Expedition to Europe

In Cheng Jingxian's impression, the so-called "army" is a bandit with a legitimate identity.

The so-called "soldiers and bandits are one family" is not a joke. In many cases, if the army loses control, the destructive power caused by bandits is much greater than that of bandits.

In the Northeast, bandits are rampant and bandits are everywhere. Because of the mutual infiltration of the Japanese and the Republic of China, and the current situation caused by the Russo-Japanese War that once took place on this land, the ruling power of the Republic of China government over the Northeast region is extremely weak. Even the regular army of the Republic of China does not look so regular, not to mention the security groups organized by each village and village.

Cheng Jingxian is almost 60 years old this year, and his impression of the army is still stuck in the various "beggar army" and "double-gun army" of the Qing government. The most disciplined army Cheng Jingxian has ever seen in his life is the Japanese army.

The impression of the Lan Fang army on Cheng Jingxian is different from all the previous armies.

Just after Lao Liu reported to Cheng Jingxian that the Lan Fang army had arrived, Cheng Jingxian immediately ordered the bearded men who followed him down the mountain to line up by the river, wanting to let the Lan Fang army see how wise the Vladivostok coalition's investment in the Lion Village was.

Among the bandits, Cheng Jingxian was considered good.

There were about 150 people who followed Cheng Jingxian down the mountain, which was considered a relatively large group in the area where the Lion Village was located.

Cheng Jingxian's 150 men were all strong young men. Basically, they had participated in battles with other bandits and local militias, and had combat experience. At the same time, each of them had a war horse, which was what Cheng Jingxian was most proud of.

War horses are rare things. The cost of raising a horse is actually more than two people. Cheng Jingxian has 150 war horses in his hands. This is the result of Cheng Jingxian's painstaking management for many years, and it is also the capital for the Lion Village to settle down here.

Cheng Jingxian is confident that even the Lan Fang army cannot have one horse per person, so Cheng Jingxian is also ready to show his strength.

It was similar to what Cheng Jingxian thought. Lan Fang could not have been alone with a horse, because Lan Fang did not need one.

Just as Cheng Jingxian and his team lined up neatly by the Mudan River, Cheng Jingxian heard the roar of the engine becoming clearer and clearer.

Soon, from the foot of the mountain where Lao Liu and his team ran, a strange thing that Cheng Jingxian had never seen before came over.

If it was "Mr. Liu", Mr. Liu would explain to Cheng Jingxian: This is called a "three-wheeled motorcycle".

Almost at the first sight of the three-wheeled motorcycle, Cheng Jingxian felt that his wish to install something well would be in vain. Sure enough, as the strange thing got closer and closer, more and more strange things came over from the foot of the mountain, two, five, ten...

Behind the strange thing was a bigger strange thing, and then more strange things...

Okay, Cheng Jingxian has become numb.

Forgive this old man who has never seen a car and has only stayed in the mountain all his life.

You know, at this time in East Asia, cars were still very rare. Even Japan, which had the highest degree of industrialization, would not notice the importance of cars until next year in another time and space, and then set up the first car company.

In the Republic of China today, only a few dignitaries can own cars. In a remote place like Mudanjiang, including the Japanese army, there is not a single car.

Relatively speaking, Lan Fang has too many cars. At least so far, Cheng Jingxian has not seen a Lan Fang soldier walking on the road. Even the most ordinary big-headed soldiers are sitting in cars.

It was not just Cheng Jingxian who felt shocked. Everyone lined up by the river was shocked, but their attention was focused on the war horses under their crotches.

These war horses have experienced battles, and they will not be frightened even by firing guns and cannons, otherwise they cannot become war horses.

But these war horses have never seen so many strange things, let alone heard the deafening roar of the engine, so they are a little anxious now, and need the knights to comfort them to ensure that they are not frightened.

However, the neat formation was a little crooked. Fortunately, Cheng Jingxian's attention was not on the formation now, otherwise he would inevitably lose his temper again.

Just when Cheng Jingxian was stunned, a three-wheeled motorcycle stopped in front of Cheng Jingxian, and a soldier in military uniform holding a light machine gun jumped out of the sidecar and asked loudly: "Who is Mr. Cheng?"

When the soldier jumped out of the sidecar, Cheng Jingxian was shocked again.

Before going down the mountain, Cheng Jingxian and his men changed into their most glamorous clothes and brought their best-looking weapons, just to show a good appearance. But bandits are bandits after all. Cheng Jingxian's so-called "best clothes" are just mink hats, sheepskin coats, and cotton boots. If they have a leather bullet bag, they are fully equipped.

And the soldier in front of him, according to the concept of military rank popularized by "Mr. Liu", is obviously just a sergeant major, not even an officer, but his equipment is unexpectedly good.

This sergeant major is wearing a blue-gray steel helmet. The helmet is obviously lined with fur, which is good for keeping warm and blocking the wind. This sergeant major is wearing a blue-gray woolen coat that reaches to his knees, with two sides. The front placket was lifted up and fastened to the back hem of the coat, so that it would not be affected when moving; through the separated parts of the coat, it was obvious You can see the leather kneepads covering the knees and calves of the sergeant major. Even though the kneepads are not standard equipment, they are still painted blue-grey. The big leather shoes on the sergeant major's feet make Cheng Jingxian the most envious. You can tell at a glance. This kind of shoes must be strong, durable, and very warm, which makes Cheng Jingxian, who still has urala grass stuffed in the shoes, extremely envious.

In addition to the clothes on his body, this sergeant major also has many small bits and pieces on his body, such as the collar around his neck, the mask that is pulled down when talking, and the three-finger gloves on his hands. These details can reflect the true nature of Lanfang soldiers. strength.

Apart from his clothes, the weapons carried by the sergeant major also opened Cheng Jingxian's eyes. The sergeant major sitting in the sidecar was holding a light machine gun in his arms. When the sergeant major jumped out of the sidecar, Cheng Jing first noticed that the machine gunner was actually carrying a pistol. There was also a saber stuffed in the belt on his chest, which could be clearly seen in the leather pouch on his waist. A row of grenades.

What he saw in front of him made Cheng Jingxian subconsciously feel like he was rubbing his teeth. If everyone in Lanfang's army was like this, they would be too rich!

Being greeted by such a mighty and majestic soldier as "Sir Cheng" made Cheng Jingxian feel happy, so Cheng Jingxian immediately rolled off his horse with a smile on his face.

"Haha, I, Cheng Jingxian, have met the military master..." Cheng Jingxian raised his hand in greeting.

Well, Cheng Jingxian was so shocked that he had forgotten his identity. This "jun ye" really revealed Cheng Jingxian's true identity.

It's nothing. No matter who it is, I'm afraid they won't be able to show off in front of such a force.

"Sergeant Major Cen Jinchang of the 2nd Battalion and 1st Company of the 1st Regiment of Lanfang Armored Division salutes you. Please come with me. Our general is waiting for you." Cen Jinchang was not polite and did not correct Cheng Jingxian's mistakes. He stood at attention and saluted meticulously.

"Easy to say, easy to say." Cheng Jing, who had no intention of winning anymore, did not hesitate at first and turned around to lead the horse.

"Major, let's go by car." Cen Jinchang's voice was not loud enough for Cheng Jingxian to hear.

"Okay, thank you." Cheng Jingxian blushed, turned around and followed Cen Jinchang onto a three-wheeled motorcycle.

As soon as Cheng Jingxian left, a group of bandits suddenly lost control and jumped off their horses one after another and began to approach the soldiers of the armored division.

"Hey, brother, this guy you are using looks really exciting..." Some bandits...Vladivostok coalition soldiers expressed envy.

The soldiers of the armored division were well-informed and they immediately issued an invitation: "What's the point? We are all a family now, and you will be there too later on. Come on, come on, try it out on the saddle, and see if the saddle is comfortable." ”

The soldiers of the armored division invited the coalition soldiers to come up and have a try, but they couldn't stop looking at the horses of the coalition soldiers.

To be honest, war horses are really rare things in Lanfang...

"Come on, come on, let's take a seat," the coalition soldier also said.

"Well, I'm so kind, let's take one." The armored division soldier immediately said "twenty rings."

"Hey, foreign smoke, this is good stuff." The coalition soldiers rubbed their hands excitedly, as if a little dirt on their hands would taint the enjoyment process.

"What a good thing this is. There are so many of them. Everyone has something given by the superiors." The armored division soldier showed off intentionally or unintentionally.

"Really?" The coalition soldier was extremely envious.

"Real money and silver are so real..." The armored division soldier was very satisfied with the ostentation effect.

While the coalition soldiers and armored division soldiers were communicating, Cheng Jingxian and Cen Jinchang were also communicating.

"This is where we are sitting..." Cheng Jingxian finally couldn't help but be curious.

"This is called a three-wheel motorcycle. It is mainly used by our scouts... This is a military truck. It can pull people and things on it. You see, our soldiers don't have many bullets on their bodies. They are all pulled on the truck. , behind these vehicles is a 120mm artillery... This is a tank, our Lan Fang Lu The most powerful weapon in the army now is made of steel plates, which cannot be penetrated by the Japanese heavy machine gun. At the same time, it is equipped with a 75mm tank gun and a coaxial machine gun. It is invincible when attacking cities and villages. It is precisely because of the tanks. We are the armored divisions..." Cen Jinchang did not hide anything and introduced the vehicles parked on the roadside one by one.

"This is an armored command vehicle. The body is all made of steel plates. However, it is not as thick as the one on the tank. However, it is much faster than the tank. It can also be used for assault. At the same time, because it has certain defensive capabilities, the vehicle inside The space is not small and can also be used to form a command post... Major, we are here," Cen Jinchang introduced in detail.

To be honest, Cheng Jing, who had been "ohing" all the way, really felt his legs were a little weak when he got off the car. It was not that the vibration of the motorcycle was too great, but that he felt really unsure.

Before seeing Lan Fang's army, Cheng Jingxian thought that his troops were good. When he saw Lan Fang's army, the last trace of confidence in Cheng Jingxian's heart had disappeared.

Lanfang's army is so strong, how can people like us?

Can't you go show someone the door?

This was the thought that was running through Cheng Jingxian's mind when he got out of the car.
