Something went wrong, will fix it later.Please forgive me!

It has been three days since the canal defense camp was completed, and in just three short days, Pang Zi has almost formed a habit of waiting at the intersection to the west of the village every day at sunset.Pang Tianshuo and several other brothers were sent out by Pang Zi to contact the gangsters in the Taihang Mountains, at least to find a temporary shelter in the west.In the past few days, Pang Zi also studied the geographical environment of Nangong County. To the east is Tianjin.The old lair of the Beiyang Army, if you go there, you will die.

Going south is the Shandong Canal District, and there are many forces along this line.These forces are not good stubble, and no one can accept a large number of forces with horses and guns suddenly appearing on their own territory.If Pang Zi brought his brothers here, he wouldn't even have to go too far to start the fight.And one of the reasons why Pang Zi must not go east is that the fifth town of the Beiyang Army is located in Jinan Prefecture.He couldn't avoid Pang Zi of the Beiyang Army, let alone take the initiative to rely on the established Beiyang Army.

Going to the north is not enough, the north is the scope of the capital, and it is a dead end to take the initiative to go to the past.

Only to the west, to the Taihang Mountains, is the place where the imperial court is weak.The brothers really hid in the mountains, and the officers and soldiers might not be able to find them.But hiding in the mountains has a big problem, food supplies cannot be effectively supplemented.It will be winter soon, if Pang Zi rashly takes his brother to the mountains, he will just wait to die of freezing and starving.

Pang Zi's plan is simple to say, to find a place to stay in Taihang Mountains.Pang Zi took a large amount of foster care to the west, and bought some food on the way, so that he could hide in the Taihang Mountains for a winter.Although Pang Zi attacked the Canal Defense Battalion, it was impossible for the officers and soldiers to stay in Xingtai for a few months anyway.If Pang Zi's whereabouts could not be found, they would withdraw no matter what.After the spring, Pang Zi said to go back to Nangong County.Although the Escort Bureau will definitely not be able to do it, it will be a winter anyway.Pang Zi can do a lot of preparations. It is also possible to contact Brother Wu Xingchen in Shandong in winter and start a career with those brothers in Shandong.

But until now, all of this is just Pang Zi's imagination.From Nangong County to Taihang Mountain, it takes at least seven or eight days to go back and forth.Pang Zi felt that it would take ten days and a half months for Beiyang to come to Gaojiazhai.He is going to train his brothers well in these five or six days.After all, the days to come will not be as easy as running darts.

Pang Zi led the horse team to practice outside the village every day.Charge, return, return, charge.The brothers not only have to train the queue, but also have to train the shooting.Pang Zi felt sorry for the ammunition. The more than 200 people under him as the backbone now have 3000 guns, but the ammunition is only a pitiful [-] rounds, and most of them were seized from the Canal Defense Battalion.Practice shooting can only be done with old-fashioned muskets.For all armed forces these days, it is certainly not easy to acquire a few muskets, but it is even more difficult to ensure the supply of ammunition.Even if it is an honest musket, the ammunition is not so easy to replenish.After two or three days of training, many guns have run out of ammunition.

The people in Gaojiazhai began to evacuate to other places under the persuasion of thirteen members of the peasant association.Pang Zi saw with his own eyes that Mr. Jing Tingwen was standing in the yard of a peasant family who refused to leave, and said in a loud voice unique to the elderly: "What are you afraid of when you say you don't leave? What is it for? What do you want now? Those things that are protected, the officers and soldiers will never give you anything left. If you are captured by the government, you will have to pay 50 taels of silver to redeem you. Why don’t you pay a lot of money for that small amount of money?”

The old man is right, and the officers and soldiers ravaged Gaojiazhai five years ago, and everyone still remembers the situation at that time clearly.Although they didn't want to lose a penny of the things in the house, the common people still thought it was best to leave after weighing the gains and losses.

Two peasant association members had relatives in Fucheng, and they volunteered to take the people to Fucheng.But not many people followed them.It's a long way to go to Fucheng. With the whole family and so many belongings, how can I run so far.

Most of them took refuge with their relatives in nearby Shili Baxiang, and some went to Shandong.All in all, the work of the peasant association was quite fruitful. Three days had passed, except for a few villagers who were unwilling to leave, as long as they were willing to leave.Members of the peasant association will definitely get them away.

Pang Zi waited at the intersection to the west of the village until it was getting dark before going back to the village.But he saw Chen Tianhua coming out with a large group of people pushing a wheelbarrow.It's been almost a year since he came to Hebei, and Chen Tianhua's skill in pushing the unicycle is still not very good, that is, he is no longer crooked.After a closer look, I saw that these people were the family members of the members of the peasant association.

For some reason, Pang Zi felt a little desolate in his heart.There are fewer and fewer people in Gaojiazhai. The once lively Zhuangzi is now almost silent in the middle of the night, making people feel an indescribable discomfort.The last time we quarreled, Pang Zi deliberately avoided Chen Tianhua, but at this time he didn't want to continue to be angry, Pang Zi stepped forward and said, "Husband Chen, are you going to finish?"

Chen Tianhua said calmly: "There are still five or six households left. I think they mean that if members of our peasant association don't leave, they won't leave either. That's just right, we'll leave first. We'll go to persuade them tomorrow. Persuasion. People from the peasant association have all left, if they refuse to leave, there is nothing I can do.”

After finishing speaking, Chen Tianhua suddenly said to Pang Zi: "Brother Pang, thank you for abiding by the agreement these days. You don't care about the common people at all. I thank you for everyone."

For Chen Tianhua's "understanding", Pang Zi could only smile wryly.
