"Uncle Zhang, let's be honest, before I joined the Eighth Route Army, I started from the green forest......"

Speaking of this, Li Jing's face was a little embarrassed, but as soon as he gritted his teeth, he said directly: "To put it bluntly, he is actually a bandit." ”

In this regard, Zhang Mingfa didn't seem to be surprised at all, and even his eyes didn't change in the slightest...... On the way, he had already asked his son about Li Jing's situation, and he originally wanted to set up a relationship with Lala, so as not to be blackmailed. And Li Jing's background in the assault regiment is not a secret, as the militia captain Zhang Jinlong, when he participated in a one-month training at the headquarters of the assault regiment in the past, he did not hear much about such things. Now, naturally, I won't hide it from my father.

The so-called heroes do not ask where they come from, the past has passed, and the key is to look at the present and the future. ”

Zhang Ming's words were almost the same as what Zhang Qingshan said, which made Li Jing feel much better, just like being encouraged and getting everyone's understanding, his heart was warm, and his courage was greater.

"Thank you for your old comfort. However, I have led people to carry out activities in this area before, and at that time, I did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and there was no less harm to the people. And Majiapo Village has also been plagued by me once, so you see, can I ask you to help mediate and resolve the grievances of the villagers in Majiapo Village, so that we can settle down in Majiapo Village and fight devils for the villagers. ”

After speaking, he quickly explained: "Because the geographical location of Majiapo Village is in the middle of all the villages in this area, it is very important...... Only by being stationed in Majiapo Village can we be able to rush to the rescue in the fastest time no matter which village has an accident. So ......"

"This is no problem, believe me, this old face still has a little effect......" Zhang Mingfa nodded, but remembered something again, and asked: "Battalion Commander Li, I shouldn't ask a lot of questions, at that time, did you kill people in Majiapo Village?"

"No! However, I injured some people and robbed a lot of things...... Li Jing himself was a little embarrassed to continue...... At that time, it was beautiful, but now, after receiving the ideological education for more than half a year, Li Jing also realized his mistake, and the more he thought about it, the more ashamed he felt, so he couldn't talk anymore.

"It's okay! As long as there are no dead people, then there is no contradiction that cannot be resolved, and I think this is okay. ”

"Our head of the regiment also knows that I can't live with the villagers in Majiapo Village, so under my application, I was specially approved to give me a few hundred yuan this time, just to let me use this money to apologize to the villagers who have been harmed by me before, hoping to get forgiveness from the villagers. Although the money is not enough to make up for my original mistakes, it is also the best I want to express my guilt to the villagers at present...... Uncle Wang, when the time comes, I have to trouble you to mediate it. ”

"Don't worry about this, I will do my best. If this kid Ma Hongji dares to turn the sky upside down, he can't be killed with my crutch. Zhang Ming carried forward the crutches in Yang's hand, probably remembering the past, and these words also increased: "This kid's father and I are friends of life and death, and we are brothers...... As soon as he was full moon, his mother died, and this kid was directly at my house at that time, grabbing milk from the golden dragon...... Later, his house was hit by fire, and without saying a word, I directly opened the granary and money at home, and in front of him, I directly distributed half of it to his family...... Now this guy has stiff wings and dares to be disobedient, isn't this looking for a pump?"

"Yes, yes, yes! You're right. ”

"Also, let me tell you, his daughter-in-law is also the one I personally went to talk to the matchmaker......"

When the old man recalled the past, he was naturally a little nagging. And Li Jing had the heart to please him, so he naturally listened to it, anyway, it was quite interesting to listen to the story.

That is, in the story of the old man, Li Jing found that Zhang Mingfa and Ma Hongji, the relationship between the two families is really good: Ma Hongji grew up eating Zhang Mingfa's wife's milk. Ma Hongji was also a restless master when he was young, but no matter what Ma Hongji committed, Zhang Mingfa was not right about people and supported Ma Hongji to the end. Later, Ma Hongji's father died of illness, and Ma Hongji's uncle competed with Ma Hongji for the position of village head, but Zhang Mingfa personally came forward to ask for money and people to support Ma Hongji...... To put it bluntly, in the minds of the two families, everyone is just not related by blood, but they are closer than relatives. Zhang Mingfa is closer to Ma Hongji than to his own son, and Ma Hongji also treats Zhang Mingfa like his father.

Ma Hongji usually goes to Ma Mingfa's house every once in a while to visit, or takes Zhang Mingfa to live at home for a few days, and he is absolutely attentive. If there is something, as long as Zhang Mingfa speaks, Ma Hongji will also obey his words, and he will kill people and set fires without the slightest hesitation.

That's why Zhang Mingfa is so confident.

Don't look at Zhang Ming's family as the head of a small village, but he has two sons and a daughter.

Zhang Ming's family could only be regarded as a big landlord before, and he had no power. However, he has a good daughter, who is not only beautiful, but also talented and intelligent, and is willing to study hard, becoming the first female college student in the county.

Later, she married a regiment commander of the national army, and she was still the wife of the main house. And this son-in-law can become the head of the regiment at a young age, and he has military power, and his family background is naturally not simple. However, his family really has no opinion on this daughter-in-law, so much so that they ignore this article. It can be seen how smart his daughter is.

Relying on the power brought by his daughter, the status of the Zhang family suddenly improved.

And his eldest son was also taken away by his son-in-law to cultivate, and only his youngest son Zhang Jinlong stayed by his side to support his death.

Therefore, with such a background, Zhang Mingfa dared to euphemistically say that there is still a bit of face in this area.

No matter how much water there is in it, Li Jing can see that this Zhang Mingfa can definitely kill Ma Hongji, so he is more enthusiastic to listen to the story to please him, and he hopes that this 'system' can work wonders.

Later, Ergazi came to bring them water, and when he heard the old man's past, he naturally sat down...... In the end, many soldiers came to listen to the old man's story of his youth......

After half an hour, everyone set off and continued to set off towards Majiapo Village.

Majiapo Village is strategically located and is a wealthy village in its own right, with a population of 578.

Majiapo Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, except for the mountain named Majiapo on its back, there are flat fields everywhere, and the environment is beautiful and unique—it can not only raise soldiers, but also be the best place to train soldiers.

Because of the wealth, the large population, the large number of young people, and the strong support of the assault regiment, the militia weapons and equipment in this village are second to none in the surrounding area. And it is precisely because of these reasons that when the commando propaganda team mobilized everyone to move, the villagers of this village not only did not transfer, but also vigorously took in some relatives and friends, so that the village now has nearly 700 people...... It can be seen that the confidence is sufficient.

At the beginning, Li Jing coveted this village, otherwise he wouldn't always think about it, he fought three times, united nearly a thousand people, and used a strategy to only enter the village, but he couldn't completely capture the village, and he was almost driven out in the end.

Zhang Qingshan has long considered the importance of this village, so he has not only vigorously supported the village's weapons and equipment, but also personally sent people to train the militia in the village many times...... Otherwise, Zhang Qingshan would not have ordered Li Jing to station in this village and use this village as the center to fight against the slaughter of the village chiefs in this area by the little devils.

Li Jing thought about what he would encounter when he and the others arrived in Majiapo Village: men's hostility, women's crying and scolding, and even scratching; it was also possible that they were forced to be forced to temporarily let go very reluctantly, and then they had a lukewarm attitude......

In either case, Li Jing was ready to deal with it, just as Zhang Qingshan said: sincerely apologize and sincerely apologize.

However, when Li Jing and the others came to the top of the mountain to take a look, they were all stunned. I didn't expect that there would be such a situation in front of me: not a single house in the whole village was lit up, and there was a dead silence in the dark rumbling, as if facing an empty village.

Although it was already half past ten in the evening, it was impossible for the large village of nearly 200 households to be left without any lights. At least, Li Jing knew that outside the mansion of Ma Hongji's family, the largest family in the village, the two flaming red lanterns would be lit every night all year round, which could not only illuminate, but also show his family's status and wealth in the village - many poor people couldn't even afford to use the lit oil lamps, and his family could do so every night, this is not a display of wealth and status, what else could it be?

In other words, the whole village did not light the lamp, with the permission of Ma Hongji, or to put it bluntly, it was ordered by Ma Hongji. The meaning is obvious: we have an enmity, although because you are now a devil killer, you still have a little conscience, and you can be regarded as a man, Lao Tzu will not set a trap for you and beat you with a black gun. However, Lao Tzu definitely does not welcome you.

In this era, the countryside is basically the largest clan concept, basically, the patriarch is either directly the village chief and the chief, or the patriarch retreats behind the scenes and lets his son become the village chief, which is a way to prepare in advance for his son to take over the position of patriarch after a hundred years.

And the big and small affairs in the village, the small road is bickering, and the patriarch can decide what everyone mainly plants this year, and he is absolutely powerful in the village, and he is the emperor of the land.

And Ma Hongji is now the patriarch and village chief of Majiapo Village. He spoke, who in the village would dare to disobey? Otherwise, there would not be such a strange thing in front of his eyes.

"This bastard, it's too much, it's too much!"

Before Li Jing could say anything, Zhang Mingfa, who had just been carried to the top of the mountain by his son, saw this situation, and his face changed greatly, because in his opinion, he had promised Li Jing to pat his chest before, but now he is facing such an embarrassing situation, this is slapping himself in the face...... Besides, people have just saved me and my village, so it's okay for you to be perfunctory on my face, how can you refuse so directly?

So, the old man was furious.

"Battalion Commander Li, don't go down first, wait for me to go down first to teach this bastard a lesson, you must let him obediently welcome you into the village, otherwise, it will be too unseemly. As he spoke, the old man left angrily, shouting in his mouth: "I don't give Lao Tzu face, and I can't see the current situation clearly, I don't have the temperament and ability to be a team leader, I will smoke ......you for your father."

Li Jing and the others on the side were stunned, and they didn't know what to say for a while: I haven't expressed my opinion yet, why are you so angry?

"Dad, slow down, I'll carry you down!"

"! I'm so angry......"

......
