During the Republican period, banditry in China became a very serious social problem. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIn the 10 years after the Xinhai Revolution, many newspapers referred to China as a "bandit country" instead of a "Republic of China", and Shandong, Henan, Sichuan and other places were the most troubled. The Lunan region of Shandong is one of the nests of bandits.
Hugging the calf has always been a den of bandits. In May 1923, bandits led by Sun Meiyao created the "Lincheng Carjacking Case" that shocked China and the world.
Han Fuyu, chairman of Shandong Province, is an expert in suppressing bandits, and one of his main tasks in charge of Shandong is to suppress bandits. The results are impressive. However, in the face of the attack of the Japanese army, he was already too busy to take care of himself, and the bandits took the opportunity to resurrect, and there were dozens of bandits in Shandong.
The calf is now occupied by bandits. The bandits have about 1,500 people, led by a battalion commander in the Shandong army, who was originally a bandit who was co-opted.
Xu Feihu met with Han Fuyu, chairman of Shandong Province, and said that a relative of his family had been kidnapped by bandits holding calves, and he asked to bring troops to suppress the bandits.
The suppression of bandits is a military operation and must be approved by Han Fuyu. Chairman Han is currently worried about the crackdown on bandits. It's not that he doesn't have the strength to suppress bandits, but that it takes a lot of military spending and materials to suppress bandits. The Japanese army had already begun to move south from the Pingjin area, and he now had no energy or willingness to spend money to deal with the bandits. Since the Tiger Ben Regiment came out voluntarily, Chairman Han immediately agreed to his request.
Chairman Han had to call the Anti-Bandit Office and ask them to inform the local government of Zaozhuang to cooperate. was stopped by Xu Feihu, who was worried about leaking secrets and asked Chairman Han to give him a warrant. He's going to go long distances and hug the calves.
Since ancient times, Chairman Han knew that there would inevitably be bandits among his subordinates, so he nodded and agreed.
Xu Feihu set off with his troops overnight.
One afternoon, in a village not far from Baoqinggu, a team of relatives came out of the winding and whisking, and they carried a sedan chair on the road near Baoqianggu.
Suddenly, a group of bandits rushed up with a variety of weapons in their hands. The greeting team immediately dispersed in battle formation, firing with automatic weapons in hand. The bandits were immediately beaten, and in less than 1 minute, most of them were killed, and the rest obediently surrendered.
Xu Feihu interrogated the captives. The captives confessed that there were more than 1,200 young and strong bandits, more than 300 old and weak women, only one machine gun, two earthen cannons, and more than 100 rifles, and the rest were cold weapons such as broadswords and spears.
Xu Feihu discussed with the officers and decided to raid the bandit cottage.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, hugging the calf and the cottage. It's getting dark.
The bandits guarding the gate of the cottage saw a group of people coming up with torches under the mountain, and there was a sedan chair inside. The little leader saw that it was the person who went down the mountain today to rob his relatives and returned. He shouted, "Wang Mazi, why have you been there for so long? ”
Wang Mazi, a bandit who was held to the back with a gun, said: "After robbing the bride, we went to their village by the way and robbed their home, and the harvest was not small." ”
The little leader said, "Is the bride pretty?" ”
Wang Mazi said: "Beautiful, but it's nothing to do with you, the big boss runs out, and it won't be your turn." ”
The little boss smiled and said, "I just ask, can I take a look?" ”
Wang Mazi said: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and open the door." ”
The little leader ordered his men to open the door.
After walking into the gate, the little leader suddenly found that most of the people behind him were very unfamiliar, and he asked, "Wang Mazi, who are these people, why haven't I seen them?" ”
Xu Feihu didn't talk to him, he took out a pistol and shot it, and the members of the special combat team who followed behind also did it. They took control of the gate, and the troops behind them, receiving the signal, also rushed up.
There is no suspense in the battle, it is one-sided. Only the bandit leader with a few dozen cronies hid in the hall to resist.
Xu Feihu ordered the fire support squad of the special combat team to set up the Japanese-style 37 anti-aircraft gun. Send a loud soldier to shout and make the people inside surrender. The bandits refused to surrender, Xu Feihu ordered the artillery to be fired, and after a burst of artillery fire, all the bandits' firepower points were destroyed.
Several members of the special operations team approached the gate and threw a dozen grenades into it in succession.
Soon, a shout came from inside: "Stop fighting, the big boss is dead." We surrendered. ”
Xu Feihu handed over the dozen or so major bandit leaders captured alive to the local government, and let the old and weak women and children go. The rest of the bandits, a total of 780 people, were all imprisoned to provide free labor for the construction of the base.
Under the command of Arthur, the commander of the engineer company, a large number of barracks were soon built to settle the men and horses recruited from Jinan.
Xu Feihu began to purchase grain and other materials in large quantities and stockpile.
Berlin, Germany.
Xia Chao received Xu Feihu's report and expressed his satisfaction.
These days, Hitler had spoken to the summer court three times, and the new coal mine in the Ruhr area had been confirmed by the German mining exploration team. Hitler was very pleased and ordered the Ministry of Military Industry to supply China with the remaining weapons from the contract, as well as an additional 10 million German marks worth of ammunition.
Gustav profited handsomely from the orders for self-propelled guns that the summer court helped him get. In order to thank Xia Chao, Xia Chao was also given some machine tools and equipment for weapon processing, as well as auxiliary equipment such as generators.
In the summer, the DPRK was going to transport the equipment back to Baoqinggu and build its own arsenal.
He Fengshan reported the situation of the weapons to Chairman Chiang, who instructed that the weapons be shipped back immediately.
In the summer, he went to the Soviet Union. Together with the Chinese Embassy in the Soviet Union, the transportation issue was coordinated, and the drawings of the T34 tank were exchanged for some machine tools and special steel. Ready to be shipped back home together.
In the summer, the DPRK returned to Germany to organize arms shipments. At the end of the trip to Germany, Xia Chao called the office of the German Führer to bid farewell to Hitler.
Hitler personally answered the phone and decided to award the summer the rank of major general of the Wehrmacht. Served as the Führer's personal adviser and gave him a special password to keep in touch with Hitler at all times.
The identity of the German general of the summer dynasty gave him a lot of convenience in the future. This was something he hadn't thought of at the time.
Summer took Lina and her family together and returned to China.
At this time, it was already February 38, and the trend of the Sino-Japanese War was similar to that in history. The Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, due to the emergence of the Xia Dynasty, deviated slightly. The number of Japanese casualties was much higher than in history.
The Tiger Ben Regiment in Nanjing, after Chen Cheng's arrangement, came to Wuhan.
As soon as Xia Chao returned to China, he received an order from Chairman Jiang to go to see the driver.
