Chapter 652 Hankou Leshan Hall
Seeing plainclothes Gu Zhunian suddenly barging in, Sun Wu and Zhang Tingfu were stunned for a moment.
"Who are you? How dare you break into the camp..." Zhang Tingfu, who was born in a noble family, spoke first angrily.
Before Zhang Tingfu could finish his words, Gu Zhunian's eyes were as cold as a blade, making him shudder and shut his mouth.
I was so paralyzed that I didn't even open my eyes to see. I was holding a military order gold medal in my hand.
Gu Zhunian endured it, raised the gold medal in his hand, and said loudly:
"Stop talking nonsense. The general has ordered you to arrest all the people on the list. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."
He suppressed the anger in his heart, took out a few paper orders from his arms, with execution addresses and lists on them, and put them on the desk.
He shook the gold medal for troop deployment in his hand again, raised his eyes and stared at the pair of enemies in front of him, and said sternly:
"You make arrangements as soon as possible. Remember to arrive at the destination before early morning tomorrow and complete the task before dark tomorrow. Otherwise, military law will severely punish you."
"As ordered, please tell the general, your humble position will definitely fulfill your mission." Sun Wu stood at attention with his head raised and said loudly.
This Sun Wu was unambiguous, and his military orders were as clear as a mountain.
Although he knew in his heart that the plainclothes man in front of him was the subordinate named Chen Tianhua, and he was of course conveying Chen Tianhua's orders, but he was holding a military order gold medal, and the person holding the order was equivalent to the general himself. No matter who has a temper, he must restrain himself.
, follow military rules.
Otherwise, if you reward your merits afterwards, someone will gossip about you. If you put on some embroidered shoes, all the ducks you get will fly away!
Why bother, just to say one more thing.
Gu Zhunian didn't want to talk to them. After conveying the order, he walked out of the auditorium and courtyard and rode back to the military camp to report back to the major general.
It is said that Sun Wu and Zhang Tingfu had just stumbled over each other, but now that the military order was issued, their hearts suddenly became brighter, and they finally had the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
Although these two troop commanders have somewhat eccentric temperaments, no one has ever doubted that they both graduated from the Armed Forces School and are capable of leading troops.
"Old rules..."
Picking up the orders, Sun Wu pulled them apart, took one at random, and walked out of the auditorium.
Zhang Tingfu, who was sitting on the bench next to the desk, glanced at the contents of the remaining two pieces of paper, looked up at Sun Wu's back as he left, and stood up with a sneer.
They made it clear in advance that if they went out to perform a mission, they would each bring half of their troops and complete half of the mission. They would compete secretly to see who could complete it better.
In the courtyard of the mansion, Sun Wu has already assembled the team. This guard camp is actually his old unit. He returned from studying in Japan two years ago and worked as a leader in the guard camp for a year. He was promoted to a guard camp six months ago.
Deputy standard system.
Seeing that what he was about to take away were more than 570 old troops from four companies who were ready to go, their expressions were as excited as the sun in summer.
This was completely different from his usual silent appearance.
"The order we received from the general this time is to arrive at the destination before dawn and arrest profiteers, spies and traitors. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" replied uniformly.
Everyone is so excited. After ten days of confinement here, they can finally go out to stretch their muscles and have a chance to make meritorious deeds and receive awards. Why not do it!
These four companies all have Sun Wu's old troops as the main force, and most of the company officers and platoon leaders are his younger brothers.
Going into battle to kill the enemy is no child's play. The elder brother works hard and the brothers work hard.
At this time, they were as excited as their elder brother, but their expressions were as cold as ice, and their eyes were filled with murderous intent.
They finally understood that the mission they were carrying out this time was special. In addition to arresting people, it might also involve killing.
In other words, they are now a group of people born to kill.
"Kaiba..."
Following Sun Wu's low shout, he and his men rode into the wilderness, holding high the yellow Panlong Army flag.
…
Hankou Concession, Hualou Lane.
The Japanese company Lezendo was established here.
Leshantang Foreign Trade Co., Ltd. has existed in the Qing Dynasty for more than 20 years. Its headquarters is actually in Shanghai. It was founded by Japanese businessman Kishida Ginka.
Ginka Kishida was actually a major in the Japanese Army and the head of Xuanyangsha's secret service. He commanded the Japanese Army's spy network south of the Yangtze River in the Qing Dynasty.
Three years before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War of 1888-1894, Japanese Army Captain Arao Sei was ordered to set up a Leshantang branch in Hankou, which became a base for Japanese rogues and army spies in Hubei.
The famous spy Ishikawa Goichi, the instigator of the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-88, was from Hankou Leshantang. He was sent to Tianjin to lurk, and later stole a series of information such as the Beiyang Navy troop transport "Gaosheng" to increase troops in North Korea, and forwarded it to the Japanese station.
Tianjin Consulate.
Later, the Beiyang Navy was ambushed halfway by the Japanese Navy's combined fleet, and a naval battle broke out.
More than ten years have passed, and Hankou Leshantang has established a more extensive spy network throughout the Huguang area, ranging from the Yamen military camp to the rural mountain mining areas. They have also established a spy school - the Nissin Trade Research Institute.
In the early morning, at the same time that Gu Zhunian was riding a horse in the suburbs of Wuchang, the Leshan Hall in Hankou across the river was also busy.
Pavilion in the back garden.
Walking along the cobblestone path, Arao Hikari walked towards the small pavilion not far away step by step.
Hikaru Arao is the younger brother of the president, Sei Arao. As the president's assistant, he is the number two person in the company.
A pool of lotus flowers, nourished by the spring scenery, blooms brilliantly. The wind blows slowly, and the water in the pool is slightly wrinkled and shimmering, exaggerating the atmosphere of spring and summer.
In the pavilion, a man wearing a kimono turned around.
He is nearly forty years old, has eagle eyes, a hooked nose, a beard, and an expressionless face.
He is Saburo Yoshida, the leader of the Huguang Black Dragon Society, and Taro Yoshida, the leader of the Black Dragon Society in the Japanese Concession in Hangzhou, are two brothers.
"I've met Arao-kun!" Saburo Yoshida bowed and saluted.
Arao Hikaru was very arrogant. He returned the bow slightly and sighed: "Yoshida-kun, you have been very busy recently, so please sit down and talk slowly."
Wearing a black brocade uniform, he completely blended into the ranks of the Chinese, and his voice was smooth and smooth, with no smell at all.
The two Japanese servants who followed brought a pot of sake and a plate of soy sauce beef on the stone table of the pavilion.
Arao Hikaru waved his hand for them to leave. Then, he poured two bottles of wine with his own hands and pushed one of the bottles to Saburo Yoshida who had just sat down. "Drink a few sips of sake first to relieve your fatigue."
"Thank you, Arao-kun."
Saburo Yoshida held up the wine bottle with both hands as a salute, then raised his hand and drank it in one gulp, and then showed the empty bottle with its bottom exposed as a salute.
He was polite and courteous in every move he made.
It just gives people a gloomy feeling, which makes people feel bad about it.
Therefore, the world gave him a nickname, Cold-faced Saburo.
After drinking the sake from the bottle, Yoshida stretched out his thick fingers, took a piece of soy sauce beef, put it into his mouth, chewed it, and after swallowing, he said slowly:
"I have completed all the matters that Your Excellency ordered."
"You shouldn't silence all those people. Even if they had no merit, they still had hard work."
Chapter completed!
