Soon, the Sheng Xu Pavilion was surrounded by the traitor Li Cai's department, and after a fierce battle, most of them were annihilated, and only more than 20 people such as Sheng Xu Pavilion and Chen Huatang escaped. They felt that their strength was weak and it was difficult for them to survive independently, so they took refuge in Wang Shantang's department to develop again. Wang Shantang also appointed him as the deputy commander in order to win over and appease Sheng Xuting, ranking second in the position, and that's how it happened. ”

After listening to Li Guangdou's words, Han Xing fell into deep thought.

Chen Ping thought for a while and said, "Battalion Commander Li, is there a plan to get rid of Sheng Xuting?" ”

Li Guangdou said: "Not yet, we are also looking for the contradiction between them, but we haven't found it yet, you two are here, just right, let's think of a way together!" ”

Han Xing said: "The ugly daughter-in-law wants to see her in-laws sooner or later, so let's go and meet Wang Shantang and fight with him first." ”

Li Guangdou said: "That's right, this is called retreating as advance, and it is also called that the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake." ”

So, Li Guangdou led Han Xing and Chen Ping to see Wang Shantang. Wang Shantang had known Han Xing and Chen Ping for a long time, and when he saw the two coming, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Which gust of wind blew the two of them, one is Commissioner Fan's big celebrity, or the director of the Industrial Bureau of the Sixth District, and the other is the deputy director, who used to be the women's director of the prefecture." I can't complain that the magpie is chirping this morning, it turns out that the distinguished guests are coming, our 29 detachment, it is really full of brilliance, blessings, why don't you come with a letter early, I can welcome you both! ”

Han Xing also bowed his hand politely and said, "Where do you dare to disturb Commander Wang, we two little people, we really don't dare to have a big driver!" ”

Chen Ping also beat the side drum and said: "We don't have anything else to do, that is, to come to engage in industrial surveys and write investigation reports. Your commander Wang commands thousands of troops and horses, where is there time to serve us! ”

"I heard that you will make a lot of money in the future," Wang Shantang said complimentingly, "in the future, we will count on the two of you for the food and drink of our 29th detachment." No matter how poor I am, I have to treat the two of you well, otherwise, how can I have the face to visit you in the future, and how can I still have the face to ask you for money and food! ”

The two sides were saying kind words, Sheng Xuting led the guards over, in fact, Han Xing didn't know Sheng Xuting, but with the personality and appearance described by Li Guangdou, he guessed it. This Sheng Xuting is in his thirties, with a horizontal face and a slight fierce light in his eyes. Several of his guards are also arrogant and domineering, unstoppable, guarding Wang Shantang, even carrying a box gun, opening the nose, especially a bald head, thin and tall, horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes, at a glance, you can know that it is by no means a good stubble.

Seeing that the soldiers of Sheng Xuting were all carrying box guns and opening their noses, Wang Shantang at this time showed a slightly worried look in his eyes. This look was captured by Han Xing.

Han Xing pretended not to know and asked, "This is ......?"

Wang Shantang said politely: "This is the new deputy commander Sheng Xuting. He also introduced Sheng Xuting: "This was originally the secretary of Commissioner Fan, and now she is Han Xing, the director of the Industrial Bureau of the Sixth Prefecture, and this lady is Chen Ping, the deputy director of the Industrial Bureau. ”

Han Xing hurriedly shook hands politely and said, "Fortunately!" Fortunately! ”

Chen Ping also politely shook hands with Sheng Xuting and said, "Excuse me!" Excuse me! ”

Although Sheng Xuting shook hands politely with Han Xing and Chen Ping on the surface, there was a slight hostility in his eyes. This kind of look, of course, was also captured by Han Xing.

Han Xing hurriedly complimented Sheng Xuting: "Commander Wang is a brave general, and of course the deputy commander is also a tiger general." It is indeed very rare to know you today. Presumably, Deputy Commander Sheng also has a glorious history, you must give me a good cheer when you have time, and I will definitely write you a report to report on your combat process. ”

Wang Shantang also hurriedly said: "Director Han is still a big pen, and his masterpieces are often published in Liaocheng's newspapers. According to Han Xing's words, as long as he is moved, he will definitely move the readers. Deputy Commander Sheng, if you have time, give Director Han Lalabei! ”

Sheng Xuting was also a little ignorant of current affairs, and boasted to Han Xing: "A while ago, I just had a big battle with the traitor Li Caidi, the traitor's imperial army, if Director Han is really interested, don't you just write about that matter." ”

"That's great, propaganda about the fight against devils is the focus of our anti-Japanese newspaper." Han Xing pretended to be happy and said.

At this time, Wang Shantang's eyes faintly revealed a kind of vinegar, and he thought to himself, okay, you Sheng Xuting, how can you steal my limelight, you haven't promoted me yet, you are blowing. What is this called, this is called noisy and dominant, you fought a good battle, and almost lost the whole army, and you still have the face to say!

Han Xing climbed up the pole and said: "I have thought of the topic, just call it "Shengxuting Gaotang vs. the Second Devil Li Cai" and I will look for you in a while, you can tell me in detail about the situation of this battle, I have written the manuscript, and I will immediately put it into the newspaper in Liaocheng." ”

Wang Shantang lowered his head and did not speak.

Han Xing's meaning was to stimulate Wang Shantang and make Wang Shantang feel dissatisfied.

Li Guangdou also realized what Han Xing meant, and immediately said to Sheng Xuting with a smile: "I didn't expect Deputy Commander Sheng to have such a high prestige in the eyes of Director Han. In the future, if there is any situation in the second battalion, if Commander Wang is really not available, I will report directly to Deputy Commander Sheng. ”

Li Guangdou is also stimulating Wang Shantang. Wang Shantang was a little embarrassed by me, but the embarrassment was quickly covered up by his laughter.

In Wang Shantang's welcome banquet, Han Xing, Chen Ping, and Li Guangdou respectively praised Sheng Xuting. Han Xing said to Sheng Xuting: "I heard that in the battle with Li Caidi, you fought with Li Caidi bare-chested. The one who can fight the Imperial Allied Army bare-chested, I see that except for the fierce general Dian Wei in the Three Kingdoms, it is you. ”

Sheng Xuting also said with the strength of wine: "Li Cai is talking about the rabbit with chicken feathers on its head - what kind of bird is it, even if the devil is here, fighting the Japanese bare-chested, then I am also unambiguous." ”

Chen Ping also touted Sheng Xuting and said: "A tall and mighty man like you is also the object of worship of our women, and I hope that when you have time, you will give more lectures to women, talk about how to fight devils, women will be willing to listen, and I will take the lead when the time comes." ”

As soon as he heard this, Sheng Xuting was even more arrogant: "Give a lecture to you women, I think forget it, it is to give a lecture to the students of Liaocheng Zheng School, if you really invite me, I have to think about it." ”

Li Guangdou then said: "Yes, isn't Deputy Commander Sheng busy, how can he have time to give lectures to those students." However, our second battalion still has to invite you to talk about some tactical issues, and you don't have to shirk when the time comes! ”

Sheng Xuting said: "What is called the building near the water to get the moon first, this is called the building near the water to get the moon first, I am just busy, since Camp Commander Li invited me, then I must go." ”

Li Guangdou's heartfelt words, it's really a hanged ghost to wipe rouge - shameless, you still tell us tactics, do you understand?

Several people took turns to fight and launched a battle of praise against Sheng Xuting, which made this kid who didn't know the height of the sky even more swaggering, he didn't know how many bowls of dry rice to eat, he simply forgot that he was a parasitic fence, and he simply forgot that Wang Shantang was not a good stubble.

After eating, Han Xing said that he and Chen Ping were going to the second camp to rest, so they came to Li Guangdou's station again, and the three of them discussed countermeasures again.

Han Xing said: "According to my observation, Wang Shantang is not so cold to Sheng Xu Pavilion, especially if there are no two tigers in one mountain, this Sheng Xu Pavilion is too strong, a little carried away, and completely forgot his position." If this goes on for a long time, Wang Shantang may not be able to tolerate Sheng Xuting. ”

Li Guangdou also said: "I think too, this Sheng Xu Pavilion is a little ignorant of the height of the sky, and even allows the guards to carry box guns with their heads open, and walk around in front of Wang Shantang, what is this called, this is called touching the tiger's buttocks, brushing the tiger's beard, it is a big taboo among bandits!" What does Wang Shantang do, Wang Shantang is a habitual bandit, suspicious by nature, how can he tolerate such sand in his eyes. ”

Chen Ping said: "What should we do now, is it to provoke conflicts between them? ”

Han Xing said: "That's right, it is to provoke contradictions between them and make them out of control. ”

Li Guangdou asked: "How to pick the specific method, have you thought about it?" ”

"Is it okay?" Han Xing muttered in their ears, and the three of them were constantly refining their opinions.

Another day passed, Wang Shantang was resting in the house, and Sheng Xuting led the guards to discuss things with Wang Shantang again. At this time, Liu Xiaosan, Wang Shantang's guard, looked at Sheng Xuting's personal guard Chen Huatang carrying a box gun, opening the head of the gun, and poked Chen Huatang's back with his finger behind Chen Huatang. This Chen Huatang is also very shrewd, he didn't even think about it, he shot at Liu Xiaosan, thanks to Liu Xiaosan's fast flash, but he hit his arm, and the blood flowed out at once.

As soon as the gunshots rang out, dozens of Wang Shantang's guards rushed in, and one by one the box guns were aimed at Sheng Xuting and several of his guards.

This scared Wang Shantang a lot, and it also scared Sheng Xuting. What is it called in Wang Shantang's heart, this is called beating the dog and bullying the master, I don't care if you go off fire or not, if the muzzle of the gun is crooked again, not only Liu Xiaosan is finished, but his life may also be over.

Sheng Xuting was also frightened, although it was a gun that went off, but it was not a place that went off, although the guards were good at wandering around with their noses open, but you have to see what kind of place this is, but this is in front of Wang Shantang, isn't this a bare crowd - nothing to look for! blamed themselves for being too careless, which caused today's catastrophe.

Wang Shantang hesitated slightly, immediately smiled, and said to the guards: "Put away the guns, what are you doing, your own people." ”

Only then did the guards put away their guns and walked out, and two people bandaged Liu Xiaosan's wounds.

Wang Shantang said softly and hard to Sheng Xuting again: "Deputy Commander Sheng, is it necessary to ask the guards to open their noses all day long!" "The next sentence means that my guards haven't opened their noses yet, and your guards are walking around me with their noses open three times and twice, what do you want to do?
