In the afternoon, Tang Dalong saw that the people had gradually dispersed.

He pulled Zhang Tianhe aside and said, "Good brother, I'll ask you something." ”

"Big brother, what's the matter? God is mysterious, you say. Zhang Tianhe saw that his expression was not the same as usual, and he didn't know what he was going to do.

"It's the female bodyguard who came with Tian Xiaoting today, what's her name?"

"You said her, her name is Li Erniang, and the people in the rivers and lakes call her 'Dominatrix', what's wrong?" Zhang Tianhe said.

"'Dominatrix'? It's a good name, I like it. Tang Dalong said.

"Big brother, what do you mean by this?"

"Good brother, it's like this, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm still a single person, you look at my height, her size, my appearance, her appearance, you say, am she and I a natural pair?" Tang Dalong said a little embarrassed.

"What? Big brother, I see that you are quite honest, but you are a little similar to Fan Yong, it turns out that you are all honest people and not honest," Zhang Tianhe heard this, pointed at him and smiled, "In this way, you have taken a fancy to others." ”

"Good brother, even if it means that."

"Even if? What do you mean by even though? You tell me clearly, do you fall in love with others, or don't you fall in love with others? Zhang Tianhe asked.

"Yes, I like it." Tang Dalong said weakly.

"Isn't that the end of it?" Zhang Tianhe stroked his palms and laughed.

"It's just that I don't know if people have a family, and what kind of attitude they have towards me, I don't know if they can take a fancy to me."

"And what do you want me to do for you?" Zhang Tianhe asked.

"I mean, you and her master Tian Xiaoting are not brother and sister, you just look for her and help me talk about this matter, what do you think?" Tang Dalong said.

"Okay, you didn't say it early today, the master and servant have already left, let's talk about it when we have a chance later," Zhang Tianhe said, "I estimate that eight or nine will not leave ten, don't worry, this matter will be on me." ”

"That's a good dare, I'll kowtow to your brother three times first, and after the matter is done, I will invite you to drink." Tang Dalong said, kowtowing when he lay on the ground.

"Oh, I really didn't see it, you're still a guy who is heavy on color and light on friends!" Zhang Tianhe laughed.

In the evening, Chen Jia took the medicine prescribed to him by Xing Lizheng, and the fever on his head gradually subsided, and he woke up.

"Senior brother, are you awake?" Huo Tingying saw that Chen Jia had woken up and said excitedly.

Chen Jia opened his eyes and looked at him and Zhen Sifei, and nodded. turned his face and saw Zhang Tianhe and the other brothers. He understood that Zhang Tianhe must have saved him.

He supported his body, got off the bed, and kowtowed Zhang Tianhe three times.

"Brother, you don't have to thank me, this time it was mainly Brother Tang and Brother Jiu who contributed to save you, Brother Tang negotiated with that Wang Xiong many times for your business, and the five thousand taels of silver were handed over, and people just didn't let people go, and in desperation, the ninth brother risked killing your head and carried you out of prison. The two of them, for your sake, have abandoned all their positions and everything in the cottage," Zhang Tianhe said, "If it weren't for the two of them to save each other, even if I had the ability to reach the sky, I wouldn't have been able to save you." ”

When Chen Jia heard this, he was busy kowtowing to Tang Dalong and Li Sizhe, and said: "The grace of saving lives, the grace of reconstruction, I thank you two, I can't help everyone, I will cause trouble to everyone." However, this money is too much to spent, and how can I afford to pay back five thousand taels of silver? ”

The two hurriedly helped him up and said, "It's all my own brothers, there's no need for this, as long as you're safe and sound, your injuries haven't healed yet, take care of your injuries." What money is not money, those are things outside the body, and they are lost and earned, so there is no need to worry about it. ”

"Just because of this, I also affected Tianhe Brother's house to be robbed, and the local people were also implicated, how can I feel at ease?"

"Brother, this may be a fate, I can't blame you, you don't have to think about anything, just recuperate with peace of mind, you are better alive than anything else." Zhang Tianhe said.

Huo Tingying reported to Chen Jia about the establishment of a security team jointly discussed by all the heroes today, and he agreed with both hands, expressing his willingness to join the security team, and said that if Zhang Tianhe agreed, he was willing to pull all the original members of their Zhongwu Hall over to serve.

Zhang Tianhe knew that these people, who usually practiced martial arts, had much better physical fitness than ordinary people, and in general, they were not bad, so he immediately agreed.

Starting the next day, Wang Laohao led the local elder patriarch, Qin Erye, and Wu Dalang to Gaoxu Town and the surrounding ten villages and eight villages to raise silver taels. Everything is voluntary, those who are willing to pay money will pay the point, there is no limit, those who are not willing to pay the money, never reluctantly, all the silver that came up is registered in the book, and then put into the warehouse, and Wang Laohao is responsible for managing the accounts for the time being.

Within a few days, he successfully scraped together seven or eight thousand taels of silver.

A few days later, Jin Xiangyang from Zhong'anbao, Li Fengxiang from the Centennial Haohe Jewelry Store, Tian Xiaoting from Tianjiazhai, and Judge Du from Heiyunzhai each sent someone to send 5,000 taels of silver, totaling 20,000 taels, to support the formation of a security team.

Zhang Tianhe announced that all members of the security team, once hired, would be given 10 taels of silver per month, pork stewed tofu, beef stewed vermicelli, white flour steamed buns, and white rice.

When the news came out, in an instant, there were hundreds of people who came to sign up for the security team, Zhang Tianhe, Tang Dalong and others screened and screened, selected and selected, and finally, recruited 30 young, strong young men as new team members, plus the original team of Zhongwumen, the number of people expanded to about 50 people.

On this day, Zhang Tianhe held a meeting with everyone.

The first thing: Zhang Tianhe announced the ten major organizational disciplines of the security team, there are no rules, there is no circle, now there are many people, it is inevitable that the good and the bad are uneven, and the ideas are different, which was read out by Li Sizhe in public: First, it is not allowed to molest, rape women, go to the kiln, second, it is not allowed to enter the house to rob, and the people are automatically used for a stitch and a thread, third, it is not allowed to fight, fourth, unity, in the event of an enemy, it is never allowed to see death without help, and so on.

"Brothers, our friendship is friendship, the system is the system, we want to protect the local people, live up to the people's high expectations for us, so that in the future, bigger and stronger, everyone can find a good future, the rules and regulations I announced must be obeyed by each of us, which dares not to listen, when the time comes, don't blame me Zhang for turning his face and being ruthless."

"Yes, Captain." Everyone said in unison.

The second thing: build a base area.

"In the past, there were few of us, and here in my house, it will be enough, but now there are more people, and they are all crowded into my place, and the place is too small, so I decided to relocate the site and build our base area."

"Where is the captain going to build our base?" Wu Dalang asked.

"The location of the base is very important, and it is related to our future development, and even life and death. In ancient times, the Great Qin in the western pass had the Hangu Pass, which has always blocked the six eastern countries from the pass, and the Qin Shi Huang was finally able to smoothly unify the six countries, which is also one of the main reasons; The Ming Dynasty had a mountain pass, which had always kept the Qing soldiers out of the pass, if it weren't for Wu Sangui leading the Qing soldiers into the customs, how could they be full of people who could enter the Central Plains? ”

When everyone heard this, they nodded their heads in praise.

"Recently, I found that there is a place called Chenjiayu between our Xiaozhangzhuang and Gaoxu Town, this place is a natural pass, the north side is backed by the mountain, there is a natural city wall in the south, the south is low and the north is high, but the inside is very wide, even if we build a training ground in it, it is more than enough to build thousands of houses, we only need to carry out simple repairs to this city wall, build a strong gate, and, the most rare thing is that there is a natural cave inside, Even if there are tens of thousands of people can be accommodated, what is more fortunate is that there is a spring in the cave, the water is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is simply a natural storage room and air-raid shelter, in the future, if there is a war, we will close the door, even if there are thousands of troops and horses, they can not help me, as the so-called one man checks, ten thousand people do not open! ”

"Captain, I didn't expect you to know so many things and think so far!" Wu Dalang said, "I have also been to that place before, and it is indeed as the captain said, but I only went to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but I didn't think about it as much as the captain." ”

Everyone listened, and they unanimously agreed to build a base there.

"Ninth brother, you are a student at the Russian Military Artillery Academy, this task will be handed over to you, in the long run, you will repair according to the fortifications of the artillery, the stronger the better!"

"Yes, please rest assured, captain, I will do my best!" Li Sizhe said.

The third thing: train new players.

"Chen Jia, how are your injuries?" Zhang Tianhe looked at Chen Jia, "Does it still hurt in your body?" ”

"It's much better, it's been restored." Chen Jia replied.

"That's good, this newly recruited team member lacks training, in order to avoid bloodshed and sacrifice in wartime, we must step up training, and train each of them as special forces, so that one is ten, among us people, Brother Tang and your kung fu is the best, and the training will be handed over to the two of you to be fully responsible."

"Yes!" Chen Jia and Tang Dalong replied.

"In addition, I decided to divide all the team members into four shifts and patrol in our security area, day and night, in turn. Tang Dalong led a group, Li Sizhe led a group, Dongfeng and Hongzhong led a group, and Chen Jia led a group, always keeping one of the groups on patrol, and in case of emergency, they immediately reported it, and the other three groups were training at home," Zhang Tianhe said. ”

"Yes!" Everyone agreed.

"Wu Dalang, there is another special matter that I want to leave to you."

"Captain, please." Wu Dalang stood up and said.

"Our county lord Sun Qing is your sister-in-law, right?" Zhang Tianhe asked.

"Yes, Captain."

"Then please take a trip and tell the county magistrate about the difficulty, just say that the reason why we set up a security team is because of our difficulties, and it is really a last resort."

"Captain, don't worry about this, this matter is on me, I will say that our security team is to protect the territory and the people, protect the people, not kill people everywhere, set fire to the beard, he as a local parent official, has no ability to protect the local people, we will protect ourselves by our own ideas, I let him usually have nothing to do, don't come to us for trouble, not only that, if there is anything up, he must inform us in time, we can take corresponding preventive measures," Wu Dalang said in a heartfelt manner, "Look, everyone, How do I say that? ”

Everyone looked at him talking like the top boss of the county government, and they all smiled and said, "That's very good!" ”

"Who's that!" Zhang Tianhe shouted.

"Here! Command, Captain! The one stood up and saluted Zhang Tianhe.

"Don't be idle, go out and wander around when you have time, and see if you can gather some information of practical value." Zhang Tianhe said.

"Yes, please rest assured, captain, promise to complete the mission."
