Chapter 343: Killing Chickens and Terrifying Monkeys
“As I said last time, Mizina is close to a large river and has many small rivers. The terrain is good and can be developed into farms in the future as the main food production area in the future. Although it is smaller than It’s not as good as the natural conditions in the south, but it’s still pretty good.”
“Chicken farms and lumber mills can be opened nearby to provide employment. It will become a livable place in the future. After all, it’s close to home and less dangerous. The family members who come later will be placed here first. "
Everyone nodded. As long as the family members come, the first step is to get here. It is indeed safe, easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you watch a bridge, no one can cross.
“The small town of Pagang has a population of nearly 3,000. These are all resources. In the future, commerce can be the main focus here, with mining as a supplement. We should seize the time to contact several nearby forces for joint development and construction. Of course, if he doesn’t cooperate, we’ll have to fight him to make him cooperate.”
“Chief, I don’t even need to fight. If I drive the tank around, I’ll probably be scared to death.”
Zhou. Dayong was very happy. He drove one today, but unfortunately he didn't fire a shot.
“Don’t just think about good things. People are hiding in the mountains. Your tank can’t drive up there. Remember, we must unite them as much as possible. As long as they join our construction, get paid, and buy How can he continue to stay in the mountain when he gets something better?"
"The chief wants to trick them all into serving us."
"This is the wrong word, we are letting them. They feel the new life and accept it willingly. As long as they don’t resist, we will try not to do anything.”
"Let them know that with their wages, they can drink better wine, eat better food, and live in more beautiful houses. Will there be any people who don't come down from the mountain?"
"Didn't we send thousands of them this time? Canned meat? How about it? It tastes good.”
The canned meat Zhu Xuefeng mentioned came from the Fuso base. It was produced during World War II and there was a huge backlog. Even after decades, it was still there. Used, it is a color-changing lethal weapon known to the Bald Eagle troops.
There is a thick layer of white grease on the top of the can, and solid meat underneath. These things make the Bald Eagle soldiers vomit when they see them. It is too greasy, but for Song Yan and the others now, It is an extremely rare delicacy.
"Chief, that can is called Yixiang. It's full of good meat. One bite will make your mouth water, haha."
Seeing everyone laughing, Zhu Xuefeng also said with a smile, "Using this kind of thing to attract them, as well as my thousands of years of delicacies, after eating this, are they still willing to live a life of not having enough to eat wild fruits every day."
"You guys Don’t worry, you can get a lot of cans like this and they’re not expensive. How about it, are you confident?”
A few people nodded excitedly. Indeed, no one can do it this way. Resist the temptation, this will make it easier to return to your heart and expand your team.
“Of course, for those who are stubborn, we don’t have so much energy to enlighten them.”
“What construction needs to be carried out is included in the plan. Let’s take a look and discuss it together later. When the conditions are ripe, I will find someone to build a hydropower station on the big river in Mizina. It is such a waste that the water flows like this all year round.”
"By the way, while constructing, don't forget the phased tasks. We must find out the route to Zhare as soon as possible. It is best to open it up in two to three years and open an outlet to the sea in Zhare."
"The south hasn't noticed us yet. We can still use this time to carry out trade, and we can also use their ports to import and export materials. But one day they will discover us, so we must have this outlet to the sea."
Song Yan and Li Xiaojun nodded. They had already discussed this issue when they were in Xiangjiang. When they were small and not exposed, they could use this line to carry out trade with Xiangjiang. Once the south noticed it, the north If a large force emerges, this trade route will inevitably be cut off.
"This is very arduous and important. As long as we control this place, all future construction and development, including all supplies for the battle, will come from here. It can be said that this is also one of our lifelines in the future."
“What about the road from Mizina to home? Are you still in a hurry?”
“You can’t stop there either. The upfront requirements are not high. It just needs to be open to traffic. This is not easy. , take your time.”
“Now let’s talk about this, we have moved dozens of kilometers westward in one breath, and we are one step closer to Zhare. Since we have captured Pagang in advance, this lifeline should also be there. Get through in advance.”
“One more thing, we must cultivate an elite team of about ten people by the end of this year and the beginning of next year. At the same time, we must figure out the road conditions leading here next summer.”
"Chief, this has reached the door of Asan. Are we going to build over Asan's side?"
A few people laughed, Zhou Xingguo touched his head, and he also Happy.
Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile, "I hope this day will come. This will not be announced for now. I will tell you in advance when the time comes."
"Boss, if this is the case, we only have sixty-three combatants and we will not be able to take care of them at all." But come here, the stall has suddenly grown so much.”
Li Xiaojun asked, it’s about 80 kilometers from Mizina, and we have to take care of Mizina and have to explore two routes, which is obviously too busy. Come.
"This, our commander-in-chief has already considered this. People must be added, but they must be reliable. This cannot be rushed. If you move too fast, there will be consequences. If there are more people, the combat effectiveness will be smaller, so It’s better to be lacking than to abuse.”
“Immediately carry out training and ideological education after recruitment, so that they understand that guarding here is to protect their homeland.”
“Well, the leader is right. According to this idea, should we divide the fields first so that they can have the motivation to protect them?"
Zhu Xuefeng looked at Song Yan approvingly. "The commander-in-chief said it very well just now. Here I have made a simple planning diagram for you to expand your ideas. One way is to divide the fields, and to recruit workers and employees. As long as they can gain benefits from the construction, They will support us."
"We just want them to be tied to our interests, so that all promotion work can be efficient."
"Don't worry, boss, we know what to do. But I still have two ideas, please support me from the leader."
Zhu Xuefeng looked at Song Yan unexpectedly again. "Say it, I support whatever is reasonable."
"First, the names for you in the team are too confusing now. I suggest unifying them."
The same old tune repeated itself, Zhu Xuefeng nodded. "What's your suggestion?"
"I suggest calling the leader within the team and the leader outside the team."
Zhu Xuefeng turned to look at the other three people, and they all nodded.
"Okay, let's follow your suggestion."
Zhu Xuefeng didn't like either of these titles and rejected them at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he let it go.
“Do you have any other ideas? Let’s talk about it.”
“We have conveyed our willingness to cooperate friendly with the four ethnic groups among the repatriated miners and women. Unexpectedly, there should be news tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. This is related to the external relations of our entire team. I suggest you stay and host the meeting."
Seeing the other three nodding unanimously again, Zhu Xuefeng had no choice.
“You know I’m very pressed for time now. Forget it, being able to listen to suggestions is an important way to grow. I accept suggestions.”
Li Xiaojun actually took the lead in applauding, and several others applauded.
"Okay, okay, I can be considered a young man after being detained by you for a few days. By the way, the time to pick up the family members must be arranged as soon as possible. The earlier the reunion, the earlier the peace of mind. If there are many people, you can go back in batches. Try not to Reduce the combat effectiveness. I think we can make arrangements after the talks between the parties are completed. "
"Chief, many of these miners are local Chinese, and many of them have lost their families. Can you recruit some to strengthen the team?"
"I don't care if you screen them yourself. By the way, how many miners are left?"
Zhou Dayong reported, "334 people, less than 60 were released, and the rest are all He said that as long as he was paid, he would be willing to work. Many people used to work here for wages, but they stopped paying them after they took over.”
“Well, we don’t have to pay too much for wages. It’s harsh everywhere, but you don’t need so many people to mine. Just leave a few dozen people to dig slowly. Other prisoners must also participate in the construction.”
“By the way, except for the twenty-two women. The two returned to the village, but the others did not dare to go back. Two of them were arrested when they came to visit relatives. "It is indeed difficult for these people to go back. If they go back, they will probably be executed by the tribe," Zhu Xuefeng looked at with a smile. Xiang Songyan.
“How about giving these people to the Feng sisters and putting them to good use for me.”
…
The town is still the same, except that they are temporarily unable to go out. The locals quickly calmed down from the panic in the early morning, and the news that the mining area was occupied by a group of more ruthless outsiders quickly spread.
There are also many people doing business outside, but they are not allowed to leave for the time being. It is said that it will be fine in a few days. A few are not convinced, but when they see the machine guns set up at the intersection, they accept the suggestion. Enjoy a few more days of nature in this charming town.
"Report!" The sentry on duty came back to report. Messengers from the four villages came overnight. They should have seen that the people in the mining area had been changed, and their own tribesmen were released to explore the bottom.
"Bring them to the backyard. I'll wait for them in the hall. Commander Song and I will come to receive them."
Many messengers came, more than ten people from the four families came in total. As the sentry walked into the camp anxiously, he was a little frightened when he saw the weapons and ammunition arranged in an orderly manner and heavy machine guns and light machine guns.
After seeing six tanks and four armored vehicles parked neatly, some tribesmen felt completely cold. This group of people was obviously more arrogant than the previous ones. These equipment were completely in this area. Invincible.
When they saw Zhou Xingguo and his men playing with mortars, another person completely lost their confidence. What is the cottage afraid of most? It’s not tanks, which can’t climb mountains, but it’s afraid of mortars, which can climb mountains easily. , but couldn't prepare for the fact that there were so many people in this group.
"Please come inside, our leader and commander are all inside."
Li Xiaojun is still very polite. Zhu Xuefeng has explained that he will tie their interests to his own in the future, so he is still polite. Point is appropriate.
…
"This is what I want to express. We uphold the principle of equality, cooperation and mutual assistance, and are willing to communicate and communicate openly with all parties, and work together to benefit everyone in this area."
"At the same time, we You are also welcome to participate in the construction of the town, you are welcome to come down the mountain to trade goods, and you are also accepted to work. We guarantee personal freedom and safety, and are absolutely fair and impartial. We can sign agreements and hold ceremonies in the temple according to your habits."
“But this town and mining area were bought with our lives and blood, and we will not give it up. I hope you know this.”
“Dear Sir, we are willing to interact with you on an equal footing. , we are also willing to sign an agreement and hold a ceremony with you. We will go back to convey your good intentions and hope that we can make an alliance as soon as possible."
The representatives of the two parties quickly expressed their stance. They are also one of the four. But there was still a big gap between them and the other two companies. At the same time, they had very little interest in the town and the mining area. Seeing the current situation, they directly accepted the facts.
Ignoring the other party's title, Zhu Xuefeng wanted to cut through the mess quickly. Time was really tight. The internship was supposed to start almost a week now. Although he said hello, it was unjustifiable to delay for too long.
“I hope you can convey our wishes when you go back. We hope we can reach an agreement one day earlier. You will find that cooperating with us is the most suitable choice for you, and you will never regret it.”
He turned around and asked the other two families. These two were larger, with a population of more than a thousand people in the village, and there should be dozens of guns. After seeing the scene in the yard, he was not too nervous. After all, It looks like there are only a few dozen people here.
“You do not agree to return the interests of our mine. It is difficult for me to promise you on behalf of our leader. Since you defeated the man named Gao for us, you should return our share. We account for 30%. "
"Do you think so too?"
"Yes, our Yibu tribe has the same requirements as the Dulong tribe. We also occupy 30%. Since you have driven them away, why can't you return the mine to us? You can still keep 40%, and we can also send people and troops. Let’s maintain the mine together.”
Zhu Xuefeng’s nose was almost crooked with anger. If someone takes it, you can take it. You can’t fight it anyway. If I take it, I will give it back to you. You are so beautiful.
"Are you sure this is what your clan leader meant?"
"Of course!"
These two are also the sons of the clan leader. They are really a bit arrogant and a little ignorant. Zhu Xuefeng's face turned dark when he saw it.
"In that case, please come back to the two of you. The covenant will be gone without you, so you can take care of yourself!"
"Humph!"
The representatives of the Dulong clan turned and left. , the Yibu tribe wanted to say hello, but when they saw the Dulong tribe leaving, they left directly.
The representatives from all directions were sent away, and several people sat down.
"Chief, the man surnamed Gao used these more than 200 guns to clean up this area. Now they probably see that there are not many of us, and they are probably not convinced. Since they have made it clear that they will not cooperate, they will stay. It’s better to act first and eliminate hidden dangers.”
Zhu Xuefeng thought for a while and nodded.
"Since we can't reach an agreement, let's not talk about it. If we have to show off our claws, then we will attack them. Today we will start with the Dulong tribe. You go and arrange it now."
This will happen in future generations. The folk customs in this land are extremely bad, maybe it's just in their bones, Zhu Xuefeng doesn't mind changing the customs here.
"Yes".
Looking at the few people hurriedly going out to arrange the arrangements, Zhu Xuefeng fell into deep thought again, whether this was right or not.
There is nothing right or wrong. I only have over a hundred people here who are full of people. I don’t have the energy to fight a protracted war with two large villages with more than a thousand people. If you don’t accept it, then I’ll beat you up.
In the end, only ten guards were left in the camp, followed by a dozen family members with guns to guard them. The original two tanks were left behind, which was enough.
The other four vehicles followed suit. Zhou Xingguo felt that even if he couldn't use them, showing off his power along the way could deter other small and medium-sized forces, so Zhu Xuefeng let him go.
"Xia Gong, why don't you go fight."
Looking at the messenger behind him, Zhu Xuefeng was a little surprised. He was not on the battlefield, so why did he send the order?
"Report to the leader, the commander asked me to stay."
The team has already left with the guide. With the armored personnel carrier, the team moves very fast, and Xia Gong will definitely not be able to catch up.
"Xia Gong, have you sent the messenger to the Yang family?"
"Report to the leader, select two people among the miners, send them out, and tell them that as long as they bring back the news, There is a huge reward, but there is no reply yet.”
The Yang family is a little far away, but it is much bigger than these four families. If we can get support from the Yang family, many things will be solved. .
The Dulong people were also surprised. The battle had already started before the people who went to negotiate came back. They only had less than fifty guns including firecrackers. The others were all cold weapons, including a round of mortars. and machine gun fire, killing more than a dozen people on the spot, and the stockade collapsed.
"Let your clan leader speak out, or you will bear the consequences."
Li Xiaojun shouted loudly with a loudspeaker, "If there is no reply in five minutes, we will fire!"
"Commander, this thing is really easy to use. It's better than the iron sheet."
"Don't fire, I'm coming out, don't fire."
"Let all those with blunderbuss and guns come out and surrender. If you insist on resisting, don't blame us for taking action."
