Crimson Dawn

Chapter 168 no_name

When Pang Zi's cavalry marched into Gaojiazhai, no one even had to notify Chen Tianhua.The noise and shouts could be heard clearly from the farm outside the village.Chen Tianhua was instructing the cadres of the peasant association to check the accounts, check the inventory, and proofread the roster of the peasant association members.Hearing the noise from afar, he stood up, "Hurry up, everyone, don't waste time. By the way, Si De, you take people to kill pigs and refine oil now, don't delay this matter." gone."

The cadres of the peasant association all looked solemn, and Jing Side stood up, "I'm going now."

After giving orders, Chen Tianhua left the farm and went to Gaojiazhai Village.

When Chen Tianhua left, the members of the peasant association put down their work one after another, "Are you really going to hide this time?" Someone asked.

"In the year of Xin Chou, after the defeat of Commander Jing Ting and Bin Jing, the Beiyang Army has been raging here for a long time. This time when Pang Zi made trouble, the Beiyang Army may have to come. Don't hurry up now, just wait. Same as last time?"

"Yes. Once the military disaster is over, life will be difficult. Once you are caught, you will have to pay for ransom. Where do we have money?"

"Where are we going? If Beiyang comes here again this time, where do they come from?"

For a while, everyone was discussing, and suddenly someone said timidly: "Why don't we go home and arrange the house now?"

After hearing these words, the already lively room suddenly became silent.All the peasant association cadres in the room looked at each other, and the more information they knew, the more they could get in touch with the true nature of the matter.These cadres of the peasant association already knew the danger they were about to face. At such a moment, the most instinctive thought was to take their families and flee for their lives.There is nothing wrong with such a choice.

Everyone suddenly had a reflection, why should they stay here to deal with other people's affairs.I know my own affairs, and it is not easy to persuade my family members to flee for their lives. After joining the peasant association, everyone's life has improved a lot.Pang Zi's caravan brought a lot of property, cloth, and farm tools.In addition, the food in this farm is good, and there is a lot of food left.Once the soldiers came to burn, kill and loot, their property would be destroyed.Although the cadres of the peasant association may not be able to think of this in such an orderly manner, they know it.If you prepare a quarter of an hour earlier, you can save a loss.

Some people couldn't bear to stand up, their faces were red, their ears were red and their mouths were tongue-tied, trying to find some excuses for themselves to leave.I also found that no matter what I said, it was not appropriate.Since I was elected by everyone to be this cadre, now I think about my own family first, and I can't justify it in terms of emotion and reason.Even if it is in line with people's hearts to do so, it is not reasonable.

Some cadres who stood up sat down in embarrassment, but some cadres had already made up their minds.They sighed, walked outside with livid faces.At this moment, Jing Side, who had just gone out, just came back, and saw someone walking outside, he felt very strange, "Where are you going?"

The peasant association cadres who had made up their minds ignored them at all, and continued to walk out with their heads down.Jing Side understood the reason in a blink of an eye, he grabbed the two people and shouted loudly: "Don't leave." No matter how the two people struggled, Jing Side forcefully dragged them back to the house inside.As soon as he returned to the house, Jing Side yelled angrily: "Pang Lao Wu, Pang Gou, where are you two going?"

"Uncle, let's go home and have a look first. Come back immediately after watching." Pang Wu quickly explained.

"Go home and have a look? Can you come back after you go home? Who are you coaxing?" Jing Side shouted angrily.

"Uncle, please. I have to go home, I really have to go home. If I don't go back, it will be too late." Now that Pang Wu has made up his mind, he is no longer on work.

"You go back half a day late, can you die? You! You are so fucking worthless." Jing Side originally came back to ask two people to help butcher pigs. To be the first to escape.This was the critical moment when manpower was needed, and the cadres of the Peasant Association were too busy to do it themselves, and if someone ran away, the Peasant Association's big stall would simply not be cleaned up.But Jing Side knew that it was not an option to hold on to someone like this.The other cadres of the peasant association are watching, and reasoning is useless.

Thinking of this, Jing Side kicked each of the two peasant association cadres, "You useless things, get out, get out now!"

Pang Wu and Pang Cheng, nicknamed Gouzi, were kicked and did not dare to speak back. They lowered their heads and escaped from the yard of the peasant association as if they had received an amnesty.

"Who else wants to leave? Say it now. If you want to get out, get out now. Don't let you work hard. You don't have the heart to work hard. This is the money of the peasant association. If you make a mistake, it will be everyone's money." Jing Side roared.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, then got up one after another, lowered their heads and left the room. Only three of the dozen peasant association cadres remained.They are Pang Cheng, Jing Xiuzheng, and Jing Xiuchun brothers.These three people have always been considered chivalrous, and their family has a small population and few possessions.It was only after joining the peasant association that life got better.So I have always worked very seriously.In the study class held by Chen Tianhua, these three people are the most active. They are very good at mathematics, and now they are responsible for accounting work.

Although he knew that he shouldn't get angry with them, Jing Side really had an evil fire in his heart, and he asked viciously, "Can you guys do a good job?"

None of the three got angry, Jing Xiuchun smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry. We won't leave. We will stay here and do our best."

After hearing this, Jing Side said angrily, "Follow me to kill the pig. There are not enough people." After speaking, Jing Side got up and left the house.Jing Xiuchun didn't say anything else, got up and followed Jing Side.

The news spread quickly, and the members of the farmers' association had already heard the news. The members of the farmers' association who had been working in the farm left their posts one after another and went home.When they saw Jing Side bringing Jing Xiuchun over, they all lowered their heads in shame.But the pace of rushing home did not stop at all.When Jing Side arrived at the pigsty, there were only a few people left.

I saw an old man sharpening the butcher's knife leisurely. From time to time, he picked up the butcher's knife and brought it close to his eyes, and then touched the edge of the knife with his fingers to test the sharpness.

"Uncle, you were asked to lead the butcher just now, why did you sharpen your knife?" Jing Side asked respectfully.

The old man's name is Jing Tingwen, and his seniority is a generation higher than Jing Side's.Hearing the nephew's question, the old man smiled and said, "Sharpening a knife is not a mistake for a woodcutter. This person has run away. If the knife is not sharpened, we are too slow to kill pigs."

After hearing such calm words, Jing Side couldn't help laughing out loud, "Haha! Uncle, you are right, let's tie the pigs first, and you continue to sharpen the knife." After finishing speaking, Jing Side insisted on sticking to his post. Several members of the peasant association shouted: "Let's start tying the pigs."

Chen Tianhua didn't know that these things happened in the peasant association just after he left.He hurried out of the gate of the breeding farm, and he saw that Gaojiazhai had become a sea of ​​joy within a short distance.The horse team has entered the village, and everyone on the horse is elated.These days, Chen Tianhua's patience has not improved at 01:30, he didn't rush to go there, but stood still and carefully observed the members of the cavalry.I saw that they were basically carrying two long guns, and at least one of them was a new rifle.It should be the spoils captured after defeating the Canal Defense Battalion.

Judging from the number of these guns, the seizure this time was extremely rich.All of Pang Zi's subordinates were full of excitement. It was obvious that they had already cheered, and some of them even had tired faces.But as long as there is a place to cheer, other people will continue to cheer, even if there is no enthusiasm in the cheers.

Chen Tianhua couldn't help sighing, although he didn't know how Chen Ke was doing now.But when following Chen Ke, those comrades were quite serious, and only after completing a job seriously, would everyone look really happy.Compared with this hysterical pursuit of excitement, Chen Tianhua really couldn't regard these Pang Zi's subordinates as his comrades.

After the observation, Chen Tianhua quickly stepped into the village.In the meantime, a large number of people were crowded in front of the restaurant in the village, and people inside and outside were shouting: "Bring out the wine!" "Wine! Wine! I want to drink!"

Without stopping to watch, Chen Tianhua continued to go to Pang Zi's residence.Many people in the Escort had met Chen Tianhua, and knew that this Mr. Chen was the one who was responsible for providing them with meat and eggs, and was a close friend of Brother Pang Zi.No one stopped Chen Tianhua, so Chen Tianhua went straight into the yard.In the yard are some leaders of the escort agency, they are much quieter than the people outside.Many people have excited faces, but there are also a few people who look quite dignified.

Chen Tianhua didn't care so much, and went straight into the main room.Unexpectedly, there was no celebration in the room as imagined by a large banquet inside, or a group of people bragging about too many people.I saw Pang Zi and Pang Tianshuo whispering together.Seeing Chen Tianhua come in, Pang Zi continued to say a few words to Pang Tianshuo, and Pang Tianshuo got up and left in a hurry.He even closed the door when he went out.It's still very cautious.

"Mr. Chen Zi didn't have the slightest smile on his face. He didn't exchange pleasantries, he just said it directly.

After sitting down, Chen Tianhua said straight to the point: "Brother Pang, after doing such a big thing, what are you going to do next?"

Pang Zi pursed her lips and glanced meaninglessly to the left, then turned her head, "Mr. Chen, at most I can't beat me and run away, but it's on your side, what are you going to do about the peasant association?"

"I'm also going to organize everyone to run. I'm here this time to ask Brother Pang to promise me a few things. I don't know if Brother Pang can listen."

"I also have something I want to talk to Mr. Chen. Let me talk about it first." Pang Zi said with a serious face, "The peasant association has made a lot of money. We need money for this run. Mr. Chen, I will split the money half and half. .”

Hearing this, Chen Tianhua didn't even think about it, and said decisively: "No, this money cannot be divided. The Beiyang Army will definitely arrest people in the future, and this money will be used to redeem people."

Pang Zi never expected that Chen Tianhua would use such a reason to reject him, and his eyebrows immediately stood up.

Chen Tianhua raised a hand to stop Pang Zi from speaking. "Brother Pang, I know you're not happy. I just came here to tell you one thing. If you want to show up in Nangong County, you can't lose the hearts of the people here."

"Haha, people's hearts." Pang Zi sneered, "Mr. Chen, you scholars like to talk about this. People's hearts? When Uncle Jing raised the flag to rebel, I knew what people's hearts are like. When you have the ability, you You have people's hearts. You have nothing, and you still have people's hearts." After speaking, Pang Zi couldn't help but sneer again.

Chen Tianhua stared at Pang Zi, "Brother Pang, let me ask you, why did Uncle Jing lose back then, and you can still hang out in Nangong County now? Why didn't the people tie you up to meet the officials? There is a wanted man. Why do so many people still recognize Uncle Jing's face?"

"That's, that's..." Pang Zi was choked up by the question, he opened his mouth several times, and finally said forcefully, "That's Uncle Jing's popularity!"

"That's because of Uncle Jing's work, beating churches, anti-foreign donations, and raising flags to rebel are all for the people. Even if Uncle Jing was defeated, the common people did not blame Uncle Jing." Chen Tianhua said very seriously, "Brother Pang, Whether you should fight the canal defense battalion or not, I won’t say anything. You must have your own reasons. But since you are fighting now, you can’t let the people suffer because of you. If you let the people suffer because of yourself , People think of you Pang Zi, don't they feel any resentment in their hearts? Do you think you can go back to Nangong County in the future?"

After hearing this, Pang Zi's face turned pale instead of livid.Chen Tianhua's explanation of Jing Tingbin's uprising solved a mystery that had not been solved in Pang Zi's heart for a long time.Why did Uncle Jing do so many great things but no one dared to say no to Uncle Jing.Why did Uncle Jing offend so many people in his life, but no common people complained about Uncle Jing.Even if the flag-raising rebellion failed, the people still praised Uncle Jing so much.Even when Uncle Jing was captured and executed by Ling Chi.The local officials even recognized Uncle Jing's face.

Because Uncle Jing has never done anything for his own benefit in his life. Uncle Jing is a martial artist with such a big family in Xingtai. If he just wants to make his life better, he doesn't need to be so prominent.All his life, Uncle Jing couldn't get used to those people who behaved mischievously. He just wanted to let everyone live a good life. That's why Uncle Jing went around to uphold justice, fight against injustice, and even raise flags to rebel.

But Pang Zi himself is not like this. Although he is also studying Uncle Jing, Pang Zi knows very well that everything he does is for himself.

Chen Tianhua didn't care how much insight Pang Zi had gained at this time, he said directly: "Brother Pang, I want you to do three things. First, you can't bring the people to fight with you. Second, you have to help the people escape .Thirdly, you have to leave me someone to keep the money from the peasant association.” After saying this, Chen Tianhua thought for a while before continuing: “You also have to give me 100 guns to hide.”
