"Master Pan, Rick asks you to go up the mountain." Gabriel said to Pan Han after receiving the order.
"Okay! Please lead the way!"
So Pan Han, Qin Zhong and Monk Wei followed Gabriel into the mountains.
The mountain is so steep and the road up is winding. There is even no road in many places, only traces of human footsteps.
"Everyone, please follow me closely. There are traps set in some places. If you fall into one, it will be bad!" Gabriel reminded everyone.
"Is there only one way up the mountain?" Qin Zhong suddenly asked as he looked at the surrounding situation.
Gabriel was a little hesitant when he heard this, because this information involved the safety of the mountaintop village.
Monk Wei saw what he was thinking, so he tugged at the corner of his clothes and made an OK gesture.
Gabriel thought for a moment and decided to trust Monk Wei.
"As you can see, this mountain is extremely steep. Only this side is slightly easier to walk on. The other three sides are all cliffs." Gabriel didn't say it explicitly, but everyone knew what he meant.
"Your place is really easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are only a few hundred people guarding here. Without tens of thousands of troops outside, no one can break in." Pan Han said with a smile.
"Your Excellency is joking! We don't want to expand outward, we just want to live our own lives." Gabriel swung his knife and chopped down a few branches.
"Don't be nervous, we are not here to cause trouble, we just want to discuss cooperation." Pan Han saw that Gabriel was too vigilant, so he explained.
"Your Excellency has led the Dawn Squad to such rapid development and has even annihilated the Iron Group Gang. We believe in your strength and sincerity. The monk praised you so much that day."
"Haha, this monk! Sorry to have made everyone laugh."
After walking about 2 kilometers along the mountain road, they gradually saw the gate of the village on the top of the mountain.
The mountaintop village is located on the only flat land in the mountains. It looks neat and tidy, as if it had been trimmed by a giant with a big shovel.
The village covers an area of about ten thousand square meters and is built with walls and houses.
From a distance, a figure could be seen moving around the sentry post above the gate. Gabriel pulled out his intercom and spoke to the sentry.
When the other party heard this, he quickly reported it to Rick and Maggie.
"Please wait a moment, sir. Rick will come out to greet you personally." After receiving the notification, Gabriel turned to Pan Han and said.
"You're so polite!" Pan Han said politely and gave Gabriel a cigarette.
When Gabriel saw that it was a cigarette, his eyes widened. He hadn't seen this thing for many years!
Pan Han saw his expression and knew that he was interested. So without saying anything, he stuffed the whole bag into Gabriel's hands.
The other party quickly refused, saying that Pan Han was unwilling to take back what he had given away. The two of them exchanged responsibilities several times.
Upon seeing this, Monk Wei took it down and stuffed it into Gabriel's pocket.
"Lao Jia, take it. In our base, Boss Pan invites everyone to smoke whenever he has nothing to do."
Good job!
I knew you, Lord Pan, were rich, but I didn’t expect you to be this rich!
Gabriel did not refuse anymore and accepted Pan Han's kindness.
At this time, the gate of the mountaintop village opened and a man and a woman walked out.
The man was about 1.80 meters tall, thin, with a stern face and a resolute gaze. He wore a beret and had a revolver slung at his waist. The woman beside him was slightly shorter, with a larger frame, dressed in jeans and a dagger at her waist.
Needless to say, this is Rick and Maggie.
What a pity, the image is different from that in the TV series, Pan Han thought to himself.
"Mr. Pan! I've long heard of your great name. It's an honor for us to have you here today!" Rick came up to greet him enthusiastically.
Pan Han nodded and smiled, then went up to shake hands with Rick.
After everyone got to know each other, they headed straight to the meeting hall of the mountaintop village.
It is called a hall, but it is actually a small wooden house built specifically for meetings.
The facilities inside are simple, with only the most ordinary sofas and tables made of logs.
After everyone was seated, Rick got straight to the point: "Master Pan, Monk Wei has already made your intentions clear. First of all, we are very grateful for your gift of supplies. However, moving us from the Hilltop Village to the Dawn Base may not be possible for the time being."
"Oh? Lord Rick, can you tell me the reason?"
Pan Han was not surprised to hear his reply.
"We have been here for several years and are quite accustomed to the life here. There are also many children under the age of 10 and elderly people. If we migrate on a large scale, we cannot guarantee their safety." Rick said slowly.
"Well, what Lord Rick said makes a lot of sense, which shows that you are a qualified leader." Pan Han agreed with Rick's opinion.
After all, if it were him, it would be impossible for him to move his entire family to the Dawn Base right away.
"However, since Lord Pan has sent the canned food and visited us in person, we are not ignorant of the ways of the world. If Dawn Base encounters anyone who needs help in the future, we can lend a hand." Rick said this in a very calm tone.
It was obvious that they had done some internal research and calculations. They couldn't offend Dawn Base, offend Monk Wei, or owe too many favors to him.
After hearing this, Pan Han did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the monk, Qin Zhong, and then at Ma Ji.
Qin Zhong knew what Pan Han meant, so he asked, "Lord Rui Ke, you said you can attack once. How much force can you mobilize?"
"We have limited guns and ammunition here, and the population is only about 500. So, we can dispatch 80 people at a time." Rick replied.
"How is your combat effectiveness now?" Qin Zhong asked.
