"Hey, Fourth Master is here. Please come upstairs. Staff Officer Jin and Chief Wang have been waiting for you upstairs for a long time."

The two leading soldiers of the Third Division and the Twelfth Regiment who were guarding the gate of Taibaiju immediately bowed and greeted Li Siqin with smiles on their faces.

"You two bosses have worked hard, Ma Shun, let me buy tea bags for you two bosses with one yuan each."

Li Siqin cupped his hands, opened the folding fan and went straight upstairs.

Listening to the deputy manager's instructions, Ma Shun curled his lips inwardly, smiled, handed over two pieces of silver, and followed him with a bang.

"Thank you Fourth Master, thank you Fourth Master"

The two top soldiers happily held Yin Yang in their arms and talked about the good things about Fourth Master, as if Li Siji was their immediate boss.

In the past more than half a month, the title Fourth Master has long been spread among the soldiers in Xuzhou City. Among other things, Mr. Li from the Xuzhou Public Works Bureau is bold and generous, and his marksmanship is even better.

He didn't say anything about it. Some unconvinced officers in the division competed with him in marksmanship, long and short spears, and he was good at everything. In his hands, no one took advantage. And more importantly, he didn't say anything about how he treated his brothers in a friendly manner.

From now on, Longhai's affairs will be his own business. Will Fourth Master treat me badly?

Won't.

The staff officer of the 12th Regiment has the image of a literary man, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. If he hadn't been wearing a military uniform, people who didn't know would have thought he was a foreign student. Foreign students are indeed true. He died two years ago

At that time, he was not just a foreign student, but now, wearing this military uniform, he actually showed a bit of military spirit.

"Captain Wang, tell me, this matter..."

Muttering, Fang Yanjing seemed a little hesitant. If his brother hadn't treated him well, he wouldn't have been willing to dip into this pond anyway.

"Let me know what he says and see what he says."

Wang Yifa was drinking tea. He was in his thirties. He was from the New Army. He was tough and powerful, and he spoke with a loud voice. This showed a bit of the temperament of a soldier, but he gave others the impression that he was more like a bandit.

.

"Brother Wang, Third Brother Fang and Si Qin have met these two brothers."

Li Siqin opened the curtain and entered the private room. Li Siqin, with a smile on his face, immediately clasped his fists and said.

"Brother Si Qin, sit down, sit down quickly"

Fang Yanjing said, while Wang Yifa said lazily.

"I said, Fourth Brother, you are too polite all day long. I am not talking about you, but we brothers should not be so polite when we are together."

"My brother doesn't remember differences, how can I, a brother, lose my etiquette?"

While joking, Li Siqin sat down and looked at his two sworn brothers with a smile. He was about to find them, but who would have thought that they came to find him first. Unlike others, the 12th Regiment did not have a leader.

, Fang Yanjing, the former regimental commander’s staff officer, is acting as the regimental commander, and Wang Yifa’s third battalion is the only fully-staffed battalion in the entire third division. It is different from the Hanyang-made battalions used by other battalions.

This third battalion all uses one-color Mauser rifles.

"I wonder why the two brothers invited the younger brother to come?"

Looking at his little brother, Fang Yanjing glanced at Wang Yifa, and after he nodded, he lowered his voice.

"Little brother, you usually have nothing to say to me and Yifa, my two brothers. If anything happens, I don't know if you will tell me, this is my brother..."

When Fang Yanjing was talking there, Wang Yifa interjected from the side.

"Okay, Lao Fang, stop beating around the bush, we brothers are not benders, so let's just say it straight."

Could something really happen?

"That's right, there was a meeting in the division this morning."

"Meeting?"

"The teacher said, you are all bandits in Longhai"

"What"

Fang Yanjing's words only surprised Li Siqin.

"Two brothers, we..."

"Fourth brother, if you have a relationship with your brothers, don't we, the elders, know that collaborating with bandits is just a pretext. You, Chairman Li, are so rich that you can rival the country, so why do you need to collude with bandits?"

Fang Yanjing said, but Wang Yifa told the truth.

"Come on, there are no gangsters. It's just that Leng wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail your chairman. We brothers have a good relationship. You usually treat your brothers well. This matter... please inform your chairman.

Things are tense between the north and the south recently. I asked your chairman to go to Tianjin, but not to Shanghai. Maybe your chairman is waiting for you in Shanghai. Go hide in the Tianjin Concession. Your chairman has a good relationship with President Yuan. I want to come..."

"If you want to incriminate yourself, why bother without words"

Slapping the table hard, Li Siqin uttered a word with grief and anger on his face.

"Ah Si, on behalf of our young master, I would like to thank my two brothers."

After saying that, Li Siqin bowed deeply to Fang Yanjing and Wang Yifa.

"Look at you...hey..."

Fang Yanjing sighed, not to mention that other people couldn't stand this, even his old alliance couldn't stand it, what a bandit, some people just want to extract a sum of money from Liuhe, why extract that sum of money, isn't it just for the sake of it?

…

"Okay, Ah Si, don't be polite. Thinking about it, in a few days, I guess... you'd better send a telegram to your chairman and ask him to go to the Tianjin Concession to avoid the limelight."

Wang Yifa followed up and said.

"We brothers, I'm afraid we won't be able to drink together for a while, hey..."

"A shelter from the limelight?"

Li Siqin forced out a wry smile, and then sighed.

"Where can we get away? You don't know the young master. He is the kind of person who "wasn't born in the concession."

"Would you like to be born in the concession?"

"In the final analysis, the concession is a place where foreigners live in China. How can the young master enter the concession and bring humiliation to himself? That's why the young master will promise to never enter the concession in the future."

"this……"

Wang Yifa suddenly became speechless, and looked at each other with Fang Yanjing. The two of them smiled bitterly. Li Zhiyuan's temper was quite tough, but the problem was...

"Two brothers"

Looking up at the two brothers, Li Siqin's expression became solemn.

"Since the two brothers know clearly that the crime of "collaborating with bandits" is just a crime committed by Leng Yuqiu, why..."

“Brother Ah Si, it’s hard to disobey military orders.”

"This is chaos"

"Can……"

"Two brothers, no matter why he gave this chaotic fate, he could give this chaotic fate immediately. As human beings, how can the two brothers be willing to accept this chaotic fate?"

While asking in reply, Li Siqin looked at the two brothers in front of him, casually took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it over.

"this……"

Fang Yanjing and Wang Yifa were stunned when they saw the piece of paper. It was a check, a check for fifty thousand yuan.

"This is to express my respect for the righteous deeds of the two brothers, and I ask my brother to accept them."

Fang Yanjing and Wang Yifa quickly stood up and waved their hands hurriedly.

"How good is this? I don't dare, I really don't dare."

This money is a good thing, but this money is also hot. As the saying goes, it is good to receive a reward for nothing. If you inform me about it, it is for the feelings between brothers, but if you accept this huge sum of money...

"Brother, what are you doing? Are you looking down on your brother so much? If so, it's better not to have this brotherly relationship."

Li Siqin stood up in the face of the two people's delay, but said sincerely.

"The two brothers have worked hard since the Revolution of 1911, but their lives have been hard. Our chairman can't bear it. How can we treat the heroes poorly? Therefore, we have long planned to make friends with the two brothers. Our chairman specially ordered Asiwu I will give this money to my two brothers, but please don’t refuse.”

Fang Yanjing and Wang Yifa looked at each other and vaguely guessed what the money was. After thinking about it for a while, Wang Yifa said enthusiastically.

"Okay, if we two brothers don't accept it, we will be disrespectful of the compliments. And Brother Ah Si told Chairman Li that I won't thank you for your kindness. If you can find anything useful, just speak up."

Looking at Fang Yanjing, Wang Yifa said again.

"From now on, Chairman Li will be the only one of my number 600 brothers in the third battalion to follow the lead."

"this……"

Fang Yanjing first looked at the check and then at Wang Yifa. The two of them were here in the morning and had already discussed it. Looking at the fourth child, no, it depends on what Longhai plans to do. Although Wang Yifa meant that in the morning, he didn't No matter how you agree, but sometimes, people have to make some choices.

"Leng Yuqiu's actions to cause trouble to the local area are not what our soldiers want. If Leng Yuqiu insists on going his own way, our soldiers will not be willing to be driven by him."

"What nonsense are you talking about? If Leng Yuqiu really wants to launch an army and cause chaos, then we, the men, will give you military advice."

Wang Yi uttered a sentence in a cold voice. In fact, since this night, his mind has been open for a long time. When a soldier eats food, he will eat everyone's food. Yuan Shikai doesn't care about him, but here in the south , and knowing clearly that it is death, rather than sitting there and dying, it is better to find a way to survive, maybe...

Listening to Wang Yifa's words, Li Siqin smiled in his heart. This time he came to Xuzhou, the young master gave him 600,000 yuan, which was averaged to each soldier, almost 100 yuan per head. Originally, he wanted to wait, but now Since Leng Yuqiu is planning to attack the chairman, there is no need to do so.
