Vol 13 Chapter 67: Li Family Courtyard

After reading this letter, Fang Linyan was also moved: Vladivostok is only more than 700 kilometers away from the mainland of Japan. In this case, after the four Spanish armed merchant ships picked up the people, they could launch a surprise attack within two days!
In this regard, the plan proposed by the Russian envoy was much stronger than sending sailors from Australia.
Of course, don't look at the Russian envoy blowing up the Russian soldiers, but it is certain that these Russians must be very poor in terms of military discipline and obedience.
Even Fang Linyan can guess the composition of these Russian mercenaries, they should be a group of villains, exiled criminals, blocking all adventurers from the Far East...
As far as military discipline is concerned, the British sailors in Australia are clearly stronger.
However, what Fang Linyan wants to do is to throw these Russian scum into the Japanese cities to cause trouble. As for whether their character is all-evil or a humble gentleman, Fang Linyan doesn't pay attention to it. Anyway, the trouble is not the Chinese.
The result he wants is actually very simple, that is, to beat the Japanese so hard, they will face the reality, and then kneel down and call Dad.
What the Americans did during World War II can illustrate this point. After the Japanese were beaten up, they honestly acted as dogs for the Americans for decades.
After thinking about it clearly, Fang Linyan said to Ma Kui very simply:
"Brother Ma doesn't have to go to Shanghai anymore. I read this letter, it's mainly about the money withdrawal, I think the conditions mentioned above can be agreed, wait for me to write a note, you can go again and go. Just send a telegram directly to Master Song."
Ma Kui is also very clear that Fang Linyan and Qiao's family are the money bags of Lord Song. Since it is about financial matters, he can of course decide with one word, so the other party Lin Yan's arrangement has no objection, and directly said:
"OK!"
Next, Fang Linyan hurriedly wrote back the telegram. The telegram at this time was expensive, so he had to be concise, and then handed it to Ma Kui.
At this time, it was almost time for dinner. Don't look at this as a countryside, but I really responded with two poems: "Mo Xiao's farmhouse wine is muddy, and there are enough chickens and pigs to keep guests in good years."
The Huo family is also considered a middle-class family in this township. In addition to the pharmacy, there are more than ten acres of irrigated land, so even if they have just suffered a military disaster, they still have wine and meat for hospitality.
At this time, the weather is hot, and at noon, the rice dregs porridge with cold boiled water passed through, the green radish skin mixed with cold boiled radish, and the browned small fish that have just been fried, and the dead-faced pancakes are also quite rich.
As a result, while everyone was eating, Master Huo's disciple Ah Qi also trotted in from outside, and when he saw Fang Linyan, he said in surprise:
"Young Master Hu, you're back. Master Liu said that he was in a hurry and asked you to come over. He said that he made a new discovery about the group of Japanese people, and they should have found their hiding place."
When Fang Linyan heard this, he immediately became interested and said:
"Oh? Then you can take a bite first, and we'll go there right away!"
Needless to say, the people present are definitely going together.
Li San received the money and was convinced by Fang Linyan. When he experienced the highlights of his previous life, his dream had changed from saving 50,000 taels of silver and washing his hands in a golden basin to being a big housekeeper for Mr. Hu. Since then, I have lived a stable life with a monthly salary of 22 taels and a hot kang head with my wife and children...
Not to mention Wang Wu, even aside from Fang Linyan's relationship, he and Master Huo are also close friends, and it can be said that it is obligatory to come to help boxing.
Tan Sitong, on the other hand, is a pragmatic person. He knows that the imperial court has recently been overwhelmed by this group of Japanese pirates who raided:
Some people say that there are only a few hundred Japanese pirates, and they are just bluffing and robbing their homes.
Some people say that they are only the first troops to come to the outpost, and the follow-up troops are still behind! Advocate for a curfew in the capital immediately!
Some pessimists are directly chanting: Li Gongzhang Li's Huai army has been beaten into a shrinking egg, and now the Beijing Green Camp is as reliable as a bird? It is suggested that Lafayette must prepare for the "Western Hunt" Chengde as early as possible.
Therefore, since they met, Tan Sitong was going to go with his friends to find out the truth of these Japanese pirates. If he got the first-hand information, there was no doubt that his voice in the imperial court would be greatly increased.
And Tan Sitong's identity is unusual. He was originally a wealthy and noble son, and he was deeply trusted by the emperor. He was also the proud student of the emperor's teacher Weng Tonghe. These three identities determined that it was impossible for him to travel in white fish and dragon clothes.
Therefore, when he came this time, he also brought seven or eight followers with him, and they seemed to be very capable. According to Wang Wu's introduction, these people were sent by the grandfather of the Tan family (Tan Sitong's father), regardless of their loyalty or skill. All are first-class strength.
So all the people directly killed them in a mighty manner. After meeting, Fang Linyan found that Master Liu's complexion could be said to be much better.
It seems that after a night's rest, plus Master Huo's conditioning, the injury should be under control. Of course, this is also related to the degree of Master Liu's rib fracture is not serious.
Tan Sitong actually also knew Master Liu, which is the strength of the second generation of officials.
Because Tan Sitong's father worked in the Ministry of Personnel for 15 years before he became the Governor of Huguang, and the Ministry of Personnel was in charge of all the officials in the world. Someone came to make friends, so the grandfather of the Tan family must know most of the officials well.
After a quick friendship, Master Liu said simply:
"These Japanese pirates are so rampant that they dare to assassinate the court officials. This official was really annoyed, so he asked people to explore their traces everywhere. As a result, these thieves were really sneaky, and they were actually hidden in Cui. An island beyond Jiadian."
"They put 300 people on the island, the remaining 100 people directly rested on the boat, and the other 100 people lived in a village called the Li Family Courtyard under the leadership of the local police. in."
Fang Linyan heard a move in his heart and said:
"That said, we have to hurry now. The other party seems to be very vigilant and can get on the boat and run away at any time."
Lord Liu waved his hand and said:
"There's no need to worry. According to the information that this official has learned, these Japanese pirates have been roaming until now, and they are at the end of their lives. They also just contacted the people, and there are nearly a hundred people with injuries. Now that I have rested there, I have to repair it for at least two or three days."
Hearing what Master Liu said, Fang Linyan felt that his source of intelligence was really awesome, so detailed data and intelligence could be obtained.
But if you think about it carefully, if the Japanese contingent succeeds, it will definitely change the current war situation, and even change history. great!
In this case, it is only natural for Master Liu to obtain sufficient intelligence support.

The sky started to get dark, and even a light rain fell.
In the Li family compound, every house was crowded with people, and the Japanese were exhausted. Even if there was no bedding, they just put some straw poles on the ground at will, and they lay down quickly on the spot. The snoring was so loud that he couldn't even wake up, and some of the wounded even fell asleep and died.
In the wing of the master of the Li family, all the people looked at each other in dismay. The one sitting at the top was the master of the Li family's compound, and he looked rather frowning while holding a tobacco pouch, and the three sons were at the bottom.
Suddenly, Master Li's second son Li Quan said angrily:
"The yellow tumor is really a piece of shit! He didn't say that when he came to me, he promised me fifty taels of gold, and then said that a large caravan would stay here for two days! I Thinking about this quick money, it won't make it for nothing, but I didn't expect to come to such a group of plague gods, the yellow tumor of the dog day... ah!"
Before Li Quan finished speaking, he was kicked by Mr. Li:
"Nie Zha! What are you yelling about? There's no door on your mouth? You don't even see whose hand is holding the knife handle now?"
After Li Quan was kicked, the whole person was grinning, but the expression on his face was uglier than crying, but he didn't even dare to return his mouth.
Master Li's eldest son, Li Tao, sighed:
"I took the long-term worker Dazhu and the others to deliver meals. The new group of people were like reincarnations of starving ghosts. They drank the hot vegetable porridge and grinned. He speaks oriental dialect too!"
Li Quan gritted his teeth and said:
"Huang Da Tu didn't say this. He just told me that a friend on the road made a lot of money and was bitten by the government, so he borrowed my place to rest!"
Li Tao ignored the younger brother. If the two brothers were not in control of the old man above, they would have been out of their minds long ago. At this time, I wished that the worse the luck of the younger brother, the better, but continued to add fuel to the fire:
"Father, you don't know the look in the eyes of these people looking at Sister Wang, almost spitting out fire, that's Sister Wang, in her early forties, the folds on her face can fall off, that is, her body. Pretty full."
"These people are very tired now, so they seem to have stopped, but it will be difficult to say when they recover. I think there will be an accident tonight, so it is better to prepare early."
Li Yuanwai snorted softly from his nostrils:
"I still use you to remind me? In the afternoon, I will let Zhu Laosan go to see if the road over the firewood house is still clear. We will leave as soon as it gets dark!"
Li Quan was shocked and said:
"Let's go, don't pack up? What about my wife and baby?"
When Li Yuanwai heard this, he was furious, and he slapped it directly, causing Li Quan's nose to bleed:
"Now you're still thinking about your belongings! Do you want money or your life? Do you want to set up a few cars for you to go out through the front door?"
"This time, if you hadn't seen money and led the wolf into the room, how could such a thing happen!"
Li Quan was embarrassed and didn't dare to speak, but at this time, a group of people suddenly heard the outer door slam twice, it should have been pushed by someone outside, and then there was a loud "kara" sound, it should be Got kicked away.
Li Yuanwai was furious, his gray eyebrows stood up steeply, but before he could speak, he saw Huang Da Tu swaying in.
This person's real name is Huang Daliu, but later a black sarcoma the size of a little finger grew next to his nose, so others call him Huang Daliu. An example of a guy who digs behind his back.
On the other hand, Huang Da Tu's right hand was holding a head, and he threw it in front of them, and said with a smile:
"The brothers who were patrolling just now found a thief who broke into the Zhuangzi! They caught him and killed him. Let's see if the four of you know each other?"
After all, the father and son of the Li family are nothing more than a few local tyrants in the countryside. I have seen this scene of blood steamed buns rolling around, and I was so frightened that I couldn’t help but tremble in their voices. When I saw the face of that head After knowing it, it was even more shocking.
It turns out that this head is none other than Li Yuanwai's confidant Zhu Laosan. Those who are bitter and haha ​​usually see each other, and they have to bow and call out Zhu's housekeeper!
However, with such an acquaintance, his head was already in a different place, and the grinning face was really creepy to see, and goosebumps appeared on his back.
It was also a coincidence that the dead head rolled in front of Li Quan like this, two dead eyes staring at him blankly, Li Quan's stomach turned upside down for a while, and he vomited out with a wow.
At this time, I heard Huang Da Tuo say slowly:
"Before the thief died, he said that someone sent him to inquire about the news, so the adults above asked me to ask if they were acquaintances of the four?"
Li Tao hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"Of course not, of course not!"
Huang Da Tu said with a smile without a smile:
"Really?"
"No!" Li Tao said.
Huang Da Tu sneered:
"You really don't know?"
Li Tao said:
"I really don't know!"
Huang Da Tu shrugged and said:
"That's good, that's good. If you put it this way, you Zhuangzi really don't have any precautions. You were touched by the thief so easily. If the other party does something malicious, wouldn't the whole family be involved? Are you going to die?"
Having said that, Huang Da Tu deliberately aggravated the words "the whole family died", then touched his chin and said meaningfully:
"Several members, you said, our brothers helped you eliminate such a big hidden danger, shouldn't UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com reward you? Let everyone have some good fun?"
Li Yuanwai slapped his thigh fiercely:
"Yes! It must be given!"
The old man stood up tremblingly, and gratefully took out a package from the kang hole next to him, opened it, and the golden light was shining! Then offer it with both hands.
"You take this one hundred taels of gold first! When I look back, there is still two thousand dollars in debt to me from Mamenwai, and I will take it together to thank the brothers!"
When Huang Da Tu saw Jin Zi, a greedy light suddenly appeared in his eyes. After taking a deep look at Li Yuan Wai, he laughed loudly:
"The old man is really bold!"
