Chapter 153 Apricot Yellow Flags Flying in Every Village (continued)

On March 13th, it happened to be the tenth day of the second month of the lunar calendar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Pulp Water Town is a large market town in the mountainous area of Xingxi, with dozens of merchants. In normal years, when the town of Pulp Water is fair, the villagers from ten miles and eight towns come to catch the market, and it is very lively!

It is now the period of the Anti-Japanese War, although the Japanese army has not yet entered the Shishui River, but the Japanese army occupied the Pinghan Railway, blocked the main road in the Xingtai area, and set up a stronghold on the traffic artery.

At this point, by about 10 o'clock in the morning, almost 11 o'clock in the morning, the town of Pulp Water began to be full of people, and the market began.

The 115th Division's eastward advance brigade is the standard regular army of the Eighth Route Army, all the way, not disturbing the people, not alarming the place, until the town of Pulshui camped, the vast majority of the people in Zhshui River did not know that there was an elite main force of the Eighth Route Army arrived in Pulshui Town, and at this moment they were camping in the villages around the machine in Starch Town.

The ignorant are fearless!

Due to the asymmetry of intelligence information, it is not known that the elite eastward advance brigade of the Eighth Route Army, which killed the commander of the Japanese devil unit, Ishida Jinzang, destroyed the Taiyuan airport, and successively attacked and occupied the county seat of Yuxian County and Shouyang County, arrived in Pulshui Town, and the various forces of Pulshui River, Luluo River, and General Tomb River sent people to Pulshui River as usual to inquire about the news and think of purchasing necessities, and some people found out that the Pulshui Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army and drove to Shanxi for reorganization, and the Xingtai Anti-Japanese Salvation Provisional Government in Pulshui Town became an empty shelf. I started wishful thinking.

At 12 o'clock at noon, when there were the most people in the market, a middle-aged man in his 30s, leading a donkey, arrived at the door of the county middle school where the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Provisional Government was stationed in Pulshui Town.

There were three cadres of the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation standing at the gate of the courtyard, all of whom were native to their hometowns, and when they saw the man, they immediately stopped him, and one of the cadres shouted: "Song Laozhuan, what are you doing?" Why did you take off the brand of the anti-Japanese government! Hang back! ”

Song Lao turned his neck and shouted: "You provisional government is a fake guy, hang a sign to bluff people, the ghost believes you!" Get out of the way, don't delay me coming in to feed the donkey! ”

This is to cause trouble!

The three cadres grabbed Song Lao Zhuan and went to grab the wooden sign.

Song Lao turned his head and shouted: "The provisional government has beaten people!" Come on! ”

Not to mention, Song Lao turned his voice, the voice was quite loud, and he really called a lot of fellow villagers who rushed to the market, and after a while, there were more than a dozen people scattered at the door.

Song Lao Zhuan achieved his goal, and he didn't break into the courtyard anymore, the wooden sign he was carrying on his shoulder was put on the ground, leading the donkey, and he stood there shouting: "Old and young masters, the Red Gun Club is an organization of our people!" Our Red Lance Club has fought Xingtai City and attacked several county towns on the Southern Hebei Plain, who have we old and young masters been afraid of? The words of outsiders are not credible, and the soldiers are even less credible! shouting all day long to resist Japan, levying food and distributing money, the real devils are coming, and they are jumping faster than rabbits one by one! You still have to listen to our Red Gun Club! Old and young masters, the Red Gun Society is the organization of our croppers, the local one, the most reliable! Joining the Red Gun Society, defeating the bandits, and protecting the territory and the people is the right thing! If Pulp Water Town does not join the Red Gun Club, the Red Gun Club will set foot on Pulp Water Town! ”

After shouting for a while, seeing that the onlookers didn't react, Song Lao stopped shouting, and led the donkey to the yard.

In the courtyard is not only stationed the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation, but more importantly, the headquarters of the 115th Division's Eastward Advance Brigade is located here, and the brigade leader Xiao Siming, political commissar Wang Lushui, deputy brigade leader Huang Hua, chief of staff Hu Qingyun, and director of the political department Huo Cheng are stationed inside.

The three local cadres failed to hold Song Laozhuan.

As soon as Song Laozhuan led the donkey and stepped into the gate, two sentries of the Eighth Route Army flashed out of the gate on the left and right, shouting "Stop, don't move", and the bright bayonet was on Song Laozhuan's chest.

Song Lao was stunned when he turned around, his eyes were full of horror, and he stepped back step by step.

The two soldiers of the Eighth Route Army inside the gate were the secret sentinels of the guard company of the advance brigade. It's just that the soldiers didn't know Song Laozhuan's identity, nor did they know what the Red Gun Society was for, so they didn't arrest him.

After Song Lao turned to withdraw from the door, the two soldiers of the Eighth Route Army put away their guns and retreated to the sentry post inside the gate.

If Song Lao turned around and left at this time, there might be nothing to do.

But Song Lao Zhuan came prepared, just a front station, didn't open his eyes, saw the sentry of the Eighth Route Army retreated, thinking that the Eighth Route Army had nothing to do with him, fear turned into excitement, and began to shout loudly: "The provisional government has beaten people!" Come on! "The Eighth Route Army has beaten people! Come on! ”

After a while, whistles rang out on the streets, and groups of men carrying red tassel guns swarmed to block the gate of the Xingtai Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation.

The apricot yellow flag fluttered at the door of the Xingtai Anti-Japanese Provisional Government to Save the Country!

With such a big movement, it is impossible for the cadres of the Xingtai Provisional Anti-Japanese National Salvation Government and the people of the advance brigade headquarters stationed in the courtyard not to notice it!

After Xiao Siming, Wang Lushui and others agreed with **** on the plan to fight the rout, bandits and the Red Gun Society, they hurried to rest, and prepared to wait for the troops to rest and recuperate, and then start the operation at night. I didn't expect the red gun to hit the door first, to block the gate of the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government to Save the Country!

When Li Mengping, the person in charge of the Xingtai Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation, came to find Xiao Siming, Wang Lushui, and Huang Hua, Chen Desheng, the commander of the guard company, had already come to report.

Seeing Xiao Siming, Wang Lushui, and Huang Hua, Li Mengping was not polite, and opened his mouth to say: "Song Lao of the Red Gun Society took off the sign of our government, and he had to tie the donkey to the courtyard to feed, our cadres persuaded him not to listen, but fortunately the sentry stopped him!" Unexpectedly, Song Laozhuan didn't come alone, and a group of people from the Red Gun Club blocked the gate behind! ”

The Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Democratic Government had already been announced, and Hu Zhen was the county magistrate and the head of the county's independent battalion, but at this time, the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Democratic Government and the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation had not yet been merged, and they were operating in Yingtou and Shishuichuan respectively.

After Li Mengping finished speaking, **** added: "The reason why the Red Gun Society besieged the Anti-Japanese Provisional Government to save the country was to grab land with us and fight for the hearts of the people. ”

After speaking, **** and Li Mengping both looked at Xiao Siming, Wang Lushui, Huang Hua and others, looking forward to their statement!

This is the Red Gun Society, and the congregation is a blinded crowd, which is different from dealing with those stragglers and bandits, and even more different from dealing with the Japanese puppet army and traitors.

Dealing with this kind of thing, don't say Xiao Siming, Wang Lushui and Huang Hua have no experience, and no one has expressed their stance for a while!

After a while, Wang Lushui frowned and said, "Secretary Gao, do the work and let the deceived masses disperse!" ”

Xiao Siming felt that Wang Lushui's treatment method was too soft, and after thinking about it, he said: "Political commissar, it's not enough to just do work!" They had just killed several scouts of the 129th Division a few days ago, and now they were bullying them again, obviously because someone was behind them and they were here to grab the land! Now that we have met, doing propaganda and education is only one aspect, and we have to deter them and dig out the instigators behind the scenes! When we turn around and defeat the general group of the Red Gun Society and deal with the first evil, it is estimated that the Red Gun Society in the Xingxi Mountains will also be scattered! ”

Wang Lushui thought that what Xiao Siming said made sense, so he agreed to follow Xiao Siming's method.

During the war years, work was efficient, and when it was decided, it was done immediately.

With Xiao Siming's order, several local cadres at the door got out of the way, and the secret post of the Eighth Route Army behind the door also let go. After a while, No. 1200 people holding apricot yellow flags and red tassel guns poured into the courtyard.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, these people from the Red Gun Society were dumbfounded!

The school's yard is spacious enough and the classrooms are all brick houses. At this moment, there are two neat rows of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army standing on both sides of the courtyard, everyone is standing solemnly with guns, the rifles are shining with bayonets, and in front of each squad there is a light machine gun and a grenadier canister, and the courtyard is facing the direction of the gate, and there are three heavy machine guns on a slipper, and the muzzle of the black hole is facing the congregation of the Red Gun Society who poured into the courtyard.

This is clearly a trap, as long as the officer of the Eighth Route Army gives an order, the yard will be rained with bullets and flesh and blood in an instant!

At this time, all the members of the Red Gun Club in the commission yard were all like nails under their feet, standing still on the ground, and no longer mentioning any invulnerability.

He Li Mengping led a few cadres of the Eighth Route Army out of a room and walked to the front of the Red Gun Society congregation to stand still.

I heard Li Mengping say: "Fellow villagers, everyone has seen it, right? This is the main force of our Eighth Route Army, coming down from Taihang Mountain, it is an elite unit that has fought with the little devil with bayonets and seen the real chapter, and the little devil is scared! Everybody's seen it, right? The main force of our Eighth Route Army used small steel cannons, heavy machine guns, and light machine guns of the Japanese army. Behind every gun is a life of a little devil! Such a unit is the guarantee of our unity against Japan in the Xingxi Mountains! It is very wrong for you to listen to the instigation of the leaders of the Red Gun Society to besiege our Provisional Government to Resist Japan and Save the Country! Next, I would like to invite the head of the Eighth Route Army to speak to you! ”

No one applauded, and the Red Gun Congregation was all stunned, not daring to move, not daring to run, and not daring to shout and shout, where would they applaud!

Xiao Siming walked over and stood in front of the Red Lance Congregation, with his hands behind his back, and swept his eyes over the faces of those who were already numb.

The Red Lance congregations suddenly felt as if they had a sharp blade stabbing their eyes and faces, and they involuntarily closed their eyes and hung their heads. (To be continued.) )
