Chapter 1236 Bicycle

"Has the headcount been taken?"

Jin Feng stood on the observation deck, looked at the returning bodyguards and chamber of commerce guys, turned around and asked.

"We have counted," Zhang Liang sighed: "A total of 767 bodyguards and 1,730 chamber of commerce guys were arrested in Dangxiang. This time, a total of 577 brothers came back.

One hundred and seventy-two chamber of commerce guys."

Zhang Liang didn't say anything about those who didn't come back, but Jin Feng knew that they all died in Dangxiang.

Although Li Lingxuan did not directly order the killing of the bodyguards and chamber of commerce men in order to threaten Jin Feng, he did not treat them as guests. They would have to endure cold and hunger.

The winter in Dangxiang was so cold that nearly 200 of the able-bodied bodyguards froze to death and starved to death, and even the chamber of commerce clerks froze to death and starved to death of five to six hundred people.

Many of those who came back only had half their lives left, and they didn't know how long it would take to recover.

There is also a possibility that he may never recover.

Previously, Da Zhuang proposed to kill a group of Zuolang Guards in order to avenge the death of the bodyguards and chamber of commerce men in Dangxiang, but Jin Feng rejected it.

At that time, the bodyguards and assistants were still under the control of the party members. They could kill Zuolangwei prisoners, and the party members could also kill the bodyguards and assistants.

In Jin Feng's eyes, the lives of the bodyguards and chamber of commerce clerks were much more important than Zuo Langwei's. At that time, he just wanted to save the still alive bodyguards and clerks as soon as possible.

However, Jin Feng was never one to retaliate with kindness, so he asked people to record the two tribes of Dangxiang who were guarding the bodyguards in Baiqiu Mountain.

Zhang Liang and Da Zhuang understood at that time that Jin Feng was planning to take revenge on these two tribes in the future.

"They didn't seize it privately, did they?" Jin Feng asked again.

"No," Zhang Liang shook his head: "The brothers who went to pick him up have already confirmed it with the arrested brothers on the way. The brothers who are still alive have been released. Li Lingrui is true to his word."

"In his eyes, those powerful men are more important than ordinary bodyguards and chamber of commerce guys."

Jin Feng said: "Maybe Li Lingrui thinks that he has an advantage now and can capture more of our prisoners in the future."

"He is dreaming!" Zhang Liang said: "If we were not in Dangxiang territory before, there was really no possibility of breaking out, and the brothers would definitely fight to the end!"

"It was my lack of thinking that caused my brothers to fall into the tiger's den!"

Jin Feng sighed: "Calculate the list of those brothers and chamber of commerce associates who have not returned, and provide compensation according to those who died in the war. Those who were disabled due to being captured must also be dealt with properly. Those who should be compensated should be compensated, and those who should be arranged for work.

arrange work!"

"Yes," Zhang Liang nodded, and then asked: "Sir, the brothers who came back heard that you are here and want to see you. Do you want to go?"

"I'm not going, let them go have a hot meal first and warm themselves up before we talk." Jin Feng shook his head.

This was also the reason why he didn't go to the gate.

After being imprisoned by the party members for so many days, most of the escorts and escorts were in a very miserable state, and many of them suffered from severe frostbite.

What they need most at this time is to fill their stomachs and be warm, not to meet Jin Feng.

So Jin Feng did not go to the gate to wait for them, but watched from the observation deck from a distance.

After all the bodyguards and men entered the camp, Jin Feng picked up the telescope and looked north.

The left wolf guard and the horsemen of the transport team had already entered the Dangxiang camp. From the looks of things, the Dangxiang camp was the same as before, and nothing unusual could be seen.

But both Jin Feng and Zhang Liang knew that this calmness was superficial.

Both sides had hostages before, but now that their hostages have been exchanged, both sides have no scruples and can let go!

Just like the current Shu Army camp, it looks the same as usual on the surface, but privately, several tents are busy with business.

"Have the mines been arranged?"

Jin Feng put away the telescope and asked as he walked under the observation tower.

"The burial was completed a few nights ago. As long as you give the order, sir, the operation can begin immediately!" Zhang Liang replied.

"Have Monkey and Chen Fengzhi cleaned up the area?" Jin Feng asked again.

"Don't worry, sir. After the logistics team delivered the things, Monkey and the others withdrew. In the past few days, they have checked the surrounding area bit by bit to ensure that no party scouts can get in!"

"Then let's take action tonight!" Jin Feng raised his head and said, "If we delay it any longer, there will be too many variables."

"Yes!" Zhang Liang's eyes immediately burst out with excitement.

Jin Feng made this plan two days before he arrived, but the bodyguards and chamber of commerce guys who were arrested at that time were still in the hands of the party members, so the plan was never implemented.

Zhang Liang has been waiting for this day for too long!

That night, the Shu Army camp was still quiet on the surface, but there were people coming and going in the middle of the camp.

Rows of carriages were parked in the open space.

The wounded and some large supplies that could not be dismantled were carried onto the carriage by the bodyguards.

After the carriage was loaded, the people from the logistics group walked towards a row of tents on the south side of the open space.

The escorts who were busy around them all turned their heads to look over.

Ten days ago, the logistics team delivered a batch of large wooden boxes, which were placed in this row of tents after delivery.

Then Zhang Liang sent people to put the row of tents under tight security.

Not only Li Lingrui was curious about what was in those wooden boxes, but many escorts were also curious.

Now it's finally time to reveal the answer.

Under everyone's gaze, the people from the logistics team opened the tent's curtain.

I saw rows of strange-looking cars parked in the tent.

"What is this?" Most of the escorts were confused.

"I know, this thing is called a bicycle. When I was in the village, I saw Mr. Liu and Mr. Wan riding it!"

An escort from Xihewan said.

"Yes, I have seen it too. At that time, Mr. Liu was riding this car and racing with Da Zhuang!" Another escort said: "I was still wondering at the time. This thing only has two wheels and can't stand upright.

How can it be possible to run so fast!"



Yes, those big boxes shipped by the logistics team are full of bicycle parts.

Technicians sent by Mancang hid in tents for nearly ten days before finally assembling the bicycles.

In fact, Jin Feng made a bicycle when he was in Beijing, but he had not yet taken out the bearings at that time. The finished bicycle was very heavy and could not be ridden far.

A few months ago, the machine tool technology in the iron smelting workshop made a breakthrough, and it was finally possible to mass-produce bearings.

Before that, Dakang's cars always put an iron ring on the wheels and axles to reduce the wear of the axles and wheels. When the iron rings were worn out, they would be replaced.

In fact, the car is still very heavy, and the hoops wear out quickly.

Although the bearings made in the iron smelting workshop are the most basic ball bearings, compared with traditional collars, their service life and carrying capacity have been greatly improved.
