Chapter 25: Hu Fei Descends the Mountain
Hu Fei wanted to slaughter all the devil prisoners of war but was stopped by Liu Dong, and Hu Fei's face was pulled down at that time. Originally, he was called Liu Dong and Lao Liu, but now he has also changed to Chief of Staff.
The shrewd Liu Dong of course heard Hu Fei's dissatisfaction with him, but he still talked to Hu Fei happily. Since he was the chief of staff of the cavalry brigade, of course he had to think about the troops.
"Phineas, these captives are really useful. If you kill these guys now, it's just a momentary pleasure. If we hand over so many Japanese prisoners of war to Fu Zuoyi and Yan Xishan, how much benefit can we get? It's really not good, we can still sell these prisoners of war to the Japanese in exchange for their machine guns and cannons! ”
"No more talk! I've decided that this is the way it will be done, and all the prisoners of war will be buried alive! Hu Fei raised his hand and directly interrupted Liu Dong.
"Oh." Liu Dong choked and rolled his eyes, but he didn't plan to give up, "Brother Fei, I think you have some opinions that need to be changed." You are now the captain of the cavalry brigade, and our brigade has three cavalry companies and two infantry companies, and at the most there are nearly 1,000 brothers. With so many people eating with you, it is your responsibility to make life better for the brethren and make our cavalry brigade stronger. ”
"Lao Liu, I know what you said." Hu Fei's face finally eased a little, and his address to Liu Dong was changed to Lao Liu, "Do you think I was merciless to the devil because of my family feud?" In fact, there is indeed this factor. You're right, I should be working for the good of my brothers. However, there are things that a gentleman does and something that he doesn't do! The devil deceived me too much, Hu Fei would never trade with the Japanese! ”
The words have already been said about this, and of course Liu Dong has no need to persuade him further. Isn't it just buried alive, he can't get used to it and can avoid it! Some of the cavalry brigades like to bury people alive. Like Ji Jinbiao, like Gou Tianxiao, like Cheng Laogang, these people are very willing to do this kind of thing.
Dealing with devil prisoners of war is not a nice thing to look at, so we won't go into details here. In short, after the matter was done, Hu Fei erected a wooden sign on the big grave, and a few words were written on it: Tomb of the Japanese Slaves.
The cavalry brigade successfully escaped the pursuit of the two infantry brigades of the devils and safely entered the mountains. In the mountainous area, the mechanization of the devils was greatly limited, and it was completely impossible for them to catch up with Hu Fei's cavalry brigade.
After Sasaki was killed, there was already a legend that the 69th Wing was likely to be withdrawn! The wing was abolished, and the infantry brigade below the wing would of course disappear with it.
There are two fates for the captains of the 69th Wing's Shaozuo Brigade in the future: one is to retire and return to China to become a reserve officer; The other is to be assigned to other units and serve as a young staff officer with no real power in another unit.
Neither option is likely to satisfy them. A few days later, news came from the top, this time that it was not just the 69th Wing that had been withdrawn, but the entire division! Even the date of the withdrawal is true, and because the news is from the division headquarters, the reliability is very high. In other words, the abolition of the 109th Division is already a definite thing!
Thinking that maybe he would return to China next month and be demobilized, and that he would have to work for his livelihood again in the future, several Shaozuo captains were extremely depressed.
After the devils got together and drank for a while, they came up with an idea. Now that returning home has become an irreversible fact, why don't they use the time before returning home to quickly reap more benefits for themselves? If they can make enough money, they won't have to worry about their future life when they return home!
That's it! The devils who thought they had a plan began to sweep the nearby villages and towns the next day. This sweep was unlike any before.
Although they have also killed people and looted things in the past, the main purpose of the sweep is still to eliminate the Chinese resistance forces. This time it's different, the devil is not so much a sweep as a robbery! They are a horde of armed robbers! Whether it is a village or a town store, as long as these devils go, they will desperately grab money!
Robbing silver trumpets, robbing shops, robbing pedestrians, as long as they can rob them, there is nothing that these devils will not rob! The news that there were two bandit troops in the devil spread so much that for a while the devil became synonymous with robbers and thieves.
Hu Fei was furious when he heard the news on the mountain! Once upon a time, he also worked as a robber, or now Hu Fei's work is a bit similar to that of a robber. He can laugh at saying that he is a robber, how can he say that a devil is also a robber? Can he be equated with a devil?
Hu Fei decided to go down the mountain, he couldn't let the devil ruin the reputation of the bandits! Of course, this time he went down the mountain not to take a large army to face to face with the devil, Hu Fei was going to secretly compete with the devil. He divided his troops into dozens of combat squads in platoons, which decided for themselves how to fight. Hu Fei only set a deadline for them to assemble somewhere in a few months, and he wanted to check the results of the battle.
Taking the initiative to disperse the troops is a taboo for soldiers, but Hu Fei does not think so. Liu Dong also tried to persuade him, but the result of persuasion was that he was persuaded by Hu Fei. The troops were divided into dozens of squads to take turns going down the mountain to find opportunities to fight, and with Hu Fei's character, he naturally would not stay on the mountain to wait for news. Hu Fei mobilized his guard platoon, and Yuan Fang protected him, and the dozens of them went down the mountain for a few days before coming back.
On this day, Hu Fei took his guard platoon down the mountain again. In the past two days, he led his troops to fight three battles against the devils, killing and wounding more than 50 enemies. This afternoon, it was time to return to the mountain as agreed.
When Hu Fei was returning with his guard platoon, he met a devil arresting someone on the way! There were dozens of young men and women tied into a string of long ropes like grasshoppers, and a dozen or so devil soldiers were escorted by them with three or eight big covers. I had only heard of devils robbing money before, but I didn't expect this group of beasts to start arresting people now!
Since you have encountered it, there is no reason not to ignore it! Hu Fei pulled out the box cannon and knocked down the devil squad leader with one shot, and then the soldiers shot the devil in a mess. Hu Fei's guard platoon is naturally relatively high-all-round, with accurate marksmanship and good skills, and is much stronger than ordinary soldiers in all aspects.
Usually, these people stay in the headquarters and rarely have the opportunity to go to the front line, but this time they went down the mountain with Hu Fei, and the soldiers of the guard platoon were very enjoyable. Shooting at the devil with a rifle and fighting with the devil with a bayonet face to face has greatly improved the technical and tactical level of the fighters while killing the enemy.
Just like now, this operation to free the hostages is very clear. The soldiers of the guard platoon each looked for a target, and each of them only fired two bullets to wipe out the devil's infantry squad!
