Seeing that Xu Rui was not moved at all, Wan Xiangyun wailed: "Xu Rui, what do you want?" ”

"What the hell do I want?" Xu Rui smiled, his sharp gaze swept over the faces of Li Motang and the other more than a hundred prisoners who were still standing in line, and then said, "I don't actually want to, and I can't do anything to you, I just want you to suffer a little bit and help you have a better memory, so that you will think twice about things in the future." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Wan Xiangyun said repeatedly: "I have a long memory, and I will definitely think twice in the future." ”

Xu Rui said abruptly: "Really? You really have a long memory, will you really think twice about it in the future? ”

"Yes, yes, what a long memory." Wan Xiangyun nodded again and again and said, "I must think twice before I act in the future." ”

Xu Rui said: "Then let me ask you, whose order did you take to send troops to attack our Feixi Independent Regiment?" ”

"Whose order was you?" Wan Xiangyun was stunned when he heard this, and said blankly, "This is not anyone's order, this is my order, of course, I also listened to the demagogy of others, so I made this decision, Commander Xu, I promise you that there will be no such thing in the future, and it will never happen again." ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "I see that you still don't understand what it means to think twice, or you owe hanging!" ”

"Captain Xu, don't, why don't you give me a hint?" Wan Xiangyun shouted, "How many hints?" ”

Looking at Wan Xiangyun's lamentation and pleading without an image there, Li Motang couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground and get in, you mother, there is really no one to stand on such a peak.

Xu Rui no longer paid attention to Wan Xiangyun, but the old god continued to wait.

After a while, Wan Xiangyun couldn't stand it again and fainted, and then let the Diamond Mountain Leopard wake up with a scoop of water.

Wan Xiangyun woke up and continued to plead, but Xu Rui still ignored it, and not long after, the outside of the courtyard suddenly began to be noisy, Li Motang and the more than 100 captives in the courtyard originally began to be drowsy, and after Leng Buding heard the noise, he woke up from his drowsiness one by one.

Li Motang listened attentively, faintly hearing the neighing of people and horses and the creaking sound of tank tracks crushing, listening to this sound, it seemed that a large army had returned, and Li Motang's heart sank suddenly.

Then the Drill Mountain Leopard ran in and reported: "Regiment Commander, Mei Xiucai and they are back!" ”

"Really? The first armored battalion is back? Xu Rui asked, "Is the work done?" ”

"Regiment commander, the 1st Armored Battalion has successfully completed its mission." As soon as Xu Rui's words fell, a voice sounded outside the door, and Mei Jiuling strode in with a body of dust.

"Successfully completed the mission?" Xu Rui said hesitantly, "How complete?" ”

Mei Jiuling said hesitantly: "None of them ran, let us arrest them all." ”

Mei Jiuling's words can't help but have an element of bragging, there are more than 20,000 people in the rout of the national army from Feixi Town, to say that no one has escaped, it is absolutely a lie, there are definitely not a few who have slipped away quietly in the middle, but most of the more than 20,000 people from the four divisions who came to Feixi Town this time were captured, but this is true.

Xu Rui was surprised: "None of them ran away, and they all let you be arrested?" ”

Mei Jiuling said: "From the army commander to the big soldiers, we were basically arrested. ”

Hearing this, Li Motang and the more than 100 captives in the courtyard were suddenly dumbfounded, and Wan Xiangyun, who was hanging on the neem tree, couldn't help but shout: "This is impossible, what are you kidding." ”

"Are you kidding?" Mei Jiuling glanced at Wan Xiangyun, turned around and shouted, "Bring people in!" ”

Someone outside the courtyard responded violently, and then there was a team of soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition escorting dozens of prisoners in, Wan Xiangyun looked at it fixedly, and was surprised to find that Xia Hanzhong, Wang Xiyuan, Liu Mingquan three army commanders, Wang Tiehan, He Kui, Wang Zhibin, Zhang Wenqing The four division commanders were all there, and the rest were brigade commanders.

This is really, the four main divisions who came to Feixi are really a pot.

"This, this, this ......" Wan Xiangyun was completely dumbfounded, just muttering and repeating, how could it be?

Li Motang was also surprised in his heart, such a result can be said to be completely beyond his expectations, he thought that the four main divisions of the 32nd Group Army would be defeated, and it was even possible that one or two would be captured, but more than 20,000 people in the four divisions were captured, but he did not expect such a result at all.

Wan Xiangyun and Li Motang were surprised, and Xia Han and the others who walked in were even more surprised.

"The main seat? Attendees? Xia Hanzhong was the first to walk in, and at a glance he saw Wan Xiangyun hanging on the neem tree, as well as Li Motang lined up in the courtyard, and then said in surprise, "You two can't ...... anything."

Speaking of this, Xia Hanzhong paused stiffly and swallowed the second half of the sentence back into his stomach, but his meaning was already very clear, why were you two also captured?

Li Motang sighed softly, the wolf fangs came too fast, and they didn't have time to evacuate at all.

Wan Xiangyun simply closed his eyes and began to pretend to be dead, just now only Li Motang and the guards and staff officers of the headquarters were there, and he didn't have any psychological burden, but now in front of these army commanders, division commanders, brigade commanders and regiment commanders, Wan Xiangyun also felt faceless, in front of these subordinates, there was such a big ugly, what else could he rely on to serve the public in the future?

Xu Rui naturally didn't take care of the mood of these captives, and asked Mei Jiuling, "What about the rest of the captives?" ”

Mei Jiuling said: "On the way to Feixi, the brothers of the cavalry battalion and the guard battalion watched over us, and our first armored battalion escorted these leaders back first. ”

"On the way to Feixi?" Xu Rui was surprised, "What, you still plan to escort them back to Meixian?" ”

"Is that not it?" Mei Jiuling said blankly, "Escort them back to Meixian County and let them dig coal, these are all free labor, and don't they all deal with prisoners of war like this?" ”

Wan Xiangyun, Li Motang and others were shocked when they heard this.

Since they were captured, Wan Xiangyun, Li Motang and others have been worried, not knowing how Xu Rui will deal with them, and when they heard Xu Rui mention this matter, they all pricked up their ears at the moment, and they all wanted to see what Xu Rui planned to do.

Xu Rui said: "That's a devil prisoner of war, after all, the 32nd Group Army is still Chinese, and it should be treated differently." ”

"Differentiated?" Mei Jiuling scratched her head and asked blankly, "Then what should I do, let them go?" ”

Xu Rui said: "You go to the necessary screening of the prisoners, the strong recruits, the veterans who have been on the battlefield, all bring back to Meixian, pick the remaining recruits, each of them will be paid two yuan for the journey, let them go, they didn't want to be soldiers, they were originally strong men who were forcibly recruited by the Kuomintang, and they just let them go home to reunite with their relatives." ”

As soon as they heard Xu Rui's words, Wan Xiangyun and other senior generals of the 32nd Group Army immediately changed their faces, Xu Rui not only wanted to incorporate their only veterans, but also released the strong men they captured!

Mei Jiuling said hesitantly: "Leader, this has been screened a long time ago. ”

"It's been screened." Xu Rui was surprised, "Then you can tell me, what is the result?" ”

Mei Jiuling replied: "There are almost three thousand people who are eligible, and the rest are not eligible. ”

"Only 3,000 people?" Xu Rui shook his head when he heard this, thinking that it had only been a long time, and the national army had already degenerated into this, with a force of 20,000 people in four divisions, only 3,000 people met the conditions for being soldiers, and the remaining 27,000 people were all weak and strong men who did not meet the requirements, how could such a force have combat effectiveness?

With such an army, it is no wonder that 20,000 people besieged the 2,000 people of the Feixi Independent Regiment, and they couldn't defeat it after three days.

With such a force, it is no wonder that when they saw the Dameishan Independent Regiment, they fled in despair, and they collapsed in the blink of an eye.

With such a force, it is no wonder that by the time of four or four years, the world's anti-fascist battlefields were all victorious one after another, and only the national army was defeated on the battlefield of Henan, Hunan and Guizhou, not to mention the loss of a large area of land, but also the loss of millions of troops! Angry, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt shouted there: It is better to feed the dogs with military aid to the Nationalist Government.

Of course, having said that, the 32nd Group Army captured so many unqualified strong men from the Dabie Mountains, which also reflected from another side how difficult the life of the common people in the Dabie Mountains was at this time, because they could not eat enough for a long time, the common people were all skinny, and even a gust of wind could blow people down.

The reason why the common people live a hard life is because the taxes and miscellaneous taxes are too heavy.

In particular, after the fall of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the Nationalist Government's tax sources were sharply depleted, and in order to feed the huge army, the huge bureaucracy, and the elite group, it could only continue to raise taxes on the common people in the Nationalist areas.

This has formed a vicious circle, the more taxes are levied, the poorer the people become, the poorer the people's physique, the more they cannot provide qualified soldiers, and the more qualified the sources of soldiers, the worse the combat effectiveness of the national army, and then it will continue to suffer defeats, the territory will continue to shrink, and then the tax sources will be further depleted, and then it can only continue to raise taxes.

In the end, there was even an extremely absurd scene in Henan, after the Huayuankou embankment burst, Henan first had a major drought for three consecutive years, and then there was a large-scale locust plague, and the people were eaten by changing their children, and the national government not only did not release grain for disaster relief, but instead continued to collect grain from Henan, and finally starved to death three million people!

In contrast, in areas under the control of communist troops, the life of the local people was much better,

Therefore, neither the Eighth Route Army in North China nor the New Fourth Army in Central China were worried about the shortage of soldiers, because of the effective improvement of their lives, some of them were young and sturdy young men who became soldiers, and it was precisely because of this that by the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Communist Party's troops could grow from 40,000 before the war to nearly 2 million!

Thinking of the hardships of the lives of the people in the Guotong area, Xu Rui said again: "In this way, let's pay ten yuan for the journey, and seeing that the New Year is approaching, let them go home and have a good New Year with their relatives." (To be continued.) )
