He didn't catch her.
The two men from the Clear Breeze Ridge were smart. When they saw the armored vehicle, they turned around and ran without hesitation.
Zhang Chaoqun didn't care. The Clear Breeze Ridge would be incorporated sooner or later.
He ordered people to build blockhouses and walls to connect Erdaogou's base with Qingfeng Ridge.
It didn't matter if the people of the Clear Breeze Ridge discovered it. The main point was the devils in Chao Yang County. As long as the devils didn't discover it, it was fine.
As more and more soldiers were mobilized, more and more manpower was invested in the construction work.
All kinds of bunkers, houses, and turrets surrounded the camp and gradually expanded outwards.
In a few days, it had a certain scale.
In the past few days, no Japanese soldiers had entered the surveillance range of the radar station.
This also meant that the Japanese didn't pay much attention to the situation in Chao Yang County. All their attention was focused on Lugou Bridge.
This gave Zhang Chaoqun more time to prepare.
In just a few days, Zhang Chaoqun already had more than 3,000 soldiers, more than ten soldiers, as well as medics and engineers.
As the number of people increased, the construction speed also increased.
Zhang Chaoqun decided to expand outward.
Within the range of his radar station, there were several villages and a town.
Only by expanding their territory could they rely on more advanced weapons and equipment, as well as systems and explosive soldiers to fight the Japanese head-on.
Zhang Chaoqun personally led more than 400 people, changed into casual clothes, and marched on foot to the nearest village, Shapo Village.
At dawn, the soldiers had already surrounded Shapo Village.
The entire village was scared to death. Zhang Chaoqun was too lazy to explain so much. He asked the villagers to pack up within an hour and then escort them back to Erdaogou Base.
The villagers thought that they had encountered bandits. Many of them were crying. When they left, Zhang Chaoqun asked the soldiers to help them move everything that was worth a little money in the village.
The villagers who did not cooperate were all taught a lesson.
After being beaten, those who were not honest also became obedient.
More than 300 men, women, and children dragged their families and walked for nearly two hours before they arrived at Erdaogou.
Once they arrived at the base, the villagers were shocked by the scene in front of them.
This place was simply spectacular!
Surrounded by solid walls, it was clean and stylish.
This was a bandit stronghold?
The villagers started discussing.
Zhang Chaoqun was still too lazy to explain. He immediately settled the villagers in the residential area that had been prepared earlier.
Zhang Chaoqun continued to expand the walls and blockhouses while training the villagers.
The villagers were well settled, and the bandits provided them with food.
Of course, these villagers also provided Zhang Chaoqun with a source of soldiers.
The military quality of the people trained in combat was slightly better than that of the mobilized soldiers. Even if they were not used on the battlefield, they could also be used for defense, operating various vehicles, and logistics personnel.
Zhang Chaoqun continued to grow and expand. His territory had already crossed Erdao Gully and spread to Shapo Village, which was twenty miles away.
Because he had unlocked the anti-air machine guns, Zhang Chaoqun placed 20 anti-air machine guns outside Erdaogou Base.
Each anti-air machine gun was equipped with a sturdy bunker, where the machine gunner and ammunition could be stationed for a long time.
There was strength in numbers. In just half a month, the base had already reached a considerable scale.
Zhang Chaoqun built a number of anti-air machine gun bunkers and several bunkers on top of the abandoned Shapo Village.
Once the Japanese discovered this place, they would be the first to fight a brutal street battle with Zhang Chaoqun's troops.
Shapo Village, which was filled with bunkers and anti-air machine guns, was enough to make the devils kneel in Shapo Village!
At this moment, Zhang Chaoqun already had more than 6,000 soldiers!
This team indeed needed to consume a large amount of food every day, but Zhang Chaoqun still did not stop farming because he knew that if he did not have a nest that completely belonged to him, he would always be rootless.
Lugou Bridge and Lianhe Village were still under the influence of the 28th Division.
He knew very well that the reason why Song Yuanze had such high regard for him was 90% because he could get his hands on advanced weapons and equipment. If Song Yuanze really wanted to be ruthless, his small piece of land was nothing!
Moreover, Zhang Chaoqun didn't want internal strife.
Zhang Chaoqun came to Erdao Gou and made up his mind to make his own territory here.
What's there to be afraid of if we fight the Japanese head-on!
Zhang Chaoqun came here to fight the Japanese to the end!
He used the Clear Breeze Ridge as a barrier behind him and relied on the complicated terrain of the surrounding forest. This place was indeed very suitable as a base.
After Zhang Chaoqun trained the villagers of Shapo Village, he immediately sent out a group of people to pretend to be bandits and pillage another village.
This time, the raid went relatively smoothly because the leaders were from Shapo Village. They knew each other well. After some persuasion, the villagers were willing to follow.
Indeed, after the Japanese occupied Rehe and exploited them, no one could escape! Who would be willing to be a slave to a subjugated country?
This time, after the people from Shapo Village came out, another group of people went over and brought back all the people from Gu Shanzi Village, who were a few miles away, half-persuaded and half-forced.
There were more than 1,600 villagers from several villages on this trip. They were all heading toward Erdaogou Base.
