Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Seeing his father's serious expression, Young Master Li could only touch his forehead with his hand, looking depressed.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. Ever since he became an adult, he had wanted to resist. But more than ten years had passed, he had already started a family, and his children were seven or eight years old.

But in his father's eyes, the eldest son of the Li family, who was a powerful figure in the Tianjin gang, would always be a child who would never grow up. This could never change.

So, seeing that he couldn't win the argument with his father, the eldest son of the Li family quickly changed the subject:

"I sent a lot of people to investigate, but there was no news. It seems that Zhou Baoguo disappeared from Tianjin. I also sent a lot of people to watch the four city gates to make sure he did not leave the city."

After listening to this, Mr. Li pondered for a while, and then said something very philosophical:

"Since the investigation has not yielded any results, then withdraw everyone and stop investigating. I think the other party is very powerful. There is no need for our Li family to offend this powerful dragon."

"Besides, even with the strength of our Li family, we can't find it, so it's even more impossible for the Japanese to find it. This is a good thing, a very good thing."

"I asked you to investigate before because I wanted to see if I could help. After all, what Zhou Baoguo and his friends did made an old man like me admire them very much."

"Tie Niu, you must always remember that our Li family is Chinese. We were born here, grew up here, and will eventually be buried on this land. No matter what, our Li family will not allow a traitor to appear. Even if it is my own son, if he dares to be a traitor, he must be punished according to family law."

"Dad, I understand."

After hearing this, Young Master Li quickly nodded and agreed. This was the family motto of their Li family. No one would disobey it, and no one dared to disobey it.

Even though his father is old, he was a ruthless character in his days. It was he who used his swords and guns to conquer the current Li family's territory. His prestige in the family is unmatched.

Mr. Li continued, "In fact, it is very easy to guess the other party's origins. It is nothing more than those few families."

"He was able to kill more than a hundred Japanese military police and elite spies within ten minutes, and he was able to escape unscathed. This kind of terrifying combat power is terrifying just to think about it."

"Besides the Military Control Commission and the Central Control Commission, I can't think of any other forces that have the strength or financial resources to do this. However, I still think the Military Control Commission is the most likely. Boss Dai is a ruthless person, so it's not surprising that he could do such a thing."

After hearing what his father said, Young Master Li held a different view:

"This is a very gratifying thing. If it was really done by Dai's people, the Military Intelligence Bureau would definitely shout about it everywhere to take credit. How is it possible that after such a long time, they haven't spread the news to the public? I also think the Central Intelligence Bureau is the same. This is very inconsistent with their usual style."

After hearing his son's analysis, Mr. Li also agreed very much. Doing such a big thing will definitely win the hearts of the people, and this is indeed not in line with the style of the two families.

But precisely because of this, this matter has become more interesting. The reason why the Li family did not take action is mainly because they do not have the strength to do so.

It's not possible for the Four Seas Gang either. They are in the freight business and believe in making money through harmony. They won't have a head-on conflict with the Japanese. At most they'll give them some money secretly.

Others like the Axe Gang are even less likely to do so. They are the Japanese's lackeys and there is no way they would bite back such a big bite from their master.

At this time, Young Master Li asked hesitantly, "Father, do you think it is possible that the Eighth Route Army did it?"

After hearing this, the old man was stunned for a moment, then thought carefully for a while, and finally said with a smile:

"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible."

"When it comes to large-scale troops fighting the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army is unmatched, but their weapons and equipment are too poor, especially in cities. I have seen many times that their intelligence officers did not even have a gun and died in vain on the streets."

"The fighting spirit of these people is admirable, but it is impossible for there to be a unit with such terrifying strength."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Anyway, you have to give orders later. You must be careful when dealing with this mysterious army and try not to offend them. If necessary, you can provide them with some help. This will be beneficial to our Li family and will not cause any harm."

After hearing this, Young Master Li nodded repeatedly. He knew his limits in this matter and would not let his subordinates do anything reckless. If they really angered the other party, their Li family would not be able to stop them. The main reason was that the other party was too mysterious and no one knew his true identity.

"Oh, Dad, someone from the Eighth Route Army contacted me and said they want to buy some machinery and equipment. What do you think we should do?"

"We should still follow the old rules and sell it to them at our cost price plus the transportation fee. They are a respectable group of people. We would feel guilty about making money from them. At the same time, we also hope that they can win more battles. Only by winning battles can we stand up straight in front of the enemy and have room to deal with those beasts."

"However, this matter must be kept secret. You must personally contact the people sent by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. All the people involved must be absolutely reliable. Once the matter is leaked and known by the Japanese, it will be a huge disaster for our Li family."

At this time, the housekeeper came in from outside to report that a guest was visiting the house and he also handed over a business card.

After receiving it, Young Master Zhao discovered that the name card was written with Cui Xiaobian, and immediately asked curiously:

"Father, this Cui Xiaobian's Dafengtang seems to have just arrived in Tianjin recently. Do you think it has anything to do with that incident?"

"Also, what does the picture of Xing Tian roaring that fell from the head of the Japanese Special High Section mean? Why did those mysterious people put it at the scene of the hostage rescue and deliberately stuck it on the enemy's dead body?"

Regarding the latter question, it has actually been discussed in many places in Tianjin in the past two days. Everyone wants to know what it means, and thus countless versions of speculation have been derived.

But as long as no one comes forward to admit it, there will be no authoritative explanation, and everything is just speculation when everyone has nothing to do.

However, no matter which version of the story is told, there will be countless people supporting it. In fact, the people don’t care about the truth. They just want to vent their anger at being suppressed by the Japanese for so many years.

After all, being able to bring bad luck to a powerful enemy is something that everyone likes to see. Currently, in the teahouses and restaurants of all sizes in Tianjin, everyone is discussing this matter, followed by a burst of laughter, and then more people will join in, and then everyone will laugh even more happily.

But Mr. Li is a wise man. He said with a hint of meaning:

"I saw that picture. To be honest, it was really shocking. Although the painting was average, it was of the ancient Chinese god Xingtian, especially those two lines of poetry: Xingtian dances with his halberd and halberd, his fierce will remains."

"That's a very good point. This represents a spirit, the spirit of our Chinese people who never give up. Even if our heads are chopped off, we will fight to the end."

"It's a pity that I'm old and have lost the passion and enthusiasm of my youth, otherwise I would really like to join them."

"Tie Niu, you must remember that in the future, when our Li family encounters these people, we must treat them with courtesy and provide them with help as much as possible."

"Father, I know nothing will go wrong."
