Chapter 26 Calling the Police

Chen Mu could feel the oppression brought to the military households by the Japanese pirates' entry into Guangdong.

In his previous life, he never thought that the Japanese pirates in this era was a big deal. He even heard that dozens of Japanese pirates fought thousands of miles southeast, and they were all attacking and plundering and robbing, and they still felt like a joke. But when he reached this era, he truly felt how much pressure the countless people living on this land could invade dozens and hundreds of armed pirates at any time.

He had never experienced ancient wars, but the battle at Heiling made him understand that fighting is not a paper number. You are one soldier and I am the other, and you are the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who

This is not true.

I killed you one person, and you three others were scared. I rushed up and killed another one, and the last two were about to escape. I could chase after you and chop one to catch up and grab one.

On the battlefield, people are really arrogant and powerful.

Just like Qingyuanwei, if you want to produce, harvest grain, crush rice, think about gunpowder, and armor, you have to send military households to protect the fields and important roads within a radius of twenty or thirty miles. Japanese pirates don’t need to consider these, they just need to kill and rob, which is enough.

There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, but they are doing this now.

The second day after Fu Yuan left Anyuan Station, Bai Yuanjie sent someone to send two black balls with leads from Qingyuan Guard. Bai Qi said that this thing was called "Five Miles Mist". When he found out that the enemy situation, he ignited the lead and could emit a lot of smoke, which could make military households along the way report to the garrison station for preparation. He also specifically told him that the smoke from the fog ball was poisonous, and if it was ignited, he would quickly ride a horse and run away.

One of more than a dozen enemies lost, and two of hundreds of enemies lost.

As for how the enemy should be thousands of enemies, Chen Mu did not ask, Bai Qi did not say anything. Not to mention that there were no possibility of thousands of Japanese pirates, even if there were thousands of riots, according to the conduct of the Qingyuan Guards, three times of the troops could not be defeated, so just run away as soon as possible.

Shao Tingda no longer makes jokes and says those useless words. Except for the nervous Xixi who came back from duty at Feishui Bridge, she practiced her knife in the inn yard. Even in her spare time, she would sit at the door and grind her goose feather knife over and over again, sharpening the knife so bright that it could not be seen at all rust.

In the middle, he also took leave to Chen Mu, went to Qingyuan City, and bought a new knife on Phoenix Street. The reason for buying the knife was that he heard Shi Qi, who was telling the storyteller, quickly and sharply mentioned the Japanese pirate's knife, and was worried that the old knife would not be used.

Chen Mu knew that Shao Tingda, who showed his willfulness and courage, was actually afraid. Who could not be afraid? Chen Mu himself was actually even more afraid. In the era when he lived in the past, Chinese culture declined, but instead, the island's cultural output was fierce. To a certain extent, Japanese samurai and Viking pirates were called the most ferocious warriors with force.

In the past, Chen Mu could talk about the heroic posture of his ancestors, Han and Tang samurai - but Chen Mu also knew clearly that he was not an opponent.

He thought about digging the cave for a long time, and often looked up and looked at the cave not far from the post station, but he dared not go. If the Japanese pirates really came, he did not want to leave his back to the enemy at the beginning when both sides discovered each other. He hoped to aim the muskets at these invaders from the sea on the high wall of the post station, and kill the most fierce leader when a loud bang of gunpowder filled his eyes.

Even if the Japanese pirates are real Japanese, they will not be all warriors, but the leader must be the best in martial arts.

What would it feel like to use a lead pill to kill a warrior who has been trained to kill people since childhood?

Chen Mu wants to give it a try.

But there was no chance. The wait was worried and boasted and exhausted Chen Mu's energy. For a whole month and a half, as winter arrived, Qingyuan Guard continued to explore horses and send news from the Guangdong Dushi to the various guard posts near the garrison. A large number of Japanese pirates landed on the Daxingjian in Huizhou Prefecture, and could not fight against Pinghai. Then they plundered Guishan to be driven away by the Ming army, and the remaining parties scattered to all places. The police were sent to Zengcheng, Guangzhou Prefecture, and Maotian was looted. Conghua County, which was only seventy or eighty miles away from Qingyuan Guard, also heard warnings. When the general led the army to encircle and suppress the enemy, he disappeared.

The postman Ke Ze'er was in panic all day long. He knelt at the Buddha statue every day and muttered something like the words of the Supreme Lord, such as the law, which attracted Chen Mu to ridicule.

This kid is too undevoted. Even if there are gods and Buddhas, he will not bless such superstitions.

Shiqi was much more straightforward than the gods and Buddhas. He put the bird gun in front of Ke Ze'er with a clang, "When you worship the gun now, this thing can bless you more than a Buddha statue; if it really doesn't work, go and worship my little flag, which is much more effective than this!"

There is no more truth than this.

Fu Yuan really got Chen Mu back the bird gun. He only used one or four cents of silver to buy a Japanese gun from the hands of Mr. Li, a gambling man under the Qianhu of Wei Qi. It cannot be said that he was buying it. After all, they made an agreement that if Mr. Li had money in his hands in April next year, Chen Mu would return the Japanese gun in its original form. But no matter what, this Japanese gun is now Chen Mu's weapon.

Chen Mu gave the original bird gun to Shi Qi. There was no way, Fu Yuan would not use the gun, so Chen Mu rewarded him with five cents of silver.

Mr. Li basically never fired the Japanese gun. The gun barrel was well maintained, but the wooden handle was not far from decay. Chen Mu asked the Guan family father and son to work for him to work with a wooden gun bed and tie it with five iron hoops again. The entire Japanese gun looked like a new one.

Just look a little ugly.

Due to restrictions on material use, Guan Yuangu could only use wood near Anyuan Station to make a gun bed. There was still moisture in the wood, not to mention that there was no oil painting, which made the new gun bed not look so beautiful.

Chen Mu didn't care about this. After the Japanese invasion, he would go to Guangzhou Prefecture to buy new guns. Now he was thinking about one thing. When this incident passed, he would take advantage of the ward in winter and take advantage of his idleness to take over. He would select five or six people from his family, such as Old Man Zheng and Shao Tingda's family, to summon them to Anyuan Station, go to the cave to command them to boil the salt, and send people to Guangzhou Prefecture to sell them in the spring.

As November begins, the weather is already very cold. Although the winter in Lingnan is not as cold as in the north, the biting wind seems to be unstoppable by the worn-out armor. Fortunately, Chen Mu was foresighted and exchanged rice and grain for a new jacket to put it outside, otherwise this life would be really not easy.

Even so, every day when I wake up, the moisture on my jacket makes me feel sticky and sticky, but I can't get out of water, which makes me feel very uncomfortable.

Just when Chen Mu thought the invasion of the Japanese pirates had passed, he was about to call his subordinate Yu Ding to the cave to mine the nitrate soil. On that day, he suddenly heard the police from the garrison. Riders rode their horses and rushed over. Early in the morning, they were beating the gong outside the Anyuan Station and shouting loudly. When Chen Mu went out, he heard the urgent news of the horse detective, and his face turned pale.
