Huangsi Village is located 18 kilometers northwest of Xingtai County, at the edge of the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain, and is a typical mountain pass into Taihang Mountain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The highway from Xingtai to Xiyang, Shanxi Province passes through Huangsi Village, thus entering the Taihang Mountains.

It is said that Huangsi Village is an ancient village in the previous year, and its original name was Huangsidian. When Emperor Yuan Shun fled north, he lived in the Yuquan Temple in the village, and the Yuquan Temple was renamed the Imperial Temple, and the village was renamed Huangsi Village.

Due to its important geographical location, Huangsi Village has naturally become a market center in the surrounding hilly area, and the population is dense. The village is a strip-shaped square with four antique gates, all of which are topped by attics dedicated to various gods. Entering the village, the east, west, north and south cross streets, small streets and alleys are all laid out in this way, which is very regular.

The dwellings in Huangsi Village are also very distinctive, they are all made of local red stone walls, and even use red stone slabs as roofs, the buildings are basically courtyard houses, and there are also many sets of courtyards, which is a typical red stone village.

The most precious thing is that there is water in Huangsi Village.

There are mountain springs everywhere here, and the jade spring pond in front of the imperial temple in the village has a fine sand cushion bottom, which is clear and transparent, which can not only provide more than 1,000 people with water, but also water the ground. The water flowing from Gyokusen Pond forms the Gyokusen River, which flows from west to east, and is covered with bridges built since ancient times.

Due to the guard of the Taihang Mountain Pass, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were successively built the Imperial Temple Inspection Division, the Garrison Autumn Prevention Office and the Observation Line, and placed troops to defend. Located in front of the Yuquan Temple, the observation line yamen, the court, the hall, the pavilion, the house are all ready, the front is the Taiping Building, the wing is the barracks, it is very suitable for the garrison.

Such a good place is now occupied by the defeated Yue Peng's troops.

Huangsi Village is almost 40 kilometers away from the town of Shui Shui.

The 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army made such a big move in Pulshui Town, but Yue Peng, who was hiding in Huangsi Village, didn't know it!

Yue Peng was a company commander of the 53rd Army of the Northeast Army, and once fought with devils outside the Great Wall. When the Japanese army attacked Shijiazhuang, the defenders along the Pinghan Road retreated when they heard the wind, not to mention the Northeast Army, and it was chaotic at once, except for the Communist Party member Lu Zhengcao who refused to carry out the retreat order and stayed in Jizhong to persist in the War of Resistance, the other troops were basically army not controlling divisions, divisions not controlling brigades, and brigades not controlling regiments.

It's not terrible to lose a battle, it's a fear that the troops will break up after defeating a battle!

The Northeast Army is a warlord army in its bones, and since Zhang Zuolin pulled the pole, there has been no clear goal of struggle, let alone ideals. In addition, during the Republican period, China never achieved real reunification, and due to the warlord division and the weakness and incompetence of the central power, many localities, many people, and the army did not have a high degree of identification with the country. This is also one of the main reasons why there were so many traitors and puppet soldiers during the Anti-Japanese War.

In an army like the Northeast Army, soldiers pay attention to being soldiers to eat food, carry guns and get paid, what national righteousness and the survival of the country, it cannot be said that they do not know, but compared with life, it is obviously more important to live themselves.

Now, Zhang Dashuai has long been blown up by the Japanese, and the young marshal has been imprisoned by Chairman Chiang, and the Northeast Army, which originally lacked ideals, goals, and souls, has become a plate of scattered sand.

Yue Peng took the initiative to break away from the establishment during the retreat and fled to Huangsi Village.

The reason why he took the initiative to break away from the establishment was because Yue Peng didn't know where to withdraw to the end, and he didn't know when the battle would end, let alone really die on the battlefield of resistance against Japan!

After retreating to Huangsi Village, seeing that the Japanese army was busy pursuing southward along the Pinghan Road, and did not care about cleaning up these stragglers, Yue Peng was relieved, and stationed at the Yamen of the observation line in Huangsi Village, and began to collect grain and distribute money, and forced the merchants and rich people in Huangsi Village to donate money and property with guns, which was called supporting the War of Resistance!

Meet his big-headed ghost!

If Yue Peng really has the heart to resist the war, the little devil is in Xingtai City, on the Pinghan Railway Line, and in the stronghold of the traffic arteries around Xingtai City, and he is not expected to fight many beautiful battles and eliminate how many devils, can he go and shoot cold? Is it okay to kill a devil sentry?

It's a pity that Yue Peng doesn't care about fighting devils, he is collecting grain and distributing money in Huangsi Village, and he is nourishing and moisturizing, where will he remember the matter of fighting devils!

The problem is that Yue Peng and his gang are routs, and they are not the kind of routs who were defeated and disabled after a fierce battle with the Japanese army, they did not fight fiercely with the Japanese army at all, they fled when they saw the Japanese opportunity in the sky, and took the initiative to break away from the 53rd Army's rout, so they naturally had the intention of occupying the mountain as a king and being a bandit.

Yue Peng, who has the intention of being a bandit, is in a state of anarchy in this area for the time being, Yue Peng naturally does whatever he wants, and the roadblock robbery and the like are all playing the remaining tricks, that is, the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law of any family who you like, then you should rob it. Otherwise, how can they be worthy of the names of "rout" and "bandit"?

It's a good Huangsi Village, the little devils haven't called yet, and the ancestor Yue Peng and his gang are ruined.

With the territory of Huangsi Village, and the military expenses and rations obtained from the requisition and distribution of grain, the problems of food and military pay were temporarily solved, and Yue Peng's team began to expand gradually. This expansion was not the result of Yue Peng's active conscription expansion, but the stragglers of the Northeast Army who were scattered in the surrounding areas moved bravely and slowly gathered together. In addition, some local ruffians and hooligans saw that Yue Peng had soldiers and guns, and they also came to lick the fat ditch, Yue Peng's team expanded in a short period of time, from the original 100 people he brought to 300 people.

The most important thing is that the Northeast Army is well equipped, and everyone in the defeated army has guns and bullets, and outsiders don't know that just looking at Yue Peng's troops has guns, they still think how strong the combat effectiveness of his troops is!

The Pulp Water Anti-Japanese Guerrillas and the Xingtai Independent Battalion, which were just established and had a relationship with the little devils, the soldiers were wearing ordinary people's clothes, and many of them didn't have guns!

If the two are compared, it is natural that the strength of Yue Peng's department is stronger than that of the Pulp Water Guerrillas and the Xingtai Independent Battalion. It's a pity that the Pulp Water Guerrillas and the Xingtai Independent Battalion dare to follow the Eighth Route Army and the little devils, Yue Peng doesn't have that egg!

Last time, the first column of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla of the Eighteenth Group Army sent people to talk to Yue Peng and wanted to recruit him. Yue Peng scoffed, would he go to be a poor eight-roader?

Yue Peng is different from other small groups of routs, he has a plan.

Yue Peng had actually calculated a long time ago, the Japanese army occupied the three eastern provinces, North China, Shanghai and Nanjing, and saw that it was a victory! If the Japanese army wanted to attack him, he would directly surrender and follow the imperial army to eat food.

Historically, Yue Peng defected to the enemy as a puppet army in April.

After the four scouts of the 129th Division were killed by the Red Gun Society, our army sent people to negotiate with the Red Gun Society to no avail, and after the victory of the anti-Nine Road siege in the southeast of Shanxi, the 129th Division sent the main force to Taihang, and captured An Qingshan, the head of the Red Gun Society of Xingtai County, located in Luluo Town, and other six people were shot in public trial, and then swept all the bandits and routs entrenched in the western mountains of Xingtai, or reorganized or eliminated, like Shen Guodong and Li Laoben were killed, only Yue Peng led the remnants to flee to Xingtai County as a puppet army.

Now that Xiao Siming is here, leading the team eastward, and by the way, he wants to help the local government in Xingtai sweep through the Xingxi Mountains, Yue Peng just wants to be a puppet army, I'm afraid he won't have that chance!

This was the war years, and the Japanese army was so close to Huangsi Village, Yue Peng had the heart to be a puppet army, and he was unwilling to be surrounded by the Japanese army in a daze. Because the shells and bullets don't have long eyes, and the little devil's shells and bullets hit so accurately, if the Japanese really touched it in the middle of the night, he might be hit before he could return to obedience.

Therefore, Yue Peng, who had fought devils outside the Great Wall, didn't look at the team composed of routs, and the sentry posts were arranged without ambiguity, that is, there were also squad sentries, even sentry posts, and mobile sentry posts at night, in order to prevent the devils from suddenly sneaking attack.

Northeast people love to drink!

That night, Yue Peng and several of his backbones drank and fell asleep drunk.

At dawn, thirsty and urgent, Yue Peng woke up, got out of bed and stood outside the door, took out the guy to pee, and was about to turn around and go back to the room to pour water to drink, when he heard a faint gunshot at the entrance of the village.

Yue Peng's drunkenness woke up immediately, and he immediately realized that this was a hidden sentry and shot the police, there was a situation!

This guy is very ghostly, he retracted into the house after a while, reached out and felt the pistol pressed under the pillow, pulled the bolt, pushed the bullet to load, jumped to the door, slammed and shot three times in a row, shouted "There is a situation, copy the guy, go to the room", and then jumped back into the house again, and stuffed the gold and silver treasures looted in the area of Huangsi Village during this time into his purse, carried it on his back, jumped into the courtyard, and ordered the two guards who had woken up to move the ladder to the house to see what the situation was.

The two guards went up the ladder to the roof and looked at it, and reported that it was the Eighth Route Army!

As soon as he heard that it was the Eighth Route Army, Yue Peng didn't panic, and he was still energetic, so he immediately shouted in his voice: "Assemble ******, go to the room, set up the machine gun, beat Lao Tzu hard, and teach this poor Eighth Route a lesson!" ”

If Yue Peng knew that it was the Eighth Route Army that had come down from Pingxingguan, attacked and occupied Yuxian and Shouyang, destroyed Taiyuan Airport, and killed the captain of the Japanese army, I am afraid he would not dare to say this.

Again, the ignorant are fearless!

The Eighth Route Army came so quickly, and before the routs who had just been awakened by Yue Peng's gunfire and shouting went up to the house and set up machine guns, the gate of the observation platform yamen where Yue Peng's troops were stationed was opened, and a group of Eighth Route Army rushed into the courtyard, and several light machine guns opened fire at the same time, so frightened that the routs who were about to go to the room climbed to the ground.

Under the cover of machine guns, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army set up ladders and rushed to the highest roof in the courtyard.

An officer of the Eighth Route Army walked into the courtyard, waved his hand, and all the machine guns stopped firing, and then said in a deep voice: "We are the eastward advance brigade of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army." Which one is Company Commander Yue Pengyue, please come out and speak! (To be continued.) )
