Wang Dalang muttered, "They said they were here to save us------"

The old man said angrily: "Fool! They're coming to rescue me?! How can you tie us up and seize our supplies?!! ”

Wang Dalang touched his body, and sure enough, his citizenship card and deposit slip were still in their hands------- they were still living in their own wooden shed.

Wang Erlang whispered: "------ better wait and talk, they beat them, I'll wait for my own life------"

"Fool, fool! How can it not be my business?! The money we are waiting for is in the money shop, and the herbs we are waiting for are being collected by the medicine dealers------ if they are defeated, the Tatar robbers can make up for it?!! ”

That's the truth------ the two brothers glanced at each other, but they didn't have the courage to let go.

At this time, the others also whispered, and the two brothers were frightened, and even said, "Don't worry! Wait until midnight to -------"

Zhang Hongfan arranged for a dozen delicate people to go to Tianjia Town to find out the truth and truth, and then lay down in the Wang brothers' house to rest------ in fact, like other houses, they are all wooden sheds or straw roof sheds, but this is far more comfortable than sleeping in the mountains.

He counted the number of people, and there were only more than 2,800 people, and nearly half of his subordinates were lost!

He was a little distressed, but helpless------

At this time, his shed was full of things that had been found in various homes.

He really didn't expect that there were so many good things in this dilapidated looking village away from home.

These people actually had more than twenty arquebuses, two large barrels of black/gunpowder!

There were a total of seventeen kerosene lamps and three barrels of kerosene, which in most of the capital could have been afforded by families above the average level!

Dozens of sausages, hundreds of canned fruits------- he had only eaten them once!

The others are some citizen certificates and strange pieces of paper with the number of money written on them, and the number is really not small------ the people here are so rich??

That night, they rested in the village where they left home, and before going to bed, they had the Wang brothers tied up, pushed them into the room, and replaced them with their own guards.

The stakes are so high that we must not let the news go.

The Wang brothers secretly complained, and they had to be scolded by everyone this night------

There was nothing to say all night, and at half past three in the morning the next day, Zhang Hongfan ordered to get up early, and after breakfast, he called the Wang brothers and asked the two of them to lead the way to Tianjia Town, and the rest of the villagers locked them in the house and let them go when they came back.

The dozen or so men he sent had already hidden in Tianjia Town, and one of them came back to report that there were only a few hundred pirates there, and some important places were heavily guarded, and ordinary people could not get close.

Zhang Hongfan was very satisfied with the honesty of the Wang brothers, so he untied them, and promised that there would be a heavy reward after the matter was completed!

At this time, the sky was just bright, they quickly went down the mountain and rushed towards Tianjia Town------ on the way, they saw a place where the copper wire was hanging and cut it with a steel knife, they had already known that the Great Song Dynasty and Liuqiu Island had a magical method, which could transmit news from the copper wire, and the speed was extremely fast!

Luckily, they also grabbed a convoy of horses that were passing by!

Five four-wheeled/large carriages were captured intact, and not a single person escaped.

Some people wanted to hack the driver who drove the car to death, but they were stopped by Zhang Hongfan, the driver was obviously a civilian, there was no need to kill indiscriminately, and it was still useful to keep them.

He ordered everyone to unload the goods of the five carriages, arranged for some people to sit on them, and still used the coachman to drive------ at this time, Zhang Hongfan found that the two brothers of the Wang family had taken advantage of the chaos to run away!

Hmph, run, run, two cowards!

The Wang brothers did take advantage of the confusion when they grabbed the carriage to get into the grass on the side of the road------- they relied on their familiarity with the terrain and escaped from their sight!

After the two of them had no worries about life and death, they began to feel that the old man's words were right, and it would indeed be no good for them if the Liuqiu Guards left this place!

They took a shortcut and ran to Tianjia Town-------

There is a logistics detachment stationed in Tianjia Town, with a total of 200 logistics soldiers, which is managed by a detachment leader and two squad leaders.

This logistics detachment is mainly responsible for supplying canned fruits and sausages to the front.

These two are the specialties of Liuqiu Island, once launched, the love of people who are deep in the sea, and soon it will be popularized among the people, the tin-plated tin cans are simple and safe to process, and whale meat and spices, potato starch are the specialties of Liuqiu Island------ so these two inconspicuous products can also make a lot of money for Liuqiu Island.

Because they have a long shelf life and are far more delicious than any whale jerky, they are naturally the main food of the Liuqiu Guard!

Tianjia Town is only a few miles away, and there are only 3,000 civilians and men and women, which is actually a big village level.

When this logistics detachment first arrived, it requisitioned the houses of large families in the town, and they paid a lot of money.

The big family didn't dare to ask for it at first, but they didn't dare not want it under the order of the detachment leader.

Later, the logistics detachment was converted into a military warehouse in the backyard of the big family's house with the help of the high walls of his house.

The presence of the logistics detachment made the town safer and more lively, and the residents here personally felt the good military discipline and military style of the Liuqiu Guard, which was far from the officers and soldiers they had met in the past, and the two sides got along happily.

The town later became a frequent place for merchants to come from.

Later, as the logistics detachment continued to recruit people to repair the road, it showed a far more prosperous scene than in the past, and more than ten commercial auxiliaries were opened in the town!

Out-of-towners often come here to do business, and people here often go out to do business.

The large family where the logistics detachment was stationed later moved to live in the newly built city of Qingdao, where living conditions were better.

The logistics detachment turned out to be the family keeper for them------ this is not to blame, he wanted to sell several large houses to the logistics detachment, but the detachment leader refused, he did not have the funds in his hand, not to mention, nor did he have this power.

All the money in his hands was drawn to him according to the plan!

The military discipline and military style of the logistics detachment have been appreciated by the locals, and they are also happy to live in the locality, and the military and the people are happy together.

The logistics work is characterized by being busy for a while and relaxed for a while, and if they can receive the five truckloads of goods delivered this morning, after completing the warehousing, they will be considered to have completed the day's work.

However, just after getting up in the morning, the communications corps in the logistics detachment reported to the detachment leader that there seemed to be something wrong with their cable telegram, as if the lines were all broken.

The detachment leader immediately had a big headache, and the wired telegraph was convenient to use, but the maintenance of the line was too troublesome.

In addition to the fact that the line is often blown off by strong winds and smashed by fallen trees, there will also be people stealing and cutting the line and coveting the copper wire inside!

The Great Song government was ruthless enough to enact the death penalty for those who sabotaged cable and telegraph lines------ while Liuqiu Island was only sentenced to three years of hard labor.

There has never been a situation where the line leading to the rear and the front are broken at the same time, so the detachment leader had to let two people carry the copper wire to check the front, and he took one person to check the rear.

He was just about to go out when the sentry on the observation post, which was fifteen meters high, shouted to him: "Captain! Five hundred meters away, there were several civilian four-wheeled/horse-drawn carriages coming! There are a lot of villagers behind! ”

The captain of the detachment knew that it was a carriage for delivery, and now there was not enough military vehicles, and they often hired civilian carriages to help at their headquarters in Shandong------ as for those village warriors, it may be the same as before, there are always some people who run from the Great Song Dynasty, claiming to be righteous soldiers, and they want to participate in the war to fight the Tatar bandits.

He waved to the sentry to show that he understood, and then asked the two squad leaders to organize the pick-up------ and he and one of the team members also carried a circle of copper wire out of the house.

In the morning, it's nice to be able to go out for a walk.
