Chapter 94 Before the War Begins
After all, this world is a movie world. It is similar to real history, but not exactly the same. For example, at this time in history, Huang Feihong himself was over fifty years old, but now Huang Shaohong's soul is not even thirty years old when he wears this body.
Not even married yet.
In addition, according to real history, the Qing court at this time should have had the upper hand in the court with anti-foreign forces headed by Duanjun Wang Zaiyi, and they were in trouble with the foreigners.
But Huang Shaohong knows that in this movie world, this is not the case.
In addition to the quarrel between Boxing Boxing and the foreigners, the relationship between the Qing court and the foreigners was relatively harmonious on the surface. Even the "Lion King Conference" initiated by Li Hongzhang even specially invited ministers from various countries to watch the ceremony.
But even if there are some slight deviations, the main trend of history will not change. The Eight-Power Allied Forces' invasion of the capital cannot be avoided after all.
So Huang Shaohong simply kept Li Cunyi behind, and told him the truth, saying that foreigners could not only cause trouble in Tianjin. Looking at the current situation, the foreign devils would definitely attack the capital, and he planned to fight the foreigners in the capital.
After hearing Huang Shaohong's thoughts, Li Cunyi and Wang Wu's eyes lit up with blazing fire. They hated foreign devils deeply, so they naturally expressed their willingness to obey the chairman's orders.
Huang Shaohong calculated the date and couldn't help but frown. According to the plot of the movie, one month later will be the Lion King Conference. One month after the Lion King Conference, in order to paralyze the Qing government, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces will send the Eight-Nation Lion Team to challenge the Chinese Lion King. At that time
It was when the foreigners invaded the capital.
There are still two months left, and I haven't started much training yet. If I'm not prepared at all, I can't let the single-sword Li Cunyi and the big-sword Wang Wu fight the foreign muskets with steel knives.
He simply revealed that he had purchased firearms from the British and discussed military training with the two masters.
Li Cunyi originally looked down on Western firearms, but in the first battle with Lao Long, he saw countless boxers fall beside him. Among them, there were countless people who were proficient in martial arts, but they were unable to stop the enemy's firearms.
A small bullet, so I changed my inherent view and felt that foreign things also have merit.
The broadsword king Wu's vision had improved a lot when he met Tan Sitong as early as possible, and he had also seen the power of Western firearms.
The three of them hit it off immediately, and finally decided to add a "firearms class" to the daily teaching of the "Jingwu Sports Association"!
The firearms purchased by Huang Shaohong must not be exposed to light before taking action, otherwise it will definitely cause trouble.
Moreover, the content of the "Firearms Class" certainly cannot be live ammunition shooting. If the sound of firearms is heard in the capital, it is tantamount to seeking death.
Therefore, we can only find a carpenter to make the various parts of the breech-loading gun out of wood in a one-to-one ratio, and then assemble them together for the students to use for daily training. Another advantage of this is that even if they are discovered by the Qing court, they will not be able to
That's right, training with a wooden gun won't cause much trouble.
Huang Shaohong brought brothers from the militia to teach the students some theoretical things, such as loading, aiming, and firing. These basic things must be mastered, so that when the time comes to actually fight, it will be troublesome for these students to use muskets as fire sticks.
Already.
As for the training of darts, Li Cunyi proposed to focus on dart training, and Wang Zhengyi also agreed. As they said, concealed weapons and firearms all depend on hand-eye coordination, and naturally there are similarities.
Although Huang Shaohong thought it was a bit nonsense, he had no other solution, so he could only agree and then build some more darts and firearms for these students to use.
Ever since, after that, the ‘Jingwu Sports Association’ had an additional ‘firearms class’.
Speaking of which, I have to explain that because the "Ching Wu Sports Association" provides free teaching, there are many people who come to learn martial arts, and there are thousands of people registered.
Of course, due to space constraints, the Jingwu Club cannot accommodate so many people learning martial arts at the same time.
Fortunately, many of these people have jobs. Based on the experience of later cram schools, Huang Shaohong divided the teaching into three time periods: morning class, afternoon class, and evening class. This way he could cope with so many students who signed up to learn martial arts.
What Huang Shaohong meant was that soldiers should be more elite than more valuable. In addition to the disciples who belong to the martial arts community in the capital, he would select a thousand more reliable students to focus on training. However, he was too lazy to take care of these matters and left them all to those who have experience in teaching disciples.
Li Cunyi and Wang Wu did it.
Zhao Tianba agreed to Huang Shaohong's request without thinking, and honestly spent 50,000 silver dollars to ask the 'Jingwu Sports Association' to help him win the Lion King gold medal.
Huang Shaohong handed over this matter to Yan Zhendong. Lao Yan had been thinking about getting ahead all day long, and now he was very proud of being the vice president. Hearing that there was another chance to get ahead, he naturally agreed happily.
During the preparations for the Lion King Conference, two episodes occurred. One was that Thirteenth Aunt met her classmate when she was studying in the UK, the Russian Du Wenqi, who is now the Russian envoy to China.
Du Wenqi was somewhat interested in Aunt Thirteen, but Huang Shaohong had no idea about Aunt Thirteen because he was a soul piercer, and did not regard this person as a threat at all.
However, he remembered that Du Wenqi wanted to assassinate Li Hongzhang, and he could not ignore this matter. Before the Eight-Nation Allied Forces invaded the capital, he must not let things develop out of his control.
Another incident is that when Gui Jia Qi was in the Guangdong Guild Hall, seven or eight ribs were broken by Huang Shaohong's Foshan Wuying kick. Zhao Tianba threw him directly on the street and left him to fend for himself.
Later, Huang Qiying heard about this and couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked Zhu Zhurong to take Gui Jiaoqi to the Jingwu Club to help him set his bones and heal his injuries. He also took the "Eight Treasures Life-Saving Soup" to save his life.
Gui Jiao Qi was grateful for Huang Qiying's life-saving grace, so he simply stayed in the "Jingwu Club" to help, never complaining about the hard work.
When Huang Shaohong saw what he did, he knew that because of this injury, Gui Jiao Qi had tasted all the warmth and coldness of human kindness, so his temperament had changed and he was no longer as arrogant and crazy as before, so he took him into the Baozhilin portal and became his
Close disciple, he doesn't have too many such masters now.
A month passed in a blink of an eye, and the Lion King Conference was held. Yan Zhendong led a group of disciples, under the banner of Daping, and easily grabbed the Lion King gold medal.
When the Lion King Conference was coming to an end, the Russian spy Du Wenqi, who was the classmate of Thirteenth Aunt, wanted to assassinate Li Hongzhang with a musket in the dark. Before he could shoot, Huang Shaohong sent the Lion King Huma and snatched him away.
At that time, many people saw this incident, but in the end, no trace was found, and the incident had to be left undisturbed.
After the Lion King Competition, Zhao Tianba was so happy that he won the Lion King gold medal with just money and gave his own "Dapinghao Oil Factory" a name. He didn't have to be the villain himself, even though the five
The commission of ten thousand silver dollars made him feel a little sad, but it was nothing compared to the benefits it brought.
According to him, the day after he won the gold medal, Dapinghao's oil was selected by the Empress Dowager Cixi, who was in a good mood, as the designated oil for the royal cuisine. When the news spread, orders from the surrounding provinces flew in like snowflakes. After all, who wouldn't want to
She eats the same oil as the current Queen Mother, but she also loses face when it comes to talking about it, right?
Therefore, Zhao Tianba was very grateful to Huang Shaohong. He knew that without the other party's nod, the Jingwu Association would have won the Lion King on his own, and how could he get his turn. In gratitude, he offered another 10,000 silver dollars to express his feelings.
The Lion King Conference was over, and Huang Shaohong knew that time was running out, so he asked Wang Wu and Li Cunyi to hurry up and train the students and select manpower.
At this time, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces actually formed the Eight-Nation Lions to challenge the Qing court. In order to safeguard the state, the Qing court sent "Eight Banners General" Alan CD to take charge of this matter.
Alan CD found the "Ching Wu Club" and wanted to invite Yan Zhendong, who won the Lion King gold medal, to come out again to fight against the Eight Nations Lions.
As the president of the 'Jingwu Sports Association', Huang Shaohong flatly refused, joking, it's none of my business whether the Qing government is embarrassed or not. That night was when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded the capital. We don't have enough manpower ourselves. How can we let Lao Yan do it?
