Chapter 137: Mixed Blessings
Xiao Zhenbei and Zhang Guangzu were also mixed at this time.
The good news is that since the last battle severely damaged the Japanese army and wounded Kato, it has caused a huge repercussion in the area of Huangqi Town, the Eighth Route Army has played with morale and prestige, and many enthusiastic young people from the surrounding villages have enthusiastically signed up to join the army, and at the same time, the guerrillas and women's relief associations in various villages have also been reorganized, and the number of them is more than before! Everyone has seen that it is useless to blindly compromise everything, and the devils and traitors will only become more ferocious, and only by taking up arms and working hard with the devils can they protect their families and defend the country and have hope for life! So in a short period of time, Xiao Zhenbei's team has expanded to more than 500 people.
What worries us is that these recruits and the newly formed guerrilla units have little experience in actual combat and need a long time of training and training. However, the bullets are not very sufficient, and the recruits should shoot a few rounds of live ammunition in general, and it is impossible to just aim at them! In particular, those recruits are looking forward to firing a few rounds of ammunition every day! However, in addition to the ammunition that must be reserved for the next battle, there are too few of the remaining ammunition that can be taken out for live shooting, and Xiao Zhenbei and Zhang Guangzu are also very troubled by this matter.
"Lao Zhang, do you want to take out 5,000 rounds of ammunition for the soldiers to train?" Xiao Zhenbei asked.
"No! In addition to the guerrillas, we have already taken out 20,000 rounds of ammunition, which is not a small amount, and now there are only 50,000 rounds of ammunition left in the troops, and in case of a major battle, this ammunition may not be enough!" Zhang Guangzu said with great embarrassment.
"Alas, last time, Lu Decheng's main regiment shouldn't have been allowed to take away so many weapons and ammunition!" Xiao Zhenbei said with some annoyance.
"Hehe! Okay, last time Lu Decheng's troops lost so much, they shouldn't be compensated at all!" Zhang Guangzu said with a smile, Lao Xiao is always very greedy in this regard.
"You said that we got rid of He Mingli, and the superiors didn't give us any benefits, so we just came to praise him? That's too picky! By the way, speaking of He Mingli, how about that Du Mengyun? What does the superior mean? Do you want to arrest him back?" Xiao Zhenbei asked.
"Expelled from the party, purged from ......the revolutionary ranks," Zhang Guangzu said.
"Is this over?, there are no other instructions?" Xiao Zhenbei asked in surprise.
"What else do you want? This time he killed Huang Sen and He Mingli, it was designed by He Mingli, and he had put forward conditions! Besides, Du Mengyun didn't know much, and it didn't cause any serious consequences, not to mention that He Mingli repeatedly emphasized that Du Mengyun planned this ambush, and he just wanted to protect Du Mengyun! That ...... Du Mengyun has also suffered a lot, and this result can be regarded as okay!" Zhang Guangzu said.
"Then you still let Chu Ying stay with Zhuang Quan to take care of her?" Xiao Zhenbei said dissatisfiedly.
"I'm thinking about whether to transfer Comrade Chu Ying back, she has appeared too many times in Fangtong Town, and many of those spies in plainclothes know her, so it's no longer suitable to stay in Fangtong Town! Also, I want to find out how many men and horses this Zhuang boss has in his hands? Last time, the scouts you sent to follow them came back and reported that they saw a team of two or three hundred people, if that's the case, then this Zhuang boss is terrible!" Zhang Guangzu said with a sigh.
"What the hell do you mean?" asked Xiao Zhenbei.
"I'm thinking that if we want to develop Fangtong Town's armed forces behind enemy lines, we need the support and help of Zhuang Quan and Sheng Jiu, these two people can now cover the sky with one hand in Fangtong Town!" Zhang Guangzu said with a very hot eye.
"Well, that's a good idea, hey, can you get some bullets through them first?" Xiao Zhenbei's idea was more affordable.
"Reach out and ask for it, we don't have the money to buy it!" Zhang Guangzu said depressedly.
"Aren't they bandits?
"It's someone else's to rob it!"
"Didn't we get the news? There is a batch of munitions going through the area of Fangtong Town! Let's exchange the news! It really doesn't work, I'll take another company to ambush together!" Xiao Zhenbei said excitedly.
"Then it will really burn the flames of war to Fangtong Town, Sheng Jiu and Zhuang Quan may not be willing to do so! That is likely to lead to annihilation!" Zhang Guangzu said worriedly.
"Well, think about it and see if there's a way to get the best of both worlds!"
"I'll think about it again!"
……
After Li Dashan returned to Fangtong Town, he had been hiding for several days, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice that returning to a place he was familiar with was the most correct choice, although he was still hiding in Tibet, but he was too familiar with Fang Tongzhen, and he knew everything about which room was full of people and which room was empty! Li Dashan has grown a beard now, and he has found a pair of glasses to wear, but it is not easy to be recognized, and the people of Fangtong Town really don't care much about that notice, Li Dashan killed Jin Daya, everyone knows it, so many people still have a good impression of Li Dashan, and they will eliminate harm for the people!
Life is a little more settled, Li Dashan a little wants to have a pastime, he not only has gold bars in his hand, but also the ocean, there is no shortage of money! But the gambling game is not daring to go, there are too many people who know him, he heard that Qi Xiangyuan has come to a lot of newcomers recently, so he can't sit still, and he went around outside Qi Xiangyuan for an afternoon, planning to mix in at night, but this afternoon, he not only saw Sheng Jiu with people in and out, but also saw several plainclothes teams also come to Qi Xiangyuan from time to time for recreation, which made Li Dashan dare not go in. The plainclothes team and Sheng Jiu are desperately looking for him, what about the reward of 5,000 oceans! Besides, that Sheng Jiu, ten Li Dashan together are not anyone's opponents!
The more Li Dashan thought about it, the more depressed he became, and he couldn't understand who was planting him for it, and Huang Sen's death had nothing to do with him! He was now beginning to suspect that Zhuang Quan and Sheng Jiu were ghosts, Sheng Jiu wanted to kill Huang Sen, which he could speculate, and Zhuang Quan wanted to find a scapegoat, after all, half of those arms were still in Zhuang Quan's, and the more Li Dashan thought about it, the more he felt that there was such a possibility.
He hated it now! He originally wanted to do a big job, but he didn't expect to fall into the current situation, and he didn't even have a place to spend his money, so he had to figure out this matter, if it was really what he thought, Li Dashan gritted his teeth, and planned to go to the county seat to find the devil to report. It's better to be a traitor than to be a wanted criminal like now!
Li Dashan suddenly thought of a person-Sun Ergou. He not only did things for Zhuang Quan (Zhuang Quan was able to find Li Dashan was instructed by Sun Ergou), but also got Sheng Jiu's care, after Sheng Jiu replaced Jin Daya, he gave Sun Ergou a lot of money, and Li Dashan suddenly saw a turn for the better!
……
Sun Ergou's recent days can be said to be peaceful and stable, with some money in his hands, he is still helping Zhuang Quan take care of the house, and he can make some money every month, even if it is a recent big search, when the Imperial Association Army passed by his house, it was also so-so and passed, nothing happened. The happiest thing is that Sun Ergou's wife is still happy, it has been three or four months, Sun Ergou no longer eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and the two of them are quite satisfied, although they are missing two ears, Sun Ergou has long hair, and he can't see it very much, and now the people around him are gone, but there are gradually more people who greet him, and the small life is very good!
Unexpectedly, someone suddenly knocked on the door at night, Sun Ergou didn't think much about it, Jin Daya died, and no one came to look for trouble, not to mention that Sheng Jiu took care of him, so Sun Ergou didn't have any precautions, just thought that the neighbor came to borrow a coal and ask for a small thing like garlic......
As soon as the door was opened, Sun Ergou was hit by a box cannon, Li Dashan entered the door, plugged the door with his backhand, and then motioned for Sun Ergou to enter the house. As soon as he entered the house, he startled Sun Ergou's wife, both of them knew Li Dashan, who was also a celebrity in the town, and Sun Ergou was even a little grateful to Li Dashan for killing Jin Daya.
Li ...... Big brother, what are you doing here?" Sun Ergou asked with some puzzlement.
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not happy to see me? My head is worth five thousand oceans!" Li Dashan sat down and said with a big grin.
"Hey, how can it, it's too late for the two of us to thank you, if you hadn't killed Jin Daya, neither of us would dare to go out now!" Sun Ergou hurriedly said, and said it very sincerely, even his wife nodded again and again.
"Hmph, even if you still have a conscience! Let me ask you, has the surname Zhuang been here recently? Has Captain Sheng been here?" Li Dashan finally found some sense of accomplishment from Sun Ergou's words. Yes, these two people should be grateful to me, without me, they would still be turtle bastards!
"Oh, you mean Brother Zhuang, I haven't been here for a long time, Captain Sheng, that's a big man, how can you have time to come to us!" Sun Ergou said with some relaxation.
"Oh, go, make me something to eat, take out any delicious food at home, do you have any wine?" Li Dashan was a little disappointed when he saw that Sun Ergou didn't look like he was lying, but Sun Ergou's attitude was still very satisfied.
"Okay, Chunxiu, you go and cook a few good dishes for Brother Li, I want to accompany Brother Li for a few drinks, great benefactor!" Sun Ergou said happily, he really treated Li Dashan as a benefactor.
A very sumptuous dinner was placed in front of Li Dashan, Li Dashan had not eaten such a sumptuous meal for several days, not only did he eat a full meal, but also drank a bottle of wine, and the wine was also a good wine that Sun Ergou's wife specially went to the town to buy.
But wine can be fun, but also chaotic, Li Dashan drank most of the bottle of wine, coupled with Sun Ergou's frequent compliments on the side, Li Dashan was a little carried away, originally failed to do so in Qi Xiangyuan, now the evil fire in his heart is more vigorous, looking at Sun Ergou's wife, Li Dashan began to move, this is not a ready-made woman! Sun Ergou's wife is now a little plump because of her happiness, which makes Li Dashan a little unbearable.
