heart suddenly sudden, he was still thinking about whether this Tao Ke Taohu was crazy, not going north but going south, it turned out that he had joined the revolutionary army. He hurriedly said, "Is this true?" ”
"It's true! It's true! I could not be wrong to see the men of Tauktahu camp behind the camp of the revolutionary army. The spy asked, looking like he was vouching for it. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhang Zuolin throw him a piece of silver, he went out as if relieved.
"Pull a, I knew that it was not good for them to go south, and this really hooked up with the revolutionary army." Zhang Jinghui was in a hurry, Zhang Zuolin was definitely not surprised, he was only surprised that the revolutionary army let the Mongols join the gang so quickly.
"Big brother, how can this revolutionary army get mixed up with the Mongols? Don't they know that we are chasing Tauk Tau Hu this time? "The one who spoke next to him was Zhang Zuoxiang, the youngest of Zhang Zuoxiang's many brothers, and he could use his brains to fight, unlike Tang Erhu who would only come hard.
"What's so strange about that?" Zhang Zuolin smiled contemptuously at the corner of his mouth, "If you want to be famous on the road, the word benevolence and righteousness are the most important." Now the revolutionary army is not only at the junction of Mongolia and Han, as in the past, but now it has penetrated deep into Mongolia. If Tauktaohu's request for help is turned away by him, then don't want to mix in Mongolia when it gets out. I thought they were just helping them out for a while, and then letting Tauktahu run into the mountains, but I didn't expect them to take it all on their own. What a fucking kind! ”
"Then let's fight! I didn't like them earlier. Tang Erhu shouted: "Although there are a lot of our people behind, what do thousands of anti-thieves have to worry about, they are directly on their shoulders." ”
"Never!" Zhang Jinghui saw that Tang Erhu was going to be impulsive again, and he was really afraid that Zhang Zuolin would listen to him, "Wu Dayu fought with them earlier, but it was a one-touch collapse, and he lost several battalions. Although these anti-thieves are anti-thieves, they are not much worse than us, they are real knives and guns and big noses, and there are a lot of big noses to kill, and I heard that there are several special electric guns. We must not be reckless, we must not be reckless! ”
"What recklessness? More than 2,000 people took advantage of the night to let their horses rush straight over, and when they were caught off guard, there were stun guns, and that was ...... That also ...... "The murder weapon of the electric gun is very famous in the hearts of the bandits in the entire Northeast, and the Japanese died so many people in Lushun, weren't they all killed by the electric gun." Tang Erhu began to speak passionately, but when he got to the back, he was silent.
Waving his hand to restrain the quarrel of several brothers, Zhang Zuolin asked, "Where are Brother Feng's people?" ”
"According to the days, I'm afraid I'm going to Fuxin." Zhang Jinghui said that when he went south, Zhang Zuolin asked him to arrange for someone to go to Jinzhou to find Feng Linge for help, and he still felt that it was too much at that time, but he didn't want Zhang Zuolin to count it to today, and he couldn't help but be impressed.
"Then wait until Brother Feng comes." Zhang Zuolin said indifferently, "Send someone to talk to them tomorrow." Just take advantage of the past few days to gather the team behind. This revolutionary party. If you can't fight, you won't fight, but if you don't know each other, you will block Lao Tzu's way to be promoted. Then don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind. ”
Zhang Zuolin's lobbyist arrived at Wen Yongyu's camp early the next morning, but when he saw this person, he invited Tao Ke Taohu over to listen to what everyone had to say. After last night's feast, and seeing the revolutionary army helping his wounded, Tauk Tau Hu's previous worries had been completely put down, and he was invited to come over at this time. And it came very quickly.
"Our commander said......" The lobbyist said this, and suddenly saw a Mongol vote coming out from behind the tent, and inside it was the Tauk Tau Hu that he wanted to capture, and the conversation stopped for a while.
Wen Yongyu and Tao Ke Tao Hu said hello. Then he looked at the stunned lobbyist and smiled: "Say, what does Zhang Zuolin want to do?" ”
"Our commander ......" saw that the revolutionary army was really with the Mongols, so the people who came simply let it go, and said loudly: "The Han people should help the Han people." The Mongols should not be helped. Our Commander said. As long as Chief Wen can hand over Tao Ke Taohu and is willing to become brothers in life and death with Chief Wen, if the Qing army invades in the future, he must be notified in advance, and his brother will never suffer. ”
"Haha, I remember that Du Lisan seems to be his brother too," Wen Yongyu asked rhetorically, only leaving the lobbyist speechless. In fact, the bandits' set of sworn brothers. It is completely different from the purge of the Revival Society, and there are not a few who kill their wives and children for the sake of their brothers. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, for Zhao Yun, Adou also fell, which is what it means. To be sure, this is a good way to expand its power, but in the past, the Revival Society did not have any brothers, and now the Revival Society has put an end to this kind of gang brotherhood infiltrating the organization.
"You go back and tell Zhang Zuolin that the revolutionaries have no brothers, only comrades. There were no Han Chinese or Mongols, only yellow and white people. He Zhang Zuolin colluded with the Japanese as the lackeys of the foreigners earlier, and now he is listening to the errand under the puppet manchu of the foreigners, in order to be promoted, he kills his brothers and his compatriots, which is simply doing all kinds of evil. If he goes on like this, sooner or later he will eat retribution. "Wen Yongyu has heard of Zhang Zuolin for a long time, and he knows everything very well, but this is all a bandit, otherwise how can he climb up. Although dissatisfied, there is nothing to despise.
The lobbyist was estimated to have been born with a beard before, but he was a little bold, and he didn't panic when he saw this, and said, "Chief Wen really wants to go against our big boss?" ”
"What I said just now is just persuasion, no matter how much he Zhang Zuolin does evil, I can't control it. If he doesn't come to hit me, I won't beat him, and I won't go into the water and not in the river. Wen Yongyu was not angry when he saw his threat, although he was not afraid of Zhang Zuolin's three or four thousand people, but if he could, he would not fight first.
"Then let's see." The lobbyist saw that Wen Yongyu's attitude had been determined, and he knew that it was useless to talk more, so he thought about going back to reply. He was about to leave, but he was stopped by the guards behind him, he turned around and looked at Wen Yongyu and asked, "What does Chief Wen mean?" ”
"Where did you get your jacket and those leather boots?" Wen Yongyu looked at him and just smiled, only feeling that others had come just in time and gave him one more chance to become famous.
"This ......" the lobbyist started but couldn't go on, he was dressed on his feet and stolen from the herdsmen, he was smart, he knew that Wen Yongyu wanted to use this to stand out for the Mongols, so as to gain a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, and he was suddenly angry. Is the head of Wen a Han Chinese? ”
"As I said, there are no Han and Mongolian people in the revolutionary party, only yellow and white people. Someone came and took off his jacket and boots. Wen Yongyu smiled proudly, as soon as he spoke, several guards twisted the comer, took off his jacket and boots, and just waited for Wen Yongyu to fall.
"Commander." Wen Yongyu shouted again.
"Yes!" The officers of the gendarmerie stood up.
"What is the crime of robbing people's property?"
"Robbery of people's property violates Article 8, Paragraph 3 of the Military Regulations of the Baxing Army, and shall be punished with three days of imprisonment and 30 military sticks in terms of the value of the property." The officers of the gendarmerie have always been reticent, but when convicted, they are loud and loud. In his words, Tao Ke Tao Hu couldn't help but be confused, is there really a soldier in this world who does not rob people's property? Of course, this is his current cognition, and he will know in the future that if the revolutionary army does not rob it, it will be robbed, and as soon as it is rescued, it will grab the big ones, and those things of the common people are not rare.
The lobbyist was very scared when he was restrained by a few guards, and he only heard that the old Shizi military commander sentenced him to thirty military sticks, so he knew that his life was worry-free, and he couldn't help shouting: "The surname is Wen." Hitting me is a slap in the face of the big boss, and it's too late for you to fucking regret it now, or ......"
"The military discipline of your big bosses is not strict. robbed people's property everywhere and raped people's daughters, and I, Wen Yongyu, will help him rectify military discipline. Come on! Take him out and beat me hard. Wen Yongyu didn't care about him scolding, and directly let people take him out.
Listening to the screams outside the tent, and then thinking about what Wen Yongyu said, 'regardless of Han and Mongolian', Tao Ketaohu bowed to Wen Yongyu and said: "The people of the grassland should be grateful for the great kindness of Chief Wen. I, Tao Ke Tao Hu, am willing to join the ranks of Chief Wen. ”
"It is the discipline of the revolutionary army not to take a stitch from the people." Wen Yongyu said, "As for joining us. Don't be in a hurry for the Tauk brothers, wait until they understand what a revolution is, and then it's not too late to join. ”
The screaming outside the tent soon stopped. The lobbyist was given a gift, but he was now covered in scars on his buttocks, and he couldn't sit on his horse, so he had to be tied to a horse and sent back. The thirty-mile journey on the grassland was not too far, and these people soon returned to Zhang Zuolin's army. As soon as the lobbyists entered the camp, they wailed. Waiting to be helped into the yurt. Then he shouted: "The big boss, the revolutionary party is not reasonable at all, not only to protect the bandits, but also to scold the big boss, and finally, in the end, I also found a stubble, then I beat it." ”
Sent to lobby is Yao Laosan of the former insurance team, who can speak and understand bluffing. This time, he was beaten back, and Zhang Zuolin was furious: "Damn it." The two armies are at war, and they do not come to the enemy. What is his surname diploma beating? ”
"Don't worry, Yuting, ask clearly first." Zhang Jinghui persuaded on the side, and then looked at Yao Laosan, and said in a deep voice: "Yao Laosan, don't be sloppy, they are all your own brothers, what did Wen Yongyu say?" ”
He said, he said," Yao Laosan recalled, "I said that the big boss wanted to give him a sworn brother, and he asked back...... "Du Lisan's matter is Zhang Zuolin's weakness, Yao Laosan had to skip it, and then said: "He said that the revolutionaries have no brothers, only comrades, and he said that in his eyes, there are no Han people, Mongolians, only yellow people, white people, and he also scolded the Japanese who used to take refuge in the big boss to the foreigners, and now he is working as an errand under the puppet Manchu people of the foreigners...... In the end, he said that the jacket I was wearing was robbed, and not only did he pick it up, but he also beat me with thirty military sticks, saying that he wanted to control and control the big boss......"
"Well played! Why don't you fuck you. Zhang Zuolin scolded angrily, although Yao Laosan didn't say everything, but he still heard the omitted Du Lisan, but he didn't get angry about this matter, but in the end, he heard that Yao Laosan was beaten for this, and suddenly became angry and shouted: "I told you bastards not to rob the people's wealth, you just don't listen." Now the Mongols have avoided us far away, and they can't eat enough, and if the snow hadn't melted, the horses would have starved to death. Where's your fucking money? You don't give money when you take something, do you? It's all gone, isn't it? ……”
Zhang Zuolin said that he couldn't get angry, and only smashed all the things on the table, Yao Laosan was so frightened that his face was like dirt, and Zhang Jinghui next to him hurriedly persuaded: "Yuting, they are all brothers, they are all brothers." The big guy can't help it. ”
"Brother, sooner or later he will be harmed by these royal babies." Zhang Zuolin started by swearing to his brother, but he also understands such shortcomings, since he is a brother, many times he can't turn his face and deny people, otherwise the people around him would have been dispersed a long time ago.
"Big brother, brothers can't help it. Thousands of miles of chasing, the grain and grass behind can't be transported, and the big guy can't do it. Zhang Jinghui didn't listen, and Zhang Zuoxiang came to help again. However, Zhang Zuolin did not give up, and shouted: "Come on, drag it out, and give me thirty military sticks." This is the end of robbing people's money. ”
Seeing that Zhang Zuolin was going to bring himself thirty military sticks, Yao Laosan fell to the ground softly for a while, only thinking that he must have collided with the immortals all the way today, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. Seeing that Zhang Zuolin was angry, when Zhang Zuoxiang wanted to persuade him, he was stopped by Zhang Jinghui on the side. When he saw Zhang Jinghui like this, his mind suddenly turned, and he stopped making a sound. Tang Erhu was still shouting loudly there, but Zhang Zuolin didn't care about it, and only watched the guards drag Yao Laosan down before stopping.
When Yao Laosan was beaten with military sticks again, several fast horses went in all directions, calling the troops to strictly abide by military discipline and not to rob people's property. But these people were not only shouting in the barracks, but they were also going around, and when they saw the yurt, they had to go and talk in Mongolian. The herald went away, and the guards also finished beating thirty military sticks and returned to Zhang Zuolin to resume his life. Zhang Zuolin asked, "You're not dead, are you?" ”
"No, no, no. didn't hit the back, just asked Brother Yao to shout a few times in response to the beat. The guards returned.
Seeing this, Zhang Zuolin stopped talking. After sending him away, he touched his head with one hand and said, "This revolutionary party ...... Alas, I'm afraid I'm going to settle down in this grassland. And fucking say that we are not disciplined by the military, what a fucking joke! If only they did not collect taxes on the caravans passing by. Drink the northwest wind? It's really a bitch and a torii. ”
Zhang Zuolin said that the revolutionary army was not good, but just now, he was like the revolutionary army, and he also beat Yao Laosan with thirty military sticks. He actually didn't want to admit that others were smarter than him. In the vast grassland, although the road is flat, it is difficult to replenish, and if you don't have a good relationship with the herdsmen, you can suppress the bandits. I'm afraid it's not okay to fight a tough battle. Now the revolutionary army is protecting Tao Ke Taohu, and only changing the level of the war from bandit warfare to field warfare, which makes Zhang Zuolin have to be cautious. He knew the combat strength of the revolutionary army. If you lose the battle this time, I'm afraid you will be beaten back to the prototype. He can't be defeated!
Zhang Zuolin's department and Wen Yongyu's department faced each other on the grassland of Naiman Banner, and Wen Yongyu had no intention of retreating. And Zhang Zuolin didn't mean to fight. But time passed. Zhang Zuolin pulled the troops behind him to return to the team little by little, and soon there were more than 3,000 people, but at this time Zhang Zuolin still didn't do anything, and every day he either drank or lingered in the tent with the third lady Dai Xianyu. It was only one day, when he received a tip, that he returned to his true colors of iron and blood, and went out of the camp in military uniform, watching a group of galloping knights. Waiting from afar, the person who came was Feng Linge.
"Big brother!" Zhang Zuolin was with several brothers. But Feng Linge approached, and only he shouted loudly.
Feng Linge, who was immediately embraced, was a sturdy man in his thirties, who only flew off the horse when he got close to Zhang Zuolin, and then looked at the big car shop guy in the past, but now the little man who was on an equal footing with himself shouted: "Old pimple, what are you welcome?" Let's go in, let's go in. ”
Zhang Zuolin was the youngest among the sworn brothers, and Feng Linge called him 'Old Pimple', in order to show affection and care. He said that after entering the yurt, he didn't wait for Zhang Zuolin to lead the way, and went to the yurt by himself. Zhang Zuolin knew that Feng Linge was coming, and he had already arranged the banquet, the door of the tent was opened, and the charcoal fire inside was burning, and the tent was as warm as spring, plus the fat sheep on the charcoal fire, which had been roasted and browned, and the grease dripping out made the charcoal fire under it not burst out of bunches of small flames. When Feng Linge walked in, the two young women who didn't know where to find came up to remove Feng Linge's coat from the outside, and then brought a basin of hot water to wash his hands and rub his face, only to make Feng Linge very comfortable.
"Old pimple, what are you doing here? We're just fighting, not here to escape the heat. Feng Linge has a hot temperament, even if he speaks comfortably, he feels like he is angry. However, Zhang Zuolin already knew the temper of this eldest brother, and he didn't look at the others, just looking at the corners of his slightly upturned mouth and the eyes cruising on the woman, he knew that he was not angry, but very satisfied.
"Big brother, I'm also forced to do it, if I don't eat and drink well and have fun, I have the heart to fight. Damn, seeing that the duck was in her mouth, I didn't expect that the revolutionary party would come over with a knife and actually merge the Tao Ke Tao Hu. Zhang Zuolin complained, a person who has been sleeping in the open for a month, and he is about to be promoted, but he doesn't want the cooked duck to fly.
"I know the people of the revolutionary party," Feng Linge said loudly after eating a piece of roast mutton and taking a sip of Erguotou, "when I beat my nose, their head Zhong Mei was a man, very bold, I had a friendship with him, but unfortunately he died." Now the leader of the revolutionary army is a man surnamed Wen, although I have not seen it, I will go to Lala with him tomorrow and hand over the Mongol. They are all Han Chinese, why do they have to protect outsiders? ”
"Big brother, you can't go." Zhang Zuolin has been paying attention to Feng Linge and his two brothers, and Zhang Haipeng's expression is not intended to eat meat at all. Finding Feng Linge was a last resort, but destroying the revolutionary party and arresting Tao Ketao Hu was two feats, especially the revolutionary party, although the rear message was vague, but from the tone of the word, it was an extremely big deal.
"Why can't you go?" Feng Linge threw the bones on the plate and asked with his mouth open.
"Those sub-revolutionaries don't recognize brothers, they only identify with aspirations. What else to say In their opinion, there are no Mongols and Han Chinese, only yellow and white people. He even beat up the people I sent over, saying that I had taken refuge in the foreigners, lackeys, and the Japanese, and now I am working as an errand for the foreigners' slaves, and that I am a traitor and a slave with a few surnames. Zhang Zuolin paraphrased the words of the revolutionary party, the sentences were roughly the same, but the meanings were different, especially the four words 'several surnames of domestic slaves', he said very loudly.
Sure enough, Feng Linge, who heard this, was so angry that he only blocked the woman behind him who helped him interject, and said viciously, "Damn, he didn't scold you, he scolded me too." Tomorrow, when the cubs have rested enough, and seven or eight thousand of us will sweep straight over, I don't believe that the gun in the hands of the revolutionary party is as hard as his mouth. (To be continued......)
