In a large courtyard surrounded by a two-meter-high mud wall, a hall made of green bricks stood in the middle of the courtyard. On both sides of the hall were two rows of houses with green bricks, wooden windows, and green tiles, forming a sharp contrast with the dilapidated thatched cottages outside the courtyard.
At this moment, in the middle of the hall, a thin middle-aged man sat beside a dark-red table. On his right was a blue-and-white porcelain teacup. The tea in the cup was still steaming.
Standing beside him was an old man in a grey mandarin jacket. He was about 50 years old and was currently speaking to the person sitting there.
"Old Master, County Head Wang sent someone back today. He said that he has already talked to Commander Song of the 29th division about the security regiment. It can be done, but they have to raise their own food and pay, and their own weapons. They also said that they need some money, but the amount is a little big."
"How much do they want?"
"Five thousand dollars!" After the old man said that, he tried to persuade her,"Why don't you discuss it with Young Master again? We don't want the name of the security team. This money can also buy a lot of bullets in the foreign firm."
"Do you think Li 'er will listen?" The middle-aged man who was sitting slowly asked. He held a teacup lid in his hand and slowly poked the tea leaves floating in the teacup."Go to the accountant's room and pay this sum of money. Give me an extra two thousand dollars so that Li 'er can buy some guns for those guards."
" Master, this…" The old man said hesitantly.
"Go. Oh right, has Li 'er been causing trouble outside recently?”The middle-aged man asked.
" That's not the case. Every morning, Young Master would bring our hundred or so guards into the mountains. He said that it was some kind of field training. He would only come back when it was dark every day. Then, he would spend the night reading and writing at home. He didn't go out much." The old man smiled when he said this.
"Last night, Young Master got a few guns from somewhere and even dressed his lackeys in rags like beggars. He asked them to run and shout something: Good luck, chicken dinner tonight!"
"Li 'er is still young and has lost her mother since she was young. I was also negligent in disciplining her. In the past, I was like a silkpants, bringing those few followers to wreak havoc everywhere in the village. Now that I've found something interesting and settled down, I feel much more at ease. This money can be used to buy peace for my fellow villagers." The middle-aged man who had been sitting there steadily and fiddling with his teacup finally revealed a gratified smile on his face."At night, ask the kitchen to stew a few chickens and send them to those guards. Being tortured by Li 'er like this every day is also fatal."
——————————，
On a piece of barren land, thirty or so young men with wooden crosses tied to their backs were practicing their formation under the guidance of two 'instructors.'?
On the other side, there were three people in a group. They held rifles with shiny blades on their backs and listened to the command to stab the scarecrows in front of them.
There were also a dozen people who were waving hoes and shovels with all their might. At this time, they had already dug a ditch that was one meter wide, half the height of a person, and more than twenty meters long.
"Bang bang bang ~"
"Da da ~~~"
In the distance, the crisp sound of gunshots rose and fell from time to time. Ten people were lying on the ground covered in animal feces, blood, and internal organs under the barbed wire fence. They held their guns and kept shooting at the target 200 meters away. From time to time, someone would come forward to correct them and curse.
To their sides, three machine gunners were firing at them with their ballistae raised. The sound of machine gun bullets piercing through the air was all they could hear.
Dozens of meters behind them, there were 20 to 30 people lined up in an orderly manner. They were waiting, but they were not just waiting there. Instead, each of them was holding a gun, and a stone weighing a few kilograms was hanging from the muzzle of the gun. Their faces were obviously pale, and cold sweat was dripping from their foreheads.
There were more than a dozen wooden boxes beside the waiting team. The top box was already half empty, and the rest were golden bullets lined with dried straw…
Further away, dozens of people were carrying logs about 20 centimeters in diameter and more than a meter long on their backs as they ran along a path that had been stepped out.
Under the shade of a tree, a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old sat on a rock with a cigarette in his mouth. He quietly watched everything in front of him. From time to time, he would pick up a telescope to observe the running team in the distance. Finally, he sighed.
This young man was called Chen Li. He was originally a high school student in the future. He did not know how he came to this damn place and had a master who doted on him very much. Moreover, his family had a mine, but it was not a mine. In short, he was rich.
If this condition was brought to the future, he would definitely be very proud of being pretentious and picking up girls. However, when God opened this window for him, he also closed the door for him. This was China, which was almost similar to the original time and space. 1937, Wanping County.
Anyone who has read modern history knows that there were several major events in 1937, such as the July 7 Incident, the Battle of Songhu, and the massacre in Nandu.
From his blurry memories, Chen Li learned that his predecessor was a silkpants and was famous for being a tyrant in Wanping County.
Although he hadn't done any bad things at this age, he had done a lot of things like throwing firecrackers into a manure pit, tearing apart roofs, digging up stalks of other people's fields, and setting traps on the road…Anyway, I have followers
If it weren't for his father and butler wiping his ass behind him, Chen Li felt that his predecessor would die at any moment. However, it was precisely because of this wiping that his predecessor became more and more excessive.
After adapting to this identity, the first thing Chen Li did was to persuade his cheap father, Chen Yong, to move to Sichuan Province and find a remote place to live.
In any case, the Japanese would not be able to recruit anyone in that place. Moreover, as long as they did not court death in the small mountain village, they would not be able to recruit any bombs. The Japanese did not have many resources!
However, Chen Li underestimated the sense of crisis and the sense of country awareness of the people of this era. He cried, threw a tantrum, and hung himself. He was only one last move away, but the old man still refused to move.
Just as Chen Li felt that his beautiful life was about to be destroyed, he finally awakened a system that allowed him to find a way to save the country and hope to change the tragic fate of China during that era.
