The participants in the Red Gun Meeting were all local farmers, and most of them were illiterate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is really literate, if you join an organization like the Red Gun Society, it is a far away.

Speaking to these deceived Red Gun Congregations, it is not enough to talk about big things in a polite way, nor can it be purely scared, not only to be reasonable, but also to make them clear about the consequences of going on like this!

This matter was originally the matter of political commissar Wang Lushui, but although Wang Lushui was all-round in civil and military affairs, he had no understanding of the Red Gun Society and other sects that were prevalent in the north, so he forced Xiao Siming to talk about it!

It's a duck catch!

Xiao Siming stood in front of the Red Gun Society congregation with his hands behind his back, and his eyes swept around the faces of the congregation before he spoke.

Xiao Siming spoke very shortly, and only said three meanings.

The first meaning is that the Red Gun Society is a group of people who have organized themselves and have a glorious history in the struggle against oppression. In the 24 years of the Great Rebellion of the Republic of China, the Communists guided the Red Gun Society in the South Hebei Plain to resist the warlords and oppression. It can be said that the Red Gun Society on the South Hebei Plain was once advanced and revolutionary!

The second meaning is that now that the all-out War of Resistance has broken out, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have gone to the national disaster together to unite to resist Japan, the Eighth Route Army has established an anti-Japanese base in Taihang Mountain, the anti-Japanese democratic government of Xingtai County has also been established, whether it is the Red Gun Society or the Dadao Society, all walks of life, all strata, and all groups should unite to resist the war under the banner of unity and resistance against Japan, and under the organization and leadership of the anti-Japanese democratic government. Whoever opposes the united war of resistance is the enemy of the whole nation, and the whole nation will fight against it!

The second meaning is that the Japanese army invaded China and the great enemy is at present, and it is regrettable that the Red Gun Society did not follow the trend of history, followed the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army, mobilized the people to unite to resist Japan, did not go to Pinghan Road to fight guerrillas, and fought hard with the little devils, but was instigated and killed by others to kill the investigators of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, committing a great crime! Today, we dare to gather people to the Eighth Route Army's base in Shuichuan to encircle the Provisional Government of Xingtai County to Resist Japan and Save the Country, and it is doing things that are painful to those who are close to each other, to sabotage unity and resistance against Japan, and to launch attacks and provocations against the Eighth Route Army, and we must resolutely crack down on them, and the Eighth Route Army will never allow the existence of such a reactionary and ignorant organization, which has degenerated and degenerated, and betrayed its glorious history!

After speaking, Xiao Siming waved his hand and shouted murderously: "Arrest them all!" Dare to resist and shoot on the spot! ”

The company of guards and the troops who arrived later rushed up and arrested all the congregants of the Red Gun Society, and confiscated the apricot yellow flags and red tassel guns.

Xiao Siming doesn't have to worry about the next thing, that's Wang Lushui, Gao *Yan, and Li Mengping. In the afternoon, the political work cadres of the advance brigade and the cadres of the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation all went to talk and do work with these Red Gun Society congregants, dug out the leaders of the three leading sub-regiments, and also figured out the murderers who killed several scouts of the 129th Division.

These congregations are all deceived peasants, and the political workers of the advance brigade have learned to engage in the campaign of complaining about grievances since the beginning of the training in Yuxian County, and they have done persuasion and education as soon as they get started, and the effect is better than that of the cadres of the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government led by Li Mengping and Li Mengping. In the afternoon, the congregants of the Red Gun Society, who had originally murderously broken into Pulp Water Town to grab the territory, were guided by the cadres of the Eighth Route Army to start complaining, and there was a cry in the courtyard. In the end, among the 200 or so Red Gun Congregation, 35 young men signed up for the army and were sent directly to the recruit team for training. Others were educated and put away.

Taking advantage of the large number of people in Paste Town, a mass meeting was held on the spot, announcing the crimes of the leaders of the three Red Gun Society sub-regiments and the murderers of the investigators of the Eighth Route Army, and issued a proclamation in the name of the Xingtai County Anti-Japanese Provisional Government for National Salvation, and directly shot them!

The villagers who rushed to the big market in Pulp Water Town were all shaken!

Just when Wang Lushui, Gao *yan, and Li Mengping were doing ideological work for the captured Red Gun congregation in Zhishui Town, Xiao Siming ordered Zheng Xiuchuan, deputy chief of staff and chief of operations, to lead a platoon of the first battalion, one platoon of the second battalion, and one platoon of the third battalion, to strengthen an artillery platoon and a heavy machine gun platoon, interrupt the rest, and go straight to Luluo Town, where the headquarters of the Red Gun Society in Xingtai County is entrenched.

Xiao Siming's order is very simple, the first evil must be dealt with, and the threat will never be asked, and the leaders of the Red Gun Society, An Qingshan, Lu Jiwu, Cao Guizhi and others, will be arrested and shot in Shishui Town!

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Siming, Huang Hua, and Hu Qingyun respectively led the first, second, and third battalions, each battalion strengthened the artillery, engineers, and heavy machine gunners, and divided them into three battle groups, each of which had a battalion of cadres and a battalion of cadres, and under the leadership of the guides sent by Gao Yan and Li Mengping, they pounced on the 53rd Army of the Northeast Army, which was in confrontation with the Red Lance, Wu Jinduo, the 53rd Army of the Northeast Army, Liu Jiu, Liu Zengyi, and Yue Peng, who were entrenched in Longmen River.

When the Northeast Army withdrew southward, except for a regiment led by Lu Zhengcao that refused to retreat south and stayed in Jizhong to fight guerrillas, many other troops were scattered, and there were as many as a dozen units in the mountainous areas west of Xingtai. In order to survive, these routed soldiers were separated from the establishment and had no provisions, and in order to survive, they collected grain and distributed money in Luluochuan, Shishui River, Songjiazhuang River, General's Tomb River, Longmen River and other places, which made the people's resentment boil. Some of the routs even robbed the people's property, raped and adulterated women, and degenerated into bandits.

When the 18th Group Army's Northeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Column collected these routed troops in the Xingbu Mountains of Xingtai, it really adopted the method of liaison and peacemaking, and if it agreed to be recruited, it would be absorbed, and if it did not agree to be recruited, it would have no choice but to take those routed troops, because the 18th Group Army's Northeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla First Column had no strength.

The First Column of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Formation of the 18th Group Army incorporated the Tian Fuyi Division and Xu Yupu Division in the Xingxi area, and also incorporated some sporadic defeated troops operating in the Ban Wandering unit. A total of about 600 people were recruited, and three detachments and one special service battalion were formed. With such a rout of troops with no combat effectiveness, Zhang Tingshu and Zhang Zhengfang already felt that they had soldiers at hand, and they couldn't stand the discipline of the Eighth Route Army, and they had a conflict with Zhou Huan, and finally ended up being reorganized by the Sichuan Army.

Xiao Siming dispatched the main force to fight these three groups of routs with a number of around two or three hundred people, and they were also recruited. Because after all, these defeated soldiers are soldiers who have been dispersed from the battlefield, most of them are veterans who have undergone strict training, and as long as they are educated and transformed, they may become elite soldiers of the eastward advance brigade! If they are not recruited, the outcome of these routs is nothing more than three things: being absorbed by other Eighth Route Army troops, being wiped out, and defecting to the Japanese army as traitors! There is no other way!

When these three defeated troops first arrived in the Xingxi Mountains, they were all at the company level of 100 people, but later they continued to absorb the defeated troops of various units, and their strength expanded.

Before leaving, Gao Yan suggested that the soldiers should be saluted first, and that they should first send people to talk to Wu Jinduo, Liu Jiu, and Yue Peng, and then accept the adaptation, and then solve it by force if they do not accept the adaptation.

Gao Yan is not very old, and it is not easy to have such knowledge, but he does not understand Xiao Siming and the combat effectiveness of the advance brigade.

Xiao Siming was in a hurry to advance eastward, the reason why he stopped in Pulshui Town and swept through the western mountainous area of Xingtai was that other reasons were secondary, the main reason was that the strategic location of the mountainous area in the western part of Xingtai was too important, and the main force needed to rush forward to sweep it. Otherwise, when the Japanese army sweeps on a large scale, only God knows what these routs, bandits, and huidaomen will do and what kind of harm they will cause.

Historically, the Japanese army in Xingtai dispatched a squadron on January 22 to attack the Yingtou base area in the north and south. The advance team of the 129th Division led by Zhang Xianyue commanded Han Zhen's Xingtai Anti-Japanese Independent Battalion to block the Japanese army on the South Road, and the 1st Battalion of the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division led Liu Zhenbang's anti-Japanese guerrillas to block the Japanese army on the North Road, killing a total of more than a dozen little devils, forcing the Japanese army to retreat, and defending the nascent anti-Japanese regime and the Yingtou anti-Japanese base area. But the old Red Army battalion commander Pan of the first battalion of the 772nd Regiment of our army died heroically!

During the siege of the Ninth Road in the southeast of Shanxi, 3,000 Japanese troops stationed in Xingtai were dispatched again, and went up in four routes along Longmen, Luluo, Daoqi and Shahe ferries, but were blocked by the guerrillas in western Hebei and intercepted by the masses along the way.

Now and the situation in history is different, due to the appearance of Xiao Siming, the Japanese army's losses in the Shanxi battlefield are much greater than in history, and the hatred for the Eighth Route Army is monstrous, and when the siege of the southeast of Jin is launched, the scale of the force will definitely be larger, and it will definitely advance westward from the mountainous area west of Xingtai, and the determination to attack will be greater.

There is no main force of the Eighth Route Army in this area, and if the Japanese army really attacks from here, it will really be a gap! If there are bandits, traitors, and Huidaomen to help, it will be even more dangerous.

Therefore, as soon as Xiao Siming came up, he whipped the whip on these three large-scale routs.

Wu Jinduo was angry because of the corruption of discipline, and when retreating to the west, there was a conflict with the Red Gun Society, and the Red Gun Society in Luluo Town gave an order, gathered more than 2,000 people, blocked Wu Jinduo, and the two sides were facing each other.

Liu Yun and Liu Zengyi's department were active in the Pulp Water River.

Xiao Siming, who is familiar with the history of the war, knew that the Wu Jinduo Department was later reorganized by the deputy commander of the Hebei People's Army, Qiao Mingli, under the mediation of our army. What is the outcome of Liu Yun and Liu Zengyi's department, Xiao Siming is not clear, it is estimated that they should be wiped out by our army or disappeared. The most difficult thing to deal with was Yue Pengbu, this guy was originally just a company commander, and he led a company of routs, and later took in the routs and gathered local ruffians and hooligans, and developed to two or three hundred people. Relying on its strong strength, he refused to accept the reorganization of the first column of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force of the 18th Group Army, was attacked by the troops of our 129th Division, and led the remnants to flee to Xingtai County to become a puppet army.

According to the different characteristics of the three defeated troops, Xiao Siming asked Huang Hua to lead the second battalion to solve the Wu Jinduo department, Hu Qingyun to lead the third battalion to solve Liu Jiu and Liu Zengyi's department, and personally led the first battalion to solve Yue Peng's department.

According to the plan, after defeating the Red Lance Society Headquarters entrenched in Luluo Town, and reorganizing or eliminating these three rout forces, the eastward advance brigade will also carry out a second round of operations to eliminate the three largest bandits entrenched in the Xingxi Mountains, that is, the bandit commander Shen Guodong who evolved from the Northeast Army's rout, the bandit leader Li Lao's headquarters and several other bandit forces that have transmuted the Daomen forces.
