An Yi's wish to get drunk did not come true. At 1:30 in the afternoon on June 16, a Japanese brigade of about 5,000 people disembarked at Tianjin Port. The specific number of the Japanese army is unknown, but it is equipped with tanks and artillery.
, light and heavy machine guns, should be an elite force, but its specific intentions and where it is headed are still unclear.
At present, the Seventeenth Army of the Anjia Army is on high alert, and all divisions in North China have entered a war-ready state, ready to respond to all possible crises.
As soon as An Yi arrived at the Sanjiang Restaurant, he received a telegram from the North China Intelligence Station and Hu Jialin. He immediately got back in the car and rushed to the Anjia Army Headquarters, and urgently ordered all the generals in the Xufu, except the groom Lin Yaodong, to arrive within an hour.
Then report in, analyze the situation, and conduct tactical deductions.
In the small building of Lao Shoudao in Xiyuan, after listening to Gong Qian's explanation of An Yi's opinions, Lao Shoudao sighed: "This kid is so careless about his own affairs. Well, since he wants to leave the matter to be resolved later
, old man, I will grant his wish, but before that I have to leave a thought for others so as not to do anything drastic."
At this point, Lao Shoudao turned to Gong Qian: "Girl, are you almost forty years old? I see that you have been very worried recently. Sometimes you are always alone in a daze. Is there something on your mind? Is this brat sorry for you? Tell me
I, I will teach him a lesson!"
Gong Qian's face turned red: "Uncle Dao, why do you say that? How could such a thing happen?"
The old Taoist shook his head: "Beauties have been like famous generals since ancient times. They are not allowed to grow old in the world! Girl, you are a good girl. I understand your thoughts... Alas! I have been busy working on this matter recently, and now I have finally achieved results. Shang
It’s a comfort.”
The excitement on Lao Shoudao's face was more of a sign of pride: "My Taoist family has left countless prescriptions, although most of them are absurd and cannot withstand scrutiny, but a small number of them do have very good curative effects. Nowadays in Xiangxi,
The eighteen new medicines launched by the three major pharmaceutical companies in Xufu and Southern Yunnan are the crystallization of my Taoist medical skills. Among the countless prescriptions, there is one medicine that is the secret of my Taoist school.
The effect is miraculous, but it is a pity that the medicine required for it is very rare. It has been continuously consumed for a hundred years, and our Taoist sect has no remaining medicine left.
"Two months ago, Ziyan led a special team to go deep into the Duwu Mountain at the junction of French Annan and Shangliao to survey the topography. Unexpectedly, they were attacked by a giant python. Two team members died on the spot. The news came back
When I arrived in southern Yunnan, I immediately realized that there was hope for refining the elixir, so I asked Xia Jian to organize people and sneak into Duwu Mountain again. I also went there together. Through the telescope, I found that the giant python was agile and had a waist bigger than that of a farmer.
The rice-pot was even bigger and had at least a thousand years of Taoism, so I knew I had found a treasure.
"That's right, this kind of elixir requires the gallbladder of a thousand-year-old python. China's Yellow River and Yangtze River basins have been developed for thousands of years. Even the remote areas of Lingnan and southwest have been developed by the Chinese for hundreds of years.
The footprints of the nation are all over the world. Before guns and guns were used on a large scale, you could occasionally find such magical objects, but they have disappeared long ago. At least our Taoist sect has never received this information. I didn’t expect that this time it would be in the wild south.
We found traces of it everywhere. After careful planning and dispatching hundreds of people, we finally succeeded in killing the giant python and retrieved the gallbladder of the python. Our Taoist Medicine King Palace includes Master Songjian, who is known as the national expert in Xinglin.
A total of ten Dharma protectors were all dispatched and gathered at the Wanshou Palace in southern Yunnan. After half a month of refining, they finally obtained 136 pills, of which 36 pills were given to Taoists, and the rest were given away in the first two days.
It’s in my hands.”
Gong Qian's eyes widened. As southern Sichuan has made great achievements in economic and cultural construction, and science and civilization have become more and more popular among the people, Lao Shoudao, a magic stick, actually dropped such news, which Gong Qian couldn't accept for a while. .
However, out of respect for the experienced Taoist, Gong Qian did not refute him immediately, but asked: 'Uncle Tao, I don't know what the effect of this medicine is? Why do you say it is related to me?"
The old Taoist gently twirled his beard and said with some pride: "This elixir is called 'Dingyan Dan'. It has the wonderful effect of beautifying the face and keeping the various functions of the body in the same state as when taking it. I, the Taoist master of all generations, are all Live longer and have rosy skin when you die. If you look at someone in their thirties, they will have the power of this elixir and Taoist immortality and rejuvenation. Girl Qian, if you are not afraid of the old Taoists lying to you, take a pill today and take it before going to bed. Take it and you will see significant effects after half a month.”
Gong Qian was surprised and happy, and her heart was beating fast. For a woman, especially a beautiful woman whose years are passing and her youth is no longer there, what is more attractive than her eternal beauty?
Under Gong Qian's longing eyes, Lao Shoudao got up and went upstairs. When he came downstairs again, he already had a small green bottle made of finely carved jade in his hand.
Gong Qian took the jade bottle that was two fingers thick and opened the cork that sealed the mouth of the bottle. Immediately, a strong aroma spurted out and quickly filled the air. It didn't take long for the entire space to be enveloped in a strange aroma. The spirit was lifted.
The aroma is refreshing, refreshing both physically and mentally, and it seems to have the effect of cutting hair and cleansing marrow. Gong Qian just leaned to the mouth of the bottle and smelled it, and she felt comfortable all over. A warmth rose from the soles of her feet and circulated along with her blood vessels. It spread throughout the body, and the fatigue accumulated due to busy work in the past few days was swept away.
Almost instantly, Gong Qian knew how extraordinary this pill was, and subconsciously plugged the mouth of the bottle with a cork, fearing that if the aroma leaked out more, the efficacy of the medicine would be weakened.
The old Taoist smiled and said: "How is it? It feels very unique! The fragrance just now mainly comes from Tianshan Snow Lotus. The minimum age of Tianshan Snow Lotus used in medicine is more than a hundred years. Fortunately, now there is a means of transportation like airplane, otherwise it would have to be It takes a lot of time to transport fresh Tianshan snow lotus from Xinjiang, and its efficacy will be greatly reduced.
"I have already thought about how to distribute the pills. In addition to your pill, Chu'er and Jieyun each have one pill, and Ye Qing's girl also has one. Xiaoyi will naturally be indispensable. Hu Tou, Xia Jian, Yang Bin, Cheng Guang and the others all have one pill. Yes, but I can't control whether they use it for themselves or give it to their families. In addition, tonight I'm going to visit the old patriarch of Lin Village and give two pills to the Lin family girls. I can't keep people waiting, no. Any expressions are welcome. The rest I will carefully save for future use."
Gong Qian nodded and reminded carefully: "Uncle Dao, if the effect of this medicine is really as great as you said, it is estimated that there will be many people fighting for it by then. Even our internal generals, I am worried that they will be killed due to unfair distribution. It leads to psychological imbalance and many twists and turns out of thin air. So Uncle Dao, you'd better put yourself aside from this matter completely. Don't say that you made this medicine, and blame everything on the Taoist secret medicine that has been passed down for thousands of years. Yes The more rumors there are, the less credible they become. If we add more fuel and jealousy, naturally no one will pay attention to it!"
Lao Shoudao is old and mature, so he still doesn't know what Gong Qian means? He smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, the South Yunnan Longevity Palace is built at the foot of Nanping Mountain in the southeast of Simao City. In front is the rippling Meizi Lake, and on the left is the confidentiality level
The highest pharmaceutical factory in southern Yunnan, with the training base of the southern Yunnan special service troops on the right, there is absolutely no problem in terms of security. This medicine refining was carried out in absolute secrecy, and the total number of people who knew about it would not exceed fifteen people.
"My brothers and sisters studied medicine and were indifferent and happy-go-lucky by nature. The Longevity Palace in Zhenwu Mountain in Xufu was built. Master Songjian praised it after moving in. He said that the feng shui of this place was excellent and that it was full of spiritual energy. It was really a good place for cultivating the mind and character, so he put the medicine there.
The entire Wangdian Palace was moved here from Jiangxi. The Xu Mansion is our base camp, and no one can cause trouble with the Daomen without alerting the army and intelligence agencies. There are also Xia Jian, Zhengliang and the others, who went to Duwu Mountain to slaughter pythons just
In order to avenge my dead brother, I never thought that I would use the snake's gallbladder for other purposes.
"This time I will deliver the medicine quietly in the name of forming a good relationship with the Taoists. I will ask them to keep it secret so that Xiaoyi will not be implicated."
Gong Qian laughed. She finally had an intuitive understanding of the old Taoist's caution and decided not to look for trouble. She stood up and left with the jade bottle. At this time, she couldn't wait to go home and take this pill.
This pill has been exaggerated by experts to be magical. Just think that after taking this pill, you will always maintain your current bright appearance and no longer suffer the pain of aging beauty, and your heart will tremble.
Lao Shoudao did not hold back. After watching Gong Qian leave, he also stood up and started to tidy up his clothes. He decided to go to the street to buy some specialties of Xufu, which would be useful when he visited the old patriarch of Lincun in the evening. Although An Yi decided not to consider it for the time being.
It is a life-long event for the two sisters Lin Xiaoran and Lin Xiaotong, but as elders, Taoism is far more important than others think. It is related to An Yi's career and the future anti-Japanese situation. The interests of North America must not be given up lightly, nor can the control of Hong Kong and Nanyang underworld.
Relax, and the link that connects all of this is the Lincun people, so how to win over the hearts of the Lincun people, Lao Shoudao really put a lot of thought into it.
In the Anjia Army Headquarters, telegrams about the movements of the Japanese troops in Tianjin came one after another.
After a short rest, the Japanese army began to march north as a whole, and it was initially determined that its target was Beiping City.
The garrison troops in North China had different reactions: Han Fuqu continued his campaign to "clear out the communist forces and years of banditry" in various parts of Shandong, and did not pay too much attention to the newly arrived Japanese troops in Tianjin; Wan Fulin was stationed in southern Hebei, and there were ten
The Seventh Army acted as a security barrier and therefore did not make any war preparations; the Jinsui Army, with the cooperation of the Northeastern Army Wang Yizhe's Department, the Central Army's Hu Zongnan and Guan Lin's Zhengdong Department, chased the Red Army's ass and beat them hard, and did not launch any defense against the Japanese army.
The most bizarre military action was the response of the 29th Army. Logically speaking, Song Zheyuan, as the chairman of Hebei Province and shouldering the important task of guarding the safety of northern Hebei and Pingjin, should have responded to the Japanese actions.
However, the divisions under his command showed no signs of entering a state of emergency, and they still entered Kuma and released Nanshan with swords and guns, and there was no sign of anything unusual at all.
"Now I finally understand why Japanese military and political officials visited so frequently some time ago. It seems that Song Zheyuan had some secret agreement or agreement with the Japanese army in private, so there was no response. Obviously, the 29th Army has acquiesced to the Japanese army going north.
Settled in Peiping!" Ye Cheng sighed.
Gu Changfeng's drunkenness was not gone yet, he blushed and cursed: "I don't like Song Zheyuan's grandson. He has an army of 100,000 people and the equipment is not bad, but he allowed the Kwantung Army to enter the front line of the Great Wall.
The Japanese garrison was allowed to enter Peiping and Tianjin, gradually encroaching on our territory. Our 17th Army was supporting him. As long as he acted a little tougher, the Japanese invaders would not be so rampant. It seems that during the Great Wall War of Resistance,
The bloody spirit has been wiped away. Now Song Zheyuan has completely reduced to a warlord who only knows how to protect his own interests. He can only compromise with the Japanese army for fear of offending the Japanese and causing disaster. I think he is the second Zhang Xueliang!
"
An Yi did not reprimand Gu Changfeng for not caring about the overall situation this time. He stroked his forehead and said painfully: "I'm just worried about Song Zheyuan's mentality. There is a saying that if you have no desires, you will be strong. If you have desires and scruples, this person will not be able to let go. We
Isn't it the same? However, in the face of big right and wrong, there must be no ambiguity, let alone small mistakes and big compromises. Once concessions become a habit, it is not so easy to regain confidence. You have led troops for so many years, you should be very clear
!If one day the Japanese invaders give Song Zheyuan another verbal promise to paralyze the soldiers of the 29th Army, but secretly deploy troops to encircle them, the 29th Army will be in danger of being annihilated in a snap, and the consequences will be disastrous!"
"What should I do?" Liu Qing asked anxiously.
The generals looked at An Yi, who sighed dejectedly: "What else can we do? Song Zhe Yuan is a higher official than me. He can refuse orders from the central government and doesn't bother us at all. It's useless to say anything at this time.
We can only rely on Huzi and the others!"
There was silence in the headquarters. Everyone was frightened by the scene described by An Yi. If that day comes, how should the 17th Army, which is the first to bear the brunt, respond?
