Section III

"Swear to live and die with Gu Yi! Swear to advance and retreat with the National Salvation Army! Those local tyrants and inferior gentry stood up one after another and said.

"Good! With the help of Gu Yi's father and fellow villagers, why should our National Salvation Army not be able to hold Gu Yi? As for the old lady, she will sit here in front of the tent and command, and support you with Wu Bai and Commander Wu at any time. Brothers! Dear colleagues, Dear fathers and fellow villagers! It is an eventful autumn, when it is difficult, we should unite sincerely and resist foreign enemies, so that we can survive, to quote a sentence from ********* 'a spark can start a prairie fire', only by preserving our 'fire', there is hope for the restoration of the dang country, and it will not live up to the trust of the dang country, and the cultivation and trust of the white chief for many years! ”

"Together! Defend against foreign enemies! Live up to the dang country! Die to the death! ”

"Together! Defend against foreign enemies! Live up to the dang country! Die to the death! ”

……

……

The bandits stood up and shouted in unison, they were emboldening themselves and making a last-ditch effort.

After the meeting, the bandit leaders dispersed in a hurry and were busy deploying defenses, and only Xiong Renqiu and Xiong Fangling were left in the pseudo-county government, as well as a few local tyrants and inferior gentry who still had leisure to stay here. Xiao Yazhi walked to Xiong Renqiu and Xiong Fangling's side, patted Xiong Fangling's shoulder, and praised: "Good performance, Oh Fangling!" I can't imagine that a little girl at the beginning has now grown into a big girl, and she is also a promising young man and a national talent, it's not simple! With a flick of your fingers, it's just that time is too capricious, we are all old, and the future of the dang country belongs to you young people. Xiao Yazhi looked at Xiong Fangling with an appreciative look.

"Hello Sister Xiao! I also said that you are old, I haven't seen you for two years, and my sister has become more beautiful! Xiong Fangling complimented.

Hearing that she was beautiful again, Xiao Yazhi subconsciously touched her head, looked at the military uniform she was wearing, and didn't know where she was dressed beautifully? "Oh, it's rare for someone to praise the old lady for being beautiful in person? Isn't my mother old? Let's talk about it, where is the old lady more beautiful than before? ”

"My sister is more mature and feminine than before, doesn't my sister feel like she has a lot of suitors? You look at those men's eyes almost never leave you, do you say you are pretty? It can be seen that my sister's beauty has reached the point of being radiant and brightening the eyes of a blind man, doesn't my sister still say that she is not beautiful? Xiong Fangling picked up good words.

"Just your sweet mouth! It is worthy of being a person who has read books outside and seen the world, and the mountain village aunt is different, I want your father to take you to Dragon City, when I first saw you, I was still a yellow-haired girl, very immature, but now I have a spring flower, the water is tender, if the old lady is a man, I also want to take a bite, which is our outdated woman can compare? Xiao Yazhi was half boastful and half angry, obviously jealous of Xiong Fangling's young and beautiful appearance.

Of course, Xiong Renqiu heard the sound of the strings, and also imagined the sentimentality of the old girl, worried that his daughter was too exposed and public, and it would not be good to offend this top boss, the young man, who was open-mouthed, and was prone to problems, hurriedly continued: "The commissioner is modest, although the little girl is not bad-looking, and has studied outside for a few years, after all, she still grew up in a poor and remote environment, how can she compare with the noble beauty of the commissioner?" Far from it. Fang Ling, you don't know how many handsome guys have fallen under your sister's pomegranate skirt! Not to mention, in recent years, there has been a deputy commander named Bai Yesheng, who looks handsome like Pan An, is too beautiful, loves your sister is dead and alive, and a few days ago, Chen Bing of Nanliang, Commander Chen has long coveted your sister, this kid doesn't even want the country for your sister, it can be seen that ......"

"Stop! County Magistrate Xiong, Chen Bing is not a person, don't mention this person! Chen Bing: What is he? What a bastard! Xiong Renqiu originally wanted to use these two people to tout Xiao Yazhi and put a high hat on her, but he didn't expect that which pot would not be opened, and the horse's fart slapped on the horse's leg, which angered Xiao Yazhi, and the horse's fart was not as good as his daughter's.

Xiong Fangling is not a fool, she has heard about Xiao Yazhi and Bai Yesheng and Chen Bing, of course she knows that this Chen Bing is not a good thing, in terms of character and appearance, it is comparable to Bai Yesheng, whom Xiao Yazhi loves? No wonder she's upset. Xiong Fangling grabbed Xiao Yazhi's arm and said coquettishly: "Sister, don't pay attention to these men!" Let's talk about the two sisters, just talk about my sister's handsome guy Bai Yesheng, right? Little sister, I've been back for so long, and I haven't seen a few eye-catching, decent men, little sister, I'm annoyed to death, talk about handsome guys, sister is also good to satisfy your cravings......" Xiong Fangling pulled Xiao Yazhi up and walked away with a smile, which can be regarded as relieving her father.

Speaking of which, a few people have to mention: One is Yang Bin, the commander-in-chief of the bandit Southern Hunan National Salvation Army who appeared in Guyi Town, who is it? This Yang Bin was originally a bandit in the Hunan passage area, rampant in the Hunan and Guizhou areas for many years, this time he was beaten by the People's Liberation Army in Hunan and had nowhere to hide, so he ran to Beijiang to take refuge. The second person is the so-called Fan Fan, the director of the Political Work Department. Department of Political Affairs? What is the Department of Political Affairs? What for? It turned out that long before the People's Liberation Army marched into Guangxi, in order to keep the foundation of the Gui system unshakable, Bai Chongxi had deployed some capable generals to Dayao Mountain, Damiao Mountain, Beijiang and other strategically important nodes in advance, trying to build the so-called "counteroffensive and recovery" iron triangle in northern Guangxi, and stationed some spies such as the Secret Bureau and the Military Command to strengthen the encirclement and control of the bandit armament. The third person is Xiong Renqiu's daughter Xiong Fangling. Xiong Fangling, like other girls in the mountains, was originally an innocent, cute, and dreamy person. , dreaming of one day being able to go out of the mountains and go to the outside world to have a look, fortunately, Abba Xiong Renqiu, who was the deputy county magistrate of the National Government at the time, had the right to take the opportunity of recruiting the backbone elements of the Youth Army in the provincial capital and sent them to Nanning to study. Due to his excellent academic performance, he was sent to Shijiazhuang for further study. Just when Xiong Fangling's future was bright, how could she encounter the Pingjin Campaign, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the Kuomintang was defeated, Xiong Renqiu was worried about the safety of his daughter, and urgently ordered Xiong Fangling to withdraw to his hometown Beijiang. I thought that Guangxi was the base camp of the Gui system, so it would naturally be safer, but I didn't expect that the People's Liberation Army would be overwhelmed, and it would soon hit Guangxi and seize power. Xiong Renqiu, who was unwilling, of course would not tolerate the former "Tubaozi" turning over and taking power, so he gathered the local tyrants and inferior gentry who had the same idea in Beijiang, and with the support of the bandits, set up the so-called National Salvation Committee and the puppet county government, he served as the puppet county magistrate, and his daughter served as the president of the Revival Association. Xiong Fangling has been educated and trained by the Kuomintang military command for many years, and has become an out-and-out fanggong diehard, and as the president of the Fuxing Association, she is in collusion with her father and has a spring and autumn dream of "counterattacking and recovering the country".

Therefore, don't look at Xiong Fangling's age, but she is already the backbone of the Beijiang puppet regime, and she is very tough!

After the meeting, the bandit departments in Guyi Town entered a tense deployment stage, and the northern, central, and southern places were heavily guarded, as if facing a great enemy, all roads in and out of Guyi were blocked, controlled, and the personnel passing by were checked very tightly, so that even a bird could not fly in.

In order to supervise the defense of various defense areas in Guyi, Xiao Yazhi also appointed Yang Bin, commander-in-chief of the National Salvation Army in southern Hunan, as a plenipotentiary to inspect the defense work of Guyi.

Xiao Yazhi was still not at ease, and sent Ruan Shaoxiong, Liu Gang, and even Chen Xin and others everywhere to inquire about the progress of the People's Liberation Army's attack on Beijiang, so as to have a clear idea of it, and to measure the advance and retreat, gains and losses.

Xiao Yazhi no longer cares about anything, she has reached this point, even if she fights for the light and uses up her last capital, she will not give up, she wants to keep the last "happy land" of Beijiang. She sent all the personnel out for another purpose, that is, to use this opportunity to get in touch with the "pangolin" as soon as possible, she believes that the "pangolin" also needs her very much at this moment, and perhaps, this is also the last cooperation in their lives. Chen Xin is the person who holds the key secrets between them, and naturally becomes the bridge to structure this "cooperation".
