Chapter 146 Eye

"Women are single-minded and hard to talk!" Yao Xi sighed.

Guo Erjiao also sighed, "This is even more troublesome. If we fight with the rich man, they will say that we Zhangjun bully women!"

Zhou Charter asked, "How can this Meri Creek have contact with the Japanese?"

"I don't know that." Mengnon shook his head.

Zhou Charter pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it absolutely not allowed for outsiders to pass by during the millet offering sacrifice?"

"It's not true." Meng Nong said, "The rich man is the leader of the Zou clan. They hold millet sacrifices, and the surrounding tribes will come to pay tribute. Sometimes, the Han people of Pingfu also come to congratulate him. The rich people in Ka are treated with courtesy, but one thing, they can't carry weapons. One is to show sincerity, and the other is to avoid god's displeasure."

Zhou Charter nodded: "In this case, I will go to congratulate you. Yao Xi, you prepared a thousand silver dollars, which is a congratulatory gift. Yao Xi responded at the foot of the mountain, and Guo Erjian and Meng Neng went with me. When we go up the mountain, let's act according to the opportunity. If possible, persuade that plum and let us go.

Yao Xi said, "Brother, you can't carry a gun. It's too dangerous!"

Guo Erbar scolded, "With me, Guo Erbar, I promise not to lose a hair!"

"You have three heads and six arms!" Yao Xi shouted, "Those barbarians are unreasonable. If you really want to attack the eldest brother, you are useless!"

Zhou Charter waved his hand and said, "That's it! Meng Nong, go back to tell them, and say that Zhang Jun will not disturb the millet offering, and wait at the foot of Yushan until their millet offering is finished, and then pass by the mountain. We are guests from afar. It is also fate to meet such a grand millet sacrifice ceremony of the Zou people. Zhou Charter, the commander of Zhangjun, is willing to bring gifts to congratulate him. One is to show respect for God, and the other is to make friends with the great chief! The chief is a sensible person, and many friends have many ways!"

Meng Neng nodded, got up for the cliff, and shouted again.

This time, Dance did not raise his gun. She turned around and said a few words to the female soldier behind her, and the man beside her muttered at Mengnon at the foot of the mountain.

Meng Neng turned around and said, "Chief, they asked us to wait. They went to ask the chief."

Zhou Charter nodded: "It seems that there is a chance, Yao Xi, hurry up and prepare silver for me!"

Yao Xi answered and turned away. After a while, he handed over a thousand silver dollars to Guo Er.

On the cliff, Dancai rushed to the bottom of the mountain and shouted in Chinese: "The chief welcomes guests from afar to Yushan. Please climb the mountain immediately and remove the weapons on your body to avoid being unhappy.

"So this woman can speak Chinese!" Guo Er pole said.

"The Zou people have a close relationship with the Pinghu people, and most of them can speak Chinese." Meng Neng said.

Zhou Charter untied his armed belt and handed over the sword and gun to Yao Xi. Guo Erpao also took off his handgun. Yao Xi waved his hand in a hurry: "Guo Erba, you'd better hide the pistol on your body. In case those rich people do it, you can protect our big brother."

Zhou Charter waved his hand: "If you want to hand it over, hand it over to the end. The rich man really wants to do it, and a pistol doesn't work. On the contrary, it will make them question our integrity! The millet sacrifice is an annual event for the Zou people, and it is ominous to kill people! I guess that if the words are discord, they will at most drive us down the mountain and won't kill us. They are afraid that blood will hit the gods.

Mengnon also said, "Actually, the rich man keeps his promise. As long as he says it, he will never change his mind."

"I hope so!" Yao Xi said.

Zhou Charter said, "Yao Xi, you led the special forces and retreated two miles to camp to show our sincerity. At the same time, you sent someone to contact Yan Qionglin and let him lead an independent brigade to build a defense line in the Huangling area north of Yushan to protect our side to prevent the Japanese attack. We are not familiar with the Alishan area. Remember But it's careless."

"Yes!"

......

Zhou Charter took Guo Erbang and Mengnon to the mouth of the Hulu. The Kana rich man on the cliff is still with knives and guns in his hand, without any relaxation, but the muzzle is upward and not aimed at Zhou Charter and his entourage.

Guo Erzhuan was very unhappy: "We are all disarmed. They are still so fierce. They really don't treat us as friends!"

Zhou Charter laughed and said, "No wonder that Kana's rich people are all mountain people with weak strength. In the face of our well-equipped team, they don't understand our details and should also be wary. Think about it in another way. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to be careless. Then Merry Creek has asked us to go up the mountain, which is already very generous. I admire this female chief, who is very manly.

The three walked along the path inside the mouth of the gourd. The gourd mouth is really dangerous. Only one person is wide and narrow on the path sandwiched between the stone walls, and three people can only move forward. If there is a heavy machine gun on it, it is enough to block the gourd mouth tightly. Even if there are thousands of troops and horses, they can't rush over.

The three walked more than 100 meters, and a stone step appeared in front of them. The three climbed the stone steps. The road in front of them was opened up. It was a five-meter-wide stone path. The two teams of rich men with their chests and bare chests stood on both sides of the stone path with machetes. Dancai stood at the end of the stone path with his hands on his back. Behind them stood a row of rifles with rifles. Female soldier.

Zhou Charter held his fists at Dancai opposite and said, "Zhang Junjun's commander Zhou Charter, took the liberty to visit the chief. It's not polite. Please forgive Dancai's warriors."

Dan Cai was expressionless: "Zhou Jun, please!"

Zhou Charter stepped forward, and the strong men on both sides shouted in one voice, raised the machetes, and 20 machetes crossed left and right to form a knife array, and the cold light flashed, blocking Zhou Charter's way.

Guo Er stood forward, but was pulled by Zhou Charter: "follow me!"

Zhou Charter smiled and held his head high to the knife array. Wherever he passed, the cross machetes retreated one after another. Some machetes also provocatively scratched Zhou Charter's scalp, but Zhou Charter did not care.

After a while, the three walked through the knife array and came to Dan Cai.

Dan Cailiu raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly: "Zhou Junchang really lives up to his reputation."

"Where? Just now, we thought we were hiding well in the jungle under the mouth of the gourd. Now it seems that if it hadn't been for the mercy of Dancai Warriors, the three of us would have been your gun!" When Zhou Charter came up, he had already observed the terrain and looked down from the cliff. Just now, their hidden jungle was just in the shooting field of the rifle. Although it was far away and there was jungle cover, it was difficult for ordinary people, even well-trained soldiers to hit the target, but with Dancai's shooting method, they would not go empty. Of!

Dan Cai raised his eyebrows, revealing a trace of color. Dancai's shooting is good, but most people don't know what her shooting is good. They only know that she is accurate. Zhou Charter's words are what the connomer said, taking into account many factors such as shooting wild, distance, obstacles, etc. Therefore, Zhou Charter's praise made Dan Cai very happy, but he did not dare to show it too much due to his feelings.

"Shirty commander Zhou, please!" Dan Cai made a gesture of invitation and strode in front of him.

The female soldiers behind her gathered around Zhou Charter and surrounded the three people in the center as an escort. These female soldiers wore blue shirts and black skirts, tied their legs, carried rifles on their shoulders, and put their hands on their swords around their waists. They were all heroic and imposing. It's just that these female soldiers wore bucket hats on their heads, and the front was lowered to cover half of their faces. They could only see the part below their noses.

Zhou Charter can't help but be secretly surprised. Although I haven't seen the big chief Meri Creek, who is known as a plum, it can be seen from these female soldiers that Meri Creek is by no means an idle person. These female soldiers advance and retreat moderately and walk neatly. As the saying goes, there are no weak soldiers under the strong generals!

The group walked along the mountain road. Zhou Charter looked at the scenery and terrain on both sides, but saw some short walls built with stones in the mountains and forests on the roadside, stacked, one in the east and one in the west, and there was no contact with each other.

Zhou Charter couldn't help but exclaim: "The Great Chief Merry Creek is really powerful!"

"How can I see it?" Guo Er pole asked.

"Look, these short walls seem to have no rules, but in fact they are very mysterious. Each broken wall is built in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, the fronts of the short walls complement each other and can form a shooting front with almost no dead corners! And the front of the shooting has artificially removed all obstacles, including trees and rocks, which is an open land!"

After Zhou Charter said this, Guo Er pole suddenly realized: "I said, this is a fortification! If someone launches an attack from the mouth of the gourd, even if it breaks through the mouth of the gourd and rushes here, it will be completely exposed in front of the short wall. The defenders can lie behind the broken wall and besiege on all sides. The attacking side has no place to hide, only waiting to be shot!"

"Meri Creek is an apnomer!" Zhou Charter said, "This arrangement can repel most of the offenders, but it is not impeccable. If you encounter a shrewd attacker, I'm afraid there will be a big problem!"

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Charter looked back and asked not Guo Er pole or Meng Neng, but a female soldier who followed him. Like other female soldiers, the female soldier wore a blue shirt and black skirt, wore a hat and a rifle on her back. She was slightly taller than the female soldier, plump, and her breasts were much higher than other female soldiers.

The female soldier's bamboo hat was very low, revealing only a small mouth, a sharp chin, and a beauty mole at the corner of her mouth.

Zhou Charter asked, "Do you know war defense?"

The female soldier did not reply. She shook the handle of the knife around her waist and asked, "Chief Zhou, I'm just a guard of the Great Chief. I don't understand war defense, but if you want to say that there is something wrong with the Great Chief's fortifications, I would like to ask for advice."

The female soldier's words were neither arrogant nor humble, and she looked very steady.

Zhou Charter laughed and said, "This Meri Creek is really extraordinary. The soldiers are so modest and easy to learn. Well, let me talk about my personal opinion. These short walls are like Zhuge Liang's gossip array, which are staggered and respond to each other. When the enemy attacks any point, the defenders can launch a siege from behind the side of the attacker, so that the enemy cannot take care of each other. I guess Merry Creek should have been inspired by the formation of the era of cold weapons in ancient times to create such a fortification. However, as far as I know, the ancient array had eyes, and the array seemed to be impeccable, but once the array was broken, the whole array collapsed immediately! This fortification in front of us has a burst of eyes.
