Wild North America 1846

Chapter 23

After sending Gai Wangshan away, Li Cha walked to the table, inserted the well-maintained revolver into the holster, cleaned up the things on the table, and then raised his head.

It was a handsome face with starry eyes like black ink. At the beginning, he looked at the blue sky outside the window with thoughtful eyes.

According to what Gai Wangshan said, it should be John Sutter, who is in charge of the new town, to suppress it, otherwise this situation would not be possible, and the Agreement Hall would not have that much influence.

One wave did not go, and another wave rose again, which made Li Cha feel the real heavy pressure.

these days
The news from the cavalry patrolling the American River is not optimistic either. There are constant conflicts between the white gold digger team and the Chinese gold diggers in the Grape Valley. There are even more than a dozen cases a day. The police are frequently sent, which makes the patrol horses very busy. .

It can be seen that someone is deliberately provoking trouble.

in the valley

Recently, under the pretense of buying cattle, sheep, and goat goods, some dubious people come in to probe their brains. There are Chinese and white people. Basically, they can't escape the forces of Xinshi Town or Fangcaodi.

Regarding Datanghui, a newly rising Chinese force, except for Fangcaodi's ambiguous attitude, most of them showed alienation and unconcealable malice.

It's not surprising when you think about it, no one wants to share their cake with the newcomers, and it's a bunch of Chinese.

If Li Cha wants to make a fortune in North America, he can only rely on a Chinese-dominated base, so the key point at the moment is to wipe out the local evil forces headed by the Agreement Hall, and become the undisputed leader of the Chinese .

Only by uniting all the forces that can be united can we make a difference.

The world today is in the midst of the first industrial revolution, hot weapons dominate wars and regional conflicts, Americans frantically slaughtered tough Indian tribes in the east and the vast middle, and this trend will soon spread to the wild west.

No matter how powerful a person is, it is only a drop in the ocean in this social context.

"It seems that it's time to show off your strength." Li Cha's expression became resolute, and he said to himself.

twilight
Before the gate of Shanhaiguan was closed, a group of more than twenty riders drove out of the pass and headed towards the distant new town.

In the night, the lights of the new town light up, the shops are closed, and the number of children playing on the street is much less. Some men with bread under their shoulders are in a hurry, thinking of going home as soon as possible, with their families under the bright kerosene lamp Shared dinner.

On some special occasions, such as taverns, gambling stalls, and brothels, the lights are brightly lit, ushering in the busiest time of the day.

Old Barr Tavern

The smog was lingering under the dim light, and women's laughter and screams came from upstairs from time to time, and the seduced white cowboy who was drinking and playing cards downstairs was very itchy, uttered a few foul words from time to time, and then slammed the cards on the table. superior.

The scantily clad barmaid snapped open the cowboy's hand and cursed loudly; "Go away, you poor man, don't you know the rules in the tavern that you can only see but not touch? If you dare to do anything, I will call If you don't want to be beaten up and thrown into the back alley, behave yourself."

The stern scolding from the waiter in the bar drew wild laughter from the rough cowboys around, and a guy who won money playing cards grabbed the banknotes in his hand and waved them and shouted; "Oh... dear Lizzie, I really love You're dead, let's go upstairs and have a good time?"

"Pay first, idiot, and have to wait until after get off work."

"Hahahaha... no problem, you belong to me tonight, baby."

"You're thinking farts, betting you'll end up broke, go sleep with your cow, fuck off!"

"Oh..."

The cowboys stomped their feet and slapped the table excitedly, raised their wine glasses and yelled wildly. The male hormones in the tavern seemed to be overflowing strongly, and dozens of men in heat were already excited.

Li Ji twisted her fat buttocks and walked to the bar counter. She was a plump middle-aged woman, with most of her tall breasts exposed, and the deep gully made these cowboys thirsty and drank beer after glass of beer. .

"Good job, baby." Standing at the counter, Old Barr was wiping the wine glass with a towel, and said something softly while turning sideways.

Li Ji threw the tray in her hand on the counter, looked back at the cowboys who were full of longing eyes, winked at the group, and then flirted with wine red hair coquettishly, but said in her mouth; "You For more money, old Barr, I don't want to do it for nothing."

"Don't forget, when you came from Kansas with nothing, I took you and your 10-year-old son, Lizzie, don't go too far."

"This tavern needs me, doesn't it?"

"Okay, I'll think about it."

When it came to money, the muscles on Old Barr's fat face twitched violently, but he had to succumb to the reality that these bold and coquettish waitresses were really needed in the tavern.

At this moment

The door of the tavern was pushed open, and six cowboys with revolvers hanging on their waists came in one after another from the outside. When they looked up, they saw an oriental face under the cowboy hat.

This caused people in the tavern to look over one after another, and the noisy and lively voices suddenly became much quieter.

"Bah, I hate these braided orientals, they're everywhere like the plague."

"Don't make trouble for yourself, Cole, I heard that two groups of Orientals are going to fight recently, you don't want to get involved, do you?"

"Damn, I hate these orientals, and dirty Mexicans and damn Indians, these heathens should go to hell."

"Okay, stop whining, it's not their fault that you lose money at poker, it's your hands that stink."

"I don't believe that your luck has always been so good, another card..."

The six Chinese gunmen headed by Liu Wu came here. Amidst the hostile eyes and discussions from the surrounding white cowboys, they walked to an empty table and sat down pretending not to care.

Liu Wu knocked on the table and said loudly, "Six glasses of beer, and something else you can eat."

"Fuck, there must be nothing good for them as soon as they come." Old Barr couldn't help but swear, but he couldn't openly drive the guests away. After complaining, he gestured to Li Ji and asked her to bring the beer. Bring it over with something to eat.

The news that six Chinese gunmen entered the Old Barr's Tavern quickly spread like wildfire.

The key point is that these six people are all traitors of the Agreement Hall, and now they have become members of the Datang Society's personal guards, and it was Liu Wu who led them into the town.

after hearing the news

The agreement hall immediately exploded, and the leader of the young gang, Lin Zhanyuan, led nearly 30 people to rush over in a hurry, ready to catch these traitors in one go.

Then the incense hall was opened, and they were all beaten to death with sticks and thrown into the bay.

Some winking white cowboys didn't know their feelings well. After Liu Wu and his party entered the tavern, they left in twos and threes, which quickly calmed down the tavern's business.

Knowing is not to say that there is nothing to be afraid of, but that it is unnecessary.

Once the Chinese gunmen from the Agreement Hall rush over, there is a high probability that a gun battle will break out between the two sides. When the time comes, bullets will fly, who the hell cares if you are white or Chinese?

If you have a good drink and then you are beaten to death and injured, who should you go to for justice?

Seeing this scene in Old Barr's eyes, his whole complexion became as black as the bottom of a pot. If he hadn't controlled his temper, he really wanted to pull out the gun in the counter and kill all these restless guys.

Oh, God!What am I doing wrong?
