Qipan Mountain was located in the northeast of Fengtian City. It was adjacent to Fushun in the east, Hun River in the south, and Tieling in the north. It was about 20 kilometers away from the center of Fengtian City. Qipan Mountain belonged to the Hada Ridge of the Changbai Mountain system. It was located in the western extension of the low mountain and hilly area of Liaodong. It was a structural erosion hilly landscape with an altitude of 100-266 meters. The terrain slope varied from 10-30 degrees, with an average slope of about 15 degrees. It was northeast to southwest.
Chessboard Mountain, a tourist attraction, was 260.1 meters above sea level and was the second highest peak. There used to be a giant stone chessboard at the bottom of the mountain. Legend has it that the immortal Lu Dongbin and Tie Guaili once played chess here. This was the origin of the name of the Chessboard Mountain. Huishan Mountain was 265.9 meters above sea level, the highest among all the mountains. The ridge of the mountain was bare, and from afar, it was gray and white, just like the snow pressing on the mountain peak." Huishan Qingxue " was one of the eight scenic spots in Shengyang. Dayang Mountain was 241.8 meters above sea level, and its shade covered the sun, so it was called " Yangshan Pinecui ".
Qipan Mountain was rich in species and was a transition zone between Changbai Mountain flora, North China flora and Mongolia flora. In the early spring, the mountain red, peach, plum, and apricot trees bloomed all over the mountains. In late autumn, hazelnuts, mountain red, and other fruits were piled up, making it a spectacular sight.
Within the boundary of Chessboard Mountain, there was a place called Xiu Lake. Xiu Lake was surrounded by mountains. It was 3.3 kilometers long from east to west and 1.5 kilometers wide from north to south. It covered an area of 5.04 square kilometers and had a normal water storage capacity of 30 million cubic meters. The lake water was clear and rich in aquatic resources.
Xiuhu was the largest scenic spot within the Chessboard Mountain. The clear water held by the four sides formed a "Xiu" character, so it was called "Xiu Lake". The area of Xiu Lake was 50,000 square meters. It was surrounded by mountains and water. The mountains stood along the water, and the water circled around the mountains. The mountains and water were beautiful and moving. It wasn't as wide as the Hun River, nor as swift as the Pu River. Xiuhu was beautiful because of its calm and depth. This calm and depth came from the heart of watching the Laker, and it was the inspiration for watching the Laker's pursuit of thousands of miles.
On the east side of Lake Xiu, there was a place called the General Platform, also known as King Han General Platform. It was a large stone platform that was one meter tall and covered an area of more than 20 square meters. It was said to be the remains of the Qing Taizu Nurhachi who conquered the world and mobilized his troops.
Nowadays, China was ruled by the Han Chinese, not the Nurhachi Manchu. However, the same thing was true. The world was not good, the bandits were rampant, and the tyranny was fiercer than a tiger. The number of people who left their homes and wandered about was increasing year by year. As a result, Chess Board Mountain was definitely not a peaceful place. There was a group of bandits in China who took a fancy to Chess Board Mountain, a place with good Feng Shui. They occupied the mountain and became kings. They roared through the forest and settled down. After three generations of hard work, outsiders recognized Chessboard Mountain as their territory. They had more than 10,000 bandits under them. Their equipment might not be as good as the government army, but their numbers were more than a standard division. Up until 1927, they had firmly rooted themselves in Chessboard Mountain.
Chessboard Mountain was not discovered, developed, or developed by someone with the surname Liang. However, after the Opium War, Chessboard Mountain was occupied by a " villain " named Liang Gu. The reason why Liang Gu was called a villain was because in the Qing Dynasty's anti-rebellion records, Liang Gu was called " Liang Ni "," Liang Thief "," Liang Rebellion ", and so on. Naturally, generally speaking, due to different standpoints, different classes, and different thoughts, Generally, people who were viewed as traitors and traitors by the Qing Dynasty were basically the " great saviors " who saved the Chinese nation for the country and the people, as well as the hope of the Chinese nation. However, because this bandit named Liang Gu had already passed away for decades, as to what kind of person Liang Gu was, it could only be based on hearsay, groundless speculation, and the most reliable historical records.
However, the fact that Liang Gu had descendants did not need any evidence to prove it. After Liang Gu became king on Chessboard Mountain, he married a Chinese woman and gave birth to a son named Liang Liangfeng. Liang Liangfeng's son continued to be his bandit on Chessboard Mountain and developed his career. Similarly, Liang Liangfeng also married and had a son on Chessboard Mountain. He gave birth to a son named Liang Tianchao. From then on, the Liang bandits on Chessboard Mountain had three generations of descendants here and returned to their roots. Show off your skills and work hard for your career!
Time flew by, and the stars moved. Flying swords flew like shuttles. In the blink of an eye, countless seasons passed by. Year after year passed by in a flash without any pause. People gradually grew, grew up, died, and were buried. From 1840 to 1927, the people outside Chessboard Mountain had been living according to this pattern. The three generations of Liang family in Chessboard Mountain were the same. The Liang family was a family of six people. Now, only Liang Liangfeng and Liang Tianchao were left. Liang Gu, his wife, and Liang Liangfeng's wife had passed away one after another. They no longer existed and had become one with the dust!
Everyone died. It was the same for the Liang family and the bandits organized by the Liang family. The difference was that no matter what happened in this world, people had to live and could not seek death. The bandits led by the Liang family on Chessboard Mountain were also dead and alive. The old people died and the new people joined. The cycle repeated year after year. There was chaos in the stability and stability in the chaos. The number of bandits led by the Liang family on Chessboard Mountain remained stable at more than 10,000, at least not many. A conservative estimate was that if they really counted the number of people, there should be more!
In people's minds, bandits were a mob. They made a living by robbing and extorting. They lacked political foresight and were the bad image of bandits in movies about law and order. They behaved wantonly, did whatever they wanted, and were unwilling to be restrained by any rules. However, in reality, any organization in human society that wanted to exist and carry out activities for a long time had to follow certain rules and be bound by certain restrictions. It was impossible for them to have absolute freedom and no restrictions.
Bandit organizations were indeed the most dissolute, undisciplined, and least willing to be restrained among the various organizations in human society. However, this meant that they were not bound by the laws, morals, and other public rules of normal society. Generally speaking, most bandit groups had internal restrictions, and some bandit groups had rather strict discipline.
Although there are many bandits in the Celestial Empire, a bandit group usually has a few hundred people. A group with thousands of people is already considered a powerful group. However, the Liang Bandits on Chessboard Mountain were able to gather a standard division of troops. Just based on this point, we can't tell that this Liang Bandits are indeed extraordinary!
There was no doubt that the bandits of Chess Board Mountain were large-scale bandits. They belonged to the bandit army type of bandits. The bandit army was the militarized bandits and the bandit army. They were all organized according to the military system, with armies, divisions, brigades, regiments, battalions, companies, platoons, and staff officers, military supplies, military law, detectives, and so on. The opening of orders, drills, martial law orders, etc. were also imitated by the army. For example, Mao Sizhong, a bandit from Shandong," had gathered more than 10,000 men under his command. He was actually organized according to the army and named the Dingguo Army. He also had staff officers, armaments, law enforcement, secretaries, reconnaissance, and other departments." This was an army of bandits. It was also reported that in the early years of the Republic of China, many defeated troops in Sichuan Province were stationed in various places and acted as bandits. They had orders, uniforms, coaches, restraints, excellent equipment, and complete equipment, just like the layout of the army. This was the bandit army.
Liang Liangfeng and Liang Tianchao, who were still alive, knew that since they were part of the bandit army, they should develop their own organization in this direction. Like Mao Sizhong, the Liang father and son made the same decision as Mao Sizhong to build their troops. They also knew that their troops were either advancing or not retreating. They had to be able to surpass their masters. Therefore, training troops, nurturing talents, and having a large amount of money and food were all necessary for them!
Mercenaries and bandits were needless to say. Armed groups like this had to be trained every day to have terrifying combat power. They would not be looked down upon by others and thought of as a bunch of motley crew. Fortunately, if you knew how to train your troops, whether it was government troops or bandits and mercenaries, you could train them and form a powerful combat power!
There were many ways to train troops. Moreover, different troops and different teams needed different training methods. This would be explained one by one in the future. However, the time for training troops could be disclosed. Out of the 24 hours a day, the bandits of Chess Board Mountain trained for 11 or 12 hours. The rest of the time was used for sleeping, resting, and entertainment.
To be more specific, the bandits of Chess Board Mountain woke up at six o'clock every day. After washing up and having breakfast, it was officially time for their training. Basically, they started their training at eight o'clock. After training until twelve o'clock, it was time for lunch. After half an hour, they would have lunch and then take a two-hour nap. At two-thirty, they would continue their unfinished training until about five-thirty in the afternoon. Then, it was time for dinner. It was also half an hour of mealtime, but the "martial arts" training team was completely over. Next was the "cultural attack" training team.
The current trend of society was a society of " talents ". Talents were naturally sought after by every person, every group, and every organization. The Liang father and son from Chess Board Mountain, who knew that " geniuses " were not as good as " talents ", had specially spent a lot of money to hire many kinds of teachers, such as retired private school teachers who were responsible for teaching people to read and write, and disabled soldiers who were hired to support their families. For example, they invited literary and art personnel who needed to find a " protective umbrella " to prevent themselves and their families from being bullied, invited top students who were proficient in foreign languages and returned from abroad, invited experienced creatives who were good at inventions, and so on…
Strictly speaking, these people were not part of the Chess Board Mountain bandits. They were all 'teachers' that the Liang father and son had hired from various places to train their own team. Their skills were different, and their loyalty to the Liang father and son was not very high. They could come to the Chess Board Mountain to teach the bandits purely because of the money!
There were many ways for bandits to make money, such as selling drugs, kidnapping and robbing, intimidating others, protecting people, and so on. Liang Liangfeng and Liang Tianchao had used all of these methods to make a living, and they had not been eliminated until now. Moreover, the Liang father and son had also invented another way to expand the source of funds, which was to open up the scenic area of Chess Board Mountain to earn tourism fees. They used the characteristics of the Chinese and foreigners who loved to travel to make more money!
Bandits were definitely not a group of simple-minded and well-developed people. They were not the kind who knew nothing except fighting and killing. Besides, since the leaders of Chess Board Mountain had opened up a part of Chess Board Mountain to expand their business, it was not difficult for people with brains to imagine that Chess Board Mountain must be heavily guarded. There were countless sentries in the open and in the dark. Patrollers were everywhere. Otherwise, if the bandits of Chess Board Mountain did not do so, then…Many people with ulterior motives would take advantage of the situation to become spies and steal the countless secrets of the bandits on Chess Board Mountain. Ever since the Liang father and son had this extra way of making money, there had been no incidents until now. Even if they wanted to pick a bone in an egg, it would not be a problem. From this, one could see how difficult it was to deal with the bandits on Chess Board Mountain!
Previously, Zheng Enxin had led more than 8,000 people, and they were the second largest bandit group in the northeast of China. There was no doubt that the Liang father and son, who had more than 10,000 people, were the largest bandit group in the northeast of China. In fact, this was the truth. Zheng Enxin's bandit group was the second largest bandit group in the northeast of China, while the Liang father and son from Chess Board Mountain were the largest bandit group in the northeast of China. Even in the entire China, they were ranked on the bandit rankings!
As the saying goes," Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain, and a woman cannot serve two husbands." Although Zheng Enxin and the Liang father and son were on Meteor Mountain while the latter was on Chessboard Mountain, and there was quite a distance between them, there was bound to be some burden under the fame. For various reasons, Zheng Enxin and the Liang father and son did not have a good relationship. They were basically enemies!
Zheng Enxin was not a patriot. However, the Liang father and son were different. The two of them, as well as the three generations of Liang Gu's grandfather and grandson, were all patriots. In that case, it was hard to imagine that they must have known each other and heard each other's names. If the two of them were like-minded people, they would definitely not become enemies. Instead, they would become the best friends in the bandit industry. It was possible for them to coexist peacefully and become a good story. However, it was unknown whether it was fortunate or unfortunate. The biggest reason was that Zheng Enxin was a traitor. Moreover, the Liang father and son were a group of people who abhorred evil. Both publicly and privately, the Liang father and son believed that they had to eliminate Zheng Enxin. As for whether they should eliminate Zheng Enxin's subordinates, that would depend on the specific analysis of the problem!
Zheng Enxin and the Liang father and son had been bandits in the northeast of China for more than ten years. As they did not like each other, there were many small skirmishes between the two parties. Among them, the Liang father and son won more than they lost. One of the most important reasons was that the Liang father and son had a secret weapon that was enough to make Zheng Enxin and the others suffer!
