Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 343 Kill the chicken and scare the monkey

"As I said last time, Mizina is close to large rivers and has many small rivers. The terrain is good. It can be developed into farms in the future and serve as the main food-producing area in the future. Although it is not as good as the natural conditions in the south, it is still very good. "

"Chicken farms and lumber mills can be opened nearby to provide employment. It will become a livable place in the future. After all, it is close to home and is less dangerous. Family members who come later will be settled here first."

Everyone nodded. As long as the family members come, the first step is to get here. It is indeed safe, easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you watch a bridge, no one can cross.

"The small town of Pagang has a population of nearly 3,000. These are all resources. In the future, commerce can be the mainstay here, with mining as the supplement. We should seize the time to contact several nearby forces for joint development and construction. Of course, if they do not cooperate, Just make him cooperate."

"Chief, I don't even need to fight. If I drive the tank around, I'll probably be scared to death."

Zhou Dayong was very happy. He drove one today, but unfortunately he didn't fire a shot.

"Don't just think about good things. People are hiding in the mountains, and your tank can't drive up there. Remember, we must unite them as much as possible. As long as they join our construction, get paid, and buy better things, Can he continue to stay on the mountain?"

"The chief wants to trick them all into serving us."

"This word is wrong. We want them to feel the new life and accept it willingly. As long as they don't resist, we will try not to do anything."

"Immediately carry out training and ideological education after recruitment, so that they understand that guarding here is guarding their homeland."

"I suggest calling them leaders within the team and leaders outside the team."

It was the same old tune again, Zhu Xuefeng nodded. "your advice?"

"Now let's talk about this side. Now we have advanced dozens of kilometers to the west in one breath, and we are one step closer to Zhare. Since Pagang has been occupied in advance, this lifeline should also be opened in advance."

"First of all, the names for you in the team are too confusing now. I suggest you unify them."

"Do you have any other ideas? Let's talk about it."

Seeing the other three people nodding in unison again, Zhu Xuefeng had no choice.

"Another one, by the end of this year and the beginning of next year, we must cultivate an elite team of about ten people. At the same time, we must figure out the road conditions leading here next summer."

"This is very arduous and important. As long as we control this place, all future construction and development, including combat supplies, will come from here. It can be said that this is also one of our lifelines in the future."

"What about the road from Mizina to home? Are you still in a hurry?"

"Let them know that with their wages, they can drink better wine, eat better food, and live in more beautiful houses. Will there be anyone who doesn't come down from the mountain?"

"Boss, don't worry, we know what to do, but I still have two ideas. Please support me from the leadership."

"We just want them to be tied to our interests, so that all promotion work can be efficient."

"Boss, if this is the case, we only have sixty-three combatants, and we can't take care of them at all. The stall has suddenly grown so much."

Zhu Xuefeng looked at Song Yan approvingly. "The commander-in-chief said it very well just now. Here I have made a simple planning diagram for you to expand your ideas. One way is to divide the fields, and to recruit workers and employees. As long as they can gain benefits from the construction, will support us.”

"What construction needs to be carried out is included in the plan. We will look at and discuss it together in the future. When the conditions are mature, I will find someone to build a hydropower station on the big river in Mizina. It is such a waste that the water flows like this all year round."

"The south hasn't noticed us yet. We can still use this time to carry out trade, and we can also use their ports to import and export materials. But one day they will discover us, so we must have this outlet to the sea."

Everyone laughed. Zhou Xingguo touched his head and felt happy himself.

"Chief, that can is called Yixiang. It's full of good meat. One bite will make your mouth full of oil, haha."

Seeing everyone laughing, Zhu Xuefeng also said with a smile, "To attract them with this kind of thing and my thousands of years of delicacies, after eating this, are they still willing to live a life of eating wild fruits every day?" A day when you don’t have enough to eat?”

"Don't worry, you can get a lot of canned food like this, and it's not expensive. How about it? Do you have confidence?"

Zhu Xuefeng turned to look at the other three people, and all three nodded.

Song Yan and Li Xiaojun nodded. They had already discussed this issue when they were in Xiangjiang. When the size was small and the mountains were not exposed, they could use this line to carry out trade with Xiangjiang. Once the south noticed that a large force had emerged in the north, This trade route will inevitably be cut off.

"Of course, for those who are stubborn, we don't have so much energy to enlighten them."

"Okay then, I'll do as you suggest."

Zhu Xuefeng didn't like either of these terms. He rejected them at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he let it go.

"You know I'm very pressed for time now. Forget it, being able to listen to advice is an important way to grow. I accept advice."

There was a thick layer of white grease on the top of the can, and solid meat underneath. The food made the Bald Eagle soldiers vomit when they saw it. It was too greasy, but for Song Yan and the others now, it was an extremely rare delicacy.

"Well, the leader is right. Leader, according to this idea, should we divide the fields first so that they have the motivation to protect them?"

The canned meat that Zhu Xuefeng was talking about came from Fuso's base. It was produced during World War II and had a huge backlog. Even though it was still in use decades later, it was a color-changing anti-personnel weapon that the Bald Eagle troops heard about.

Several people nodded excitedly. Indeed, according to this method, no one can resist the temptation. It will also make it easier to return to one's heart and facilitate the expansion of the team.

"You can't park there either. The initial requirements are not high. It just needs to be able to open to traffic. This is quite difficult. Take your time."

Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile, "I hope this day will come. I won't announce this yet. I will tell you in advance when the time comes."

Li Xiaojun actually took the lead in applauding, and several others applauded.

"Chief, this has reached Asan's door. Are we going to build at Asan's place?"

"We have conveyed our willingness to cooperate with the four ethnic groups among the repatriated miners and women. If nothing else, there should be news tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. This is related to the external relations of our entire team. I suggest you stay. Host the talks.”

"Your commander-in-chief has already considered this. We must add more people, but they must be reliable. We cannot rush this. If we move too quickly, there will be consequences. If we have more people, our combat effectiveness will be reduced, so it is better to lack than to overdo it."

Li Xiaojun raised a question. It is about 80 kilometers from Mizina. We also have to take care of Mizina and have to explore two routes. This is obviously too busy.

Zhu Xuefeng looked at Song Yan again unexpectedly. "Say it, I support whatever is reasonable."

"By the way, while constructing, don't forget the phased tasks. We must find out the route to Zhare as soon as possible. It is best to open it up in two to three years and open an outlet to the sea in Zhare."

"Didn't we send thousands of canned meats this time? How about it? It tastes good."

"Okay, okay, I can be considered a young man after being captured by you guys for a few days. By the way, I have to make arrangements to pick up my family members as soon as possible. The day before we can reunite and the day before we can feel at ease. If there are many people, we can go back in batches. Try not to reduce the combat effectiveness. I think , arrangements can be made after the talks between the several parties are completed."

"Chief, many of these miners are local Chinese, and many of them have lost their families. Can you recruit some first to strengthen the team?"

"I won't ask you to screen it yourself. By the way, how many miners are left?"

Zhou Dayong reported, "Of the 334 people, less than were released. The rest expressed their willingness to work as long as they were paid. Many of them used to work here for wages. It was only after those with the higher surnames took over that they were willing to work." Pay the wages."

"Well, we don't need to be too harsh on wages, as is the case everywhere, but mining doesn't require so many people. Just leave a few dozen people to dig slowly, and other prisoners must also participate in the construction."

"By the way, of the twenty-two women, except for two who returned to the village, none of them dared to go back. Among them, two of them came to visit relatives from our side and were arrested." It is indeed difficult for these people to go back. It is very possible to go back. He would have to be executed by the tribe. Zhu Xuefeng looked at Song Yan with a smile.

"How about giving these people to the Feng sisters and putting them to good use for me."

...

The town is still the same, except that they are temporarily unable to go out. The locals quickly calmed down from the panic in the early morning, and the news that the mining area was occupied by a group of more ruthless outsiders quickly spread.

There are not many people doing business outside, but they are not allowed to leave for the time being. It is said that it will be fine in a few days. A few of them are not convinced, but when they see the machine guns set up at the intersection, they accept the suggestion. In this charming town, many people Enjoy the beauty of nature for a few days.

"Report!" The sentry on duty came back to report. Messengers from the four major villages came overnight. They should have seen that the people in the mining area had been changed, and their own tribesmen were released to explore the bottom.

"Bring them to the backyard. I'll wait for them in the lobby. Commander Song and I will come together to receive them."

There were quite a few messengers, more than ten people from the four families came in total. As the sentries walked into the camp nervously, they were a little frightened when they saw the weapons and ammunition arranged in an orderly manner and the heavy and light machine guns.

After seeing six tanks and four armored vehicles parked neatly, some tribesmen felt completely cold. This group of people was obviously more arrogant than the ones in front, and these equipment were completely invincible in this area.

When they saw Zhou Xingguo and his men playing with mortars, some people completely lost their confidence. What did the copycats fear the most? Not tanks. They couldn't climb mountains. They were afraid of mortars. They could climb mountains easily, but they couldn't defend against them. There are so many gang members.

"Please come inside, our chief and commander are all inside."

Li Xiaojun was still very polite. Zhu Xuefeng had explained that if he wanted to tie their interests to his own in the future, it would be appropriate to be polite.

...

"This is what I want to express. We uphold the principle of equality, cooperation and mutual assistance, and are willing to communicate and communicate openly with all parties, and work together to benefit everyone in this area."

"At the same time, we also welcome you to participate in the construction of the town, welcome you down the mountain to trade goods, and accept you to work. We guarantee personal freedom and safety, and are absolutely fair and just. We can sign agreements and hold ceremonies in the temple according to your habits."

"But we bought this town and mining area with our lives and blood, and we will not give it up. I hope you know this."

"Dear Sir, we are willing to interact with you on an equal footing, and we are also willing to sign an agreement and hold a ceremony with you. We will go back to convey your good intentions and hope that we can form an alliance as soon as possible."

Representatives of the two parties quickly stated their stance. They were considered one of the four big companies, but they were still far behind the other two companies. At the same time, they had very little interest in the town and mining area. Seeing the current situation, they directly accepted the facts.

Ignoring the other party's title, Zhu Xuefeng wanted to cut through the mess quickly. Time was really tight. The internship was supposed to start almost a week now. Although he said hello, it was unjustifiable to delay for too long.

"I hope you can convey our wishes when you go back. We hope we can reach an agreement one day earlier. You will find that cooperation with us is the most suitable choice for you, and you will never regret it."

Then he turned around and asked the other two families. These two were larger. The population of the village was more than a thousand, and there should be dozens of guns. After seeing the scene in the yard, he was not too nervous. After all, he was watching from here. There were only a few dozen people there.

"You do not agree to return the interests of our mine. It is difficult for me to promise you on behalf of our leader. Since you defeated the man named Gao for us, you should return our share. We account for 30%."

"What about you, do you think the same way?"

"Yes, our Yibu tribe has the same requirements as the Dulong tribe. We also occupy 30%. Since you have driven them away, why can't you return the mine to us? You can still keep 40%, and we can also send people and troops. Let’s maintain the mine together.”

Zhu Xuefeng's nose was almost crooked with anger. If others take it, take it. You can't beat me anyway, right. If I take it, I will give it back to you. You are so beautiful.

"Are you sure this is what your clan leader meant?"

"Of course!"

These two sons, who are also the patriarch's sons, are really a little arrogant and a little reckless. Zhu Xuefeng's face turned dark when he saw them.

"In this case, please come back to the two of you. The covenant will be without you, so you can take care of yourself!"

"Humph!"

The representative of the Dulong tribe turned around and left. The Yibu tribe wanted to say hello, but when they saw the Dulong tribe leaving, they just left.

After seeing off the representatives from all directions, several people sat down.

"Chief, this guy named Gao used these more than 200 guns to clear this area. Now they probably see that there are not many of us, so they are probably not convinced. Since they have made it clear that they will not cooperate, staying here will be a disaster, so why not start with Be aggressive and eliminate hidden dangers.”

Zhu Xuefeng thought for a while and nodded.

"Since we can't reach an agreement, let's not talk. If we have to show off our claws, then we will attack them. Today we will start with the Dulong tribe. You can go and arrange it now."

The folk customs in this land of later generations were extremely poor, maybe it was just in their bones, but Zhu Xuefeng didn't mind changing the customs here.

"Yes".

Looking at the few people hurriedly going out to arrange the arrangements, Zhu Xuefeng fell into deep thought again, whether this was right or not.

There's nothing right or wrong. I only have over a hundred people here who are full of strength. I don't have the energy to fight a protracted war with two large villages with more than a thousand people. If you don't accept it, I'll beat you up.

In the end, only ten guards were left in the camp, followed by a dozen family members with guns to guard them. The original two tanks were left behind, which was enough.

The other four vehicles followed suit. Zhou Xingguo felt that even if he couldn't use them, showing off his power along the way could deter other small and medium-sized forces, so Zhu Xuefeng let him go.

"Xia Gong, why don't you go fight."

Looking at the messenger behind him, Zhu Xuefeng was a little surprised. He was not on the battlefield, so what order could he send?

"Report to the chief, the commander asked me to stay."

The team has already left with the guide, and with the armored personnel carrier, the team moves very fast, and Xia Gong will definitely not be able to catch up.

"Xia Gong, have you sent the messenger to the Yang family?"

"Reporting to the chief, he selected two of the miners and sent them out. He told them that as long as they brought back the information, they would be rewarded. There has been no reply yet."

The Yang family is a little further away, but it is much larger than these four families. If we can get support from the Yang family, many things will be solved.

The Dulong people were also surprised. The battle had already started before the people who went to negotiate came back. They only had less than fifty guns including firecrackers. The others were all cold weapons. A round of mortars and machine guns fired, killing them on the spot. With only a dozen people, the village collapsed.

"Let your clan leader speak out, or you will bear the consequences."

Li Xiaojun took a loudspeaker and shouted loudly, "If there is no reply within five minutes, we will fire!"

"Commander, this thing is really easy to use. It's better than the ones made from tinplate."

"Don't fire, I'll come out, don't fire."

"Let all those with blunderbuss and guns come out and surrender. If you insist on resisting, don't blame us for taking action."
