"Everyone wants to live, right? You eat meat and we drink soup. Don't do anything too great! You said I should send a letter to my brother and ask him to trouble you every day. Wouldn't the tax be heavier?
?I actually think about you."
Gao An continued to talk about his reasoning and even brought his brother Gao Ming out. In fact, they had asked Gao Ming before if they could afford to offend the gang. As a result, Gao Ming thought that Zhang Xiluan would never let Zhang Zuolin do what he did.
He will definitely take action to suppress this little warlord, so he just wants to let the Gao family calm down for a while.
As a result, such a vague statement misunderstood the Gao family, and they thought they could take a chance, which is why this incident happened.
Zhang Tinglan looked at Gao An, who was full of truth and looked like he wanted to be beaten, with a sneer on his lips: "Who are you, and are you worthy of being friends with us? Who gave you the power to set up checkpoints here and forcefully collect taxes?
Is there any legal requirement?”
"Boss, you are too young. Do you have to stipulate everything? Our Gao family has two to three hundred guns. Everyone in this country knows about it. If you want to invade our territory, you must show it."
"Then let me tell you, I now have thousands of guns, and there are tens of thousands of guns of the 27th Division behind me. Since you want to rely on the barrel of a gun, I will destroy you now."
Zhang Tinglan waved his hand, and the soldiers on both sides raised their rifles, pointed them at Gao An and his party, and shouted: "Put down your weapons, surrender your guns and do not kill!"
Gao An didn't expect that the other party would take action as soon as he said it. He still looked unconvinced: "Boss, since ancient times, the two armies have been fighting. If you don't kill the envoy, you are too mean to do this!"
Not only Zhang Tinglan, but even Sun Anhu didn't bother to look at him. He really thought of himself as a person. The soldiers didn't even take them seriously. They immediately rushed forward and arrested all these dozen people.
, tied into a bunch and guarded.
Then several soldiers with loud voices were sent to the front of Huzhuang River, shouting loudly, asking everyone inside to surrender and wait for investigation.
The Gao family has been running rampant for many years, and has never encountered such a situation. In the past, bandits tried to plunder the Gao family. As a result, five to six hundred people besieged the birch bark factory. As a result, they all suffered severe injuries and lost their troops. Due to heavy losses, this gang
Although the bandit escaped with his life, he was annexed by other beards. From then on, no one dared to mess with the Gao family.
It is this glorious history that has developed the arrogant habit of the Gao family. When the opponent wants to disarm them, all the Gao family's thugs take action and seal the door tightly. The tall wall is covered with thugs, and they all take weapons.
There were various guns facing the outside, and there were two turrets at the two corners of the village wall. A Maxim heavy machine gun was placed in each turret, with the black muzzles pointing outward.
Sun Anhu followed Zhang Zuoxiang a lot in the past, so he had a deep understanding of these big families. They were very willing to spend money on their own homes. Their manor was basically a miniature city. Therefore, you can despise them, but the real ones are to take action.
You must be careful at all times, find loopholes and break through in one fell swoop, otherwise it will be easy even if you hit your head and cause bloodshed.
Sun Anhu immediately sent more than 20 soldiers to spread out and launch a feint attack. When these soldiers were about to approach the Huzhuang River, gunshots suddenly rang out from the wall of the village, and the heavy machine guns at both corners shot out fierce tongues of flame, followed by strong winds and rain.
Generally speaking, the angle chosen by these two machine guns is very good, just enough to form a cross fire, covering the entire open space in front of Zhuangzi.
When the attacking soldiers saw the fierce firepower of the opponent, they withdrew one after another without causing any damage. However, Sun Anhu frowned. The Gao family's defense was indeed not weak. It would take some effort to break through.
"Young Master, you all stay at the rear for the time being. I will lead people over first to take out the machine guns at the two corners."
After saying that, Sun Anhu and his men rushed over. Zhang Tinglan also knew that leading troops to fight is a skill that needs to be learned carefully. He could not help for the time being, so he watched from the rear honestly. Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Tingshu were also the first
Seeing this kind of real sword and gun scene for the first time, the two people's eyes widened, looking eager to try.
Most of the equipment of the Armed Police Corps are brand-new water rifles obtained by Zhang Tinglan. The equipment level is not inferior to other troops of the 27th Division. In addition, they also brought two Hatches machine guns this time.
Sun Anhu commanded the machine gunners to suppress the firepower on the village wall, and then dispatched dozens of experienced veterans to launch a frontal attack on the village wall. For a while, the two sides exchanged fire fiercely across the Huzhuang River. These veterans brought by Zhang Tinglan were all experienced veterans.
Bearded men were very experienced. They tried their best to avoid the threat of machine guns, and then took advantage of the range and accuracy of the water rifles in their hands to continuously kill the thugs on the village wall.
In just a few minutes, more than a dozen thugs were lifted off the Tianling Cap, and the red brains were sprinkled all over the village walls. This time, the Gao family finally felt fear. The opponent was far more powerful than imagined, and could fight in the dark.
Shooting the gun so accurately, these are all sharpshooters!
Just when they were panicking, a worse situation occurred. The machine guns at both corners suddenly lost their sound. This was also Sun Anhu's arrangement. He selected a few soldiers with the best marksmanship to quietly approach the gun tower from both sides, and then looked for
Opportunity to kill the machine gunner.
This method really worked. Without the suppression of machine guns, the Gao family's thugs suddenly lost all their courage. The soldiers took the opportunity to cross the Huzhuang River, and a large number of thugs were killed under precise rifle fire. Then the gate was blown up with cannons.
When it was opened, a hole was opened in the originally strong birch bark plant.
This attack was very smooth. Of course, it does not mean how powerful the armed police force is. It is just that there is an essential gap between the regular army and these landlords' armed forces. Dealing with them is completely overkill. After the soldiers rushed in, the town soon fell.
Under control, only the Gao family compound has not yet been captured.
The Gao family and the remaining thugs all retreated to the Gao family compound, preparing to fight tooth and nail. However, they were also trembling with fear and had no confidence at all. There were even many women holding their children and crying uncontrollably. They knew that the village walls were full of people.
Without defense, there would be no hope here, and the entire Gao family compound seemed to be in doom. Sure enough, Sun Anhu soon commanded the soldiers to surround the Gao family compound.
Zhang Tinglan took Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Tingshu into Zhuangzi. Just when he was about to launch an attack, the door of the Gao family suddenly opened, and an old man in his sixties or seventies walked out with his head held high. The old man was 1.8 meters tall and ten meters tall.
He is tall and burly, with a rosy face, and he is also very well-maintained.
He came outside and shouted: "Don't shoot. I am the head of the Gao family. I want to see your leader. The old man has never done anything illegal. I want to ask why you beat me."
, the person who killed me?”
The old man spoke with a loud and powerful voice. For a moment, the soldiers didn't know what to do. Zhang Tinglan waved his hand and asked Sun Anhu to bring him over. Mr. Gao faced the black muzzle of the gun without any fear.
Not afraid, he took tiger steps and arrived in front of Zhang Tinglan and Sun Anhu aggressively.
When he saw that Zhang Tinglan was not very old, he curled his lips and said, "You are just a stupid kid. A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. How dare you attack my Zhuangzi? You must come up with an explanation."
"Old guy, don't play your tricks in front of me. This is not a place where you can rely on your old man to show off your old skills. Isn't it a crime for you to set up card charges and seize grain trucks? You have hundreds of thugs, and everyone has a gun. Isn't it a crime?
Is it a crime?"
"Young man, there are card tolls everywhere in Fengtian. Otherwise, what are we pointing at to survive? As for guns, if we didn't have them, we would have been eaten by others. Can this be considered a crime?"
"Old guy, I can only tell you that the world has changed. In the past, the government was incompetent and allowed you to run lawless and bully good people on the ground. From now on, the rules have changed. No one except the government can even think of setting up a trap.
When collecting taxes, no one can even think about owning guns. Those who farm the land honestly, those who do business do business legally, and it will no longer work to rely on extortion to get something for nothing!"
After Zhang Tinglan finished speaking, the soldiers on both sides rushed up and tied up the old man Gao. The old man was still very arrogant and unconvinced at all. He yelled: "Little bastard, this old man eats more salt than you eat rice."
, if you dare to be rude to me, aren't you afraid that all the squires in the world will oppose you? You can change the rules that have been in place for decades or hundreds of years. You really don't know how high the sky is!"
Zhang Tinglan had no time to deal with this old guy anymore, so he had someone take care of him. After Mrs. Gao was arrested, everyone in the Gao family lost their spiritual support and surrendered. The entire birch bark factory fell under Zhang Tinglan's control.
During the battle, he immediately ordered the battlefield to be cleaned and all guns gathered.
Then they conducted a thorough search of the Gao family's courtyard. They rescued all the impounded grain trucks in the Gao family's backyard. Although the truck drivers were a little frightened, they were not injured. They were lucky. Zhang Tinglan immediately promised
They were given ten times their wages, and everyone was grateful.
The Gao family has been doing local evil for many years and has a very rich family fortune. Moreover, the Gao family is different from big shots like Shengyun. Shengyun and the others will deposit a large amount of money in foreign banks. The Gao family obviously does not have this awareness and they hide all their money.
After some searching at home, I found more than 500,000 yuan.
"Young Master, we checked carefully and found that a lot of the money was embezzled by Gao Ming and was then transported to his home to hide. The other two Maxim heavy machine guns are also used by the Fengtian Army. They must have been obtained by Gao Ming!"
"Well, these two charges are enough for us to take down Gao Ming. Now we will keep the property and Gao's family together to fight in heaven."
Sun Anhu directed the soldiers to load the loot. All the soldiers were smiling. Zhang Tinglan was always generous. With so many things seized this time, they would definitely all get a share, so everyone worked very hard.
While loading the truck, suddenly a carriage came outside the village, and it was Qiao Ruixuan who jumped out of the carriage.
As soon as he saw Zhang Tinglan, Qiao Ruixuan said breathlessly: "Master Zhang, Gao Ming sent people to arrest Brother Liu and a dozen businessmen!"
