     When in the summer of 1944 the Japanese advanced to take the districts of T'ai-shan and San-shui, the county of K'ai-p'ing was menaced. The Chinese army had retreated, but the two tsu of Szu-t'u and Kuan organized themselves to fight for their homes.

     In addition to the language difference between the two major ethnic groups, there are differences among the Cantonese themselves. For example, people in four counties to the southwest of Canton—in T'ai-shan, K'ai-p'ing, Hsin-hui, and En-p'ing counties—speak a version of Cantonese which is almost unintelligible to residents of Canton.

     Confucius did not listen to this warning, but taking his disciple Yen Hui to drive the carriage and putting Tzu-kung on his right, he set off to visit the brigand Chih. The brigand and his men happened at the time to be resting on the southern slopes of the T'ai-shan, and were enjoying a supper of minced human liver.

     It seems that Chao left Chihli sometime between 1762 and 1764. At any rate, in 1764 he passed by T'ai-shan, Shantung, and was suffering from an illness. He certainly did not live long after 1764 and possibly he died in that year.
