After the puppet army swept away, they directly followed the Japanese army all the way south.
Immediately afterwards, various bandits and Huidaomen gangs followed the puppet army and made trouble. Since ancient times, soldiers and bandits have committed robbery and extortion, and the people are in dire straits. Many hungry people who were already short of food starved to death, and those who had a little money fled to famine and became homeless.
Outside Neihuang County.
It was getting dark soon.
A few bundles of broken firewood were placed on the roof of an empty house in the village. Two figures were shielded by the firewood and looked at a large group of people in the square in the south of the village.
Various noises were heard from time to time in the crowd, and a man wielding a sword was giving a demonstration to others.
Several people nearby were carrying rifles and watching the fun.
The people in the village didn't seem to be afraid of the men carrying swords, and they just served them tea, water and cakes.
After a round of sword skills, the man put away his sword and clasped his fists, and took a deep breath: "Our Kuai Dao Association is responsible for protecting the villagers. Commander Wang said that unknown bandits have appeared recently, trying to destroy the hard-won peace. , everyone will gather here tomorrow, and together with Commander Wang, we will catch all the bandits who undermine stability and unity! Everyone shouted to me: kill the bandits...keep peace..."
"Kill the bandits...keep peace..."
"Kill the bandits... keep safe!"
When everyone was extremely excited, the leading man spoke again: "My family's ancestral road knife skills are passed down from male to female, and from son to son. In these troubled times, I will teach it to everyone. Everyone must learn and practice well. , keep our eight villages in ten miles safe!"
Kuaishan was a little confused and asked the armed staff member next to him in a low voice: "Isn't the person named Wang a bandit? Why do they call killing bandits..."
"The man surnamed Wang first joined the National Army and became the commander of the advancing detachment in northern Henan. Now he has joined the Japanese and is known as the Security Commander. He echoes Wang Ziquan of An County from east to west. He has always been ruthless against the Japanese people. What a miscalculation yesterday, he actually asked Wang San to wish that bastard Ran..."
"What's the origin of this sharp knife?"
"Old Chiang Kai-shek ran away. The bandits kidnapped and extorted all kinds of evil. The landlords in each village paid and provided guns to organize young people to defend their homes and the country. After the Japanese came, they did not dare to challenge the Japanese. Some defected to the Japanese, and some were recruited by us. Most of the people who participate in the Kuaishou Association are local young adults. They are not bad in nature. We have done their work before. Firstly, they think we are too weak. Secondly, they are unwilling to leave their hometown. Thirdly... they don't want to do it at all. Believe us, so they belong to the category we want to unite with, and this time we are going to beat up Wang Sanzhu and his son to let them know that our Eighth Route Army is also capable."
"Hey, please keep your voice down."
Then why did they get together with Wang Sanzhu and the others again?
Didn't I tell you just now that that bastard Wang Sanzhu originally fought against Japan under the banner of the national army, but was beaten to a pulp by a squadron of Japanese soldiers? Many of the Huidaomen who followed him were armed and had no idea which side Wang Sanzhu was now. If Wang Sanzhu said that he was a member of the Eighth Route Army, and these Taoist people would also follow him and say that they were a member of the Eighth Route Army!
So complicated?
"Hey, don't underestimate Wang Sanzhu. This guy is very bad. He has recruited more than fifty Huidao sects with weapons! What about the Zhongxiao Group, the Yellow Sand Society, the Red Spear Society, the Quick Sword Society, the Central Road, the Wuji Road, the Red Sand Society, etc. ***, Xiantian Dao, Houtian Dao, Houtianhui, Wanxianhui, Shenglianhui, Charityhui, Kuaihui, Liulihui, Huangshahui, Baijihui, Dadaohui, Sunzhenhui, ***. ..With the addition of doors like this and that, there will be no less than fifty teams!”
Kuai Legs had a black line on his head: "There are so many, I'm glad you can remember them... To put it nicely, Wang Sanzhu and his son's subordinates can do this and that to make everyone unite! To put it bluntly, they are just a mob? Isn't this the truth?"
"So we not only need to fight hardcore traitors, but also recruit those who don't do evil. Do you understand?"
Kuai Legs was a little discouraged: "With so many houses, how can you tell the good from the bad?"
"Hehe, we are all keeping accounts for him."
Kuaishan's eyes lit up: "Let me tell you... there are so few people in your work team, how can you figure out whether they are doing good things or bad things?"
"Although the Japanese and puppet troops often raid our base areas, we turn light into darkness. We only have work teams on the surface, and countless ordinary people serve as our eyes secretly. Even half of these guilds are under our control. People, therefore, when you attack those who are armed with Taoism skills, and those who surrender on their own initiative, you must not shoot indiscriminately..."
...
Captain Yang belongs to the military division. The work team is completely different from the establishment. Although there are only more than 20 people, the level is there, battalion level.
Logically speaking, Hu Yigao's position is that of company commander, which is one level lower than Captain Yang.
But Captain Yang did not give any instructions on all the actions of the reinforcements led by Hu Yi and Gao Yida. On the contrary, everything was based on Hu Yi and Gao Yida. As for Hu Yi's title of Staff Officer, he also figured out the reason.
At noon, the three of them were sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village, basking in the sun. There was a map on the ground, branches planted on the ground next to them, and clods of soil.
The few soldiers from the Ninth Company did not start digging trenches, nor did the soldiers from the Second Company. However, a few people from the First Company were ordered by Tang Dagou to climb over the walls of the houses in the village, making a lot of noise.
The soldiers of the Second Company leaned against the wall and quietly watched the energetic guys from the Ninth Company and the First Company practicing tactics on the fly.
Most of the members of the work team dispersed to inquire about the news. From time to time, people riding bicycles and wearing black clothes came and went.
Xiao Hongying and Luo Fugui rushed into a courtyard silently, startling Deputy Captain Geng who had just returned and lay down to sleep: "Hey, Platoon Leader Luo? Hongying... you guys have something to do?" ?”
Xiao Hongying asked with wide eyes: "Captain Geng, how many people from our Ninth Company are here this time?"
Captain Geng was stunned for a moment. This is a secret. After all, the team will arrive tonight, but there is nothing to hide from the Ninth Company. He thought for a while: "The supplementary regiment will be led by Battalion Commander Wang Peng, plus the soldiers of your Ninth Company." ...A total of one battalion came.”
"Wang Peng... is in the same camp?" The girl was stunned for a moment: "Why did he get involved again?"
When Captain Geng heard what the girl said, it seemed that Wang Peng must be familiar with Jiulian: "I don't know about that."
"Okay then, you go to bed first." After saying that, he turned around and walked away with Luo Fugui.
Vice Captain Geng has a black line on his head, these two gods are nagging...
"Can't you just ask Boss Hu if you have something? What can a vice-captain know?" Luo Fugui rolled his eyes.
"Okay, let's go to the entrance of the village."
"You go ahead and I'll go back to sleep." Luo Fugui quit.
"Can't you make more progress? If Da Ya..."
"Okay, okay, let's go."
"If you two don't take this time to improve your combat skills with Tang Dagou, why are you here to join in the fun?" Looking at the arrogant look on the little pigtail, Gao Yidao couldn't help but sneered.
"Oh? Haha, you made a good sand table. I need to take a look at this." The girl was not angry at all. She walked next to Hu Yi and looked at the sand table carefully.
Captain Yang didn't think this girl could understand... Shatan at all, and asked with interest: "Girl, can you understand?"
The girl rolled her eyes: "I don't understand."
Captain Yang was stunned for a moment: "Then what are you looking at?"
The girl said angrily: "I can do it too."
Captain Yang turned his head and looked at Hu Yi with a black line, meaning: Does this girl really understand?
Hu Yi nodded and said nothing.
Can a half-grown girl understand the sand table? Captain Yang became interested: "Hey, I see you don't even have a gun, how about I give you one..."
Gao Yidao next to him had a black line on his head and couldn't help laughing: "Captain Yang, are you going to give her a gun?"
"What, can't you? I think she's not too young anymore. She should be able to learn how to use a gun."
Gao Yidao suppressed his laughter, his stomach hurt, and he tried to keep a straight face: "You know there was a team last year that defeated Hua County without any blood. Who led the team?"
"Aren't you the leader and the political commissar?"
"Ha..." Gao Yidao finally couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. The air flow was so fast that he choked and coughed and raised his hand to point at the girl who was looking at the sand table.
Captain Yang saw that Gao Yidao, who was originally calm, was making fools of himself, but he still didn't know why: "Even if your independent regiment captured the county town, you don't have to laugh like this, right?"
After saying that, he unscrewed the kettle beside him and handed it over.
Gao Yidao laughed while coughing: "Hahaha...your division...ahem...don't you have an armored vehicle?"
"I know about this. The division has one. Your independent group couldn't do anything about it, so it lent it to our division..."
"That armored vehicle...she gave it to you in exchange..."
The guy surnamed Gao is crazy... Captain Yang curled his lips: "Hey girl, how can you salute when you see me?"
Xiao Hongying gave Gao Yida a white look, turned her head, and asked sincerely: "Hey, Captain Yang, I still don't know your name?"
