The Mage in the Late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 959: Hands Are Two Doors, Killing with Mouth

Zhao Chuanxin, like the members of the Blizzard Team, slept in the wilderness, in the ice and snow, enduring the cold wind.

He was also wrapped in a blanket in the grass nest and woke up from the cold in the morning.

Especially last night, there was still light snowfall. When I woke up in the morning, my body was like a machine without lubricant, its movements were slow and my limbs were stiff.

To say that he loves his soldiers like his own son is not an understatement. Lao Zhao has his own way of doing things.

Breakfast is instant noodles, which is the property of his disciple Yao Bing's family, and they provide the noodles and seasoning packets.

Years ago, the whole family worked together, frying pancakes almost continuously day and night, making a lot of money, and Yao Bing's family status rose sharply.

After Zhao Chuanxin finished a pot of noodles and drank noodle soup, his body finally felt relieved.

Badang'a, Che Hezha, Blizzard Team's captain Sukhbalu, and deputy captain Dari'achi ate with him.

Zhao Chuanxin asked with enthusiasm: "Come on, tell me, what heroic insights have you gained on leading troops along the way?"

Among the famous generals in history, there are those who suck pus from soldiers, some who bandage soldiers, some who share joys and sorrows, and some who have bad tempers...

Zhao Chuanxin is different from all famous generals.

His distinctive and distinctive personality gives him a certain unique charm.

Even the most junior soldier likes to be close to him, listen to what he says, and do things with him.

But everyone did not lose their respect.

Hearing this, Sukhbalu took out a copy of "Reading History and Military Strategies" from his arms and read it nervously, as if a candidate was sharpening his gun before taking the exam.

This book was written by Hu Linyi. It is said that Hu Linyi devoted himself to studying the art of war and compiled it from relevant military contents in historical books such as "Zuo Zhuan" and "Zizhi Tongjian".

When Zhao Chuanxin saw this, he became very angry. He raised his hand and slapped the book away: "Look at these crappy things again, don't say I'm going to kill you! How many uses does this have?"

Sukhbalu sneered, but picked up the book and put it back in his arms.

Zhao Chuanxin took out his cigarette and lit it. A group of people looked at him eagerly: "Sir, can you share one?"

Zhao Chuanxin shared cigarettes next to each other.

Batang'a was a rough old man. He said: "In my opinion, the most important thing is the bravery of the soldiers. Everyone we saw along the way ran away. Isn't it because of morale?"

"Shit!" Zhao Chuanxin dismissed it.

Che and Zha simply stopped talking and gave Sukhbalu a hard look.

Sukhbalu gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Whoever has more guns will be more powerful."

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chuanxin nodded: "You are a little bit right."

"Um..." Sukhbalu scratched his head: "Is there anything more important than guns?"

Seeing that they really couldn't tell anything, Zhao Chuanxin couldn't help but sigh: "It's nothing."

Everyone: "..."

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Let me tell you what preparations are needed to fight a small battle.

Before departure, Zhang Heyan had prepared various plans to deal with Japan, Russia and the Qing court.

The Bureau of Official Commodity purchases and inspects all your equipment except guns and cannons, including your blankets, belts, ammunition pouches, leather bags, and even a small button, as well as grain. These Bureau of Official Commodity spend a lot of thought.

We conducted detailed pre-war analysis and determined the general route and goals of this trip.

Then there is the war itself.

Powerful and efficient logistics is more useful than reading 10,000 military books.

The pension system and pay are the key to stabilizing military morale and improving the quality of individual soldiers.

Let soldiers be trained until fighting becomes instinctive. When they encounter the enemy and panic, they don't even need to think. They instinctively know how to hide and use various combat techniques. This is equivalent to self-playing chess. Only when the generals command can you get twice the result with half the effort.

Only when you have done these things can you talk about courage, morale, and will. "

Dari Achi said self-righteously: "Sir, after this, comes the art of war, right?"

"Wrong." Zhao Chuanxin didn't show any dignity at all: "Then there is intelligence. Along the way, your intelligence is almost non-existent. Everything you hear and see is information deliberately released by others. If you plunge into Sangbeizi, , I will probably be beaten to the point where I won’t be able to recognize my parents.”

Badang'a refused to accept: "There are many of us, so it's not certain who will win and who will lose."

Zhao Chuanxin handed him a drawing: "See for yourself."

The blueprint shows the Sangbeizi terrain, with extremely detailed markings on power grids, minefields, machine gun ambush points, and enemy base camps.

The four people leaned their heads to take a look and gasped.

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and asked: "You think your morale is usable and your equipment is well-equipped, but you are still okay if you run into this dragnet? Tell me, how many people do you have? How many people count in front of machine guns and artillery?"

The four of them had nothing to say.

Zhao Chuanxin concluded: "War is not metaphysics or philosophy. There is no need to read "Zuo Zhuan", "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and "Reading History and Military Strategies". It is useless to learn from the literati. If it is useful, it will be useless. It will make the foreigners cry for help. War is a machine. If you operate every gear well, you will have won most of the battle. I will let you experience, feel, and adapt to war in the first half of the journey; I will let you experience the second half of the journey. Take care of every gear yourself.”

Zhao Chuanxin only gave the route and really didn't care about the rest.

When encountering various grassland tribes, Sukhbalu and Dariachi went to negotiate on their own.

For those who couldn't negotiate, Badang'a and Chehezha came forward. After all, they were the general managers of one wing and had some cards.

One day later, the Blizzard Team and the Gray Ax Army met outside the city of Drobalsa.

The soldiers in the city felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy when they saw the two armies converging.

Che and Zha took people to negotiate and told them that they were here to suppress bandits, but the city gate was still closed.

Che and Zha were used to it, because they always had this reaction all the way here, and in the end nothing happened.

However, as soon as he left, the city guard Galu immediately summoned people: "Hurry to Sangbeizi and inform the Japanese that people from Lubin Prefecture are coming."

"Inform the Chechen Khan."

"Notify Baras City."

Middle last secondary flag, center left front flag, center right rear flag, left left flag, left right right flag, right left flag, left rear last flag, right center right flag, right center left flag, center last right flag, right center front flag… …Notice in place one by one.

Zhao Chuanxin allowed his men to do whatever they wanted without making a move, and the old monk on the horse entered meditation.

Che Hezha, Batang'a, Sukhbaru, Dariachi and others led the Blizzard team on the right wing, and Hu Da led the Gray Ax Army on the left wing, several kilometers apart.

North of Sangbeizi, Aoki Xuanchun learned that Zhao Chuanxin was coming, and immediately handed over the military power to the newly promoted Tsarist Russian captain. After making some arrangements, he went north.

After Demuchukdorji learned that Zhao Chuanxin and his army were passing by Zhuobalse and wanted to attack Sangbeizi, he told the messenger to ask Galu not to act rashly.

On the other side, he immediately went to notify the Manchu Kulun Minister Yanzhi.

Yanzhi was a senior official of the Manchu nationality. He had served as the chief envoy to Henan and Shanxi, and had managed the Yellow River. He had rich experience and was experienced in his work.

This kind of person usually doesn't make any big mistakes while in office.

When he learned that Zhao Chuanxin was really here, he was shocked: "Don't provoke him. I will report it to the court immediately and wait for the decree. You must not have a quarrel with him. You will give him a reason to cause endless troubles. Don't say that you were unpredicted." !”

Demuchuk Dorji saw that Yanzhi was afraid of Zhao Ruhu, and he said in confusion: "Zhao Chuanmin and his people are running rampant in the Chechen Khan tribe. He is really arrogant and has no king's law. Are we just going to let him do whatever he wants?"

After all, he is the Chechen Khan, and it would be a lie to say he is not angry.

Yanzhi looked solemn: "Even the great powers are afraid of him. Do you think he will be afraid of you?"

Demuchukdorzi was displeased.

After returning, he told the person who wrote the letter: "If appropriate, create obstacles for Zhao Chuanxin. Although you cannot fight with him, you cannot let him pass smoothly."

It's true that I'm afraid of you, but don't think that I have no temper.

The Gray Ax Army and the Blizzard Team cannot be said to have made anyone angry, but they certainly made the princes and nobles everywhere unhappy.

If you go to someone's house to show off your power, they won't be happy with it.

Galu quickly gathered a group of people.

As the sun set in the west, the Gray Ax Army and the Blizzard Team set up camp to rest.

From the direction of Zhuobalsai, there was the rumble of horse hooves.

Hu Da, Badang'a, Che and Zha were immediately on alert.

A group of knights came from a distance. The knights shot a round of arrows. The arrows landed far away from the camp.

They shouted in the wind: "I advise you to leave quickly!"

"Otherwise I want you to look good."

"You wait!"

"Our Chechen Khan is already angry!"

Hu Da and others looked at each other, then laughed.

Half an hour after the group left, they came again, shot a round of arrows and left with a shout.

Half an hour later, I came back to shoot arrows again.

The main theme is a toad on the instep, which does not bite people but responds to them.

In addition, they seemed to be determined not to let the army rest, and their intentions were cruel.

Che and Zha were furious and came to Zhao Chuanxin for instructions: "Sir, let me lead the troops to teach them a lesson."

Zhao Chuanxin held a cigarette in his mouth and said: "You ask people to pull out the arrows on the ground and put them on your arms. When they come, say that you were shot by them. Then fight back, capture them alive, and question the person behind it." Who is it? There is no need to be angry. Instead, we want to thank Brother Bang for the carnival. The Baer Hu Right Banner is going to expand its territory."

Che and Zha took the order and went.

Sure enough, the group came again.

Here, several soldiers from the Blizzard Squad were holding arrows and shaking them on their bodies, screaming, "Oh, I've been shot."

"damned!"

"it hurts!"

boom!

Then a gunshot rang out.

Sauron's sharpshooter who was ambushing on the side shot one man in the shoulder and shot off his horse.

The opponent was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. The talented man boldly tried to save his fallen companion, but Che and Zha led others to shoot him indiscriminately and scare him away.

He was captured alive and brought back for questioning.

The other party gritted his teeth and kept silent.

Zhao Chuanxin watched with cold eyes, and finally became impatient and waved: "Bring this person over."

After being brought there, Zhao Chuanxin took out a Mosin-Nagant rifle bullet, pulled out the warhead and said, "I have a spell called - Great Memory Restoration! It doesn't matter if he doesn't say it now, as soon as I cast the spell, He will open his mouth."

Everyone became interested and gathered around to watch: "How on earth do you want to cast the spell?"

The knight who was shot was extremely nervous.

Because he has also heard that the prefect of Lubin Prefecture knows the magic of demons.

Zhao Chuanxin sprinkled the ammunition in the bullet casings on the knight's wounds.

"ah……"

It really hurts to kill.

Zhao Chuanxin activated the Old God's Crucible Brand, and the high temperature instantly ignited the gunpowder.

laugh……

The gunpowder was ignited, and the flames shot out from the front and back of the punctured wound.

"ah……"

The knight let out a heart-rending scream.

Everyone was horrified and grinning.

How painful is this?

Zhao Chuanxin asked him cheerfully: "How is it? I have a great memory recovery technique, is it working?"

The man looked at Zhao Chuanxin with hatred, and the muscles on his face were twisted and deformed in pain.

Zhao Chuanxin was greatly disappointed: "This spell may not work once, let's try it again."

After saying that, he took out another bullet and pulled out the warhead. Prepare to pour medicine into the knight's wound.

When the knight saw it, he finally collapsed: "Ah... I said, I said, I have restored my memory!"

Everyone: "..."

It turns out that this is called the Great Memory Restoration Technique!

"It's Ji Chechen Khan. He asked Galu to lead people to stop it, and he can't fight you. In addition, Jebzundamba is unhappy with your behavior in the grassland and is very disgusted. He supports this matter."

Zhao Chuanxin said to Sukhbalu: "Let people write down his words and make fingerprints. These are all evidence."

The man's expression changed slightly.

Zhao Chuanxin added: "By the way, remember to write that Chechen Khan Demuchuk Dorji tolerated traitors and condoned horse bandits and grass bandits, causing thousands of casualties in Lubin Prefecture. This account must be blamed on him." "

It's pure blackmail. How many soldiers are there in Lubin Prefecture? How can we get so many dead?

The man finally got scared: "I didn't say it, I won't admit it."

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "Come on, force him to make a mark and put his fingerprints on it."

"you……"

Che Heza said worriedly: "Sir, is this not appropriate?"

After all, he was the Chechen Khan, and in the past, he could be regarded as a prince.

Zhao Chuanxin sneered: "You think I'm slandering him? Think about it, although the grassland is vast and sparsely populated, we could still see many herdsmen when we came. They rushed to tell each other, and everyone knew that we were coming. . When the Japanese-Tsarist-Russian thieves came, were they blind? "

Che Hezha's eyes widened: "Sir, are you saying that Chechen Khan deliberately indulged them? He actually colluded with outsiders. Isn't this..."

Che and Zha wanted to say that they had been raped.

But mid-sentence, I suddenly thought that since the New Deal, the imperial court had participated in the reclamation of grassland regardless of the interests of the banner people and the princes and nobles.

In particular, more than half of the exorbitant land rents of various princes and nobles were collected by the imperial court and returned to the treasury.

It can be said that none of the decrees issued by the Qing court were beneficial to the herdsmen.

Why did Zhao Chuanxin win the support of the grassland people as quickly as possible?

The reason is that although he also cleared land and recruited Han people, he took into account the interests of the grassland people and the princes and lost the mulberry trees in the east.

Che and Zha are typical examples.

If they only followed the Qing court's decree, they would eventually be deprived of all their hair.

But Zhao Chuanxin made them rich and powerful, and those who obeyed could still retain a certain amount of power.

Therefore, Che and Zha were halfway through talking and couldn't continue anyway, so they somewhat felt the same way.

Then he looked at Zhao Chuanxin: "My lord, it would be better to take over all the land east of Kulun as Lubin Mansion. All the tribes, herdsmen, and even the Shabi Yamen of Jebzundamba will be responsible for it in the end. I will support you in the end.”

Zhao Chuanxin smiled half-heartedly: "Are you sure that Jebtsundamba and the princes and nobles will support me?"

The Qing government implemented the New Deal, and Zhao Chuanxin was also undergoing reforms.

Zhao Chuanxin's method was relatively mild, retaining the noble and letting go of the noble.

Money can be given, but power must be withdrawn, and their aristocratic aura will gradually disappear.

Zhao Chuanxin's attitude towards religion is clearer. The major temples are more like business editors. Don't even think about collecting taxes. They also need to guide the people to reduce the benefits of charity. As for power?

Don't even think about it.

But Tsarist Russia was different. They tried their best to win over and instigate princes and lamas, and sent "expedition teams" and "inspection teams" to the grasslands many times to win over living Buddhas.

When Zhao Chuanxin and the Lubin government officials were drinking on weekdays, they often laughed and joked that when Russian merchants sold goods, they would immediately pay tribute to Jebtsundamba. Russian women could often be seen coming in and out of Buddhist temples.

Having tasted the sweetness, Jebzundamba may find it difficult to accept Zhao Chuanxin's policy towards them.

Che and Zha sighed.

Batang'a sneered: "Either come and vote, or we can take it ourselves."

He is a die-hard supporter of Zhao Chuanxin.

Che Heza shook his head: "It's not that simple."

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "Let him press his fingerprints."

After dinner.

Zhao Chuanxin asked Sukhbalu to arrange for him to teleport back to the White House after the night shift.

"come over!"

The Chihuahua has been reacquainted with its owner.

Its legs are gradually improving. Although it walks with a limp, the injured leg can now exert strength.

Zhao Chuanxin gave it a small piece of sausage and soaked the bread in water.

This dog cannot eat dog food that is too dry.

Ajure Ida was cleaning the fallen leaves on the newly paved floor tiles in the courtyard. Every time he turned around, Zhao Chuanxin would come.

"Mr. Constantine, you are back. Do you want to have breakfast?"

Zhao Chuanxin smiled: "I just finished dinner, what should I have for breakfast?"

"..." Agure Ida scratched his head: "It would be nice if I didn't have to eat breakfast again after dinner."

Zhao Chuanxin asked him: "Have you inquired about what I want?"

"I heard about it." Agure Ida put down his broom: "I heard Urquidi Gomez say that there is a mixed-breed horse in the house of a mounted patrol policeman in Cholula. It is tall and can run and run. Tuo is about to be sold. It is very suitable for you to ride.

As for the weird stuff you want, the only option is a two-day ride on horseback to Puebla, where goods are shipped from the chemical factories in Mexico City. "

Those chemical materials were used by Zhao Chuanxin to make incendiary bombs.

It has been a long time since he refreshed the "Old God Code".

All fear stems from insufficient firepower.

Hurry to Puebla, he's got a sneak peek at the Palafos Library after all.

So he said, "Where is Cholula?"

I decided to buy a horse first.

"Going east from here, it takes a meal's time to ride a horse and half an hour to walk."

Zhao Chuanxin looked at his watch: "You lead the way, let's go buy horses."

The main purpose of buying horses is to deceive others.

He can't always ride the second-generation dragon blatantly.

Especially short distances.

He has become accustomed to Kuitsalan, which is his transit warehouse, resort, and Xingyue's laboratory and workshop.

Ajure Ida went to lock the door, and just as Zhao Chuanxin was about to leave, the Chihuahua followed him limping, calling out as he walked.

Zhao Chuanxin picked it up and said, "How many times are you yelling?"

This dog was too light, like a big mouse, and Zhao Chuanxin had almost no sense of weight.

Mountainous city in Mexico.

The trouble with traveling is that it's always uphill and downhill, plus you have to walk through forest paths.

In a jungle, Zhao Chuanxin saw a deer.

The strong wind made it difficult for people to open their eyes. Zhao Chuanxin carried the Chihuahua and followed Ajure Ida on various trails.

Zhao Chuanxin pointed to a hillside and asked, "What is grown here?"

"Only agave can be grown in this barren mountainous land." Ajure Idamenqing.

Zhao Chuanxin thought thoughtfully: "Tequila can be used to make wine, right?"

"Sir, agave can also be eaten. When I become rich in the future, maybe I will plant a piece of agave and make soup to distribute to the poor."

"That's very generous of you."

"..."

While chatting, we arrived at Cholula.

Agure Ida stopped in front of a pretty house with a black cherry tree in the yard.

Before knocking on the door, he warned Zhao Chuanxian: "Mr. Constantine, you need to know in advance that Obregon is a local Kashyyyk and a policeman on the mounted patrol. When he eats tortillas, he must put guacamole on them. There was always roasted venison in the house, and punch was always served at every meal, and he always bought wine by the arova, and he was a man of rank.”

Karthik is the local power.

Arova is a unit of weight, one Arova is about 23 kilograms.

Zhao Chuanxin opened his mouth into an "O" bubble: "Wow, he is so powerful. I have never seen such an awesome person in my whole life."

"..."

Just as Agure Ida was about to knock on the door, he paused again, turned around and said, "The mounted patrol police are very dangerous. You must be careful when dealing with them, otherwise you will be killed."

"Boil!" Zhao Chuanxin cursed: "Do you have to add this sentence?"

This kid - his hands are two doors, and he kills people with his mouth.

Crow's mouth, I hope it doesn't turn out to be a prophecy.
