Chapter 69: The Troop Mutiny (Part I)

Five and a half minutes.

In the tent temporarily set up by the reinforced brigade, Zhang Kun called several officers he trusted over to him.

"The brothers here are all our own brothers, you dig out your hearts and tell me, how do I Zhang Kun treat you on weekdays? Those things are pretty authentic, aren't they? Zhang Kun looked at several officers in the tent and asked.

Zhang Kun knew very well in his heart that it was not his own ability that the Japanese had made him value in the past, but the 5,000 men and horses under his command.

These 5,000 people are of great significance to the Japanese, and although their own troops are soft in the war, it is not a trivial matter to suppress the common people.

The Japanese did not have enough troops and needed to fight south, so the occupied cities must be managed by a large number of puppet troops.

I'm a fart, a person in the past Japanese can give a lieutenant general rank for nothing?

The key is that you have to have someone under your hands, and there is no one under your hands who can take care of you. Think beautifully.

It was easy for Zhang Kun to take refuge with the Japanese by himself, and he could slip away with a smear of oil on the soles of his feet.

But it was not easy to bring all the 5,000 warriors under his command.

Because many of the more than 5,000 soldiers lived in the northeast, the Japanese burned and plundered all kinds of evil after occupying the three eastern provinces, and owed a lot of blood debts.

Therefore, there are many of them who have a common enmity with the Kwantung Army, and when they see the Japanese, they want to tear them to pieces, let alone surrender.

Zhang Kun considered that if this matter was not handled well, his subordinates might rebel, and maybe he would be left in the hands of these people.

So he asked some of his cronies to discuss countermeasures and say hello to them in advance.

Zhang Kun is completely sure of convincing these people in front of him.

Usually, he also pays attention to cultivating feelings, and feelings are nothing more than being smashed with money.

Zhang Kun is especially good at winning people's hearts, and when he sees something going on at an officer's house, he generously helps him.

Usually giving small favors has won him a lot of popularity, and there are a group of stupid brothers who are willing to go to the soup for him.

Another point is that a considerable number of the people in the reinforced brigade were bandits, and they were all recruited into the army later.

How can the ruffians in these bandits be so easy to change, they have only one creed in their hearts, if they have milk, they are mothers.

Wherever there is money and where there is a lot of benefit, they will pounce on it.

If they hadn't been forced by the officials and soldiers to do it, they wouldn't have surrendered and accepted Zhao'an.

"Big brother, do you have any ideas, don't think too much, just give an order, brother, I will definitely support big brother without saying a word!"

It was Li Scar who spoke, who used to be the big boss among the bandits, and after being recruited, he became a lieutenant colonel and regiment commander.

Li Scar's eyes are as many as the pockmarks on his face, in fact, he has already figured out Zhang Kun thoroughly.

Knowing that Zhang Kun's calf is not a good bird, he usually pretends to be a good person, and does some dirty things behind his back, he is a full scheming boy.

Li Scar doesn't care so much, as long as there are full interests in front of him, he will do whatever others let him do.

"Yes, Commander, what are you talking about? If you say anything, my brother will do it immediately. ”

"That's right, just say it, teacher, the brothers will never say a word."

Hearing Zhang Kun's question, several officers also echoed to show their loyalty.

Zhang Kun nodded very helpfully, but instantly changed to a helpless look and said to a few people: "Brothers, do you know who the above sent us to fight this time? ”

"Aren't you Japanese?" Hearing Zhang Kun's question, Li Scar replied beside him.

"Yes, it's good to be Japanese, but do you know how many Kwantung Army we have in front of us?" Zhang Kun then asked again.

Li Scar scratched his head and replied with a smile: "I really don't know this, I didn't see the enemy report from above." ”

In fact, Zhang Kun didn't know how many soldiers there were in the Kwantung Army, so he said nonsense: "According to the information I have received, the Kwantung Army's three infantry wings, two artillery squadrons, and a tank brigade of nearly 10,000 people are stationed nearby, and they also have the fire support of air force aircraft. The strength should not be underestimated, this battle is difficult, alas! ”

"Huh? So many Japanese! So how is this battle fought? Didn't Shangfeng let the brothers of our independent brigade be cannon fodder? Teachers! ”

Zhang Kun's words really startled Li Scar.

Li Scaryu originally thought that there was only a small group of Japanese troops harassing him, and he sent a large force of the Independent Brigade to deter the Japanese army.

I didn't expect it to be a real fight, so he didn't do it.

How can they be the opponents of the Kwantung Army, I'm afraid it's not enough for people to stuff their teeth.

Hearing Zhang Kun say this, a colonel leaned over to lower his voice and asked cryptically: "Commander, then what do you mean we..."

"That's right, the Japanese have already sent someone to talk to me, and the price offered is very good. As long as we pass, we will give an army formation. As for the military rank, it will be promoted one level on the original basis, and the major will be promoted to lieutenant colonel, the lieutenant colonel will be promoted to colonel, and the colonel will be promoted to major general. What do you think? ”

After speaking, Zhang Kun stared at a few people, wanting to see what their attitudes were.

"Salute to Commander Zhang of our security army!"

Li Scar's heart was moved when he heard this, he is now the regiment commander, and he will be the brigade commander if he is promoted to another level.

This is a great thing, the fool doesn't want to be promoted and make a fortune, of course he is the first to stand up and support it.

Several other officers did not hesitate, Zhang Kun was kind to them, and it was time to repay the favor.

Under the leadership of Li Scar, they also expressed their attitudes.

"Resolutely support the leadership of Commander Zhang!"

"Everything is at the discretion of the commander."

"Well, okay, thank you, brothers. Now it is imperative to analyze which of the officers of the Independent Brigade are reliable and which are not. ”

Seeing that the effect he expected had been achieved, Zhang Kun was very satisfied, and the blood he usually produced was also rewarded.

The next thing to do is to exclude dissidents, and only to take special measures against those who do not support them.

At this time, we must not be soft-hearted, and we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

"The second battalion commander of the third regiment is not good, he is from Harbin, I heard that the devil slaughtered his whole family, and more than a dozen people are gone, he will definitely not go over. If it is not good, it will be strongly opposed, and the people under him are not good at stubble. ”

"There is also a regiment of that regiment chief of staff"

Several of Zhang Kun's cronies were discussing with a roster, and it didn't take long to sort out a list.

Without further ado, Zhang Kun intends to start acting immediately.

"Adjutant Li, you go and inform all the officers above the battalion level to come to me for a meeting immediately."

"Yes."

After Adjutant Li received the order, he immediately went to call to convey Zhang Kun's meaning.

"Company Commander Duan!"

"Yes!"

"Bring all the fighters of your guard company over and surround them outside the tent. Pick a few veterans who are good at playing pistols into the tent, and ask them to memorize the people circled on the roster, and don't leave a single live mouth when they see my signal. You are watching outside, and once the gun goes off, I will control the scene outside, and if anyone dares to make a mistake, he will be killed. ”
