Chapter 43
In the afternoon, Tang Dalong saw that people gradually dispersed.
He pulled Zhang Tianhe aside and said, "Good brother, I'm here to ask you something."
"Brother, what's going on? It's mysterious, tell me." Zhang Tianhe saw that his expression was different from usual and didn't know what he was up to.
"That's the female bodyguard who came with Tian Xiaoting today. What's her name?"
"You're talking about her. Her name is Li Erniang, and people in the world call her 'Mother Yaksha'. What's wrong?" Zhang Tianhe said.
"'Mother Yasha'? This is a good name, I like it." Tang Dalong said.
"Brother, what do you mean when you say this?"
"Good brother, it's like this. I'm not afraid of your jokes. I'm still single. Look at my height, her build, my appearance, and her appearance. Do you think she and I are a perfect match?
?" Tang Dalong said a little embarrassed.
"What? Brother, I see that you are quite honest, and you are somewhat similar to Fan Yong. It turns out that you are both honest people and not simple and honest." Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianhe pointed at him and said with a smile, "In this way, you
It’s just because I have a crush on him.”
"Good brother, even if that's what you mean."
"Forget it? What do you mean by forgetting it? Tell me clearly, do you like her or not?" Zhang Tianhe asked.
"Yes, I am attracted to it." Tang Dalong said weakly.
"Then it's over." Zhang Tianhe clapped his hands and laughed.
"I just don't know if they have a family, and what their attitude is towards me. I don't know if they can like me."
"Then what do you want me to do for you?" Zhang Tianhe asked.
"What I mean is, aren't you and her master Tian Xiaoting brother and sister? Why don't you ask her to help me negotiate an agreement? What do you think?" Tang Dalong said.
"Okay, if you didn't tell me earlier today, the master and the servant have already left. Let's talk about it later when we have the opportunity," Zhang Tianhe said, "I guess we are inseparable. Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me."
It’s on me.”
"That's good, I'll kowtow to you three times, brother, and after the job is done, I'll treat you to a drink." Tang Dalong said, lying on the ground and kowtowing.
"Oh, I really didn't realize that you are still a guy who values sex over friends!" Zhang Tianhe laughed.
At night, Chen Jia took the medicine Xing Lizheng prescribed for him. The fever on his head gradually subsided and he woke up.
"Sir, are you awake?" Huo Tingying said excitedly when she saw Chen Jia had woken up.
Chen Jia opened his eyes, looked at him and Zhen Sifei, and nodded. He turned around and saw Zhang Tianhe and the other brothers. He understood that Zhang Tianhe must have saved him.
He braced himself, climbed down from the bed, and kowtowed three times to Zhang Tianhe.
"Brother, you don't need to thank me. It was mainly Brother Tang and Ninth Brother who saved you this time. Brother Tang negotiated with Wang Xiong many times for your matter and handed over five thousand taels of silver.
You are dead, and they will not let you go. With no choice, Ninth Brother risked beheading to carry you out of prison. The two of them have given up all their positions and positions in the village for you.
"Everything," Zhang Tianhe said, "if it hadn't been for the two of them to save you, I wouldn't have been able to save you even if I had all the skills."
When Chen Jia heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed to Tang Dalong and Li Sizhe and said, "Thank you both for your life-saving grace and kindness. I can't help but cause trouble to everyone. However, this money is spent too much."
It’s too much, five thousand taels of silver, how can I afford to repay it?”
The two men quickly helped him up and said: "We are all brothers, there is no need for this. As long as you are safe, it will be fine. Your injury is not healed yet. Take good care of it. There is no money or money. Those are just things outside the body. Throw them away."
No matter how much you earn, don’t worry about it.”
"Just because of this incident, my brother Tianhe's house was robbed, and the local people were also implicated. How can I feel at ease?"
"Brother, this may be a fatal disaster. I can't blame you. Don't think about anything. Just rest and recover. You are better alive than anything else." Zhang Tianhe said.
Huo Tingying reported to Chen Jia that the heroes discussed the establishment of the security team today. He agreed with both hands and expressed his willingness to join the security team. He also said that if Zhang Tianhe agreed, he would be willing to join their Zhongwu Hall
All the original team members came over to work.
Zhang Tianhe knew that these people, who usually practiced martial arts, had much better physical fitness than ordinary people, and that in general, they were pretty good people, so he immediately agreed.
Starting from the next day, Wang Laohao led the elder local clan chiefs, Qin Erye, and Wu Dalang to Gaowei Town and the surrounding ten villages and eight villages to raise silver. Everything was done on a voluntary basis, and those who were willing to pay could do so.
There is no limit to the amount, and those who are unwilling to pay will not be forced. All the money collected will be registered and then put into the treasury. Wang Laohao will be responsible for the accounting for the time being.
Within a few days, I successfully raised seven to eight thousand taels of silver.
A few days later, Jin Xiangyang from Zhong'anbao, Li Fengxiang from Centenary Haohe Jewelry Store, Tian Xiaoting from Tianjiazhai, and Judge Du from Heiyun Village each sent people to send 5,000 taels of silver, totaling 20,000 taels, to support
Form a security team.
Zhang Tianhe announced that once members of the security team are hired, each member will be given a monthly salary of ten taels of silver, pork stewed with tofu, beef stewed vermicelli, white flour steamed buns, and white rice.
As soon as the news came out, there were hundreds of people from the local area who came to sign up to join the security team. Zhang Tianhe, Tang Dalong and others screened and screened, selected and selected, and finally recruited 30 young people.
With the addition of strong young men as new members and the original members of the Zhongwu Sect, the number has expanded to about fifty people.
On this day, Zhang Tianhe held a meeting for everyone.
The first thing: Zhang Tianhe announced the ten major organizational disciplines of the security team. There are no rules and no rules. Now that there are more people, it is inevitable that the good and the bad will be mixed, and the ideas will be different. Li Sizhe read it in public: 1. No molestation or rape of women.
When visiting a brothel, secondly, you are not allowed to break into and rob a house or use the people's needles and threads privately. Thirdly, you are not allowed to fight among yourself. Fourthly, you are united as one. When encountering an enemy situation, you are never allowed to ignore death, etc.
"Brothers, our friendship belongs to our friendship and our system belongs to the system. If we want to protect the local people and live up to their high expectations for us, we will become bigger and stronger in the future and everyone can find a good future. I believe
Each of us must abide by the announced rules and regulations. Who dares not to listen? When the time comes, don’t blame me, Zhang, for being ruthless."
"Yes, Captain." Everyone said in unison.
The second thing: build a base area.
"In the past, there were only a few of us, so we had to make do with my place. Now there are more people, and they are all crowded into my place. The place is too small. Therefore, I decided to re-select a location and build our base."
"Excuse me, captain, where do you plan to build our base?" Wu Dalang asked.
"The location of the base is very important, as it affects our future development, and even life and death. In ancient times, the Great Qin Dynasty, located in Guanzhong in the west, had the Hangu Pass, which had always blocked the six eastern countries from the pass. It could be attacked when advancing, and defended when retreating. Qin Shihuang
This was one of the main reasons why the six countries were able to be successfully unified in the end; the Ming Dynasty had Shanhaiguan, which kept the Qing soldiers out. If it hadn't been for Wu Sangui leading Qing soldiers into the pass, how could the Manchus have entered the Central Plains?"
When everyone heard this, they nodded in praise.
"Recently, I discovered that there is a place called Chenjiayu between our Xiaozhangzhuang and Gaowu Town. This place is a natural pass. It is backed by mountains in the north and has a natural city wall in the south. It is low in the south and high in the north. But inside
But it is very spacious. Even if we build a training ground inside, it will be more than enough to build thousands of houses. We only need to simply repair the city wall and build a strong gate. And, the most rare thing is that inside
There is also a large natural cave that can accommodate even tens of thousands of people. What is even more fortunate is that there is spring water in the cave. The water is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is simply a natural storage room and air-raid shelter. In the future,
If there is a war, if we close the gate, even if there are thousands of troops, they will not be able to do anything to us. As the saying goes, one man can guard the gate, but ten thousand men cannot open it!"
"Captain, I didn't expect you to know so many things and think so deeply!" Wu Dalang said, "I have been to that place before. It is indeed what the captain said, but I only went there to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
, but he didn’t think about it as much as the captain did.”
After hearing this, everyone was delighted and unanimously agreed to build a base there.
"Ninth brother, you are an international student at the Russian Military Artillery Academy. This task is entrusted to you. From a long-term perspective, you should repair it according to the artillery defenses. The stronger the better!"
"Yes, captain, please rest assured, I will do my best!" Li Sizhe said.
The third thing: train new players.
"Chen A, how is your injury?" Zhang Tianhe looked at Chen A, "Does your body still hurt?"
"Much better, 70% to 80% recovered." Chen Jia replied.
"That's good. These newly recruited team members lack training. In order to avoid bloodshed and sacrifice during the war, we must step up training and train each of them into special forces. One is equivalent to ten. Among us, Brother Tang and your kung fu
It’s the best. I’ll leave the training to you two.”
"Yes!" Chen Jia and Tang Dalong replied.
"In addition, I decided to divide all the team members into four squads, and patrol in our security area day and night. Tang Dalong led one group, Li Sizhe led one group, Dongfeng and Hongzhong led one group, and Chen Jia led one group
Groups, always keep one group on patrol. If there is an emergency, report it immediately, and the other three groups will train at home," Zhang Tianhe said, "We must pay close attention to patrols and training, and we must not relax at all."
"Yes!" everyone agreed.
"Wu Dalang, there is another special thing that I want to leave to you."
"Please give me the captain's orders." Wu Dalang stood up and said.
"Sun Qing, our county government official, is your brother-in-law, right?" Zhang Tianhe asked.
"Yes, Captain."
"Then I would like you to go over and tell the county government officials about your difficulties. Just say that the reason why we set up a security team is because of our difficulties and that we have to do it as a last resort."
"Captain, don't worry about this. I will take care of this. I will say that our security team is to protect the environment and the people, not to go around killing people and setting fires. As a local official, he has no ability to protect the local people."
People, we have to protect ourselves in our own way. I asked him not to trouble us when he has nothing to do. Not only that, but if there is any trouble from above, he should inform us in time so that we can take corresponding preventive measures." Wu Dalang
He said plausibly, "Look, everyone, what do I say?"
Seeing that he was talking like the immediate boss of the county government, everyone smiled and said, "That's great!"
"Who is that!" Zhang Tianhe shouted.
"Here! Please give the captain's orders!" That person stood up and saluted Zhang Tianhe.
"Don't be idle. Go out for a walk when you have time and see if you can collect some valuable information." Zhang Tianhe said.
