Hu Biao, who sent away the defenders of Goose City who followed and continued to move forward, knew very well that the appearance of his team would inevitably arouse the vigilance of the surrounding garrisons. As for the Gui system, it is inevitable that they will also pay more attention and even take precautions in private.

But for Hu Biao, Shillong is just a temporary base. Although Hu Biao had a vision of building some factories in Shillong, and even building an airfield where planes could take off and land. But in the end, sooner or later, his forces will withdraw from Shillong.

The time for the withdrawal may be before the Japanese army announces its unconditional surrender. It's just that as far as the current situation is concerned, most of the southwestern lands that are not under the jurisdiction of the Republic of China belong to the colonies of Britain and France, just like Annan at this moment.

If the factory is placed in another country's colony, Hu Biao will definitely not be at ease. On the other hand, on the side of Shillong, although it will still arouse suspicion and even greed, Hu Biao has the ability to keep his foundation and make others dare not offend easily.

In addition, Shillong is located in the border area of the three southwestern provinces, so it has sufficient strategic depth. Even if the Japanese army wants to attack in the future, the only thing that can gain an advantage may be to carry out air strikes. Advancing by land, Hu Biao could make the Japanese army come and go.

If history does not change, then there should be two or three years before the Japanese army fully invades Southeast Asian countries. This time should be enough for Hu Biao to train a force that is good at jungle and mountain warfare on the side of Xilong.

By training a large number of mountain combat units familiar with the jungles of the southwest, Hu Biao was able to dispatch these troops one after another before the full-scale invasion of the Japanese army. Seize the Japanese army, plunder more war resources and wealth, and throw the black pot on the head of the Japanese army.

When the Japanese army attacked cities and seized land on the front line, Hu Biao followed behind to intercept more war wealth. In this way, in addition to constantly depleting the war potential of the Japanese army, it will strengthen its own strength as much as possible and wait for the moment of great changes in the situation in the future.

In his previous life, he served on the southwest border for many years, and Hu Biao was extremely familiar with the situation around the southwest. Even if the times are different, Hu Biao believes that if he is given a little time, he and his subordinates will be able to find out the situation in the southwest and make adequate preparations in advance.

Stopping and stopping all the way, the team of only more than 400 people set out from Longzhou arrived in Xilong with as many as 6 or 700 people. The extra people were naturally bandits who were captured by Hu Biao. Most of these bandits were young and strong, and most of them worked as coolie porters.

To be able to pick up a life, these captured bandits feel very lucky. Most of them have no family to worry about. had no choice but to go up the mountain to be a bandit, and more just to be able to eat, not to be starved to death.

After being captured by Hu Biao and his party, many bandits found that Hu Biao was still in charge of food, and even ate three meals a day. Except for being a little tired of traveling every day, these young and strong bandits felt that their life after being captured was better than that of them as bandits.

Many accompanying horse team guides were also puzzled when they saw Hu Biao treating these bandit captives: "Aren't they prisoners?" Why do you want to feed them? They are all bandits, shouldn't they be innocent? ”

In the eyes of these horse team guides, Hu Biao and his entourage killed the bandits, which somewhat meant to eliminate the evil. But when dealing with these selected captives, Hu Biao showed an extremely preferential side, which always made people feel a little contradictory.

In the face of the doubts and inquiries of the horse team guide, Hu Biao did not hide it: "Most of the captives who can be selected have no way to live at the bottom of the mountain, and they are forced to choose to go into the grass as a coward out of desperation, and some are even coerced up the mountain by bandits."

In dealing with those veteran bandits, my principle is to let them pay their blood debts and blood, and to correct the law and discipline, so that more people can know how serious the consequences of being bandits are. But these people are still saved, and letting them be porters is also a punishment for them! ”

If it is an enemy, Hu Biao will unleash the fury of thunder, making him feel the majesty of the angry King Kong. Thunder in one hand and grace in the other hand are also what Hu Biao is good at. Blindly using thunder means can only make people fearful and unconvincing in the end.

Only when the means of Hades and Bodhisattvas work together will people be in awe and gratitude. This group of selected bandits were captured and brought back to Shillong for training, and Hu Biao believed that they would become good soldiers and let more people know about Hu Biao's existence.

Establishing prestige simply by means of repression will sooner or later arouse the fear and resentment of others. If there are too many people who resist, Hu Biao can't kill them all, right? It is still very necessary to properly use some bodhisattva means.

For many people living in the southwest at this moment, if they have a chance to live, who would be willing to take the risk and become bandits? What Hu Biao has to do is to fight bandits on the one hand, and find a way for the people to survive on the other.

After walking for nearly half a month, Hu Biao and his entourage finally arrived in Xilong. Looking at the location of the Xilong County Government, Qin Tianyou was also surprised and said, "Boss, this is the location of the county government?" It looks like a small town! ”

"The southwest is vast and sparsely populated, coupled with high mountains and dense forests, the population itself is not large, and the economic conditions are not very good. Let's go to the county government first! ”

Seeing the sudden appearance of the team, the security team in charge of Xillong's security soon appeared on the other side of the street. It's just that these security regiments don't look like troops at all, and even the military uniforms look extremely chaotic.

"Stop moving! The horse team rests on the spot, Lao Qin, you bring someone over to negotiate! Lao Zhu, you go over with you, and strive to receive the county government and the security team in the shortest possible time. Tonight, you should be able to get some rest! ”

"Yes!"

As Hu Biao gave the order, Qin Tianyou recruited the officers and soldiers of the second special company under his command, and quickly changed their outfits in front of those people who were watching. When everyone changed into the military uniforms in the package, the panicked officers and soldiers of the security regiment were also stunned.

The officer of the security regiment who led the team seemed to know that these people were not simple, and quickly said: "Put away all the guns, don't go off!" These people should be our new chief, and if you offend the chief, you won't even have anything to eat in the future! ”

In these days, if there is a better choice, I believe that many young people are reluctant to join the army. But for many young people in the southwest at this moment, being a soldier can carry a gun and eat public food. With guns, they have a certain ability to protect themselves.

The people, who had been frightened by the brigade and hid before, also began to look at these young people changing clothes on the street with curiosity. When a company finished changing its clothes collectively, many people also breathed a sigh of relief.

But there are still people who say: "Are these people officials and soldiers?" Why do you wear clothes that are different from those of the officers and soldiers? ”

"Who knows! Don't speak, let the officers and soldiers hear, aren't you afraid to pull you out and shoot you? Where did these officers and soldiers come from? Some time ago, I heard that a new county official is about to take office, and these people must be the new county officials, right? ”

"Alas! replaced Zhou Papi, and another Wang Papi. Thousands of miles of officials are only for money, and these people look like they are from other places. If they are like Zhou Papi, we will have even more difficult days to come. ”

The Zhou Papi in the mouth of the people is the former Xilong County official who is about to step down. The sudden transfer undoubtedly shocked the military and political officials of Shillong. The most unexpected thing is that the county official stepped down with the head of the security regiment, which is really puzzling.

When the second company of the task force quickly finished changing clothes, the platoon commander on duty quickly said: "Sir, the troops have been assembled, please instruct!" ”

"Take a break! Take the platoon as a unit, and listen to orders at any time! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Looking at the neatly organized team, the large group of people who were still waiting to watch the show quietly on the periphery, and the officers and soldiers of the security regiment who rushed to hear the news, they also couldn't understand what these people wanted to do this.

Fortunately, at this time, Qin Tianyou stepped forward with a few team members and said, "Lin Qiangke, the head of the Xilong security regiment?" I am Qin Tianyou, the new head of the security regiment in Xilong, and I was ordered to escort the new county official Zhu Chengzong to take office, and I didn't greet the whole team! Want to rebel? ”

When he said this, Zhu Chengzong, the only one who hadn't changed his clothes, was also standing beside Qin Tianyou, looking at everything in front of him with a smile. For Zhu Chengzong, it was really surprising that he could be appointed by Hu Biao as the county magistrate of Xilong.

Originally, Zhu Chengzong was in Su Province and also served as a county official in a city. It's just that when the Japanese army invaded, he originally planned to defend the heroic martyrdom, but he was knocked out and dragged away by his subordinates. After the fall of the county seat, Zhu Chengzong was also guilty and scattered his family wealth to appease the people.

After Liu Shixing, the head of the intelligence team, learned about these circumstances, he specially came forward to recruit them to the intelligence group. The condition is to kill the local Japanese garrison commander for Zhu Chengzong and avenge the dead people.

No one expected that Zhu Chengzong, who had been promoted to the head of intelligence in a place, was suddenly summoned by Hu Biao and asked him to come to the southwest to serve as a county official. Although some did not want to be an official, Zhu Chengzong knew that this was an opportunity.

As Liu Shixing said, if Zhu Chengzong really wants to create a party of the people and be a parent official in the eyes of the people, then this is an opportunity. And his family will also be sent to the southwest in the future.

After getting on Hu Biao's boat, it is almost impossible to get off the boat again. The most important thing is that the behavior of the Nationalist Army defending the city without a fight has deeply stimulated Zhu Chengzong and made him not want to stay in the Nationalist Government anymore.

Although Xilong is remote and backward, this place is more suitable for Zhu Chengzong to display his governance talents. In addition, Hu Biao said that he would not interfere too much in government affairs. As for military affairs and public security, Qin Tianyou is in charge, and he doesn't have to worry too much.

After joining the intelligence group for a while, Zhu Chengzong knew very well that Hu Biao was very strong. The most important thing is that Zhu Chengzong can see that Hu Biao and his subordinates are extremely polite and benevolent to the people. That's why he decided to give it a try.

Knowing that the new county magistrate had arrived with the head of the security regiment, the onlookers and the officers and soldiers of the security regiment were also full of curiosity and awe. Even if there are only about 100 people around Qin Tianyou, everyone can see that these more than 100 people are elites.

On the other hand, the security group on the other side of the street seemed to have more people than Qin Tianyou's side. But many people know that the two groups really want to fight, but they are afraid that the rabble of the security group will soon collapse without a fight!

How can such a security regiment play a role in protecting the territory and the people?
