    Opening the door, Shopkeeper Lan saw his woman curled up in the corner of the bed.  Not far from the wooden bed, four men wearing blue satin jackets were sitting.

    One of them is Huang Xingquan, the chief steward of the Huang Mansion.

    He was sitting there, fiddling with the safety of the box cannon with one hand, and tapping the tabletop gently with the other hand.  As for his three men, their eyes fell on shopkeeper Lan's wife from time to time.  Apparently shopkeeper Lan's wife's plump body was very attractive to them.

    Shopkeeper Lan walked up a few steps and said, "Manager Huang, I've already done what you asked me to do. Take a look"

    Huang Xingquan raised his head, put away the box cannon in his hand and said: "Shopkeeper Lan, you are a sensible person. I saw it just now, you did a good job."

    As he said that, he showed a kind smile, then took out more than ten pieces of gold from his pocket, and sprinkled it on the wooden table.

    Shopkeeper Lan felt uncomfortable hearing the crashing sound.  Everyone likes money, but the money that Manager Huang gave him made him feel that he was not blessed to enjoy it.

    He is a dedicated businessman, but this morning, Huang Xingquan broke into his room with several people.  She also threatened him that as long as he refused to do as Huang Xingquan said, he would drag his wife to Chahar Province and be the wife of the herdsmen there.

    Shopkeeper Lan naturally knew the Huang family's methods in Baoding City. Not to mention dragging his wife to Chahar Province and selling her, or even sending her to a brothel to be a brothel girl, he had no choice.  In the entire city of Baoding, everyone from the police station to the mayor has some friendship with Huang Jingyang.

    If Huang Jingyang wanted to kill him, it couldn't be easier.

    At this time, the gangsters brought by Huang Xingquan asked: "Manager Huang, are we leaving like this? What should we do with this bitch?"

    As soon as he heard this, Shopkeeper Lan knelt on the ground with a bang and said: "Manager Huang, you have to keep your word! I have already done what you asked me to do for you. You can't break your promise!"

    Manager Huang looked at the ruffians coldly and said, "Have you forgotten how your boss Lai Si'er died? If you want to play with women, go to the brothel!"

    After saying that, he took out a few silver coins from his pocket and threw them into the hands of the ruffians.

    When those ruffians saw the money, they immediately started to smile.  He nodded and bowed to Huang Xingquan and said, "I know you can make money by following Manager Huang."

    Manager Huang snorted coldly, put away the box of cannons and said: "Shop Manager Lan, you can't tell anyone what happened today! Otherwise, these brothers who are playing with women will not necessarily go to the brothel, but  Come to your home.¡±

    Shopkeeper Lan was frightened when he heard this, and responded hurriedly: "Yes, Manager Huang, don't worry, I will never tell anyone what happened today. No! Manager Huang, you have never been to my place today!"

    Seeing Shopkeeper Lan's performance, Huang Xingquan patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Shopkeeper Lan is a sensible person! I won't bother you here anymore. You two have been together for a hundred years." After saying that, he glanced around and returned the message.  The boss lady huddled in the corner.

    After Manager Huang and the others left, his wife got up from the bed, hugged Shopkeeper Lan, and began to cry in his arms.

    Shopkeeper Lan asked: "Daughter-in-law, they didn't do anything to you, right?"

    His wife shook her head and said: "No, no, that manager Huang has been taking care of them! Otherwise, those ruffians will definitely not let me go."

    Xia Yang yawned loudly. He was woken up by the sound of morning exercises.

    Today is August 12th, and four days have passed since I bid farewell to Dai Caixi.  Xia Yang roughly calculated that the "August 13th Incident" would break out tomorrow.

    However, on this day, there was no large-scale head-on conflict between the Japanese army and the Chinese army stationed in Shanghai.  Starting on August 14th, the Japanese army began to officially launch a large-scale attack on the Songhu area.

    It¡¯s not that he didn¡¯t think about informing the National Government at that time in advance, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that it was completely redundant.

    After all, the current government, after the "July 7th Incident", has already prepared against the Japanese.  Before the Battle of Songhu broke out, the Nationalist Government had consciously begun to increase its troops to the Songhu area. At that time, almost all the direct troops of the Central Army were near Nanjing and the Songhu area.

    Even if the Japanese army did not launch the "August 13th Incident", Xia Yang believed that the upper echelons of the national army would definitely attack the Japanese troops stationed in the Japanese Concession in Shanghai.  Those little devils??He rushed to the Yangtze River to feed the fish.

    In fact, before the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack on Shanghai, the Chinese army had already launched several attacks on the Japanese Concession in Shanghai.

    But in the subsequent Battle of Songhu, although the Chinese soldiers fought bloody battles, they still lost to the Japanese.  Their failure is almost inevitable, because Japan's current comprehensive national strength is far from being comparable to that of China, which is now poor and weak.

    At this time, Japan had a complete industrial system.  They can independently build battleships and even aircraft carriers.  Aircrafts, tanks and artillery are not to mention.

    But at this time, China¡¯s industry could only imitate cars or something.  Aircraft and tanks are mainly purchased from abroad.

    The reason why the German weapon masters, who have the strongest combat effectiveness, are strong in combat effectiveness is because they are all equipped with equipment assisted by the Germans.  Because of these sophisticated weapons, their combat effectiveness is far beyond that of other local troops equipped with medium and formal rifles.

    In terms of comprehensive national strength, the gap between China and Japan, which has gone through the baptism of the second industrial revolution, is too far.

    Xia Yang is now more worried about whether Dai Caixi can remember his words and retreat from Nanjing in time.  If you retreat too late, the consequences will be disastrous.

    At this time, Cai Heyuan ran over from outside.

    Since this kid became Xia Yang's messenger, he hasn't improved much, but his running speed has become faster and faster.

    Cai Heyuan said: "Report to the group, some people are coming outside."

    Xia Yang said: "People? Who are they?"

    Cai Heyuan said: "It's Chang Shouli, the mayor of Baoding, and Zhang Huaili, the county magistrate. He said he came to comfort our fourth group and brought several carts of beef."

    Xia Yang frowned as soon as he heard the "Eternal Life Gift".

    Although he has never seen this person before, he has heard his name repeatedly.

    This man is the mayor of Baoding City, and his brother is none other than Chang Qingshan, who had hit a snag with him before.  This man came to his camp and said he was here to comfort the brothers of the Fourth Regiment, but he would not believe it even if he was killed.

    "The weasel has no good intentions when it comes to wishing the rooster a New Year greeting. If he leaves the things behind, he will drive them away! Just say that the leader of the group is not here," Xia Yang said.

    But Cai Heyuan said: "Tuanzu, this time, even if you don't see me, you will still see me." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
