Chapter 25: Offering Treasures
Breaking a cable, Fu Erchong's confidence increased. He used only three bullets to hit the second cable, saving two bullets compared to the first one. The two cables were broken one after the other, and the drawbridge collapsed with a bang, and the soldiers rushed up with cheers!
Although the devils inside the wall were also trying to block the attack, they were suppressed by the fire from the turret, and they couldn't use all their strength. In the end, our large army rushed across the suspension bridge and entered the walls of the turret in Zhuxian Town!
The battle that followed was a one-sided finale. With the support of the puppet army company, although the devils hiding in the small courtyard made the last stubborn resistance, they were finally outnumbered and ended up annihilated. When Ren Laifeng picked up the blood-stained command knife from Sato's corpse, it also meant that the battle of Zhuxian Town's turret ended in the victory of our army.
For the Zhuxian Town Turret, Ren Laifeng does not plan to occupy it for a long time. It was useless for him to occupy a turret, and it would only attract the attention of the Japanese invaders. The turret is down, and the contents can be removed and retreated.
The useful good things in the turret Huang Tian have been neatly organized. After loading the car, before leaving, Ren Laifeng asked the troops to inform the people nearby: The bricks and tiles, tables, chairs, doors and windows of the Zhuxian Town Turret that can be taken, carried, and dismantled are all taken down by him and taken back to his homes!
Everything works. The brick doors and windows can be used to repair their own houses, and the tables, chairs and benches can be used directly when they are moved back. As soon as the people heard that the turret belonged to them, they immediately became enthusiastic. Carrying hoes, guillotines, shovels, and poles from home, he ran to the turret and was busy.
"Fellow villagers, this afternoon and evening, you can dismantle as much as you can, take as much as you can, and take everything you can back to your home. Don't come after dawn tomorrow, the devil may come at some point. Folks, don't put yourself in it because of a little profit. Here we go! ”
Ren Laifeng arched his hand, saluted again, and left Zhuxian Town with the troops.
On the way back, the troops made another trip to Qinglonggang, and the Qinglonggang guerrillas also had a lot of things to take with them.
Feng Wenying's team is nominally a guerrilla, but she has never lost her previous business. Although she flaunted the banner of an anti-Japanese guerrilla, her guerrilla force had no subordinates from her superiors, and no one paid her military salaries and provisions. She won't do anything else, what will she eat if she doesn't do her old job? What to feed these dozens of people?
Heist isn't about going to the mall to buy something, it's not about having what you want. Of course, it's good to grab something that can be used and easy to get rid of, and sometimes when you encounter something that is not easy to get rid of, but it is valuable, you have to save it first, and then exchange it for money when you have the opportunity in the future. Therefore, Qinglonggang is not big, but there are a lot of good things hidden in a cave on the gang that is used as a warehouse.
What silk, porcelain, gold and silver luxuries. If this thing could be exchanged for money, it would be a lot of money! Feng Wenying was about to move before she could find a buyer, and the flow of these things became a problem.
Food and supplies can be taken away, what about these luxuries? Throw it away, it's a pity. Don't throw it on? What's the use of bringing these things with you? After Feng Wenying took Ren Laifeng into the warehouse to visit, he directly threw this problem to Ren Laifeng.
"Brother Feng, my people are all yours, and of course these things are also yours. What to do with it is up to you. ”
When she said these words, Feng Wenying did not avoid people. This female guerrilla leader with a bold personality said casually, but the battalion commander was by no means easy to listen to! What does it mean that your people are mine? We obviously have a good relationship, right?
I wanted to open my mouth to explain two sentences, and then I saw that the people around me were busy with personal affairs, some visited the layout of the warehouse, some took the account book to learn advanced experience, some bent over to tie their shoes, and some ran out in a panic to do other things. In short, there were so many people at the scene, and no one paid attention to the two of them. Since no one is looking at them, what else is there to explain?
Reached out and touched the smooth and shiny silk, then picked up a blue and white porcelain basin and looked at it, knocked twice, listened to the melodious echo, and let the wind raise his eyebrows, "Pull it away!" Pull all of this stuff away! "As long as the things are good, are you afraid that you won't be able to find someone who knows the goods? If there is no buyer now, can you still not find it?
The headquarters of the Third Group Army and the general headquarters of the Henan-Anhui guerrilla zone were set up in Longhai Garden in Zhengzhou, and the Flying Tiger Battalion, which was directly under the group army, set up its battalion headquarters in West Shilipu, which was more than ten miles northwest of Longhai Garden. After Ren Laifeng led the troops to pull things back to the barracks in Xishilipu, he picked a few fine items from the luxury goods and sent them to the commander-in-chief Sun Tongxuan.
"This is the blue and white porcelain vase of the Ming Dynasty, which is the Tang Sancai in the Tongzhi period. And this one, this is a snuff box with gold and jade. Ren Laifeng showed Commander-in-Chief Sun the treasure he had offered.
"Xiao Ren, you, which museum are you robbing? Or which nobleman's grave was dug up? Looking at the few treasures in front of him, Ren is Sun Tongxuan couldn't help but open her mouth wide when she saw a lot of knowledge.
"How so?" Ren Laifeng looked at Sun Tongxuan with an innocent face, "Mr. Sun, I am the most disciplined in military regulations, and I have never done anything illegal." Didn't I take the Flying Tiger Battalion to fight the turret in Zhuxian Town this time, these treasures were all found from the turret, and they were snatched by devils in our China! I will take it back, and it will be returned to its rightful owner. ”
"You've always had a point." Sun Tongxuan was amused by Ren Laifeng's sophistry. Picked up the blue and white porcelain vase of the Ming Dynasty, carefully looked at the fine patterns on the bottle, stroked the smooth and delicate bottle and nodded with satisfaction, "It's really a good baby." By the way, Xiao Ren, tomorrow Tongxuan Middle School will hold a ceremony, and the safety work will be handed over to your Flying Tiger Battalion. ”
Ren Laifeng hurriedly nodded in agreement, and after coming out, he wondered in his heart, why did Commander-in-Chief Sun still want the Flying Tiger Battalion to be in charge of security at the opening ceremony of a middle school? What kind of secondary school is this? What kind of ceremony is it held?
This is not a confidential matter in the first place, and you can find out the reason as soon as you ask a relevant person. It turned out that because the Japanese invaders had reached the north bank of the Yellow River, it could be said that they were only separated by a river from Zhengzhou on the south bank. Merchants in Zhengzhou have moved westward, and citizens have left the city in large numbers to return to their hometowns. Two of the city's only four secondary schools have also moved to other places.
Since Zhengzhou is a major transportation route between the occupied area and the rear area, there are a large number of exiled young people and children of the army in the city, and only two middle schools obviously cannot meet the enrollment requirements of all young people. In response to this situation, Sun Tongxuan took out his personal savings and decided to establish a middle school, the name of the school is Tongxuan Middle School, and General Sun Tongxuan is the chairman.
Tomorrow's ceremony is the groundbreaking ceremony of Tongxuan Middle School.
