C297 Officer Lu's Secret Order

At that moment, Fan Wengong hurriedly advised, "Mom, Xuehua is discussing this with my dad. Did he say that he must bring Xuejia back to the city? Why are you in such a hurry?"

He knew that his big brother loved to study since he was young. Almost every year, he was a "good student" in the school and earned many awards. His parents put these awards on the wall seriously as a basis for others to show off.

Compared to his big brother, he had never liked to study since he was young. When he opened the book, he could not help but feel sleepy. As a result, the teachers in the school said that he and Fan Wenbin were brothers. Why was there such a huge difference?

It was precisely because of this that he barely graduated from primary school. Fan Wengong did not get into junior high school. He thought of going to the south to work, but his father stopped him. After making a fuss, he started to work with his parents.

Fan Wengong had some opinions about what had happened in the past. He felt that his parents were biased and unfair to him. However, after his brother had developed, he did not forget his roots and helped him many times. He was very touched.

Furthermore, as he grew older, he gradually looked down on the things that had happened in the past and did not dwell on them. Now, he only wanted to take that riverbank land for himself, and he was satisfied.

Fan Wengong was very uninterested in the matters of his big brother's family. After saying this, he turned around and left the Fan family's old courtyard. He had already discussed with his father about how to deal with Li Manrong. What was the point of getting involved in other people's matters?

"Xue-Hua, you understand what your grandmother and I mean. " Fan Youmin stared intently at his eldest grandson. His eyes were bright and his tone was very firm as he said, "The ceremony is to study in the Fan family. No one can take it away. "

Wang Fang wiped away her tears and also said sternly, "Your grandfather is right. No one is allowed to take my ceremony away. "

Then, she held Fan Xueli tightly in her arms and said with great concern, "My child, listen to Grandma. You won't go anywhere. "

These words made Fan Xuechua feel slightly awkward, but at the same time, he also felt a little gratified. It was indeed a very fortunate thing for his younger brother to have such concern from his grandparents.

"Alright then, let Xueli study at the Fan household. " After a while, when his grandparents' anger dissipated, Fan Xuehua said embarrassingly, "With you guys taking care of him, I can be at ease. "

Seeing Fan Xuehua like this, Fan Youcai laughed bitterly in his heart. He also conveniently said, "I'll take care of my grandfather and grandmother's life in the school. In school, I'll take care of them. Xuehua, don't worry.

When he said this, he thought that since things had already come to this point, as an outsider, what else could he say? He could only do his best to take care of Fan Xueli, even if he was worthy of his father, Fan Wenbin.

Later on, Fan Xuehua understood that this winter night, to him, was destined to be unusual from the beginning.

It was late at night. After Wang Fang hugged Fan Xueli and fell asleep, Fan Youmin drank tea and smoked. With a heavy expression, he began to tell a story about the death of Fan's ancestor, Fan Tingfu.

Fan Tingfu, the oldest elder brother of both banks of the Yellow River, had died in Jingji Castle, which was 500 to 600 kilometers away from Daan during the night when the spring flowers bloomed. It was something that no one had expected.

Originally, Fan Tingfu would not have died. However, he had died in one night. Furthermore, his death was very strange, which made his nephew Fan Zhengkun very puzzled.

Two months ago, a nephew called Fan Zhenggan returned from Lan Province to his hometown and greeted his uncle, Fan Tingfu. He told him in detail about some very interesting major events in the world.

Fan Zhenggan was originally studying at the Lanzhou Agricultural School. After he graduated, he became the secretary of the leader of the troops in Lanzhou, Officer Lu. He was more expensive than Fan Zhengkun's father, Fan Tingfu. He was an officer who graduated from a guaranteed military school. He seemed to have a bright future ahead of him.

That night, Fan Zhenggan told his uncle with a serious expression that the Japanese had started a war in the northeast China region. Zhang Xueliang's 300 thousand Dongjun troops retreated and gave the entire northeast to the Japanese.

The last emperor of Great Qing Dynasty was also the last emperor in China's history. Xuan Tong Pu Yi was also taken to the northeast by the Japanese and was willing to be the fake Manchukuo puppet emperor.

After hearing his nephew's words, Fan Tingfu let out a heavy sigh and realized that. . . The world was going to be in chaos. He was most concerned about where his brothers would go and where they would go.

Compared to Fan Tingfu, Fan Zhengkun did not think much of his cousin's words. In his memory, his cousin was just a bookworm. He seemed to know nothing other than reading books.

However, his cousin's sudden return to the Fan Family and his visit to Fan Tingfu with a generous gift gave him a sense of vigilance. He thought Fan Zhenggan had come under the orders of Officer Lu to fight for the throne of the leader of the Elder Council.

While Fan Tingfu was thinking silently, Fan Zhengkun said in a disapproving tone, "There will naturally be people who will take care of the matters in the northeast. It's not up to us, the commoners, to worry. "

Fan Zhenggan smiled and glanced at him. He glanced at Fan Tingfu and said coldly, "Brother Zhengkun, when the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Now, it is a good opportunity for us brothers to show our skills and make a name for ourselves. "

When he said this, he thought to himself, 'It's not like you, Fan Zhengkun, are the leader of my guild. ' 'The emperor is not in a hurry to become a eunuch, so why are you in a hurry? ' Besides, I have Officer Lu's handwritten letter, so I can't make much of a fuss even if I measure you.

Later on, the series of events proved that Fan Zhengkun's vigilance was very necessary. This time, Fan Zhenggan returned to the Fan family's residence at this time. He was indeed carrying the secret and important mission that Officer Lu had entrusted to him.

Two days later, taking advantage of Fan Zhengkun's absence, Fan Zhenggan handed a letter to his uncle, Fan Tingfu, and complimented him. "Uncle, Officer Lu has long known your great name. He values you very much, a dragon head. "

Before returning to his hometown, Officer Lu handed the handwritten letter to Fan Zhenggan and said something meaningfully. Secretary Fan, you've been with me for a few years. It's time to let you go out and train.

Then, with a mysterious smile, he reminded Fan Zhenggan. When you go back, hand this handwritten letter of mine to your uncle, Fan Tingfu. I think he will act according to my instructions.

As expected, after Fan Tingfu read the letter, he glanced at Fan Zhenggan. After pondering for a moment, he smiled bitterly and said to himself, "Officer Lu's plan is very clever. He wants to use me as a gun and let me lead my brothers to attack the Gold Stable Fortress for him. "

The Gold Accumulated Fortress was about 500 to 600 kilometers away from Daan County. It was adjacent to the Yellow River, and the terrain was very steep. It could be said that one man could stop tens of thousands of people. Since ancient times, it was a place that militarists fought for.

Now, a group of bandits had gathered here, and they were domineering and imposing. Their leader was a man named Shen Zhifa. Because his spear skills were extremely nimble, people in the pugilistic world called him "Sky Flipping Sparrow Hawk. "

The reason why Officer Lu wanted Fan Tingfu to attack the Gold Accumulated Fortress was very reasonable. This was because Shen Zhifa had secretly joined the Japanese. He also appointed Zhang Dongshan, a high level spy of the Japanese Guan Dongjun. His name was Ichiro Ogawa, and he became the Chief of Staff.

In the letter, Officer Lu also promised that if he defeated Shen Zhifa, the 100 miles radius of Jingji Castle would be under Fan Tingfu's jurisdiction. The meaning behind his words was very obvious. On the day of victory, Fan Tingfu would completely replace Shen Zhifa, and his influence would expand from the east of the Yellow River to Fort Jin.

"Uncle, this is a great thing. " Fan Zhenggan took the letter and quickly browsed through it. He beamed and said, "Firstly, excluding the traitor, Shen Zhifa, and secondly, expanding our influence, killing two birds with one stone. "

Of course, when he said this, he concealed his true intentions tightly. When he left Lan Province, Officer Lu looked at the rolling Yellow River and patted his shoulder, saying something that made his blood boil.

"I'm working on it. Your uncle is already old. I have high hopes for you. Whether I can succeed or not when I return to my hometown this time will depend on you.

This short sentence instantly made him understand the true intention of Officer Lu to send him back to his hometown. It also ignited the strong desire to do great things that had been suppressed in his heart for many years.

In the past few days, whenever Fan Zhenggan thought of Officer Lu's words and his eyes full of expectation, he would be overwhelmed by emotions and unable to sleep at night. Of course, he also knew very well that this was a matter of blood.

"Uncle, with Officer Lu's secret order, we can attack the Gold Accumulation Fortress justifiably. " Seeing Fan Tingfu hesitate, Fan Zhenggan was worried that things would change, so he urged, "We can't disobey Officer Lu's order. "

Fan Tingfu stroked his white hair and said hatefully, "I didn't expect this Shen Zhifa to become a traitor and even hire a Japanese to be the Chief of Staff. He really doesn't know any shame at all. "

"However, this matter is still a little difficult to talk about. " After a while, he continued, "Shen Zhifa has been a bandit for his entire life. His spear skills are very accurate and his heart is cruel and ruthless. He is very difficult to deal with. "

Before this, the older brother association's fleet had once been robbed, and the losses were not small. After that, Fan Tingfu found out that the mastermind was the bandit, Shen Zhifa, who was nicknamed Sky Flipping Young Sparrow. This made him very angry.

Now, with this secret order from Officer Lu, he could openly attack the Gold Accumulated Fortress. At the same time, he could openly rule the land within several hundred kilometers of the Gold Accumulated Fortress.

Seeing Fan Ting's rich thoughts, Fan Zhenggan laughed coldly in his heart and said loudly, "Uncle, let me investigate first. After I figure out the terrain of the Gold Accumulated Fortress and the deployment of firepower, I'll make a move and catch Shen Zhifa unprepared. "

"Good, good, very good, very good. " Fan Tingfu was very happy to see his nephew taking the initiative to fight at a critical moment. "Zhenggan, you are a scholar. It is rare for you to have such courage. "

Therefore, Fan Zhenggan pretended to be a teacher. The next morning, he went alone to the heavily guarded bandit's nest, Jinji Stronghold, and carefully investigated for half a month. He only returned to the Fan household after figuring out everything.

During this period, Fan Tingfu and Fan Zhengkun discussed this matter in secret many times, and they all thought that it was because of this matter. This was indeed a rare opportunity to expand the Fan family's influence, but the risks involved were also very high.

With ambition and the desire to dominate a region. . . Fan Tingfu, who was the "local emperor," was different. Fan Zhengkun was mainly worried about whether Fan Zhenggan, his cousin, would take the opportunity to gain the trust of his uncle and become the new successor of the leader of the Elder Council. This was what he was most concerned about.

Even though the risk of attacking the Gold Accumulated Fortress was very high, if things went wrong, they might even be completely wiped out. However, riches came from danger, and they discussed and discussed. In the end, the uncle and nephew still decided that they could not lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After hearing Fan Zhenggan's detailed report, Fan Tingfu immediately took out a large amount of silver and distributed it to the brothers of his older brother's association. At the same time, he also sent out a secret order, telling them to immediately wipe the spear and sharpen the knife, and prepare to set off at any time.

At this time, it was the most comfortable spring season in the year. The peach blossom and apricot flowers on the Black Orchid Mountain gradually bloomed, and the Yellow River water also grew clear. The night on both sides of the river was filled with a dense and intoxicating aura of life.
