Chapter 493: Night Raid Flying to New Bahru
Not long ago, Malay and Singapore were in a battle, and Mai Ke inserted a pole, not only swallowing the new Canadian soldiers who were pursuing the victory, but also coercing the Malay soldiers who crossed the border to loot the wealth of the defeated soldiers of Singapore, and they still don't know where to go.
Later, the news of Singapore's defeat came out, and it was also indirectly known that those Malay soldiers went to the Lion City together, robbed all the colonial barracks, and everyone made a fortune.
Tan Rong Feng, the commander of the Johor Bahru garrison, also found Da Niu and the elephant soldiers who stayed behind to inquire about the news.
Originally, there were not many people looking at the big bull, so he wanted to use force to suppress him, but as soon as he saw the reaction of the big bull, he obviously said to you without saying anything, welcome to fight, and he must accompany him to the end, so he retreated first.
Don't mess with these fierce people, see that they have no trouble dealing with the Singaporeans, but we are the defeated soldiers of the Singaporeans, two levels behind!
Today there was finally news that two Malay soldiers who had gone to Singapore had returned, but instead of returning to the barracks, they had gone home directly; it was understandable to go home, and they would come back to report after a few days of rest, but they heard that they were going to move away with their families.
This is obviously a war profit, and I want to avoid the war and live a good life!
Tanjung Feng immediately sent people to arrest these two deserters, not only did all the property confiscate, but the family members did not let one go!
Looking at the wealth seized, although according to the conventions of the Malay soldiers, those who handled it were at least 50% greedy, and the half taken was the best, and the rest still surprised Tanjung Feng, these colonial soldiers were really rich.
He was not angry enough to take it for himself. And keep your eyes open to the maximum, and keep an eye on the treasures that have returned, no, soldiers.
Tonight, he didn't go to the sky and drink as usual, and a heart that was not quiet seemed to be expecting and heralding that something was to come.
Suddenly, a staff officer on duty ran in and said in an excited tone: "Commander, great joy! Company Commander Raj has returned with his brothers! Each of them brought a large bag of gold, silver, and jewelry, saying that he was going to hand them over to the ...... Commander!"
The staff officer's tone was excited. It's a bit of a bad thing! The returning company commander Raj first stuffed him with a large bag of treasures, he had never seen so much in his life, how could he not be happy, how could he not speak for him!
Of course, Commander Dan knew who this Raj was. Look at him on the road like this. I made up my mind not only to give him half of the treasure. And develop him into a confidant!
Without any hesitation, Commander Dan shouted, "Let them in!"
After a while, the company commander Raj came in with four soldiers. Everyone was holding a large package, which seemed to have some weight.
Raj took a few steps forward, saluted Commander Dan, and gave him the package.
This Commander Dan seemed to be relatively straightforward, without any reserve, so he took it directly, he couldn't wait, and he opened it at that time.
These things are ten times more precious than the soldier in front of them!
When the commander inspected the jewels, almost all the senior and mid-level officers were doing the same thing, that is, those who had fallen asleep were woken up from their dreams, and they all smiled one by one and examined the treasures!
They were so happy that each of them got at least two packs, both of which were rare and rare treasures!
It's a pity that such a good thing and good mood were interrupted, and the staff officer came to the commander again like a wolf howling: "Report and report...... Tell the commander, the enemy fights and fights...... It's up!"
"What kind of mess, I can't even speak clearly......" Commander Gan, who was interrupted, was furious and scolded the hapless staff officer.
"I know what's going on!" Commander Raj suddenly interjected, and suddenly shouted: "Do it!"
Then three men stepped forward and captured Commander Gan in one fell swoop, and the combat staff officer was also taken down by the other two.
At the same time, the people who gave gifts to the officers also took action, and without exception, all the recipients were captured.
It turned out that these gift-givers were all Malay soldiers of the teaching company, and they worked out this strategy with Mai Ke, and all 125 people went out to capture all the officers above the middle level.
When the officers were arrested, the arrestees were all their own people, and the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level all fell into the fog, thinking that there was internal strife.
Therefore, they are also based on their own experience, holding their heads to save their lives, no matter who wins or loses, but who wins and who will do it later.
However, this time it seemed different, these captured officers were all gathered together, and these soldiers were immediately called one by one for questioning, asking whether they accepted the change of the expeditionary force or not.
At first, a few people thought that this was a choice that was completely based on their own wishes, but they immediately saw that it was probably not what they thought; those soldiers who chose not to do so were immediately escorted away by several soldiers, and they were banned by the one who was in charge, and they immediately became mentally exhausted.
It turned out that this was a temporary measure for Mai Ke, and the fighting was still going on, and he was not willing to let these hostile soldiers go back to the mountains and continue to fight the expeditionary force.
As a result, there were very few who later said they were unwilling, except for particularly stubborn guys.
As for those officers, Mai Ke hated them from the bottom of his heart, so he was in no mood to win them into obedience, and he was really worried that these corrupt guys would spoil a pot of soup.
The unfortunate ones who had lost the jewels were also rescued, and there was no danger to their lives except that they suffered more than meat.
After this experience, the two of them had a big understanding, and without saying a word, they immediately asked to participate in the one-to-twenty-five group.
Mai Ke did not refuse, but he did not accept the one hundred and twenty-five, but gave him a one-year test period, and then decided whether he was qualified or not.
Although this kind of person who hits the south wall and turns back is better than the one who still does not look back, there is still a big gap from the original one hundred and twenty-five.
Subsequently, those soldiers who were willing to surrender to the expeditionary force were reorganized, the cadres below the platoon commander level were re-identified, the company commander was directly selected from the teaching company, and the military pastor was transferred from other units.
Raj served as the brigade commander and concurrently served as the commander of the 1st Regiment, and another former platoon commander served as the deputy brigade commander and concurrently served as the commander of the 2nd Regiment.
Then the troops were divided into two, the first regiment under the leadership of Raj and Mai Ke on their backs, and the second regiment under the leadership of the deputy brigade commander stayed in Johor Bahru to stabilize order.
Having withstood the temptation of wealth, he made great achievements in the first battle, and immediately became important, becoming a force for the expeditionary force, and contributing to the kingdom of heaven with others.
The army rested for a while, each of them ate a fruit plate, drank a bottle of water from the River of Life, and immediately set off for the next target, Malacca City, the capital of Malacca Province. (To be continued......)
