Rebirth: I am in Jin-Cha-Ji

"I got the food."

The chief police officer who stayed behind spoke from behind.

He has to say it.

Behind him was a box gun, pressing against his waist.

"Why are you so late? Butler Chen just asked you?"

"Stop talking. I didn't push the cart properly and it fell into the ditch, spilling everything. Hurry and open the door. I need to go in and report to the housekeeper. I'm sure you'll get scolded."

"Come in quickly."

Zero vigilance.

Because compared to the previous chaos, these years have been very peaceful.

During the Central Plains War, some defeated soldiers tried to plunder Gaojiabao, but failed. Although many warlords came to plunder Gaojiabao, no one really wanted to take Gaojiabao.

The main reason was that Gao Linyue had currying favor with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the 29th Army.

As for the villagers of Gaotian Town?

This was how life had been going for decades, and no one dared to resist. Furthermore, there were some small landlords in Gaotian Town who, unable to defeat Gao Linyue, had no choice but to rely on him. Thus, Gaotian Town formed a power structure headed by Gao Linyue, which included some of the landlords of Gaotian Town. The villagers also had no power to resist.

Bandits had visited Gaotian Town in previous years. However, facing Gao Linyue's earthen fortifications, these bandits were powerless. Over time, the bandits have only come here to extort money. Unless Gaojiabao is captured, Gaotian Town is so impoverished that there's no need to visit.

So they just asked as a matter of procedure.

Gao Wei pushed the cart and looked around in the crowd.

Seeing a few guards standing and chatting inside the wall, and no one at the light machine gun station, he raised his hand and gestured. Gao Li, who was dressed as a police officer behind him, immediately touched the soldier next to him.

They had made preparations beforehand.

When the two men passed by the door, they suddenly attacked and dealt with the gatekeeper.

Gao Wei saw from the corner of his eye that Gao Li had already dealt with the servants at the door and walked towards the servants who were chatting. When the servants saw Gao Li and the villagers coming, they immediately scolded them, "Go over there, the food needs to be delivered inside."

"sorry Sorry."

Gao Wei immediately bent down to apologize.

But as soon as he bent down, the cart fell to the ground. The servants became even angrier. One of them stepped forward and kicked Gao Wei, saying, "You are so tall, but you are so incompetent. By the way, which village are you from? I've never seen anyone as tall as you."

After the servant kicked him, he asked with some confusion.

The servants' eyes were all on Gao Wei, and they didn't notice that the villagers had surrounded them.

"Don't move!"

Several people pretending to be villagers had pistols on their waists.

It hit the servant's waist directly.

"What do you want?"

The servant was being held down and asked tremblingly.

"Don't talk, or I'll kill you."

Gao Wei stepped forward and took out a Mauser pistol from the servant's belt. He looked at the pistol and said, "It's a waste to let you use such a good box gun. Gao Li, take the manned machine gun position."

"Yes."

"Everyone else, follow me. If you can solve the problem without a gun, don't use it. Of course, if necessary, you can use a gun decisively."

"Yes."

After dealing with the two servants at the door, the door at the back was opened to welcome the others in.

Gao Wei led his troops to the place where the guards were stationed. In the winter in the countryside, everyone would stay indoors around five in the evening. Winter nights in the north were too cold and dark.

This is the case with Gao Linyue's servants.

Gao Linyue trained the servants and provided them with a unified dormitory, just like a military camp.

Gao Wei is going to get rid of this.

It's really too easy.

Because they were completely unprepared. Gao Wei looked at these people with a certain degree of vigilance. If he were in the base, would he be just as unprepared as them? But it was precisely because of this lack of preparedness that Gao Wei and his men easily dealt with these servants.

There were more than fifty people in total.

Although they usually carried guns and bullied people everywhere, they had only fought off bandits in Tuweizi a few years ago. In fact, most of them had never actually fired a gun until now, and only fired a few shots at the beginning of training.

When faced with a regular army like Gao Wei's, they were completely scared.

How dare I resist?

After dealing with the retainer troops, Gao Wei felt relieved. Now the entire Gaojiabao was no longer threatened.

"Let's go and beat the local tyrants."

How rich a landlord is who owns four thousand acres of land.

You'll know once you take it down.

The warehouses were overflowing with grain. Chinese landlords had a characteristic: they loved hoarding money, land, and grain. Many Chinese landlords were interested in land, not business. They would rather bury their money than use it for business.

Gao Linyue is just like that.

The warehouse was overflowing with grain. Gao Linyue had been busy collecting grain from various villages, and it was all piled up here. Although Gao Wei didn't know how much, he estimated there were at least four or five hundred bags.

And that's not all.

The landowners are truly afraid.

The family had amassed a considerable stockpile of weapons. It was unknown where they had acquired the weapons, but all the rifles were Hanyang rifles. Gao Wei counted the spoils of the battle and found over 160 Hanyang rifles and over Mauser pistols.

The Gao family has been saving money for generations, and Gao Linyue has been saving for more than 40 years.

The assets are amazing.

Modern people would never understand why such a wealthy landlord didn't live in a big city, but instead stayed in such a backward rural area. In fact, this was the choice of most landlords in this era.

Chapter 077 Gaotian Town Anti-Japanese Base

Things have changed in Gaotian Town.

The people of Gaotian Town were completely terrified. When they woke up the next morning, they discovered that Gaojiabao, the local tyrant and perhaps even the most powerful force in the town, had been breached and Gao Linyue, the local tyrant, had been captured. Everyone began to panic.

Who can break through Gaojiabao overnight?

bandit?

But Huang Hao is very experienced in this kind of thing.

He has killer copper.

food.

Gaotian Town was not wealthy, and the farmers there went hungry half the year. At that time, they could only eat wild vegetables to fill their stomachs.

This time when we captured Gaojiabao, we found several warehouses full of grain.

There is an astonishing amount of food.

Huang Hao had done the math. Gaotian Town had fewer than 3,000 people, or fewer than 500 households. The Advance Brigade had enough food, so distributing 100 kilograms to each household wouldn't be a problem. Of course, Huang Hao couldn't give every household 100 kilograms all at once.

Huang Hao decided to give each household 20 kilograms of food.

Of course, several landlords who followed Gao Linyue to work for the Japanese were also confiscated by Gao Wei. In fact, it was a bit unfair for them. Because they had never even seen the Japanese. It was just that Gao Linyue chose to surrender to the Japanese, so they just followed Gao Linyue. So far, they have not done anything harmful to the world.

But for Gao Wei, it is necessary to deal with these people.

It was completely impossible to expect them to become allies in the anti-Japanese war. ② The 20 kilograms of grain caused a sensation throughout Gaotian Town.

Although most of this food was collected from them, the villagers were already grateful to be given just this little bit. Twenty kilograms of food might not seem like much to them, but if they saved it a little and mixed it with some wild vegetables, it could last them half full and half hungry for half a month or twenty days.

They immediately developed a favorable impression of the Advance Brigade.

They really want to understand what the Advance Brigade does?

Huang Hao started to work.

The others were all very welcome. After all, Gao Linyue and some other landlords owned more than 5,000 acres of land, accounting for half of the arable land in Gaotian Town, and all of it was the best arable land.

Huang Hao wants to distribute them to the people of Gaotian Town.

The public grain rate became 30%.

Compared to the rent they paid before, it is much cheaper.

How could they not be happy.

Many young people were enthusiastic about joining the army. Some clever young people even began to follow Huang Hao, helping him learn about the outside world. However, when it came to establishing an anti-Japanese base, many were less enthusiastic.

Anti-Japanese?

What is anti-Japanese?

For villagers in such a remote and isolated area, it was extremely difficult to explain the anti-Japanese war to them. Huang Hao's previous work in rural areas had a clear goal: to fight against the local tyrants and get the poor peasants to fight for their land.

But what about the anti-Japanese war?

What do these villagers know about national affairs and the country and nation?

Seeing Huang Hao anxious, Gao Wei pulled Huang Hao. Then he walked onto the stage and said, "Do you think that now that the Japanese are here, we can just pay taxes like before?"

"Comrade Gao, isn't that right? Everyone who comes here has to pay for food. Of course we like your troops because you collect the least money.

And you gave us land. We hope you will stay here forever."

After a few days of work, everyone's way of addressing each other changed.

Before, everyone called him "Comrade Gao," but now they all called him "Comrade Gao." Gao Wei shook his head and said, "You think too simply. Do you know what the Japanese did after they occupied Northeast China?"

"They first used the army to kill anyone who disobeyed or resisted them. Then they set up their own government agencies in various places. Did that end your situation? No. After the Japanese completely controlled Northeast China, they brought in a large number of farmers from Japan to form a pioneer group. Do you know what a pioneer group is?"

These villagers in Gaotian Town have never even left Gaotian Town, so how would they know where the Northeast is?

The pioneer group had never even heard of it.

So everyone looked confused.

Gao Wei explained loudly: "The pioneer group is Japanese farmers who came to China to cultivate the land. But all the land in China is cultivated by Chinese farmers, so where will the Japanese farmers cultivate the land? Of course, they will drive out the original farmers, and then make the Chinese farmers' land their own land, and cultivate it there."
