his robbery

Chapter 153 The end of the war

Bai Mani sat on the chair, lowered his head and slowly ate the peaches.It has been three days since he left Bo County, and he followed Lian Yi to a county town at the junction of Anhui and Henan. After recovering from this breath, Lian Yi didn't say whether he would continue to attack or continue to defend. Eyebrows.

The peaches are ripe, and they are a big bag of honey water that is red and heavy.Bai Mani just took a bath and changed into a snow-white silk trousers and coat, so he ate carefully and paid close attention to hygiene.Bending down and putting his elbows on his knees, he tore the peach skin bit by bit, tearing it meticulously, and eating it carefully. It was a slow-motion silent movie, which was formed with the yelling in the next room. sharp contrast.

Across the wall, Lian Yi was furious, and his target was Li Ziming.Lian Yi was besieged by the Central Army in Bo County for nearly three months. Li Ziming led his troops outside and did nothing. Lian Yi didn't say anything, but was angry in his heart.I just didn't know which sentence Li Ziming said wrong again, which aroused his anger, so the new and old grudges were counted together, and the room immediately became a battlefield.While Bai Mani was sucking the peach juice, he heard Lian Yi beating tables and stools outside, roaring and screaming.Li Ziming was also defending. At first, his voice was weak and intermittent, and he couldn't speak. Later, when he was scolded by Lian Yi, he suddenly burst into a high-pitched voice like a child: "Can you blame me?"

Then he had nothing else to say, only yelling this sentence one after another.The result of the questioning was an earth-shattering ding ding bang bang, obviously Lian Yi copied the guy.

Bai Mani was unmoved, and continued to eat the peaches slowly.The peaches were too big, and he couldn't eat them all. Feeling full, he gave orders through the half-open glass window, and asked the orderly guarding outside to bring him a wet towel.

After wiping his hands and face, he got up leaning on his cane.When he reached the door and lifted the curtain, he looked out.The outer room was empty, originally there was only a set of tables and chairs, but now the tables were neither tables nor chairs, Li Ziming knelt in a pile of wooden slats with a frown, his facial features seemed a little out of place, and he knelt with dissatisfaction.And Lian Yi stood aside with his hands on his hips, panting heavily at him condescendingly.

Bai Mani observed his words, thinking that it was time for him, a peacemaker, to step out, so he walked to Lian Yi's side step by step, and said with a soft smile, "Old Feng, calm down, your anger will hurt your body and hair."

Lian Yi knew that he was here to persuade him to fight, but he didn't expect that he would pull it on his head, so he couldn't help laughing, and raised his hand to stroke his back.Just now when he performed martial arts in the room, he couldn't help shaking his head and tail, but his head and hair broke free from the shackles of the pomade, and they went about their own way in disorder.

Seeing that he was smiling, Bai Mani quickly poked Li Ziming on the ground with his cane, letting him take the opportunity to say something soft and find a step to get off.However, Li Ziming is a stubborn guy, and he doesn't accept his favor, preferring to continue kneeling on the wooden stick—maybe it's justified, so I'm really wronged.

Bai Mani coaxed Lian Yi into the inner room, fearing that he would mess around with his temper and break Li Ziming again.Although Li Ziming was always indifferent to him, he never harmed him.Seeing him as an eyesore, Bai Mani thought to himself that he could bear not to bully him, thinking that Li Ziming was enough for him.

Lian Yi angrily followed Bai Mani back to the back room. After more than an hour, he yelled in the back room and told Li Ziming to get out.Li Ziming stood up while leaning against the wall, and this was considered an amnesty.

In the evening, the three of them gathered again at the dinner table.Lian Yi had calmed down, and sat smilingly as the chief inspected the food. After looking at it, he suddenly rubbed his hands and said to himself, "Hey? Why is there no fish?"

Bai Mani stirred the soup and water in the small bowl, and said with a lazy smile, "Ziming is not a cat. If he doesn't have fish for a meal, can he still be hungry?"

Lian Yi ignored it, and ordered the little orderly in the house to run to the kitchen, and immediately asked the chef to add a dish of fish.And before the fish was served, he didn't move his chopsticks, and he didn't allow Bai Mani to eat or drink formally, and accompanied Li Ziming to wait for the fish.Bai Mani sucked the small spoon, then smiled at Lian Yi and asked, "Old Feng, why bother to come? You slap people in the afternoon and flatter you in the evening. You don't feel ashamed at such an age."

Lian Yi raised his hand and patted Li Ziming's shoulder, and said to Bai Mani with a smile: "Beating is love, scolding is love. Can Ziming still remember me?"

Having said that, he withdrew his hands and sat upright, his words were not solemn, but his attitude was solemn.Bai Mani sipped the soup silently with a smile, knowing that Lian Yi was also a little afraid of Li Ziming.Li Ziming is a tall man in the shape of a crane and mantis. Although his appearance is handsome, occasionally there is a flash of light in his eyes, the light is fierce, and he looks like a wolf.If it's just because he looks like a wolf, Lian Yi wouldn't be afraid of him; Lian Yi is afraid of him, maybe because Li Ziming has followed him since he was a child, and has had all possible relationships with him, until now he is still watching with red eyes. He dominates him.Such a person cannot be dismissed easily.Even if he was shot dead, his persistence might also cause trouble in his soul.

Besides, even though Lian Yi is well maintained, his age will definitely not be as good as every year.When he was too old to carry a gun and mount a horse, Bai Mani thought that maybe Lian Yi wanted to use Li Ziming as his son.

If you want something from others, you will naturally feel timid.Bai Mani glanced at Lian Yi again, and saw him looking down at the table, smiling thoughtfully.

After a while, the orderly brought in a plate of braised fish.Lian Yi got up, took the plate, and put it in front of Li Ziming himself.Li Ziming didn't say a word, picked up his rice bowl and started to eat.The room was silent for a while, except for the sound of dishes and chopsticks.Bai Mani ate the dishes one after another, hoping that Li Ziming would always treat Lian Yi well.If even Li Ziming is unreliable, then Lian Yi really has no one else around.One day I will slip away by myself, although it is out of sight and out of mind, but thinking about the friendship of the past few years, it is best to say hello, me, hello, everyone, and don't feel bad when thinking about each other.

After eating and drinking, the orderlies came in and cleared the tables.Bai Mani walked out leaning on a cane, and sat in the small yard looking at the burning clouds in the sky.Lian Yi stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back, raised his head and whistled, teasing the wild birds on the roof.He is also a master at whistle, full of spirit, and singing in harmony with wild birds, it is almost possible to distinguish the real one from the real one.Li Ziming stood behind him, hands behind his back, his white shirt was unbuttoned, and the front was blown by the evening wind.He was thin, with a well-defined chest and abdomen, all of which were hard and sinewy, and he was exactly at the two extremes of Bai Mani.Staring at the wild birds and listening to the whistle, although he still had a stern face, there was also a kind of tranquility in his expression, like a child who was tired from fighting and decided to smile away his grudges with adults.

When the fire cloud gradually dimmed and extinguished, Bai Mani suddenly turned his head and asked Lian Yi: "I said, when will this battle be fought?"

Lian Yi looked at him with a smile: "What? Are you in a hurry?"

Bai Mani saw that he was not funny to him, so he raised his guard: "Of course I am anxious! Is it interesting for you to live in this dilapidated place? If a fire starts one day, who knows if it is safe enough to follow you!"

Lian Yi made a comforting gesture to him: "Son, don't worry, I also learned my wisdom through a pitfall, and I will never let anyone surround me for three months in the future!"

After saying this for only three hours, Lian Yi asked the telegraph operator to send a secret telegram to Tai'an where Huo Xiangzhen was.Although Huo Xiangzhen's immediate boss is Lao Yan, and his immediate boss is Lao Feng, there is another set of separate secret codes between him and Huo Xiangzhen, which will not be used lightly unless it is an emergency.

Not being on the same battlefield does not prevent them from communicating with each other; and especially because they are not on the same battlefield, they have different visions and ideas, so they can see all directions and listen to all directions when they get together.

Later that day, Li Tianbao sent the translated telegram to Huo Xiangzhen.Huo Xiangzhen was sitting by the bed in shorts and shorts, and had already washed; Andre was squatting shirtless on the ground, washing his feet with hot water.Li Tianbao sent the telegram to him with both hands, and then stepped aside, waiting for orders, while stealthily glancing at him.Huo Xiangzhen's silk underwear was already so thin that it was translucent, but it was very loose, allowing a little brother to have fun in it.Li Tianbao stared at it for a while, and finally lowered his head with a suppressed smile, because the commander-in-chief was really too mighty, he seemed to have a heavy cannon in his crotch, and the barrel of the cannon was held high, as if ready to show his face at any time.

Huo Xiangzhen didn't pay attention to other people's actions.He lowered his head and read the telegram several times, then raised his head with a heavy heart, and didn't speak for a while.Finally, he waved to Li Tianbao, and he decided not to call back for now.

When Andre also left with the water basin, he put on his shoes and got out of bed, struck a match and burned the telegram to ashes.Lian Yi is indeed an old fox. He noticed that the air was not right as soon as he left Bo County, so he specially sent a phone to ask him what he meant.But he doesn't have any clues now, and he has no "meaning" at all.

Going back to the bed and lying down, he was thinking about major events in the world, but he felt his own way into his underpants with one hand.Grabbing all his lifelines, there was always a small flame burning in his heart, scorching him day and night.He also wanted to get rid of himself, but when he did it, it was always bad, uncomfortable and unpleasant—and he couldn't find someone to do it for him.

Turning over and lifting his legs to ride the quilt, he wiped the hot sweat from his forehead on the pillow, and then fell asleep holding himself like this.

He woke up in the middle of the night, got up in the dark, changed into a pair of underpants, and went to bed to continue sleeping.After sleeping until the next morning, Li Kechen, who was stationed in the Beiping office, finally sent a telegram after a long period of silence.It turned out that he had not been idle these days. Relying on his half-true and half-false divination skills, he socialized everywhere, and was honored as a half-immortal by several Northeast Army generals.He stayed up all night last night, gathered the news he had received, and finally refined it into a short telegram.The content of the telegram is very simple: as soon as the Central Army enters Jinan, Xiao Zhang will express his position.

In one sentence, everything is said.As soon as the Central Army entered Jinan, Chiang had the upper hand in Shandong.Xiao Zhang has judged the situation for so long, so he naturally wants to be on the side of the winner, and has no reason to help the poor.Huo Xiangzhen's heart was like a mirror this time, and he immediately ordered someone to call Xue Bing over.

When Xue Bing arrived, Andre was putting a towel on Huo Xiangzhen's lap.Although Huo Xiangzhen changed his underpants once at night, but after dawn, he went back to his old ways, and still wanted to shoot everyone he saw.Li Tianbao is a slave and can be treated like a cat or dog; Xue Bing has status, so he sat cross-legged on the bed, not daring to continue to be an artillery soldier.

Looking up and letting Andre close the door and go out, he handed Li Kechen's telegram to Xuebing.Xue Bing read it once, then raised her head and said, "Commander, it seems that the current situation is really about to take a turn for the worse."

Huo Xiangzhen put her hands on her knees and nodded approvingly.

Xue Bing followed suit and nodded: "Fortunately, the commander-in-chief made a plan in advance. We are finally ahead of others in this step."

Huo Xiangzhen pondered for a moment, but at the end shook his head again, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Jiang spent 3000 million yuan on Xiao Zhang. If the Yellow River goes north, we will give it to Xiao Zhang. When the time comes, where will we be sent to the north and the south?" ? If we were little shrimps, it would be fine if we didn’t catch people’s eyes at all; but we are—” At this point, Huo Xiangzhen paused, and raised his hand to draw a number: “More than 8 people, everyone is A thorn in my side!"

Hearing this, Xue Bing was a little confused: "Then..."

Huo Xiangzhen put down his hand and sighed: "Following Lao Yan is bound to lead to a dead end; following Xiao Zhang is only a stopgap measure. There is no way, let's look at the present for a while! Lao Yan is so contradictory, it is not worth me to continue to protect him. "

Xue Bing thought for a moment, and then said: "Marshal, even if Yan Feng loses, their remnants cannot be easily wiped out. At that time, we will start in advance and incorporate them together with the army and territory. We can count as much as we can get. It's also a way."

Huo Xiangzhen didn't answer, knowing in her heart that Xue Bing seemed to be in a daze now, and she just wanted to push herself to go up - without a supervisor, she would be the provincial chairman, the provincial chairman is the minimum, Xue Bing can't allow herself The status is lower than that of the provincial chairman.

That being the case, he and Xuebing have the same heart, so there is no need to repeat some things.Xue Bing and him never talked nonsense, but when they were silent, they occasionally looked at him, their eyes were threatening, as if they were the general representatives of the Huo family's ancestors, examining and tortured him heartbroken.

After Xue Bing left, Huo Xiangzhen took a cold shower.The bath water was freshly drawn from the well, and it was so cold that his little brother was frozen to death.Then he dressed neatly, sat at the desk, and carefully drafted a reply to Lian Yi.

Now that he has made up his mind, he is not afraid that Lian Yi will turn his back on him and run to inform Yan Feng.And the day after the reply was sent, Lian Yi sent him another confidential telegram.

Lian Yi already understood what he meant, but this time he didn't plan to advance or retreat with him.It was Huo Xiangzhen who was looking for Xiao Zhang, not Lian Yi. If he followed Huo Xiangzhen and voted for Xiao Zhang this time, wouldn't he even become a subordinate of the Huo family again?

If he set up his own business and only looked for Xiao Zhang, he doesn't have such a network now.Moreover, Feng's army was all around him, and it was thanks to Feng's rescue that he was able to retreat from Bo County this time.So it is really difficult and dangerous for him to contact Xiao Zhang now.Besides, there is still suspense about how the battle situation will develop.Yan's Jin Army was indeed defeated in Shandong, and Feng's Northwest Army still had fighting spirit and showed no signs of decline.

For this reason, Lian Yi decided to stand still for the time being, while retaining the alliance with Huo Xiangzhen.Once the winner is decided in the future, the two sides will each occupy a camp, and they can protect and support each other, and the entire army will not be wiped out.

Huo Xiangzhen restrained the troops, unilaterally declared a truce, and stopped fighting.

The Jin army was driven by the Central Army to flee east and west, and finally had nowhere to go. They simply crossed the Yellow River, trying to confront the Central Army by virtue of natural dangers.The Central Army was busy fighting in Henan, so it was not in a hurry to cross the river.The teams on several fronts were evenly matched, and no one dared to act rashly, so the war in Shandong came to an end.

Huo Xiangzhen recalled her great ambitions at the beginning of the war, and looked at the embarrassing situation where good or bad was uncertain, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.There was a heavy rain in the evening, and it was very cool at night.Huo Xiangzhen was lying on the bed for a long time, and Andre stood on the ground holding a towel, while wiping his neck and ears, he muttered something.

Huo Xiangzhen didn't understand, she turned her head and asked him, "What?"

Andre controlled his tongue and repeated slowly: "Let me grow up!"

After hearing this, Huo Xiangzhen reached out and pulled the towel quilt to cover her waist and legs: "He has the guts of a rabbit, it's best not to go anywhere. In case there is a war on the way, don't be scared. See me I have to show my merits again. Ignore him, he is pitiful; ignore him, I am still suffering from famine, how can I have money to reward him?"

After the words were finished, Li Tianbao tiptoed in and said softly, "Report to Commander, just received a telegram from Tianjin, the Secretary-General said he would come to visit Commander."

Huo Xiangzhen immediately leaned over and raised her head: "Don't let him come!"

Li Tianbao smiled and said, "The Secretary-General is on his way now."

Huo Xiangzhen was stunned for a moment, then lay down back to her original position: "This bastard runs fast enough!"
