Chapter 1436 Priceless Silver.
The Russians must have their own intelligence channels, so Lin Yan really didn't know what Nicholas said about the east and west, so he immediately asked:
"When did this happen?"

Nicholas said:
"Just before we set off!"

Then Nicholas went on to say with a smile on his face:

"Now the homeland defense on the Japanese side is very empty! It's as tattered as the crotch of a Turkish prostitute. Half an hour ago, our intelligence personnel sent another message. After getting the news of the attack on Nagasaki, Tokyo has been stunned, not only did not send troops to this side, but instead forced armies from all over to defend Tokyo to guard the emperor!"

"Because they think that Nagasaki has been attacked, and then we may go straight into Tokyo Bay and attack the Yokosuka Naval Port! Once this is successfully attacked, it will be the time for Japan to sink!"

"So, after discussing with several of our staff officers, we agreed that we have at least 72 hours of vacation time! Although this small and wet place only has rice, raw fish, and soft sake, it smears the teeth black whore. But it's still better than that damn cabin of the Nelson after all!!"

Although Fang Linyan felt that Nicholas was a bit too optimistic, he knew that arguing with a drunken Cossack was meaningless, so he could only nod and said:

"Yes, yes, you speak very well!"

Nicholas obviously didn't understand the perfunctory meaning in Fang Linyan's words, he simply laughed and took a sip of sake, then turned and left, but he turned back after walking halfway and said:
"By the way, Hu, when I was patrolling the post, I saw a suspicious person at the door, but this person repeatedly emphasized that he was an acquaintance of yours and wanted to see you."

Fang Linyan frowned and said:

"My acquaintances? I don't have many acquaintances here in Nagasaki. Well, I'm fine anyway, so it's okay to meet up."

So soon, Fang Linyan saw this acquaintance at the gate of the military port, and he suddenly said in surprise:
"Ah? Are you the seventh son of Zheng Zheng?"

When Fang Linyan left Nagasaki for the first time, he was quite embarrassed. He still relied on the help of Boss Zheng from Tang Ren's house, and went directly to the smuggling boat at that time: the heavy ship.

And Boss Zheng is also a respected person in the Tang dynasty, he must be responsible for clearing up the relationship and boarding the ship, he will not do it himself, he will just talk about it, and then send his trusted butler to do it.

Zheng Laoqi, who appeared in front of Fang Linyan at this time, was the confidant of Zheng's boss, Zheng Jiaguang, and he was also the one who accompanied Fang Linyan on the heavy ship, helping to open the joints all the way, and he was very good at being a man.

However, Zheng Laoqi at this time was extremely embarrassed. He was wearing a tattered black dress, and it was also very dirty. You must know that this dress is called "Oak Clothes" in Japan, and it is recognized Only the untouchables would wear it.

Moreover, Zheng Laoqi's face was pale, his face and body were covered with mud, and his right hand was limp and abnormally hanging down, which was obviously broken.

As soon as Zheng Laoqi saw Fang Linyan, he immediately knelt down with a "plop" and said with tears in his eyes:
"Young Master Hu, I beg you to save my master, that would cost hundreds of lives!"

Fang Linyan hurriedly said:
"Get up and talk! Brother Zheng and I hit it off right away, and I am grateful to him for helping me get on the boat. I will definitely not stand by and watch. What's going on now, tell me quickly!"

Then Fang Linyan took Zheng Laoqi inside, saw him shivering and shivering, so he asked someone to bring him a bowl of steaming red dates and ginger soup, and then found him some dry clothes.

When Zheng Laoqi was changing his clothes, Fang Linyan also looked at his arm, and found that the ulna of his right hand was swollen high and blue, and he couldn't move at all. It was obviously broken for a long time.

At this time, Zheng Laoqi seemed to be drinking the ginger soup greedily. After drinking a bowl, sweat appeared on his forehead. Went to fetch half a pot, Zheng Laoqi drank three bowls in a row, finally heaved a sigh of satisfaction, and then said anxiously:
"Young Master Hu, let's go, I'm afraid the Patriarch and the others won't last long."

Fang Linyan said seriously:

"Old Qi, you must at least tell me the specific situation, right? You have also seen that I am not the one who has the final say in this camp. It is mainly hosted by the Russians, including the fierce battle last night. It is mainly their people." of."

Knowing that what Fang Linyan said was true, Zheng Laoqi let out a long sigh and told the story of the past.

He first talked about the situation before Tangren's house was full of rain and wind, and then about the big riot that happened yesterday. After hearing this, Fang Linyan was also quite sad.

When Fang Linyan heard that Zheng Jiaguang led a group of people to meet the escaped Chinese on the mountain, he frowned in an unknown way, because in his opinion, Zheng Jiaguang's motive for doing this was good, but It must have brought a lot of hidden dangers!
Sure enough, Zheng Laoqi went on to say:
"After my master returned to Navel Hair Village with a group of devastated victims, he heard continuous and huge explosions coming from Nagasaki in the middle of the night! So he sent me out to investigate the situation, because I was usually in I’m more familiar with Nagasaki.”

"As a result, I just left Navel Hair Village when I realized that I was surrounded by a group of men in black and killed me. Most of the injuries on my body were caused at that time. Fortunately, the people in Navel Hair Village also kept I was vigilant and came to help when I heard the cries for help from my side, so I escaped by luck."

"When I was escaping, I was in a panic. After I got to a safe place, I went up to a high place and saw that the whole navel hair village had been surrounded by a large number of torches, and there was the sound of iron cannons."

Fang Linyan knew that the Japanese called muskets iron guns, and this has lasted for hundreds of years. Seeing that Zheng Laoqi was very involved in speaking, he quickly shot, grabbed his arm and made a strong mistake , Connected its broken bones.

Caught off guard, Zheng Laoqi let out a loud scream and instinctively wanted to struggle, but was held down by Fang Linyan, and then put on the splint and applied medicine in one go.
After treating the wound, Zheng Laoqi couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, but after the previous pain, he obviously felt that the injury was much easier. Obviously, Fang Linyan's treatment was very effective.

At this time, Zheng Laoqi glanced at Fang Linyan gratefully, and then continued:
"I was not willing to leave like this at the time, so I walked around the periphery cautiously. It turned out to be lucky, and I bumped into two evacuated wounded."

"I'm also good at punching and kicking myself, so after seeing these two guys, I found a chance to rush up, knocked out one first, and then tortured the rest. Only then did I know that the Zheng family was here because of saving people. The whereabouts were revealed, and as a result, a big man in Nagasaki City focused on us and dispatched manpower to attack Navel Hair Village."

"At the same time, I also learned the news that Nagasaki was attacked from them. The wounded said that the Russians attacked the port, but they also saw Chinese people among them. Now there are many speculations from the outside world, and there are even suspicions that the Zheng family has colluded. The Russians caused this attack."

"Then I pressed again and again, and the wounded man finally revealed the truth, saying that his master's wealth had been looted by the Russians, so he had to take down Navel Hair Village and get the large amount of wealth taken away by the Zheng family in order to make a comeback."

Hearing this, Fang Linyan also had a general impression in his heart, and smiled slightly:

"and then."

Zheng Laoqi said:
"Then I knocked this one out, and asked another wounded man, but he got your news from his mouth. It turned out that this wounded man was actually a ninja, who was in charge of listening to news and collecting intelligence. Tell me this time. The port attack was a deliberate act by the Chinese."

"The reason is that he found a familiar Chinese in the lost port. This guy came here to inquire about intelligence in the name of purchasing arms a month ago!"

Fang Linyan laughed and said:

"This guy is talking about me."

Zheng Laoqi smiled awkwardly and said:

"Yes, so after thinking about it, you are the only one who can save the Patriarch."

Fang Linyan said:

"Since Brother Zheng's accident happened, then of course I won't stand by and watch, but you don't have to worry too much, because based on what you said, I can almost know who attacked them."

Speaking of this, Fang Linyan immediately went to chat with Nicholas, and then Nicholas turned around and asked the orderly to invite his adjutant Zhu Keru to come over. Zhu Keru had the detailed information on the looting of Nagasaki Port this time and went out. The first-hand information provided by Russian mercenaries is also summarized here in Zhu Keru.

After Fang Linyan communicated with Zhu Keru for a few minutes, he immediately nodded and told Zheng Laoqi:
"The enemy has a lot of people besieging Navel Hair Village, and they are still prepared. If I rush to help, I might be eaten in turn, so we must mobilize enough people to go there. "

"Fortunately, I am familiar with the leader of this group of people. He should be an officer in the navy, Dong Xiangjing. I know him quite well. This guy loves money like his life, so if Brother Zheng uses it to destroy the If the wealth is threatened, it should be able to delay for enough time."

Hearing that what Fang Linyan said made sense, Zheng Laoqi pointed at Fang Linyan, knelt down and said:
"Then thank you Mr. Hu for your righteousness and Bo Yuntian! The Patriarch also made it clear before setting off that all money and the like are floating clouds and belongings outside the body. As long as you are willing to come to the rescue, Mr. Hu, any loss and consumption will be done by you." Let's come out, and in the future, the Zheng family's shares will also have [-]% of Mr. Hu's!"

Fang Linyan waved his hands with a smile. Money and the like were like floating clouds to him. What made him determined to rescue Zheng Jiaguang was that this was a group of local snakes. With their help, they would undoubtedly cause greater harm to the Japanese.

After all, the expedition to Japan is the biggest card that can be used in one's hand, but it is also the last card in the hole. Now that a good start has come at this time, of course, it is necessary to do the best in the subsequent performance.

Next, Fang Linyan went to find Nicholas first. After all, he had to get his permission for what he was going to do next, and then went to the loot exchange area. People returned and exchanged the various valuables they robbed into convenient and easy-to-carry Tsarist Russian ruble silver coins.

At this place, Fang Linyan yelled out very simply:

"I need to hire some good guys to get rid of some damn Japanese. There are about 200 of these Japanese. Among them are ninjas and soldiers. They have pretty good combat effectiveness. The whole operation takes about three hours. Individuals will distribute [-] Eagle Oceans, and each person will issue [-] Eagle Oceans after the operation is completed."

"I have already reported this plan to Mr. Nicholas, and he is very supportive of us continuing to stab these defeated guys twice in the back!"

Fang Linyan's shout immediately attracted the attention of more than [-] Cossacks waiting in line, and then surrounded them, a bearded man with a cigar in his mouth shouted:

"Hi! Chinese boy, you're such a cheapskate on this boat that I've had less than an ounce of vodka for two whole days! And what the hell are you talking about Eagle Ocean!"

Fang Linyan simply grabbed a handful from the side pocket, there were about a dozen of them, and directly sprinkled them to the group of people:

"It's Mexican silver coins, my friend! I'd rather pay the bill in your silver rubles, because you're a bunch of good-spirited fellows, and the silver rubles have a pair of priceless navels on them!"

Hearing Fang Linyan's words, the Cossack soldiers below laughed wildly and whistled.

However, Fang Linyan knew very well that dealing with these rude fellows was not acceptable!This kind of dirty joke can quickly get closer to the relationship between the two parties.

You have to get their approval first in terms of strength, and then you have to adapt to their straightforward and irritable personality in terms of speech and behavior!

(Note: During a certain period of time from 1840 to 1851, the Russian Alten Mint minted a large number of new silver rubles. According to European practice, the gold and silver currency system casting scheme is the head of the king on the front and the casting on the back. date + country-specific emblem.)
(This time, on the silver ruble minted by the Alten Mint, the portrait of the great female czar: Catherine II was printed on it. Because of the European style at that time and the technical problems of coinage, the portrait of the silver coin was quite distorted High, the most striking feature is the pair of OOs on the chest. However, the silver ruble produced during this period has a high content of pure silver and is highly accepted by the people, so in the tavern, surrounded by the noble female czar OO can generate countless topics.)
