The sun has just revealed half of its face, and the morning glow in the sky has already illuminated most of the sky red as always.
Like a victorious rooster, Ma Liang followed Hong Sanxi into the village with excitement.
People everywhere in the village climbed over the walls of their houses. From time to time, someone failed to move properly and fell off the wall, causing ridicule.
Ma Liang turned around from outside the courtyard wall and immediately saw Tang Dagou, his mouth clenched in dismay.
The big dog's eyes lit up, and he immediately came over, took out a cigarette and handed it over: "What the hell are my brothers?"
Ma Liang stopped and pulled the whole pack of cigarettes from the big dog's hand: "They're all here. You got up so early today... The sun doesn't seem to come out from the west, right?"
Tang Dagou curled his lips and smiled mischievously: "This is called advancement... Do you know? Hey... when did you arrive?"
It is completely different from the time when one person had enough to eat and the whole family was not hungry, and he only knew how to eat alone.
"We arrived before dawn. Now we are catching up on sleep in the villages to the west. Your platoon has replenished some new recruits. There are also number 50 and 60 now. There are half-immortals watching in the west of the village. You can get to know them by yourself later."
"Where are the weapons and equipment?" Big Dog was so happy that he even stopped talking.
"Every company is similar, everyone has a gun."
"Each company? What do you mean?"
"You'll find out later."
"Then the Ninth Company has been promoted to battalion? It's been rumored for a long time... It's time for promotion." The big dog's eyes widened. He had been in the army for many years and was not stupid at all.
"Look at your bad character! You guessed it right..."
"It doesn't matter whether I get promoted or not... This platoon leader is just a decoration..." Big Dog curled his lips.
"Okay, I have to report to Captain Yang of the work team. I'm leaving first..." After Ma Liang finished speaking, he motioned to Hong Sanxi next to him to continue walking.
Captain Yang got up early and asked each soldier carefully about their daily life and training situation.
He has the most things to do, and he has to summarize and analyze the intelligence received from various team members.
Just as he sat down in the room, a soldier with a scar on his face entered the room: "Report, Ma Liang, commander of the first company of the 9th Battalion, is here to report!"
Captain Yang got the news from Hong Sanxi before dawn. It was the first time he met Ma Liang and he said smoothly: "Captain Ma, thank you for your hard work."
Suddenly I felt something was wrong:: Ma Liang? Aren't you the platoon leader?
Ma Liang said expressionlessly: "The Ninth Company has just been promoted to battalion. I am appointed as the commander of the First Company."
Captain Yang was stunned for a moment: "Then Company Commander Hu... was promoted to battalion commander?"
"yes!"
Captain Yang nodded: "Let's go and see Company Commander Hu first. He has been promoted this time and has to treat me to a drink."
Hu Yigang had just finished reading a document sent by the work team. He looked up and saw Captain Yang and Ma Liang behind him. He asked casually: "Where are Wang Peng and Tian Sanqi?"
"They will be here soon..." After Ma Liang finished speaking, he took out an envelope from his pocket: "This is the establishment instructions and appointment letter for our Ninth Company Promotion Battalion!"
...
Wang Taigong was able to recruit such a large group of people, so he certainly had some real abilities.
Firstly, he is a righteous person in Shili Township, and secondly, he knows how to maneuver according to the wind.
First, he defected to the Nationalist Army to fight against the Eighth Route Army. After the Nationalist Army ran away, he immediately hugged the Japanese's thighs and turned their guns to attack the Eighth Route Army.
More than twenty bandit guilds who had recently taken refuge gathered together.
How had there ever been a chance to openly engage in activities in the county town before? This time, I was actually sitting in the county government hall discussing matters, and everyone looked around.
Wang Taigong, the security commander in his fifties, sat at the top and looked at his subordinates with satisfaction.
He deliberately coughed, raised his hand to suppress it, and waited until the whispering among the leaders stopped before finally speaking: "Brothers, we got the news that the Huangshahui was taken over by the Eighth Route Army last night. The Eighth Route Army's activities are becoming more and more rampant. Please ask all of you this time. Brother, I came here to discuss a countermeasure with everyone."
After Wang Taigong finished speaking, he winked at his son Wang Sanzhu next to him.
Wang Sanzhu's triangle eyes turned red and he stood up: "Tubal Road was beaten to a pulp by the imperial army, but they broke into our territory two days ago. First, they attacked more than a hundred of my brothers the night before yesterday, and last night they attacked Huangshahui. Brother Cheng from Huangshahui was brutally murdered for this reason..."
The bandits and sect leaders were shocked when they heard the news, and immediately started talking among themselves.
Wang Sanzhu was very satisfied with the performance of the bandits, and immediately changed his face to a ferocious one: "The Eighth Route Army dared to openly enter our territory to commit crimes, and even thought of pretending to be the Black Tiger Army. It was clear that they wanted to sow discord. Their conspiracy has already been If we find out, let’s all talk about it, can we bear this tone?”
The bandit leaders immediately became excited and echoed: "Pay with blood, kill them..."
"Those who dare to seize our territory will have grass growing on their graves. We will kill them..."
"Revenge for the Cheng Jin brothers..."
Not many bandits can see the situation clearly. A middle-aged man frowned: "I think the Eighth Route Army has always been on the same page with us, so it would be better to send someone to ask for details first."
Another bandit leader immediately objected: "Humph, the bully is here, what else do you have to ask? I will dig as many holes for him as he comes!"
The middle-aged man shook his head: "We only have a few people and guns at hand. The Eighth Route Army is now powerful, so I think it's better for everyone to benefit."
Wang Sanzhu was a little dissatisfied with the middle-aged man's words: "You are so powerful! The Eighth Route Army was driven to pieces by the imperial army. Do you think we are all weak persimmons? Besides, we have received reliable information that they only have one or two hundred people coming now..." .”
A certain bandit immediately shouted: "Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier? One or two hundred and eighty...then Commander Wang, just kill him, why don't you call us here?"
All the bandits, as well as the leaders of the guild, Tao, and clan, are not fools.
The reason for taking refuge with Wang Taigong and his son is simply because Wang Taigong and his son have many men and guns. If they don't take refuge, they will be destroyed by him. Who would be willing to do so?
When the Eighth Route Army fights for their lives, who would really let his brothers become cannon fodder for Wang Taigong? To gain a foothold on this land, someone must have a gun. If all the money is lost, all the benefits will be in vain.
Now that Commander Wang has made it clear that every family is going to have people and guns, who will do it if there is no benefit?
The various bandit leaders present here have different relationships with Wang Taigong, and their thoughts in their hearts are even different.
Finally, someone raised the question: "Although there are only one or two hundred people coming from the Eighth Route Army, everyone knows that there are thousands of people on the Eighth Route Army nearby!"
"It's just that the equipment of the Eighth Route Army is poor. There is no difference between us and them. We all have swords and spears. I don't think there is any need to go head-to-head with the Eighth Route Army. Besides, Brigadier Tang of the Security Army, who was so awesome last year, died at the hands of the Eighth Route Army."
The battalion commander of the security army sitting next to him had been silent and looked down on these rabble. However, the regiment leader made an explanation before coming and said with a dark face: "Everyone might as well think about it, how strong is the Balu La team? How dare he act like this today?" If two hundred people come, two thousand may come tomorrow. If we don't unite, sooner or later this land will be occupied by all eight groups, and by then the brothers may not even have a place to sleep."
The nearly twenty heroes present were whispering to each other, and they all felt that what this person said... made sense!
It is the habit of bandits to act on the wind: "Since Commander Wang wants to fight, how can we fight with the big swords of our brothers?"
This was clearly meant to be beneficial. Although Wang Taigong was a little annoyed, he still put on a smile: "According to the number of people dispatched, three people will be issued a spear with thirty bullets, and the money will be calculated based on the head, which is ten yuan per person!"
In addition, if you kill the Eighth Route Army, I won’t take a single bullet from you. It will all belong to the brothers. Let’s see who has the ability! "
With the benefit, the heroes immediately became interested: "Although there are not many people in the Eighth Route Army, they like to sleep during the day and move at night. If we don't surround them all, we can't find them at all! Commander Wang has thought carefully, even if he kills chickens Zai'er, we have to use a knife to beat Tuba so hard that they will never dare to think about our land again."
Another one echoed: "Can't two or three thousand of us not be able to defeat Tubal Road?"
"That's right, this land is the foundation for all of us to eat. We must work together to kill these gangs in one fell swoop!"
Wang Taigong nodded with a dark face: "Okay, the guns and ammunition have been prepared. Let's take people and dogs to get them now. After noon, the team will set off. The troops will be divided into three groups and arrive at the place where the Eighth Route Army haunted before dark. "
