The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Zhao Chuanxin didn't know that his great ancestor had already made some guesses about him.

Although it is not correct, it is in the right direction.

Of course, he felt that Zhao Zhongyi would never guess his true identity anyway. Maybe one day I will tell him, I really want to know what his expression will be like.

New Year's Eve passed like this.

Zhao Chuanxin didn't keep up the New Year's Eve. He didn't want to suffer the consequences, so he went to bed directly.

In the whole village, his lantern was the highest hung, and it stayed on all night long.

In the 30th year of Guangxu's reign, it was the first day of the first lunar month.

Zhao Chuanxin put on new shoes, socks and clothes, and after breakfast, he sat at his desk and wrote out his training plan.

Even though it is only the first day of the new year, we must hurry up and train, time waits for no one.

It’s not just Zhao Chuanxin who is struggling.

Ding Kaizhang, a student at the Imperial University, was also discussing with his classmate Zhang Rong.

"It's unreasonable. Japan and Russia are actually fighting on Chinese soil. It's shameful!" Ding Kaizhang was extremely angry. "We must act."

His hair is thick and parted in the middle, and it trembles on the top of his head when he is excited.

Zhang Rong wears a mustache and looks calm, but in fact he is more impulsive and passionate than Ding Kaizhang.

He frowned: "If we want to achieve something, we can't just rely on publications or literati. We need to go out and gather all the available forces."

His family was well off, and his uncle had both prestige and wealth in Liao, so he dared to shout this slogan.

Obviously, Ding Kaizhang knew about his situation and immediately slapped the table: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's buy a ticket and go outside the customs!"

These two men were both revolutionaries of this period and made great achievements. Ding Kaizhang finally died of illness, which can be considered a good death. However, Zhang Rong was assassinated by Zhao Erxun and Zhang Zuolin.

…

By the 30th year of Guangxu's reign, time in China seemed to be speeding up.

Everyone's pace is intense.

Chengming and his men withdrew in despair.

Everything went as Zhao Chuanxin said, Changshun took the benefit and ordered him to withdraw his troops.

When Chengming came to Lugangling Village, he came full of resentment.

boom!

Chengming put the tea cup on the coffee table.

Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly said: "Oh, I spent a lot of money to buy this in Shengjing. Don't let me break it."

Chengming immediately became despondent again: "As you expected, Yang Yushu bribed Changshun."

Zhao Chuanxin secretly said that the wheel of history was rolling forward. He did not stir up much trouble at all, and things continued to develop as usual.

He asked: "So, have you found out where Yang Yushu is?"

Chengming said in a muffled voice: "Let's find out, it's on Xiaogushan here, on a mountain called Zhanzhonghua."

"Here you go!" Zhao Chuanxin was very happy. "It saves me having to go all the way to find him."

Chengming narrowed his eyes and said, "So, how can we cooperate? Changshun has ordered me to withdraw my troops, and I don't have many available men now."

Zhao Chuanxin took down a map from the shelf: "Look, this is Xiaogushan. Although Xiaogushan is dangerous, there is not only one road. I attack from the front. If I can defeat them, they will definitely break out from here." I don’t have enough manpower, so I can only fight one side. You ambush here and hit them in the face when they escape. If you hit them in the face, you can always win, right?"

He said this as if he knew how much of a waste he was.

But looking at this very detailed and special map, Chengming was surprised.

It turns out that this person has been plotting against Xiaogushan for a long time?

He gritted his teeth and said: "I don't have too many people, but if you fight me to the death, it's not yet known who will win."

Zhao Chuanxin patted him on the shoulder: "It's not that bad. You just need to hold him back for a while. I will rush over as quickly as possible. Let's attack him from both sides so that he can't escape."

If you say leave, leave.

Zhao Chuanxin summoned the insurance team.

There are thirteen people in the insurance team, so there is no room for more. Because there are only so many suitable people, and after all, the size of Lugangling Village is very limited.

However, because of the large number of seizures during his last trip to Shengjing, Zhao Chuanxin handed over some old and badly worn weapons, including some native guns, to the villagers, and occasionally let them practice shooting with them.

At this time, weapons were distributed to them. If their hometown was stolen, they would organize to resist.

Chengming looked at the straight-backed, muscular members of the insurance team and nodded secretly.

This Zhao Chuanxin training is definitely a good player.

Zhao Chuanxin didn't waste any time: "I told you before that the fight is about to begin. The target, Yang Yushu, is on Xiaogu Mountain at this time. If we win, we won't have to worry about guns and ammunition in the next few years. There is still a lot of wealth on the mountain. Good, you must all understand this little thing about getting rich."

Shuangxi was the first to boo: "I understand, I understand!"

"Hahaha……"

Chengming next to him: "..."

Why do you feel like these are a group of bandits?

When I heard about getting rich, my eyes glowed green.

He suddenly wanted to interject, but couldn't help but said it out: "There are at least a hundred people on Xiaogushan, and there are only thirteen of you."

A member of the insurance team named Zhang Daquan immediately said with bright eyes: "A hundred and ten pigeons must have more money than Xiao Jinzi'er and the others!"

"Yes, the more people, the more money."

"That's the truth. If you don't have enough money, you can't support these people."

"Then Yang Yushu has a lot of industry, and all the valuable goods have been snatched away. The money must be old!"

Cheng Ming has nothing to say.

These people are out of their minds.

Everyone is crazy.

Zhao Chuanxin said with a smile: "It's okay. Unless you die, you will make a fortune this time. When you come back and feel that you have made enough, you will retire and let new people take over to make a fortune. When the person dies, the money will be divided among you. My family, I guess I won’t have to worry about food and drink in this life.”

Shuangxi shouted: "Why are you retiring? I still have to build a big house, buy dozens of sets of clothes for my mother-in-law, and raise cattle and horses. No amount of money is enough."

His mother-in-law was the one who was kidnapped back from Shengjing.

"Yes, keep grabbing. There are so many blond horses and beards in the three eastern provinces that we can't finish them all."

At this time, even Zhao Chuanxin had nothing to say.

After all, he is a rational person, but these people are simply irrational.

Poor people are terrible.

On Xiaogushan, Yang Yushu was a little depressed.

He just can't stand the loneliness in the mountains.

He has property, a woman, and a luxurious house. Who wants to stay in the mountains?

Fortunately, the money given to Changshun worked.

But he didn't dare to go down the mountain immediately.

He has many informants, and people are tipping him off everywhere. Those people told him that although Cheng Ming retreated, he hated Yang Yushu very much and had threatened to kill him.

The gangsters on Xiaogushan were very happy. Yang Yushu came and brought a large amount of weapons and ammunition, rice, flour, grain and oil, and various meats.

In the mountains, even if you have money, your life is miserable.

So, everyone was very happy these days, eating meat and drinking wine every day.

Yang Yushu felt that his right eyelid kept twitching, as if something bad was about to happen, and his face looked very bad.

He said to Zhanzhonghua: "A single man does not fight against power. This incident must be taken as a warning in the future. Look at Chengming, who only fought in one battle and swore to kill me. If I were an official, he would He’s a thief, so he wouldn’t dare to say that to me.”

Zhan Zhonghua couldn’t figure out what her “gan guy” was thinking.

But he is happy. Gan Laoer moved all the temporarily purchased "arsenal" to Xiaogushan. Although these do not belong to him, at least some of them can be left behind.

He just nodded and bowed: "Godfather, you are right. But we don't need to be afraid of him Chengming. On Xiaogushan, Chengming can't attack him."

Guyan, who has become the polished commander next to him, knows Yang Yushu better than Zhanzhonghua. He rolled his eyes and said, "Ganglao, why don't we go down the mountain? Even if Chengming hates us again, he won't dare to violate Changshun's policy. Order. At worst, return all Niu Zihou’s belongings and I won’t want them anymore.”

This spoke to Yang Yushu's heart.

He muttered: "Okay, in a few days, we will go down the mountain. Don't feel like you are at a loss. I will compensate you and let you make a comeback."

Guyan was overjoyed and was waiting for this sentence.

But Zhanzhong Hua was in trouble.

Lone Goose has really become "Lone Goose", and this old guy actually wants to help him start a new organization. Why don't you help me grow my power with that money?

Late at night, everyone was sleeping, but Yang Yushu was thinking about something and couldn't sleep.

He opened the door and felt the cool air blowing in his face, making him shiver.

After walking out of the room and breathing the cold but fresh air, Yang Yushu became more energetic and felt no sleepiness at all.

As he walked slowly, the dogs in the village began to bite him.

A patrolman checked and found out it was Yang Yushu, so he quickly scolded the dog.

After all, the dog was not familiar with the "newcomer" Yang Yushu, so it still barked.

The dog got angry and hit it twice with a stick. The dog stopped barking and returned to the den aggrievedly.

The forest under the mountain is vast and hazy, and the moonlight is not visible, making Yang Yushu feel shadowy when he looks at it.

After looking at it for a while, I felt a little cold, so I turned around and went back to the house.

When a person is cold and then warm, his head becomes confused. Not long after, Yang Yushu fell asleep.

At this time, the dog barked again.

Yang Yushu had just fallen asleep when the dog barked and the patrolman scolded him. He woke up again and fell asleep again soon.

Not long after, the dog started barking again, a new round of scolding and scolding.

Repeat several times.

He finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

But he said that the dog in the cottage was beaten several times, and finally he became silent and hid in his den.

Even if it is a stress response, it has learned how to behave like a dog with its tail between its legs.

Not far away, Zhao Chuanxin touched Gan Fan's head: "Good job."

The dogs barking on the mountain were caused by him asking Gan Fan to tease them.

People are easy to spot, but dogs pass by quietly, the target is small, and with the cover of night, it is difficult to spot.

After several times, the dogs in the village were beaten until they stopped barking.

This time Liu Guogui came, he sighed and rubbed his hands, smiling mischievously: "This is a bad idea, you can only think of passing on salary."
