Xiao Zhangzhuang.
Feng Delin, the leader of Dazhai, said to Zhang Tianhe: "Captain Zhang, I have something to ask in person."
"Master Dazhai, there's no need to be polite. If you have anything to say, please just say it." Zhang Tianhe said.
"I heard that the Mongolian bandits purchased a batch of arms from the Japanese. When they were transported to Fengtian, you and your troops robbed them. Not only did you rob them of all their arms and horses, but you also killed two hundred of them. Come here, but you claim to be Dibei, the captain of our Qingfeng Village Spear Team, and put the blame on our Qingfeng Village, I wonder if this is the case?" Feng Delin paused, and then added, "I miss you Zhang Tian Since He is the leader of a team, you must be brave enough to take on the responsibility. Although the Russian military has provided us with reliable information, and I came here today not to launch an expedition, but to hear what you said personally. .”
"This is absolutely not the case." When Zhang Tianhe heard this, he thought that Old Feng really had great powers and had understood the situation clearly. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous. However, on the surface, he remained calm, " Our security team was established not long ago and we have only a few soldiers. How can we have the strength to do such a big business? The leader of the village must have made a mistake."
"Made a mistake? No way?" Feng Delin said, "Even if I may have made a mistake, the intelligence work of the Russian military is world-class. How could others make mistakes? If you, Captain Zhang, dare to do it, why Don’t you dare to admit it?”
"Master Dazhai, if we did this, I would admit it, but we don't know anything about it. It's really not us. How do you want me to admit it?" Zhang Tianhe said.
"Are you sure it wasn't you?" Feng Delin's face was livid with anger when he heard that Zhang Tianhe was telling lies with his eyes open.
"It wasn't us." Zhang Tianhe insisted.
"Then where did the equipment and horses of the two hundred or so members of your security team come from?"
"Master Dazhai, as the saying goes, fish have their own way, and shrimps have their own way. Don't worry about this."
"Well, since it's not you who did it, I'm going to scold you," Feng Delin raised his voice and said, "Damn it! I never thought that there are such despicable villains in the world. They did things by themselves and dare not He admitted it, but put the blame on our Qingfeng Village. He claimed to be Dibei, the captain of our spear team. As a result, the Mongolian bandits put the blame on us. A few nights ago, the Mongolian bandits led their troops to invade our village. , killed about 500 of our brothers, and Captain Dibei also died in the line of duty. At the same time, he robbed us of 500 to 600 new long rifles, as well as a dozen machine guns, and burned down hundreds of houses. If the brothers had not resisted desperately, , our cottage was almost over. In the final analysis, all of this is because of the frame-up of that villain, bastard! If I find out who did it, I will have to skin him alive!"
Feng Delin started to curse in front of everyone. Unexpectedly, this scholar, who seemed to be quite polite, was also unambiguous when he cursed people.
When Tang Dalong heard this, he was so angry that his internal organs were smoldering and his orifices were on fire. He cursed secretly in his heart and reached out to take out his gun.
Li Sizhe, who was standing next to him, quickly covered his gun with his hand and shook his head.
"I'm going to the latrine!" Tang Dalong couldn't listen anymore, so he left.
Looking at Zhang Tianhe again, he smiled happily and looked calm, as if what Old Feng was scolding was someone else and had nothing to do with him. But then again, if Tianhe refuses to admit it, Feng Delin has nothing to do.
"Master of the Dazhai, seeing that it's noon, I'd like to invite you and your brothers to have a meal together in the humble house. There will be little wine and no food. However, your stomach must be full. You can't let your brothers go back hungry." Zhang Tianhe said.
"No need, Captain Zhang, well done to you! Today is your sister's big day. You have a lot to do, so I won't bother you. I'll visit you another day." Feng Delin said angrily.
After he finished speaking, he got on his horse and led everyone away in the dust.
Everyone watched Feng Delin and his party walking away, and then Tang Dalong came over and said, "Captain, why do you have to swallow your anger like this? There are only about fifty of them. I'll just call the brothers and take care of them all." Look at how crazy he is."
"Brother Tang, you don't understand this," Li Sizhe said, "As the saying goes, a little impatience will ruin a big plan, and a person who knows the current affairs is a hero. Our Captain Zhang is not afraid of him, but on the one hand, today is our sister's happy day. If something happens It is not very auspicious to fight with weapons. In addition, although more than 500 people died in Qingfeng Village in the past few days, their village has three to four thousand troops, which does not affect their overall strength. Our security team is It was established not long ago and the disparity in strength is huge, how can we compete with others?"
"Is it okay to be scolded by him in vain?" Tang Dalong said, "I can't swallow this breath."
"He didn't name anyone, so you just think he's farting, right?" Li Sizhe said.
Everyone was happy when they heard it.
"It's almost noon. Everyone must be hungry. Come back with me for dinner," Zhang Tianhe said. "It's time to eat and drink. Don't let Lao Feng's arrival affect our mood."
After the wedding, Zhang Tianhe, his sister and brother-in-law made some calculations: Feng Delin from Qingfeng Village, Tian Xiaoting from Tianjia Village, Jin Xiangyang from Zhonganbao, Li Fengxiang from Baiyun Haohe Jewelry Store, and Judge Du from Heiyun Village, each family would give gifts. Five thousand taels of silver, that's twenty-five thousand taels. Plus the gifts from relatives, friends, fathers and fellow villagers, there are about forty thousand taels of silver in total.
Zhang Tianhe discussed with his sister and brother-in-law and put all the money into the treasury to use as military pay for the security team.
In addition to the 20,000 taels of silver that Qin Erye and Wu Dalang went down to collect, the total was about 60,000 taels of silver. With this money, Zhang Tianhe felt much more at ease.
Chenjiayu, security team headquarters.
On this day, Tang Dalong ran over and said to Zhang Tianhe: "Captain, as per your request, all the men and horses have been recruited. Now, we have a total of 100 cavalry and 200 infantry."
"Okay, good job! Thank you for your hard work." Zhang Tianhe was also very happy when he heard this.
"Captain, I have carefully selected these people one by one. They are all like wolves and tigers, and are in great shape."
"That's good, we want those with good quality, and you have to train them all into special forces in the shortest possible time, one against ten."
"Yes, captain." Tang Dalong replied.
"I asked you to make ten waist knives, have you finished making them?" Zhang Tianhe asked.
"It's all built."
"Bring over six handfuls first."
"Yes." Tang Dalong said.
"Well, let's do this. At seven o'clock tomorrow morning, everyone will gather at the school military field. I have something to say." Zhang Tianhe said.
"Yes, captain, I will go and inform everyone and make arrangements."
The next morning, Zhang Tianhe got up early, had breakfast, and came to the school military field.
Zhang Tianhe took out his pocket watch and saw that the time was six-fifty.
The weather is sunny today, the wind is gentle, and the sun has risen slowly from the east.
All the members of the security team have arrived, and no one is left behind. They are divided into three square teams and stand in line. Each square team has about a hundred people, uniformly dressed and neatly lined up.
Zhang Tianhe looked at everyone who was full of vigor and vitality, like tigers descending from the mountain. He nodded and expressed satisfaction with the recruitment work of Tang Dalong and others.
When everyone saw that Zhang Tianhe had slowly walked up to the high platform in front of the colonel's military field, the whole place fell silent and listened to the captain's instructions.
Zhang Tianhe walked to the center of the stage, faced everyone, and said: "Brothers, many of you are new faces and have just joined our big family of Chenjiayu Security Team. I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone."
The audience burst into applause.
"Brothers, from the moment you step into the gate of the security team, you are no longer ordinary people. You are a member of our Chenjiayu security team and a brave warrior. Today, the Qing government is corrupt and weak. Incompetent, foreign powers are ready to invade our country and carve up our territory. The international situation is not optimistic." Zhang Tianhe looked at everyone and continued, "Let go of the distant ones, let's talk about the close ones, our surrounding environment It is also very complicated. There is Tsarist Russia in the north and Japan in the east. Moreover, Mongolian bandits are rampant. A few days ago, the Mongolian bandits suddenly attacked Qingfeng Village, burning, killing and looting. They committed all kinds of evil and killed more than 500 people in one night. , the methods are extremely cruel, but, even so, each Aozi still embezzles and attacks each other. This is like a comparison. The Mongolian bandits are equivalent to the Qiang Qin during the Warring States Period, and each Aozi is equivalent to The six kingdoms of Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Han, and Wei knew that Qin was very powerful and that they were no match for one another, but they always had their own agendas and could not unite. They always destroyed their foundations, removed their barriers, and fought against each other. Fight and annex each other. Therefore, we must always maintain a high degree of vigilance. We must not only be prepared for the attack of the Mongolian bandits, but also pay close attention to the movements of the surrounding Aozi. People never leave their guns, and guns never leave their people. We are always ready to fight. Did you hear this? "
"Yes, Captain." Everyone replied in unison.
"In order to avoid bloodshed and sacrifice during the war, you must work tirelessly, seize the time to train, and develop real skills," Zhang Tianhe said, "I have seen that everyone's physical fitness is very good, as long as you are willing to work hard
Husband, it won’t be long before you both become martial arts experts and shooting masters. "
"Now let's ask Li Sizhe to read out the organizational discipline and rules and regulations of our security team." Zhang Tianhe said.
Later, Li Sizhe took the stage and read it twice.
"Brothers, we are the security team, we are here to protect the local people, not the beards. Therefore, each of us must abide by these rules and regulations. If anyone dares to violate these organizational disciplines, don't blame me for turning against them." Zhang Tianhe said.
"Captain, please rest assured that we will abide by the rules." Everyone replied.
"Next, I announce: the first team is the cavalry team, captain Tang Yulong, deputy captain Cai Yongzhen, the second team is the infantry team, captain Li Sizhe, deputy captain Dongfeng, the third team is also the infantry team, captain Liu Bodu, deputy captain Hong Among them, Huo Tingying is the leader of the first patrol team, Fan Yong is the leader of the second patrol team, Chen Jia and the former Zhongwumen are the personal guards, and Chen Jia is the guard captain."
After Zhang Tianhe read out the appointment letter, everyone took their seats.
