Chapter 3 Shannan and Shanbei (Part 3)

Chapter 3 Shannan Shanbei (three times)

Since joining the Lianzhuang Club, Zhang Songling has never mentioned the matter of Huluyu, let alone revealed to anyone that he wanted to avenge his classmates. In order not to attract the attention of others, he didn't even ask anyone how many corpses were carried into Huluyu that day. He wants revenge, he wants to learn from Yu Rang and Jing Ke, he thought that he had hidden his hatred deep enough, but he didn't expect to be seen by the old military master at a glance. (Note 1)

Fortunately, the old military division did not mean to stop him, but clearly expressed his appreciation and support for his plan, "The hard work is not worth it, the salary is worth it, and the three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu!" If you can not forget the revenge of your classmates being killed, and you can calm down this breath, you are a character. You can rest assured about the things in front of you, even if Qin Degang knows that you are in Weijiazhuang, as long as the old man does not nod my head, he will not have the ability to take you away! ”

This is not that the old man is bragging, according to Zhang Songling's observation in the past few days, the hunchbacked old military division is almost the second most powerful person in the Lianzhuang Association. Resourceful and convincing. Even the big boss Wei Zhankui has to weigh the words of this old man a few points, and he doesn't dare to refute them easily.

"But in the future, it's up to you!" Without waiting for Zhang Songling to express his gratitude, the hunchbacked veteran military master continued: "The person behind Qin Degang is his distant cousin Qin Dechun. That was a big man in the 29th Army, second only to Song Zheyuan in status. If you don't have any strength yourself, just with the empty mouth and white teeth of a poor student, can Song Zheyuan make the decision for you? ”

The answer is very simple, even if he doesn't understand the world, Zhang Songling can calculate it clearly. But what to do to quickly improve his strength, but the old military division refused to give more advice. Just tell him that the gentleman can avenge the revenge of the ninth generation. As long as he is patient, he can always find an opportunity. (Note 2)

Zhang Songling couldn't see where the opportunity was. At least, judging from the current situation of the Iron and Blood Alliance, he could not see any hope of revenge. This self-defense organization, which was established spontaneously by the people, nominally has more than 300 strong men, but most of them have not undergone any formal training. All the long and short hot weapons in his hands add up, even counting the big guns built in the Gengzi years, it is only more than 60 guns. Among them, more than a dozen are earthen cannons used for hunting, with a range of less than 50 meters, and it takes at least half a minute to reload each black powder.

At this moment, there is a lot of money on the account of the Lianzhuang Association, and in the name of protecting the family and defending the country, Wei Zhankui has forcibly apportioned it to the villagers several times. Whoever dared not to "donate" anti-Japanese salaries to the Lianzhuang Association on time, Zhao Erzi and others immediately took guns to block the door, pick up the house, and dismantle the stove, and looted all the thick and thin objects in the other party's house. When it comes, the whole family will be driven out of the village, and they will never be allowed to return.

"We are an anti-Japanese team, do you know how to resist Japan?" On more than one occasion, Zhang Songling was in the house and heard Wei Zhankui roaring loudly outside at the villagers who had come to ask for a forbearance date for a few days. "If you don't pay, the brothers will have to fight the Japanese hungry. Can you swing a hoe when you are hungry when you grow crops? Brothers who are to blame for the defeat of the brothers because they are hungry? I see that you look like a dog, don't you have a mind to leave money and food to the Japanese?! Sabotage anti-Japanese resistance is a great crime of killing heads! Folks, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand! ”

How have the poor fellows ever seen such a battle? Although I can't figure it out, how can I pay a few days late for my "donation" to become a sabotage against Japan? can see that Wei Zhankui is carrying the two Varan Walan barge guns on his waist, and his legs and stomachs are three points softer. If you think about it carefully, if the Japanese really called, maybe there would really be nothing left of what little stuff they had at home. It's better to donate some to the Iron Blood, at least to get past the current hurdle first.

Therefore, those who have silver dollar copper plates donate silver dollar copper plates, and those who do not have silver dollar copper plates donate food and livestock, anyway, if they don't donate themselves, Wei Zhankui will also send Zhao Erzi to search for them with guns. It's better to take the initiative, so as not to be said to toast and not eat and be punished!

For the squires and big families in the four Zhuangzi, Wei Zhankui changed his way. The money, the squires and the big families must be paid, otherwise Wei will not be able to subdue others. But the specific amount can be sat down and discussed. Those who have enough money can donate more, and those who do not have enough money can donate less. It's really thick-skinned, and you're not afraid of being scolded as a miser, and you can take food on top. If you can't trust Wei's character, and you are afraid that Wei will enrich your own pockets in the name of resisting Japan, you can also send cronies to supervise. Anyway, the account book is in the hands of Wei Ding, the only old talent in a radius of dozens of miles, the veteran military master of the Iron and Blood Society, and every expenditure is listed in detail, and everyone can check it at any time.

The squires and big families have a lot of property, and they are even more afraid that the Japanese will come and end up with both people and money. Besides, Wei Zhankui looks rough and generous, but his heart may not be as broad as he appears. Once you offend him and come to him in the middle of the night pretending to be a bandit, I'm afraid everyone can only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

Therefore, the squires and big families in the four villages of Wei, Xiao, Lu, and Yang did not dare to really refute Wei Zhankui's face. The donated money and grain can only be more than the reserve price offered by Wei Zhankui, and he does not dare to be less than the reserve price offered by Wei Zhankui. Anyway, even if Wei Zhankui is not trustworthy, there is still the old military master Wei Ding watching there. He is a dignified showman, not to mention the sage books he has read, and his conduct is obvious to all in ten miles and eight towns, and it is unlikely that he will deceive everyone under the guise of resisting Japan.

With money and food, if you want to develop and grow, the next two things are naturally to recruit troops and buy weapons. The first thing is to say, since the Lianzhuang Association is called the Lianzhuang Association, the village is young and strong, and there is an obligation to produce Ding. But the second thing is more difficult, the 29th Army was formerly known as Feng Yuxiang's Second Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and after accepting the reorganization of the central government, his grandmother has always been in pain, and his uncle is not in love. They don't even have their own arsenal, and of course they won't sell their hard-won weapons to local militias. As for the smugglers, because of the war that has been going on in North China for the past two years, the arms are sold at an extremely high price. A half-new Hanyang-made piece will sell for ten silver dollars. As for the box gun, which could press 20 rounds, it would have to be sold for more than 150 yuan, and it would have to pay half of the deposit several months in advance to hope that it could be obtained. Compared to ridiculously expensive guns, bullets are cheaper. Those in Shanxi that were "scattered" from the arsenal to the people, and those in Gongxian that were "destroyed" because they were not up to standard, can be supplied at any time. But a bullet costs five cents, which is comparable to the price of a pound of white flour.

No matter how abundant the money and food are, Wei Zhankui will not dare to be too defeated. The spear was only bought once, and he stopped contacting the black-hearted merchant. So far, only seven box guns have been bought. He had two of his own, one for each of the three vice presidents and the veteran military master Wei Ding. There is also one that hangs on the wall of the council chamber as a morale booster. It was said that whoever killed the Japanese the bravest in the future would be rewarded to whomever he wanted.

As a teenager with a deep hatred of blood, Zhang Songling is extremely eager to have a gun of his own. But the one that hung on the wall of the Iron and Blood Lianzhuang Conference Hall, he didn't dare to count on it at all. Not only did he not expect the box cannon, but even he was very optimistic about the future of the Iron and Blood Society. And this dark impression is slowly deepening over time. In other words, the longer he spent in the Iron Will, the more knowledge he learned about the organization. And the more he learned about the Iron Blood, the more he felt that the future of this team was bleak.

"Just buying, it's definitely not going to work. This little money in the meeting is not easy to come by, we have to save some money! Regarding the predicament that the Iron and Blood Society is facing at the moment, the old military master Wei Ding is also very anxious. ran around for a while, but didn't get too good results, so he whimsically put his hopeful eyes on Zhang Songling's head, "Little fat man, you have read a lot of books and have a wide range of knowledge." Can you help me think about it too? How can we arm the brethren without spending money, or with less money? This is a great achievement, as long as you can set it up, I will go to Wei Zhankui and let him promote you to squadron leader! ”

"You old man didn't have any tricks, what else can I come up with?!" For the old military division in front of him, who is full of evil spirit inside and out, Zhang Songling can't afford to provoke and can't hide. "Unless I write a letter to my family and ask my brother to help me take a look at Shandong. But in that case, you'll have to promise my brother to take me home!" ”

"No, no, our Iron and Blood Society is not a bandit who kidnaps tickets, how can we exchange you for arms?!" After listening to Zhang Songling's words, the hunchbacked veteran military master Wei Ding immediately shook his head into a rattle. "If you think about it, is there any other way? Also, your father is the owner of the warehouse, so don't let the second person know. Otherwise, one day I won't be able to take care of the old man, and I won't be able to ask for a ransom from your family with your fingers! ”

"They said they weren't bandits!" Zhang Songling pouted depressedly.

"Think again, think again. You're not just any human being. Since the day the old man saw you for the first time, he expected that you would become a great weapon in the future. And throughout the ages, those who can become great will be accompanied by good luck that others can't look forward to! The old military master Wei Ding didn't seem to be joking at all, and continued to ramble on the side of Zhang Songling's ear.

"If you don't have anything to do, just sit here and rest for a while! I still have a few more accounts to sort out today! Zhang Songling didn't bother to pay attention to this old nerve, and turned his gaze to the ledger on the table again. Because the abacus was well played and the words were written clearly, the old guy had already pushed most of the accounting matters to him. As a result, he is now almost the full-time bookkeeper of the Iron and Blood Society, and every night when he sleeps, countless silver dollars and copper plates are rolling in the darkness in front of him.

"Isn't it just three pigs, the expenditure of more than ten stone meters, you know what to do so well. Anyway, I can't run into other people's stomachs! "The old military division is so lonely today, and he has nothing to say.

"If you don't keep the accounts clearly, I'm afraid that you will use me as Li Yan in the future!" Zhang Songling raised his head and glanced at the old guy, and counted down very dissatisfied. As time passed, he became more and more convinced that the old guy in front of him was an old madman who had a bad head after watching a play. always wanted to live a Zhuge Kongming addiction, but he really couldn't find Liu Bei, so whoever he saw wanted to put a pair of big ears on the other party.

"No, no!" The old military master Wei Ding assured repeatedly, and at the same time, a pair of old eyes began to burn and shine, "How could I take you as Li Yan." If I were Zhuge Liang, you would be Liu Chan. Whether you can help up or not, I will do my best to assist you! ”

Zhang Songling couldn't cry or laugh, pushed open the account book, and pointed out the window, "Your Liu Adou is wrestling with someone outside, okay?!" If you have time to make fun of me, you might as well give him advice. Let him not keep hiding the bullets and rusting, and give the brothers two shots from time to time, lest the day when he really fights the Japanese, the fire will not know how to hug! ”

"Him?" The old military master beat his old waist by himself, glanced at Wei Zhankui, who was wrestling with Zhao Erzi and others in the empty field outside the door, and shook his head very disdainfully, "He is a Liao Hua at most, and he can't even be a general!" I'm not going to waste that energy on him! ”

Zhang Songling was stunned, he didn't expect that in the eyes of the old thing, Wei Zhankui was actually looked down upon. He frowned and retorted in a very small voice, "Then you still push him out as the president." Don't tell me, the matter of the Iron and Blood Society was made up by him alone. You can hide it from me for a day or two, not for a month or a month! ”

He wanted to say, 'You can't hide it from me for the rest of your life', but he suddenly realized that it would create the illusion that he was ready to take root in the Iron and Blood Society. When the words came to his lips, he hastily changed his words. The old military master Wei Ding smiled wickedly, neither admitting nor denying it, "It's less than a month, and it's only been about twenty days since you were tied up by Zhao Erzi and them." Besides, if I treat you as an outsider, I won't let you see so many things! You think you're smart, at the beginning of the fight, he Wei Zhankui was like a mirror in his heart about this matter! But he and my old man have their own plans, and we know each other! ”

"I don't have the time to mix up your!" Slowly figuring out the old guy's temper, when Zhang Songling talked to him, he was no longer as cautious as when he first joined the club. In order for this person not to force himself to find a way to get a gun, he stretched his waist and took the initiative to divert the topic to the other party's most interesting aspect, "I remember that you told me last time that the current situation is like Wei, Shu, and Wu during the Three Kingdoms. But I remember that in the Three Kingdoms era, it was the Sima family who won the world in the end. Cao, Sun, and Liu have been working for decades, but in the end they didn't get anything! This Wei, Shu, and Wu three kingdoms, you are all right. But what about Sima's, do you always think, who will be Sima's! ”

As soon as the general trend of the world was mentioned, the old military master Wei Ding came to the spirit. His back was no longer lifted, his voice was no longer hoarse, he straightened his waist and shook his head mysteriously with a mysterious face, "Is this this?" Hehe, hehe. Heavenly secrets must not be revealed. Unless you kid promise to stay in the Iron Will forever! ”

Zhang Songling didn't negotiate the conditions with the old guy, and immediately turned his head back to the ledger in a pretend. Anyway, he knew that in the entire Iron and Blood Society, he was the only one who could listen to the old guy "analyze" the general trend of the world, and he didn't have to worry that the other party could hold back.

Sure enough, after only half a pillar of incense kung fu, the old military master Wei Ding was holding back his sweat. first trotted to close the door of the house, and then looked carefully outside, making sure that no one around was eavesdropping on his revelation, so he put his mouth with gold teeth to Zhang Songling's ear, and said nervously: "I'll only tell you one person, you must not tell the third person." ”

"Okay!" Zhang Songling casually agreed, as if he was coaxing the old man to be happy.

"The Communist Party!" The old military advisor easily penetrated Zhang Songling's heart with only three words. The ledger in his hand fell to the ground with a "pop".

Note 1: "Yu Rang, a famous assassin during the Warring States period. In order to avenge his confidant, he went incognito, did not hesitate to burn his throat with coals, and his whole body was covered with black paint.

Note 2: From "Spring and Autumn. The Legend of the Ram", in the spring of the fourth year of Zhuang Gong, Qi Xianggong was destroyed. The ninth ancestor of Xianggong was scolded by the Marquis of Ji in the past, and he was killed in Zhou, so Xianggong destroyed the Ji.
