The news that hundreds of Long Blade Gang's soldiers had been killed in Wenjiangkou because of robbery spread quickly. At the hydroelectric dam seven kilometers downstream, thousands of corpses floated on the water. The hundreds of Changdao Gang soldiers' corpses were easy to identify, but the refugees' corpses were more difficult to identify. In the end, they were determined to be refugees who had perished together with the Changdao Gang soldiers. The media generally believed that the Changdao Gang soldiers had attacked the unarmed refugees, causing thousands of them to die. It was an act against humanity.
Chen Weizheng did not know about this news as the refugees had left the buffer zone. Chen Weizheng closed the steel gates and the first thing they did was to drink and celebrate. The news only came the next morning when the Wa Kingdom Army representative came to Wenjiangkou and requested to meet the leader of Xiuming Village. He only found out when he chatted with the representative of the Wa Kingdom Army.
The representative of Xiuming Village was the two Zheng Jianyi brothers, Chen Weizheng, Ou Jie, and Wu Guangxian.
The representative of the Wa Kingdom Army first presented his gifts: a truck of military supplies, a truck of canned food, and a truck of cloth. The military supplies were clothes, leather shoes, and belts. The canned food was supplied by the United States, and the cloth was of good quality. Zheng Jian'er accepted the gifts and asked someone to drive the truck to Xiuming Village. After unloading the truck, he brought some food to the buffer zone. Drinking and talking at the same time was China's style of negotiation. The negotiation took place in the buffer zone. Under a large tent brought by the United States, there was a large round table with ten folding chairs around it. It was simple but practical.
The representative of the Wa government's Axe Army expressed his condolences to Xiuming Village, and at the same time, he expressed his condolences to the people who had died. Chen Weizheng and the rest were confused. After asking around for a long time, they found out that the people who the outside world thought were dead were either soldiers or border people.
Wu Guangxian reacted quickly. He immediately put on a mournful face and said, "The losses this time are too great. The three villages and six strongholds are basically all dead. Only the old, weak, sick and disabled are left. They can only rely on the government to survive."
Looking at Wu Guangxian's face, Ou Jie sincerely admired him. Even the movie king Liang Chaowei couldn't compare to the variety of expressions on the faces of the grassroots leaders.
The representative from the Wa Kingdom Army was also surnamed Wu (Actually, his surname wasn't Wu, as Wu was a form of address for older men in the Wa Kingdom). Seeing his brother's tragic performance, a faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "Brother, don't you want revenge?"
"Yes!" Zheng Jian 'er cut in and said, "We want them to pay with their blood!"
Qu Jie's interest was piqued as he watched the show.
"The Government Axe Army will support you. You can organize an ethnic army and fight them," Representative Wu said.
"We're all farmers. We won't benefit from working with them. We can only protect ourselves first and think about other things later, "Chen Weizheng said.
"It should be easy to protect ourselves. But in other words, we'll be constantly getting beaten up. Rather than being beaten up, we might as well arm ourselves and fight others," Representative Wu said.
"Even if we defeat them, there won't be any benefits. If we kill ten thousand people, we'll lose three thousand of our own. It's not worth it! " Chen Weizheng said, "Moreover, our country is peaceful now. Everyone's living a good life. We don't want to fight unless there's a great temptation."
Representative Wu began to throw out temptations one after another, but they were all rejected by Chen Weizheng. In the end, Representative Wu said that if Jiuming Village could take care of the Changdao Gang, then the Changdao State that the Changdao Gang currently occupied would belong to Jiuming Village.
"If we take care of the Changdao Gang, what will happen if the Wa Kingdom regrets it?" Chen Weizheng asked, "Doesn't that mean that Jiuming Village will have to deal with the entire Wa Kingdom? Jiuming Village won't be a match for them. At that time, the Changdao State's territory will become empty words. The agreement will also become a piece of paper. Jiuming Village will become a joke. "
Representative Wu's face turned red as he said, "No, no, we're honest. We swear in front of Buddha."
Jiuming Village's side said that they would consider it. The other side didn't want to push them too far. Everyone drank and drank happily.
When they returned to the village, there were guests in the village. It was the patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan. He was talking with the old man who had discussed good and evil with Chen Weizheng yesterday, the patriarch of Jiuming Village, Zheng Bolong. The patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan was very emotional. Tears and snot flowed down his face as he sobbed.
"I know it's their fault. They shouldn't have rushed out of the buffer zone. But they shouldn't have died like that. They were thrown into the river after they died. It's worse than the dead pigs in Dongfang City. But they're humans, not pigs!" The patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan cried.
"That's right, that's right!" Wu Guangxian was the first to enter the hall. He said, "Just now, we heard Representative Wu say that the Changdao Gang's soldiers and the refugees were fighting over food. That's why there were so many deaths. We threw them into the river. There are so many dead people. They should go back to where they came from. We don't have the manpower to help them bury the dead. As for whether they bury them or not, it's none of our business. But for the next two years, I don't dare to eat the fish in the river. Just thinking about it makes me sick. "
Seeing that Wu Guangxian had pushed the blame away, the patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan stopped crying. His face was full of sorrow.
At this time, an ignorant young man ran in and asked Wu Guangxian, "Sixth Brother-in-law, we've made fifty thousand wooden bullets. Are we still making them?"
"Yes!" Wu Guangxian said, "We'll make five hundred thousand. Let's see if anyone dares to come and cause trouble."
Hearing this, the patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan let out a sorrowful cry and left. Elder Zheng Bolong sent the Straight Blade Clan Patriarch off. He said to the Straight Blade Clan Patriarch, "There are some things that are better left unknown. Pretending to be ignorant is better than being clear-headed. Some people are better off dead than alive."
The patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan looked at Elder Zheng Bolong, nodded, and left. When he returned to the clan, he called for a meeting and told his people that the Changdao Gang's soldiers and the refugees were fighting over food. That's why there were so many deaths. The people of Xiuming Village had no choice but to throw the corpses into the river and let the river take them back to their homeland. "In a country in turmoil, lives are as cheap as pigs and dogs. That's why we have to cherish the days when our country is stable. We have to contribute our strength to maintain the stability of our country, the harmony of our society, and the stability of our borders." Some of the scholars of the Flat Blade Clan organized the patriarch's words and posted it on the Internet. It became a model for patriotic education. The provincial leaders even paid a visit to the patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan and brought him a silk banner with the words, "Love the Motherland, Stabilize the Borders."
Just as the patriarch of the Flat Blade Clan left, more guests arrived. This time, there were more guests. There were twenty people on ten 250cc motorcycles, with two people on each motorcycle. There were also many chickens, ducks, and fish. This was the provincial military's investigation team. They knew that Xiuming Village was too remote. If they didn't bring their own food, the local people would directly butcher them. Every time they came, they would be so polite that their comrades in the army were put in a passive position. Therefore, every time they came, their comrades in the army would buy a large amount of food in advance. Everyone was polite and respectful to each other.
The leader of the army was the deputy chief of staff of the military division. His surname was Pu, and he was a local. He was a lieutenant colonel. Because he had been here a few times, he was very familiar with Zheng Bolong and Zheng Jian 'er. He knew that there was a Zheng Jianyi in the village who was already a colonel.
As soon as they sat down, Zheng Jian 'er came in with Zheng Jianyi, Chen Weizheng, and Ou Jie. Zheng Jian' er introduced his brother to the deputy chief of staff. The deputy chief of staff hurriedly saluted. Zheng Jianyi didn't wear a uniform, so he could only nod in return. He took the initiative to shake hands and greet them. At the same time, he introduced Chen Weizheng and Ou Jie to the deputy chief of staff. The deputy chief of staff of the General Technical Department, Qingshan Town Military Experimental Zone, Senior Colonel Chen Weizheng, and the director of the High Energy Technology Base, Qingshan Town Military Experimental Zone, Colonel Ou Jie. Zheng Jianyi's introduction not only surprised the deputy chief of staff, it also shocked Zheng Jian 'er and Wu Guangxian.
After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Weizheng asked if they had brought a satellite phone. The deputy chief of staff said yes and asked the messenger to bring the satellite phone over. Chen Weizheng turned on the phone. The first call he made was to Liu Yi. He told Liu Yi about the situation and told her not to worry. The second call he made was to the commander of the Longshan Battery Plant Guard Battalion. He told him to inform the First Company to be fully armed and ready for battle. They were to prepare to come to Jiuming Village as soon as possible to fight a local war.
The deputy chief of staff completely understood the truth of the matter from Chen Weizheng's phone call. More than two thousand lives were wiped out in ten minutes. He was shocked. Currently, the public had three views on this matter. The first was that there was a conflict between the Changdao Gang soldiers and the border residents. The second was that there was a conflict between the Changdao Gang soldiers and the refugees. The third was that the Changdao Gang soldiers and the refugees were massacred by the border residents. The third view was the least accepted, but it was the truth. The deputy chief of staff was deeply surprised. After thinking about it again, with Chen Weizheng, Ou Jie and Zheng Jianyi, these three great gods, it was not an accident that this kind of situation happened. On second thought, if the Changdao Gang soldiers rushed in and caused any mishaps to happen to the three great gods, the military division would be more responsible. In comparison, it was more worth it to lose those two thousand people.
The deputy chief of staff asked for the opinions of the three on how to report to his superiors. Chen Weizheng's words made the deputy chief of staff heave a sigh of relief. He took the call and reported the entire situation to the military division leader. When the provincial military division's commander, Senior Colonel Yang Youmin, heard this, he immediately jumped up and reported to the Southwest Military Division. The Southwest Military Division's commander, General Zuo Zhixiang, told the military division's commander to ensure the safety of Chen Weizheng and the others at all costs. If Chen Weizheng was in trouble, the Mountain Division of the Southern Military Division would rush over overnight. A while ago, the Mountain Division of the Southern Military Division had overturned the entire Southwest Military Division. With that kind of equipment and attack power, it would take at most a week to destroy the Wa Kingdom. Even if the Mountain Division did not come to cause trouble, the Military Division would not let him go, especially the protective General Guo. When he was angry, even ghosts would be afraid of him. Commander Yang quickly gathered all the motorcycles that could be gathered. He first pulled in a fully armed battalion before coming out to gather ammunition.
Not long after, the Southwest Military Division's transport helicopter flew over Xiuming Village and landed at the grain-sunning field in the village. Their purpose was to pick up Chen Weizheng, Ou Jie, and Zheng Jianyi. After being rejected by the three, Chen Weizheng told the transport team that the Longshan Battery Plant's guard battalion was rushing over from the Red River. When they arrived, please arrange for a parachute landing.
Soon, Chen Weizheng realized that he had miscalculated. General Guo made a phone call to Xiao Guangyuan and told him that the Longshan Battery Plant's guard battalion was not to be moved. He then made a phone call to the military helicopter and asked Chen Weizheng to answer the call. He ordered the three of them to leave Xiuming Village and enter the area protected by the provincial military division. Otherwise, they would be punished for violating military law. Chen Weizheng haggled for a long time and received permission to stay in the ancient town of the Chen Clan. Helplessly, the eight of them could only leave. Before leaving, he told Wu Guangxian and Zheng Jian'er that they must not let the comrades in the army see the four Longshan 2015 and six-barreled machine guns. If they saw them, they would definitely confiscate them. Wu Guangxian and Zheng Jianyi understood and immediately asked people to keep them. They would not use them unless absolutely necessary. After all, they had confiscated more than three hundred guns. After organizing them, it was more than enough to equip the hundred or so soldiers in the village. Zheng Jian'er was also careful. He kept all the good guns and asked the soldiers to only hold broken guns. Each gun was equipped with ten bullets and was to be handed in after the incident.
Sitting in the military helicopter, Chen Weizheng and the rest returned to the ancient town of the Chen Clan. Chen Weizheng told Zheng Jianyi that the helicopter was indeed very convenient, but it was too noisy. If it could be driven by batteries, it would probably be better.
