On the third day after Changkong designed to take revenge on Songyuan, Mayor Liu was found dead at home, and left a suicide note, which was written like this:

Liu used personal grievances to overcome the general trend of the world, assisted Sima Changkong and others to do unrighteous ways, sneaked up on Captain Songyuan, and attempted to destroy the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, and was a sinner for the country.

The first person to discover Mayor Liu's "suicide" was his son Liu Bo. On the same day, Liu Bo took the suicide note and went to the county seat to find Songyuan.

Matsubara feigned grief and led his soldiers to ask questions. Matsubara ordered his Japanese troops to build a funeral shed for Mayor Liu, and paid for a good coffin, staging a "Sino-Japanese friendship".

At the commemorative meeting, the whole town was called to participate.

"This traitor should have died a long time ago!"

"Where do the Japanese devils sing?"

"If Sima Changkong is said to be a murderer, then the murderer of twenty is not a murderer!"

……

Although the townspeople were forced by the devil's bayonet to participate in the memorial meeting of Mayor Liu, everyone hated the Japanese and these lackeys in their hearts.

Songyuan cried a handful of snot and tears, read out Mayor Liu's "suicide note", and awarded a consolation fee of 100 oceans to Mayor Liu's little wife on the spot, and Liu Bo was also appointed by Songyuan as the company commander of the Imperial Cooperative Army. Many puppet soldiers and policemen are also wiping their tears, and they are all dry thunder and no rain.

Director Zhao received Songyuan's appreciation and was promoted to the mayor of Doukou Town. After repeatedly refusing to resign, Director Zhao said: "Since the imperial army can afford me Zhao, then I will not refrain from refusing!" I will definitely govern Doukou Town well and contribute to the common prosperity of Greater East Asia. ”

In fact, Director Zhao's heart blossomed, and the mayor of the town had a lot more power than the director.

Do you know why Mayor Liu hanged himself? It's not suicide, it's homicide.

Director Zhao gave Songyuan a suggestion, sent someone to secretly kill Mayor Liu, and then put on the illusion of hanging himself, and wrote the so-called "suicide note". Songyuan took the opportunity to sing "Crying Zhou Yu", which not only got rid of this "traitor", but also won the hearts of Mayor Liu's family, and in the future, he could fool around with Mayor Liu's little wife on the grounds of appeasing his family. It was also this suggestion that the mayor of Doukou Town, which was born in Matsubara's heart.

The changes in Doukou Town are here for the time being. Besides, a few people in Changkong arrived at the boundary of Budai Town, a stone city stands proudly in the dense forest at the junction of Budai Town and Zhouwo Town, it is really solid, there seem to be three traditional characters engraved above the main gate, although He Shushan wears glasses but has good eyesight, and has culture, and Changkong said that this stone city is called "Military Attache Village".

A good military attache village, in the shade of a forest seems to be very spiritual, although it has gone through hundreds of years, but still people dare not invade, this village is also half a town as big, if it is a garrison, it can also accommodate at least two battalions of troops.

"What are you guys doing?" Seven or eight guns protruded from the city walls.

"We are ......" Gao Hu pulled his voice and was about to report to his home, but was stopped by Changkong.

"I was tired of reporting to Zhao's family, and said that his distant relatives came to visit." Changkong said.

"Distant relatives? Well, you guys wait! ”

After ten minutes, a flat-headed man, wearing a leather vest, climbed up to the top of the city and asked, "Which bastard is pretending to be my relative!" I don't know if Lao Tzu has no relatives alive! ”

Sima Changkong and Yang Rong looked at it, and it was indeed Zhao Yong. immediately shouted: "Zhao Yong, I'm Sima Changkong/Yang Rong!" ”

"What—who are you?" Zhao Yong couldn't believe that the two people standing in front of him were brothers who had been born and died in the company, he rubbed his eyes, making sure that it was not a dazzle, nor was it an illusion. Hurriedly opened the door of the village and came out to greet him.

As soon as Zhao Yong came out, he saluted Sima Changkong: "Platoon commander!" ”

"What platoon commander, now they're all battalion commanders!" Yang Rong said with a smile.

"Don't make fun of this, we are all homeless people now, and we have come to join the owner of Zhao Zhai!"

"Platoon commander, you're kidding! Hurry up and enter the village! ”

Zhao Yong invited Sima Changkong and others to the big stone house in the center of the military attache village to see what kind of furnishings were in this house:

In front of it is a gold-lettered plaque, the above four big characters "return my rivers and mountains", yes, this is the word inscribed by Yue Wangye, the commander of the Meng family's army, Meng Heng, once led the army to resist Jin here, and his great-grandfather and grandfather were all generals of Yue Wangye; A wooden seat similar to a dragon couch, on either side of the seat are two stone lions, one roaring in the sky, and the other is ready to go; There are ten seats on both sides, and behind the seats are the four heavenly kings of wind and rain.

Sima Changkong and the others sat down on the chairs in the two rows first, and introduced Gao Hu, Zhou Zhentian, He Shushan, Sima Changhai, and Sima Changyun by the way.

"Zhao Yong, I really didn't expect you to be alive! Yang Rong and I both thought that you had died at Lugou Bridge! ”

"I was seriously injured at the time, it was Lang Zhong from a village near Beiping who rescued me, took a turn in the ghost gate, and came back, it is estimated that my yang world has not been done, and the king of Hades does not dare to take me in. I raised him in that Langzhong family for more than two months, and I wanted to follow him to study medicine, and from then on he hung the pot to help the world, but he offended the bully in the village and was beaten to death, and then I killed the bully, ate the lawsuit, and fled all the way south. It is also fate, along the way I met many comrades-in-arms who lost contact with the troops. When we arrived at the boundaries of Budai Town, a downpour prevented us from traveling south, but perhaps it was providence, and we found a military attache village hidden by a forest. In addition to our comrades-in-arms, there are also refugees from all over the country, we sneaked up on one of the devil's military trains and robbed a lot of good equipment! The devils have attacked twice, but this city really can't be pierced by bullets or destroyed by cannonballs! ”

Sima Changkong asked Zhao Yong how Battalion Commander Hao died.

Zhao Yong said that Battalion Commander Hao had his left arm blown off by a devil's shell, but he still picked up a knife and fought hard with the devils who rushed up, and he was pierced by a bayonet after slashing two devils with such a body...... The commander of the spy company fought to the end and was beaten to death by the devil with the butt of his gun......

"Don't talk about those sad things! Camp Commander Hao, they have spirits in the sky and will protect us! Platoon commander, I have something to discuss with you! Zhao Yong became serious.

"What are you and I doing so much, if you have something to say, just say it."

"I have always admired the platoon commander, whether it is the friendship of brothers, or your ability, I Zhao Yong is an old man who can't lead his subordinates, if you want to grow in the future, you have to have a good master, I don't care what others think, I ask the platoon commander to sit on this central chair and lead us to fight devils and hoe traitors!"

"No, everyone here except my two younger brothers are older than me, and it is not my turn to sit in this position!"

"Sit, sit, sit!" Zhao Yong's tone was a little anxious.

He Shushan interjected and said: "Brother Zhao's words are from the bottom of his heart, Brother Sima don't shirk, now we want to resist Japan and grow stronger, and we need someone who can take the lead." ”

"I can't afford it!"

"Battalion commander, you've done a good job. I, Yang Rong, also agree with Zhao Yong's view. ”

"I don't have anything to say, since Changkong arrested me with ten people, my old Zhou thinks he has talent."

"I really can't do it anyway! I can do my best to assist the Sky Brothers! Gao Hu also came up.

But Changhai and Changyun felt embarrassed, and it was not appropriate to say anything, so they simply kept their mouths shut.

"I am not as good as Mr. in terms of learning, and I am not as good as Brother Yang in terms of calmness......"

"Don't talk about this, talk about that! Everyone thinks you can do it, if you refuse, it will not give us these brothers face! "Zhao Yong can't wait for Changkong to say any more, I'll gather my brothers now.

Changkong doesn't want to be the leader this time, but he has to be the leader. In fact, Changkong did not deliberately shirk, but the deaths of Deng Zhi and Chen Dabiao have always made him unable to let go, and he feels that he killed his two good brothers. Forget it, since they all think so highly of themselves, they can't let them down, so they have to do it first and discuss it later.

Zhao Yong gathered more than 150 brothers from the military attache village in front of the main hall, leaving only a dozen people to guard the city wall.

"Brothers, this is the Sima Changkong I often mention to you, his ability is unrivaled in our 29th Army! I will hand over this position to Sima Changkong today, and we will all follow him to fight devils! Zhao Yong said passionately, in Zhao Yong's opinion, this is more festive than marrying a daughter-in-law.

"Good!" More than 150 brothers applauded in unison, and some of them who had heard of Sima Changkong's reputation took the lead in applauding and celebrating.

"Brothers, I, Sima Changkong, was desperate to seek shelter, but I was loved by all the brothers and sat in this central position. If I do well, my brothers will support me, and if I don't do well, I won't have the face to stay here without my brothers driving me down. We have comrades-in-arms of the 29th Army, as well as displaced compatriots, we are the force to resist Japan and save the country, and we will be called "Zhongyi Society" in the future! ”

Loyal Society, why is it not called the Loyal Army? Although the more than 100 people in the military attache village have military backgrounds, they have now bid farewell to the military, and they are just ordinary people, and they are grouped together, at best, they are anti-Japanese militia groups, and the name is the army, which is inevitably too ostentatious, and it should still be developed in a low-key manner.

Since then, the Zhongyi Society has hung up the banner of "killing the enemy and protecting the country". Sima Changkong became the general leader of the Zhongyi Society and the supreme commander of this anti-Japanese force; He Shushan is a doctor, and Sima Changyun is a staff officer, and these two people are mainly responsible for formulating tactics; Yang Rong, Gao Hu, Zhao Yong, Zhou Zhentian, and Sima Changhai are the captains of teams 1 to 5 respectively.

Sima Changyun suggested that everyone give themselves a loud nickname, just like the one hundred and eight generals in the Water Margin, so that they can give themselves a strong momentum, and it is also convenient to leave a reputation on the rivers and lakes and attract more people to come and run.

He Shushan gave Sima Changkong the nickname "Saiwumu", and Sima Changkong called He Shushan "University Scholar"; As for Sima Changyun, everyone thinks it is more appropriate for him to be called "Xiao Zhongda"; Yang Rong inherited Yang Liulang's "Sirius"; Gao Hu gave himself the title of "Fuhu Arhat"; Zhao Yong is still called "Zhao Zilong".

Sima Changyun asked Zhou Zhentian to restore the name of "Tian Tai Sui", but Zhou Zhentian said that there was a long sky and he did not dare to call it "Tian".

Changkong said: "It's okay, the name is to be loud and powerful, Tian Tai Sui is still very suitable for Brother Zhou." ”

Everyone is very good to name, but Sima Changhai ...... Whether it is from the appearance or from the personality or from the martial arts, I can't find a suitable one, he looks mediocre, his temperament is relatively boring, and the martial arts are also said to be very powerful in wrestling, and then there is the strength of the two arms, and the body is also burly.

"Brother Changhai is called Big Bear's Paw, you see how thick and powerful his hands are!" Zhao Yong was half joking and half serious, because everyone really wanted to break their heads for Changhai's nickname.

"The name Bearpaw is not good! You're all loud! Changhai said to himself.

"Call it a gladiator! Changhai is very similar to the gladiators of the West. He Shushan had a flash of inspiration and continued: "Gladiators are a profession in the ancient West, a synonym for warriors, they are very brave and powerful, and they are not very similar to Changhai. ”

"This name is good, or Mr. He is well-informed!" Changyun has already called He Shushan "teacher".

The so-called "no rules do not make a circle", Zhongyi Society has set up ten merits and ten crimes, called the "Order of Meritorious Crimes":

Those who obey orders are meritorious, and those who disobey orders are guilty.

Those who kill the enemy bravely are meritorious, and those who are greedy for life and afraid of the dead are guilty.

Those who strictly abide by confidentiality are guilty, and those who betray their comrades are guilty.

Those who practice their skills diligently, and those who are lazy are guilty.

Those who recruit talents are meritorious, and those who are jealous of the capable are guilty.

The merit of helping the good and eliminating the evil, and the crime of killing the innocent.

Those who treat the people with good deeds, and those who disturb the people and hurt the people.

Those who clean themselves are meritorious, and those who drink and gamble are guilty.

The self-reliant are guilty, and the thieves are guilty.

Those who abide by their duties are meritorious, and those who derelict their duties and leave their posts are guilty.

Changkong has laid a solid foundation for the military attache village, and it can finally be corrected, as if he has forgotten two people - Sima Xiaoguo and Yang Yuxiu. Xiaoguo is easy to say, a boy, as long as there is no blood, it doesn't matter. But what about Yang Yuxiu, the girl's parents suffered a tragedy, and they were entrusted with their deathbed, why did they forget it!

Changkong decided to go back to Doukou Town alone to bring Yang Yuxiu and Sima Xiaoguo to the military attache village, He Shushan asked Changkong to take Yang Rong or Zhou Zhentian together or bring a few subordinate brothers to go, but Changkong thought that the Zhongyi Society had just been established and was not stable, so it was just a matter of picking up people, and it was okay to go by yourself, and the number of people was a big goal.

This is exactly the time to return to the tiger's mouth, I don't know the danger, Sima Changkong's catastrophe has arrived.
