My dad's lieutenant seems to be a time traveler

Chapter 24 I Suspect You Are Reading a Fake History Book

26,

The Tong family is a big family, of course there is a watchtower for the whole family to hide from the bandits.

This watchtower was built in the courtyard of the family. It is said that the bricks used are the same as those of Xuzhou City.After Mr. Tong got old, he had to sleep in the watchtower every night.

However, tonight, when the entire Tong family yard was surrounded by my dad's troops, the watchtower seemed to be a ready-made big urn, and people hid in it like turtles in the urn.

They must have never imagined that when the watchtower was built, my father only got two German guns, one in front and the other behind, to block the exits on both sides of the watchtower.

I said that it would be all over after such a bombardment, so why not come out first and have a good talk with my dad face to face.I know my old man, if he doesn’t do business that loses money, he must have an account in his heart. He didn’t care about asking for his head before, and he was still thinking about getting married and getting married. It's over.

I talked a lot in Xuxu, but Yingzi didn't respond to me here, and dragged me away as much as possible.We climbed over the top of the wall and went in, but we walked around the carriages and horses at home, got through the secret passage and went around, and entered a bunker inside the watchtower.

This place was built like a tomb.Along the way, some drinking water was piled up, as well as smoked meat slices and salted fish.The smell was so strong before we got close, we had to cover our faces and hold our breath.

I couldn't take it anymore, so I asked Yingzi: "Your grandpa sleeps here?"

Yingzi said: Even if the watchtower above was destroyed by artillery and he was buried here, the food below would be enough for him and his aunt to eat for three to five years.It has been many years since the Nian army rebelled, and he always feels that it is impossible not to take precautions, and he must make plans early.He has always been like this, he has been sleeping in the pile of salted fish, and he will not live with us.

Walking through the salted fish trail, I almost couldn't hold my breath.Yingzi hurriedly knocked on the door of the inner room, called her grandfather, and shouted: Young Marshal Cao is here to pick you up with me!

It took a lot of yelling before I heard the movement of pulling the door bolt and opening the brass lock inside.

Yingzi said: Don't look at the door is not big, there are ten locks in total.

They drove one by one, very slowly.The clash of brass echoed in the bunker, which also sounded unsettling.

Yingzi heaved a sigh of relief, turned to me and said: "Seeing my grandpa, do you know what to do?"

Before I could reply, she put her hand on the holster around my waist and whispered to me: Just say you take him out, he knows who you are and thinks you are facing us, so he will naturally be willing to go out with you .Then find an opportunity to shoot him dead.

She said: Cao Shiyue, let him go first when the time comes, and you walk behind him, just shoot once.When your business tonight is over, so is my mission here.

The words came into my ears, and I really thought I had heard it wrong.

I asked: What did you say?You want me, me, me to kill Tong... your grandfather?

I poked my chest a lot, so that she wouldn't read it wrong.

Yingzi patted my holster and said: "The door is about to open, you can shoot right now."But old man Tong was very careful, the one who opened the door would definitely be my aunt, and he would hide behind.

I said no, why should I kill your grandfather?

Yingzi frowned and looked at me: You don't want to kill him, why are you willing to follow me when I call you?Why did Adjutant Zhang leave voluntarily when the situation came to an end?You came here just to kill him!It is clearly written in the history books I have studied that it is you, Cao Shiyue, tonight!He shot the old man of the Tong family with his own hands!

Um... I think there is a big misunderstanding here.

Yingzi and I went back to their Tong's house, obviously wanting to do something good.Yingzi said that it was up to me, and I thought it was probably just to borrow my face to save face, open a door, let someone in, and relieve the siege.

I have never done anything directly with my dad before, and I have never really resisted his orders.I thought about what I could do. On the way here, more or less, I really thought about it.

As for what the people they traveled through know, what books they have read...whether it is a history book or a heavenly book, I have no chance to peep.I don't know how the above records and how to say about me.The shooting of old master Tong in their history book is the same me as the me who doesn't want to kill anyone at this moment?

Alas I can't know, and don't care at all at the moment.

Right now, all I know is that this situation is different from what I thought!

So I took a deep breath and told the truth: Sister Tong's family, you better not want it... Otherwise, I will go and tell my dad in a while, I want to marry you as my wife, and your Tong family is also willing.Of course, it's fake, I'll save your family first.

Sakura stared at me.Her round little cheeks flushed red.

Cao Shiyue, you are crazy!She punched the wall next to her.This punch was like hitting a brick with cotton, so naturally it made no sound.

I murmured: Are you more crazy?Why do you want me to kill your grandfather?What did your grandpa do? I'm going to kill him?

The sound of brass tapping quickened.Yingzi probably knew it well, knowing that the lock here was about to be unlocked, and the door was about to open.She grabbed me and shook me, and asked: You obviously already know that the assassin who was going to kill your father that day was arranged by Mrs. Tong!Isn't that enough capital punishment?

I shook my head: My father has the final say on whether to die or not.

She said again: The assassin who escaped from prison before was also arranged by Mrs. Tong—well, you can’t say that, in fact, it was a prominent person in Tongshan County. The big guys joined in and invited them from outside. An acquaintance of the old man.Your father's adjutants were all beaten to death. You should be aware of such a big matter?

I shook my head again: I really don't know.I only know that brother Sheng became my father's adjutant that night.

Yingzi's face turned from red to black, and she looked like she was about to go crazy.I hurriedly reached out to cover my gun holster, and tried hard to cover it, lest she lift the cover of the holster and snatch my gun out to do business.

While clutching my gun holster, I tried to persuade her: Sister Tong, think about it that I am a daily copyer, and I don't embarrass anyone. Do you have any other ways, let's discuss it together?In any case, your grandfather did not collude with bandits.I'm not good at killing people. Look, I've never killed a chicken... What if I miss it?What if I get hit by your grandpa?

Yingzi shouted: If I tell you, the Tong family has indeed been in collusion with the bandits all along! !

At this moment, the door to the inner room of his bunker suddenly opened.The one who opened the door was not the concubine of the old man of the Tong family, but the old man himself.

The old man didn't ask for help this time, nor did he have a cane.

Instead—holding a sharp Japanese sword in his hand, he leaned on the door with one hand.

Because Yingzi's last guttural voice just now was not low, it could be heard clearly inside and outside the door.

Old Mrs. Tong at the door didn't say a word.He looked us both up and down, and immediately raised the knife.

All I know is that Mr. Tong, a veteran of the three dynasties, was born in the martial arts in the former Qing Dynasty. He killed Changmao and entered Jinling City.But no one has ever told me that he couldn't get promoted because of the cruel massacre of the city and the people's grievances.

As for the old man, his body is really tough.Although he is now an octogenarian, he still has the strength to slash people with a knife.

Well, how to escape from the narrow tunnel full of salted fish, sausage and bacon, this kind of experience is usually not available to everyone.

After that night, dare I boast, I have.
